“I'm sure you have your hands full Clarette, let me make his coffee

I promise I'll do my best”

Sharon said, holding a white mug in her hands

“Really? You shouldn't worry you know”

“Please, I want to make myself useful”

Sharon said with pleading eyes

“Very well then, I'll be back in a few minutes to serve it”

Sharon watched Clarette leave the kitchen. This was her chance,she had waited so long for this moment

She made the coffee perfectly, remembered everything she learned

She put the right amount of sugar and cream, made it just like Clarette's. It looked good, it smelled good, and tasted like something Clarette had made

everything was set

Courtesy of her few days of apprenticeship

She wore loose pants with pockets, so she could hide the bottle. She made sure she recited her mantra that morning

But immediately she took it out and opened it, her hands shook

Sharon broke into a cold sweat, and she could hear her heart thump

She tried to do it, she was so close. But for some reason, she needed a reason. It was as if at that instant, she had forgotten all the terrible things Luca had done to her

She just couldn't

She heard footsteps, then she quickly covered the bottle and slipped it beck into her pocket

It was Clarette

She was there to serve Luca, and Sharon knew she had missed a golden opportunity. Why she hesitated, she didn't know. She hated him with all her heart, he treated her badly. But when she got the opportunity, she didn't do it

She didn't want to do it

As Sharon watched her take Luca’s breakfast away, she gritted her teeth

She was so close—

But next time, she wouldn't hesitate, she was almost there

******************

Luca’s hands were bruised. His drunken vandalism of the house made sure of that.

Everything he broke was replaced with a news even fancier one. And the servants had cleaned up his mess

But everyone knew he was going to break them again.

He took his mug to his lips. He could feel the strain on his bruised fingers, then he set it down.

There were two servants there to attend to him.

He smacked his face with his palm and let out a loud sigh

“Where's my wife? Tell her I need to see her”

About a minute later, Sharon walked lazily to his table, dragging her feet all the way.

A frown was glued to her face

“Yes, I'm here. What in the world made you to request my presence all of a sudden?”

Luca looked at the two servants and gestured at them to leave.

Then he fixed his eyes on her

His piercing deep blue eyes stared into her, and for a moment, just a brief moment, Sharon felt something she couldn't describe

“Feed me”

Luca said, his eyes still locked on hers

“You must me out of your mind, I'm not going to feed you”

Luca raised his bandaged hands so she could see them

Sharon turned her face away from him

“You could've asked one of the servants it”

“Where's the fun in that?”

A small smile appeared on his lips

He was tormenting her, just for fun

Sharon grabbed a chair and sat next to him.

Then she took his mug in her hand

Was she really doing this?

Sharon could not explain the reason for her actions. She clearly didn't want to, it was as if her body was moving on it's own accord

“Open your mouth” she said as as she took the mug to his lips.

Sharon watched his lips part, watched as the coffee she nearly poisoned went down his throat, studied his jawline while he drank, the curve of his lips, his nape, everything about his facial features.

He was dangerously handsome

Luca guided her hands to set the cup down. She was so lost in thought she forgot she was feeding a person.

“I'm—I’m sorry” she said as she got up.

There was a little coffee stain on his shirt

“I'll launder it for you—”

Luca stood up, his cold expressionless gaze pierced into her.

In the twinkle of an eye, his usual demeanor was back.

It was as if he remembered she was Sharon Gray, the woman he hated so much.

He walked out like nothing ever happened, like he wasn't the same guy a minute ago.

And Sharon had to remind herself of who he was.

He was cold and heartless, he was evil. She didn't understand him.

But there was something else. Something different, something that resembled a silver lining

The unspoken thing that made him not to touch her the night she was drunk, that made him look at her the way he did a moment ago

could she really bring herself to kill him?—

    I felt his eyes move from my face,to my neck, to my cleavage. The robe did what it could—I could feel the heat rising inside of me. He wanted me, I could see it in his eyes. But I had to resist him, I mean we had barely even spent a day.If I was going to make it through in one piece, I needed to get him off my mind. That was the problem precisely. He was Luca Pavilochenki—“Ciao Bella signora!”I looked around for the owner of the squeaky voice, but I couldn't find himThen I looked down. He was standing between us, looking at me like I was the most fascinating thing in the world He was missing a few teeth, probably six or seven years old. And then I remembered the chorus that morning. Could he be one of them?“Well hello”I said, wondering if he had been there the whole time. If he had watched me and Luca grow awkward. But wait, he didn't understand English.I heaved a sigh of relief as I patted him on the headHe smiled at me, his missing teeth making him all the more cuteThen h

