EPISODE FOUR

AUDERY VALERIA GREENE'S POV

Dear Diary,

Today marks two weeks ago since I was raped by my brother, I mean step brother.

During these times I have not seen or heard from him partly because I stay locked up in my room, but I'm grateful.

I resume school again today. Mom and dad bought me a new car to keep me quiet about the issue. Its my favorite car. A royal blue 2016 cardilac.

I should be overjoyed because this is the car I had wanted for my 16th birthday and I got it seven months earlier. But I can't be happy knowing the price I had to pay.

Diary,

I get to see my friends today. I hope I can keep it together because my future depends on it.

Wish me luck.

P.s.... I wonder what my real surname is.

I closed my diary and lazily got out of bed, not in any way in a hurry to get to school. I should be excited but I was dreading it. After all the threats I had received from my step mom and dad, I was even scared to speak to myself.

Stripping out of my clothes, I got into the bathroom and took my bath, brushed my teeth and got ready for school.

I wore black shorts with a crop top and my favorite shoes to match hoping it would cheer me up a little. I let my hair loose in its natural curly form and didn't bother to apply makeup. Just my strawberry lip balm and I was good to go.

Grabbing my books and bag, I headed downstairs for breakfast. I doubled my steps as I walked past Vincent's bedroom even though I knew he would have left for college by now.

I stopped when I got to Annie's door. It was left open and i found her on phone. Probably with her boyfriend. She smiled widely at me and blew me a kiss. I sent a smile her way and began to make it down stairs

"You are not stepping out of this house dressed like that!".

I froze. My heart racing just as I reached the last step on the staircase. I looked behind me, no one. Then I looked towards the breakfast table and found my step mom and dad seated at the table along with my step brother. Vincent.

He looked like he was about to strangle someone. His hazel eyes glared at me in the most frightful way. His fingers were clenched in a fist as he sat at the table with his hair silky pulled back, dressed in his college uniform.

"And why can't she?". Annie protested as she came jogging down the stairs past me to the breakfast table. She leaned in and kissed her father's cheek then her mother before turning to sneer at her elder brother.

"Go and change now Audery". Vincent gritted through his teeth.

"Why?. She looks good in it. It actually brings out her curves". Annie protested yet again whiles my parent ignored what was going on. I just stood there. Unable to move or speak.

"Stay out of this Annie". Vincent warned his little sister.

"Vince let her be". His mom finally spoke up.

"No!". He slammed his left fist against the table, causing me to climb two steps up.

"Dude, what is your problem?. Leave her alone!". Annie screamed at him.

"I don't want her dressed like that exposing what's"....He paused. "Exposing her body like that". He forced out.

Annie chuckled. "What are you saying?. Audery and I have been dressing like this since forever. When did you begin to notice?". She scoffed.

"I just don't want her to dress like that". He huffed.

"Should I change too?". Annie frowned, looking at the outfit she was wearing. It was black leather shorts  and a pink sleeveless crop top.

"No. You can do what you want. Audery go and change now!". He hissed.

I whimpered, looking to dad and mom for help but they just looked away. Annie just shrugged, picked a slice of bread from mom's plate and headed out of the house.

"Do you want me to do the changing for you Audery?". Vincent smirked, leaning back in his chair. "Because trust me, it will be my pleasure".

My eyes widened in both fear and shock. I turned sharply heading back up the stairs to my room. I shut the door and locked it.

Leaning my back against the door, I tried to even my breaths. I shut my eyes as my head began to spin, memories of the afternoon Vincent had raped me came flooding back into my mind. I tried to think of something else but it wasn't working.

I sunk to the ground as tears began to fall from my eyes. I had thought I was ok but I wasn't. I was never going to be okay. Not as far as he was around me.

Forcing myself off the ground, I rampaged my closet and found a black long sleeved sweatshirt and black jeans to wear.

I straightened my hair and headed back down stairs. My parents were gone. I guessed that they had left for work but Vincent was standing at the end of the staircase waiting for me.

"Pull the top down". He commanded as I made my way down the stairs and I obeyed without blinking. "Good. That's how I like it". He smiled.

I tried to walk past him when I got to the bottom of the stairs but he grabbed by one arms and pulled me to him. I stumbled towards him but he held on to me.

He run his fingers through my hair and sniffed it. Making me cringed. His fingers lowered towards my neck then to my shoulder before he caressed it.

"You smell so good". He moaned.

"Let me go please". I begged, struggling to break free.

"Shhh......".

"Please. Im running late for school". I insisted.

"Do you know how much I miss baby sister?. Your soft skin, your smell, the taste of your lips on mine, oh and that tight, tight, tiny hole of yours". He forced me to look at him by grabbing my chin and turning my head. "You have no idea the restless nights I have had not being able to touch you all this while but mom said you needed to get better first". His fingers had moved lower by now, to my waist.

"Please". I whisphered. "I.. I have to get to school". I nearly sobbed.

"So do I". He answered. His hazel eyes now a darker shade.

"Mr Vincent!". Mrs Bahrain called out and Vincent's hand immediately dropped from my body as he began to clear his throat awkwardly.

I let out my breath, stepping away from him.

"Ah there you are boy". Mrs Bahrain said as she made her way towards us.

"What can I do for you Mrs Bahrain?". Vincent asked sweetly.

"I wanted to know if you would be coming home for lunch today".

Vincent looked at me for a brief second before turning to her to answer her. "No. I won't have lunch today. Will be having an early dinner with Audery today. Tell mum and dad not to wait for us during dinner". He told her while he grabbed me by the arm and proceeded to drag me out off the house.

"Enjoy your day sir, miss". Mrs Bahrain called after us but none of us answered back.

Once outside, Vincent dragged me towards his black Bentley

"I have a car". I protested.

"Shut up Audery". He huffed as we neared his car. He walked over to the passenger seat and opened the door, shoving me inside before shutting it.

I was shivering. Not from cold but fear. Fear of what he might do to me. Of the pain he might cause.

Vincent got into the car and started the engine. He said nothing else as he drove out of the house towards my school

I was both relived and grateful when he finally pulled up infront of the school. I quickly reached to open the door only for him to stop me. I cringed.

"I'm picking you up at 4pm".  He informed me.

"Why?!". I felt my heart stop

"Audery". He said in dangerously calm tone. "Question me again and you will regret it".

I nodded. Swallowing a lump that had formed in my throat.

"Stay". He said getting out of the car and coming over to my side to open the door for me. His hand brushed the top of my ****** as I got out of the care and he grunted, cursing under his breath.

"Go now before I change my mind and carry you back home to my bed". He groaned, his eyes darkening again.

My eyes were like sausers when he said this and I found myself dashing out of his sight.
