Klara sighed heavily recalling her past. What's the use of thinking about her unrequited feelings? She is so stupid to love a man like Ralph who regards her family as sworn enemy. She's really dysfunctional to fall for a man who's nine years older than her and lives with the agenda to hurt her family all the time.Years passed by like river stream but her feelings for him didn't waver least bit rather grew stronger. She didn't know how and when but Ralph got under her skin like a slithering poison. She couldn't get him out of her system and didn't want to either. She just need him in her life. Maybe she's a crazy person to have crazy Ralph obsession over years but she's okay with it.Being with Ralph felt so natural and sometimes she doubts her existence because without him there is no purpose of living. It's like a body without soul. And she needed that soul which belonged to him for her survival.She got down the bed and opened the chest she hid in the secret chamber underneath and
Dylan gestured Milo to have a seat beside him and served him food as Aurora is busy cleaning the kitchen. He totally ignored the couple who were too stubborn to succumb and concentrated on the delicacies."Moron!"Klara muttered paying no heed to Ralph's arrogance and placed the wallet in his hand."Keep it with you all the time"She patted his chest with a hint of warning in her tone and then sat on his lap eating the food as she's hungry after shopping for hours. Ralph sighed placing the wallet on the dining table. How come she's never bothered to care about anything? She came, ate his food, bossed him around like he's her slave and now she's sitting on him, devouring his dinner."No no no. What did I say?"Klara dropped the fork and took the wallet again shifting on his lap and faced him. She searched for the pockets but he's wearing pyjamas with no shirt pockets thus she grunted and checked his pants to find one on his right side."Little wolf"Ralph held her roaming hands angrily
“I am full”Klara ran upstairs leaving Ralph dumbfounded. Dylan and Milo were unbothered unlike Cecelia who is cooking something in her mind to plan a perfect trap to make Ralph hate Klara. There is no more tolerance and she has to kill two birds with one strike, one - to severe the relationship between Ralph and Klara and two - making Ralph fall in love with her. “Aurora can you store the chicken for me. It’s delicious”Klara shouted from upstairs before going into her room. Milo who just took the bowl to serve the chicken felt a sharp glare on him. He looked at Ralph who is boring holes on him and immediately placed the bowl down bowing to Ralph. Fuck! Why is master glaring at him? How would he know what Fiona liked? He wouldn’t have touched it if she told him earlier. He gave a threatening look at Dylan who is trying so hard to stifle his laughter. Aurora rubbed Milo’s back with a grin and took the chicken bowl away to put it in the container to store in the refrigerator f
Ralph didn’t spot Klara in her bedroom when he entered thus he approached her bathroom but hesitated to open the door because the last time he checked, he almost lost his self control inside and now he knew in what state would she be in. He waited for a while but heard no sounds from the other side so after few deep breaths he braced himself and pushed open the door to see her sleeping in the bath tub. He asked Dylan to remove the locks of the bathroom as she is a troublemaker because given her personality she can use the bathroom to lock herself as she couldn’t lock her bedroom door to avoid him. He predicted her thoughts and removed bathroom locks ahead. He crouched beside the bath tub gazing at her sleeping damp face. Her body is naked under the soap water, hiding her glory with foam from his eyes. His throat felt dry as the water droplets dripped from her forehead to her nose surpassing her rosy lips, descending down her throat and then the valley of her…..fuck! What a suffoca
‘Are you still the little wolf I know? Or did you change like me?’Ralph stared at Klara’s face for a long time raking his brains about his choices and decisions. What is his purpose of locking her here with him? It’s not like he’s going to use her as a bait but why? His gaze slowly moved to her limbs which stuck to him like a koala.‘Why did you agree to stay with me? Is it because you want to take revenge for hurting your family? Are you the spy from Kingsters? Are you going to hurt me little wolf?’Recalling about her parents deeds, he removed her hand and leg from his body sitting up straight as his body tensed with unknown tremors. Lacking of his warmth, Klara started to feel restless as her hands moved around searching for him. Ralph looked at her frowning face and placed a pillow beside her before standing up and left after watching her sleep peacefully. He didn’t go to his bedroom but went to the other end of the corridor into the punishment room. He shut the door and r
“Klara, be careful. You’ll get hurt”A eleven year old Lucas is running after a young girl who is running faster than him. Enrico is behind the Roselli siblings shouting at Klara as his heart is on the edge seeing the little girl running carelessly. “Klara. Don’t run. You’ll fall”Enrico was a year younger than Lucas but the boys grew up together like twins brothers. The three of them were playing swing in the playground but Klara ran into the house all of a sudden ignoring them. Lucas and Enrico chased after her in fear, looking at her pace. Lucas could never let his sister get hurt and so is Enrico.The six year old little girl, Klara stopped in front of Ralph gasping for air. She licked her lips brushing away her messy hair which was ruffled by air when she ran to him. The three couples stood aside watching Klara and Ralph who are looking at each other in amusement while Lucas and Enrico stood behind Klara with their wide eyes staring at Ralph like he’s a ghost. Big brother!
