I followed, more like allowed myself to be dragged by Mr. Hamilton, down to where he parked his car. Which was quite far from where he caught me.
So the man ran all the way there just to catch me? I found it amusing. He left his expensive car, which I could bet cost way more than a million dollars, to catch me, who only cost one million? What if his car got stolen or worse, wrecked? Didn't he think about it before chasing me? But then again, rich people have no worries. They're rich.
"Where are you taking me to?" I asked once inside his car.
"To my house." He answ curtly, getting onto the driver's seat.
I was surprised when I saw Mr. Hamilton open the door to the driver's seat and hop in.
I thought rich men always had drivers or chauffeurs to drive them about. Why was he doing it himself? Could it be that Mr. Hamilton was not as rich as he portrayed himself to be? I glanced at the man on the driver's seat, carefully scrutinizing his every expression. Or could it be that he just loved to drive himself?
The car had begun to move, very smoothly I must add. It was either there were no bumps in the road, unlike the town I came from, or Mr. Hamilton was a really good driver. I kept staring at him, and slowly I got lost in his manly beauty.
"I can feel your gaze; like what you see?" I heard him ask.
What... I sat up immediately. "I wasn't looking at you". I mumbled in defense. I heard him smirk. He then glanced at me for like a second before looking back at the road. "Am I that good-looking, that you drool just by looking at me?" He said with his eyes still on the road. I was drooling? Immediately wiped my mouth with my hands to check, I sighed in relief when my palm wasn't wet.
Liar. I muttered.
My eyes started to get heavy after a few minutes. The ride was too smooth, and I felt like I was being rocked to sleep.
I raised my legs up to the chair, crouching in a ball formation on the chair. The cold was getting to me, and I was too proud to tell the annoying, stingy driver to turn off the AC. Once I got into a comfortable position, my heavy eyes finally closed, and I fell asleep.
...
"Hey... Hey... Wake up". I felt someone shaking me and chanting wake up, but my eyelids were too heavy to open. "Mmm... What... " I mumbled, hoping the person would just leave me alone and let me sleep. The next thing I felt was a warm hand on my head. I brought my face closer to the heat.
"Shit! You're boiling". I heard the person exclaim, but my mind was too focused on the heat from his palms. "I can't believe I'm doing this". The person whispered to himself before removing his hand from my head.
My warmth was gone, and I badly wanted to open my eyes, but they were too heavy, and I was feeling really uncomfortable. I wanted to shout, but my voice only came out in little whispers. "Help... Me". The next thing I felt was my body being lifted up and carried, then I completely blacked out.
My eyes flicked open slowly to my surroundings. I was in a big room with very few furniture. It looked so clean and new, like it had never been used before. I panicked when I realized I was not in my room or any of the other two rooms in my father's house.
"Where am I?" I sat up quickly to assess my surroundings even more. The walls were covered in white wallpaper, same while the floors were in black. There were three doors, each at different corners of the wall. Despite the lack of furniture, the room was nice, It was quite minimalist, but still looked pretty expensive.
How did I get here? I questioned myself, trying to remember. I started from the last thing I remembered, which was my father giving me permission to go to the local market to get some supplies I wanted to use in my new project.
Then I remembered being chased by men in black, the auction... Mr. Hamilton! "Where did that man bring me to..." I muttered to myself as I tried to get out of bed, but I was struck by a splitting headache. Shit! I cursed, holding my head in pain.
While I was still holding my head in pain, I heard one of the three doors open. I turned to check the intruder, still holding my head in pain.
"Don't get out of bed". A beautiful lady in a white doctor's coat walked up to me and cautioned once she saw my legs were already out of the blankets. "Where am I? What are you doing to me?" I asked the doctor
"Please relax, you're fine". The doctor held my hands to calm me down.
" You caught a fever but you'll be okay in a couple
days, all you need is rest. ". The doctor continued.
A fever? This strong headache was because I caught a fever?
Back in my town I hardly got sick except for the occasional ulcer cramps, I was always healthy.
But today, or yesterday... From the look of things, I was sure it was morning... Was different. I had nothing to eat the entire day, which was yesterday, I was also naked almost the entire day, and my body was exposed to a heavy wind and AC.
I was bound to get sick.
I looked up to the pretty doctor who was looking at me funny.
What? I was tempted to ask, but I needed her help.
" Thank you, but I'm fine now and I want to leave. "
" I'm sorry, but you can't leave right now Ms, you need to rest and eat ". The doctor shook her head.
" But ... " I wanted to argue but was cut of by the opening of the door again.
