Miranda entered a room and gasped as she realized it was a garden. In the castle, there was a garden. She was taken aback by the beauty of the flowers in the garden. She walked up to the swing in the middle of the yard and sat down. She had to admit that this was one of the most gorgeous areas of the castle.
Andrew walked in and she instantly got up as she heard footsteps.
"I had a feeling you'd show up here. Let's go somewhere, shall we?" He stated
" Where are we going?! " She enquired.
"Please don't bother asking me any questions, cupcake. Simply follow my instructions." He reminded her, and she muttered as she walked towards him, unsure of where he was leading her.
"Did you realize the castle has a zoo inside?! " He inquired. She looked at him in astonishment and scoffed.
" There can't be a zoo in the castle," says the narrator. "I mean, that's just not conceivable." She shook her head.
" You are correct, but Damien owns the zoo." "That's where he keeps his pet," He responded.
"What kind of pet does he have?" She enquired.
" You don't want to hear that because it will make you uneasy." He grinned.
" I don't have any fears. "Just let me know." She lied.
" It's a cobra," says Andrew. Miranda trembled as he responded, 'His pet is a big cobra.'
"A cobra?! What is the point of a cobra?! Isn't he scared of it? I mean, there are people that reside in this home. The bodyguards, the maids. A fucking cobra, to be precise. "How can a cobra be a pet?! " She screamed constantly, hesitant to enter further into the castle because she was afraid the snake might appear out of nowhere and consume her. Andrew laughed holding his chest.
" You're really adorable. Are you aware of this? "You look so fat," he continued, looking at her, and Miranda swears she detected a flash of something affectionate in those brown eyes.
" Thank you, but I'm not fat." She took a breath and blushed. She realized it was the first time they'd had a nice chat and she'd seen him laugh honestly.
" Damien enjoys acting like a king. He likes things to go his way, which is why my father placed him in command of the underground. He acquired a cobra as a pet since he thinks he has a cobra's personality. The king of all snakes is the cobra. He acts as if he is a king, and he expects everything around him to follow his orders. " Miranda took a deep breath as he spoke.
" How long has he had a cobra as a pet?! " She enquired.
" Since he was seven years old." Miranda gasped in surprise as he responded.
" Wasn't he terrified?" She screamed, terrified of snakes and oblivious to dogs.
"He wasn't, no. He called the cobra Don when he purchased it as a hatchling." He stated
"Oh, my goodness! Sorry to say, but your brother appears to be completely insane." Andrew laughed as she said it.
"Yes, I am aware. This family is full of weird individuals."
"So, how about you? Have you ever had a pet?" She enquired.
"Yes, I own one. I recently acquired a pet." He cocked his head and grinned.
" What is his name?! " She enquired.
"It's a female, not a male. Miranda's name is Miranda, but I refer to her as my cupcake "he added, a wicked grin on his face.
Her cheeks flushed. He was referring to her as his pet.
"You'll return to work the next day. As they exited the garden, he added, "I need to go somewhere." Damien and Nathan were dressed in black at the bottom of the stairs, and she realized Andrew was also dressed in black. 'What were they up to?!' She was lost in thought, but she didn't dare to say anything.
"Make sure you're a good girl," he said as he kissed her on the lips. Before leaving to meet his brothers, he patted her on the head. She stood there watching them go out of the castle and into the compound's large garage, where more men clad in black were wearing a black eyeglasses, They were the bodyguards, she noted. After the three brothers had boarded the Toyota Jeep, they boarded as well. Her brows were wrinkled.
Where could they possibly be going with so many bodyguards?! Is it possible that they're participating in some criminal activities?!
She stood there watching the cars drive out of the complex until they were no longer visible. In the huge castle, she felt completely alone. She admired the garage, which was loaded with a variety of high-end automobiles.
She let out a sigh. What in the world had she gotten herself into? She decided to have a look around the pool. Then she recalled that this home had a fucking cobra in it?
In terror, she shrinks. Because the home employees were also present, she understood she shouldn't be afraid. She proceeded along the halls and came upon a huge painting of a man who looked just like the three brothers. Miranda mistook him for their father, Gerald Templeton, since he appeared to be elderly.
She frowned. What had happened to their mother that she hadn't heard about?! She doesn't appear to exist. Is she still alive? What happened to her?! Why isn't her name on the Templetons' list?!
She had a lot of questions, but she didn't know the answers to any of them.
So she decided to just return to the chamber where Andrew had been dragged earlier, despite the fact that she had no idea how to get there. She grumbled as she realized she was confined in this corridor until Andrew returned.
She began peering through each door in the corridor until she came face to face with the most gorgeous room she had ever seen as she peered into a specific large door.
Golden chandeliers and marble brown tables filled the space. A huge painting of a woman seated like a queen in the most beautiful brown robe she had ever seen hung on the wall. Despite the fact that the room's walls were painted in brown, the bed was likewise created in that color. Brown appears to be the woman's preferred color.
Miranda was reminded of the three brothers by her deep brown eyes, although she bore no remarkable likeness to them.
She had no idea who she was.
She walked back to where she had seen a Gerald Templeton painting after opening the door and stepping out of the room.
She sat down on the red carpet, but something attracted her eye, so she got up and tried with all her might to remove the portrait from the wall, but she twisted her ankle, and the glass portrait fell to the carpet and broke a little. She chewed her lower lip. She'd gotten herself into a lot of trouble. Who told her she needed to get rid of the portrait?! What was with her being so clumsy?!
She looked up and her gaze was drawn to another photo, this time of a younger Gerald Templeton dressed in a white suit. It appeared to be his wedding portrait with his wife, but she was shocked to discover the other half was ripped. That's weird!
Why would the other half of his wife's photograph be ripped?!
She looked at it for a long time, until a voice interrupted her thoughts.
"What are you doing in this place?! You're not supposed to be in this area of the castle!!"
To be continued...

WARNING: Mature contents. 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
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
