Ilayda's POV :
Today was a new day I tried to forget what happened yesterday and move on with my life because I don't need any extra drama in my life, that if I can call it a life. Since that awful night, I couldn't carry on with my life like nothing happened because everything I had was taken away from me and I couldn't do anything; the day my parents were taken away from me.
At this moment in my life, I stand with nothing; no family, no friends, except Nona who is the closest thing to family and friends I have, I have no home, no love, I just work and breathe, sometimes death seems to hold much more mercy than this life that I'm leading. What can I possibly do with my existence; the answer remained unknown to me.
I went to the kitchen to start working because it's the only thing that I have to know in life, this works and I can't let it go.
Mr. and Mrs. Elfonso are still not back from their voyage and they will not be back not in two weeks and I have to deal with the problem called Christian on my own.
Thank goodness that Nona was back from seeing her family and now she is with me.
It's not that I'm afraid of Christian it's just that he makes me feel things I've never experienced before and I know that a person like him would never exchange my feelings and in the end, it's me who will be heartbroken not him and that's what scares me the most.
I gave myself up to work and I made sure that I don't come across Christian; whenever I hear him coming to a room I run to another one, I make meals before he comes and only clean after he lefts and that's how I've been avoiding him for the past couple of days and it's way better.
Today was the same too just working and avoiding him and surprisingly the day went super quick, so after I was done with everything I decided to call it a night and head to my room get a shower then go to still.
I was just done with my shower. It was so relaxing so I spent more time there. As I was about to open my bathroom door I noticed that the light in the bedroom was on, but I remembered putting them off, I always do because I like showering with minimal lights. Anyway, I opened the door and I said that I was shocked at was I saw would be an understatement.
Christian was sitting-no laying on my bed looking at me with a smirk on his stupid face.
"W...what the hell are you doing in my room" right now I was beyond angry.
He kept looking at me with that stupid smile on his face I didn't know why he was smiling that way.
Then it hit me
My towel was so short if I bend over just a little bit, you can see everything my other towel was in the washing machine, and honestly, I never thought that someone might come here.
"Why are you so red baby" Christian stood up and started taking slow steps toward me.
"I'm ...I'm not ...get out " I was so nervous I hated being in a situation like this
"What is it? Cat got your tongue angel?" he was still coming toward me while I was taking steps back until I hit the wall.
Damn it!
"You see babe I was very upset this couple of days and do you know why" he was talking very low and he was so close to me I had chills running down my body.
I wanted to move away but he put his hands on both sides keeping me from leaving.
I moved my head to say NO because I could not form a word.
"Well I will gladly explain to you" he came even closer as possible closing any gap between my chest and us was glued to his as my heart was beating so fast I am sure I felt it.
"You see it all started two days ago when I woke up, I went downstairs to see someone but I couldn't find him. Then I went looking for that certain someone all over the house but I could not find him yet I knew that that person, was inside the house because I could smell their sweet perfume all over the house. Therefore, I waited until lunchtime and somehow I miss that person again and then again, at dinnertime.
"the next day the same thing happened but you see I really wanted to see that person so badly and I miss them so damn much that I couldn't keep myself from entering this room so, here I am" He stopped talking and then kept looking at me.
Wow, that was not expected I have zero ideas on what to say.
"I...I can see ...hmm...but the thing is Nona is not here I think you will find her in the kitchen and don't worry this time you will find her."
"Funny ...very funny... But quit playing" Damn it did not work.
I was trying to get myself out of this situation smoothly but I guess that did not happen. I looked at his face and he was not smiling anymore, he looked serious and then suddenly,
He kissed me
Passion, desire, love so many emotions emerged in just one kiss.
