A/N

Hey Guys! Thank you for sticking around while we had some personal health issues she had to deal with. FireLady and I are sorry for the long wait but we want to thank you so much for the reviews. We appreciate them to no extent. We hope you like this chapter :)

CHAD POV

I woke up to the sound of Sonny's voice, making my senses slowly come to life and my ears perk if they could. It sounded so soft and so light that it made me wonder if she was in the bed with me. I know that wasn't true. It was just her shaking my shoulder softly and trying to get me to wake up. Good thing something else on me didn't wake up. I wouldn't be embarrassed, though. I'd feel like she should be more flattered if anything if she caused it. I pulled a pillow over my head and ignored her. I didn't feel like getting up and if I didn't feel like it, I wasn't going to.

"Chad, please get up so your mother doesn't get mad at me." I heard her say.

"My mother will get over it."

"She really wants you at breakfast."

"I'm sick." I faked a cough and heard her chuckle. "I don't want to eat breakfast and talk about shit with my mother."

"I'm sure you'll enjoy it." Sonny yanked the pillow off my face and smiled at me nicely. It was a genuine smile rather than the one she used to have when she first worked her. "Wake up."

"I'm up."

"Now, rise to your feet." I let out a groan, throwing the covers off me and swinging my legs over the bed. Sonny looked at my bare chest for a moment before looking down bashfully.

"Does me being shirtless bother you?"

"Not at all."

"You like me with my shirt off, then?"

She quirked a brow. "Don't flatter yourself."

"I'm just saying…" I stood up and fixed the waist pants of my boxers. "It's okay if you like me shirtless."

"I'm gonna go start your shower. You can have a personal moment with the love for your body." She teased and dropped the pillow onto the bed.

I liked messing with Sonny about the small things that make her blush. It was innocent and cute, just like her. Now I know she's been touched by… multiple guys and been taken advantage of but that's not what's underneath the surface. Granted, at first I thought that she was dirty, and disgusting and… used but I realized that she wasn't that at all. The guys that did that to her were. She's a nice person and sweet as ever if you get to know her. I feel bad every day that she had to go through that and there's a tiny sense of fear that she has whenever I touch her. I wish she didn't fear anything about me. I wish Sonny didn't shy away from me or push me away after a simple kiss that lasts more than fifteen seconds. But I'll take it as I can get since it's more than she could give. I padded into the bathroom after hearing the shower turn on and saw her folding up clean towels, putting them on the counter. I walked up behind her and put my hands on the counter on both sides.

"Making my towels warm?"

"I'm folding them."

"I was teasing." I smirked and knew that she tensed just a bit when I first got behind her. "Are you afraid of me or something?"

"No, I'm not afraid of you." She looked at me in the mirror and shook her head. "You have to take a shower."

"I don't have to do anything I don't want to do." I pointed out, reaching up and pushing the hair off her neck.

"Obviously. Is that your motto?"

I shrugged. "Might be. You should be nice to me. I might decide to take you on a date sometime. Well… that's if you're willing to admit that… you like me back. Mmkay, Sonshine?"

"No, not okay."

"Not okay?" She put the towel down on the counter, making sure it was stacked neatly on top of the other and gave me a playful look in the mirror. I grinned and took my hands off the granite placing them on her curved waist. "Why not okay?" I murmured into the back of her hair. She chuckled lightly and turned around.

"Because you have girls waiting to ride you." She placed her hand on my chest and pushed me back. "And I never implied that I liked you… you're getting way to ahead of yourself." She smiled, walking out of the bathroom without looking back. I shook my head unbelievably with a smug grin and stripped my boxers.

SONNY POV

I sat here staring at my handsome man of a tutor like an idiot. He had dark, neat brown hair with blue eyes that didn't really have anything on Chad's but damn he's cute. His name is Will. I tried to hide my drooling by doing the work on the textbook page he assigned but I couldn't focus. He was kind of like… Chase Crawford mixed in with… Chris Hemsworth. Chad wasn't here. He had an interview with his brother for some magazine that his entire family is going to be in. Forbes. I think that's the name of it. The magazine for rich people. Well, they've been gone for about three and a half hours now and I didn't expect Chad to leave me alone with my tutor. I thought that he was going to just be around the house. I don't even think he knows my tutor is a guy! A good looking guy at that! Rita's here though so I'm at ease. I have half an hour left since home schooling is four hours.

