ELVIRA

As soon as those words leave Demetrius's lips, I immediately shift my gaze to Hendrix who has a disturbed and annoyed frown plastered on his face. He looks shaken and taken aback as though Demetrius has spoken the most atrocious thing on earth.

Although Hendrix doesn't look happy, his facial expression is just so funny and I cannot help but let out a soft chuckle.

As soon as the laughter escapes my lips, Hendrix glares at me playfully and shakes his head with disapproval.

“Demetrius," he finally speaks up after a long silence but then again, he keeps quiet as though thinking of what to say.

Finally, after a long silence once again, he speaks up with a frown.

“Why are you so annoying, Damien?!" He whines like a little child that had been told to sleep. “You and I know how much I despise going to the market and you still told me to follow my sister in-law today!"

I mouth an ‘oh’ as I understand the reason for the way he had reacted earlier. There are some people who naturally don

    ELVIRAHendrix looks so funny that I can't stop laughing. He looks like he's been told the worst news of the century!"Of course we're going to take the cab!" I say with a laugh. "What did you think, your majesty? That we would take the private car into the market and attract attention to ourselves? Man.. you have to wake up from your slumber""But..but..is that not what people use on a normal base when going to the market?" He asks again with a worried expression. I can see his throat moving up and down as he gulps down saliva really hard to stop his nervousness."No, your majesty," I say with a sarcastic laugh. "Normal people make use of the cab to go to the market!""But..but that is not true!" He argues again. "My mummy uses her private car to go to the market!"I feel like smacking my head out of frustration. "Mummy Quintin might be using a private car to the market, but this market I am going to, you make use of the cab!" I retort as I try to reason with him. "And besides, the c

    ELVIRAI ask Hendrix with curiosity, "What the hell have you been doing with your life, man?"He turns to look at me with a pout on his lips.“What do you think?" He responds, laughing. “All my life I have been locked in an office being a lawyer!"Just then, it hits me like a ton of bricks! Hendrix is a very renowned and popular lawyer in the city, and taking him to the market with me is going to draw a lot of attention toward us, which I don't want.Fortunately, the market we're going to today has a boutique close by, so the first thing we need to do is get a disguise for him as soon as possible.After some minutes of driving, we're almost at the market, and I immediately stop the cab so that Hendrix and I can go to the boutique.“Sir," I call politely. “Please, can you stop here for a moment? We'll be out real quick."Thankfully, the taxi driver is a kind man and seems to understand, so he stops. Hendrix and I get down from the cab and enter the boutique. We walk into a stall wher

    ELVIRAI take a deep breath, trying to steady my emotions."What do you mean, Hendrix?" I ask as I sniffle hard to fight back the tears that are threatening to fall down my cheeks.I am not the type to endure being lied to in the face and I am beginning to feel sad."Don't argue more, Elvira," Hendrix says as he places a hand on my lips to stop me from saying more."Alright," I say with a sad pout.Although I am curious, I just have to swallow down my words. I don't want Hendrix to think I am an annoying leech."Taxi!" I flag down a taxi."A cab?" Hendrix asks as the taxi stops right in front of us."Yes, Hendrix, we are going to enter a cab to go home or do you want to walk back?" I ask with a sarcastic tone."No," he replies, shaking his head vigorously. "Let us go in," he says."Good boy," I laugh as the both of us enter the cab."Hendrix," I call as soon as we make ourselves comfortable. "It is okay if you don't want to tell me anything about Demetrius's business life. I promise n

