“What if I can't do it?” she said with trembling lips.

The man sighed and walked up to her. He slowly reached for her hand. He then opened her palm and placed two pills inside.

“We’ve talked about this over and over again June. You are not a baby. You can pull this off so go out there and show Daddy that you're a smart ass.” he said and patted her hand tenderly.

June opened her palm and stared at the pills. Then, she slipped them inside her purse and took a deep breath.

“I've done a lot for you child and I'm not asking you to pay me but if you can pull this one trick off, I'll be the happiest man in the world. I won’t ask for another favor other than this but if only she knew that it was just the beginning of his endless demands.

She shut her eyes and felt a sense of calmness beginning to envelop her as he continued motivating her. He thenmoved closer to her and grabbed her arm like he was going to hug her.

Then he began to whisper into her left ear.

    "Sir, we're here." The driver announced as he swerved into the garage of the Wells Mansion.David slid out of the Mercedes, feeling quite antsy at the thought of being back home. The Wells Mansion was huge and fancy. A whopping two-story building that left a pauper's mouth dry. The evening sky, a swirling mix of blue and orange rested above the lit-up house. Before the building itself was a wide spread of well-tended shrubs on either side of the road.It was a good thing then that David was no pauper. He barely gave the huge building before him a glance. Dressed elegantly in a gray, three-piece, Italian suit, he strode towards the arched entrance where a familiar face greeted him with a wide grin."Well well well, if it isn't Old Benny!" David grinned, baring a perfect set of white teeth. His green eyes glinted with mirth as he clasped a hand on the butler's shoulder."Welcome home, Young Master," Ben Baker greeted, smiling so widely, David thought his cheeks had to hurt."Is it a wel

    A shrill sound rang loud in the air, jolting Sylvia out of her yoga session. She groaned, unraveling out of a child's pose, and stretched her limbs before reaching for her phone on the bed.Swiping her mass of golden blonde hair away from her face, she frowned at the name displayed on her phone's screen."Why's Dad calling?" She mumbled. He rarely called her. And considering it was almost ten at night, she had known he wouldn't be coming home that night. "Papa?""Hello,"The voice that replied was not her father's! Alarmed, Sylvia rose to her feet. Her hazel eyes were wide in fear. "Who the hell is this?""Is this Sylvia Bakers?" The man who had picked up the call asked, ignoring her questions."Yes, this is Sylvia Bakers. Who are you and what the hell are you doing with my father's phone?!""Calm down Mrs. Bakers-""It's Miss," she bit out. The more evasive the stranger was, the more she got nervous. Something had happened. Her father wasn't careless. He would not have lost his phon

    "Are you sure about this?" Sylvia smiled at her boss- well ex-boss considering she had just submitted her resignation letter. "Yes," she replied. Her boss, a Scottish man with beady eyes and red hair scattered sparsely across his bald head, dropped her resignation letter to the table and clasped his hands. "If you need time off to grieve, I can give you that Sylvia. It's been a week since your Da died and I know it's hard. I can remember when I lost mine too. I was a wee lad, y'know?""Cam, don't make this so hard-""No," he said stubbornly. "You're one of our best chefs. You can't just resign. If you want time off, I'll give it to you. Go, grieve, and come back-""I don't know if I'll come back, Cam!" She yelled, feeling pressured and uncomfortable. She had felt that way all week. Pressured. Carrying a heavy burden on her chest that she could tell to no one. Who would believe her anyways? Nobody. No one would. Everyone in the entire world believed that her father had slipped and

    Sylvia could not look away. The pictures in the hall hadn't done David Wells any justice. They hadn't shown muscles that rippled beneath his bronze skin. They hadn't shown how powerful his arms were as they wrapped around the maid. They hadn't shown his sexy backside either. Tanned, hot, and incredibly toned. Mesmerized, she watched him thrust into the maid furiously. Watched him toss his head back in a groan, his eyes closed as he relished the feel of the maid clamped tightly against him. Her thighs clenched jealousy and she shuddered at the sensations that simmered within her. David's eyes opened suddenly, and piercing green eyes met hers. She gasped in surprise at being caught and for a minute, he held her gaze while he fucked the maid. Feeling conflicted and incredibly turned on, she tore her gaze away from his and raced back to her room. David watched the blonde run off and arched a brow, intrigued by her. Somehow the maid before him no longer seemed interesting. Heck, she had