Klara woke up the next day with a refreshing smile and sat up stretching her body. After few seconds of blinking her sleepy eyes she turned to her right to see a pillow lying next to her. She remembered hugging Ralph before sleeping according to her vague memory. Did he put the pillow beside her? Wait! Did he sleep in her room with her?Her cheeks flushed red imagining their bodies hugging each other. It’s not first time they slept together but that was when she’s a kid. She recalled the past where she is so adamant to have Ralph’s attention. She still didn’t know why she wanted him to be her husband. That’s so childish of her.Daisy and Julia loves to capture every moment in their cameras and Daisy’s hobby is to make portraits with those pictures. When Klara was born Daisy and Julia decorated her bedroom with family pictures and she grew up watching them every day but Ralph’s picture attracted her the most. His golden eyes were very sexy and attractive. She would look at his portra
Silence descended in the dining room making everyone hold their breaths except Ralph and Klara. They didn’t move or say anything but only looked at each other for a long time. Ralph didn’t mean to hurt her but he just lost it when she touched him. Last night was a mistake, he shouldn’t have gone to her room and cuddled her to sleep. He couldn’t sleep the whole night and his brain didn’t stop thinking about their childhood. This is all because of his negligence around her. He allowed himself to let his guard down and he hated it. Klara turned her face away not willing to look at the person who wouldn’t bat an eyelid to treat her like a shit whenever he wanted. She’s not ready to deal with him yet, so she turned towards Milo standing up from her chair. “Milo! Let’s unload the bags” she commanded walking out of the Onyx to get her shopping bags leaving Ralph to his madness. Her hatred look and cold tone didn’t sit well with Ralph. He should be the only one who could command people,
“You are going to be alone for the rest of your life with this attitude of yours. You are not going to find peace, happiness and salvation…”Klara who opened the door heard Luc’s words and her eyes stormed with fire. She pushed Ralph who is hovering over her in concern out of her way and darted towards her brother. Lucas is startled by Klara’s sudden appearance and the way she’s coming at him…he is horrified to see his sister raging like a bull. Before he can apologise her for his loose tounge, she grabbed his collar and rose him to his feet. Her action alerted Luc’s men and they pointed their guns at Klara and immediately Ralph’s men aimed their guns at Luc’s men. Lucas gestured his men to put their guns down and looked down at his angry sister. “How dare you Lucas Roselli?” Klara said clenching his shirt in her fist, her eyes red from anger. “I…I didn’t…”“Shut up! He is not alone. Did you hear me? HE IS NOT ALONE. And if anyone who’s going to end up alone…it is YOU, not h
Lucas’ office fell into silence as Ralph’s words startled Klara who lost her soul instantly thinking about what he said. What if the bullet pierced through his heart? Her world started to crumble just imagining his loss but if he’s really de…..no way. No f-ing way would she allow him to leave this world before her. Ralph frowned sensing Klara’s silence. He just tried to test her limits but didn’t expect to see her depressed. Did she take his words seriously?“What happened little wolf?” he asked grabbing her chin and tried to tilt it towards him but Klara shook her head getting down from him.“You may continue your talk, I need a moment”She said and went to the restroom walking around the room so naturally as if she’d come here countless times which she actually did because she came to Luc’s office very often in the past. Lucas sighed staring at his sister’s back. When did she become sensitive? Just few provoking words from Ralph changed her entire mood. He turned to Ralph get
Klara felt so good talking to her friends after a long time and knowing that they’re living their life in their way, she couldn’t express her joy in words. And in their conversation, Neil asked her if she needed anything from Diston as he’s currently living there…She thought about the list but Ralph already bought her everything she needed except paint brushes, so she asked him to buy them for her as he’ll be back in three months. If she’d known about Ralph’s Diston trip, she would’ve asked him to get them from Neil. It’s been more than a month since she talked to Neil, he would’ve bought them for her but what’s the use…..she can’t use them until two months. While she’s sulking over her loss, Ralph’s anger returned and he turned around Klara roughly clutching her jaw, glaring at her with his rage filled eyes. “Ask me if you need anything. Why did you seek that kid’s help?”Klara didn’t expect Ralph to react this way but she didn’t get angry instead she chuckled patting Ralph’s
