"You're stuck with me forever, Skylar, Forever."
Skylar knew now that her life was ruined. If she would be stuck with someone like Louis all her life, then is it worth living?
She pursed her lips and swallowed the lump that was forming in her throat.
"Do you hear me, Skylar? Never think of leaving me. Is that clear?"
Skylar couldn't respond. How could she respond to his possessive declaration?
"Do you hear me?" Louis looked down at the woman in his arms and she nodded.
She knew he doesn't like it when she nods in response to his words, so she said, "Okay."
"Forever is the deal, Skylar, Forever."
"O... Okay." Skylar nodded.
Louis was displeased. He wanted her verbal agreement. "Not just okay, say it!"
"For... Forever is the deal." Skylar repeated and this earned her a smile from Louis.
"Good girl."
He patted her cheek and settled her carefully on the chair. He also sat down and prepared to eat as the maids served the meal.
