Whipping her head up, Itzel looks him in the eye. His cold grey eyes which seem a little too unnatural, hold an unwavering belief in them. A belief that tells her and almost draws her to absorb in what he just said is the truth. That indeed, she is not a bad omen or anything but she is just like any other human being out there who are lucky enough to have this life and happy that they have a family to love and take care of.

But who is she kidding? She is just not normal! With this attitude of hers at least, no she is not! And, she does not have a family to call her own. Yet. Or maybe, she will never have one, with that problem of hers. She lowers her head to look at anywhere but him. Dmitri immediately notices the change in her demeanor and wants to ask her many questions as yo why she would think of herself as this. But deciding against it, he just sticks to the case on hand. "Look how peacefully he is sleeping now!" He almost cooes at the puppy infront of them. Itzel too, can't hel

    Coming out of the master bedroom, Dmitri descends down the stairs and towards his room. But before he could go into the room, his eyes fall on a man who is behaving all friendly and touchy with Itzel. With one of his hand holding onto a briefcase, the man, who looks like he is a mere twenty something years old, has his other hand around her shoulders. She too, is not opposing his touch! What the hell is wrong with her? His palms get fisted tightly as he sees the both of them coming in through the door and walk past him up the stairs. Is this the same guy whom she was talking to earlier? Without wasting another second, he rushes to go behind them and follow them discreetly. Not like they seem to notice him anyway. They are just too busy with each other's company to even notice his presence. And that kind of vexed hell out of Dmitri. Unknowingly, he wants all of her attention just on him! Even if it sounds too selfish, he does not care at this point. All he wants is Itzel! So, now comi

    Back in her room, Itzel sits on the balcony chair while staring out at nothing in particular. Her mind is full of thoughts of a certain someone right at this moment. Valerie. It was the name Dmitri had given to his American corn snake which he was so fond of. It has been two years since she has heard anything from him. And she does not happen to hear anything about him in the news as well. For a successful bussinessman like him, he sure is a secretive and not so swanky one out there. Itzel has known him for six months from very near. But before that, she has been keeping tabs on him with the help of her father's secretary who so happens to be in love with her antics till now. When she was a mere girl of seventeen, she was sure that this was the man whom she needs in her life as her man. How naive was she to even think of such a thing back then! But now, she would not give a second thought to that sort of idea in her head. If it ever comes back to her. Dmitri was fond of keeping exoti

    With a loud sigh Itzel plops on the chair infront of her dressing table while holding a beautiful sequin mint green sundress in her hands. Her brown eyes look so dull as she stares at her reflection in the mirror. Why does she have to go for this breakfast date, which is also a blind date for her? Just because her father said, no, ordered her to! Every fiber in her body is screaming for her to not go. But does she have a say in it? No! With another sigh, a short one, she gets to work. After applying a little foundation, eyeliner, some mascara and compact powder and lastly some pink lipstick, she dons the sundress and pairs it with a light green sling bag in which she keeps all her essentials like her phone, her chapstick, some mouth fresheners and some cash. Wearing a pair of black stilletos completes her look for today. And she is all set to go out. When she descends down the stairs, her father's secretary is standing there waiting for her. "Hello, Itzel darling!" She greets her with

    "Oh, no! Damon, stop it now!" Itzel rambles out with a humph. But Damon being Damon does not listen to her and keeps on making her fun. "My sweet, sweet Itsi is scared of geckos! Oh, really? Geckos? They are the sweetest reptiles I know!" Damon rants and rants about actually how good geckos are. Apparently, Damon, her best friend from elementary school, has got a gecko to look after for a few days since its owner is out of station. This is one of his many part time jobs as a teenager in high school. "Excuse me, I am not scared of that thing, okay! But look at him! He is an obnoxious creature." She literally cringes while looking at him standing at a two feet distance from it. Damon places one of his palms on his chest and gasps, faking hurt. "Do not say like that, Itsi! Look how sad he has become because of what you just said! Oh, no baby, don't mind her. She is just jealous because she is not as beautiful as you, okay?" This time Itzel gasps at him. How could he even say that? She

    Pacing back and forth in her balcony, Itzel feels like she is going to faint anytime soon as she starts hyperventilating. Ruci Dmitri was there in the restaurant where she went for her breakfast date! But why was he there? And with whom? Needless to say, maybe he was still with that woman who had red hair and green eyes. But it could be that he is with someone else now. Who knows! Oh, she is going out of topic again. The matter here is why is he back now? After two long years! Or maybe, he is here for his business? And what did he say? A pleasant coincidence? It was anything but pleasant, at least on her side. Their meeting was anything but pleasant, but sure it came as a surprise to her. She has got to see Ruc after two years! Surely he has changed a lot. His face was clean shaven and he has gained more muscle now. But what has not changed even a bit were his azure colured eyes. Those beauties never fail to draw her into them. And what surprised her even more is that he did not look