    ELVIRA"So what is this dare going to be about?" Hendrix asks as his throat bobs up and down while he swallows hard nervously.“Heavens,” he sighs tiredly as he mutters again. "Women.”I frown. "What is up with you and women?!”"No, nothing,” he shakes his head, letting out a nervous laugh. "I know for sure what you are going to tell me to do would be crazy!”"So you are not interested anymore?” I ask with a raised brow."No, no,” he shakes his head. "I am very much interested, don't mind me. But, just spill it out, what the hell should I do?! Don't keep me in suspense, it is killing me!”I laugh as I shake my head. "Hendrix, Hendrix, calm down,” I say."What should I do to make you forgive me, I promise to do anything, please!" He pleads with a pout again.I grin mischievously as I speak up. “Anything huh?" I ask.“Yes," he replies with a nod, looking as though he had just made the worst decision of his life.“Then it's settled!" I finally speak up. “You would cook with me when we go

    ELVIRAI think you guys are like super rich, so how come the maids didn't know you were cooking?" I ask again. “Sister-in-law," Hendrix grumbles. “You see, my mother has a personal kitchen where no maid is allowed to go, so I made use of that one," Hendrix says as he face-palms himself. "You are just like your husband," he mumbles. "Yo..” I try to say, but the cab comes to a halt. "Quintin mansion, ma'am," the cab driver says as he stops. Hendrix and I then get down from the cab with all our grocery bags. "Thank you, sir," I said as I paid the cab driver. "You are welcome," he nods as he collects the transport fare and drives off almost immediately. "Sister-in-law," Hendrix calls as he single-handedly carries almost all the grocery bags into the house. He doesn't let me carry almost anything, so I carry only a grocery bag containing carrots. “So sister-in-law," he calls. “Are we going to start cooking immediately?" he asks. “No, we are not," I say with a sigh, my tone drippi

    DEMETRIUSI am in an important press meeting with the board in my company.After the meeting, I went back to my office feeling very exhausted.Just then, a knock is heard on my door.A frown forms on my face. Who the hell is disturbing me after a meeting?!My employees know well not to disturb me after a meeting and whoever is knocking on the door is really looking for fire!I am ready to play the game, so I speak up with a snarl. "Come in!"Just then, the door opens gently and a woman walks in. She is holding a file in her hands as she approaches me like a humble lamb.I sneer, thinking she's desperate. My eyes travel from her head to her toe.She is putting on very heavy makeup and worst of all, a skimpy attire to my office!My gaze on her instantly darkens as I notice her dressing. Who the hell is she to dress like that in my office!This is an office.. my own office! And no one dared to treat it like it was some kind of inappropriate place!"Who the hell are you?" I growl."I..

    ELVIRA“ Wow!" I exclaim with awe as I stare at the special delicacies neatly arranged on the table. “ You are such a cool cook!" He exclaims with astonishment again. “ Thank you," I laugh as I shake my head. “ You are so dramatic, Hendrix." He scoffs. “ Dramatic?" He asks. “ Like..look at this delicacy on this counter and you are trying to tell me I should not be dramatic..if not over dramatic about this?!" “ You are such a clown!" I laugh as I smack him on his arm. “ Yeah..I guess that is my special talent," he says with a shrug as he stares at the food in front of him. “ Oh my..I am going to eat till my tummy bursts open!" I look at Hendrix with a raised brow, what nonsense is he talking about?! “ Hey! Hey!" I caution him. “ This food was specially prepared for Demetrius alone!” He purses his lips. " That is not fair! Why can't I have even a bite out of the meal?!” " Because it is not meant for you!” I say." But..but..please sister in-law! Just give me even if it is a bit

    ElviraI feel pity for Demetrius, whatever that might have made him change is probably bad.I take a deep breath, trying to steady my emotions. "Wow, he must have been through a lot.""Yes," Hendrix nods. "And whenever I try getting closer to him, he just drifts further away.""Poor guy," I sigh."Anyways, we better lay these delicious meals on the table before our almighty Demetrius returns," Hendrix jokes."Ah...you are right, I nearly forgot," I say and with the help of Hendrix, we both set up a table for one at the dining hall.Just as we are almost done, I hear a car drive into the compound.I immediately rush to the window to see who it is. Demetrius is back! And he is surprisingly early."Hendrix!" I yell. "Demetrius is back!" I inform."This early?" Hendrix asks, surprise laced in his voice."I'm as surprised as you," I laugh.Suddenly, Hendrix dashes over to my side, scaring the wit out of me."Sister in-law!" He calls, excitement laced in his voice."What is the matter, you

