Miranda recoiled in terror as she gazed at the lady who had scared her. She had black hair and dark eyes, and she was quite attractive and refined, yet her tone was more authoritative.
"How did you end up here?! " She screamed
" I got lost and decided to have a seat here." She responded.
" What in the world did you do to the painting?! " She snarled and knelt down to examine it.
"Please excuse me. Who are you?!" Miranda inquired as she stared at the lady with her arms folded.
"Emily is my name. What exactly were you doing in this section of the castle?!" She enquired.
"I got lost. I was just wondering about the castle when I got lost." Miranda inquired as to the lady's status within the Templetons. Is she one of the brothers' wives? It isn't possible. None of the brothers appear to be married, and Damien appears to despise women, but why?! She couldn't explain herself; all she could do was think.
Emily smiled as she observed her bewildered expression while gazing at her.
" I'm Andrew's cousin. "I'm sure you're going to be his next target, I meant sweetheart." She gave a kind grin.
Miranda wondered what she meant by the next target.
" We're not dating, but he's pressuring me to be his, which I don't want." She spoke to herself with sincerity.
" I'm familiar with my cousins. Andrew, in particular, is a knucklehead. He prefers subservient ladies, whereas Damien is a king in his own way, constantly wanting things to go his way, Nathan can use his attractiveness to persuade everyone to give him what he wants. With a smile on his face, " she explained.
The Templetons' brothers appear to be in charge of themselves. They act as if they are rulers.
" They like having their way with everything and everyone. They know what they're doing." Miranda pondered.
"Let's get this portrait up before they show up and discover it's broken.' Emily had intruded in her thoughts.
"How come you're assisting me?! " She enquired.
" Because I like you, and I'm not a big fan of strangers." As they jointly raised the massive picture, she answered.
" You appear to be pleasant. " Miranda remarked
" I'm not even close to being polite, my darling. "I'd like to think I'm pleasant, but I'm not kind." She guffawed at the irony of her own words.
" I'm really sorry I shattered this portrait. " Miranda bit her lower lip, her eyes shining with earnestness.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. My uncle is currently out of the country, so you're safe for the time being." She responded.
"Is that your uncle?" Miranda was ecstatic.
" Gerald Templeton is my uncle, my mother's brother, but because my parents are deceased, he adopted me as a family member." She said once they had completed the task of rehanging the portrait on the wall.
" My heartfelt condolences on your parents' passing. " Miranda grumbled.
"Yes, I agree. So you don't get lost and ruin something else, I'll show you the route back and possibly tour you around the castle." She teased, and they both laughed as they exited the corridor.
Miranda had a thought, and she decided to inquire, "What about your uncle's wife?! What happened to her?! Surprisingly, no one has mentioned her. Emily's back tightened as she asked.
"You should be cautious about the questions you ask. Because you're still an outsider, you should recognize your place in this house." Miranda just gazed at her in disbelief when she yelled. What went wrong with her?! She had only posed a straightforward question.
Her tone turned enraged. She calmed down when she noticed Miranda's perplexed expression.
"I'm sorry for yelling at you, but please don't ask that question again, even to my cousin. You should avoid that area of the castle as well. You can take the elevator or the stairs to go to your room, but my cousins prefer to take the steps." She stated that with a smile on her face.
" You scared the living daylights out of me." Miranda said, "What do you mean an elevator exists?! In the castle, no less!" Her cheeks flushed.
She had opted to sit on the bed and wait for Andrew after Emily had taken her to the room Andrew had pulled her into through the elevator. She waited for hours until it was late, and when it became clear that he wasn't going to return, she fell asleep.
He was sitting on a couch in the room when she awoke, staring at her with a glass of whiskey in his right hand. He was still dressed in the black turtleneck shirt he wore the day before. She was curious as to when he returned from his trip.
Andrew said, "Get on the table." He had hauled her to the office as soon as she got up in the morning. He didn't literally drag her, but he did take her to the office, and now they're here.
She promptly obeyed and sat down at the table.
