Chapter 40 Kneel and Blead Me

A loud knock on the door intensified with every second. One of the employees hurriedly opened the door, finding herself facing an incredibly handsome and seductive man.

"Yes, young man?" How can I help you?

“I'm looking for Máximo Collins...

“Young Collins... "I think he's on his honeymoon," replied the maid, and the man frowned, clearly annoyed as he fell into a brief silence.

"Then I called Emily Collins..."

"On whose side? " The employee asked curiously.

"Tell her that Aiden Sinclair needs to talk to her." It's urgent and I won't leave until I come. Aiden declared firmly.

The young maid, still stunned by the man's imposing handsomeness, nodded, and went immediately to Emily's room.

" Miss? " He knocked on the door cautiously.

"What's wrong?!" Who bothers me?! Emily replied, opening the door abruptly.

"Excuse me, miss..." The maid bowed her head in reverence. Although she had only been working at the mansion for a brief time, she already knew about Emily's bad temper. "A man is at the door..." he began to explain, while Emily impatiently tapped her foot on the floor and drank a milkshake. "He was looking for young Maxim Collins, but when he did not find him, he asked to see you. He says that it is urgent and that he will not leave until he receives it.

"Aha," Emily replied, rolling her eyes wearily. "And who is that man, silly girl?" he asked, before taking another sip of his drink.

"The young man's name is Aiden Sinclair.

Emily spat out the milkshake in her mouth, splashing the young woman in the service, who barely closed her eyes.

"A... Aiden? Emily looked at her again, without the slightest intention of apologizing. For her, it was the girl's fault that she had filled up on the milkshake for being in her way. "Tell him I'm not here." “He slammed the door shut.

The young woman snorted helplessly, turned around, and as she walked, took a handkerchief from her apron pocket to clean herself.

"Wait!" He suddenly heard a scream. When he turned around, he saw Emily leaning out of the doorway. "I'll go and meet him, I'd better send him out before Dad comes..." Emily passed by the employee with an arrogant air, but stopped a few steps away, looking her up and down. - What are you doing standing there? Go clean yourself, you're disgusting.

He turned and went downstairs.

As she went down, step by step, Emily felt her pulse begin to accelerate and, in the distance, she glimpsed it.

Aiden was standing in front of the huge front door, which was still open, wearing very casual clothes, jeans, tight white flannel, and a dark sports jacket.

Emily swallowed thickly, she had to admit that the guy looked good, although that didn't take away from the little class he had, he was a womanizer and partygoer, after all, nothing to do with what a real gentleman represented.

"What are you doing here, you scoundrel?" Emily crossed her arms, trying to look determined, although inside the tingling was getting stronger and stronger.

"I assure you I didn't come for a social visit..." growled Aiden, with a seriousness that surprised Emily, since with that attitude he looked more masculine and attractive. - I need to locate your brother, it's urgent. I must talk to Isabella.

“With the homeless woman? Emily raised an eyebrow, holding back a smile. - It seems that my brother was right, you have something strange with that filthy woman, don't you? Are you in love with your cousin? “He asked sarcastically.

Aiden stared at her for a moment, his fists clenched at his sides. That woman drove him crazy, she deserved a lesson, and he would teach her, but not now. He had more important matters to attend to.

"What I do with my cousin is none of your business. I just need the information, where are they? How do I contact them? He growled, annoyed.

"And why would I tell you that?" Don't be ridiculous, I don't have to tell you anything..." Emily turned to leave, but Aiden grabbed her by the wrist.

“ You don't have to tell me, but I need the information, it's urgent... Please..." Aiden muttered with a clenched jaw, feeling like he was burning at having to ask the spoiled princess for a favor.

Emily sneered, approaching Aiden with a sudden interest, while a malicious smile was drawn on her face. "So, you need a favor very urgently, don't you?" she asked, feeling like a winner. This was his moment, the perfect opportunity to return the humiliations he had put her through. Aiden nodded with a frown. - So... kneel down and beg me. Emily whispered almost in his face, before taking a step back, excited to see his reaction.

"What?" Aiden narrowed his eyes, staring at her.

