Chapitre 106: A Curse

[Elise's POV]

“ELISE!”

Rosco's booming voice startles me from a light doze, ruining any semblance of sleep I may have gotten after shifting around for hours to get comfortable.

Grumbling, I begin to move again, searching for the perfect spot so I can take a cat nap before breakfast is served.

“Elise!” He repeats, finally reaching my cell.

“Sorry, Elise isn't home right now; please state your business and then go away.”

“Don't you dare fucking play with me right now.” Rosco growls, grabbing my bars and making them groan. “You better fucking answer what I'm about to ask you.”

“Is that how you speak to a woman?” I ask, prying one eye open to look at his rage-filled face.

“I would hardly say you're a woman.”

“Really?” I giggle, opening my other eye and getting to my feet. “Would you like to see whether or not I am?”

As I speak, I move forward, and when I'm inches away from Rosco, I hook my fingers in my pants, preparing to remove them.
