Chapter 9: Chapter 9

I sighed as I walked into the kitchen. So, she was out of the floor now, but her head buried into the refrigerator as she slept. Is she such a deep sleeper? I walked to her and pulled her back roughly, she fell back on my body, her stupid colored hair bouncing around messily. I cursed under my breath and scooped her into my arms, she smelt nice, though.

'Put me down, I haven't gotten a drink of water yet.' She murmured.

'Hold on,' I dropped her on the kitchen island and walked to the refrigerator again, took out a bottle of water and went back to her. 'Here, drink,' I slapped the bottle in her hand. She put it to her lips, drank half, and poured the rest on her head. 'What are you doing?'

'What am I…' She opened her eyes and sighed. 'How did I get here?'

'I don't know,'

'Sorry if I disturbed you,' she sighed again and jumped down from the island. I took my time to observe what she was wearing, a black crop top that showed me how beautiful her stomach area is, the beautiful ivory flat stomach with a shiny blue belly ring. She wore black shorts too, loose ones that really didn't do anything in hiding her hips and long slender legs. I ran my eyes along her hands, beautiful slender fingers and then her beautiful long neck.

She's actually kind of pretty, why didn't I see that before… Oh, her mouth blinded me. She will be gorgeous if she's mute for the rest of her life. 'Goodnight,' she walked to the door, giving me a nice view of her alluring ass.

'You are not going to last here,' I said out of a sudden, my eyes still strained on her ass. She halted, turned around and smiled lightly, a charming one that almost made it seem like my heart skipped. Her innocent face is annoying.

'I last here, wasn't planning to.' Damn! That voice is heart melting.

'You will speak to me with respect…'

'I speak the way I want,' she cut in. I walked fast to her and clenched her chin roughly. She tried to shake me off, but since when have anyone succeed in that? 'Will you let go of me!'

'Listen here, pruttana, you will not disrespect me in my own house, you will never act like you control me or else I will pull a bullet into your pretty friend, is that clear?' Why not threaten her instead? She doesn't fear death, she's stubborn.

'Let go of me,'

'Is that clear?!' She whimpered and nodded. 'You say what?'

'Yes, sir,' I pushed her face away, making her stagger back.

'Now, get out of my kitchen,'

'Yeah, whatever.'

'Scusi?' I asked in a threatening tone.

'Nothing,' she scoffed, I ignored that.

'Good, you can go,' she didn't move, just kept looking at me… Is she looking me straight in the eyes? Huh? 'Did I stutter when I spoke?'

'You have a problem, go screw your nuts back in, psycho,' she said and ran out before I got to her. I smiled, I smiled?

Cookie's standpoint

When he grabbed my chin roughly, I felt something jolt through my system, something I don't ever want to stop feeling. My inner bitch purred really loudly in my head. 'Listen here, pruttana, you will not disrespect me in my own house, you will never act like you control me or else I will pull a bullet into your pretty friend, is that clear?' Wow, it's getting hot in here. Instead of me to feel threaten by his words, I found it a total turn on. I was insane not loathing his touch or the fact that he called me a bitch; pruttana is an offensive word, I could feel my heartbeat between my legs, crazy.

'Let go of me,' I managed to speak. I shouldn't be thinking about this! I shouldn't be thinking about sex while speaking to the enemy, what is wrong with me? Now I get it, I haven't gotten laid enough, I hadn't gotten laid even before I step my feet in Italy. I have flirted, had romance; cheeky foreplay with some boys, but never let it extend. I should have just gotten laid.

But it has never bothered you, why is it bothering you now?… My subconscious asked, I could almost feel her smirk.

'Is that clear?' He asked again, his authoritative tone didn't affect me the way it should, it was making me clench instead. Damn! I love sexy, authoritative men. And I hadn't met one since forever. I whimpered at my useless thought and nodded. 'You say what?'

'Yes, sir,' I said, trying hard to keep the purr swallowed in. He pushed my face away, making me stagger back and reminding me why I should consider him an enemy.

'Now get out of my kitchen,'

'Yeah, whatever.' I couldn't help the witty remark.

'Scusi?' He asked in a threatening tone.

'Nothing,' I scoffed, I wasn't going to leave without leaving the last words, I won't be able to sleep.

'Good, you can go,' I didn't move, just kept looking at him straight into his green cat eyes; the thin line in his cat iris was gold, shiny gold, beautiful lashes! 'Did I stutter when I spoke?'

'You have a problem, go screw your nuts back in, psycho,' I said and ran just in case he decides to shoot me, no one is here to save me.

I very much still love my wonderful life.

Marilyn's standpoint (Ursula)

I punched in the password for the sixth time, the words on the screen was glowing red, "Access denied!" I growled and scratched my head, Carlos and River were watching me intensely. Their orders were to kill me if I fail to achieve anything today. It was late already, almost midnight, and that was my deadline.

'Think, Marilyn, think,' I said, hitting my head. I stood up, they shifted immediately, making me gulp. 'Calm down, I just need to think.'

'How?'

'Is there a bathroom in here? I really haven't used one since,' River pointed to the door I was banned from. I blushed and walked fast, in less than hours, I was crushing hard on him. Carlos had made a few passes here and there, but he wasn't the one I was attracted to, he's too tall and scary, but River is just my kind of guy.

I turned on the shower and duck my head under it, I shuddered as the ice water rained on my head. I pushed my hands on the wall and sighed with pleasure, just think about what those hands will do to me… Marilyn, focus!

'Focus,' I muttered. Something popped into my head, I turned off the shower and ran out immediately. I plopped myself down on the chair and punched in the password that came into my head. "Access granted!". 'Yes!' I exclaimed and fist bump the air.

'Excellent, Marilyn,' Carlos said from behind me, his breath fanning my ear and neck. Like I had done the other times, I shifted away, pretending I want to look into what I was doing. I activated the system and hacked into the main firewall, set a timer too. I put in the flash drive and started the download into the drive, I smiled at River, who smiled back.

'You are free now, you can go to your room and sleep now, I will handle it from here.' He spoke softly.

'Ame would be pleased with this achievement,' Carlos sneered, looking from me to him. 'I will turn off the system after…'

'No, I have to shut it down myself and return it back to it original setting, so he won't suspect.' I insisted, the download took an hour, Carlos had to leave first. After everything was thoroughly checked, we shut down the large IT room, like a freaking computer science lab. River led me back to my room, we walked in silence, I should be mad at him for hitting me back then.

'I'm sorry,' he finally said. I looked at him under my lashes. 'For hitting you that day, it was anger rush.'

'Anger towards…?'

'I got beaten up by a seven years old, I felt like shit.' He said sadly. I smiled and nudged him.

'Forgiven,' I said grinningly, he chuckled and ran his sexy finger through his hair. 'So, will I move to the main house now?'

'He hates seeing a property of Lucius, it will do you good to remain out of sight.' I stopped walking at my door and hissed.

'Let's get this info establish between us,' I turned and hit his chest. 'I belong to no one because I am not a freaking piece of material…'

'You belong to Ame now, you are already a property.' My hand moved on it own, I gave him a hard slap, one loud enough to vibrate through the hall.

'Fucked up jinxed man, I pray you get bullet down.' I opened my door, walked in and slammed the door shut.

Crush dead.