"So, did you do the last few questions?"

"I'm doing them now." I snapped out of it and tapped my pencil on the Chemistry work book. I hated this in actual school and I hate it now.

"Do you find them challenging?"

"No, I find it stupid." I muttered. He snickered and pushed his glass up on his face a little bit. "I don't want to do this."

"Because you don't understand?"

"Because it's stupid." I replied. "I'm never going to use this in life."

"How about we move onto English, then? Taking a break from… this stupidity might help you." He mocked me.

"I doubt it."

"I could assign some for homework." I just clenched my jaw and exhaled. "We're gonna read 'Like Water for Chocolate' and that'll be your base for this curriculum."

"I read that book. I didn't like it. I didn't like the movie either." I deadpanned. He just gave me a look as to say that he's the teacher and what he says goes so I shut up. "Fine, I'll read it again."

"You should write a great essay on it since it'll be the second time."

"Mm…" He reached into his big bag of fun and pulled out one of his copies of the book. "Do you home school in houses like this a lot?"

"Yeah."

"Oh…"

"I tutor at least… ten kids around here but… I've never tutored the maid."

"Yeah, um I didn't want to be homeschooled but my bosses son insisted that I be educated."

"Your parents don't mind?"

"My parents don't care." I corrected.

"About your school life?"

"About anything I do. I live near The Cove… in a trailer park." He narrowed his eyes as if he was trying to see if he could figure out where that was.

"Oh… that's kind of a dangerous area." He grumbled. "That must suck."

"Yeah well… it's not a big deal." I took the book from his hand and flipped open the first page. "Where are you from?" I asked without looking up from the book.

"This area. Maybe a mile away from here."

"Mm."

"Yeah."

I had gotten to know my tutor on a tutor level. He's a nice guy, I guess. I hope. He knows his stuff though because he's insanely smart for no reason. That's a good thing. The faster he teaches me, the quicker the school work is over. Chad and Seth had gotten back a little over half an hour. They had food in their hand they aren't allowed to eat like burgers from In-n-Out burger. Chad's face was priceless when he saw that my tutor was a guy. He looked a little jealous to me.

"And… who's this?" He sat at the dining room table and clasped his hands in front of him.

"Will, this is my bosses son Chad and this is tutor Will." I motioned between them and sighed.

"Hello." Will held out his hand but Chad just narrowed his eyes.

"You're a guy." Chad chuckled, narrowing his eyes.

"Yeah, I am..." Will said, knowing that Chad was really okay with my tutor being a male.

I dropped my head on the table and shook my head. "What happened to Sabrina, the tutor that used to be here when I needed it?" He asked Will.

"Um… I was just told the address."

"Hm…" He smirked, turning his head to me. "Did you learn a lot today?"

"I did. I hated it but I learned."

"That's great." He deadpanned deeply. "Don't let me interrupt. I just wanna see this whole learning process."

"We're actually finished for today." Will started packing up his stuff, sliding me the books that I should keep. He used a post it note to write some worksheet pages and question numbers down before getting up with a polite smile. "I'll see you… tomorrow."

"Never." Chad grumbled.

"Okay." I assured him and rose to my feet to show him to the door. "Don't mind him… he's just… being himself." I opened the front door and moved to the side so he can go through it.

Will shrugged with a smile. "Right well, I'll be back tomorrow around the same time. Get that homework done."

"Bye." I waved and closed the door behind him. I still think he's cute but he's got nothing on Chad. I walked back into the dining room and saw both brothers sitting at the table, chewing on their food like they've never eaten in their life. "You're obnoxious, you know that?" I can basically talk to Chad anyway I like since he doesn't care. Or he does, he just shrugs it off. I don't know.

