Until There Was You

Lexi

Chapter 6

*Lexi*

I am comfy and warm.....my eyes fly open, my bed isn't comfy and its never warm. Where the hell am I? Last night comes flooding back to me, running from Liam, Creepy Dude dragging me to my room by my hair as Mike laughs, Liam......Oh my god Liam came!

I scan the cream and sky blue room and wow its the most stunning room i have ever seen. Blue silk curtains cover a floor to ceiling window letting the sun almost dance through them majestically. This bed could sleep five of me and is all cream and blue soft cotton and silk, its amazing. I sit up and notice i am in a black t shirt that is so big it hangs off one shoulder, it must be Liams...... he changed me? I exhale a big cleansing breath, flopping backwards on top the pillows again and a piece of paper flutters up into the air. Strangely i feel giddy at the thought of a note from Liam.

Lexi,

Good Morning I hope you slept well. I am sorry i couldn't be there when you woke but I have a really important breakfast meeting. Help yourself to a shower I have left some more clothes for you on the chair in the corner. Please eat, the kitchen is well stocked. I will be back by 1.30 at the latest. Make yourself at home we will talk when i return.

I check the time, its already 11.45 wow i slept so late. I rush to the bathroom my body protesting at my fast movements. The bathroom is just as incredible as the rest of this place. The marble free standing bath with gold claw legged feet catches my attention, i wonder if they are real gold? I doubt it, wow the shower is behind the most intricate frosted glass enclosure and i press the button on the wall to start up all six jets. WOW!

As i strip off the t shirt and my underwear i take a look at my injuries in the full lenght mirror that covers one whole wall. My head looks awful, i have a gash about 2cm long with bruising down the left side of my face. My arms are marred with purple and black hand prints and my left elbow is grazed from the pavement the same as my left knee. I look a mess, i can't stand to see myself anymore so i turn away and get in the shower.

After the most amazing shower i feel so much better, i feel clean. I get dressed into the clothes Liam left for me. Liam even the thought of him makes me smile. I head into the massive kitchen and make myself a coffee and a piece of toast, i don't each much so this is plenty.

I hear the door and a smile immediately takes over my face as i bounce into the living room a little nervous but still excited, my smile quickly fades when a tall, slim, stunning blonde in a immaculate light pink suit with matching heels stops in her place by the piano eyeing me with disgust. I soon remember myself and the fact i am stood before the gorgeous woman in clothes that are way to big to be mine, the sweat pants are rolled at both the waist and the ankles. My hair still damp and unbrushed in a messy bun careless dumped on top of my head.

'Who are you?' she snaps at me.

'Erm... I am Lexi and you are?' i stutter.

'Why are you here?' she ignores my question and places her hands on her perfectly sized hips.

I want to say i really don't know, but somehow that doesn't sound believable even to me.

'Did you fuck him?' her crudeness takes me off guard, my jaw hits the floor and my eyes widen. I go to deny it but she speaks before i can string together a coherent sentence.

'Get out of my house, leave now. Preferably in your own clothes but i don't really care' she sneers and i am to stunned to move let alone speak. Her house?!

'Do you have any idea who i am?' She is seething from my lack of response to her but words evade me, i can't get the fact she said her house off my brain. I am pleased with myself that i manage to shake my head.

'I am Mellissa Reddington Heiress to the entire Reddington Estate, but more importantly to you I am Liam Coltans fiancee' she says the last word slowly and clearly to make her point but she needn't have bothered my mind was already free falling faster than i could comprehend. Liam has a fiancee, he is engaged to be married, to her.

The sound of her clicking her fingers brings me back to earth with a crash. Wow the man that paid £500 to help me, the man that kissed me like i was the only girl in the world, the man that came after me and saved me from being raped in my own home is the same man that neglected to mention his super model fiancee. My Liam didn't tell me. Oh get a grip he was never your Liam, you barely know him. Hes her Liam.

'I should leave......yeah I'm just going to erm yeah' I mutter trying to collect my thoughts as i walk blindly to the front door, my mind to over loaded to concentrate on the simple one foot in front of the other. I can't believe it , how could he? I mean yes we don't know each other but really should a married man or nearly married at least, be kissing unknown girls, lost in my thoughts i walked into a wall. Funny i don't remember a wall being there, i look up to meet the shining grey eyes of the man that saved me....... the engaged man i remind myself bitterly.

'Going somewhere?' he asks amused. How he has the nerve is beyond me.

'Your fiancee asked me to leave' I shot at him not even caring to be nice, I am hurt. He lied to me and now he has the audacity to look shocked and confused. Probably at being caught out well screw him, he is her problem not mine.