Ilayda's POV:I was shockedI swear I did not see that one coming.He kissed me.He freaking kissed me. I do not know what to do right now.I pushed him hard because he was holding me so tightly."Stop, what are you doing? No!" the words coming out of my mouth expressed my refusal yet my body and my heart were totally on a different level, they were not refusing it actually they were welcoming the warmth I felt when I was with him, the safety and peace that washed over me when he grabbed me. However, I was not going to admit not even if they pull a gun on my head, because I know that this is wrong. F
Christians POV:I didn't know what to think, I was so shocked when I saw her standing at my door. She said she wanted to give me an answer I was so scared, I was sweating like hell, just hoping that she wouldn't refuse and she would actually give me a chance. I did not know what I would feel nor do if she says no.She looks nervous too, she was playing with her fingers I could sell that it wasn't easy for her either to tell me her decision,"I... came here to give you an answer you should know, that it's a little hard for me because I usually don't trust people that much I don't know if I trust you either but I think...I think that I'm willing to try." She said the last part with her eyes closed, god she is so cute, and then it hit me, what she said.I was shocked. Happy, but I am still shocked. I somehow thought that she would say no I was so scared. However, she said yes, I didn't know what to say so I let
Ilayda's POV:Mr. and Mrs. Elfonso came back home a couple of days ago. Mr. Elfonso went to the company as soon as he arrived and Mrs. Elfonso had a gathering with her friends at home, where she started to tell them about all the places she went to and all the expensive things she got. You know how can be a typical rich middle-aged woman.At the end of the day, I found myself in my room, this day went by pretty normal and I was a little tired so after taking my shower I went straight to my bed to get some sleep.I woke up terrified, the same as every other night, because of my nightmare but as I was trying to get out of my bed, something was pushing me and keeping me from getting up. I turned the lamp on my nightstand and I saw Christian, lying by my si
Ilayda's POV :It's been a week since Mrs. Elfonso spoke to me about the thing between Christian and me, and since that time I've been trying to stay away from him as much as possible, of course, I didn't tell him what his mother said I couldn't, and I couldn't tell him that I seriously considered breaking up with him, but I tried to not let my fears conquer me, I wanted to give myself a chance, to do something for me for the first time, but I still didn't want to lose my job so was increasing the distance between us and of course it didn't go unnoticed by him and I remembered that day when he got angry at me. he came sneaking to my room in the middle of the night while I was just getting ready to go to sleep." Christian what the hell are you doing here, what if someone saw you are you crazy""I couldn't help it sorry but I just missed you so fucking much I was really going
Ilayda's POV :what the hell?WHAT. THE. HELL. DID. SHE. JUST. DO?"Excuse me, what are you doing to my brother"Maribelle seemed very upset while the two other women seemed totally happy. Christian pushed Nathalie away from him."Sorry, I just missed the touch of your lips" she was caressing his lower lip with her thumb."Nathalie, please don't ever do that again" he took a step back and I was silently thanking God."But why? We used to kiss all the time""Well, used to, but now I-" Christian was interrupted by his mother."Nathalie, why don't you go to your room and take some rest, lunch will be served soon" Nathalie let go of Christian."You" I looked at Mrs. Elfonso and she was addressing me."What are you standing there doing? Go get their thing up to their rooms and them come to get lunch ready" I nod and went upstairs, Christian was giving me an apologetic look.
Ilayda's POV:Yesterday I fell asleep in Christian's arms, it felt like home I was at peace again. He was still asleep when I woke up and kept studying every little detail of his face, his forehead, his eyebrows, his long lashes, his soft shiny lips. God, he is so... beautiful.Sometimes I look at him and wonder what does he see in me I was a disaster while he's at the top, but I do know one thing; I'm falling deeper and deeper for him every single second. I just felt the urge to kiss him so I gave him a small peek in the chin trying not to wake him but he apparently started to wake up, I quickly went back to my place."You know baby this body is all yours feel free to stare as much as you want," he whispered in my ears with his husky voice which sent chills in my body."You were awake" it wasn't a question but he nods staring intensely into my eyes, I got a little embarrassed and I could feel my cheeks turning red s
Christian's POV :Every single time, this seems suspicious to me, the way she gets nervous each time Madame Dubois asks her a question, I can tell when she is lying, and she's lying each time she's been asked and I'm determined to know what she is hiding. I have the right to. I tried to be patient, and wait for her to tell me on her own. However, she never came to me; she never opened up to me. What I am about to do is bad but it is for her own sake. I LOVE this girl, and something tells me that she could be in trouble and I know her stubborn ass will never ask for help, so if I want to help her I'm going to help her in my own way, but I need to find out what is she hiding first.I went to the company, I also needed to leave the house ASAP that Nathalie girl won't let me breathe, she's like that gum stoc
Christian's POV :I did not know what to expect and this guy was taking his sweet time opening the file, he looked at me."I've never seen something like this before" he was very serious"What do you mean? What is it?" I couldn't hold it any longer I was boiling from the inside."Sir, the name you gave me, Ilayda Salvador, I was only able to find it in the orphanage records. Also, everything that has happened lately. Nothing out of the ordinary, she was given to a family but they returned her do to some trouble the guy who's supposed to be her new father wasn't good with her. When she became eighteen years old, she got out and got into the work of being a maid that is how she was hired in your house. T
