She climbed out of the car, ignoring the stench that surrounded her. Ruby was used to the scent, and had often seen men and women using the corridors as a toilet.

“What the fuck is that smell?”

“Human waste,” she said, running up the steps.

“Ugh, disgusting. How are you coping with that?”

“I’m used to it.”

She made her way toward her apartment, and opened up the door. The place was cold. The heating hadn’t been repaired in over a week. She was going to have to pay a special visit to her landlord if this kept going. The rent wasn’t all that much, but she at least wanted some heating. She was spoiled that way.

Humming to herself, she stepped into the room, and Oliver gasped behind her.

“What?” she asked. She saw he was staring at a cockroach, and she stamped on it. “Yeah, I’m afraid it’s not really good.”

“No, this is not happening. You’re not staying here. I don’t accept it.” He grabbed her arm, and started marching her toward the door. She grabbed the wall, amazed her hand didn’t go through it.

“Stop. What the hell are you doing?” she asked.

“You really think I’m going to let you stay here?” He looked around and scoffed. “Not a chance. I’m an asshole but not that much.”

“I have stuff here, and I have nowhere else to go.” She screamed as he picked her up, bending down to put his shoulder against her stomach, and lifting her up. “Put me down.”

“Nope.” He slapped her ass, causing her to scream his name, but he wasn’t having any of it.

Ruby wondered what the hell the problem was. They were just a few roaches.

Chapter Six

There was no way Oliver was ever letting Ruby back to he

r place. There had been actual live roaches. The real deal. Disgusting. So, he’d taken her straight back to his place, and already placed a call to his mother to buy Ruby all the girly shit she needed. He was not going shopping, not now, not ever. He didn’t do that kind of stuff.

“Seriously? You’re squeamish about a few bugs? I thought you killed people.”

“Yes, I kill people. I’m damn good at it as well.”

“It doesn’t look that way to me. You look like you’ve got some serious issues. You might want to talk to someone about that.”

“I can’t believe those damn bugs don’t bother you.”

“I guess I just have a strong stomach.”

They entered his apartment, and he grabbed her shoulders, moving her toward her new room. “This is where you live.”

“You really don’t have to do this.”

“Actually, just for my own peace of mind, I really do.” He shuddered just thinking about all of those crappy bugs crawling all over her. He was going to have nightmares tonight about that.

Gross.

“You’re a big girl.”

“My ego is more than ready to handle this.” He stepped up close to her, breathing in her scent. She smelled like maple syrup and pancakes. “You’re staying here.”

She’s a virgin.

She’s a virgin.
