Lena’s Point Of View

(Bipolar??)

“You know, my Gwen used to love being in the garden, she loved to take care of the plants, she loved to water them and I watched her do it all the time. Would I say it was one thing that always made me happy because I was happy to see my Gwen happy.” I could hear the emptiness in his voice. He touched the plant and kept walking further into the garden.

“Was she kidnapped? Or did she leave?” I asked

“I am still looking for my wife, she went missing, when we were on a vacation and I couldn’t find her one day.” I was surprised that he was explaining further, he was actually talking to me about his wife. He had told me not to bother him or talk to him about private matters.

“I am about to lose everything that my father had worked over the years for. I will lose my father’s wealth and all that my wife had worked for before getting married to me and even if I could not find my wife, I cannot allow myself to lose any of that.”

    (2 weeks Later) Lena’s Point Of View“Chi è questo?” (Who is this man?)Dante asked in Italian and I was fast to understand him and give him an answer to his question, it was a question answer section with him and as much as I hated this, I loved that I was getting better in everything.“Signor Manuel, il suo padrino” (Mr Manuel, your godfather) I watched him smirk softly and I knew that he was about to make things hard for me, I had answered a lot of his questions perfectly and he wanted to make sure that I was as good, he would intensify the questions if that would help.“Torna alla porta, entra e saluta tutti i membri del consiglio.” (Go back to the door, walk in and greet all the board members) as he said this I felt my spirit leave my body, this was the hardest part of it all, I could barely master all my vocabulary and at times I felt that I was saying the things the wrong wayI gulped hard then walked to the door of the room, I held my head high, raised my shoulders, and wal

    Dante’s Point Of View(I hurt her)I had hurt her, she was bleeding profusely and I could tell that she was in a lot of pain. Why did she have to get me angry, why did she have to provoke me? I rushed to her and although I didn’t want to touch her because I knew that we had signed a no physical touch contract. I just had to, IPicked Lena up and took her to her room, since she fell roughly on the broken vase because of her shoe, there was a big glass that pierced through her skin.Iren saw me carry her in and helped me with her, Lena bit her lips to avoid more tears from coming, she cried silently like she always used to do.I couldn’t watch what was happening so I let Irene take care of the wound and when she was sure that Lena was fast asleep she came out of Lena’s room and I went in to be with her. As she had told me, Lena was fast asleep, I walked in the room and saw the petite figure of my fake wife sleeping on the bed.I was hard on her, I knew it but that was because I thought

    Lena's Point Of View (A good day)It was the next day already and my arm was heavily wounded, It still stung and ached every now and then but it was much better than before. I and Dante had not done any practicing that day so it was basically almost like a day off. I had been in bed for most of the day and I fell asleep a few times. The maid would come in every few hours to check on me and then, she stopped coming. I was stronger. She didn't need to pop in anymore.Finally, I had enough and decide to do something else. Maybe some reading would be a good idea. I gingerly got up from my bed and headed downstairs to the study. There was bound to be some good books in there after all I was allowed in the study and a few other rooms I’m the house.I walked into the study to pick a book and saw Dante going over some files. I tried to walk away unnoticed but he had already seen me. I never thought that I would want to be invisible so badly."Lena," he called me gently but sternly and I t

    MLena's Point Of View(Hold me tight)It was new day and the birds were chirping madly in the trees. I found myself in bed and I honestly didn't know how it happened. Did Dante carry me from the theatre room? I can't believe that I fell asleep during a movie that I had chosen and asked him to watch with me.The door open gently and Irene came in."Good moring Miss Lena. The master has asked me to tell you to get ready that you will be having an additional class to your Italian and Latin one. How do your bruises feel by the way?"I moved my hand and a bit and tested the arm."It feels better.""Good. Well, get ready. Do you need any assistance having a shower?""No. I think I can manage."Irene nodded and left the room and I exhaled deeply. What other class could I possibly be having? Well I wasn't going to find out if I stayed in my room.I headed to the bathroom and had a quick shower. It was slightly difficult because of my bruises but I was able to manage.I got out of the bathroom

    Lena’s Point Of View(A weird Italian class)A new day rolled in and I was very excited for my classes that day. I had my Italian class with Vincente and then I would meet Dante after for heels and dance class. I remembered the way he held me that day when we danced. His grip was confident and firm and the mere thought sent shivers of pleasure down my spine. I stopped thinking. What the actual fuckI almost didn't want to get up from my bed. I spent the entire night dreaming about the experience. How I tripped and he caught and held me so close and I fantasized about kissing his lips. I had a steamy night indeed. Why the hell was all this suddenly popping in my head?I had a quick shower and took extra time in choosing what I would wear. One dressing mishap and I could forget about dancing with him at all.I headed downstairs and went to the already set dinning table. And for the first time, Dante wasn’t in the dinning room before me. I sat at my seat and thought to wait for him."Don

How dare he, does he know who she is?I grabbed him by his shirt and threw a punch at him. “Who the hell do you think you are to touch my wife the way you have done. Are you mad? You want to take advantage of her?” I sent a punch to his face and continued to hit him on his face. The moment I saw the condition that Lena was in, her turn cloth and opened wounds, bleeding wounds and ruined make up, I couldn’t help it.

I wasn't thinking of anything that would make me anxious or cry, I was thinking about how good things have been, I was thinking of my family and I was happy.“Nothing Gwen, I just remember old times. I remember when I just had Lilly and look at my baby now, she is 3." As I said this, Lilly giggled and she lifted her hands up signaling that she wanted me to her up.I picked her up and hugged her so t

    LENA’S POV“I have told you for the umpteenth time to stop moving around, you are going to spill your head all over the place and take my work back. We wouldn’t want that now, would we?” Gwen rambled while moving around the room, sliding between tables and chairs to get to whatever it was she was meaning to pick.“Sorry,” I mumbled, trying hard not to giggle at her frustration. I find it amusing, to say the least.“Yeah right” She rolled her eyes, finally returning to where she stood at my back. “As if that is going to fix the hair” She brushed back the string of hair that fell out of place and tucked it back to where it belonged before toasting and then combing aside.She went back to her previous task of trying to get my zipper up and getting me all set in the white, floor-sweeping gown she urged me to pick. She was putting in her all to make sure I looked perfect from every angle even going as far as wiping a bit of sweat resting on my forehead. “Okay, okay now take a few steps let

    Dante’s POVI was meant to focus on the work I had to finish that morning but there’s always something about Lena that distracts me. I watched her carefully as she wore her earrings, then her necklace. She was in a smart jumpsuit that highlighted her figure. The warm nude suit made her skin color shine as bright as the sun. It seemed that all the stress we’ve been going s to through has already been wearing off her. She seemed to be in a good mood that morning, as she was humming to a particular song as she got ready. It felt like it would be a good day, I felt quite the opposite way. It seemed like something bad was going to happen, and no, it wasn’t the weather. The sky was bright and the sun smiled gently as well. I don’t know if it’s because I always know how it ends. I would always feel happy and accomplished, but then something would happen and ruin it all. I was used to it. All of a sudden, Lena gave me a cold glare. “Do you want us to be late, Dante?” “I-“ “I don’t want to