    ELVIRAThe notification that popped up on my phone made me feel broken and helpless.“Oh my God," I cry as I bury my face in my palm and literally cry my eyes out. I was not expecting this kind of news when I was in a happy mood with Demetrius.“What happened, Elvira?" Demetrius asks, but gets no response from me. I am too broken to reply to anyone.“I said, what happened?!" He asks again, this time his tone heightened above normal.He then stands up from where he was seated and crouches down to my height.“What is wrong?" He asks, his tone surprisingly soft.I look up to meet his gentle gaze with my teary eyes; I try to say something, but only more wails and sniffles come out of my mouth.I look down at my phone and then at Demetrius, and almost immediately, he grabs my phone and looks at the content that had upset me earlier.“What?" He mutters as he furrows his brows in confusion. "A birthday invitation?" He asks.I look up at him with tear-filled eyes and shake my head. It is not

    ELVIRA"Oh my God," I mutter as I sit down. My mind is racing with endless thoughts that are not the answer to my question.I take a deep breath, trying to steady my racing heart. "Calm down, Elvira, calm down," I close my eyes and mutter to myself and after some seconds, I begin to calm down.But suddenly, just as I calm down, I suddenly hear footsteps in the office and immediately, my eyes fly open with shock and fear.Standing in front of me is the almighty Demetrius, he looks at me with a slight frown on his face.I swallow hard and wriggle my butt on the chair with nervousness, is he mad to see me?!"What are you doing here?" His cold, deep voice suddenly rings out as he walks towards his seat."I..I..he.." I stutter, not knowing how to answer his question. At this point, I have lost my voice and I don't know what to say. I am not thinking straight right now, I am too scared to speak."Calm down now, Elvira," he says as he starts without sparing me a glance as he starts operating

"I'm not trying to pull your leg right now; I want to help you, so I'm being very serious.""Jesus!" I exclaim, much to my surprise, knowing his knees is like a huge relief to me. At least I know now Demetrius is a human being."Now, let's get baking, shall we?" Hendrix squeals, and I nod, excited to get this done.We then get baking seriously, our hands moving faster than our brains."We need to hurry, put in your best, sister-in-law," Hendrix says. "Bake it with love, okay?"I sneer; Hendrix is a clown. "I know," I laugh."Bake it with your heart! Your blood, your sweat! Your tears!" He says again with a dramatic tone."Yeah, I know…" I laugh. "I'm also going to add my period blood to the pie too, right?""That sounds like a brilliant idea, sister-in-law," he exclaims. "Now you are a genius!""I know," I smile.After a

    ELVIRA"Tell me, Hendrix, what did she do to him?!” I ask.“She… she..." Hendrix tries to say, but he pauses and shakes his head as he averts his gaze.“She did what?!" I ask as I shake him on the arm, my inquisitive side starting to kick in.“It's… it's a long story, sister-in-law,” Hendrix sighs. "But trust me when I say this, very soon you will find out about everything, and you won't be kept in the dark again.”I purse my lips into a sad pout, although I am not satisfied with Hendrix's answer, it gives me a little hope of finding out the truth someday, even if it is not now."Alright,” I nod. "But, what are we going to do about my giant crush on Demetrius?!” I ask, my frustration piquing.Hendrix winks at me with a teasing smile. "Tell me, sister-in-law, is it a giant crush, or do you really love him?” He asks. “Which is it?"“I...I... it..." I stutter, feeling shy and embarrassed. I can feel butterflies flutter in my stomach as I think about Demetrius, which makes me kind of exci