"You heard it..." Emily shrugged. "Kneel..." He pointed to the ground. "And beg me."

"Listen to me, little princess..." Aiden took a step towards her, furious, but Emily interrupted him.

"No, listen to me... Are you coming to my house to bother me and ask me a favor after all you did to me?" he replied, blushing at the memory of what had happened between them. "I won't tell you anything, I don't have to, unless you do what I tell you..." Kneel down and beg me. He repeated with determination and arrogance. Aiden clenched his jaw, holding back his anger.

Emily raised her face, defiant, waiting for Aiden to give in to her demand, when she noticed a car park in the driveway. It was Maximilian, his father. He opened his eyes wide and stepped back, trying to put distance between them.

Aiden realized what was happening and, before Maximilian's car finished braking, he closed the huge front door behind him.

"What...?" What are you up to? Emily stammered, surprised.

Aiden took her by the arm and pushed her toward a nearby door, which he remembered from Isabella's engagement party. It was a closet for coats. There they locked themselves in, in that small dark room, glued to each other, among piles of fabrics.

"You don't want your father to see you with me, do you?" Aiden whispered as he slid one of his hands towards Emily's waist.

"From..." Let me out..." she muttered, still confused, feeling again an inclement nervousness.

“Why? Because I'm a womanizer? Because I'm not enough? he asked in a soft murmur. Emily looked up at him in the dim darkness; There was something in his eyes that frightened her. "Or it's because you're afraid of him..." Aiden concluded, sticking closer to her, hugging her tighter around the waist.

"No... "It's just that I..." she whispered when the front door rang and immediately tensed.

"We'll do this like this..." Aiden began in a thread of voice, taking advantage of the opportunity. "Will you tell me where your brother and Isabella are and how I can find them..." or I'll open that door right now, in front of your father, and I'll go out with you in my arms..." Emily looked down, pursing her lips. "I can also include a kiss..." Aiden finished with a defiant tone.

"Well," Emily replied in a whisper. "They came back from their honeymoon yesterday.

"But where are they?" Aiden insisted, without letting go.

"Oh, you idiot, they were on one of the islands of the Collins family, in a tropical area. It's a long time of travel, so they should have arrived last night.

"Are you in this house?"

"Do you really think my brother would bring that homeless woman to live in our mansion?" Please..." Emily rolled her eyes with a mocking sneer. Aiden pressed it once more against his body, as a reminder of the situation and what he could do. “Máximo took your cousin to his apartment, it's the penthouse in the Deluxe building, in the center.

Aiden had finally gotten what he wanted and although he was dying to come out of that small closet to do just what he promised, which was to expose Emily, he was self-conscious.

Something deep down in Aiden made him feel bad for her, perhaps Emily's expression of fear or feeling her heartbeat so closely, but, although he hated Emily, he couldn't expose her.

However, she could take advantage of the fact that they were locked up, while the voice of her father, Maximiliano, could be heard very closely, shouting at all the staff.

"Thanks for the help, little princess. He muttered and Emily raised her face, surprised by his sudden kindness. - I see that you like to do things the hard way... Well, this will be a lot of fun.

A lopsided smile formed on his expression and a second later, Aiden kissed Emily with great care and passion.

He didn't like her, she despised him, she missed him, and she felt superior, because then, there was no other option, he had to teach her a lesson and for that, the little princess had to fall in love with the womanizing dog.

Aiden's tongue was digging it, his hands were running over it, in the dim darkness of the closet and in absolute silence, Emily tried to push him, although the kiss she was receiving, shook her.

When Maximilian's voice stopped echoing and the footsteps moved away upstairs, Aiden let go of it, letting the girl catch her breath.

"This is your reward for cooperating." Aiden smiled mischievously, slid one of his hands down her cheek and left in an instant, leaving like a spy.

Emily stayed for a moment in the same place, feeling her body warm, her heart jumping and a rush of adrenaline that ran through her, she had to take a minute to compose herself.

What the hell was happening to him? Why did she feel that way about that guy? He was nobody, just a womanizing idiot. Could it be that...? Could he like it?
