Mariano's invitation

I woke up after a long nap, still in bed I looked at the windows. The rays of the sunlight had completely diminished, dusk was closing in.I turned my head to the other of the room. “Oh my God!” I exclaimed out loud. “You startled me.”“Sorry, didn’t mean to.” He replied. “How are you feeling, I called the nurse and she told me that you were fine. She ran a couple of test and they all came out okay. Besides, your face isn’t red anymore.”“Yeah, I suppose everything is okay now.”“Well since you are okay, I should probably let you rest and gain a lot of energy against tomorrow.”“Why? Is anything going on?” I asked with so much interest.“It’s nothing much, I just wanted you to come with me to somewhere I like to be and there is a grant event occurring there tomorrow night and I was invited to be there, so I wanted us to go together.”“Where is the place you are talking about?” I asked still curious.“Ohhh, it’s in Paris. You must have heard of the biggest opera in Paris, the Opera bas

A night together 1:- The opera

Chapter thirty-twoThe operaI sat down in front of the mirror, I was dressed in a white double V-neck cocktail gown. I stared right into the mirror as I looked at my own reflection which stared right back at me.“What have I done?” I let out a disappointed sigh. The thought of going back to him crossed my mind but I had already said yes to him and cancelling may not be the right thing to do. “What am I going to do?” I asked myself in the quiet room.After much staring at my reflection, I began to apply a bit of light make-up and soon I was done. I walked out of the room to meet with him, he was already set and was dressed in his white tuexdo suit, the same suit I first saw him with.Gently I approached him, he was ready and we but entered the suv and drove off to his personal private hanger.His private plane was parked with it's door already opened like it was expecting us. Alighted from the suv, we made it to the plane and boarded it.The inside was amazing, I was left speechless a

A night together īī:- an ambitious feeling

I clenched on to his hand firmly, I just couldn’t withdrew my hand from his but wanted to keep holding on to it.Reaching it’s peak, the opera finally came to a close. He withdrew his hand as he joined the crowd to applaud the awesome display, I felt the warmness of his grip fading as both of our hands separate. It felt like something was taken away from inside me.“Cassandra.” Hearing his voice, I was drawn back to reality as I had been spacing out all through. “Are you okay? You have waters in your eyes.”“What!” softly I exclaimed and wiped off the waters.“It must have been the show. My sister always have the same reaction as you whenever we visit the opera, she would say it touches her soul.” He made a smile which last few seconds and his face was covered in pity.Celia did tell me about his sister and what happened. I guess he must have really loved and cared about her so much.“Well, that is the first. The second is about to start but there’s somewhere I want us to be.”“And wh

A night together īīī

“What would you have done, if I had reconsidered at the last minute?” I stared at him with so must eager and curiousness as to what he would say if I had cancelled and changed my mindHe dropped down the menu, wrapped his hands together and gave a smile in amusement. At that moment, I felt like an idiot who had just asked a silly question .I told you, it was only a stupid question. You don’t have to answer if you don’t feel the need to.” I let out a sigh . “I have no idea why I had to ask such a question in the first place.” I picked up the menu as I glanced at it to see the different recipes and delicacy on it once more before I choose.“I would have cancelled.” The words came out of his mouth. I looked up at him like I heard not what he said and wanted him to repeat the same words just to be certain that I wasn’t being delusional. “If you had changed your mind about coming, I would have cancelled.”I could hardly believe the words I had just heard him say from his lips. He must be

stay with me tonight

He froze and kept staring at me. Iknew my request came out unexpectedly but I wasn't hoping that he would react this way. Usually, he would have accepted as i was the one giving the invitation but he didn't and just kept holding his glass of while and said not a word to me but rather stare at me.“I’m sorry, it was such a foolish request, I shouldn't have said anything.” I spoke out as I felt a bit embarrassed. I took the wine glass and without hesitation, I drank it all and emptied the glass.His eyes kept on lurking at me, I tried my very best not to exchange contact with him to avoid more embarrassment and feeling of shame.As soon as I was done, I dropped down the glass and in haste I stood up hoping to leave quietly.“Are you going to leave after making such a hard request?” His words drew me back and made me stand still on the spot. I turned around slowly to look at him, he held his wine and had a smile on his face. An enormous awkward amount of silence followed swiftly. He dro

