Chapter 117: Let Me Have Him
Genevieve was silent for a long while and just when Stefan was beginning to think she wasn’t going to respond, she sighed, "I can’t."
"You already said you don’t have to. It’s okay if you can’t talk about it."
"I mean I can’t be in a relationship. I don’t know how to be in a relationship," she admitted quietly.
Stefan’s brows pulled together, "I don’t think I understand what you mean."
Genevieve bit her lower lip as she considered whether or not she wanted to tell him the truth. And then figuring that he knew a little about her embarrassing past already she decided to be honest.
"I used to be addicted to sex. All I wanted from guys was sex and most of them came to me because of my father’s wealth not necessarily because they cared about me. The nude tapes I knew about them before they were released. I was being blackmailed at first but I didn’t care. I didn’t want to pay a dime so I asked them to release it. I thought maybe if they released the news I’d get my father’s attention. And then they released it but it didn’t change anything. Apart from his initial anger, nothing much changed. And then I got to college and even though the videos had been taken down from the internet, it kept circulating around campus. I didn’t care what a bunch of strangers said or thought about me. Or so I told myself. And then I continued my lifestyle in college until one night I was with this guy and after several rounds of sex he became motionless. I was terrified. He wasn’t breathing and I tried all I could to get him to wake up but he wouldn’t. I didn’t want to risk calling for help..."
"He died?" Stefan asked with a frown.
"I thought so at first. While I was still trying to figure out what to do and how to get myself out of that mess, his friends began to call repeatedly. I didn’t know what to do. I was so confused and scared so I turned off his phone. Shortly after his friends came knocking on my door. They wanted to see him..."
"You took him to your house?" Stefan asked, confused.