“What are you doing?” Klara covered her body with her hands looking at Ralph warily. He started undressing her as soon as he placed her on his bed. Is he really that horny? For god sake she’s injured. Ralph pinched his nose bridge feeling tired. She is not making it any easier for him. He just wanted to check her body for other injuries. “Show me your bruises” Klara gave an embarrassed smile for misunderstanding him and undressed herself slowly. She didn’t have a scratch on her face but her torso is planted with few small green patches and the one on her ribcage stood out among them. She winced removing her pants as Cecelia kicked her thigh hard once. She cursed in low voice and pulled down her pants slowly, there it is another bruise. She lifted her head feeling the temperature drop around her. Oh no! The moron is angry but she can’t avoid bruises during a fight. She isn’t embarrassed or ashamed of these tiny wounds on the contrary she is very proud as she made her
“You..”Aiden watched helplessly as Lucas restrained Freya in his embrace and lifted his fist to punch Lucas but Freya stopped him in time. “Aiden no. I am alright”She said and then turned to Lucas who is burning with rage as his eyes bore holes on Aiden. Freya knew that look, he’s on his limits. She didn’t want them to pick a fight for no reason and she didn’t have strength to deal with them now. She didn’t even have strength to free herself from his embrace as she is tucked under his armpit like a chick under hen’s wing. “Mr. Roselli what…”Lucas shot her a death glare making her shut her mouth. Aiden didn’t like Luc’s actions and tried to snatch her back but Freya stopped him again and gestured him to stay still. “Tell him to fuck off”Freya shivered hearing Luc’s angry voice and gulped gesturing Aiden to wait in car but he’s adamant. “Ad, please”She said helplessly and pleaded him with her eyes. Aiden grunted in frustration and left gritting his teeth but not befo
Freya lived her life to the fullest in every phase. Take it her school, college and office….she faced all the hurdles with courage and passed them in determination. She wasn’t born with silver spoon but she did earn a lot after getting job and settled her parents with a business. She has a life full of emotions….joy, happiness, sadness, fear, anger, everything but love never had a part in it. She became strong with each passing day and with each difficulty she faced but why is it hard to face Lucas? Why can’t she push him away? Why can’t she just….she didn’t know what to do with her broken heart and with the courage she gathered for the past few days… she came to Lucas to have her freedom from the shackles she bound herself.“Mr. Roselli”She braced herself and called him again when Lucas didn’t respond to her. She would’ve thought he didn’t acknowledge her presence if it isn’t for his change in stance from playful to stern.Looks like he’s happy without her. A mere sight of her
Ralph’s breath caught in his throat when he saw the bruise on Klara’s body. He rushed to her side and picked her up swiftly, taking her upstairs. “Wait! I…”Klara looked at Aurora and then at Ralph in worry. Didn’t he see her condition? Why is he not letting her get treated? And the way he held her, it’s embarrassing. She’s not a kid to carry her like this. Even Aurora got tensed because they still has to make pie and Klara is injured. She didn’t know what to do as Master is taking her. But why? Why is he taking her away while she’s helping her with the ice bag? “Fiona! What about the p…”“Hush!”Klara shushed Aurora before she can finish her words. Ralph halted his steps, taking his time to look at Klara in his arms and at Aurora who is fidgeting with her dress nervously. He furrowed his brows and asked her in his usual cold tone. “What is it?”Klara supported her body on his hands and cupped his chin showing him her best smile and whispered mischievously.“Secret”Ralph
Ralph stormed into his room feeling disturbed by the kiss. He removed his suit and unbuttoned his top button exposing his neck and looked at his reflection in the mirror. Where did the Ralph Erikson who frightens people with a single glare go? Where is the man who used to rule an entire empire of more than hundred people go? Instead he's seeing someone who is unfamiliar yet glowing man who is driven by emotions. He groaned in frustration rubbing his swollen lips and red ears to wipe away the blush. “Fuck it”He cursed walking back to the bed and collapsed on it running his fingers through his hair thinking about the kiss. It’s over. Klara made him her puppet and he lost his self control he preserved for years surrendering to her kiss. He used to be the man who kills men with the sword but now he is using the same sword to cut flowers for his little wolf. That’s how she influenced him. “Damn you woman”He sat up still feeling the tingles on his lips. She did something to him with
“What the fuck are you talking about?”Ralph lost his patience and yelled at Klara earning gasps from the crowd. Mistress! Mistress! Who the fuck is that damn mistress? He never had a mistress for fuck sake.“The truth”Klara said turning to the people who are very immersed in the argument. She isn’t offended by Ralph’s harsh yet rude tone because she’s close to unveiling Cecelia’s proud mask. So what if she couldn’t defeat her physically? She can take away her pride and arrogance. This is called the real win. “The truth about the identity of your mistress AKA Ms. Cecelia Sabella”Cecelia rose to her knees shaking her head in denial. She better do something before that bitch spouts nonsense. She shouldn’t let Master misunderstand her. “Ms. Wilson! I do not understand how you got this information but let me assure you, I would never dream of becoming the mistress. I am certain”Of course she is aiming for the queen position. Klara is well aware of her scheme but she’ll unmask