And there he was, Mr Hamilton.
He shoved his hands in his pockets and rested his back on the wall.
" But nothing. You'll rest until you've regained your strength before you begin your work".
Work?
What did he men's by work?
Could it be that he was just treating me so I'll he strong when he needs me to be his sex slave?
I became tensed.
" Which work? I don't remember agreeing to work for you". I shouted nervously.
My temper threatening to get out of control.
Mr Hamilton just hooked his lips up in a mocking smirk. He then turned to the pretty doctor who was watching us the whole time.
" You may leave Amelia". He said to the doctor.
So her name was Amelia, pretty. The name fitted her perfectly.
Amelia nodded at Mr Hamilton and proceeded to the door. Before she left, she took another look at me then at Mr Hamilton.
" Alexander, she needs her rest and food before she's capable of doing anything".
He chuckled.
Alexander... The handsome, stingy, wicked and promiscuous man name was Alexander.
The name fitted him, it sounded high-class, handsome and promiscuous, so it fitted him well.
Do their parents know how their child would tun out before naming them? I suddenly thought. Completely forgetting how serious where I was and who I was with was.
" I know, I heard you when you said it the first time. You can greet Lily on your way out." He gestured to the door.
Amelia looked at me one more time and smiled.
It was as if she was trying to tell me everything would be alright, but something was telling me otherwise.
" How are you feeling? " Alexander asked as he walked the moment Amelia closed the door.
I glared at him so he would stop coming close but the man just didn't care.
"Look here, I'm grateful that you saved me from the auction center and also for treating me, but I'm not going to be your sex slave" I declared boldly.
Alexander paused in his movement before he burst into laughter.
" Sex slave? Who said I needed you for that? "He asked while laughing.
I must confess he loved even better when laughing, but I couldn't let myself me swayed by his looks now.
" Then what do you want me for? "
" I heard what you said back at the auction market. You didn't come there willing like the others, bit I also know that the market never takes anyone that doesn't already belong to them ".
I wrinkled my brows in confusion.
He took a seat close to me.
" Don't you want to know who did this to you? Who sold you off and why?" He asked. I feel into a deep thought.
Of course I wanted to know. But why would Alexander help me? I was more or less a stranger to him.
" Why do you want to help me?" I asked and he raised an eyebrow.
I rolled my eyes in understanding.
"Ok... What do you want in return?" I rephrased the question and this time a smile came up to his lips.
" Be my daughter's maid".
"Be my daughter's maid." I blinked, trying to decipher his words. Was it code for something?"I don't get it." I shook my head, confusion etched on my face.Alexander crossed his legs, his gaze piercing mine. "What don't you get?" he asked, his tone firm but curious.I took a deep breath, my nerves tensed. His stare was unsettling, making my heart race. I clutched the blanket, my eyes darting to my clothes. I was no longer wearing Alexander's suit jacket but a silk extremely comfortable nightgown.My eyes widened as I looked to look at Alexander. "Did you..." I trailed off, my voice barely audible.Alexander's lips curled into a mocking smile. "What if I did?"I could feel the heat rising up to my face. I didn't could be embarrassment, or anger or both, but all I knew was that I was wronged. Alexander had seen me naked few hours ago, but that still didn't give him right to undress me.My temper flared and I lost control of my mouth. "You perverted..." " It wasn't me". We said at t
Lilly left few minutes after she threatened me and gave me a scare. As much as I hated to admit it, that girl was as scary as hellHow can someone be so cute, yet so vicious at the same goddamn timeI got up immediately, to look around. The place was beautiful, and huge. I had never even visited a place like this in my dreams not to talk of in real lifeI had less than two hours to get ready for the day. But for a person who was used to getting ready in under ten minutes, two hours felt like a whole lot of timeI got down from the bed, taking in the beauty of the room. Everything was so gorgeous and screaming expensive. I saw a white door by the corner of the room, and with me being me, I went there and opened iI gasped in amazement at what I saw. It was a fully furnished walk in closet. Everything was there, rating from the shoes to bags to the clothes... Even the underwear, everything was therAnd what surprised me the most was that, they were all my sizHow did Alexander know my s
After the 'act' with Lilly in her room, the girl listed a lot of ground rules. Some of which I was not able to catch because I was still shocked by the fact that the girl was a good actress. By the time she was done, we had taken over three hours and I was only able to scam three rules. ' Don't mess with my hair: You're not allowed to touch it no matter what Always be at my Beck and call: If I call you and you don't answer, we have a problem. And last one which I found very absurd,Don't fall for me dad! 'The first rule, was understandable. The girl had golden beautiful locks that I feared I would ruin if I touched it, but it would feel good to run my hand in it, but I was going to keep that one. The second rule, that was a typical spoilt brat move. Me, Mia have to always be at a little girl's beck and call. I felt my pride and self dignity disappear when she said that. I had to bit my lips to prevent myself from saying something that would make her tell her dad something terrib