" Spread your thighs now." He yelled, causing her to quiver in terror. He snatched her and yanked her legs wide open.
He yanked her skirt down and pushed her underwear out of the way. He grinned and poked her with his finger.
She exclaimed, clutching his shirt.
" Call me master," he said, putting another finger in his mouth.
" M...master," she whispered as she bit her lower lip at the feeling.
" Again," he hissed, his movement inside her quickening.
" Master," he says. She was on the verge of erupting with whimpering. With irregular cries from Miranda's lip and Andrew's fingers clamped in her, the air in the office grew unbearably hot.
Because she was so high, she thrust her head backwards and grabbed a full sheet of his shirt.
" You're quite attractive." He moaned loudly.
She squeaked, "Yes s...master."
He stepped up and pushed his member into her, then began slamming into her with his two hands on her neck. When she circled her legs around his torso, loving the sensation of him going in and out of her, she had no idea.
As he kissed her, he murmured into her lips, still moving in her. He was in her for 30 minutes before exploding his first orgasm, while she was on her fifth. They were saturated in their own perspiration, which was tinged with delight.
He unlocked his drawer and zipped up his pants before handing her a pill and a bottle of water.
"What are these pills?! " she wondered as she glanced at them, perplexed. She enquired.
"Pills for birth control. Now is the time to take them." He responded, and she paused before swallowing the tablet and downing a large glass of water.
"Put on some clothes. We have a board meeting to attend."
To be continued...
As he walked on the carefully expensive tiles, his expensive black leather shoe reverberated, the powerful aroma of his perfume captivating everyone in the boardroom, and the room grew frigid as he stepped in. Miranda trailed behind him, clutching some files in her hands as she exclaimed over the size of the boardroom, which had everyone on their feet in a show of respect for his presence.Andrew proceeded to his seat on the single portion in the center with authority and sat down comfortably. Miranda sat hesitantly in the chair beside him after he ushered her to do the same. She could feel the other women in the room staring at her, and she couldn't figure out why! Before they sat down, everyone, including the board members, waited for him to take his seat." Let's get this meeting started," says Andrew. They all opened
Miranda couldn't sit comfortably in the car and couldn't appreciate the cool temperature because of her bad butt. Her butt hurt so severely that she kept shifting about in her seat, unable to rest her butt on the car seat.The journey was long; they were headed to one of Las Vegas's largest casinos, and Andrew appeared to be in a good mood about gambling, but Miranda questioned why he had brought her along. Didn't he have any fear of nasty guys?! She was terrified since Claudia had told her a lot of negative things about casinos and she had never visited one. The car came to a halt, and the chauffeur came down to open Andrew's door.They exited the car. Miranda was taken aback when she saw a hotel because she had assumed they were heading to a casino. As he proceeded towards the building, Andrew smirked at her and adjusted the
He carried her up the stairs into the same room when they entered the castle. When they walked in, the maids greeted them with a worried expression, as if they didn't understand why one of their bosses was upset. They knew the lady was to blame, but who is she to him in the first place?! One of his whores, perhaps. The majority of them snorted at her since they had a secret crush for Andrew. Maybe their boss was upset because she wasn't very good in bed.Andrew forced her into the bed after opening the door."'Did those men touch you?!' Miranda flinched as he roared." No, they didn't," She responded.'I told you not to leave my side,' " Why don't you pay attention to what I'm saying?!"
