Chapter 39
“Then I will make them stop myself,” he shot back; his voice echoing through the halls of the dining hall. To anyone cise, it would cause a shiver to their spine and fear to take over. But for me, he was just my protective father, and I knew he loved me and wanted what was best for me.
“But father…” I tried to argue, but he shot his hand up, silencing me.
“Enough of this argument,” he said, his voice low and threatening. “I won’t allow you to reject again. Your identity should have been revealed 3 years ago to prevent you from getting hurt. I won’t make that mistake again.”
Silence fell through the dining hall as I and my brothers stared around at each other. I knew there was no changing my father’s mind. We all knew that.
“She thinks she’s all that because she’s sleeping with the princes,” Ella muttered; both she and Tina were furious after being kicked out of the fashion exhibit. They were still in shock that their favorite fashion designer ended up being Anna. Neither of them wanted to wear her clothes anymore, but they were the most popular brand in the kingdom.
If they didn’t wear this clothing, they would be outcasts for sure.
It wasn’t fair.
“You think she’s sleeping with both of them?” Wilson asked.
Wilson was a friend of Ella’s, and he was also the head of the media. Whenever Ella and Tina needed something, media related, they would always go to Wilson. With his resources there was very little he could do and find out. Ella was always talking to Wilson about Anna and how she was selling her body to come up with the money for survival. That she sleeps around for money and favors; that she used Joseph for her own gain.
All of it was true; they weren’t rumors. Ella knew the kind of person Anna was and she wasn’t going to sit blindly by while Anna gets all the support and recognition.
“She has to be sleeping with both of them,” Ella shot back, folding her arms across her chest. “It’s the only thing that makes sense in this stupid upside- down world.”
“She sleeps with them for favors and money. She even has a house because of them,” Tina chimed in.
She was still embarrassed about her failed performance at the fashion show. But Joseph was looking so down on them when they were talking about Anna; they knew that Anna wouldn’t help Tina even if she were dying. They were just trying to prove a point; they were trying to reveal how cold and shallow Anna truly was.
But they didn’t expect Anna to taste the blood and reveal that it was fake. It was completely out of character for this rogue.
Was she still a rogue?
“So, why am I here?” Wilson asked the girls, staring between their scheming faces.
Ella grinned.
“Because you have connections, Wilson,” Ella told him. “We need your help to attack Anna, once and for all.”
“Why would I do that?” Wilson asked.
Typically, there would be payment involved in such a plan. However, now that Anna has proved to be more powerful than they originally thought, there was going to be even more payment involved for the effort on Wilson’s end.
“Because once she’s broken into small bits, she’s going to be helpless and lonely. That’s when you can take her for yourself. Have sex with her and use her body as you please,” Ella offered with a sly grin.
His eyes widened.
“And if she resists me?” Wilson asked.
“She won’t. We will give you money to give to her in exchange for her body. She’s going to be so broken and shit out of luck that she will have no choice but to accept your money,” Ella told him.
He thought about it for a moment before smiling.
“You have a deal.”

Wilson managed to do some research and dig up information about a childhood classmate of Anna’s. Sarry.
Wilson paid money to Barry and convinced him to make a statement about how Anna has always been poor. He mentioned that she used to have sex with her classmates and charged them 100 dollars for her body.
Using his media equipment, Wilson managed to photoshop many different pictures of Anna. Some of them were nude images, but all of them were with different guys. Wilson stared at his work well done, smiling at himself that he managed to forge pornographic images of Anna.
“Did you do the deed?” Ella asked him.
Wilson smiled and showed her the images he created and the statements from Barry. Her eyes widened as she grabbed the photos.
“Oh my moon goddess,” she breathed. “This is brilliant.”
