CHAPTER 2
Elizabeth's POV
I woke up and warmth was surrounding me.
Warmth.
A word I thought I would never use when I woke up in my apa-
Uh-oh.
I'm not at home.
The place I was laying on was really soft. And my couch has never been soft.
I felt warm and safe and in the past years I have felt neither of those feelings.
And then... I remembered.
Yesterday at the cafe... those men... sitting in a car... and that's all I remember.
Wait if sitting in a car is the last thing I remember then how did I end up in...
...a bed???
What the...
And then I felt movements.
Beside me.
In the bed.
Two strong arms wrapped around me and pulled me into something hard and VERY warm.
I guess it was someone's chest.
Someone's chest.
Ummm...
A nose was put into my neck and the person behind me inhaled and exhaled slowly.
I think that person is asleep but I'm too scared to look.
I don't even want to know who I'm in the same bed with.
I tried to get out of that someone's grasp but that someone held on tighter.
I was about to try again but...
"Where you going, baby girl?"
A very husky and sleepy voice and I stiffened instantly.
I remember that voice.
It belongs to Alexander Knight which means that... I'm...... in the same bed with...... the most feared mafia boss......... ever.
I gulped.
"Don't make daddy ask twice, little girl."
"S-sorry da-"
Oh my gosh.
Was I actually about to call him...
Elizabeth you need to GET YOURSELF TOGETHER.
My cheeks burned with embarrassment.
I was lucky the room was dark so that he couldn't see my flaming cheeks.
"Well, little one? You going to answer daddy why you woke him up that early?"
"I-I"
Come on Lizzy think of something!
"I wanted to go to the b-bathroom."
"Are you lying to daddy, baby girl?"
"N-no..."
"No what?"
"N-no d-daddy..."
"Good girl. You can go to the bathroom but leave the door open."
"Y-yes daddy."
I got out of the warm bed and almost ran into the bathroom. I was about to close the door but then remembered what he said. I didn't want to make him angry so I left it open.
I did my business and washed my hands.
I looked in the mirror above the sink and just stared at myself.
Get a grip, Liz! You need to stop the damn stuttering.
I slowly walked back into the bedroom where Mr.Knight was laying on the bed staring at me.
"Come here baby girl and let's go back to sleep."
I speed-walked to the bed because he sounded tired and I didn't want to anger him.
I climbed on the bed and laid down under the silky sheets as far away from him as possible.
But it didn't really work because he let out a growl like sound and pulled me to his chest and wrapped his arms tightly around me so I had no choice but to try and relax and get some sleep.

*some time later*
(Still Elisabeth's POV)
I woke up to someone playing with my hair and whispering in my ear.
"It's time to wake up little one, daddy has work to do."
I just moaned and tried to go back to sleep.
"Come on now, baby girl. Don't test daddy's patience."
I sleepily opened my eyes and was instantly met with two ice blue ones.
My eyes widened and I was instantly awake.
"You can go and take a shower, I'll go and get you some clothes and then we'll get breakfast and go to my office, okay?"
"Okay daddy."
The corners of his mouth twitched upwards and he kissed my forehead.
"Good girl."
He got up and out of bed and that's when I noticed that he was only in his boxers.
I blushed and hid under the covers.
I could practically hear his smirk when he said: "Relax baby, here’s nothing that you won't see soon."
I stilled and stopped breathing when I heard that.
What did he mean by that?
I stayed under the covers until I heard the door open and close, only then did I dare to come out.
I walked to the bathroom and closed and locked the door behind me.
Just in case.
I took a quick shower. It didn't take more than ten minutes and I was standing in the middle of the bathroom with a towel around my body.
To get clothes I would need to go into the bedroom but I didn't know if HE was there or not.
I finally mustered up the courage and unlocked the door.
Poking my head out from behind the door and looking around the room, he wasn't seen anywhere so I hurriedly ran to the bed where there was a pile of clothes on, took them and ran back into the bathroom.
I put the clothes on and when done, I looked into the mirror.
Oh my lord, what am I wearing???
I look like a five year old!
But I kinda like it. It's nice and comfy but it shows my legs.
I was wearing a white pleated skirt and a comfy pale pink sweater that nearly covered my arms. White sneakers were adorning my feet and I was left wondering why they fit me so well.
I went outside the bathroom to see that he stood there dressed in a black suit with black shiny dress shoes.
"How do I look?"
He raised an eyebrow at me.
Ummmm...
Oh.
"How do I look, daddy?"
"You look ravishing baby, now let's go and eat some breakfast."
He put an arm around my waist and we walked out of the room.
The house we were in looked really big. So many halls and stairs and rooms that I would surely get lost in here if by myself.
We took so many turns that it made my head spin.
Then we went down some stairs and more some stairs and MORE some stairs.
Gosh how do they walk up and down these stairs on daily basis??
I was nearly breathless when we reached the first floor.
He noticed and carried me bridal-style while I put my hands around his neck so that I won't fall down.
We ended up in a kitchen.
Where I saw two familiar looking faces…
