The Alphas Toy

Wilson House

"Audrey, don't hold off! Go and pack your things, your husband will come to pick you up tomorrow." The person speaking was Matilda, Audrey Wilson's stepmother. They were blocking the doorway to keep Audrey out.

Audrey glares angrily at the old woman in front of her and replies, "I'll say it for the last time, I'm not going to be that old bald fat man's fourth wife!"

Talia, who is beside her, sees her mother being chastised and mischievously gets up from the couch and rushes over to Audrey and slaps her without saying a word.

Slap-

Talia raises her head and yells, " Do you think you have a choice? It's all about paying off your father's debt!"

The fiery pain on her face causes Audrey to instantly burst into tears, but she still replies firmly without showing any weakness, "My father? You're not his daughter at this point, are you?!"

Audrey's questioning fails to make the mother and daughter in front of her feel any guilt, they just order Audrey as a matter of course, "Aren't you working as a whore for the rich man's son? You tell him to give us a hundred thousand dollars and you don't have to marry!"

The rich man's son they're talking about is Josh, Audrey's boyfriend. "Josh and I are a couple! Not the kind of relationship you're talking about!"

Talia said with a mocking smile, "Who cares?"

No one would believe that Audrey and Josh had been dating for three years, but they had never had sex, and the closest they had gotten was a kiss.

Audrey's mother had become a whore after her divorce. At the time Audrey followed her mother around and witnessed so many men how they roughed up her mother that she grew up afraid of sex.

Audrey was 16 when her mother died. She came to her father's side. But she also entered another hell. Only Josh, healed the wound inside her. He was like an angel, never forcing her to do anything she didn't want to do, including sex.

Audrey wouldn't allow anyone to denigrate Josh, and with that she yelled, "I told you he wasn't like that!"

Talia was going to continue to say something when Matilda stepped aside and stopped her, she turned around with a fake smile and said, "Yes, you are a couple. I assume he can give you that $100,000, I don't think he'd want you to marry someone else, would he?"

Audrey glanced up at her stepmother, thinking seriously about the question. As much as she was fighting it tooth and nail, she knew that this family never respected her ideas and she simply couldn't resist. Perhaps asking Josh for a loan was indeed the best way to go.

Matilda, seeing that Audrey is a bit shaken, smoothly picks up the cake she grabbed earlier and hands it to Audrey to remind her, "You're going to Josh for your birthday, right? That's just right then, you go ask him for it."

Audrey took the cake. Yes, it was her 21st birthday, and she had prepared an elaborate cake and wanted to spend it sweetly with Josh. But now, it was all getting complicated.

Matilda pulled Talia out of the way through the doorway and Audrey didn't hesitate to head out. Behind her came Matilda's voice, "You have to get the money by tomorrow morning!"

***

Josh did come from a wealthy family, so he never lived on campus, but had a fancy apartment off campus. He gave her the key to this apartment, but Audrey actually rarely just opened the door and went in, she always thought it was rude.
