Adelie POV

You wouldn't want to know what happened between me and Asher yesterday night. Well, if you're still curious. He smooched and made me moan until I fell asleep in his arms. No, we didn't have sex. At least not yet, although I'm scared that might happen soon if I don't do anything about this.

Waking up early this morning, I found myself laying alone on my bed. He must've left my room in the night while I was still asleep.

I ruffle my hair slowly as I sit up on the bed tiredly, trying to keep my heavy and sleepy eyes open. It's almost daybreak, and I need to get off bed early so I can get to work early later. Now that I think of it, how am I supposed to face my boss later after what happened yesterday?

Pushing all the thoughts to the back of my mind, I stand up to my feet and drag myself sluggishly into the bathroom, slamming the door hard behind me.

Staring at my reflection in the mirror, all I see is a horrible girl that's had her life messed up with her brother. A helpless girl that can't even fight against her brother's seduction, and a stupid girl that falls for her brother's seduction when she should be pushing him away. A part of me is screaming how much disgusting this is, how much of a cheap and shameless whore I am to be doing this dirty thing with my brother, but a part of me is also convincing me that it's not my fault, even though the truth is staring right back at me.

Taking a deep breath, I strip out of my nightie, leaving me stark naked in front of the mirror while staring at myself. This nakedness has been seen by my brother... This body has been defiled by my own blood, and the thought of it makes me feel so horrible.

I finally have a long relaxing bath and walk back into the room to get dressed for work. By the time I'm done dressing, it's already 7am, the time the family do have breakfast at the dining. As much as I don't want to have breakfast because of my brother, I can't also dodge my parents as they will always make sure that I have something to eat before I leave for office.

Descending the staircase minutes later, I almost heave a sigh of relief when I meet just my parents in the dining. Asher is not with them.

"Good morning, mommy, daddy," I greet them as I pull out the chair and sit on it.

"Good morning, love. Did you sleep well?" They take turn in asking, and I only nod my head with a warm smile on my face, pretending to have a good sleep the previous night. I couldn't have told them that I was busy with my brother all night, right? That'll be very heartbreaking for them to know that the two kids they gave birth to are into some illicit affair. That's crazy.

Silence assumes the air as I hurry with my food, intending to get done with it and leave home before Asher comes to join us. I don't want to see him.

"Come on, honey. Eat calmly. You're going to purge later," My mom says when she notices that I'm hurrying my food. If only she knows what I'm trying to avoid, then she would know that purging at the office later is better than seeing my brother.

"Hmm," I nod my head as I reduce my speed of eating.

The sound of the footsteps descending the stairs pull my attention, and the cologne that fills my nostrils makes my heart sink into my stomach. Asher is here.

"Uhm... I need to go now. See you later, mom, dad," I say to them hurriedly as I quickly stand up to my feet and grab my bad without bothering to drink water. I'll buy a bottled water on my way to the office. "What's with the hurry, sis. Aren't you eating?" I have no idea the time that Asher arrives behind me, but feeling his hands on my shoulders makes my heart miss a beat, and I gulp down nothing nervously. "Yes, you should finish your food first, Adelie," Dad supports him, and I gulp down nothing.

"No, dad. I'm fine. I just remember that I need to hand a file to my boss very early. He's having appointment with some of his clients, and he needs the file," I lie to them, making sure that my voice doesn't falter. "Oh, I didn't know that," Dad utters, and I nod my head.

"Drive safely, ok?" Mom says to me as I made to go. "Thanks mom," I reply to her.

"Uhm... Adelie, can you give me a ride to the office? My car is faulty, and I can't take a cab to the office," Asher suddenly says, bringing me to an abrupt halt. I slowly clench my fingers around the bag in my hand, and take a deep breath. Can't I really avoid this man?

"There are many cars in the house, you can take anyone..."

"You know I don't like riding other cars aside from my own. There's no harm in giving your brother a ride, right? I will tell the driver to bring me the car later when it's fixed," He says with an unconvincing look on his face. I know his car may not have issue, or who knows, maybe he caused the damage by himself just so he can bother me.

"You can have mine instead, Asher. I will take a cab to the offi..."

"No, Adelie. I won't do that. I don't want to make you feel inconvenient. It's your car, and it'll be selfish of me to do that," He says, trying to sound like the gentleman he's not.

"I just said that I need to get to the office early..."

"Come on, Adelie... He's your brother, and there's no big deal in dropping him off at his office. Besides, you two are going the same way," Mom finally chips in, and at this point, I know that I don't have a choice. They are going to question me if I insist, and how will I explain to them then?

"Fine," I can see the smile on his face as I finally agree to give him a ride. I need to be saved from him, please...
