Adara
When I woke up I had almost forgotten where I was. But then I remembered last night and the neutral expression I had on my face turned sour. I sigh before I comb my hand through my hair just to find out that it was all tangled up in knots. I let out another sigh, already frustrated with the day. I get up and make my way to my bathroom and turn on the showerhead. While I wait for the water to get warm, I brush my teeth.
I step into the shower and immediately place my head under the running water, closing my eyes to calm myself down, thinking about what I would do today that didn't involve me talking to anyone today besides myself. Finished with my shower, I step out and wrap my towel around me. I go to the adjoining room on the left where it had a large shelf where I had placed all of my makeup, skin care, and bathroom products on. Since I did not plan on going anywhere, I just apply a face serum and cream to my face before I walk out to go put my clothes on.
I look up and see a pair of brown eyes glaring at me from across the room. It was none other than Rey's calculating eyes.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X6GCd6KlQ
"I'm changing. Don't you have your own room?"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PgwfYT8Je
He says nothing. Just shrugs and leans off of the bedpost before he comes closer. He circles me until he gets behind me. He's so close, I can feel each breath as he breathes on my neck. It sends a shiver down my spine and I whip myself around to face him.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡew17Jg2SPT
"What do you want?"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6d9U0RXB0j
"You look hot."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOOcR7bya1
"What?"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA4crKuzOb
"You heard me."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgObTM9ShG
"My guess is you're either high or very drunk. Get out."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDjw9SFCa9
"Make me."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyQXV6paz8
"Glady," I smile before I quickly swing my legs at his which causes him to trip and fall back on his ass. "Get. Out. Now."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILf0teLvUZ
"So bossy," he says as he gets up. "I wonder," he thinks out loud as he circles me again.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O7ztVLojW
"Wonder what?"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXLOpY7Hqt
"I wonder, how bossy you can be in bed." he grins as his fingers trail across my shoulders near my collarbone, up to the strands of my hair.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEefakFscJ
I swat his hand away and step back.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMCPcf8hMF
"Go ask your little assistant that. Although I'm sure she isn't the type to boss anyone around. I heard you with her last night. She was practically screaming the walls down. I feel sorry for the other people here trying to sleep. I'm pretty sure your own mother heard it from wherever she was."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGKt2z6bHZ
"And? Are you jealous? I could make you scream just as much," he replies with a wink.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0O5iCBHdk
"Oh God no. And no thank you, honestly I couldn't care less about who you have sex with, just try to be silent next time while I'm trying to sleep."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFnuuP0r3J
"I don't think that'll be possible."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxurGil4CR4
"Well, find somewhere else to fuck that isn't down the hall dammit. Now leave me alone, I already have enough problems as it is and I sure as hell don't need you adding to that list." I spit out before I walk away from him and pull open a few drawers to find something to wear. I grab a navy blue lounge set and match it with navy blue underwear. I grab everything, give Rey one mean glare then make my way back into the bathroom and slam the door behind me.

I make my way out of my room and down the stairs. I walk through the long hall after taking a left and I find the kitchen located there. Beyond the kitchen was a breakfast room and what I'm guessing was a family room. I go back out into the hall and make my way down another path that leads me to a huge and empty ballroom. I ended up finding random rooms that seemed a waste of space to me and a few interesting ones that I took a mental note of if I wanted to find them again later. After all the exploring I decided to return to my room and spend the rest of my day there. I go back into the kitchen to grab myself something to eat. I end up finding Rey's mother there.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMIX7KmiaQ
"Hello, beautiful! Did you sleep well? How do you like it here? Oh, come sit. I made you breakfast."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5s7rAjBdz
I was taken aback for a bit. I forgot how it felt to have a mother that cared for you. I sigh and smile at her before I sit at the kitchen island.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjVtBmDDed
"Good morning! I slept okay."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt0pLwhuOm
"Just okay? Did something keep you up? Did you get homesick?"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ro7c7uGk
I was debating whether or not I should mention what her son has been doing all night, but I decided to keep my mouth shut.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa1tSteKvE
"Yeah, homesick, that's all. But I'm better now."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFqmJvSGr1
"Good! Alright, has Rey talked to you yet? He might be a little hard to talk to at first but trust me when I say this: When he wants to, he'll treat you like a queen, and I know you might think I'm just saying that because he's my son, but no, I've seen him with other women and he treated them all differently. Loyalty, trust, and communication are the three big things for him that can make or break a relationship. He had no idea what your father was going to put you in that auction, and the fact that he abruptly spent the amount of money he did on you means something. I'm not sure but I know that there is something more."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWKM2pXKpN
"I'm not so sure about that. He told me that he only bought me to rub it in Vincenzo's face. Nothing more."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7oFKObxOt
"You both have time. You'll grow to like each other. And eventually, hopefully, love each other too." she smiles.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC17oVUNdvm
I smile back as I pick up a sliced strawberry from the fruit bowl with my fork.

