I shoved Enzo unceremoniously against my bedroom wall, attaching my lips to
his and not giving him any choice in the matter. I kiss him roughly,
sloppily even, pressing my body to his. I used one hand to cup his cheek
while my other held him back. I'm irritated when he doesn't respond in any
way, so I decided to step it up a notch. When he still doesn't do anything
but try and flinch away from me, I pull back from the kiss and step back.
Enzo slides down the wall, looking at me as if I've grown another head.
Shock is clear on his face. I don't blame him.
I hold my chin high and keep my voice level and firm. "You are to serve me.
You will do exactly as I say without question, not matter how odd the task."
"Will you continue to pay me?"
"You will not address me in that manner or tone." I set my icy glare right
on him, but I had a light smile playing on my features. No need to be too
harsh with him and scare him. Not if I wanted to have fun with it, which I
was planning on.
Enzo swalloed nervously, barely meeting my eyes. "M'lady, I need money so I
can get my brother a doctor. He's fallen ill and I cannot afford to care
for him."
I lessened my glare and frowned a bit. "I will pay you if you follow my
wishes correctly."
"Please, Miss Donatello, I will do anything if I means my brother can be
cured," he begged.
"Isn't that something that your own parents should be paying for?"
He didn't answer me, which got on my nerves. He would learn how he was
supposed to act in time, I supposed. I would make sure that he would behave
in front of my father for sure though. He was already angry enough, seeing
a slave disobey would cause him to go into a fit.
I decided against punishing him for now though. I was much too weary to do
much more than relax for the remainder of the day. I decided to call Lucio
to draw me a bath, but then decided against it. I had better things in
mind.
"Go fetch Lucio for me," I ordered. "Immediately."
Enzo nodded. "Yes, m'lady."
He scurried from the room, hitting his arm on the door on his way out. I
had to shake my head at the poor boy; he was almost useless.
I would make it my duty to make a man out of the boy. I had to.

"You called me, miss?" came Lucio's silky smooth, heavily-accented voice.
He came from Florence, Italy and was unmarried. He was a tall, lanky man
with dark olive skin and even darker brown hair. It was cropped short by
the demands of my father. He wore a simple dark gray servant's attire along