The true about Mariano's sister; Becky

The mention of my father’s name sent a cold chill through my spine. My lips were sealed shut as a result of the shock and surprise on hearing his name. What has this got to do with him? Why is he involved in this?“You seem pretty shocked, I know. You never expected him to be part of it, did you?” His eyes were focused on me. There was nothing I could do or say but to stare back at him. “Are you sure you want to know everything that happened?”At that moment, I could hardly tell if I was ready or not. Mariano’s life and Becky's death were linked with my father. It would be best to let it go but my curiosity was growing bigger and no matter how much i think of it, my father is involved therefore i have to know what happened.I took in a deep breath and let it all out, and then I took another deep breath to calm myself a little. “Yes, I want to know what happened.” I responded as I tried to summon the courage to prepare myself for whatever I was going to hear.“Alright then. It may be a

Mariano's confession 1

There was an awkward moment of silence that followed, i couldn’t tell if he was joking or he was being serious. My head was totally blank as there was not a word I could say to him anymore. Mariano has every right to be angry and treat me as nothing but a slave but he isn’t, rather he has been a bit gentle towards me. Could he really be honest by the fact that he doesn’t want to hurt me? Could he really be serious about having an interest in me?“Is there anything you would like to know?” he asked with a smile on his face. I froze up again, I couldn't speak, nor could I find the right words to use.“Nothing…..i think i am okay.” I managed to voice out. His eyes were focused on me but I was finding it hard to look at him. My heart was beating so fast that I couldn't bear to lift my face up.We sat down on the bed without exchanging words. After a moment, he cleared his throat, bringing an end to the dead silence in the room.“Well if there’s nothing else, I will take my leave and let y

Mariano's confession ii: My own feelings

“I want you to be mine.” His words cut me off guard. I was speechless and so much confused, all I could do was stare right at him. My heart was racing as much as twice as it usually would. His eyes were fixed on me, I could see the sincerity and honesty in them. Mariano has just confessed his feelings towards me.Face to face with each other, neither of us said a word but just stood staring into each other. Shortly, the smell of something burning caught on our nose.“Shit!” He exclaimed out loud as he turned back to the eggs. “ I burnt it.” He said with a bit of disappointment.Just as I stood there watching him lament, muttering to himself. I found myself smiling.“You are smiling.” Hearing his words, my smile began to fade slowly. “You don’t have to stop smiling just because I said it, besides it’s nice to see you smile. I like it when you smile.”I don’t know what is happening, but Mariano’s words, everytime he talks this way my heart just beats as fast as usual. Could this be my

Admitting and accepting my feelings

It was already dusk before we came back, our little shopping exceeded my expectations and rather it turned out to be a whole day shopping. The car was filled up and lucky for us, it was just the two of us in the vehicle. Mariano inserted the keys into the ignition, starting the engines and we drove back home.On arrival, Guzman was by the entrance of the hotel, standing as though he was awaiting our return. We parked just in front of him, the other guards came to our aid while Mariano walked over to Guzman. I knew it was business related as such I would rather let him handle his business by himself. I made it back to our hotel room and made it to the room. Immediately I walked into the bathroom as I reeked of sweat. I turned on the water and it filled the bathtub, without hesitation I dipped myself into the hot bath. It was refreshing and relieving at the same time.“Cassandra.” I heard my name being called, it was him. “Bathing.” I responded at the top of my voice. “Ohh, why don’

A long night 1; The beginning of romance

30 days in captivity"What do you really think of me?" His eyes made contact with mine, staring right at me without saying a word. "Do you consider me a woman?" "You seemed drunk. We will talk about it some other time.""No, I want to know." I spoke out as I tried to be persistent. Now is probably the best time for Mariano to give me an answer, cause no matter what he says, it won't hurt so much if I eventually get rejected by him. I fixed my gaze at him, hoping for him to speak up. "Since you want to know, I will give you the answer you've been waiting to hear" he spoke and stared right into my eyes. My heart was racing again. I was eager to hear what he would say. Will I be rejected? The thought came ringing in my head. "Cassandra." He paused just after calling my name, my heart made a loud throbbing sound inside me. . "I have always thought of you as a woman. Nothing less of such, and just like I have been saying, I have never been more interested in you than this moment. I wa
