William pulled me into his arms and kissed me like a hungry man. All my embarrassment went away as soon as his lips touched mine. His tongue started roaming in my mouth, tasting me. Not missing any corner. Stroking the walls of my mouth and sucking on my tongue. His hands started roaming on my flushed sensitive skin. Rubbing circles on my hips, his on the other hand caressing my cheek. Sparks were flowing everywhere. There was so much sexual tension in the room that anyone could cut it with a knife. I shocked myself by kissing him back. Our tongues were fighting for dominance. I feel disgusted with myself knowing I'm not meant to be doing this. He is my boss's son technically my boss whose marrying some rich girl. The more shocking fact was that I was enjoying myself a lot. That I didn't want William to stop.He pulled back from the kiss and started planting soft wet kisses from the corner of my mouth to my collarbone, sucking on my neck In the process. I feel myself shivering under his touch. It felt so good. He started sucking my lips again and I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him in, wanting to feel all of him. As I started kissing him back, fighting for dominance even when I knew that I can never win; His phone starts ringing, the most annoying sound I've ever heard. He pulls out from the kiss and takes his phone out. I so want to smash that phone right now. I was having the time of my life but That damn phone ruined it. I saw it flashing 'Ariel' on the screen, guilt and disgust started building up inside me but I chose to ignore it, he picked up."Ariel." He said in a resigned tone as if answering her call was the last thing he wanted to do. I felt happy about it. "William, darling. I heard her screeched voice over the phone. She seems so desperate even when she is on the phone. "I'm standing at the front door of your house right now and the old maid won't let me in." she said, sounding like an outright b***h. I knew she was referring to Elizabeth .Elizabeth was right; she is a snobby spoiled rich brat. She has no manners and respect. I heard William telling her never to refer to Elizabeth as an old maid again as he walked out of my room. I felt hurt; he didn't even say a word to me before he left. I also felt this sudden surge of jealousy in me as I watched him leave and my heart broke. I felt like crying but I remembered my mother's word.My darling, don't let anyone have the power to make you cry and if William likes you a lot like you like him he wouldn't marry her. I won't give him the pleasure of making me cry. I think somewhere in my heart I knew that this will happen. But I won't cry over him, I can't do this to myself... my heart. I get dressed and head out of the room to see if Elizabeth needs me to do anything. ****** 'Elizabeth .' I called as I entered the kitchen. "Olivia dear, I'm in here." I found her sitting at the end of the kitchen and I walked to her. Before I could start talking she started talking. "That Barbie doll lacks manners and she calls herself a princess. I feel like ripping those fake extensions of her head. She is such a sl.ut My eyes widen at Elizabeth's choice of words. I have never heard her talk bad about someone; she's always so graceful and well- mannered. “Ellie! I have never heard you speak like that. What did she do?" "She called me old. An old nun. Can you believe it?" "I'm very sorry, Elizabeth . You're actually not old.' apologized hoping it would make her feel better. She's probably the same age as my mother. "Treasure. You don't need to apologize on her behalf. You are so sweet." She said as she pulled me into her warmth. I hugged her back, just knowing how much I need a hug to mend my heart. I need my Mother to hug me. For once I thought everything was perfect in my life, that there were no more worries but William had to come and break my little sweet dream of a better life. "I'm having a migraine and I need some rest. I really can't handle her. She really knows how to work someone up. Can you please attend to them? I won't be able to do it, I just can't stand her." "Sure. Do you need anything else?" "No honey. Just ask William and his doll if they need anything. She looks so tired, her voice also sounds tired. I watched as she walked away. I just hope my heart can handle William and his soon-to-be- wife. Sigh. I have searched for the perfect couple Note my sarcasm.' everywhere but I still haven't found them. I just came out of the pool room and I still haven't found them. I wonder where they are and What are they doing? My heart sinks as I thought of some possible scenarios…some very intimate one. The only place I haven't checked is the vineyard but I'm very sure that they can't be there. I walked into the vineyard only to be greeted with silence. I knew that they wouldn't be here. There is no point of being here. As I walked inside I remembered the kiss I shared with William here. My stomach churns but in a good kind of way. As I was about to walk out, I started hearing moans and gasps. Only to walk further inside and see Williams hands all over Ariel, kissing her. I feel my already broken heart shatter completely; involuntarily I let out a gasp and feel my eyes burning with tears. I hold them back in because I'm sure my heart can't bear the humiliation of William seeing me cry. I took a deep breath to control my emotions. I can't help but feel betrayed, I feel as if he cheated on me and it hurts. Ariel's eyes shoot open at the sound of my gasp and she glares at me and pulls away from William. If looks can kill I would have been buried six feet deep inside the ground by now. "What do you want? Can't you see we're busy? William I think you need to tell your mother about changing the staff here. They're very ill- mannered." She says at one go. She sure has a running mouth. "Ariel, you don't need to address her that way." William defends. His eyes soften when he