"I'm not obnoxious. You're all wide eyed going "Okay" when he said he'd be back." He snorted a small laugh and looked up at me. "You were swooning..." My smirk dropped and my face turned red.

"I'm a girl. I'm allowed to… be wide eyed." I retorted. Seth looked at Chad and then looked at me before snickering. "Shut up."

"I didn't say anything."

"I'm going to get back to work now…" I grabbed all my books and took them to the maids quarters quickly.

Stupid Chad! Making me feel all weird. I hate him so much. I did a load of laundry, folding his and Seth's clothes but feeling a little awkward when I had to fold their Calvin's. Seth should just become a Calvin Klein model. He'd make a lot of women happy since… he's walking porn. Did I just think that? I put all the clean clothes in the basket and headed up with stairs when I was finished. I also had to make Chad's bed. I put their clothes away first and then made the younger ones huge mattress. I don't know how he finds the edge to get up every morning but I have to make it up and it's a lot of energy.

"Slacking, Monroe. You're just now finished making my bed."

"Why are you stalking me?"

"I can't stalk you in my own house."

"Touché." I narrowed my eyes and fixed his pillows at the top. "I'm finished anyway."

"Oh, damn. You looked good making up my bed." I heard him mumble something else but couldn't make it out.

"You… have a problem with my teacher."

"Nah, I was just kidding. I'd rather him be a she but… I can't control that."

"Why would it matter if he was a guy?"

"Because…" He rocked back and forth on his heels and clicked his tongue. "I don't like it."

"Hm. Can it be because you're jealous?"

I turned around and waited for a response. He placed his hands on my waist and frowned. "No."

"Big baby."

"Shut up."

Chad kissed me slowly, sliding his hands down to my hips and pulling me closer to him. His mouth with still foreign to mine but I wouldn't complain. He kisses me like I mean something to him and maybe I do. I'm not really sure. He kisses me like he won't hurt me. I wrapped my arms around his neck loosely and kissed him back. If his mother saw this, she'd fire me and kill him. The kiss picked up in speed and in force. My hand curled in the hair on the nape of his neck and he lifted me, wrapping my legs around his waist. He put me back on his bed so I was lying underneath him. Only his upper body was touching mine. I was okay with that. He was warm.

Chad placed small kisses along my cheek, moving down to my neck and working on placing them there also. Every place his lips touched lit on fire and burned deeply, leaving goosebumps down my spine. This feels really good. His hands caught the back of my knee and hitched it around his waist. There was a feeling I haven't had in a long time. A feeling of want... maybe lust? His hand ran up my uniform a little. His body was completely on top of mine, hips and all. I bit back a small moan. I opened my eyes a bit and looked at the ceiling. There was Samson's face, lip between his teeth and unshaven beard and all. I trembled, feeling him put his hands on my waist and put his mouth on my neck. I froze and snapped my eyes shut, reopening them to still see his face. His hand ran along my thigh tightly and I trembled harder.

"Stop, stop, stop!" I panicked and sat up abruptly. But it wasn't Samson. It was Chad and he looked utterly confused. Oh God. I'm paranoid.

His brows raised. "Are you okay?"

"I-I can't." I swallowed hard and stood up. "I'm sorry but I can't," I made my way to his door and opened it up.

"Sonny, are you okay?" He asked me.

"I j-just..." I veered off and left the room. I know he's going to get tired of me walking away but all I could see was Samson and his gritty face and calloused hands. I'm fucking crazy.

"Sonny, will you stop running?" I ran in the direction of the maids quarters and heard his footsteps behind me. "Sonny, stop..." I ran into the room and slammed the door as quick as I could. He put his hand on the knob and tried to unlock it but I refused to open it. "Can you tell me what I did wrong?"

"It's not you, it's me." I leaned my forehead on he door and breathed out. "Just please leave me alone..."

"Sonny-"

"Please, Chad." I practically whispered.