    "Oh, look at you! You look beautiful!" Her ma compliments her. Donned in a night sky blue colored body fit gown which has two slits starting from just below the knee, Itzel is all set to go out for the movie night. Hearing her words, she blushes and with a soft smile mumbles a shy thank you to her. Before she can say something else, a knock comes at her bedroom's door. She tells whoever is at the door to come in since the door is not locked. And in comes Mr. Taylor. As soon as he steps in, his breath gets hitched which he so subtly tries to hide from the ladies present in the room. Standing infront of him is Itzel in that beautiful dress looking stunning. He notices that Itzel is looking at him with a different look, like she is curious and thankful at the same time. What is it with her? "Mrs. Singh, Mr. Singh is looking for you. He says that he has told you that he would have his dinner early tonight which you did not inform me before." He tells her to which she gasps. "Oh, did he

    The door to the kitchen thuds open and enters Dmitri, looking all agitated and angry. Placing both his hands on either of his hips, he starts pacing back and forth on the kitchen floor. They were hugging! Itzel and that guy Archer were hugging while sitting inside his car! He saw it all! But he just could not hear what they were talking about. Well, does it even matter? What he saw was just too much to take in for him. How could she do this to him? Oh well, why could she not? Was it not him who had told her that he did not want her? Was he not the one who had proposed the divorce between them? Even if it was for her own good, he can't expect her to wait for him to come back one day and just magically forgive him and forget the past and be back with him! Hell, she still does not even know why he had to divorce her and distance her from himself! So, he can't really blame her if she is choosing another man to be in her life now. He has no right whatsoever, even if it kills him to know.

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Chapter 17: Who is Itzel?

    THUMP!! The thick opaque blue folder drops down on the ground infront of him. Dmitri looks up at the man who has done that. With a sick smirk across his lips, the man with salt and pepper hair and beard stares down at him before jutting his chin at him. "What you lookin' at, Dmitri? Huh? What is it with that glare of yours? Do not forget that you are in my territory right now!" He growls at him lowly. "Now, if you kindly take this file and go through it, it would be very nice of you, you know." The man orders him with a silent wanting lurking behind his voice. Dmitri sighs boredly with a nonchalant look before getting up and taking the folder lying on the ground in his hands and then going back to sit on the couch behind."You know all too well that I am my own person, right? I do not take orders from anyone. Not even that man whom I address as my boss." Dmitri says to him with the same bored expression as before after reading through the files that are in that folder. "And if you kn

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Epilogue: Itzel Ruci Dmitri!

    It has been a whole week since Itzel got kidnapped, for real! Ruc had dropped her at the Singh mansion right away after rescuing her from that evil Alexeyv Dmitri. Itzel wanted to say it back to him at that very moment, she wanted to say 'I love you too, Ruc!' to him but something stopped her from saying so. Like some supernatural force had put a knot on her tongue. But she plans on saying it today! At first, Itzel was not sure if she should or not, thinking that then she would have to tell him everything about her 'condition' so as to convince him to forget her and be with someone else, as much painful and heart shattering it would be for her. But turns out that her ma had already told Dmitri everything just on the next day of her returning home. When Itzel confronted her by asking her why she did so, she simply told her that she could see how she was suffering from the inside by not being able to choose the right thing, which is to forgive Dmitri, tell him everything, and then be w

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Chapter 73: "Thank you, Ruc!"

    Dmitri sits down on the coarse, wet ground as he feels his ears ringing and heart palpitating. Placing a hand over his thudding chest, he closes his eyes briefly and takes in a long breath in before exhaling it through his mouth. 'You can do it!' He tells himself as if giving himself a pep talk. 'For your Itzel!' With that, he stands up again and after one last deep, calming breath in, he starts running towards the entrance of the old, worn out warehouse where they must have kept Itzel. Dmitri knows for a fact that he has been keeping her here only as this is basically the base of all his kidnappings and shippings. For him, Alexeyv Dmitri is nothing more than a vile, cruel man! Even if he is his biological father! That man is the sole reason why Dmitri had to push his love away from him, thinking that if she stays away, he would spare her. But now, Alexeyv Dmitri has some other plans. He is set to use his Itzel for heinous crimes that would profit his illegal business! But, to hell i

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Chapter 72: "They took her!"

    All the curses and badmouthing which her father had thrown her way after she had gotten into that horrible accident, are still so fresh in her head! He never once did think how all of these would affect Itzel. What really mattered to him is how he would manage to get her into a marriage again! In these two years, Mr. Singh had tried everything in his power, had consulted every other doctor and specialist to find a way to reverse her, well, 'condition', as he liked to call it. But none of it worked in his favor. How could it have, anyway? Itzel simply does not possess a uterus anymore! The only options for her to have a child, if she ever wants one, is either to have a surrogate or to adopt. Though she does not have any problem with adopting a child in the future, she is not quite sure about it. Like every other woman in this world, even Itzel wanted to have her a child of her own, to get to feel everything that a pregnant woman feels! But alas! She does not have that privilege anymore

    'The fuck you are!' Itzel all but wants to yell at his face but refrains herself from doing that. God knows what else Dmitri would do to her and maybe, she would lose her control and sanity all at once. "No, you are not." Itzel mutters stubbornly. But Dmitri just smiles fondly at her showing his pearly whites."So, I was right." He mumbles causing her to frown. "You are just in denial!" Then he lets out a small laugh. "Take your time, Itzel! But remember that in the end, you are mine." As he says this, a shiver runs up her spine causing the small hair on her nape to stand up in attention. Itzel used to feel this way whenever she saw Ruc either angry or dominant on her, and she even felt the same way whenever Mr. Taylor went all so commanding on her! Then, is what Dmitri saying true? Well, it is! And Itzel is aware of it. But is she ever going to admit the same to Dmitri? No, perhaps never! Even if she wants to get back with him now, she could not. She would be just ruining their life

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Chapter 70: "I am still your Mr. butler!"

