My eyelids slowly open as I heard the curtains open

My eyes took a quick second to focus on a petite woman

Rhius wearing a white uniform,her almond eyes and hair glinted in the sunlight.The refreshing sound of the waves are audible as the whistle of the wind

"good morning master"she smiled

"goodmorning"I rubbed my eyes and sat up"what time is it?"I asked

I wore my black pajamas...

Wait...

Who?

"Don't worry Mama Saphia is the one who changed your clothes"she said as if she read my mind

A huge load dropped from my chest

I only remember vague bits of what I did last night

"it is currently 11:23 master"Rhius informed

"Please don't call me master"Its so uncomfortable having someone call you master

She shook her head

"I insist,please let me "she asked

I was silent merely staring at the girl

I ignored my questions then stood up

I felt my head throb

"you must be hungry,I made something for you "she said then led me down stairs

The house looked beautiful,windows were open welcoming the sunlight,thin curtains danced to the will of the wind

She sat me on the island then proudly presented a plate filled with pasta beautifully twisted on top was a red sauce and a green garnish

"what is this for?"I smiled then took a bite

"well I wanted to apologize about the puppy so I worked hard to make you this,you are an amazing cook and you must have high standards so I worked really hard"she explained in a bow

I nearly chocked feeling the very strong flavors

Amazing cook?high standards?pfffft

seeing my reaction she bowed down in shame and sorrow

"Im sorry"she bowed lower

I quickly stood up holding her shoulders

"is it that bad?"she asked in a lowhigh pitched voice

My conscience chewed me painfully making me think twice about being honest

"it's good"I nervously giggled

"no need to lie master,they keep me out of the kitchen for a reason"she sighed

"no no it's fine" I consoled her

"Its not that bad..."I saw a small glint of light and hope shone in her almond eyes,the trouble is I don't know what to say next

"...Its ...interesting"I got cagey in my comment

instantly the small hope in her eyes were crushed back to sadness

"Andrea you are awake...Good moring'Mama Saphia greeted entering the kitchen holding many paper bags

Thankfully she was here to save me from this painfull situation

me and Rhius stood up and offered her help.As I held one of the bags,Rhius instantly spoke

"Please Master let me..."She offered

"no its fine I got it"I said and seemed to hurt her

I must say I am very new to this type of treatment...

Once the bags are on the island Mama Saphia paused looking at the plate of pasta

"Did you feed this to Maam Andrea?"she asked Rhius in a scary calm tone

"I went out for a while to restore the pantry and here you are trying to poison her with your horrible food!"she angrily said twisting the girl's ear

"Ow!Ow!"she hopped in pain while her face wrinkled

"Take these bags and organize them!"she let go of her ears instantly Rhius shot a glare at her while he rubbed her reddened ear

I made a silent laugh seeing how cute she was

"Im so sorry Maam Andrea"Mama Saphia broke my eyes from the girl holding brown paper bags marching to the pantry

She took the plate of pasta fast before I could protest

"no ma—"

"yes Maam?"she asked

"I was gonna say I am gonna eat it,she worked hard for it"I honestly said

Mama Saphia shook her head

"How about I cook you something that is actually edible"she suggested

I watched the poor girl's hard work completely fall into the trash can

I bit my lip feeling a heavy load on my chest

"you are too harsh mama"I said

"Oh no she set a kitchen on fire once"

My eyebrows shot up

She did?

I thought while I watched the girl miserably pick another bag but was stunned still seeing me watching her with an amused look.She quickly grabbed two bags then quickly walked because of her speed,potatoes fell out of the bags hitting the floor

Mama Saphia shouted something in Russian making her rush and pick them up,she threw me a last glance then ran to the pantry

Why is she acting weird?

After eating lunch ,I am now in my restaurant.Workers filled the place.My designer followed me while she talks about her additional ideas to my sketches

She was interupted by my phone ringing

"Excuse me"I rose my index finger to my designer

I fished out my phone and pressed it against my ear

"Hello?"

"Good afternoon amore"the bastard teased on the other line.I pictured a man sitting on his chair in his of office wearing a darned smile

"cut the shit Romano,what is it?"I asked loosing my patience

"woah!calm down love"he laughed"I need you to come here in my office"he said

"why?"asked

"because I missed you"he said in a seductive voice

"Im hanging up"

"Im joking "he laughed "another business signore Salvador will be coming"

"okay"I replied

business is business

***

I asked Travis to drive me and now here I am before the tall building.

