"Don't try to do something nonsense, doll. If you tried, you'll be the one to choose the punishment." He coldly spoke, before giving the keys to Maria.

For two hours, in a whole day. It was so
better idea. It has been, a week since I am hostage in here. But now I can have a clearer idea of the house and household.

Rin goes, to his work, around 7 a.m. Returns, late usually, but generally at 10 p.m.

There's a security in-charge, name, James. He is a tall, grumpy man, I have only seen him, twice. I asked Maria about him, but as she wasn't able to speak any much, the most I know is, he is always with Rin. 24/7. The entire place is under his surveillance.

There's a time between, 1p.m. to 4 p.m. most of the maids are out for lunch. A few stay in the household. That seems more like an opportunity to me. Another thing, which is stuck in my mind is, the keys.

There are two keys. One is for locking and other for unlocking. Both are with Maria. Maybe I can get Maria's.

Even though, if I am able to get the key, there's a code requirement, for the gate.

"Mrs. Itoshi?" I heard Maria, giving me a call, I turned to see her. I was sitting in the balcony of the room, when Maria called me, from the door.

"Sir is back." I nodded standing up. As I went out of the room, I saw Rin feeding the code, on the door, locking it with the key in his hand, stuffing back in his pocket.

That's what I want.

The key and the code.

The code's something, I can't get, right from here. But maybe if I pay more attention on the door, I might. I wish I could get in his head.

My eyes fixed on the door, quickly taking it back to Rin. He stopped in the mid when saw me on the staircase, a wryly smile rested on his lips. "Hey, honey." He kissed me on my cheek, walking past towards the room. Though I hate that face, but he looked somewhat tired today.

I followed back shortly after him. Loosening up his tie, I saw him plopping on the mattress. I have no idea what I am doing but have to wear it out today, the type of behavior he wants from me. The perfect way of luring him.

I walked towards him, taking his hands in mine. The astonishment on his face was clearly visible. I knelt down, looking deep in his blue chromes. "Was it tiring today?"

His eyes were slightly wider as I cupped his face in my palms. He cleared his throat before, nodding his head. He averted his gaze away, trying not to look at me, the same wavering in his eyes floated to the top.

He shows he is cruel, cold and ruthless but he isn't deep down there. I moved closer, close enough between his legs, putting my arms around his neck, hugging him.

His body felt hotter. As I felt him shivering. He can't handle my touch? That's so ironic. A smirk formed on my lips. His hands wrapped around me. I rolled my eyes in cringe.

God! I badly I want to choke him to death.

Just when I heard him breathing heavily, parting with me. "What's the matter, Rin? Are you fine?" I asked, knowing the reason— I poured the irresistible fragrance of lavender, which he is allergic to— on purpose.

He coughed, huffing and sneezing continuously. "I am good. It's just the.." he sneezed, getting up from the bed moving away from me. "...air maybe." He glared at me with his red tinted eyes. Without sparing any glance, he ran into the bathroom.