    David stiffened noticeably beside his father, his hands tightening around his fork. Sylvia frowned at the movement and then looked back at his father who gazed at her expectantly. "Sure thing sir," Sylvia mumbled and turned on her heels. "Sure thing?" Shane scoffed as soon as they were in the kitchen. "You don't say "sure thing" to the Master. That's rude and obnoxious!" Sylvia ignored her. "Luna, Mr. Wells says some June Castello is coming over-" "By God, you need to work on your filthy manners!" Shane spat. "Shane, quiet down and go join Anabelle in doing the dishes or something!" Luna chastened. Shane turned red in the face. "She has the manners of a cow! June Castello isn't some random person. She's the queen of Hollywood!" The young girl faced Sylvia, a vicious look on her face. "And you had better address her as Mistress Castello when she gets here!" Astounded, Sylvia watched the girl stomp out of the kitchen. What the hell was her problem? Was it because she had seen Sha

    Sylvia shifted her gaze from left to right wondering why David, in all his sexiness was standing right outside her door, clothed in grey pajamas, staring at her intensely like a meal he couldn’t wait to devour.If he was back for another intense adventure then he had better be prepared to be slapped by a rejection. As far as she was concerned, she was in the mansion to solve the mystery behind her father’s murder not become David’s mistress.She raised a brow and was about to mumble a word when June slipped out from behind. Dressed in an emerald night robe that barely made it to her knee, June Castello had been standing behind David.Sylvia’s heartbeat skyrocketed in an instant, and dozens of questions began to flutter in her mind.Did June come to confront her about her mischief with David? Did David tell June anything? What if he lied that she seduced him? What were they doing by her door at 10 pm?Sylvia was beginning to slip into a panic. June cleared her throat loudly, jolting S

    By the time Sylvia got to the kitchen, color had drained from her face. “Are you okay?” demanded Luna right after Sylvia walked in, looking startled. Sylvia realized that she had unconsciously made it to the kitchen. She lifted her head and gave repeated nods. “I’m good.” “Why don’t you fix dessert? Master David asked for it. I’ll see what Shane is up to.” Luna replied and walked up to Sylvia. She gave her a slight tap on the shoulder with an approving nod and stepped out. Poor girl! Luna thought. She must have not yet gotten over the loss of her dad. Sylvia shifted to the counter and positioned her hands on the table. She began to take deep breaths. Get a grip on yourself Sylvie she told herself. Be brave! A fact about Sylvia was that she was not adequate at masking her emotions. Whether it was fear, anxiety, or guilt. Somehow, her demeanor always communicated it. She clenched her jaw and pulled the fruit basket toward her. If she must carry out her revenge task, she knew that

    “You said we were only visiting June. You didn't tell me we were also going to see Cathrina.” Sylvia lamented as they traced their way towards David’s car.“If we are bent on making things right then we have to leave no stone unturned,” David replied. When they got to the car, Sylvia threw her back against the vehicle and heaved a deep sigh. David moved closer to her. He tilted her jaw with two fingers. “As long as you're with me, you don't have to worry about anything.”She threw her arms around him. “I love you, David.”“I love you most.”They got into the car and drove away. After driving for about twenty minutes, they made it to the detention center. As usual, Cathrina was informed of her visitors and she granted them an audience. The moment Sylvia and David walked hand in hand, Cathrina became emotional. She sniffled as tears began to well up in her eyes. The duo settled on the bench facing her. “You know what Sylvia?

There’s June to deal with, there's Griffin, and now…“Do you trust me?” David interrupted.She turned to him. “You know I do.”David swallowed and took charge of her hands. “There’s something you need to know.”He was staring directly into her eyes. Sylvia felt a tingling in her eyeballs. “There’s something you need to know too.”David sighed and then cleared his throat loudly. “I'll go first.”Sylvia encouraged him with a nod.“I met June recently.”Her eyes widened in horror.David didn't take his eyes off her. “I left home the other day because I couldn't bring myself

She had thought about it the whole night and was ready to face one of her demons.She walked up to cell 4 as instructed by the woman at the counter and before opening the door, she stopped to ponder.What if David rages mad at the idea that she went behind his back to confront Cathrina?She sighed and reminded herself that she was on a personal quest.

    David pulled open the door to his chamber. He walked inside with a bright smile and traced his way to the mirror.“I'm going to be a father!” David muttered under his breath as goosebumps took charge of his body. He stared at his reflection with prestige. Amidst the chaos, David never thought that he could be this happy. He cupped his face with his hands and broke into a resounding laughter. He quickly moved to the table beside his bed and began to pull all the cabinets out. When he got to the last cabinet, he collected all the photos and dumped them on the floor.When David returned to New York, he had asked his agent to get him the pictures of all the curvy girls in town; The one's he found appealing to the eye and for the past few months, he had been exploring them.“No more!” David declared and seized the pictures.He grabbed a matchbox and dashed out.