As before,eyes watched me as I entered

I reached the massive doors and noticed a different woman now sat on the table outside

I was about to enter when she spoke

"you cannot enter signora unless you have an appointment"she informed without even looking at me,her eyes stayed on her monitor

As shown from the reflection of her square glasses she is busy with something

"Name?"she asked

"Andrea"I answered obediently

Her fingers sounded the keyboard

Her sharp eyes stared at me probably impatient for my last name

"Romano"I smiled sweetly

As she paused then looked at me

I enjoyed her pale then shakily stood from her chair

"Please go in"she politely said

I pushed the door and I saw the angering ugly face of Romano talking to a man sitting before him

His eyes instantly caught mine then a smile broke on his lips

He stood from his chair then walked before me,his hand firmly circled my waist as he planted a kiss on my lips

I froze on my feet

He just smiled,his eyes shone in a dangerous joy

I took a gulp as his rules replay in my head then walked as he lead me to the couch

Act as his wife...

I need a drink!

The man stood from his chair to greet me as we came close.

my eyes circled in shock seeing a familiar face that I never expected to see.

Ennrique Salvador...just in case you forgot,he is the man who dropped me to the ground back when I was looking for a husband

What do I do?does he remember me?what if he does? Should I hit him with the "What's behind you?!"line then run? 

My thoughts were filled with panic and mixed with anger because of how he dropped me o the floor like a total ass

"Enrique this is my wife Andrea,Andrea this Enrique Salvador owner Salvador airlines"

he kissed my hand

I forced a smile

we sat down and and I cant help but tense seeing his eyes stay on me

please don't remember...

"Im sorry I know this is crazy ,but have we met before?"aaaaaaand there it goes!

I laughed hiding my nervousness

"What?That's crazy"I waved my hand still laughing in a peculiar high pitched laugh.I saw Romano looking at me half amused and confused

"Drinks"I strongly yelled seeing Adriano serve us drinks,my voice is so loud even Adriano paused for a bit

Another load dropped from my chest hearing Mr.Salvador's phone ring

"Excuse me"He said and Romano replied with a bow,he stood up and walked creating distance

As Adriano lay the glasses on the table

"What is this Adriano?"Romano asked

"Whiskey Boss"He replied

"She'll have none"

I looked at him 

"No way I'll have one please"I smiled and quickly held one

Romano nodded at Adriano as a sign saying he can leave

I felt Romano take the glass from me then drank the glass's content

what's his problem?

"Enjoying there Romano?"I asked as I felt his hand still circle my waist pulling me against his body

"mm-hmmm you dont know how much I waited to touch you like this again,best part is I am not breaking any rules I can do what I want"He replied burying his face in my neck

"Stop it"I hissed pushing him

he just let out a low laugh

Mr.Salvador returned to his seat and continued

"Where were we?ah! are you sure?I felt like I saw you somewhere"He took a good look at my face

I laughed strongly again as if I heard a very funny joke making his face bear a confused look

too much reaction for the situation

"You meet too much women Mr.Salvador now your getting crazy"I laughed hiding my insult

he paused for a second then let out a low laugh

"I guess so"

"So,I never thought this man ever wanted to settle down,imagine my shock when I heard finally a woman has turned his head"he laughed

"It's called love Mr. ever heard of it?"I quickly asked 

his eyebrows rose in amusement

"Love?This guy does not even know what that is!"He laughed

"Then you don't really know him"I replied making him take a sip of his drink

nooo!I think my nervousness and urge for revenge for the both men in this room made me lose control of my mouth!

"Well how's being married?"He changed the topic of the conversation

"Mr.Salvador let me tell you why don't you marry one of your whores to find out because I doubt no decent woman would marry an asshole like you"

fuck!what did I just say!?

I silently cursed myself,I bit my out of crontrol lip looking at the man who is wearing a straight and confused face

Romano choking in his drink to laugh broke the awkward silence

"Your wife suits you Niccolo"He said taking a sip of his drink keeping his eyes on me.I was frightened seeing his dark eyes making me hold on Romano's suit

"Well what a nice chat..."His eyes looked at me "Im sorry but I have to go"We stood up and he shook Romano's hands then kissed mine then left

as he exited Romano pulled me closer planting kisses on my neck

"Romano?"

"Hmm?"

"The man left stop with the acting"I reminded the man

"Who said anything about acting?"