There was a short silence until I heard his feet pat away from the door. I slid down the wall next to it and put my head between my knees. Why the hell did I see Samson? Am I losing my mind? It was Chad who was kissing me but... I couldn't get Samson's face out of my head. What. The. Hell?

CHAD POV

I dropped back on the living room couch, running my fingers through my hair angrily. What the hell did I do that made her run away like that? Sonny looked scared like she had seen a ghost. I wasn't going to do anything that she didn't want. It was just weird. She ran so fast and slammed the door in my face. I'm Chad Dylan Cooper. I never get doors slammed in my face. I don't know what's wrong and I want to. It's driving me crazy because... I liked kissing Sonny. She had soft lips and a warm body. The skin of her neck was so soft. My focus was on that because I didn't want to leave it. What the fuck did I do that made her run? The house phone rang and I didn't feel like getting up to answer it. I saw Sonny run out from the hallway and into the kitchen to get the phone.

"Mr. Chad... Mr. Grady is on the phone," I got up, making my way over there and watching her hand me the phone.

"Hello?" She started to walk away but I grabbed her hand because I wanted to talk to her.

"Hey, man. What are you doing around... Seven thirty?"

"Um... nothing,"

"Take a trip with me to San Francisco."

"I'm sorry, that's a six hour drive."

"I'm taking my father's plane,"

"What do you need that's in San Fran?" I scoffed. Sonny wouldn't look me in the eye while she tried to unwrap my hand from hers.

"I'm supposed to be doing some interview but they never told me that it was in San Fran," He sighed. "Yes or no because I have to get ready,"

"Nah, I don't think I'm gonna make it."

"You sure?" Sonny got away but I wove my arm around her waist and pulled her to me. She gasped lightly and put her hands on my chest, trying to push me away.

"Yeah, I got some things to tend to here." I looked down at her with soft eyes.

"Sorry..."

"It's cool. I'll see you later."

"Alright." I hung up and looked at Sonny who still wouldn't look at me. "What did I do?"

"What are you talking about?"

"You ran out of my room like you saw a ghost or some shit."

"Oh... Chad I..." She exhaled heavily. "It really isn't you. Its me. I don't- can't... I don't know. I keep seeing other guys faces."

I chuckled. "Other guys?" Then it really clicked and I felt like an idiot. "I'm not gonna do what they did to you. I wouldn't... force you to do anything."

"It just- I'm not used to... being kissed like that."

"Look at me," I cupped her chin and tilted her head up. She just stared my chest and fiddled her thumbs. "Eyes up here." Her pretty brown eyes met mine. "I'm not those guys at your house. I would never do that to you. No means no and stop means stop." In some cases. She nodded hesitantly and pushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "You might have PTSD."

"I don't have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Chad. I just... I'm not used to this."

"We can get you tested for it."

"No, I'm perfectly fine. I swear." She held up her hands and nodded. "It won't happen again,"

I smirked while leaning down to kiss her again. "Mhm."

Sonny let my lips touch hers and slung her arms around my neck. I draped my arms around her waist and made sure she was close to me. She kissed me back so gentle and light that I just couldn't seem to stop. Someone as soft as her shouldn't have gone through what she did. I moved around her a little so she was against the wall, my hand feeling the curve of her waist. Her lips were sweet, like peaches I wanted to bite into. She's just so soft and... beautiful.

"So... this is what goes on in the house?" I stopped the kiss and turned my head to see Seth leaning across the counter with a glass over water between his lips. Sonny pushed me away quickly and wiped underneath her lip.

"What are you doing, Seth?"

He smirked and looked at me. "I'm leaving now... just wanted to let you know."

"Do you need anything before you go?" Sonny asked softly. He just shook his head and laughed.

"No, I'm good, Sonny. Are you okay? You look a little flustered." Seth taunted.

"Seth..."

"You know that she's a maid and mom would never approve, right?" I nodded and folded my arms. I didn't care.

"She wouldn't have a choice." I spat out.

"I knew this was going to happen. That's the whole reason you wanted to hire her. You liked her the whole time." He laughed loudly and shrugged his shoulders.

