Chapter 2

The sun shone on the window, casting a warm glow on Camilla's sleeping face. Silence was the only sound that ranted the room.

Camilla eyes flarted open but close them almost immediately. she rolled over to the other part of the kind size bed. 

A groan escaped her lips, her eye lids parted slowly. Taking in the sight of her unfamiliar surrounding she was in.

She lazily sat up. The tender ache and soreness in her core, reminding her of the past night incident.

A gasp escaped her lip, and her hand found its way to her mouth covering it as the memories of what transpired between her and Vincenzo flooded her memories.

The rate of her heart beat increased, and breathing became difficult. she grab the sheet's tightly, trying to hold the scream that threanted to burst out of her throat. 

"What have I done?"she slapped herself countlessly. She got down from the bed, avoiding the soreness in her core and rushed to the window.

She expected to see cloud's, but to her surprise what she saw was a big beautiful compand with garuds patrolling around. Realization hit her, she was no longer on the private jet but…

"Where am I?"she questioned herself. She walked away from the window that was when her eyes meet with the wall clock. 1:30pm!!!!!

Never as she slept this long since the day she was burn. She exhaled trying to calm her nerves, How is she gonna face Vincenzo? Her boss. She had messed up real time, but it wasn't her fault. 

If there was anyone to be blamed it should be, her so called husband, ex husband and his mistress, Sophia.

If it wasn't for their betrayal, she wouldn't have been here, but they had to stab her in the back and put the blame on her. 

The ringing of phone distracted her from her worries, she started searching round the room. And surprisely she found the phone ringing on top of bed, wait it was her phone. 

She took it, but frowned when she saw who is was. Ryder. She was tempted to decline the call but held back.

She answered the call and placed the phone on her ear.

"You really thought i will agree to signing this divorce papers? uh! You can't force me to do what I don't want."his angry tone was the first thing she heard and rolled her eyes in the process.

"Suite yourself then"she said and was about to end the call but his next words stopped her.

"Listen to me Camilla, I'm the only man who would bear to be with you. I'm the man who can stand your weak performance in bed. I'm the only man who can tolerate you"he roared and see just moved the phone few inches from her ear and placed it back.

"Isn't Sophia enough for you? Or did she leave after finding out about your problem of getting a woman pregnant? And guess what, I already have a man in my life so fuck off. My lawyer will visit you later the day"she said and remove the phone from her ear, before ending the call.

She immediately blacklist his number.

"What an asshole,"mumbled and threw the phone on the bed, she grab an hand full of her hair and pulled it back.

"Goodness am so cooked"she whispered to herself, and turned towards the door. She needs to explain things to Vincenzo, she wasn’t not in her right state of mind when she made that move last night. She needs to pled with him to spare her, her job.

She turned to the door, and that was when she realized the shirt she was putting on. It was an oversized long sleeve, big enough to cover her body to her mid thighs. She clenched her legs together when she realized she had no panties on.

"Did he wear me his clothe?"she mumbled to herself, and reached to grab the door knob when it twisted open and Vincenzo face came to view. 

She stopped on her track, with eyes wide opened. Vincenzo piercing gaze meet with hers, and she gasp. 

He looked like he was angry, at the same to mad handsome. 

She took a step back and called "Boss"

He just ignored her and walk into a door in the room, like a closet. She stood on her spot with a confused expression.

She thought he would scold for last night, or maybe pour is anger on her. She inhaled deeply before exhaling, trying to calm her nerves.

Just as she was about to take a step, Vincenzo came out of the closet. His shirt was gone, leaving him in his black pants with a gold necklace hanging around his neck. His muscles where attractive, tempting her to touch them but she dare not.

He walked to the window, turning his back to her. She gulped and clenched her sweaty palm together, before finding the courage to speak.

"Boss.. I..I"she stuttered.

He turned and walk to her "about last night"he said, as he stood Infront of her his tall intimiating figure touring over her.

"I.. I can explain, I swear I didn't know what i was doing. I was not in my right Sense. I will do anything you want, please don't…"

"You're not planning to use and dump me right?"he questioned, his deep yet cold voice firm.

"Uh?.. I'm sorry I don't understand what you are saying"she stated.

"Last night when you pleadesy for me to touch you, you told me your husband cheated on you and you are divorcing him."he reminded her. Memories of what she said came flashing to her memory.

"I'm sorry for that, please don't fire me I need this job. I was Just carried, i promise this won't repeat"she pleaded desperately. She planned on having her reveng on Ryder and Sophia, and she can only do that with the help of her job. 

"I never planned on sacking you, I just need you to do something for me"he said and her eyes shone as she moved closer to me.

"Anything, I'll do it"she replied desperately.

"Marry me"he said, his deep yet cold and authoritative voice Commanding power leaving Camilla stund.

****

Ryder smashed his phone on the floor, and it shattered startling Sophia who sat on the couch behind him. 

She spent the night over, and even called Jacob this morning telling him she was sick and would skip the day.

She sprang up to her feet, "what happened? Why did you smash the phone on the ground?"she questioned as she stepped closer to him, stering at the shattered phone.

"That bitch, how dare she! She think i will let her go easily. How dare she cut the call on me. She was even with a man"he barked furiously and Sophia held his face patting it softly, with the aim of calming him.

"Relax. The plan was to divorce her, why are you so worked up about it?"she questioned.

He removed her palm from his face, "you don't get it Sophia, i can't let her go. I'm owning a lot of depths and i need her to pay for them"he explained and she frowned.

"You have me, i mean her salary is only a percent higher than mine.  And you don't have to worry about the house, you can come leave with me after the divorce till you get a well paying job."Sophia said. He smiled and held her waist.

"Are you for real?"he asked. "I am"she assured. He grab her closer by the waist, and claimed her lips in a rough kiss that she reciprocate immediately.

****

"Sir, what you are asking me to do"

"I'm not asking you Camilla, I'm telling you. I know you need someone powerful to back you up, and that person is me."he convinced.

"Sir, i cant be in a relationship with my Boss. What will the public say? That i was having an affair with my boss while i was still married. You don't know Ryder he will play the victim if he finds out."she explained.

"Fuck the public opinion, and fuck your ex. Look this will be beneficial to the both of us, we get married you conceive an heir for the Torricelli family. I will be your back up, when you want to reveng your ex. Think about the possibilities and benefits"he convinced, his voice calm and muliplative. 

She heaved a sigh "It true I need your help, but"

"No buts, think positively." He cuts in.

"Can you give me sometime to make my decision?"she asked staring at him.

"Time is a luxury we can't afford, fifteen minutes before the offer expires."

"What!"
