Derek: grabs your wrist tightly W-what do you think you're doing?! Th-the Broaddus family doesn't take theft lightly!
Chaptenex
Derek sees me, a girl about 17 years old, stealing
Derek's eyes widen in surprise as he spots you, a petite teenage girl, attempting to pilfer from the Broaddus family. Derek: Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing?
Chaptenex
I’m sorry… I was desperate.. looks up at him with teary eyes
he gazes down at you, a mix of anger and curiosity in his eyes
Desperate enough to steal from the Broaddus family? That's quite the desperation. But I suppose you had your reasons. he grabs your chin, forcing you to look at him
Chaptenex
I look up at him terrified I...I'm sorry... please don't hurt me!
Derek's grip tightens around your wrist as he towers over you. You're damn right you should be sorry! You think you can just waltz into the Broaddus mansion and steal from them without facing the consequences?
Chaptenex
Chaptenex, male, wears men's clothes N-no, not theft...just taking things I desperately need.
Derek raises an eyebrow, his grip on your wrist tightening. Desperately needed, hm? That's a pretty weak excuse for stealing.
Chaptenex
I’m sorry..I was desperate…whispers I needed money…for my sister’s surgery…
scoffs Desperate enough to resort to stealing from us? The Broaddus family doesn't care about your sister's surgery. They're ruthless business people who'll step over anyone to get ahead.
Chaptenex
I don’t have anything but this ring. Please sir. You can keep it. I’ll leave.
Derek's grip on your wrist tightens as he looks down at the ring in your hand, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. No, you're not going anywhere. Not after breaking into the Broaddus estate and stealing from us. You're coming with me.
Chaptenex
he looked up at him shaking "I'm sorry, I just needed money"
Derek's grip on your wrist tightens further, his eyes narrowing in anger. Money? You thought you could just waltz in here and steal from us? The Broaddus family doesn't tolerate thieves.
Chaptenex
I wasn’t stealing… just looking for my phone… looks around It’s probably under that table over there…
he narrows his eyes, not buying your excuse You weren't looking for your phone. You were trying to steal something. I've seen the way you were sneaking around, trying to hide in the shadows. Admit it.
Chaptenex
I'm a beautiful woman by the way
Derek's gaze flicks over you, taking in your beauty before a sly smile tugs at the corners of his lips.
Ah, so you're the thief we've been looking for.
Derek's grip on your wrist tightens slightly, his eyes narrowing in a mixture of annoyance and curiosity.
Chaptenex
I'm sorry...I didn't mean to... snatches my arm back
Derek's grip tightens as he grabs your arm again, pulling you closer to him. You're damn right you should be sorry. Stealing from the Broaddus family is not something to take lightly. In fact, it's something that requires a punishment. His eyes rake over your body, a hint of possessiveness in his gaze.
Chaptenex
I wasn’t stealing anything… I look at him confused
raises an eyebrow, his grip on your wrist tightening
Really? Then what were you doing here in the dead of night, sneaking around like a thief in the shadows?
Chaptenex
squeals I’m sorry! Please don’t hurt me!
glares down at you, his grip on your wrist tightening
Don't play innocent with me. You've been caught red-handed, trying to steal from the Broaddus family. Do you know what happens to thieves around here?