"Whatever, have fun. I don't care." Seth walked away with a grin on his face his hands in his pockets. I turned and saw that Sonny just turned a bright red and covered her face.

"I'm going to get fired."

"No, you're not." She chuckled and nodded.

"I am. It was fun while it lasted, I guess," She dropped her hands and sighed.

"Oh no, we're just getting started." I gave her a wink and walked away.

Seth isn't going to stop me from wanting who I like and neither is my mom if she finds out. I like who I like. I was having a conversation on the phone with Nico and he's coming over to chill tonight. If he's showing up that means Tawni's coming and if Tawni's coming, everyone and their friends are coming. The pool house is going to be occupied again. I didn't have a problem with it because it gives me a chance to win some more money. It just sucks that Grady's not going to be there because he's the best dealer we have.

"Sonny!" I called out for my maid. She came into my room around nine thirty at night in her pajama's. "I need you to serve drinks."

"Serve drinks?" She blurted out. "It's nine o clock at night. I'm off right now."

"Yeah and I'll pay you extra."

"But I'm tired."

"You can sleep in tomorrow."

"Your mother won't let me."

"You're making excuses." I stated honestly. "I'll tell my mother that you were working late and she'll be okay with it, alright?"

"Is… Vince coming?" Unfortunately. "Can I just work in jeans instead of the uniform? I don't like wearing that dress when he's around."

"Just deal with it for tonight. If something happens, I'll take care of it." She sighed, slumping out of my room with her hands in her hair. "You can leave your hair down, though. It looks pretty."

"What's with you complementing me?" She looked over her shoulder. I smirked and pushed my phone in my pocket.

"You don't like being complemented?"

"Not if you expect something in return." I shook my head. "You have nice eyes, Chad. I told you that before."

"And I said thank you, okay?" I mocked.

"Okay."

I grinned. "Fine."

"Fine."

"Good."

She spat back and left my room. "Good."

Around eleven thirty, we were all in the pool house, laughing over cards and a few smoking. I was winning a great deal of money tonight so I was excited. So far, I got seven thousand dollars and counting. Whenever Sonny would come in with a new tray of drinks, I'd catch Vince eyeing her uniform and Sonny pulling it down when'd she get the chance. I'd send her a look of apology whenever we'd catch eyes and she'd lower hers in response. Vince is a creep. I hate him as a person but as a person to play cards with, I love getting his money. He blew out a breath of smoke and sipped the drink Sonny had put in front of him.

"Cooper, if you take my money one more time, I think I might cry."

"That'd make my day."

"That'd make everyone's day." Tawni giggled and picked at her nails when Nico was shuffling the cards. "So, I heard you and Seth took pictures for Forbes."

"Yeah, we did."

"Are they sexy pictures?"

"No, we're in black and white tuxes. Perfectly coiffed and poised." I corrected her. "I hate photographers."

"Boohoo, the famous Chad Dylan Cooper hates having his picture taken." Nico taunted and glanced over at me. "You've seen the recent tabs?"

"No."

"They got a picture of you leaving the trailer parks with your maid."

"And?"

"What were you doing over there? You know that's not for places like people like us."

I snorted an annoyed laugh and folded my arms. "And what kind of people are we?"

"Upper class. You don't go to the boonies." Vince cracked.

"It's not the boonies. It's twenty minutes away from here and it's just a trailer park."

"You could probably contract something by walking in there."

"It's perfectly fine and nothing happened. You shouldn't be afraid to see other parts of this town."

"If it risks me getting shot at, I'm not going." Penelope cut in and took a huge gulp out of her wine glass. "Besides, no maid is worth getting mugged or your life taken." That irritated me a little bit.

"Some are. It depends on the person." I said proudly. Nico looked at me briefly and shrugged off any thought he had about it. Vince inhaled from his cigarette again and scratched his greasy hair.

"Only if I got a taste out of it." Devon sighed.

"You'd sleep with your maid?"