    Welcome to Italy!The air hostess’ words filtered through space Sharon's mind was far away. Her and Luca hadn't seen each other for hours. No texts, not calls, nothing.He seemed to respect her privacy a little too much She was scared, scared of opening up a wound that didn't properly heal in the first place. She was scared of letting him know about her tragic past, scared letting him see what she had been hiding Nobody knew, not even Claire So she pushed him away—And gosh, she didn't even mean to But like he said, they were strangers.They landed in a private jet terminal in Florence, and walked into the VIP Like strangers, who met by chance on the plane—Immediately they filed the necessary paperwork, they were both met by two tour guides. Their luggage was taken to their respective places of residence It was evening, they were both tired, and things weren't quite settled between them The night was cold, and even the warmth of Italy couldn't shield herSharon looked at h

    Sharon's fork fell to the floorHer eyes went blank, and her face was frozen in expression “Sharon I—”“Leave”“What?”“I'm not comfortable— around you”At that moment, Luca realised he had stepped on uncharted territory. Sharon never spoke to him about her nightmares, never gave him an explanation for her post traumatic responsesHe always suspected something, but he never gave in to his curiosity. Never asked, never pried, never raised questions And now, he just ruined a genuine moment, hopefully the first of many to come—By stating that she had a traumatic childhood Luca slowly stood up, with his head bowed “Sharon”“Don't fucking call me that. You're a stranger to me, remember?”Sharon had never spoken to him like that before. Infact she hardly defied him. He usually had his way, somehow. But he was beginning to realise that he hadn't touched the tip of the iceberg And winning her trust, her heart—Was still an abstract thought. One moment he felt like he was making progres

    “Hey”“Riann”“Huh?”“Do you usually fall asleep on strangers?”Sharon became aware of her surroundings, and yes, she was sleeping on him Still, she had no idea how she got into that position, since she had been sitting opposite him “I'm sorry”She said, standing up quickly. Like he was the plague“I don't mind, really”She went back to her initial sitting position “No thanks”“Are you hungry Bella?”“No”Sharon folded her arms around her waist, but she couldn't stifle the sound of her stomach growling Luca gave her a comical smile “Will you eat with me?”Sharon sighed. She knew where it was going. He would offer to feed her during the course of their meal, and hold her in a romantic position. And slowly, she would desire his touch, his affection And eventually, they would do it again, and again, and Sharon would slowly fall in love—“No, I don't dine with strangers”Luca pressed a small bell and two waiters walked in with trays of food“It's okay, I'll leave the room for you t

    “We will now take off, I urge you to sit tight and make yourselves comfortable”The cheesy voice of the air hostess echoed through Sharon smiled slightly She sat on a plush white cushion, a table was set in front of her with various appetizersLuca was in another room, keeping his word to make things appear like they met on the tripIt was delusional, but cuteTheir first encounter was terrible, their second, even worseAnd now they were just supposed to forget everything, the doubt, the uncertainty, all of itIt was like—A fresh start A sort of do over.They never got to discover anything about each other before they were married, never courted, never had genuine moments Their marriage was like a death sentence, a cross they had to carry, a burden they were straddled with Maybe if they had met under normal circumstances, maybe if they weren't forced into a union, things would've been different For Sharon, it was going to be a journey of self discovery. She was twenty three yea

    “You look beautiful”Sharon turned to see Luca standing behind her. He was wearing a plain black shirt, with black pants and loafers. His lips were curled slightly into a smile His eyelashes fanned his deep blue eyes, and his hair was messed up perfectly, adding to his sheer beauty His presence sent shivers through her, and when their eyes met, for a moment, just a moment, they shared something beautiful.It was a fragile feeling, still in it's foetal state. And Sharon wasn't willing to accept it for what it was Not yet—“Thank you”Her eyes slowly darted back to the mirror, and she continued to adjust the band on her hairHe walked closer, so that could hear his breathing behind her, and feel the vibrations in his chest as he spoke “Leave it”“What?”He looked at her from the mirror.“I like your hair free”His hands moved to her head, and slowly, he loosened the bun she was trying so hard to achieve. He used his fingers to straighten them out, and paused for a moment to admire
