"So, tell me now, how did you learn all these skills?" Itzel asks him sitting across from him on the bed with folded legs."How did I learn what?" Dmitri retorts at her with an amused but innocent face. Squinting her eyes narrow at him, Itzel moves a bit closer to him and lets her index finger to trail down his neckline sensually slow."You don't want to cross me, Mr. Taylor. Trust me." She whispers right into his ear causing him to involuntarily shiver at that. But thankfully, he does not get caught. Damn, this girl! Does she know what effect she has on Dmitri? Of course, she knows! And that is why she is exploiting it to her own benefit now. "Okay, okay. Now, stop teasing me, Ms. Itzel! I might not be able to control myself if you keep up with this." Dmitri tells her as he painfully shifts in his position. "So, you want to know how I know how to treat animals?" She nods in agreement."Yes, how do you, like a professional?" "I went to veterinary medicine school for two years." He t
"Stop...stop it!!" Itzel's laughter fills the room as Dmitri does nothing but tickle her causing her to laugh uncontrollably until her eyes get watery. "I..I admit! I admit. O..okay?" Itzel says and that is when Dmitri finally spares her. Her laughing carries on for a moment more or so before she sobers up clutching her now aching stomach and wiping a few of the stray tears off of her face. "Oh, so now you finally admit, eh?" Dmitri asks her with a smug look. Itzel just rolls her eyes at him playfully before nodding."Yeah, yeah. I admit that you look way more young and charming for your age." She says and that makes Dmitri smile brightly as he proudly nods to himself. "That I am! Thank you for the compliment by the way, my love." He tells her bowing like a true gentleman."Too much of a narcissist now, are we?" Itzel says with an infuriated look. Not because of the fact that Mr. Taylor is handsome but because he knows that he is! And it has slightly racked her brain as she keeps th
The loud bangs coming at the door to her room causes Itzel to jump up from the bed. The arm of Dmitri that is being snaked around her torso thankfully saves her from falling off of the bed. Sensing her move beside him, Dmitri too wakes up from his sleep and looks at her frowning self. The knocks are now getting more incessant."Someone is at the door! You need to hide somewhere fast!" Itzel screeches at him, her throat feeling a bit scratchy from just waking up. Dmitri gets no time to react or say anything as Itzel literally drags him towards her bathroom by tugging at his hand and motions him to get in quick. Then she quickly composes herself and goes to open the door. "Ma? What is happening? Is everything all right?" She asks as soon as her gaze falls on her frantic looking mother who is looking back at her with wide, panicking eyes and a phone clutched at her one hand. "Is someone on the phone, ma?" She nods at her vehemently."Yes, it is the police department! They are saying that
When they reach there, Itzel is first to get out of the suv, followed by her mother after. Turning around, she gives her brother a last warning look. "Ishu, don't get out of the car, we will be back in a few minutes." Okay, a few more minutes if the body really is their father's. Ishu just boredly leans his back against the car seat."I know, di! I will not get out of here." But he knows why his sister is finding it hard to believe in him. Apparently, Ishu is not exactly known for his great compliance. Telling the driver to look over him, she and her mother go away. "Don't you have any better work to do?" Ishu questions the driver who just ignores him at first knowing what he is playing at. "Listen, I am hungry. Bring me some food. Now." He orders the driver who is amused by the little boy's fierce command. "Master, if you don't know already, but I am the driver of your family and not the butler." He calmly replies to Ishu who grinds his teeth out of annoyance glaring daggers at the
Sitting at the dining table, Itzel watches Ishu just playing with his spaghetti and not eating it. With a distant look on his face, he just stares at the dish aimlessly. Itzel can understand that he is going through a hard phase, a very hard phase of his life, seeing as he has lost his father just two days ago, and not to forget, he has actually seen his ghastly looking dead body with his own eyes. But as his big sister, Itzel has to try and help him get over this hard time of his life. "Ishu, do you want me to make you some pancakes? Banana pancakes, your favorite! What do you say?" Itzel asks him trying to sound enthusiastic but it does nothing to help Ishu whatsoever. He just shakes his head from side to side without even looking up at her. And now she does not know how to cheer him up. He has been missing his football practice for two days in row but that is okay with her. She is not going to force him to go out and play when he barely even talks now. Sighing, she sits back on he
Dmitri watches as Itzel walks over to the other side of the counter with the glass tumbler full of water in her hands. Drinking the content in almost one go before placing it in the dishwasher and moving out of the kitchen with hasty steps. Maybe she does not want him to make anything out of her actions but Dmitri sees through it. Ever since the 'falling' word has slipped his lips, she has been trying to avoid talking to or even seeing him as much as possible. And now he curses himself for ever saying that infront of her. Though Itzel is trying to come off as normal infront of him, like everytime she sees him, she passes him a smile which is rather a tight lipped one. Even now when Dmitri came into the kitchen to help with the lunch for today, Itzel was having some water but went out of here as soon as she saw him. With a defeated sigh, Dmitri makes it to the kitchen island and begin discussing the menu for today's lunch with the cook. While doing all this though, he is even fretting
Walking near to where they are sitting, Dmitri stops right infront of Anita. "What did you tell her exactly to make her agree to go God knows where to with you?" Dmitri questions her. Purely out of curiosity because he knows that he does not stand a chance against this woman. She smiles but does not tell him anything. "Relax, young man! She does not mean any harm to your girl, you know it better than anyone." The man from beside her says standing up to his height. Dmitri goes to say that he trusts her but is cut off by him. "Don't worry. We have not told her anything yet. Figured you are yet to tell her about your truth and that if we tell us, it might ruin everything for the both of you. Now come, let's go out for a short walk until your girl comes back down. Yeah?" Dmitri, at first, hesitates but then agrees to him and they both walk out of the mansion. "I don't know if you remember me but I am Marcony, the man who was with Anita when you came to the hotel room that day, remember?"
The ticking of the clock in the hallway puts Dmitri in another level of anxiety with each passing second as he waits for Itzel to come back to the mansion. It is now fucking half past six in the evening and she is not back here yet! And this has definitely caused Dmitri to be just a minute away from going on a rampage now. He keeps on pacing in the big hallway with his eyes trained solely on the main doors, waiting to be thawed by the presence of Itzel. Ishu has returned from his three hours long football practice, even Mrs. Singh has come back home after meeting some of her friends back from high school, as she told him that she went to invite them for a small together to be held for Mr. Singh's demise ritual. But then there is Itzel who is yet to come back from wherever it is she went to. She had told him that she would be back in half an hour at max but where is she? Not even a phone call has come from her side to tell him where the hell is she! Or if she is all right or not! Dmit