"Yeah, why not?" Tawni rolled her eyes and ran her manicured fingers through her hair.

"Gross. Why put in the effort if you're not gonna get some ass?"

"Because not everything's about getting some." I stated.

"Are you okay?" Devon narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips.

Penelope laughed. "Obviously, he's ill."

"I'm not ill. It's just… you can do good things and not have a reason to." Sonny hid a smile by looking down at the ground and shaking her head.

"When's the last time you've gotten laid? Do I need to call Hanna so she can situate things for you?" Tawni patted my shoulder. There's no getting through to them.

Vince cleared his throat and looked at my maid. "Sonny, can you get me another drink?"

"Yes, sir."

SONNY POV

I hated sitting here and listening to the mindless, stupid babble these people talk about. I hated Chad's friends. They were insensitive assholes that don't think about anyone but themselves. And Vince… he can crawl into the darkest, deepest landfill and inhale the toxins until he passes out. I made a completely new tray of drinks, opening a new bottle of wine with a wine knife since I couldn't find the corkscrew. I poured the glasses of scotch, red wine and hard liquor. They're all under the drinking age and they drink like it's nothing. I hope none of them drive drunk. It was getting late and I wanted to sleep. I yawned shortly before picking up the tray off the counter.

"Change your mind yet?" I almost dropped the tray of drinks when Vince walked up behind me and placed his hands on my waist. He made my skin crawl and I hated it. He scared me. I put the drinks down and swallowed, I really despise Vince.

"Um… please keep your distance." I stuttered, turning around and putting my hands on his to try to get them off.

"Did you change your mind yet?"

"A-About what?" He's too close. Way to close. The smoke on his breath made my nose turn up.

"Going on a date with me…"

"I um… no. I didn't." He stepped forward a little which made me step back but I went right into the counter. There was nowhere for me to go. "Excuse me…"

"Wait, wait, wait…" Vince chuckled and shook his head. I could feel my body starting to shake. I wanted to leave. I pushed at his chest but he barely budged. "I think I deserve a reason."

"But you don't. I don't want to date you." His hands slid down to my hips and pulled my lower body into him. "Stop it." I pushed at his chest again and tried to get his hands off of me.

"Don't be so stubborn. Go out with me." He's desperate.

"No, thanks."

He snickered and grabbed my ass, lifting my skirt to his advantage. "But you're so pretty. I'd love to get to know you…" I panicked and my breathing picked up. The tears started blocking my eyes. He touched my panties, tugging them hard until a tear presented itself in my ear. No… not again.

"G-Get off..." I breathed out and pushed against him.

"Relax." I was bare under my uniform. He had torn my underwear and dropped them to the floor. It was all happening to fast. I squirmed to get away from him but he held me tighter and tighter with every push and or shove.

"Get off me…" I said louder but his hand left my butt and flew over my mouth. His nails are sharp; I can feel them in my cheek.

"Shh…" He coaxed with a smile. "Wouldn't want people getting wrong idea, would we?" The scream, it was building up in my chest. I was going to scream. I reached behind me, blindly looking for anything. I felt a glass and picked it up. I didn't know what was in it but I threw it in his face. He groaned loudly and put his hands over his eyes. It smelled like Tequila. That's what it was. Still pissed, I kneed him in the balls, watching him hunch over and grunt from pain.

"Asshole." I spat out.

"Vince, what are you doing?" A girl's voice called out. It sounded like Tawni.

"Ah fuck…" He exclaimed and grabbed the back of my neck, pulling me closer to him. "Are you out of your mind?"

"Let go!" I screamed with the tears blinding me. I reached again for anything I can get my hands on. I wanted something sharp, something that would make him stop.

"Stupid bitch!" His eyes were red from the alcohol and the front of his hair was damp.

And his hand… his hand tightened on the back of my neck. I whimpered. Ow! What did I just prick my hand on? I tried to look at the counter and saw what I had… knife. A wine knife. I used it to open up that bottle. I brought it to his neck, pushing him back with my other arm and slamming him against the small island. Two chairs fell to the ground with a loud clang. I had him. He wasn't going to hurt me. I breathed unevenly and watched him eye the knife that was on his neck.

