"A hot lust mouth against his skin, sliding over to his neck, her finger in his hair, her smallfoot moving up his right calf, eliciting a shiver, as it brushed the sensitive skin behind his knee." Jeff gasped awake as the wonderful dream abruptly ended and the harsh unfair truth of his reality took its place. "How could he dream of her?" The Castelluci's are rivals, opposers of The Kincades. An heirloom is the price and Kiah, a daughter loyal to her father, is sent to retrieve it from the Kincades territory. But with a shift in the plans of destiny, she starts to get entangled with her emotions on a man, Alexei Kincade. A man whose ideals are obscure and quite the dream of ladies. Now the path starts to retain fog, her vision and goals become hazy in the battle between the heart and mind. Love or Duty?
View MoreTHREE DAYS LATER....Alexei arrived at the office before seven. The halls were dark and quiet as he moved up with the lift. He strode from the lift and walked into his office.Opening the door, he walked across the antique rug and set his laptop bag on the large wooden desk. He settled at his desk, firing up his computer and immediately sent an email to his assistant, Gavin, that he would be at the warehouse later to care of matters there. with this, he included a note that this was a confidential matter which no one must know about.Gavin wouldn't be in until eight, but he had a corporate smartphone. Alexei was certain he'd have everything handled before he arrived.That done, he turned to the steaming hot cup of coffee and the bagel he picked up on his way in. The coffee shop was close to the office and was always open well before most people stumbled into BKS for the day.Alexei spread cream cheese on his toasted bagel as he watched his inbox fill with new messages. Most were unimp
Kiah stared at Lisa as she was being dragged away by the police. Unbelievable! "So Lisa was also a spy?" Kiah thought to herself."She was caught this morning trying to open the safe in Tia Kincade's room... Poor lisa, no-one could believe she was a spy though she acted weird at times." Maria remarked. "who caught her?" kiah asked maria."it's that crazy Adrianna." maria frowned as she replied. "what do you mean crazy?" Maria hurriedly covered kiah's mouth checking around for anyone nearby. "You didn't hear this from me" maria said giving kiah a stern look. Kiah nodded and leaned to hear what she had to say."Rumours has been going around that she was put in a drug rehabilitation clinic to get over her addiction and..." Just before maria could continue, head maid Carly requested for the attentions of all the maids in the kitchen.~~~~~~~~~Head maid Carly was breathing hard, the bossom of her proper gray uniform rising and falling in the most interesting fashion. Sh
Jeff dressed for work, putting on a black suit with the dark colour matching his looks. He pulled out his chair to sit. Kiah was chosen permanently to be part of the maids who will attend to the meal of the kincades.On the table was fried rice with water chestnuts and minestrone soup with soufflé also mixed grills of mushroom bacon and dates which were for Alexei. He eats dates everyday in the morning and evening. "Let's eat" He announced and the maids moved to serve them. Kiah went to Alvin and served his food.He waved a smile at her but kiah pretended like she didn't see. She went back to her position to stand while they finished their meal. Kiah noticed how Louis Kincade rubbed the maid who served him. Rosita blushed at his touch and kiah knew she was the only one who saw this and wondered what was between them.After the meal, they all went for their daily business while kiah kept an eye on Rosita. She noticed rosita going out of the kitchen and she decided to follow her.Lo
A light clear voice came from the hacienda garden. It was sweet and soothing. Alvin paused, leaning against the broad trunk of a Spanish oak to light a thin cigarette. Smoke curled up from the brown tip stinging his eyes, rich and aromatic. He inhaled, squinting against the smoke.When the voice ceased singing, he dropped the cigarillo to the path and ground it beneath his heel."Hi" he said softly startling the singer who swung around, half-rising from the iron bench with her right hand on her left wrist."Ah!" Kiah said looking flustered. The pale hair around her face fell into her eyes as she stood up.I didn't know you were there, I'll head back inside now. She turned to go but Alvin grabbed her left hand and seeing this, she pulled away almost immediately."I'm sorry, did I hurt you?" He asked in a concerned tone.No, no, don't worry. It's nothing.He pulled out a tube of ointment at his back pocket. "Sit, let me apply it, he gestured to the bench. They both
(THE KINCADE MANSION)Kiah frowned slightly as she looked up at the gigantic gate of the Kincades. A huge man appeared staring at her in stunned silence and his face went pale beneath skin burned dark by exposure to the sun."Head maid Carly had notified me about your coming. Come inside, let me take you to her" He said opening the gate for her to enter.Kiah nodded at him as she entered through the gate. As they were going, she saw a fountain with sprayed water and tiny fishes inside. Shifting her focus back to the man, he took her to the kitchen in the main house.There were lot of busy maids in the kitchen doing one chore or the other. Nobody looked up when the guard took her in. They were all engrossed in their job. A middle-aged woman walked towards them wearing a blue knee gown with an apron on top of the dress. "What is your name?" She asked kiah sparing a glance at her body."My name is Kimberly Rogers", Kiah said. "Hmmmm". She turned back and called Maria, one of the maids.
(KIAH'S ROOM)Silence echoed in the room as thoughts buzzed across her mind as she laid still on the bed. She was just about to drift off when a knock landed on her door. Don Luis had summoned her— Brock had come to say a few minutes earlier and it was important, so she must see him before she steps out. The tone of the message did not bode well and kiah was starting to feel uneasy. Everything had seemed to go wrong lately.She immediately slipped into her trousers and adjusted herself before going out of the room.Breathless when she reached the study door, kiah paused in the hall outside to compose herself. She knocked on the door, opened and slid inside. "Shut the door, what I have to say to you is private". The voice in the room ordered."You sent for me""Yes, I did" He motioned her inside. It sounded serious... Her father rarely used this grave tone with her. Did he know? Did she make a mistake? No, that's ridiculous.After all, she is a grown woman now and hardly a child
