I sat down still on my bed for the rest of the night, terrified and afraid that he might come back again to finish what he started.

The rays of the sun lighted my room, it was morning again and I felt relieved but fear still occupied my heart, this is still his territory and be it morning or night, that won’t stop him from doing whatever he wants. Besides he said it before, he has the right to do whatever pleases him.

Just as I sat down, I heard the squeaking of the door knob. Fear embraced me once again, I couldn’t feel my body. My heart jumped into my stomach as I broke out in cold sweat

“Cassandra are you awake?” I heard the voice loud and clear, it was Celia. “I just wanted to check up on you.” She said. I gave out a sigh of relief and made my way to open the door for her.

She walked in hurriedly like she was been pursued, I locked the door back and made it to my bed again and squeezed myself underneath the duvet, I was terribly shaking

“Cassandra, are you alright?”

“Yes, I’m fine.” I replied in a low tone.

“Are you sure? You don’t look okay.”

“I’m fine.”

“Well, if you say so. I just want to have a look at your bruises and apply a bit of ointment on the legs.” Right, I totally forgot she was sent to attend to my wounds.

I turned around and sat up on the bed, she took a sit beside me and began to examine the wounds that had been inflicted on me

I watched her closely while she did her duty. I noticed some marks imprinted on her neck, it looked like a man fingers. Could it be that he left me alone and took it out on Celia. I began to think again, but yet ended with no answer. What could possibly be the reason why he had to act in such a cruel manner?

“You should attend to yourself,” I spoke out.

“What do you….Ohh, I see. You must be talking about the marks on my neck.” She paused for a moment. Grief and sorrow where all I saw on her, but she was just trying to cover it up with a smile. “Its nothing to be worried about, soon enough it will be gone.”

“Are you certain about that?” I asked with great concern.

“Yes, I am certain.”

I could not ask anymore questions for I don’t wish to make her upset and I couldn’t bring myself to tell her what happened last night. It’s better I keep my nose out of it.

“You seem to be perfectly fine, and your wounds. They are responding positively.” She said.

“Its all thanks to you,” I tried to compliment her hard work.

“You flatter me. Do you feel pains anywhere? Is this the only part I need to attend to?” she asked and stared with keen interest. From her looks, I could tell she was trying to ask if Mariano did something terrible to me.

“No, I’m all good.” I replied. It’s best she has no idea of what happened last night.

“Well then, I should get going. You should come down stairs for breakfast, he is cooking.” She took her exit.

Surely I was hungry, but I totally forgot about it due to the fact that I was scared and frightened by him. But what does she mean by the phrase “he is cooking.” What is going on?

I made my way out of the room and walked down to the dinning hall. To my greatest surprise, there wasn’t a single dish on the dining table. Of a sudden, I heard the staff voices as they cheered in the kitchen. Curious, I thought of visiting to see what could be going on in there.

Opened the doors slowly, I walked in. The entire kitchen staff surrounded themselves, a delicious scent filled the air and suddenly the began to chant his name. I drew closer to them and I could not believe what I saw, Mariano the ruthless tyrant was dressed like a caterer and was cooking. My eyes flew wide open in disbelieve.

The manner in which he handled the dishes, how he sliced off the onions, and every other thing he did was amazing, it was like a master chef cooking. Indeed I was impressed, and not just that, the entire staff had smiles on their faces and the kitchen was filled with laughter. Even him had smiles all over his face, he looked different. I had never seen him this happy, maybe I did misjudged him.

He turned his face around and saw me standing amongst them. Our eyes made contact and then I looked away and excused myself from their mist.

I took a seat at the dining hall, and after a short while, the chef came rushing in as the set the respectful dishes on the table. Mariano followed alongside though still dressed as one of them and I could hardly notice until he took a seat.

“You must be hungry, I made roasted pork stew and dumplings.” He said with a smile. “Have a taste, I want to here your review.”

He is indeed something else, but today he looks entirely different, like a normal person.

“You’ve been staring for long. Aren’t you going to try it out?”

“Ohh right, sorry.” I said. I took a spoonful of the stew and tried it. Surprisingly it was delicious and tasty.

“Well.”

“Where did you learn how to cook.” I bit my lips as I realized who sat in front of me. “It’s delicious.” I said.

“Are you sure? You don’t look satisfied with the taste.”

“I mean it. I haven’t tasted something like this before,” I replied.

He giggled. “Thanks for the compliment. Bon appetit.” He dig into the set of breakfast set on the table and so did I.

After two spoonful, I stopped and looked at him. Yesterday he was a complete different person but now, I don’t know who I am seeing. Could this still be the same man who walked into my room the previous night and scared the heck out of me.

“You seem to be spacing out.” His voice caught my attention and took me out of my world of thoughts.

“Sorry, I just had something on my mind.”

“Is this about last night?” I felt cold chills on my spinal cord. I thought he was drunk last night, could he be that he remembered everything that happened. “I’m sorry on how I acted. It was never my intention to take advantage of you.”

“Did you just apologize?” my eyes widened in surprise.

“Of course. Doesn’t it scare you?” he took a spoonful of the stew.

“Not really, I’m just surprise that the great Mariano would apologize for an action he committed.”

“I see, you must think of me as some sort of monster. It’s not your fault, you aren’t the first one that has said it.” He dropped his spoon. “I am not a monster Cassandra, but that doesn’t mean I am a nice person.”

