TRYING HARD

When he left, I look at my hand and smile, then I began to think of a way to escape, I rush into the bathroom, I look to the window even though I was weak. I try to see if I could climb the window, it was too high, I rush back to his window , there was a blind on the window and I try to lift the blind up to see if I could run.

I stood thinking of how to escape but I couldn't think of anyway.

I slipped to the ground and cry so hard.

ALFREDO.

After wanting her so badly under me and wanting to taste how her small rosy lips tastes, I don't know what made me pull back.

Is it her tears? Or her soft voice which she uses in pleading? or her innocent face?I just don't know why I feel like I shouldn't touch her now, I don't know why I felt she isn't ready for me.

I have never thought this way over any of my toys.

I turn on my phone to the personal CCTV in my room installed on my phone and I saw Charlene going from one place to the other in my room , trying to look for an escape route.

I smile at the way she was trying to look for how to escape because I know she can never escape from me then after so much try ,she breaks down and cry.

She stood up and was going to walk towards the window when she collapsed.

I turn off my phone and stood up and I rush to the room and open the door, I pick her up and place her in the bed.

I called the doctor and he arrived at about fifteen minutes later.

He checked her and the doctor said she collapsed due to hunger and weakness.

I step out of the room and order my maids to prepare Charlene something to eat.

The doctor took his leave while she lays in the bed . I stood in front of her with my hands shove into my pocket.

"How are you doing? I asked her instead of her to respond , She just burst into tears and ask me to let her go.

" Please let me go" she said sobbing.

I walked out of the room and shut the door behind.

I walk towards the living room when my brother Marco badged into my living room in anger.

" Alfredo! Alfredo! He keeps yelling my name while I climb the stairs, taking my steps one after the other with my hands inside my pants pocket.

" Why are you yelling my name like that? I replied.

I already know why Marco is here and why he keeps screaming my name, I know it is because of the Auctioned I cancelled.

" How dare you call off the Auction?! He yelled at me while I went to sit in my living room.

" Because I changed my mind" I said and cross my legs.

" Are you kidding me right now? He asked.

" No, I am damn serious" I replied.

" You must be joking! We all made this decision, you might be the heir but this is a family business and things don't work that way! He said raising his voice.

" But I made the final decision " I replied softly.

" Don't tell me you are claiming that girl? don't tell me you want to make her your new toy? He says.

" What if I? I asked and look into Marco's face.

"You have no say on that girl because that money borrowed to her dad belongs to the family's account and the money has to be returned into that account! My brother yells at me.

" I will pay her dad's debt and after then she will belong to me" I said.

" You want to......? Marco tripped off.

" You heard me, I will pay the $10,000,000 owed to the family by her father and she will become mine" I repeated firmly.

" No! We have a plan to sell her off to make double money of what her father owed the family" Marco says.

" Meaning we have a plan to Auction her for $20,000,000 right? My brother stares at me with no word.

" Isn't the amount we are talking about $20,000,000? I asked and my brother nodded.

" I will pay that amount to make her mine" I said and bring out my phone from my pocket and I made a transfer of $20,000,000.

" I will send you the screenshots of the transferee payment and you can verify the family account if you want" I said and stood up.

My brother was stunned to see me mix pleasure with business because it’s always money on my mind and I don’t mix pleasure with business when it involves money.

Even whatever I had done buying Charlene and making her mine surprises me

I turn on my phone to check the CCTV on my phone again to see if how she is doing and I could see her manage Rostand to her feet and wanted to take a step and she falls down again.

I stood up and go into the room. She was trying to stand to her feet but was just too weak.

I pick her up and place her in the bed.

"Hey, don't hurt yourself, it's not good for you" I said.

CHARLENE.

I began to wonder how he knew I had fallen again or is it just a co incident? I just want to go away from here, I don't want to be here.

" Let me go, I can pay you per installment " I said.

" How many years will it take you to pay that huge amount? He asked and I had no response to his Questions.

" For your information, I just bought you for the sum of $20,000,000 from my family, so how will you pay that money back to me? He asked me softly.

Tears dripped down my face hearing I am now his official slave. I just want to go away from Alfredo.

" If you co operate with me, I won't hurt you , where we will have a problem is you trying to run away from me like you have been trying to because you now belong to me" he said.

Someone knocks the door and he stood up to go and open the door, he collects the food and locks the door.

He takes the food to the dinning for two that was in his room, he slowly pick me up from the bed and place me in the chair.

He help me mount some food into my plate, I stare at the food. The truth is I am hungry but still want to go.

He stare at me as I wasn't eating the food. He pulls me up and place me on his laps, I wasn't comfortable on his laps , I began to try to struggle my butt on his laps and he uses his hand to held down my butt on his laps to sit well on his laps.

He moves his lips to my ears and slowly whispers into it.

" I don't bite and I won't hurt you" he said softly.

A part of me wanted to relax by when I flash back to me being bought like a slave, I didn't relax instead I began to think of what to do to escape from Alfredo.

" You need to eat, starving is not good for you" he says.

 Slowly I look back to steal a look at him and he gave me a smile.

I quickly took the fork out of his hand and began to eat. Not because I am hungry or because he said starving is not going for me but because I realize I will need so much energy to escape from here.

I can see there is no amount of pleading that will let him let me go.

I ate all the food and drink water with many things going on in my head.

I try to stand up but I was still weak and I as about to fall down and I fell into his arms.

I looked up into his eyes and he didn't take his eyes off me, I quickly look away and tried to stand to my feet but he picked me up in a bridal style carefully and place me in his bed.

For the first time I noticed what Alfredo’s eyes look like and his face.

To be honest he is such an handsome man and has six packs, he is also tall.

I look away because I do not want to admire Alfredo, I just want to escape out of here.

He tucked me under the duvet carefully and he whispers into my ear.

" Don't try to escape again because you cannot escape from here, it will do you lots of goods if you relax yourself and sleep" he said and kisses me on my forehead and he walks away and locks the door.

I lay down tired and didn't know when I drifted into sleep.

ALFREDO

After a long day , I walk to the store inside the house and check all the packed drugs and the ones my men prepared to deliver to one of my customers the following day and walk into my room.

When I entered she was deeply asleep. I stood and stare at her beautiful face.

" Even in sleep she looks innocent and beautiful" I said softly.

A string of her hair fell to her face and I help her slowly pull away.

I feel like kissing her and having sex with her, I slowly sit beside and bend down to kiss her lips but stopped as my lips got closer to her lips.

I stood up and undress, I walk into the bathroom and took my bath, I went to lay on the couch till the next morning.
