Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 194

When she entered the room, all the men sized her up instantly. Some licked their lips while they looked at her from head to toe. Some smirked and some frowned. But one thing was for sure, they all looked like hungry wolves who waited for their prey.

She forced herself to walk further into the room and placed the plate Erica gave her on the table in the middle of the room. She was relieved for a second that nothing was about to happen when a callous hand slithered to her waist. She heard one man chuckling beside her.

"You must be new. I've never seen you before," one of the men asked, a lewd smile occupied his face.

Carla slid her hand on her waist to remove his arm and forced herself to return his smile. "Yes, I am, sir. And if you'll let me, I'd love to set your table first."

She held her breath and turned to march to the door.

But one of the men grabbed her shoulder to stop her.

"There's no rush, my dear. The others can take care of the dishes. Come here. Sit by my side," the man invited her. He took her hand and pulled her down towards her on his lap. He was a strong man and she couldn't break free from his grasp.

Carla closed her eyes and prayed for this to be over soon. She opened her eyes to look for a way to escape. Even if she fought back, she'd be able to fight off only one or two men but she couldn't handle all of them.

And Brooke was right outside the door. He'd catch her immediately.

She racked her brain to find some way to escape when the man's hand slithered to her breast.

All sense flew out the door and Carla slapped the man on the face by instinct.

"You little bitch! I'll teach you how to act in here!" the man screamed while he rubbed the part where Carla slapped him. He grabbed her arm and threw her on the sofa.

"Now, you're gonna get it. I'll teach how to act, you whore!"

The man gritted his teeth in anger and pulled Carla's dress up to expose the white, tender skin of her thigh. Carla screamed and struggled to push her dress down.

"Get off of me!" Carla screamed in his face. Carla fought him off but he was too strong. She turned towards the table and found a corkscrew she could use. She took it without a second thought and aimed it at his face.

The long twisted piece of metal cut his cheek deep and blood flowed out.

"Ow!" The man touched the gash and winced. He looked at his fingers and was surprised to see blood.

He fumed and slapped Carla again on the face and sent her down on the floor.

"You bitch! How dare you hurt me!" the man roared.

Carla ignored the pain from the slap. She grabbed the corkscrew and rushed towards the door.

She didn't care how many men there were in the room. She needed to try to escape than be at the mercy of these devils.
