1080 Words
Willbert placed the weapon back into his
pocket, and I let out a sigh of relief.I
needed to be careful with words right
now cause of that little monster in his
pocket. I walked behind him quietly so
my steps would not be heard, as I
glanced at his pocket from time to time.
He paused in his steps as we were
about to reach the door, i wondered why
he stopped. No he didn't change his
mind did he? I can't stay in this room
one more minute, not after what I heard.
He turned around sizing me with his
eyes and I met his gaze, damn right
now.
"Go get changed Rose, there's no way
were going out in that!'" He said. I
looked at my outfit quizzically, then I
realized I was still in my pajamas. "You
have five minutes!" He ordered. "Five
minutes? What I'm I suppose to wear in
such time, my lingerie?" I said sternly
making Willbert smiled mischievously, "I
would love to see you in those?" He
said.
". 'll go get changed, give me five
minutes!"I said as I left hurriedly into
the closet. It was hard to select an outfit
out of many. I searched and searched
till I found the clothes I thought was
perfect. It was a blue skinny jeans, a
white dickey (polo shirt), a white
sneakers and my purse. I went all
casual, letting my black hair down my
back.
I walked back into the room, "I'm done!"
I said to the man sitting on the couch
lost in his thoughts. My words broke
him off his daze, as he darted his gaze
to me and he studied my outfit for a few
seconds without a word. "Willbert can we
go now? I know your eyes can't let go of
this beauty. But you can look at me all
you want when we get back to New
York!" I said confidently.
"What are you wearing?" He asked
quizzically. I was astonished by his
reaction, "Did you practice being this
ugly? You look more like a stick. You
lack all the feminine characteristics in
you.!" He laughed sardonically. I was
sure I studied my appearance in the
mirror over and over again to be sure I
was okay. I bit my lips hard, sure he
must have won this time but l'd prepare
a comeback that would hurt him pretty
bad too.
I smiled bitterly at his words, he really
got to me this time. For the first time in
my life I became conscious of my
appearance. This man was taunting me
physically, mentally and emotionally,
and at this point my hate for him just
doubled
We walked out of the huge mansion,
there were more than five black
helicopters in the yard with pilots in
each of them ready to fly. I darted my
gaze around as if searching for
something, actually I really wanted to
know where we were. That was when I
realized we were on an island, yes
Alex's private island. My eyes widened
in surprise.
The island was massive, and beautiful
and I noticed this mansion was the only
building on this island. There were
more than a 100 armed men in black on
this Island. I was perplexed by what I
saw, just who the hell is "Willbert
Arison's
They all noticed our presence and
bowed in unison immediately. I wouldn't
lie, I felt like a boss asI walked in their
midst, but I couldn't enjoy my little
fantasy cause the devil picked me up
immediately and placed me in the
helicopter. He kept a livid face as he got
in so I wouldn't talk to him right now.
We arrived at the airport, making a
scene as everyone starred endlessly at
us. "You know it's not a big deal if we
used a car?" I asked but Willbert said
nothing to me, he ignored me
completely. Which made me wonder
what has got this angry. I was confident
it wasn't me.
We walked into the pj and in a few
hours we arrived in New York City.
walked out of the airport to expecting
see the usual black suit huge men
waiting for us, but this time I saw Annie
standing with a blonde haired tall
skinny man. He looked like a model.
Annie smiled the moment she saw me
walking towards them and I smiled
back at her. At least I could say I have a
friend since I joined the high class
society. "Welcome back Rose how was
your trip!" She hugged me tightly "t was
fun, you look good!" I smiled at her. "
You too!" She said "Oh yeah this is my
cousin Rafael Delaney!" Annie introduced
the blonde hair man to me.
"It's nice to see you Mr Delaney!"I
greeted with a smile. "No need to be
too formal princess!" He brought his
hand for a hand shake and I shook him
and he placed a kiss on my palm "call
me Raf!" He winked at me with a smile.
Carie rolled her eyes at these "You
should have respect for your cousins
wife Rafael. Not trying to seduce her
you know what Willbert's capable of!l" Annie
said which made me remember I
arrived in this city with Willbert, he even
asked me to keep going that he would
catch up.
I peeked around but could not see him
or his troop of body guards anywhere.
Hey calm down sis besides it's a
harmless kiss on her hands!". He said
with a smirk "You're not offended are
you princess?" Rafael asked me with a
smile which broke me off my daze."
What? Oh.. when you cross boundaries
I'll let you know!" I smiled back at him.'
Let's go, the chauffeur's waiting for us!"Annie" said and we all walked into the
car.
We arrived at a private estate tucked
away from commoners, after a 45min
drive from the airport. My body buzzed
with anticipation for what layed ahead,
and after driving through a long road
that was surounded by nothing but tall
trees, we arrived at a golden gate made
with real gold.
We met endless trails of bodyguards at
the gate guarding it with guns in their
hands. I gulped softly at the sight of
them, they looked even more
intimidating than the former guards I've
met. Willbert was indeed a psyco, what
normal human would have packS of
bodyguards in every mansion of his.
