"Which one?" The tall, muscular man says as he holds up two incredibly beautiful dresses. They were both long, the heel-length. This was totally different from Chaz's taste. He like the short dresses that go right under the butt. I wonder if he's changing.

"I need you to answer me." The man says harshly and takes a sharp step forward. I quickly take one backwards. He looks at me with a disgusted look on his face as he looks me up and down.

"You're too skinny, these won't even fit you." He says then storms out of the room, slamming the door shut. The loud slamming noise hurts my ears and I quickly cover them with my hands. I got out of the cell two days ago. I still haven't seen Chaz which is kind of weird. I feel like if you'd kidnap a person you'd at least have the decency to spend time with them.

Soon after the man left the room, he comes in again. Now with different dresses. And with a woman, she was decently short. Her long hair was dark brown and curly, but not like crazy curly. Her eyes were brown, her lips were decently thin.

"This is Lili, she is a stylist and is here to style you for the Galaxy Gala that we are attending tonight.

This is Lili

"A Gala? What for?" I ask confused and switch looks from the tall man to Lili. She was really pretty, and the way the tall man looked at her I could tell that there was something going on between them. But I'm not sure.

"No questions. Now get started we only have 2 and a half hours." The man says and leans down to give Lili a kiss, which she returns. They then exchange adorable looks as the man exits the room.

Lili brings me over to the bed where three dresses are laying gracefully on the bed.

The first option Lili picked for me was an absolutely amazing dress. It was covered in silvered diamonds that fell gracefully down the dress. It was silver at the top then transferred into a king blue color at the bottom. It was very beautiful and honestly one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen.

The second option was a big red dress. It was so big that it must weigh a couple of kilograms. It has a beautiful deep red color that really reminds me of mars. Lili seemed to like it too as she was practically drooling over the dress. It was also one of the prettiest dresses I've ever seen in my whole entire life. It must have costed big money. I run my hands over the hem of the dress slowly and carefully, concerned that it'll break of the touch from my fingers.

My breath hitches in my throat and my heart stops beating as I see the third option. This is hands down the most beautiful dress ever made. It gave sparkly Moon vibes from its light grey color and how it was soaked in crystals and diamonds. It was also big but a little heavier than the red one. I am absolutely speechless and Lili can tell.

"Beautiful isn't it?" She says and looks at me, but not turning her head. My eyes are still glued to the stunning dress as I reply.

"It's.. glorious." I say and give the dress a little smile. I don't want to blink, afraid that if I do, it will disappear.

"It is indeed." Lili says and sighs. She then puts the other two dresses back into the incredibly humongous walk-in closet.

Tears begin to form in my eyes as I look at my reflection with the dress on. I feel beautiful. This is the kind of dress that would make anyone look and feel incredibly amazing.

But I instantly get a bad feeling that something terrible is going to happen while I wear it. My heart begins to feel heavy and suddenly I feel the urge to rip the dress off of my body. But of course I find some lame excuse for taking the dress off.

Why do I feel this way? What is going to happen?

You never know, maybe I'll escape Chaz and find Dante.

If I hate it so much here, why do I feel so grateful for all the things I am able to get?
