The Italian God

Chapter 20

Maya Pov

I didn't love him, he tortured and held me captive for two years. I looked Lorenzo in the eyes showing him that I wasn't going to answer that question. That was my past, something he shouldn't even know. I knew he wanted to know what exactly happened, I am sure the files didn't say. All they had was the 911 called I made and his cause of death. If it wasn't for Matt I would be rotting in jail right now.
I saw the defeat in his eyes, he knew I wasn't going to tell him.

"We are having guests, dress appropriately" he says before making his way out.

"Guest?!" I called after him. Why do I need to be there?. And when he says guests does he mean 4 people or a hundred.

Cazzo!

Deciding it would be better if I took my bath later at night. It was almost dinner time, normally Maria would bring my food up but I think we are going to be eating together tonight.

Going to the wardrobe looking for something to wear. The buries on my face and body are almost gone, you can only see a few marks. But I didn't want to wear something revealing. Since the weather was hot today I decided to go with a sundress, not my style but that's all that seems to fill the closet which made sense cause of the weather.

The dress had buttons going all the way down, the sleeves were a bit bigger than I liked but it looked good on me. Made me look innocent, like an angle. Ha! I laughed out loud. Yeah I'm anything but an angel. Putting my hair into a neater ponytail, it's longer than I want it to be. I am in need of a hair cut, I never like long hair ever since that bastard.

I stopped applying lip gloss when I heard the sound of a car pulling up, since I was in the other side of the house I couldn't see the drive way. But the cars were pretty loud. I wonder who it could be? And does he want me there, normally he would have Raffael tell me not to leave my room whenever he had guest. I wonder why today was different. Huh?

I made my way to the kitchen, surprised Raffael wasn't at my door. Where was he? Not that I enjoyed his company. The house was empty and quite, all you could here were my red heels hitting the tiles. where were the guests? I'm sure I heard there cars pulling up.

The kitchen on the other hand was crazy, pots clacking. The cooks screaming and cursing in Italian, yeah you get the gist.

"Miss Maya you shouldn't be here"

Maria says when she sees me walking towards her.

Maria was a black head petty girl, she was the one who was bring me my food. I've gotten to like her a little bit, she was the only one my age here.
"Mr Lorenzo told us you were having dinner with them" Maria says arranging a bunch of plates
"Yeah we'll I can't find them" I told her, not that I looked for them. I don't mind hanging out in the kitchen.

"They are at the garden, now shoo before you make him angry" she pushes me towards the door.
She closed the door in face before I could say anything, how rude. She even locked me out the back door. I could see a guard from where I was standing. He stopped and looked at me pausing for a second, he held his rifle closer to his body. Did he think I was trying to do something? Not yet. I turned around and made my way to the garden.
It was beautiful of a day. It was hotter than Hades, probably why he decided to have the dinner outside. I could hear voices but it wasn't loud, so it was just a few people.

They were all sitting on a long table, it was only 5 people, I could see Lorenzo in a white shirt sitting at the edge of the table. But that wasn't what made me look. It was the beautiful blonde that was talking to him. I couldn't see her face but I could tell she was a beauty, by the way he was looking at her. There was another man an the other head, he looked older a than the rest.
