A FEW DAYS LATERBaking cupcakes is not my thing. I am not a woman who spend my free time in the kitchen figuring out a new recipe. I am far from being feminine, the only thing I am good at is holding a gun and knife. I spent my free time in training to sharpen my skill. I'm easily get bored with womanly activities. But then, that doesn't mean I can't make cookies. I can even pretend like a fragile and gentle woman who seems get along with the kitchen stuffs just like what a normal wife can do.I mentally laugh with that thought and shrug it off because I couldn't concentrate with what I'm doing. Just like what I've said, I'm making cupcakes. I don't know what got into me, it just that I wake up yesterday morning thinking that maybe I should try doing something new. Obviously this is what I'm referring as 'something new'. I've been searching tutorial online for me to do the basic. Eredia try to offer me some help but I decline. She even suggested that I should ask the family chef to

"I want to see you as much as you want to see me, darling..."I couldn't stop my smile. I can feel the fluttering sensation in my stomach. The butterfly effect that I didn't knew possible for me to experience. I could hear the small buzzer signal in the corner of my head, sending warning that I am getting off track with the path I'm taking. But then, I wanted to breath in this beautiful feeling. This is my first time getting experience something like this. An emotion that I couldn't just simply put into words, an emotion that couldn't just define so easily. It feels like there is a strong connection between me and Sain. A connection that bond us together. This is not about our deal, it's not about the contract. It's more than that."See you there, then" I whisper still feel giddy inwardly."Take care, don't be stubborn and just follow what Pierro or Nicolai instructed to you. They know what will they do for your safety, alright?" He said almost sound like my father, a tone that is la

I press my lips together. Sain is holding my wrist as he lead me the way to I don't know where are we going. I could feel how furious he is but his grip is not tight enough to hurt me, as a matter of fact his hand feels soft and gentle to my skin it's just that, I know that he is not in the mood. We enter the elevator at the end of the fancy hallway. I think this elevator is exclusively for him or perhaps it's for the executive. Silence is deafening between us, he's still holding my wrist although we're the only one inside the elevator. Sain is not uttering a word but he's anger is too evident in his face. There is a slight creased plastered on his forehead and his jaw is clenching from time to time while his eyes is blazing in fire.The elevator stop and then the door open. I was not able to know what floor we stop because my whole attention is focus on my so called husband doesn't want to missed even just a small detail of his expression. He pulled me again with him, I saw a man we

My gaze stay on the close door thinking how long Sain will stay outside. After a moment of silence I start to take a step and roam around Sain Czar's office. I check every corner to make sure that there is no camera inside or maybe a wire tapping devices. After I finish doing it and confirm that I have nothing to worry, I walk towards the glass wall that made me saw the entire city. I stare outside for a short moment before I dial Enzo's digit.I didn't wait for a long second because after one ring, Enzo answer the call and spoke my name."Herravie," there is a hint of uncertainty in his tone that instantly put creased on my forehead.He doesn't sound calm, I think something happen. I didn't call fo quite sometime. After what happen to Laurent's burial, I was not able to reach them because I was stuck inside the Ildefonso's Residence. Also I become irresponsible. Yeah, I refuse to call them and focus on the idea of how I will fit as Sain Czar's wife."Did something happen?" I query in

"You had a power over him, always remember that."I had a power over him? If that is true then I could consider it as an advantage to my mission. But then that would be impossible, I mean why would he let someone like me to have a power over him? That doesn't make sense."Signora doesn't believe you," Pierro laugh mockingly.He is almost laying on the bed with his position. He looks comfortable though which I guess he used to come here that's why he is acting like that. Vincer laugh with him that made Nicolai scratch the back of his head."I am telling the truth" he insist, frowning a bit.I smile at him and smoothen my hair with my palm. It becomes my habit since I start pretending as Selena Castania. I think it was because I was always reminded with Mrs. Castania to look nice and presentable all the time. Most importantly I should be mindful with my hair.I am not that kind of woman, honestly I don't really care what will people say about me or about my looks. My life doesn't revolv