Mia's POVHow dare they?What did they think I am to them? Huh, their fucking property?I am a freaking adult! They had no right to sell me like a used object in an auction house. My family I thought was just poor, but we had our dignity, yet they just sold me out?I knew they had always loved my older sister more than me. She was the obedient one, and the nice one and also the most pretty. She was the breadwinner of the family while I was just their second child. "Dargh!!" I screamed loudly. Using my hands to cover my ears. " Is that my phone?" Alice asked pointing at the broken phone that I threw on the floor. "Er...I want to be alone right now". I murmured rather angrily as I took my frustration elsewhere. "Mia, you're buying me a new phone!" I heard Alice yell after me and I snorted. Where the hell was I going to get money for a new phone? I let my legs lead me back into the house and inside Lilly's room. Why did it lead me here? Probably because it was the only place in t
" What about my Lilly?" Alexander asked dropping the papers in his hands, giving me his full attention. The boldness I had gathered to knock on the door suddenly disappeared as he stared at me." Well... Er..." I stammered. " If you don't have anything reasonable to say, leave". Alexander resumed his gaze at the large paperwork in front of me. How should I begin?Should I... I glanced up at Alexander who was behaving like I was no longer in his study. I was already here, let's just get this done and over with. " Do you know what's going on with her?" I asked after a few moments. Alexander hands scribbling something on a paper froze, then he looked up at me. " What do you mean? " " Lilly came back home today in tears. Well she wasn't exactly in crying, but I could tell she had cried. Her eyes were red and puffy and her voice hoarse. This isn't the first time this has happened, I noticed it for a few days now. "Now Alexander's attention was fully on me. He had dropped the pen in
I stared at Lilly's door for minutes without moving. Today was a Saturday, and would be the best time for me to get to know Mia like Alexander suggested. But... What the hell am I going to say to the girl? Alexander was out... Went to work on a Saturday, a sign of a typical work addict, so Lilly was in her room all by herself. Ok, I'm doing this. I stretched my hands and opened the door ever so slightly. Lilly was seated on the floor, concentrating on something so intensely. " What are you doing?" I peeped into Lilly's room from the slightly ajar door. The little witch looked up at me from her position, before she looked away. " What are you doing here? I didn't call for you"Yeah you didn't. Alright Mia, you're already here, so let's do this. I opened the door completely and walked into the room. " I just thought, you know... to check up on you, see how you're doing ". Mia shrugged her shoulders before continuing what she was doing. Walking closer to her, I looked down at
Third person POV. It's been weeks since Lilly and Mia became friends. Lilly began warming up to her slowly, and Mia began liking the little girl's company. The girl friendship with her came with a lot of benefits, one of them being that Mia no longer lacked food. No matter the hate the other servants in the house feel for her, they couldn't do anything, especially when Lilly backed her up. Alexander on the other hand, was always at work. He was yet to see the new friendship formed my his daughter and Lilly... But someone else had already noticed. " So... You and the 'little witch' are on good terms now?" Alice asked air coating the little witch. She had noticed that Mia no longer complained about her as often as she normally did. " Well... " Mia shrugged. The girl was good company, and could be really fun to be with, but there was no way she's admitting liking her. It would hurt her pride way too much. " We just came to an even ground". Alice raised her brow at Mia. She didn'
Mia stared at Victoria refusing to back down, Alice in the other hand had begun saying her prayers. She knew the kind of person Victoria was, it would be a miracle if both of them didn't get sacked today. " Not only do you dare to stop me from correcting my staff, you also talked back at me. Who in the hell do you think you are?" Victoria yelled, her face crunched in anger and her chest moving up and down quickly. She was shocked at the audacity of the new maid. No one, not even her brother had ever talked to her this way before in her life!" Who I am doesn't matter. Just because we work for your brother doesn't mean you can speak to us or even hit us any how you please". Mia said calmly, secretly enjoying how riled up Victoria was getting. Alice on the other hand was having a heart attack. Mia was making things worse for them, why was she not seeing it. " What is going on here?" Lilly walked in on the situation, her footsteps slowed down when she saw her aunt. " Aunt Victoria..
