‘Our wedding was held on the 10th of October, none of us were happy with one another that’s the very least. ’ Ella sat in front of the mirror as her hired stylist was already doing her job, placing highlighters on her eyes. The makeup session was nearing an end and after a while the makeup artist was done. “There we go. You look meraviglioso (wonderful)” She said in her Italian accent. Ella just nodded and stood up from her chair and exited the room. She didn’t feel happy nor sad she just felt numb. She knew it was inevitable and later that day they had to consummate regardless of Ella consenting or not, those were customs set by the matriarch of the Reeves family.

She drew her breath reminiscing of the pain she endured at this manor, she pulled her suitcase to the front door and pressed the bell alerting whoever was inside.“Who’s there?. ” a familiar voice responded as loud footsteps drew closer and closer to the door from the inside. Ella resisted the urge to face-palm at her half sister’s stupidity, the door mechanism had a built in monitor linked to the micro cameras installed at the front door.“Brittney it’s me Ella.” She replied, annoyed at her sister.The door opened and Brittney stuck her head outside, she scowled a bit before replacing it with a smile. “Ella! How is my favourite elder sister?
‘After that eventful night, I couldn’t get my head around the fact, Keenan was some sort of an assassin and his family became this rich through dirty money. I began to do my research in secret hoping to get an insight on what was going on.’Ella sat on her bed, tired from the last night’s activities. The party dragged out till three thirty in the morning and she was expected to welcome and make small conversations with the guests. On top of that, she was to clean the villa.Changing out of her sleeping wear, she looked at the engagement ring and could help but sigh. “ If he was different I would be ecstatic but…” Ella sighed and took a pair of training clothing from her large walk in wardrobe and quickly dressed herself and headed to the villa.She arrived under fifteen minutes and opened the large double doors.

Many of the family members were ecstatic for us but I could tell it was a façade. ’ The party was in full swing, and the Reeves villa was crowded by people, coming from far and wide. All accomplished businesses men and women, they were there to congratulate Keenan for getting engaged. “Keith!!!.” A voice yelled out amongst the people, Keenan turned around and smiled at the figure who was approaching him and Ella. ‘That time I think, was the only time I ever saw Keenan smile.

Ella sat there, drinking her
‘I sat there wondering how my future husband is going to be like, kind maybe? A Narcissist? All these thoughts flooding into my head. I think I can feel a migraine brewing, I should stop now.’Ella gazed at the road as the car moved along the highway, the silence unnerved her to her core but she decided to hold her tongue due to not wanting to get in trouble with her in laws.After a while, the car stopped and the doors were opened by two guards from the outside. Ella’s eyes widened as she looked at the villa, it wasn’t a normal villa from the size of it, it could be a village.To think that something this big is owned by this small family. She thought to herself getting out of the car, and onto the red carpet set near the exit of the car. The red carpet led to the main and biggest villa in the compound, where she presumed it was where the main family was living.“ Stop