Miranda abruptly got up from her bed, tugging on a pair of shorts and a crop blouse, when she awoke to the brilliant sunlight coming through the Italian window. She didn't have any clothes to wear in the castle, and Andrew has yet to procure one for her. Claudia's number was not available when she took up her phone to call her. 'Perhaps she's at work,' she reasoned.After cleaning her teeth, she went downstairs to fetch something to eat for breakfast. Fortunately, she had a new brush in the bathroom, which she utilized.When she arrived at the table, she was surprised to discover Emily alone at the table. What happened to the brothers?!"Good morning," she said, and Emily smiled." How was yo
The days sped by because Miranda was busy at work and in the palace. She wanted to go to her house, but Emily informed her that Andrew had called and told her not to leave the castle or the office. She felt as if she were being held hostage. Despite having spoken with Claudia over the phone, she was desperate to meet Claudia and Aaron.She planned to approach Andrew for her salary when he returned; she knew it was too soon to ask, but she really needed the money to pay Aaron's school fees, and she hoped he would give her. The castle felt so empty without the three brothers. Miranda was overcome with longing for Andrew.She'll be honest, she missed his touch, hearing his voice, and seeing his face. Even though they only met two weeks ago and had a series of sex, she enjoys having him around her.
Miranda blushed because the air in the car was so unpleasant for her. She couldn't help but recollect what had transpired between her and Andrew after he returned from his trip.Miranda locked her gaze on Andrew, who was frantically tapping his phone. Why does he constantly press his phone whenever they're in the car?! She took her phone from her purse to take her mind off the boredom."Can you tell me what type of phone you're using?! " He inquired, disgusted, as he glanced at Miranda's button phone." It's a Nokia, the most recent model." She furrowed her brows." I don't like you using the phone. It's not something you should utilize. The phone is only for commoners" She frowned as he yell
Miranda couldn't stay in the house much longer because Andrew was getting anxious and had stated that they wanted to get somewhere, so she said her goodbyes to Claudia and Aaron and promised to phone Claudia when she arrived at the castle. Miranda had chatted with Claudia about the castle, the casino, the three brothers, the portraits she had broken, and even the cobra, which had also made Claudia afraid that there was a cobra in the castle, but she hadn't told her about her encounter with the classy woman at the mall or what the Templetons were keeping hidden from her.Miranda, still dazed, inquired, "Where are we going?!?"Andrew did not respond to her query; instead, he merely stated that she would find out when they arrived. Finally, she remained silent throughout the journey, not looking at Andrew since she was preoc
The following day.Miranda arrived at the office in the morning and immediately got to work on her tasks. She took out her clips and began taping her notes to the wall. She had awoken late this morning to discover Andrew had gone to work and left her at home. She was told she was at a board meeting when she arrived at work. She didn't want to bother him, so she started making notes for his itinerary because they were going on a trip the next day.The meeting came to an end after a few minutes. She stepped into the boardroom, reaching out to hang the next project's album, and as her arm began to ache. When she felt arms wrap her waist, she knew it was only Andrew who could accomplish it, so she wasn't startled." I had a great view of your ass!" She co
Just after terminating one of Andrew's enemies, Damien made his way to a club nearby to settle his scores. Getting inside after passing by the club bouncers at the door, he walked in with his guards and he was welcomed by the sound of very loud music, sweaty people were almost everywhere grinding their bodies together. Everyone around looked almost wasted, only few weren't and most of them were business men and Mafias who came to the club to have a good time and to get some sluts on their bed for tonight. This club was known for its violence. Every man gets to bid on a woman and the highest bidder gets to punish her thoroughly, by using different kinds of whips, libidos, neck collars and so on, on them. Almost everywhere looked crowded and only a few got to notice the arrival of the boss. He casually walked to the bar, as he raised his left hand to dismiss his guards, he could handle himself, especially now that he was in his club. Of course, he was the owner of this club and who wou
Three years later...Sitting upon a chair, a woman winced as she felt her hair being tugged in different directions. There were enough makeup supplies that could last a lifetime.Stylists scrambled around in the room, all of whom were rushing to get the beautiful woman in the white dress and ready.Miranda waited anxiously, she was so excited that she was going to make her vows to the man she loved. A lot of things had happened after the death of Victor, Damien made sure his body was burnt before disposing of the ashes while Andrew was seriously injured and had to stay in the hospital for proper care for two months. Life has been tough but as long as they have each other no one can break them apart, not even Amelia.
