HER DIRTY SECRET
C H A P T E R – IV: THE FOYER
ROSETRIX LEXAR
I should have known I’m stepping at a wolf’s mansion and what’s more, an alpha's. Damn it!
He must've been protected with a witch's magic for him to be able to hide his aura outside this mansion,
I sensed the aura of wolves the moment we entered the enormous gate to Claus’s mansion. I kept my eyes closed and still pretended to be asleep, I have been running away from this life, I shall keep my identity hidden. No matter what, I desire a normal life.
I felt Claus’s warm hands, he was the gentlest Grander I’ve had. Despite my jurisdiction a lot of my grander takes over my body the moment I entered the vehicle, cupping my breast, kissing my neck, asking a blow or even asking me for a lap dance, but not Claus.
“Adresty, please wake up” he spoke softly, soothingly,
“Oh, I am sorry Claus. My deepest apologies,” he just smiled and nodded his head slowly from left to right,
“Can I ask what you meant when no Grander has ever seen beyond the mask? Because, of course, I kind of don’t expect you to wear that mask 24 hours a day for the rest of the two months.” he smiled so adorably that I just want to f*****g squeeze his freaking face!
“In fact, it was true if I’m going to remember it right, for a year. I’ve had 21 Granders, and they, knowing that they only bought me for my talent decided not to see my face so they wouldn’t be tempted not to do anything beyond the grazing. To be honest, I’m more of like a prisoner to my Granders, they buy my days, I stay at a room hidden and only calls me for entertainment; most especially for the married ones.” I replied playing thumb fight with my own,
“Makes sense, I’m not married though, I almost got married but I am totally single just so you know . . .”
“Your private life is within your own jurisdiction, being a dickhead is also your choice. I’m just a mere entertainer” I could not help but leave a chuckle as I replied, I have never felt so comfortable to a grander,
“No, no, no, I mean when you enter my house you can live a normal life, it is only I inside that mansion, I have no maids, they only clean my house once a week, I cook for myself and prepares for myself.” My right brow rose,
“That’s new” I was not able to hold that thought,
“I am a very private person, we have guards at the gates and within specific parameters are my relatives” Of course, wolves, this is the pack’s meeting place and recoup house.
“Thank you so much, for somehow making me feel at ease; I’m a cold hearted person as far as I know but I really appreciate your hospitality,”
“Would you like me to remove my mask?” I stared at him, he looked taken back.
“Not that I’d like to aside from my curiosity but I don’t want to make you feel uncomfortable, that’s why at least” he replied as he grabbed the glass of champagne and emptied it.
I chuckled,
I reached for the lock behind my hair and slowly remove it,
I saw his eyes, piercing through my soul,
The perfect eyes that captured me tonight,
No grander has seen beyond the mask,
Is it possible for me to feel a mate? No, impossible, maybe it’s just because he is incredibly handsome but not because of my mixed-up nature. It was sealed, hidden away, right now I’m just human.
“Perfect” he said under his breath which awkwardly placed his gaze away from me.
He took a deep breath,
“Shall we?”
He got out of the limousine and assisted me himself, new indeed new.
We walked to the staircase to the entrance of the house and entered, welcoming me with a grand foyer and a beautiful crystal chandelier.
“Impressive,” I spoke,
“I know you must be tired, let me show you to your room,” he said,
“That room used to be my sister’s room, but she’s married now, as far as I know, there are a few clothes there but we’ll buy some tomorrow”
“Yes Claus, if you say so” all of a sudden I felt quite dizzy, it must be the crystal impossible, or maybe the champagne,
“I’m sorry, despite my job, my alcohol tolerance is quite low,” I commented, Lies,
“No, no worries let me carry you” he carried me bridal style, he had the most attractive smell that my nose has smelt; we went upstairs to the left-wing, he managed to twist the knob and placed me to bed,
I felt really weak for a moment but when I got to bed it felt better, maybe it was just the wine.
“Rest” he said as he removed my high heels and placed it beside the bed,
“Claus” he was about to stand up,
“This might be too much but would you mind giving me baby wipes or any wipes just to remove my make-up, that’s all” he smiled at me and nodded,
“Thank you” he gave me thumbs up, I looked above the ceiling and noticed that the ceiling has a horizontal mirror with the same length of the bed, damn. Why is it that erotic things are flashing to my mind? Clear it up!!!!
After a short while, Claus entered.
“Here, please make yourself comfortable, rest for the night”
“Good night,” I said, my English accent is quite dominant,
“Your accent really does spark my curiosity in some way but good night Adresty” he closed the door leaving me quite taken back with the word curiosity, no grander has felt that, not even one.
I grabbed the wipes and started to remove the heavy make up on my face, removed the fake lashes, I took a deep breath and placed the used wipes at the lamp table near the bed.
I removed my clothes and decided to sleep with only the thong beneath my faux-leather thong on.
“Perfect” I heard Claus’s voice in my head after I said perfect, I smiled and closed my eyes.
Damn it, why did I even smile?
