Chapter 37

• SCARLET
• The sound of the devil’s name alone made my stomach twist. How much more have an unfortunate past with him? If only I could change the past, I already have. There was no way I would love a man like Raoul. He was pure evil.
• I begged him. I even got down on my knees when I did it. He locked me up in his house for almost a month. I was unable to go to school. I always had bruises. He was hurting me. He only allowed me to use my phone so the people would not expect anything. I lied to my friends, I lied to Mom. It was only Nate who began to suspect what was going on with me. Katherine thought I was in love, but Nate thought I was out of my mind when I told him I was going to marry Raoul.
