The cab she booked came to a stop at the front of the gigantic villa. She let out deep breaths. There was no way in the world she would try such a gamble if she didn't need money urgently, not to mention the well-known fact that no one had ever successfully robbed the villa without being caught and thrown straight to jail. She pushed those negative thoughts behind her and readied herself to go, "It's go time". She said to herself.
She alighted the car and hid behind one of the bushes. She didn't carry a gun because she knew shooting anyone in daylight was the stupidest thing to do.
She had hacked the gate to the villa before coming, so she tapped her wristwatch which was automated, and the gate opened by itself. She swiftly went inside and hid behind a wall. Surely, the little noise the gate made was enough to get the attention of some of the security guards as none of them had opened it.
She felt relief which was short lived as a guard came to stand in front of her "f**k". She cursed under her breath.
."Trespasser" the guard accused and she rolled her eyes, she quickly ran away from there, leaving the guard behind before he started trailing behind her.
She reached the fountain at the middle of the front yard but she slipped and fell into the water, which was a little dip. Her surgical mask came off and got ruined. She went out of the water and saw about 6 guards surrounding her with guns pointed at her and she was trapped.
She closed her eyes and teleported away from their midst. The guards became wide-eyed.
"She's the 'witch'" they gasped.
Evie arrived at one of the rooms in the villa, she stood close to the safe. "Time to get this done and over with" she said to herself.
She tried the combination but it wasn't working, the safe was sealed shut. When she tried it one more time, the alarm went off.
"s**t" she cursed. Today wasn't her day.
She turned her back against the safe and found a guy standing there. She was dumbstruck not just because she had been caught, but also because of his mesmerizing beauty.
If he wasn't an angel, then he would be the direct recarnation of Lucifer.
He had dark hair and red eyes, his hair fell sideways reaching his temples. He had pale pink lips which could call every girl for a kiss, his face was well sculpted like the god of beauty, who took his time to create him.
He glared at her as if his one gaze could send her to hell. She snapped out of her hallucination and attempted to teleport away when he held her hands. It felt like time froze because she couldn't use her powers. She tried to but nothing was happening. She felt everything become dull and blurry till she passed out.
Evie squinted her eyes as she tried to adjust to the bright lighting, she rubbed her eyes and yawned softly as she sat on the bed. She looked around the room which spelt total luxury, her brows creased as she realized that the place wasn't her apartment.
"s**t" she immediately sprang up from the bed. "What the heck", she raked her hands through her blonde hair and let out a frustrated sigh. she looked at the luxurious things around her and wondered if she could ever have a life just like that.
She sat on the king-sized bed and faced palmed herself when she heard someone knock on the door. She didn't respond, but when the person kept making soft raps on the door, she had to
"Co.. come in" her voice came out low, but luckily, the person at the other end heard her as the door opened.
A man in his late 40's entered the room.
"Good day Madam" he bowed politely.
"Huh...wha.. " she couldn't make a sentence because first she was at a villa she had practically tried to rob literally a few hours ago and now she was being treated like she owned the place?, she was dumbstruck.
"No no no" Evie shook her head. "You've got the wrong girl".
"Master says to take absolute care of the young miss in the villa right now and that's you" the butler replied politely.
Evie didn't reply but several thoughts raced through her mind, ' Did the people who had earlier robbed this mansion before her get special treatment like this before being thrown in jail?' she asked herself.
She tried using her powers but instead she felt a shocking sensation which hurt her a lot.
The butler rang a small bell in his hands and 4 maids entered the room and they bowed simultaneously.
"These are the girls who will be taking care of you" the butler said and bowed once again before leaving the room.
