She felt her cheeks heat up and she played with her fingers nervously. She felt so uncomfortable because of the maids standing around the table, although they weren't staring at them but that didn't make it any better. “What do you want?” He asked using his thumb to crease her waist and Xalia looked up at the table. There were different types of meals there and she wanted all but Draven being this way was really making her uncomfortable.“Anything is fine.” He replied and he waved his hand to a maid, She walked to him and bowed.“Pour her a glass of milk.” He ordered and she did, the maid slowly handed the glass to Xalia and she took it, she gulped the milk slowly and Draven watched her as she did, he picked up a toast and took a bite out of it, as she dropped the glass, Draven fed her with the toast and she took a bite out of it.“Stay calm.” Draven whispered in her ear as he saw her battling with her fingers.Till the end of breakfast, Draven fed her and made sure she was filled be
“Is that a joke?” She asked and Draven shook his head. “Some ended up being dead, some are in jail while some are in rehab and a few are okay.” He replied and Xalia gulped, she felt scared and wondered what would happen to her but at the same time, she felt so curious about what the instruments on the walls are used for. There are really a lot of things she hasn't seen before and they seem to amaze her. She slowly walked towards the wall and Draven watched her as he tucked his hands in his pants pocket, she picked up the leather cuffs and turned to Draven. “These are leather cuffs right?” She asked and Draven nodded. “Do they hurt?” She questioned further and Draven slowly walked towards her, he held the cuffs and looked at her. “Are you that curious?” He asked and Xalia could hear her heart race. “Yeah.” She whispered and he took the leather cuffs completely from her. “Stretch out your right hand.” He ordered and she slowly did, Draven cuffed her right hand and pulled her to a
She slowly turned to Draven who was looking upset.“I’m sorry.” She apologised.“You have the guts to defy me now?” “No, I was just so mad, that is my dad’s assistant and I didn't expect to see him here.” She replied without looking directly at him.“You didn't have to become a nuisance, I was having a meeting.” “I was shocked, okay? Anyone in my shoes would do the same thing.”“No, anyone in your shoes would be smart enough to walk away.” He said and Xalia rolled her eyes.“Well, maybe I am not smart, okay? I have been quiet all these while trying to take it all in and it is fucking making me go crazy! I got abandoned by my fiance on my wedding day and in a flash, I found out some dude was waiting for me at the altar and my fiancee was getting married to my step-sister who was already carrying his child! Then this minute my mother was on my side, the next she was not, I got married to a stranger and I found out my father sold me to him, no surprise there but it is all messed up!”
AT NIGHT MINUTES TO THE DINNER Xalia placed her right hand on her chest as she stared at the mirror, the maids helped her with her gown and all she did was stare at the mirror and thought about how the dinner would go. “All done ma’am.” She heard a maid say and she snapped out of her thoughts, she nodded at them and they bowed before walking out.She looked down at the gown and smiled slightly, no doubt the gown was beautiful, she loved how there were little diamond stones on it and how fitted it looked on her. The door to her room opened and she turned to see Draven walking in dressed in a tuxedo, he trailed his eyes on her body and Xalia felt heat rush up to her cheeks, she tried so hard not to blush but it wasn't so easy. ‘Draven is checking me out!’ She screamed in her head.He walked towards her and she kept staring at him.“Hey.” She whispered as he got close, he nodded at her and slowly wrapped his arms around her waist, Xalia felt her heart race and felt butterflies in he
“That is a fucking lie!” She screamed!“Is he right?” Kyle asked and Malia glared at Draven before turning to Kyle.“No baby, that is a lie. You trust me right?” She asked giving him a look and Kyle nodded, Xalia rolled her eyes and scoffed at how gullible Kyle was to her.“Just so you know, your wife was once a whore.” Malia said to Draven and Xalia froze. Why does Malia have to bring that up now? She is not wrong though but she has tried to bury the memories of it.“Don't talk to her like that.” Allison snapped at Malia and she rolled her eyes.“Well, at least she is married to someone better than the fool you call a husband.” Draven responded.“You don't get to talk to my daughter like that.” Malia’s mother said and Draven turned to Mr. McCall.“Why can't I? McCall, talk to your family or this won't end well.” Draven warned and he sighed.He gave his wife a look and she fumed, Malia became quiet and they all continued having dinner, Henry didn't say anything about the argument, al
“I don't think so.” He replied, staring into her eyes and she sighed.“Okay.” She muttered.“Are you hungry? You didn't finish your meal.”“I am okay.” She replied and buried her face in his chest again.“Good night Draven.” “Night Xalia.” He replied and stroked her hair.******** THE NEXT DAYMORNINGXalia slowly opened her eyes as she heard voices from her sleep, she slowly opened her eyes to see the maids talking as they cleaned her room.They noticed she was awake and kept quiet immediately, she slowly sat up and rubbed her eyes.“Good morning ma’am.” They chorused.“You all should leave.” She ordered and they all bowed before walking away, she exhaled and fell back on her bed.She closed her eyes and smiled as she recalled that she fell asleep in Draven’s arms, although last night was a bit rough for her it went well at the end, she got to talk to Draven without being so intimidated.She wondered why he left before she woke up, she giggled and breathed out happily.“Why are you
“Head to the red room.” He ordered and she gulped.“Okay.” She replied, trying to sound okay. She walked ahead of Draven and he walked behind her, they got to the entrance of the room and walked in, they both entered the closet and Draven walked to the box, he pressed the code and the door opened. Xalia felt her heartbeat accelerate as she stared at the door.“Go in.” Draven ordered and she did, the chilly weather in the room welcomed her and she wrapped her arms around her body.“Strip and get on your knees.” He ordered and took off his jacket, with trembling hands, she slowly did and went on her knees. Draven noticed how scared she was and he bent in front of her.“Xalia.” “Yeah?”“Here, you address me as your master.”“Yes, master.” She replied with a trembling voice and he stood up, folded his arms and watched her.Xalia wondered why he was staring at her, no doubt she was scared but he had really been nice to her and she wanted to return the favour. Draven started to unbutto
He pulled away from the hug and ran his hands through his hair, Xalia stared at him and he breathed out.“I have to go to work.” He muttered and was about to walk out of the door but Xalia stood in his way.“You want to go to work in this state?” “Is something wrong?” He asked back.“If you were going to work, why didn't you leave earlier?” “You didn't come down for breakfast.” He replied.“I… I was scared.” She muttered and he exhaled.“I have to go now, I will be home early.” He said and walked out without waiting for her to give a response. “Ugh.” She groaned and fell on her bed. The thought of her being home alone bothers her, she really wished Draven left early but that was when he didn't talk to her, but now, she really wishes he could stay.**********HOURS LATER With a glass of wine in her hand, Xalia sat at the lounge and stared at the garden in the house, it looked so pretty and healthy. She didn't know there was a garden in Draven’s mansion because she hadn't toured the
