VIOLETS POV Reporters start asking all kinds of questions, the Paparazzi attack me with their cameras. I try to be as brave as possible, I wear a smirk hoping my instincts were right, that Jesse and Benita are in total shock. Before I knew it I feel someone grab me and pull me into their embrace, at first I thought it was Luther, but as my head hits his chest following his scent, I instantly knew who it was, Jesse. "Honey!". He cries out " How is this possible?, I mean-I mean how did you manage to survive?, why didn't you call me?, I can't process anything that's happening". He starts to cry crocodile tears. I clench my fist, I felt my blood boiling, and I push him away from me "Get away from me you bastard!" I exclaimed, "You have no right to touch me!". He sobs " What do you mean?, I-violet, you have no idea how this situation is to me, I mean the world thinks you're dead, you've been gone for two years". He takes my hand putting it on his chest "Do you know how hard it was for
LUTHER'S POV "You did well today". I said with a low voice helping her take off her shoes, she's sited on her bed so she can get ready for bed, knowing how she is she would want to do everything by herself, but I can't possibly leave her, not after everything she went through, I swear I'm going to kill that two-faced bastard myself, he never deserved Violet from the start. " What's on your mind?". She asks bringing me out of my thoughts I get up "Nothing". She sighs, I take her shoes to the closet " You need a maid huh". "I can manage on my own". I shake my head turning to her "No, you need someone around you other than me, someone, to assist you, this house is way too big, what if I'm not around or I have an emergency? the thought of leaving you all alone-". She Jumps in" I'm fine you don't have to worry". "I can't help to, this house is full of your best memories and your worst ones ". She remains quiet "I'll interview some girls for the position tomorrow" I was about to leave
I throw bread crumbs to the Pidgeon, hearing the flapping of their wings put a smile on my face, this is the one thing that makes me happy. But then again, this is the place, Jesse and I had our first conversations, this is the place he told me he wanted to get to know me. Tear gather, no, I shouldn't be like this. "Hey, they seem to be a lot today". I hear Luther say with an exciting tone.Hearing his voice suddenly brought some sort of comfort "Are you okay?". " Of course I am, I'm just happy to be here". I force a smile "Well, that's great, I'm happy if you're happy". As soon as we were done, we go back to the house " What a day today ". Luther said assisting me on the couch " Yea, apart from Benita I think it was quite okay". I hear him sigh "You know, what Benita said wasn't wrong, it's gonna be hard taking your father's businesses away from him, he has everyone on his side". " I know, we need to get married as soon as possible". I hear him gasp "What? what is it?".
VIOLETS POV "Luther? is that you?". " Yes, it's me". He said with an awkward tone in his voice "I brought you breakfast, don't worry, I promise I didn't see anything ".I scoff. I hear him put down a tray on my bed ." By the way, this is Amanda, she's going to be your new maid". "Good morning miss". I stretch my hand towards the direction I hear her voice " Good morning, how do you do?". She shakes my hand nervously "I'm okay, a bit nervous". " I can tell". We both giggle "there's nothing to be nervous about, I hope we get along". " Me too" I hear Luther clap his hand "Alright then, I myself hope we all get along, I will leave you too now". Luther leaves the room leaving just me and Amanda. "You are about to have your bath yah?". She asked " Yes, I am". "Do you need any assistance?". I shake my head "No I don't, but you can pick out an outfit for me ". " Okay, then I will". I take off my bathrobe and go to the shower. So far Amanda doesn't seem all that bad, she has a ple
LUTHER'S POV The video was everywhere, video of our engagement was going crazy on the internet. I smile looking at my phone, this is exactly the kind of attention we needed. "Hey, Luther". I hear Gary call, I was waiting for him in a dark alleyway "So, did you get them?". He nods "Yup, they are still rookies but they do have a clean background". " Good then, it's about time we had guards around her, now that the public is aware of her situation ". "True, but why do you draw attention from them then? if it's risky why make everything public?". " let's say the best way to catch a mouse is simply putting a piece of cheese in an open room, what he doesn't know is the cat is just around the corner". "Wow, you are terrible at this".I smack the back of his head " ouch!" he whines "You deserved it, I would like them to resume as soon as possible, thank you for your help". He grinds "What are friends for? I do owe you big time" "Yea you do, don't worry I will save you a special seat
LUTHER'S POV I play my music using BT speaker and I turn up the music all the way I enter my shower having my mini-concert. As soon as I was done, I turn off the music. "Shit, I forgot to bring a towel with me" I sigh "good thing I stay alone". I come out of the bathroom, I clean my foot on my rug, as soon as I enter the room I hear my door shut, I see Violet trying to pull her robe out of the door, I was about taking a step back when she suddenly loses her balance Without thinking I rush towards her and we both end on the floor, luckily she was on top of me. I feel the warmth of her bosom on my bare chest, I feel my heart beating fast. I suddenly feel her hand on my crotch, damn what is she doing?, she tightens her grip, I take in a deep breath trying to control myself, she suddenly let's go when she figures out what she was holding " I'm sorry".We separate from each other, she holds her robe together with her hands. I stutter "What-what are yo-ou doing here?". "I-i just". She
Amanda helps me with my dress, I had a red sleeveless fitted dress on,she does my makeup and helps me put on my jewellery. The jewellery I had on were diamonds, they were my mums. my father gave them to me as my wedding gift, it was the jewellery he gave her when he proposed to her, when he made his first million. I never wore them, I always just touched them to admire them, I never took them to the house with me, I left them with my father, and I'm glad I did, these are way too precious. "All done". Amanda said excitedly "How do I look?". I turn to the guards Kat replies "You look lovely". Alvin follows "Beautiful ma'am". Then Leo responds "Stunning". I let out a sigh "Good then, thank you". I wonder what it feels like to look at one's reflection, be satisfied by the way you look, and not just count on the words of people. The doors burst open " Are you ready?". It was Luther, I nod "Let's go then". He takes my hand, I wear a genuine smile. "Be sure your eyes are all on Viole
"Don't you dare touch her"I said glaring at Benita, giving her my death stare She gulps "I was just-just stretching". She awkwardly starts stretching Jesse clears his throat to get our attention "I apologize on my wife's behalf, congratulations on your engagement". I noticed Violet looked lost in thoughts "Thank you". I shake his hand, even though it wasn't stretched out "Please, enjoy the rest of the evening". I take Violet away from their presence, Leo rushes towards us "Take Violet to her room, I think she has had enough for tonight, I'll take care of the rest". He bows "Okay sir". "Will you be okay?, I can stay a little bit longer, you can't possibly handle all the guests by yourself". She said concerned I place my hand on her shoulder, I smile at her "It's alright, you get some rest okay?". "Okay then, don't stress yourself, goodnight". I watch herself and Leo leave. I instantly frown, those bastards, how could they possibly put her in a spot like that. Someone taps me o
