V'S POV
I couldn't sleep at all although it's normal to me now but even so,knowing that someone is now living here with me,just a mere thought of it leaves me restless.On the other hand I couldn't feel any bad aura on her,she's quite mature at her age and the first time my eyes landed on her clothes less body still remains in my mind,every inch of her curves in my mind and left me nothing but confusion.In this regard I knew that Aqui and Callie will smelled something about it but nonetheless I had to ignore them as I have nothing to tell to them anyway.I look at my digital clock on my beside table and saw it's already 4:00 in the morning so I decided to rise and prepare some breakfast for me and "her" I will just leave it on the dinning table for her to eat later.I wasn't like anyone who was depending on people even though I could pay them to do things for me ,I wouldn't especially my meals and everything like clothes or the things I'm personally using.I was the one who chose them ,however there's a family that my grandfather trusted ,from their grandfather which is my "papà's best friend to his son passed down to his entire generation.
I went to the kitchen and started cooking.I just go with some light meals as I know she has scheduled to meet the team later.Scrambled eggs with cheese,Fried bacon and homemade sausage and some toast with avocado ,cherry tomatoes,some cucumber,lettuce and pan fried chicken breast .I was contemplating to made her some coffee cause it will not be hot anymore when she wakes up I was about to put back the cup on the counter when I heard some footsteps coming towards me.When she finally met my gaze she was like statue,standing firmly lost for words and almost not breathing.
"BREATHE "
I whispers and she doesn't know where to look at and where to go. I move backwards and motioned her to settle on the chair and she follows.I started making two cups of coffee and the aroma it brings to my nose awaken me even more.When I'm done I place one on her side .
"EAT"
She was like my Cloud which is so obedient to every word I said and for some reason....for some reason I found it "cute"word that exists only for my pets.I know she want say something but her mouth can't utter any words despite the fact that she's trying to open it but fails in the end.I observe how she eats,she was looking intently on the toast on her right right and I know exactly why is she giving those expressions to the toast I made...she doesn't like vegetables that much especially when it's raw and I place fresh cherry tomatoes,cucumber and lettuce in her toast.Her mother was very clear to Aqui when she tells that ,"she only eats vegetables when it finely cooked".Which I found true now.I rise from my seat and stand behind her,she doesn't even pay attention to my presence causing her to almost stumble on her seat when I came closer to her almost touching her back .
"Next time you will eat whatever I prepare on the table".
I tell her almost whisper to her left ear and she's obviously trembling.I hold her hand and take piece by piece the vegetables and place them on the plate.My aura maybe overwhelmed her that's why she's trembling and can't say anything but I don't dislike it more to my liking how creatures were always under my feet.But this woman is something, I don't despise her kind and here presence,sounds amusing to me .
"EAT"
I told her once again .still not looking at me.
"Look at me"I commanded and she slowly turned her gaze to me.
"You sound terrified ,are you afraid of me,,,hmm?"with my soft voice.
"I-was...I was told not to look at you in the face nor in your eyes "Ma'am" she emphasized those words for me to confirm her respect to me.
"Hmm.that might be Aquixia who told you,and does she hadn't spoken about "Following every word I say "to you?.Shocked written on her face and was about to lower her head once again when I forbid her.
"No one's allowed to look at my face especially to my eyes as they have no right too ...however my Words were like laws in this world I'am the RULES AND THE RULER so whatever I say YOU.WILL.FOLLOW."she's about to cry I can tell ,her face turned red .
"Look at me,my eyes you're looking at right now weren't real so fear not as no red dot was pointing at you in this moment."
She composed herself and actually found her words to speak now.
"Ma-.I cut her off.
"Call me "V"from now on,she nodded and talk once more.
" V,about the contract it says that I will have time to complete my studies and I ....I just want to know how ?"
"Tell me about your passion,the things you truly see yourself in the future ".
"I-I want to become a very successful person in modeling and acting career it wasn't just because my mom's was one before but it's within me and I wanna inspire young people to pursue their dreams despite the world's against them and put their mind and heart into it as they will reach it someday".
"Quite interesting,then a piece of paper shouldn't be important to you then...right?
"No..I mean Yes it is because I wanna go back to my mom's hometown and show my relatives in there that my mom raised me so well and inspired them too..."
"Tell me what course would you like to take this time?"
"Cu—culinary if I may choose."
"Do you know how to cook?"
"Yes but not some chef's cook ...I mean I was basically living alone so I had to learn for my everyday meal and besides my mom and dad were also good at it...I guess their genes combined in me..."she was now more relaxed and comfortable while talking not like before when we just started this conversation and I just found out that the toast even the scrambled eggs on her plate were now gone,while she was still holding her cup of coffee and sometimes caressing it like she's enjoying the liquid on that cup.Interesting indeed,I should talk to Adeline later to bring our family's trusted chef's then.
"Very well then,from here and then you will learn from the few trusted chef my family have and they will personally teach you everything you need to learn ,you will get your degree and diploma when you reach their expertise,for now go back to your room and prepare for later,you will be introduced to the team of the company."
"T-hank you V,let me clean the di-
"No need ,go."she smiled a bit and almost run to her room.
After I took the shower I went to my exercise room.Yeah,I have everything in this house for my daily routine even in works related .After I do my workout I went to the upper floor to the 19th to be exact to swim at my pool which is located in there.I spent almost an hour and decided to went back to my room.After my shower I wear my casual clothes which is a plain black long sleeve and plain black trousers with black belt and black heels.I went outside my room and go straight to my work room which is on the 20th floor.
"Ade,bring Willow and Wilfred here later in the afternoon "
"Yes V and by the way Arlo will be arriving soon he said that he has something to tell you,would you like me to tag him along later or..."
"Not today,send him here tomorrow morning at 9."
"Alright V would that be all you want to say?"I just humm in response and cut the call directly.
"Maybe she wasn't looking on them right?then why her face was crimson the whole time?"thoughts run to my mind as I remember our conversation back on the dining earlier.
