I was shocked when Nolan showed me the video of myself twerking last night. I couldn’t remember doing it, and I was trying to recall the events of the night.
“How did this happen?” I asked Nolan, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Nolan just shrugged. “You must’ve drank something. You were pretty wasted.”
I nodded, feeling a bit relieved that it wasn’t entirely my fault. But then something clicked in my mind. I remembered Nolan dropping something into my drink earlier that night.
“You drugged me,” I said, my voice shaking with anger.
Nolan just laughed. “Well, I had to get the party started somehow. And it worked, didn’t it?”
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. He had purposely drugged me to make me lose control and embarrass myself.
“You’re sick,” I said, my voice shaking with rage. “I trusted you, and you took advantage of me.”
Nolan just shrugged. “Hey, it’s not my fault you can’t hold your liquor. But if you don’t want your father to see this, there is something you could do for me.”
I knew what he was going to say, and I felt sick to my stomach. There was no way I was going to sleep with him just to keep this video from getting out.
“I’m not doing that,” I said, my voice firm and unwavering.
Nolan just chuckled. “Suit yourself. But I wouldn’t want my father to see this. He wouldn’t be too happy about his little nanny twerking on some random guy.”
I felt a surge of anger and fear. He was right. His father would be furious if he saw this video, and I could lose my job because of it.
“Delete it,” I said, my voice shaking with emotion. “Please, Nolan. I can’t afford to lose this job.”
Nolan just looked at me with a cold expression. “I don’t think I will. But don’t worry, I won’t show it to anyone… yet.”
I felt a lump form in my throat. He was blackmailing me, and there was nothing I could do about it.
“You’re a monster,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper.
Nolan just shrugged. “I’m just looking out for my own interests. You should be more careful in the future.”
I couldn’t believe how callous he was being. He had ruined my life, and he didn’t even care.
“Please, Nolan,” I begged. “I’ll do anything. Just don’t send it to your father.”
Nolan just smiled. “Anything, huh? Well, maybe we can work something out.”
I knew what he was implying, and I felt a surge of disgust and anger. There was no way I was going to let him use me like this.
“No,” I said, my voice firm and resolute. “I’m not going to sleep with you. You can send the video to whoever you want, but I won’t be a part of your sick games.”
Nolan just laughed. “Suit yourself. But don’t come crying to me when my father sees this and fires you.”
I felt a sense of dread as he walked away. He had me over a barrel, and there was nothing I could do about it. I just had to hope that he wouldn’t follow through on his threats, and that I could somehow salvage my job and my reputation.
Nolan’s threat was hanging over my head like a dark cloud. I knew that if he sent that video to his father, I could lose everything. My job, my reputation, and my father’s respect. But I refused to let Nolan use me like this.
“I’m not going to do it, Nolan,” I said firmly. “I won’t sleep with you just to keep this video from getting out.”
Nolan just smirked. “You don’t have a choice, Alexa. Either you do what I say, or you can kiss your job goodbye.”
I felt a surge of anger and frustration. How could he be so cruel? But then I realized that he was right. I couldn’t afford to lose this job, not now. I had bills to pay, and my father was expecting me to contribute to the family business.
“Fine,” I said through gritted teeth. “What do you want me to do?”
Nolan just smiled, his eyes gleaming with triumph. “That’s more like it. I want you to come over to my place tonight. We’ll have a little… chat.”
I felt a sense of dread as he said those words. I knew what he was implying, and I felt sick to my stomach.
“I’m not going to sleep with you,” I said firmly. “I’ll do whatever else you want, but I won’t do that.”
Nolan just shrugged. “Suit yourself. But if you don’t do exactly what I say, I’ll send that video to my father faster than you can say ‘twerk’.”
I knew I had no choice. I had to do what he said, no matter how much it disgusted me.
“Fine,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper. “I’ll come over tonight.”
Nolan just grinned. “Good. And don’t even think about backing out. I have eyes everywhere, and if you don’t follow through on your end, I’ll make sure you never work in this town again.”
I felt a shiver run down my spine as he walked away. He had me under his thumb, and there was nothing I could do about it. All I could do was hope that he wouldn’t hurt me too badly, and that I could somehow find a way to get out of this mess. I needed to get out of this mess. I couldn’t believe that I was caught under Nolan’s thumb just like that. I’m not sure Cody is gonna be okay with all of this and I don’t want to be the reason why his plan fails. Anthony must not see that video no matter what because I know he would be pissed and I don’t want to loose the job because I don’t know how Cody will react knowing I lost our__no , I lost his chance of becoming rich because of a stupid drunken video of me twerking.
