30 days in captivity An unexpected feeling
Mariano’s surprise īī: an unexpected feelingJust after we finished dinner. I sat down comfortably on the chair for I have eaten to my full. I had just finished a total of eight plates of pernil and cazuela, you must probably think I am a glutton but whenever it comes to my favorite dish, there’s no holding back and most importantly it was well made and seasoned properly just like how my mother makes it but the taste was a bit different from hers.I looked at Mariano who on the other hand was staring at me uncontrollably. “Wow, I wasn’t told that you have quite an appetite for a girl.” He teases“You are trying to mock me, aren’t you?”“Nope, I won’t even dare.” He chuckled. “Well, since we are done here, how about we go for dessert.”“Right,” I paused for a moment. “I wonder what surprise it could be this time.” I said bluntly and watched him closely if he would spill the bean.“You are about to find out soon enough.” He gave a mischievous looking smile.We got back into the house th

Just as a sat down on the bed, deep in my own thought. I had no idea when the door opened up and he walked to me.“Good morning,” I turned around to the sound of the voice and it was his. Mariano had once appeared before me and this time, with a tray in his hand. “I brought you a little something. Breakfast in bed maybe.” He smiled.“Mariano…” I called out softly.“Are you okay. You face has been quite red since last night. Did you catch a cold or something?” All I did was stare at me for it was the only thing I could do. First was the surprise last night, the kiss and now breakfast in bed, something I have always wanted. He placed his hand on my forehead. “That’s odd, you seem just fine but anyways, let me call the nurse to check up on you.”He dropped the tray at the edge of the bed and took out his phone. Just as he dialed a number, Celia walked in on us. “You made it just in time. I need you to watch her, I am going to call the nurse to check on her. Her face has been red all nigh
30 days in captivity Mariano's invitation
I woke up after a long nap, still in bed I looked at the windows. The rays of the sunlight had completely diminished, dusk was closing in.I turned my head to the other of the room. “Oh my God!” I exclaimed out loud. “You startled me.”“Sorry, didn’t mean to.” He replied. “How are you feeling, I called the nurse and she told me that you were fine. She ran a couple of test and they all came out okay. Besides, your face isn’t red anymore.”“Yeah, I suppose everything is okay now.”“Well since you are okay, I should probably let you rest and gain a lot of energy against tomorrow.”“Why? Is anything going on?” I asked with so much interest.“It’s nothing much, I just wanted you to come with me to somewhere I like to be and there is a grant event occurring there tomorrow night and I was invited to be there, so I wanted us to go together.”“Where is the place you are talking about?” I asked still curious.“Ohhh, it’s in Paris. You must have heard of the biggest opera in Paris, the Opera bas
30 days in captivity A night together 1:- The opera
Chapter thirty-twoThe operaI sat down in front of the mirror, I was dressed in a white double V-neck cocktail gown. I stared right into the mirror as I looked at my own reflection which stared right back at me.“What have I done?” I let out a disappointed sigh. The thought of going back to him crossed my mind but I had already said yes to him and cancelling may not be the right thing to do. “What am I going to do?” I asked myself in the quiet room.After much staring at my reflection, I began to apply a bit of light make-up and soon I was done. I walked out of the room to meet with him, he was already set and was dressed in his white tuexdo suit, the same suit I first saw him with.Gently I approached him, he was ready and we but entered the suv and drove off to his personal private hanger.His private plane was parked with it's door already opened like it was expecting us. Alighted from the suv, we made it to the plane and boarded it.The inside was amazing, I was left speechless a

I clenched on to his hand firmly, I just couldn’t withdrew my hand from his but wanted to keep holding on to it.Reaching it’s peak, the opera finally came to a close. He withdrew his hand as he joined the crowd to applaud the awesome display, I felt the warmness of his grip fading as both of our hands separate. It felt like something was taken away from inside me.“Cassandra.” Hearing his voice, I was drawn back to reality as I had been spacing out all through. “Are you okay? You have waters in your eyes.”“What!” softly I exclaimed and wiped off the waters.“It must have been the show. My sister always have the same reaction as you whenever we visit the opera, she would say it touches her soul.” He made a smile which last few seconds and his face was covered in pity.Celia did tell me about his sister and what happened. I guess he must have really loved and cared about her so much.“Well, that is the first. The second is about to start but there’s somewhere I want us to be.”“And wh

“What would you have done, if I had reconsidered at the last minute?” I stared at him with so must eager and curiousness as to what he would say if I had cancelled and changed my mindHe dropped down the menu, wrapped his hands together and gave a smile in amusement. At that moment, I felt like an idiot who had just asked a silly question .I told you, it was only a stupid question. You don’t have to answer if you don’t feel the need to.” I let out a sigh . “I have no idea why I had to ask such a question in the first place.” I picked up the menu as I glanced at it to see the different recipes and delicacy on it once more before I choose.“I would have cancelled.” The words came out of his mouth. I looked up at him like I heard not what he said and wanted him to repeat the same words just to be certain that I wasn’t being delusional. “If you had changed your mind about coming, I would have cancelled.”I could hardly believe the words I had just heard him say from his lips. He must be

He froze and kept staring at me. Iknew my request came out unexpectedly but I wasn't hoping that he would react this way. Usually, he would have accepted as i was the one giving the invitation but he didn't and just kept holding his glass of while and said not a word to me but rather stare at me.“I’m sorry, it was such a foolish request, I shouldn't have said anything.” I spoke out as I felt a bit embarrassed. I took the wine glass and without hesitation, I drank it all and emptied the glass.His eyes kept on lurking at me, I tried my very best not to exchange contact with him to avoid more embarrassment and feeling of shame.As soon as I was done, I dropped down the glass and in haste I stood up hoping to leave quietly.“Are you going to leave after making such a hard request?” His words drew me back and made me stand still on the spot. I turned around slowly to look at him, he held his wine and had a smile on his face. An enormous awkward amount of silence followed swiftly. He dro
30 days in captivity The true about Mariano's sister; Becky
The mention of my father’s name sent a cold chill through my spine. My lips were sealed shut as a result of the shock and surprise on hearing his name. What has this got to do with him? Why is he involved in this?“You seem pretty shocked, I know. You never expected him to be part of it, did you?” His eyes were focused on me. There was nothing I could do or say but to stare back at him. “Are you sure you want to know everything that happened?”At that moment, I could hardly tell if I was ready or not. Mariano’s life and Becky's death were linked with my father. It would be best to let it go but my curiosity was growing bigger and no matter how much i think of it, my father is involved therefore i have to know what happened.I took in a deep breath and let it all out, and then I took another deep breath to calm myself a little. “Yes, I want to know what happened.” I responded as I tried to summon the courage to prepare myself for whatever I was going to hear.“Alright then. It may be a