    ELVIRA“It's… it's about Demetrius,” I finally reply, and this time as I exhale deeply, I want to calm down my racing heart before saying anything.“About Demetrius?” Hendrix repeats as he furrows his brows with confusion. He suddenly becomes interested in what I am saying and shifts close to me, raising a concerned brow.“What about him, sister-in-law?" He asks with interest and worry. “What did that bastard do this time around?" he asks, gritting his teeth in anger as his fists form into a ball, as though he is out to knock all of Demetrius's teeth out.His actions are funny, and I let out a chuckle, shaking my head with amusement. Although I know he is trying to help, he is being funny.“Hey… hey…” I laugh, shaking my head with amusement. "Hold on, big tiger, Demetrius didn't hurt me," I explain.“He didn't?" He asks as his face flushes with embarrassment. “Oh..." he mutters as he bursts out laughing. “I thought he did something bad to you. I was literally ready to burst open his t

He asks."I've been a good boy lately, sorry you think?” He asks with a wink.I shake my head disapprovingly. "No, you haven't,” I reply. "You are an annoying leech who won't let me be! Ugh!”"I love you too, sister-in-law,” he pouts, and I smack him on his head.“Stop being goofy,” I roll my eyes."Tell me, please," he purses his lips into a pout. “Did you and Demetrius… you know… yesterday night?” he winks.I understand what he meant; Demetrius was so crazy!“Of course not!” I roll my eyes. "Nothing happened between Demetrius and me yesterday. Trust me,” I huff, folding my arms across my chest.“Oh…” he says with a sad pout. "That's so sad.”"Yeah, so leave me alone!" I warn.“Nah…

    ELVIRA“I am glad you are okay," Hendrix says as he gives out a light smile. I furrow my brows with confusion. Why is he sounding so cocky?“Okay…” I reply. "Me too.” "I am very happy you are getting along with Damien; I can see some changes in him, ones I haven't seen for a long time now," he says again, and I smile. “How do you mean?” I ask. "Well… I can see some changes in him. He is starting to loosen up to you, and he is no longer that grumpy and bitter all the time," he explains as both of us walk towards the chair and sit down. "Wow…" I mutter. “That... that is a lot." “No, no," he shakes his head. “I'm being very honest here, sister-in-law," Hendrix says. “I'm being very serious. You are doing a good job, and whatever you are doing, I advise you to keep it up." My cheeks flush at his words as a blush creeps up on my face; Hendrix sure knows how to say nice things. "Thank you,” I reply with a genuine smile. “But honestly, I'm not really doing much." “You are, sister-in

I drag myself up, although I am reluctant to start my day's activity.I sigh deeply as I walk towards the bathroom to have my bath and probably wash away my sorrows. After about thirty minutes, I finish taking my bath and preparing myself for the day.I then drag myself down to the dining hall to have my breakfast because my stomach is already grumbling with hunger.I walk down the hallway straight to the dining room, and once my feet step inside, I am met with two men's faces; one has his usual poker face on, and one has a jovial smile plastered on his face.“Sister-in-law!" Hendrix calls with a jovial smile as he signals for me to come over.“Good morning," I greet as I flash a brief smile before taking my seat near Demetrius. I tilt my head to meet Demetrius's gaze. “Good morning," I greet, and he nods slightly before shifting his gaze back to his

Instantly, I become alarmed and want to scream out with fear – where am I and what the hell is on top of me?Slowly, I peek down to meet a sleepy Demetrius; his hand is snaked around my waist, making it impossible for me to break free from his grip.I widen my eyes with surprise as I feel my heart flutter. This is the first time I have ever seen Demetrius sleep! And he looks so cute! I just feel like snuggling him and planting kisses on his face!A subconscious smile spreads across my face, my gaze not leaving his sleeping face. His eyelashes are so cute as they are closed, and his slightly opened mouth as he sleeps just seems to enhance his cuteness! He looks so cute while asleep, and it is impossible to believe that this is the same ruthless man when awake. This man is just so perfect in whatever he is