Nathan hid behind one of the garage's cars, hoping that Amelia wouldn't notice him. She walked rapidly towards her car, opened the door, started the engine, and drove backwards out of the garage, looking terrified.Nathan waited until her car was out of sight before opening the driver's door and getting into his car, ready to pursue Amelia. He prayed their strategy would work and Amelia wouldn't notice he was following her.Amelia, unbeknownst to him, has her own intentions.***Miranda was lying on her bed, unable to sleep. Her eyes were heavy, but no matter how hard she tried, sleep eluded her. She grew ignorant of her surroundings after a few minutes of staring blankly at the ceiling, so engrossed in her thoughts
Amelia sat in the room as she didn't know where Andrew could have gone early in the morning. Could it be he had known that she wasn't the real Miranda? It couldn't be, even if he was to know but not now, not today that they were about to get married. She needs to play her cards right so he wouldn't suspect or get any trace that she wasn't Miranda. Anyway, she should get ready for their wedding.She stood up from the bed, walking towards her wardrobe to pick up the dress she was going to wear.Finally, after waiting for years, Andrew was going to be hers.***Miranda woke up and found herself lying on a bed. She was inside a room, which was painted in all white and had only one door. Where was thi
Amelia walked out of the room with Victor while his guards trailed them as they walked into his study. She didn't know why she didn't trust Victor yet, after what happened in the ball the other day, Amelia had been so desperate for the attention of Andrew." You have to stick to our plan, Victor. " She began as he took his seat." What plan? " Victor laughed which made Amelia frown deeply." You promised me not to cause harm on Andrew if I accept to be your accomplice. In exchange for giving you what you want, you will give me Andrew unharmed. " She said" So?! I told you I promised why do you still seem worried " he smirked." Do not play gam
Miranda looked at the man like he was talking gibberish but seeing the sincerity on his face, she almost believed then she remembered Andrew's words when he had told her that when he comes back he was going to tell her the truth. Could this be the truth?!" I don't believe you, " Miranda admitted. For years she had grown up knowing that she doesn't have any paternal family. When she was still in the orphanage, sometimes she hoped her mother would come visit her but it never happened. Sometimes children in the orphanage who also had the same story as hers, their mother who abandoned them, come back looking for their child to take them. Now that she's old enough to take care of herself, a man who has been stalking her for weeks and also abducted her and now he is saying he is her uncle. How does she expect her to believe him?
Miranda's head was covered with a hood, her hands were tied together with a rope. As the van kept on moving on the bumping roads, she couldn't help but feel goosebumps on her skin and a heavy weight on her chest knowing something awful was about to happen. Where are these men taking her to? Her head was covered to prevent her from seeing or getting to know the directions the van was going to, she felt nauseous knowing that she and her baby weren't safe in the hands of these men.The van stopped which made her flinch, the men gently dragged her out of the van by her arm and they removed the hood from her head. Miranda slowly opened her eyes to adjust to the sunlight only for her to be speechless at the sight before her,Standing tall in all its full glory was a villa, there were men on each side of the entran
She became agitated after a few minutes of stillness with no one willing to answer her query. Emily got to her feet and moved over to her, a sad expression on her lips."What's the matter, Emily? Why isn't anyone responding to me?!""Miranda, all you have to do now is relax. I'd like to share something with you."" Just spill it out already!! " Miranda exclaimed angrily.Emily groaned, her worried expression showing that she didn't know how to break the awful news to her or how she would respond." The cops informed us that Andrew's jet had been in an accident, and... " She came to a halt when she noticed Miranda was going to cry.
Friday night.Two days passed with Andrew and Miranda going for couple outings, having spectacular fun with each other. Andrew had never felt so happy and free in his life before but he felt like that with those amazing two days with his new found love, Miranda.The restaurant appeared to be decorated in a passionate and romantic French style, which had candlelight placed on each table as other couples were in the restaurant. Andrew and Miranda walked in like a normal couple as they were taken to one of the tables in a restaurant Andrew wanted to make tonight, one of Miranda's memorable days with him.They sat down on their seats but before that, Andrew played the role of a gentleman by pulling out her chair for her to sit down which surprised Miranda and also had her