Instead of sitting in my room like I originally planned, I found the library and decided to spend the rest of the day in there instead. I close the door behind me softly and turn around to look at the dimly lit room filled with large shelves. The books were everywhere. I'm pretty sure I would find a librarian hidden somewhere unde/rneath them. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if I did. I make my way deeper into the room and find the non-fiction section. I longed to find the biggest book that could take me away to another place, another world, different from my own. I find a thick book with a child on the cover. Her skin was pale, she had eyes that were fully black, and in her hands was a small dove. But it was red. Seemed interesting enough. I take the book and walk deeper into the library until I find what seemed to be some sort of couch playpen. I shrug at the interesting layout and climb inside of it. I stare at the cover of the book once more before I turn the first few pages, instantly calming my state of mind as I inhale the book's scent when I flipped through. I read for so long I wouldn't have noticed that the day was nearly over if it wasn't for the light that was dimming outside through the large window. Without thinking I reach to my side for my phone but then quickly remember that I had left it upstairs in the room. Oh well, It's not like I'll be waiting for any texts from anyone. Now that my parents pretty much threw me out to another family, they're probably much happier.
I get up and seconds later a pair of hands forces me back down. A knife to my throat.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6KWpsSEOC
"Sit back down bitch."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJiaPrxWOH
Before they can press the blade deeper into my skin I quickly take my right hand and slap the knife away then use my left to grab whoever it was to flip them over me and onto the couch seats that lay in the middle.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODfE5rtEoN
"I don't take orders from anyone."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFguY7tsV7m
It was that woman again. The bitch who seemed to cling at his side every second of the day. I flip her around and sit on her back while I twist her arms behind her then grab the knife so that she wasn't able to move nor take back her weapon.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMLlB6YKJJ
"I'm giving you five fucking seconds to tell me why you ever thought of trying to kill me before I take this knife and shove it right down your throat," I whisper in her ear with gritted teeth.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqM2jRoGXK
"I'm not telling you shit bitch."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTgm4qSsuS
"Well, I guess you wanna die then."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJf2mpMwqQR
"Do it, you won't, you're just a pussy." she laughs.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLOzg1kwpD
"Oh, you think I won't?" I say as I twist the knife in my hand.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI92SrT7kJs
"I know y-"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmjGCSjSnV
I press the blade to her arm and it cuts her lightly. She winces in pain.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeSAWMsM6a
"Next smart remark and I'll end you."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5THHyvDubG
"Tell me why you tried to kill me."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zldjBVG3S
She keeps her mouth shut. I roll my eyes. She was testing my patience and she knew it. I pull her up slightly before I slam her back down.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yNO2CxmN8
"Answer me puttana!"250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOHbAIVtVE
"Kill me! Rey will make sure your dead anyway when he finds out." she screams.
"Il Mio Fiore, stop."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDusluHWJ2
I angrily turned around to the sound of Rey's booming voice.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFYrEmwJjI
"Tell your whore to leave me the hell alone before I tear her apart."
I look at the both of them. And I remember last night.250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY75yhePc5o
"You must think this is a joke Cacciatore. You expect me to live here with this jealous cagna who hates me? You got me fucked up. Clearly she's the one who wants to have your babies. And by the looks of her she'll gladly do it too."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7qD9EYNdj
"I don't want her. I want you."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo4dWzhGCl
"Why? Seriously Why is it so hard for you to find someone else. There has got to be someone on this earth that will take you willingly."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nO8CLMeqw
"You're the one I'm marrying and that's final."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡif3kXNoBUp
"I hate you."250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSfGW1pIm3
