Chapter Twenty
Light gray eyes stare back at me as I look into the mirror. Wet dark like hair clings to my small face. I feel different.
I don't know why I keep staring at myself as I've being doing for the past… at least fifteen minutes?A drop of water runs from my scalp then rows down my temple then down the side of my face, cheek then my neck.
Yesterday after my very intense discussion with Dominiko, and hanging out with the girls in the kitchen tommy joined us sometime in the afternoon. And my day went from there. He took me on a tour round the mansion. My legs were hu

A feather like touch caressing over my upper arm wakes me up. I shield my face from the light by snuggling deeper into the warmth I know is my husband. I've come to accept what an octopus I become in my sleep. And he's just so warm. Then again, he's never complained and until he does, I refuse to blame myself for something I do in my sleep. Smooth fingers run through my hair as if to say

About fifteen minutes into the drive the car comes to a stop. Dominiko steps out first before helping me out of the car. Arm in arm we walk into a white brick building with a cross at the top. A number of people lingered at entrance, Men and women in pairs, some of them with little children. Most of the older women had on hats, o

It's at least ten minutes since we've being driving. Since then, the houses we've passed are huge Italian styled mansions. Makes me believe everyone close by is part of the family one way or the other. I suppose it will be easier to keep everyone save if there was an attack or something. Mama always said the family is stronger together. For the next minutes I play with my phone checking out the apps. In my contact I have only three names. Danilo, Dominiko and Miguel. Who is Miguel? I pondered. I get bored and stared out the window, counting the houses we pass by. "Can I go out today?" I ask, still looking out the window. Dominiko who has being operating his phone since he got into the car replied. "No" not even taking his eyes from his phone. "Why not!" I cried.

"Let's go Tommy, I don't want dessert" I whispered. I didn't even want to be anywhere near Dominiko right now. How could he say that?I'd die from embarrassment I swear. "How can you not want dessert?" Tommy asks his eyebrows arched into his curly hair. My traitorous eyes find Dominiko where Eliza is hanging off his arm like an octopus. The sight makes me feel like smashing expensive things against the wall, or maybe Eliza's face, that'll do too. God what am I thinking, I've never being a violent person. "Let's just go, alright?" I snapped. Out of the corner of my eyes I see a man enter the room, he goes straight for Dominiko whispering something to him. I look at the guy for a bit. He seemed familiar. I narrowed my eyes to see better. "

I feel fingertips over my arms, shoulders. My face, cheeks, eyes, my lips. I blinked awake slowly. Pitch blackness greets me. I register the feeling again, this time over my neck, my chin before coming back to my mouth. Is someone touching me? “Niko?" I call out, traces of sleep still cling to my voice. "Hmm?" someone hums directly in front on me. I feel hot air, breath on my neck. Soft hair tickles my cheek. I move my hands blindly in the dark. "Is that you?" I ask. "Always" he says, his lips trace the shell of my ear before nipping. I claps smooth skin moving my touch upward until I feel silky strands of hair, his shoulders. His lips trail open-mouthed kisses down my neck, shoulders. As he goes lower my silk night gown follows pooling on my hips. My breath hitches when he pulls off the bed covers. My mind immediately goes to his insult from earlier and I'm tempted to kick him off me. he kisses the valley between my breasts, his palm massages my

"Beatrice Blanco's phone" a soft voice says from the receiver. "Morning Mother!" "Lola? Is that you?" I hear her voice break through the speaker. "Mama? Are you crying? What's wrong? Did you and Papa fight again? Are-are you hurt?" I whispered the last part. "No baby. Not that. I was just so worried about you. Why didn't you call me sooner? Your father forbids be from reaching out" she sniffles. "Am sorry, I've being a little busy erm.. Settling in." "Are you sure? Are you alright?" I could hear the worry in her voice. "Yes mama. But Are you?" "Don't worry about me baby. Your husband,is he treating you well?" the last part was a whisper. How to answer that? I'm not certain I understand her question. "Yes, I suppose

*** "Oh my God" I gaped at the scene in front of me. "he killed him!" I gasped. "I know right" Tommy chuckles at me. I shifted my gaze to him, wondering at his audacity to laugh at a scene like this. “How can you be laughing?” I asked. The man on the TV just pushed a little boy off a tall building.Silence fills the room for about half an hour before the episode comes to an end. "Fast forward it. I want to know what happens next. I need to know what happens next!" exclaimed pointing at the TV where names and credits are coming up just as it has at the end of every episode. I reach into the bowl of popcorn my palm comes up empty. "We need more popcorn" empty bottles of sodas are laying on the floor. When did we go through the snacks? "And drinks too." "Fine,I'll pause it." Tommy rolls hi
