Pleasure and pain, it's all the same
~ K.A.
My eyes were fixed on the kitchen's entrance after a minute surely my husband came in with the same fury in his eyes like the previous day.
But this time there was a hint of sleepiness in his them. "Vale.." he stopped midway when his eyes took in everything.
Everyone was staring at him with curiousity, I found there expressions cute and couldn't hold back my chuckle.

"Signora ci ha preparato la colazione stamattina" (Ma'am prepared breakfast for us this morning) Christine replied softly her scrambled eggs long forgotten.

I've started to decorate the mansion and as well as maintain the garden, so far everything is going good.I've ordered decorations, paintings and new furniture online and with the help of the guards arranged them.You could say the house looks complete now.

(Lunch) Christine said in a worried tone as she tried to form a correct sentence "Come join for cena. niente scuse. (Dinner. No excuses.) she said in a stern voice this time.Her Italian words in between her sentences made her look cute instead of intimidating."I'm not feeling well. Leave me be." I said for the umpteenth time.Christine put her left palm on my forehead to check my temperature, I gently took a hold of her hand and clasped it in between my hands.I smiled as I gazed at her worried features "I'll eat when I feel well." I assured her giving her a big smile.She eyed m

"So as I was saying that Ca- Mr. Romano has sent me to teach you Italian." she gave me a tight lipped smile but I didn't miss her almost referring to Alessandro as Capo.I brushed it off as I got excited at the mention of him sending Cara.
