Chapter 4: Madame

Chloe's Point of View

I woke up feeling sore between my legs but I still tried to stand up with all my might because I didn't want to stay in bed. My eyes landed on the laptop so I quickly went to grab it. I just wanted to know if someone would come looking for me while I was away. Did anyone try to contact me?

As soon as I turned the laptop on, I logged into my social media account just to see that only one person messaged me which was my best friend. Not even my aunt, uncle, or Angelica left me encouraging words to face what I am going through since they are the ones who did it.

“Why did you not come to school today?" Jennifer messaged me this morning.

She is not my only friend in school but I guess she was the only one who found it weird for me to not go to school for a day since I don't skip class. I need higher grades to keep my scholarship to be able to continue my studies since the school that I am in is one of the prestigious schools. No one knows about me being a scholar except for Jennifer and we keep it a secret because we know how some students there are at other scholars. Also, my friends from the elites are not going to accept me.

“Something happened and I don't know if I could be back to school for a few days," I replied.

“Why? What happened?" It seems like our professor is not yet there since she can still reply to my chat.

“It's a long story and a bit complicated. I will tell you about it when I am ready." I don't know how I will tell her that I am sold to a rich guy. She would flip out when she found out about it.

Jennifer is a very protective friend of mine and I know what she would do when she finds out what happens to me. She already wanted to confront my aunt for not helping me out with my studies after they spent all of my mother's money on their own gain. I didn't even get anything from it.

“Don't tell me that your aunt became a total b*tch again?" She asked and sighed because I could tell that she was already annoyed and I didn't want her to talk to Angelica since we were in the same university.

“No, she didn't do anything for me to be absent today," I said.

“Are you sure?" She assured.

“Yes." I lied just for the peace of mind.

“Alright. The professor is here. Got to go." She replied for the last time before going offline.

I closed the laptop and placed it carefully on the table because I was afraid that I would break it. It is an expensive gadget so I already know to myself that I can't afford to pay for it. There was also a phone on the table but I ignored it thinking that maybe he had forgotten about it while the computer and the laptop were already part of the room that should always be there. I don't want to assume that he had this all bought for my use.

My stomach started rumbling which made me bite my lips. I also rubbed my tummy to ease it however it didn't. Maybe the maids here would let me help them work for a little food.

I went out of my room and found my way to the kitchen where everyone was busy. They are all surprised to see me.

“Madam, what are you doing here?" One of them asked.

“I am hungry so if you could." Before I could even finish my sentence she panicked.

“We are so sorry, Madam. We didn't know you were already awake." She informed me in a worried tone.

I just stood there while still confused about why they were acting like this and even called me madam. They are all even serving me as if I am their boss or what.

“Please, follow me and your breakfast will be there in a minute." The head maid said and I did follow her. I even walked fast to keep up with her because I didn't want to upset her since she looked grumpy.

We went to the dining hall and pulled the seat for me so I awkwardly sat down. I am not used to when people would serve me like she does. They all did it politely which was new to me since I would be the one serving my aunt when I was with them.

“Please eat, madame." The head maid said and I did.

I did my best not to look like I didn't have proper table etiquette even though I was already starving to death. The food last night was fantastic but I was too shy to eat properly when that man was with me in front of the table. I don't want him to tell me that he is going to bring me back to that auction because I look like a pig when I eat.

“Excuse me," I called one of the maids. “Where is Alejandro?"

“He went to the office, Madame." She answered with too much courtesy.

This is too much. Their actions are alien to me and I don't know how to take it anymore.

“Please treat me normally." I suddenly said. “I am not one of your bosses."

They all look at each other and the head maid is the one who faces me which makes me gulp. Will she nag me about what I just said?

“Deeply apologies, madame but you are like a boss to us since you are Mister Alejandro's guest." She explained. “We are also happy to treat you like this."

I just sigh because it seems like I have to get used to this kind of treatment until Alejandro addresses that I would be one of the servants here too. Maybe then they will treat me normally like they should.

The whole day Alejandro was not around which made me feel free to walk around the mansion of his. Everything looked expensive which made me feel nervous to touch anything until I reached the garden. It was the only thing that I think did not cost that highly except for the fountain and some decorative. I just stayed there the whole day to relax until it was almost dark.

“Mister Alejandro is here now." They all said which made me panic. I quickly walked and went up the stairs.

“Chloe." He called my name before I could even go to my room which froze me. “Turn around, kitten."

I swallowed the lump in my throat before turning around slowly. He is staring at me without any expression.

“Yes?" I asked trying not to look as nervous as possible.

He walked towards me and I could feel my chest pounding so loudly. I never felt so nervous before until now. He even walks around me while looking at me from head to toe which makes me conscious.

“We are going to a party so make yourself pretty and the gowns that you will fit will be here in a few minutes," he said and walked passed me.

I let out a sigh of relief thinking that he would leave me be but I was wrong since he stopped midway. He turned his head to his side a bit.

“Don't embarrass me." He added before leaving me there completely.

I went straight to my room and after a few someone knocked on my door so I opened it to see that the maids were carrying numerous gowns. They entered the room with some women who were wearing something luxurious. I am confused about everything and Alejandro is also here.

“These ladies will be the ones who will help you get ready. They will do your hair and make-up while the maids will help you take a bath." He stated as if it was nothing. “I want to make sure that everything will be perfect."

He left as soon as he finished letting me know what was going on. I can't believe that I am stuck with a man like him. He didn't even let me know that these people would touch me but they are already here.

“Let's get you ready, Miss Chloe." What they called me made me sigh in relief because madame was too much for me.

“It is nice to hear that you all stopped calling me madame," I said while smiling as I climbed into the tub.

“Sir Alejandro told us to call you just that." They explained.

I didn't ask any further questions because I already knew why he said that. He didn't buy me just for me to be here like his girlfriend or just a companion. I am here for his own amusement or entertainment.

They all started putting some makeup on me after the bath. The women that Alejandro hired are the ones who chose my gown which is the red one. It also has a red mask with some stones on it which makes it all shiny like the gown.

“We are going to call mister Rodriguez to tell him that you are done." One of the ladies said before they all left me all alone.

It didn't take long until the door opened. Alejandro was the one who entered the room. He is eyeing me from head to toe.

“I should give them a huge tip for making you look like a ruby from being a rag." He stated which made me feel embarrassed.

He started walking toward me and I slowly backed away but my back reached the walls. I can smell his manly scent of cologne when he is already close to me.

“I have something for you to wear too." He said with a smirk on his lips.

What he said made me bite my lips.

I have watched this too many times in the movies. He is going to show me shiny jewelry to wear at the party and he will tell me to keep it when I give it back to him.

“What Is it?" I asked.

“This." He showed me a v*brator which made my jaw drop.