sees me and his face has guilt written all over it. il bastard! He should feel guilty. "It's okay. I just wanted to ask if you need any refreshments." Ariel rolled her eyes. "If that's all you can leave. We don't need any refreshments. If we need anything we will call you. Now please leave." She snapped. I stood there looking like an i***t; I was waiting for William to speak. "You can go.' He doesn't even address me by my name. I wonder sometimes, what if he is playing with my feelings. What if he just wants to get in my pants? That's the case right, he admitted himself that he doesn't want any kind of relationship with me. I walked out of the vineyard hurriedly into my room to cry out my heart's content. I just can't control my tears anymore; they flow out on their own accord. As I was crying Elizabeth walked into my room without knocking and I quickly tried to clear up my face but with my red and puffy eyes it's obvious I've been crying. She walks to my side and engulfs me in a big warm hug. Soothing and hushing me. "It's okay, Darling. Your heart wants what it wants so don't try and go against it. You never know joy until you've experienced pain. Everything will be okay. William is just getting confused you have to give him some time so that he can know what he wants. He'll come around just wait and see. Shh." Marie knows. My mother knows but William He is still clueless. Can't he see I am falling for him? After a while, I didn't have any more tears left and I was still in Elizabeth's arms. "Why don't you go take a shower and freshen up? Get rid of those awful puffy eyes and come looking like the beautiful Olivia I know." She said walking with me to the bathroom. She is so like my mother. She understands me just like my mother does. "After your shower you'll come in the kitchen and you will have some hot chocolate with me and it'll leave you feeling better. Just like my American niece always says 'Aunt Elizabeth Hot Chocolate Mends All Broken Hearts'. she said waving her hand in the air, making me giggle. Her presence made me feel a lot better. I can't stand being alone right now. ****** After my shower and hot chocolate, I felt a lot better. I guess the American niece was right. Ariel and her bad aura long gone and I haven't set my eyes on William since then. Not that I want to, I said to myself. You're right, my alert subconscious replied. Mr and Mrs Hubert just arrived and the family is having dinner. Mrs Hubert hasn't stopped asking William about his day with Ariel, to which he has given the same retort, "Horrible." Mrs Hubert was really upset but she still didn't stop asking William more questions which led to a heated argument just like every day. I overheard their constant dinner argument. I know it's rude but I can't help it. "You sure do know. That's not how I raised you. I hear my mum's imaginary sing-song voice. "Father I think you may have to stick it into mother's skull that I'm not marrying Ariel. She's not even material for a wife or marriage. I don't want a wife or kids." "I'm not interfering in this. Just know what you want." "William. You have to marry Ariel and you must have kids. Where will all your good looks go? And Ariel is so beautiful; you will make such good-looking kids together." "Mum. I've said enough.' He said as he threw his towel over his finished food and stomped out of the dining room angrily. ***** I start clearing up the kitchen after the dinner, after they left for bed. Elizabeth has long gone to bed because of her returning migraines. As I head to my room, someone grabbed my arm I and I already knew who the culprit is, William . "Olivia." "Yes, Sir.' I replied with a firm, business-like voice. "Umm...." He said scratching the back of his head. He looks confused and nervous. I think he wasn't expecting this kind of behavior from me. "Sir." "Olivia, can you stop? Call me William." As you wish. William." I was laughing my ass off in my head. I was enjoying this. He was starting to get irritated "I'm sorry." He said his voice full of sincerity "For what?" That's right! Play dumb, my subconscious called out happily. "For this afternoon. Umm about Ariel and me, it wasn't what you saw. It meant nothing." "Ohh that. Sir, I mean William. Your relationships are none of my business. I'm only here as a maid, to cook and clean. I have no right to interfere in any of your relationships. So you don't need to apologize." He grabbed me and pulled me into his arms, his warmth. I loved the feel of it, but I knew better than to melt in his arms. "Olivia. I'm really sorry. I don't know why I'm apologizing a bit. I just have this urge to. Forgive me?" He said as he pulled back, giving me his dazzling toothed smile, making him look like a child. Perfection. That's the word to describe him. I "William . I don't hold any grudge against you. You're still going to get married to her. I don't have any business with it really. I'll be out of here, before you blink an eye." His eyes harden immediately and he moves so close to my I face, I feel his breath on my cheek. "I'm never marrying Ariel. And you are not leaving this house until I have my fill of you.' He said his voice hard and firm, void of any emotion. So, he just wants to get in my pants. I knew it. Just before he turns his back, he crashes his lips to mine, giving me a punishing kiss. Sucking on my bottom lip, stroking my tongue with his, tasting my mouth. The kiss was filled with urgency. As I started kissing him back and he pulled away and turned walking down the corridor, not before turning and winking at me. I shake my head and giggle as I enter my room. That was not what I had planned out; we can't do this when we know what his real intentions are. You will be the one to get hurting the end. My subconscious sulks. "Oh hush! You kill-joy." I replied haughtily. I know she is right but I can't help it. It's the William effect. I am just worried about my heart .