He took out a servient and wipe his hands with it and dumped it on the table.

“I will be heading on and will be back by sundown. I have made reservations for a special dinner tonight but that will be up to you if you wish to come with me.” He stood up from his seat about to leave. “I know it’s hard to live in such a huge mansion as this, it gets boring being by yourself all the time. You can do whatever you want in here, if there’s anything you need ask the maid to get it for you. I do not wish to hurt you Cassandra. So, please try as much as you can not to do anything stupid or to provoke me, for I don’t tolerate disobedient and stubborn girls.”

The atmosphere around him is different, like he is a different man. I haven’t seen him this way before, even on TV or journalist’s reviews. Well it’s my first time being closed to him this much, but I never expected that the world most dangerous man in Santiago had a cheerful part.

Is there anything wrong with me being here?” I asked as I noticed the sudden change of mood.“He doesn’t like anyone sitting by the TV, or on his chairs. He gets angry.” “Ohh I see.

You don’t look so happy? Did the maid offend you?” I looked not at him but stared right into the empty space in the room. “Cassandra, I am talking to you.” I kept on with the silent treatment.He walked closer and stood beside me. “Cassandra, look at me in the eyes. Did the maid offend you?” he asked again and my behavior remained the same. “You know, you should answer me now that I am trying to be nice. Do not anger me.”I turned to look at him.

We walked and it was just the two of us, no one else was found. He must have made reservations for tonight dinner. I followed him quietly from behind, we got ourselves a table and there we sat down opposite each other like a couple on a date.“What would you like to have Sir.” The waiter said upon arrival.“I will have the usual.” He replied.“Ohh, I see.

Sorry Cassandra but I can’t do what you want me to.” She said as she coldly reject to speak.“Please Celia. I’m begging you.”“I’m really sorry but I can’t tell you anything. I wish I could but I just can’t. Besides, It’s best you don’t know.” She stands up from the bed and made it to the door. “Well, if that’s all, I will have to exit myself for now. If you need anything, I will be downstairs doing my duties as usual.”Just as she grabbed hold of the doorknob, I knew she wasn’t going to say a word and that means, I have no other option but to let the cat out of the bag this time.“I saw him crying last night.”The room was filled with utmost silence, her hand froze at the door knob.

    Dusk came and time swiftly moved on, I hadn’t move an inch from where I was sitting. Terror was filled in my heart as the thought of me being taken by him as a way to payback for my father’s sin occupied my head.“Calm down Cassandra, you need to calm down. Nothing is going to happen, besides he made a deal with my father, I don’t think he will go against the terms of their deal made.” I muttered as I tried consoling myself.Growl. My stomach began to tremble as I was able to calm myself down, I hadn’t taken neither food nor water. I looked at the window, the sun was setting, then I realized I had been in the room all day long. I stood up from the bed and made my exit, I got hold of the doorknob and fear was instill on me again.“What if I run into him on my way out?” I withdrew from the door. How am I suppose to face him, no this won’t do me any good. I should face it still, if I don’t I will have to do it later.Finally, I opened the door as I found a bit of courage but just as I st

    Seated on the cold room floor. My eyes became watery as I was at the brink of tearing up, all that was left in from of me was nothing but darkness ahead of me. What did I do to deserve all this?A knock came from outside of my room. I stood up and opened the door, Celia who stood at the front saw me as I gave in to tears.“Oh my God, Cassandra what happened?” I couldn’t respond, and continue to sober up. She walked in and held me in her embrace, soon after she closed the door and took me over to the bed.“Cassandra, what’s wrong?” she asked worried.“I don’t know what to do Celia. How am I going to live my life? What did I do to deserve this?”“Sssh, don’t say a word anymore, just lie down on the bed. Everything will be okay.” She said as she patted my shoulder gently like a mother would do to her little child. “Is all going to be okay. Alright, you are exhausted, you should lie down and rest up.”Just as she consoled me, slowly my eyes began to close, my vision was blurring and faded

Why does he what me to put on such a dress? What does he have in mind for me tonight? And the club, what is he really up to?“It won’t do you any good thinking about it. You should let it go and enjoy the moment.” Celia’s voice came to me as it brought my mind back into reality.“No matter how I think about it. I just can’t seem to arrive at an answer. I have been thinking, what does he want to do with me?”“That’s a question even I can’t answer.” She said. “Cassandra, let it all go. Just free your mind of it and let it go. You can never know what he may be thinking, all you can do is accept whatever comes your way, but no need to panic okay.

    “Oh my God…..ahhh.” I moaned in pleasure as his finger kept on digging and stretching the walls of my vagina. I couldn’t help it anymore, I was lost in sweet sensation of pleasure. His hand picked my nipples, they were as hard as rock, swollen as they stood erect. He caressed my nipples gently while his fingers kept exploring dip inside of me. I was on the edge of climax and couldn’t hold on much longer. Still stroking dip, his tongue made contact with the tip of my vagina. My legs shook in response to the pleasure my body has received. I could feel the hot air emitting from his nostrils as he dipped his face in between my thighs. He was sucking my vagina. “Mariano, please don’t stop.” I let out a soft cry of pleasure. He kept on as he wasn’t ready to stop either and I wasn’t ready to let it all end. I wanted more, I wanted him. Teasing my clitoris, his finger went right through, deeper this time. I was at climax and close to orgasm. Mariano stopped and lifted his head from between my

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. .

    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’

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

    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

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.

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.