"Vince, what the fuck are yo- Chad!" It was Nico, he yelled for Chad.

Then I heard his voice. "What the fuck?" I wanted to kill Vince. "Sonny…" His voice got lower as he got closer. "Drop the knife…" Vince swallowed and put his hands out beside him. I glared at him. He's a fucking pervert. "Sonny… drop. The knife." I loosened my hand around the silver and dropped it to the floor, backing up and taking my eyes on Vince's.

"What the hell happened? She was going to kill him." Penelope spat out.

"Come with me…" Chad grabbed my arm and pulled me into a different room that was… faraway from everyone else. He closed the door behind him and shaking his head. "What the hell is wrong with you?" Chad's eyes, they pierced through mine, searching for an answer. "Sonny, what the fuck is wrong with you?" I just looked at him and walked into his chest, letting the tears out that I tried to hold back. I can tell he was hesitant but his arms slowly came around me, running up the curve of my back. It was a few silent minutes and the only thing that was making noise was me. I was sobbing and I ruined his shirt with tears. "What happened?" He muttered.

"He tried… Not again…"

"What do you mean he tried?"

"He ripped my p-panties and t-t-tried to touc-"

He tensed. "Stop." I heard him breathe out. "Stay in here… relax… watch TV, alright?" I nodded and backed up. Without another word, he left the room and closed the door on his way out. They must think I'm crazy…

CHAD POV

Vince tried to touch her. That's why she had a knife to his neck. I have to say that… I'm a little proud of her. Getting to a point where she was going to kill a guy if he even tried but the actual side of me was pissed. At Vince. He really should keep his hands to himself. He's a fucking creep and it wouldn't be the first time a girl tried to get away from him. I went back into the kitchen where everyone was standing and faced Vince. He looked shaken up. He was never on the verge of getting his throat slit. Sonny's good because I would've cut his neck just to see him freak the hell out. I discreetly pushed Sonny's torn panties to the side so no one would see them and clenched my jaw.

"What the hell happened?"

"Nothing."

"You're lying." I narrowed my eyes.

"I'm not… I came in here to ask her a question and she freaked out."

"So… you didn't try to touch her?" I could see his posture change subtly but he tried to play it off.

"No…"

"Can we talk… in private?" I motioned to everyone else so they can leave the room. Once they left, I shoved my hands in my pockets and stared at him while trying to hide my anger. "Why?"

"She's just a maid, Chad. Why are you getting all worked up?" He smirked and fixed his shirt and ran his fingers through his hair.

"She may just be a maid but she is a female and I'm pretty sure that when a girl says no. It means no." He snorted a laugh. He's laughing? The fucker is laughing. "Why is that funny to you?"

"Because you sound weird. No means no." He imitated me and shrugged his shoulders. "Relax, man…"

I can't with this asshole. "Listen to me because I'm only gonna say this once. You… are not to touch her. Ever. If you so much as graze her the wrong way, mess with her, make her cry or do something that makes her uncomfortable… I will be holding a knife to your neck and I will kill you without a care or a second thought." I stated calmly. "We both know my anger, Vincent. Let's not mess with it. Got it?"

"She's just a ma-"

"Got. It?" He just nodded and clenched his jaw.

"I got it."

"Good."

When it was all over that night, I had forgotten Sonny was in the room by herself. She was absolutely silent and prevented herself from facing everyone while they were still here. When I had opened the door, she was sitting on the bed without shoes with a pillow on her lap and had the TV on. She was watching a movie quietly, quirking her brow when she saw me. I sat on the bed beside her and looked at the screen.

She opened her mouth. "I didn't mean too..."

"It's fine..."

"I'm sorry if I embarrassed you." She then said softly, folding her hands on the pillow. I shook my head honestly and looked at her. She was so pretty. I don't get how she can be so innocently beautiful.

"You didn't."