    A smile creeps onto Itzel's face as she watches her mother sleep on the bed peacefully with a hint of a smile on her own face. She looks happy, contented even in her sleep. Looking at the wall clock, Itzel lets out a long breath. It is now three in the afternoon. She has been here for the last two hours. But it is all worth it after all. She has managed to pull her mother out from self hate and guilt to some extent. Well, it was quite difficult to convince her that she had not murdered Mr. Singh but at least she told her that she does not hate her for killing him. And, that worked pretty well for them. Seems like Anu is not sad and guilty because she thinks that she had killed Mr. Singh but because she thinks that now her daughter would hate her for killing her father. After talking with her mother and then feeding her some healty porridge lovingly and tucking her to bed, Itzel kisses her on her forehead one last time and heads out of the room to go out. "Anita, Marc, I think I shou

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Chapter 69: Misunderstanding

    'You surely don't know how dangerous Alexeyv Dmitri is then!' Itzel recalls what Dmitri had told her just a few minutes ago when he let go of her hand. She is still quite surprised that he actually let her go out! And how does he even know the name of the boss of the mafia for whom she and Itzel work? Even she did not know his full until Dmitri told her! And just how much more Dmitri knows about that man? On other thought, Itzel thinks that Alexeyv Dmitri is somehow related to Dmitri, not only because their surnames are the same of course. They somewhat look alike as well. Though Itzel has seen him just once that was when she went to plead with him to let her join back the street fighting because she could not keep up the job of a temptress stealer. She has seen him in person and still remembers a few of his facial features clearly, like he too has azure eyes and jet black hair. "Madam, we are here." Itzel snaps back from her little bubble and blinks at the driver. With a quick nod,

    "What about her?" Itzel asks immediately in a low tone. When she mentioned her mother's name, her concern skyrockets and she can't help but feel restless now. "Is everything all right?" She asks her. "Don't worry, the doctor said that she is much better now but the thing is about something else still concerning her." "What is it?" Itzel asks, curious to know what Anita wants to tell her about her mother. "I am afraid, you have to come over here so we can talk about it." Anita replies."Uh, okay. I will be there but it might take some time for me to reach there as I am not in the Singh mansion right now." Itzel tells her while sending an accusing glare Dmitri's way. "Oh, okay. No problem at all! Come at your convenient time, I am home today for the whole day." Anita tells her to which she replies as a quick thank you and see you there before hanging up. Itzel then goes to call back Damon finally but suddenly her phone gets snatched away from her hands by Dmitri. "Hey! I was going

    "Itzel! Do you want to know what is there for lunch?" She hears Dmitri's voice coming from outside the room in which she is in right now. "Anyway, let me just tell you then. Hmm, so we have here grilled chicken and spring rolls! And for dessert we have..guess what?" He is trying his absolute best to make Itzel come out of that room but she is not having any of it now. Even if she is hungry right now, she would not go out of this room to eat with him. Because, well, she is angry at him. Wait, no, not just angry but she is mad at him for pulling up such a stunt with her earlier. How dare he send his assistant to kidnap her and literally lock her up in this haunted, abandoned building! Itzel has made up her mind that she would never talk to him ever again, even though it sounds too unrealistic to her own ears. But at least she could try and put up a nice, long tantrum drama with Dmitri, right? Standing outside the room, Dmitri lets out a defeated and tired sigh as he eyes the closed doo

  • Falling for Mr. butler   Chapter 66: Kidnapped!

    'KNOCK..KNOCK!!!' Itzel almost jumps out of her bed as the loud noise of banging at her room's door pierces her ears. "Coming!" She yells at the person who is being desperate for her to open the door. As she gets up from the mattress, her phone starts ringing too.'Tring! Tring!' It causes her to jump again as she gets hit on her left thigh against the bedpost. "Ooww!" Massaging her thigh with her left hand, she ignores the constant ringing of her phone and goes to open the door. When she does, she finds a man in his early or mid forties standing there looking at her with a frantic look on his face. "Yes? Do I know you?" Itzel asks the man frowning. The man just shakes his head at her."No, miss. You certainly do not know me but I was sent here to get you to the hospital with me. Your mother, Anupriya, is awake up and wishes to see you. Could you please come there with me?" He asks very politely and Itzel finds herself nodding her head, agreeing to go with him to the hospital when
