I sped up, putting on the fitted sheet, tripping between the left and right sides of the bed. However, as I was about to put on the last part of the bedding, I tumbled into the bed.
'Sierra, what are you doing?' I muttered as Sierra took control of my body.
'I'm not doing anything.' She denied it, but I knew what she did.
"Aren't you done yet?" I heard Blaze ask in an irritated tone.
I acted as though I was fixing the linen.
"Almost done," I responded, without turning my head.
'Sierra, stop it. It's not funny!' I protested, as I still couldn't control the lower half of my body.
But Sierra didn't respond. She ignored me and continued controlling my lower body.
Sigh. What would I do? I peeked at Blaze and saw him walking towards the closet. I tried to get up but I couldn't.

Sir Fernando and Blaze were sitting in the wrought-iron chairs under the shadow of the maple tree in the garden. I couldn't understand, but my heart fluttered the moment I saw Blaze. I gazed at him as I walked towards them. Good thing he was not looking in my direction, as he was busy reading a newspaper. He looked serious, with his knitted brows and tightly pressed lips. 'He's beyond handsome, right Ayira?' Sierra mumbled in admiration. Well, I couldn't deny that he looked cool in his plain white shirt while strands of his hair were slightly waving in the soft wind.
I could do nothing but stamp my foot on the ground as I looked at the car speeding away from me. 'What would I do now?' I asked myself, gazing at the hundred-dollar bill in my hand. I knew I would get bored if I would only sit for two hours, especially now that I couldn't talk with Sierra. I sighed before I walked dejectedly towards the coffee shop. But before I could reach the entrance, a brilliant idea flickered in my mind. 'Why not?' I uttered with a mischievous grin on my lips as I realized that this was more fun than being with Blaze. I could do anything and I could go wherever I wanted.
Tears burned my eyes while my lips trembled. I felt so scared at that moment. 'Sierra? Sierra, I'm in trouble. I need your help.' I whispered. I had no choice. I had to wake her up. After calling her three times, she finally woke up. 'What trouble you got into again, Ayira?' She questioned, seeing the guards dragging me. 'Tell me, what should I do?' I queried after I explained what happened. 'You know w
'You heard it right. He said you would be his assistant in the meantime.' Sierra confirmed. I felt glad. It only means I could go to the Downtown Mall again. "Do you have any idea about the task of an assistant?" Blaze asked solemnly while he was busy driving. "Of course. I love reading books. That's why I have a little knowledge about the work of an assistant." I answered confidently. I wanted to say that I was a college graduate. That's why I had an idea. But I restrained myself as Ben told me it's better not to tell anything about my background.
I came out of the library, puzzled by why Blaze suddenly changed his mood. I could compare his behavior to the weather, so hard to predict. Sometimes warm, sometimes cold. 'Does he have mood swings?' I wondered. 'I think that's his natural behavior.' Sierra commented. 'Well, you're right.' I concurred with a smirk. I went to my room and continued exploring my phone. Then I thought about sending Noah a text message to ask how I could return his kindness. &n
It was almost five in the afternoon when I finished everything. Good thing, Ben helped me to clean the swimming pool since it was my first time. And as soon as we finished, I rushed to my room and quickly took a shower. I wore a navy blue casual dress that Blaze bought for me. I recalled when the staff told me that this dress was best for informal events, like dining out or meeting with acquaintances. I matched it with brown flats. Then I let my short blonde hair fall on my shoulders. I checked the tim
Balling my fists, I glared at Cherry because her nails almost dug into my skin. Then I gritted my teeth. At any moment, I would explode in rage. 'Ayira, calm down.' Sierra whispered as she could feel that I was losing my temper. 'Peshteah, Sierra. How can I calm down?' I retorted. 'You know the rule.' Hearing Sierra's words, I could do nothing but shut my eyes and take a deep breath to calm myself
Blaze's POV The sudden appearance of Ayira in the villa bothered me, especially when she became our housemaid. She's a thief who trespassed at the villa and stole my wine. I couldn't trust her! Moreover, I didn't like my feeling every time she would look at me. She's giving me strange emotions that I hadn't felt before, particularly when her sapphire blue eyes would meet mine. But she passed through my grandfather's meticulous behavior. I could do nothing. I couldn't understand how she's able to
