30 days in captivity Should I give him a second chance?
“Dinner! Just us two!” I exclaimed in surprise.“Yes.” He replied still with his smile. “I told you I want you to teach me how to be gentle towards you. I want to be nice to you, I hope you would accept my offer and go on tonight’s dinner with me.”I was totally confused, more confused than I previously was. Should I accept or decline? I was so unsure of what to do.“Cassandra, I know you must have second thoughts so it’s up to you.” Is he for real. Usually he doesn’t ask for my permission but why now. Was he ever sincere with everything he said, is this a dream or reality? “I will be outside waiting, it’s 6:30pm already. I will wait for you outside till 8:30pm, but if you don’t come out I will take it as you decline and I won’t bother you about.”I froze still. This can’t be real, there’s no way he is serious about this right?He looked at his worst watch and then back at me. “Well then, if you would excuse me. I will proceed outside.” He turned around and left.I pinched myself hard
30 days in captivity Michael wants me dead
Celia walked right in, I knew she was going to come but I didn’t have the strength to listen to her pet talks.She looked at me and noticed I wasn’t ready to be engaged in a conversation. “I guess I will have to come back later then, breakfast will be ready in a short time. I will let you know once the dining is all set.”“Do you think I should give him a chance?” I knew I wasn’t ready for some pet talk but I couldn’t help being bothered by him, I have to do something. “I have tried everything I can to make him angry and mad at me but yet he has been calm, way too calm. Should I keep it up or give him a chance?” I looked at her as I hoped for her to give me a good reply.“I don’t know what to say. I already told you the kind of person he is, it’s up to you to decide if you wish to give him a chance or not.” She spoke out and left.“I can’t keep this up. What do I do?” I muttered.Soliloquizing, a thought sparked in my head. “Fine, I will ask him out to dinner and thereafter, I will as
30 days in captivity Mariano’s surprise
I arrived back to Mariano’s mansion after my little meeting with Michael. Alighted from the vehicle, I walked in slowly into the house. He was seated on the couch dressed in a black blazer suit, he turned around and found me by the door as I walked in.“You are back. Welcome home.” He said with smiles on his face. I spoke not a word to him while he happily and excitedly tried to hug me close to himself, but seeing my facial expression and mood he withdrew from me. “What’s wrong? What happened?”I stopped walking and looked at him. I was eager and tempted to ask him why he had to kill Michael’s brother just because of me. I was his little puppet and masters do not bother what happens to their puppet even if it breaks or gets completely damage.“It’s nothing.” I finally voiced out.“What do you mean? You look so dark and gloomy.”“Mariano I am fine.” He stared at me for a few seconds.“Okay fine. I will assume everything is okay and you are just tired.”“Thank you, I will head up stairs
30 days in captivity An unexpected feeling
Mariano’s surprise īī: an unexpected feelingJust after we finished dinner. I sat down comfortably on the chair for I have eaten to my full. I had just finished a total of eight plates of pernil and cazuela, you must probably think I am a glutton but whenever it comes to my favorite dish, there’s no holding back and most importantly it was well made and seasoned properly just like how my mother makes it but the taste was a bit different from hers.I looked at Mariano who on the other hand was staring at me uncontrollably. “Wow, I wasn’t told that you have quite an appetite for a girl.” He teases“You are trying to mock me, aren’t you?”“Nope, I won’t even dare.” He chuckled. “Well, since we are done here, how about we go for dessert.”“Right,” I paused for a moment. “I wonder what surprise it could be this time.” I said bluntly and watched him closely if he would spill the bean.“You are about to find out soon enough.” He gave a mischievous looking smile.We got back into the house th
30 days in captivity Chapter thirty
Just as a sat down on the bed, deep in my own thought. I had no idea when the door opened up and he walked to me.“Good morning,” I turned around to the sound of the voice and it was his. Mariano had once appeared before me and this time, with a tray in his hand. “I brought you a little something. Breakfast in bed maybe.” He smiled.“Mariano…” I called out softly.“Are you okay. You face has been quite red since last night. Did you catch a cold or something?” All I did was stare at me for it was the only thing I could do. First was the surprise last night, the kiss and now breakfast in bed, something I have always wanted. He placed his hand on my forehead. “That’s odd, you seem just fine but anyways, let me call the nurse to check up on you.”He dropped the tray at the edge of the bed and took out his phone. Just as he dialed a number, Celia walked in on us. “You made it just in time. I need you to watch her, I am going to call the nurse to check on her. Her face has been red all nigh
30 days in captivity Mariano's invitation
I woke up after a long nap, still in bed I looked at the windows. The rays of the sunlight had completely diminished, dusk was closing in.I turned my head to the other of the room. “Oh my God!” I exclaimed out loud. “You startled me.”“Sorry, didn’t mean to.” He replied. “How are you feeling, I called the nurse and she told me that you were fine. She ran a couple of test and they all came out okay. Besides, your face isn’t red anymore.”“Yeah, I suppose everything is okay now.”“Well since you are okay, I should probably let you rest and gain a lot of energy against tomorrow.”“Why? Is anything going on?” I asked with so much interest.“It’s nothing much, I just wanted you to come with me to somewhere I like to be and there is a grant event occurring there tomorrow night and I was invited to be there, so I wanted us to go together.”“Where is the place you are talking about?” I asked still curious.“Ohhh, it’s in Paris. You must have heard of the biggest opera in Paris, the Opera bas
30 days in captivity A night together 1:- The opera
Chapter thirty-twoThe operaI sat down in front of the mirror, I was dressed in a white double V-neck cocktail gown. I stared right into the mirror as I looked at my own reflection which stared right back at me.“What have I done?” I let out a disappointed sigh. The thought of going back to him crossed my mind but I had already said yes to him and cancelling may not be the right thing to do. “What am I going to do?” I asked myself in the quiet room.After much staring at my reflection, I began to apply a bit of light make-up and soon I was done. I walked out of the room to meet with him, he was already set and was dressed in his white tuexdo suit, the same suit I first saw him with.Gently I approached him, he was ready and we but entered the suv and drove off to his personal private hanger.His private plane was parked with it's door already opened like it was expecting us. Alighted from the suv, we made it to the plane and boarded it.The inside was amazing, I was left speechless a

I clenched on to his hand firmly, I just couldn’t withdrew my hand from his but wanted to keep holding on to it.Reaching it’s peak, the opera finally came to a close. He withdrew his hand as he joined the crowd to applaud the awesome display, I felt the warmness of his grip fading as both of our hands separate. It felt like something was taken away from inside me.“Cassandra.” Hearing his voice, I was drawn back to reality as I had been spacing out all through. “Are you okay? You have waters in your eyes.”“What!” softly I exclaimed and wiped off the waters.“It must have been the show. My sister always have the same reaction as you whenever we visit the opera, she would say it touches her soul.” He made a smile which last few seconds and his face was covered in pity.Celia did tell me about his sister and what happened. I guess he must have really loved and cared about her so much.“Well, that is the first. The second is about to start but there’s somewhere I want us to be.”“And wh
