NAVARRO SERIES 1:Caged By The Ruthless

CHAPTER 13

Socorro Ricks

After giving myself a tour here in my penthouse I decided to unpacked so I could rest for the rest of the day.

The whole interior of the house is completely fabulous too much to be said but seeing the whole place made me fell in love. If not with the help of Mang Jo and his nephew I couldn't purchase this in quick.

We still ran in legal process though but in normal days it'll take days and for my case Gavin pull his strings and connection into this so in just an hour I got this.

The whole wall has a color of dirty white with a small portion of peach in every corner. While the furniture had a touch of modern. It has a huge kitchen which I love the most. Movie theater that could fit less of twenty person. Gym that contains different sort of equipment and has a glass wall in the left side. Four bedrooms including the Master's bedroom which I'll occupy. Receiving area where, having a sofa set, single chairs, and a coffee table in the middle and a huge flat screen above the fireplace.

I got annoyed at first because somehow I got intrigued again because the whole place was already dressed up in appliance and some decorations. And I told myself who am I to complain if I won't need to waste my time in decorating the whole place anymore and it saved my money though.

Actually I haven't explore the whole place as tiredness consumed my body and was eager to feel the mattress against my skin.

I pushed my two luggages inside my closet room as I stepped inside the whole dark room start to light up. My mouth half opened can't believe what I saw. Now I can say my 1 million is worth it for this place. First thing first tommorow I will surely explore here to witness the things that could surprise me.

In the right side I could imagine placing my foot wears since I think it's the use of it. The left side has human length cabinet, cupboard, and drawers where I can store my clothes depends to it's sort.

Not forgetting, in front of me looks like a vanity. It has two drawers between the huge round mirror surrounded by fairy lights and a chair.

Overwhelm consume me while feeding my eyes with the beauty of this wardrobe. This is less compared to my wardrobe back in New York but I can't help myself to love this more. Especially the automatic things that exist here. What so more to the other places I haven't went.

I don't have a plan to leave yet but because of the yawn escaped my mouth I went out not caring to off the lights because I know it will went off once I got out.

Removing my shoes I climbed up to the bed. And an unexpected moan let out from my mouth. Well don't care as long as I have the whole time to lay on this matress. I felt like I'm laying in the clouds because of it's softness it's metaphoric to say but can't help myself.

I scoot under the duvet and not long when sleep consumed me and drifted to my deep slumber.

______________________________________

I groaned when my face was hit with the sun's ray. I turned my back hoping I still can resume my sleep. I don't want to get up yet. I'm planning to sleep for today so I could have the strength to face my real intention here.

And when sleep was about to consume me again unfortunately my phone rang in a place where I don't know. I screamed in irritation, getting up and find my phone while I murmured some curses that I could muster.

Fuck.

Shit.

Damn.

Bastard.

Bitch.

Hell.

That was just a few from what I said that I can remember. After a couple of seconds I found my phone placed over  the coffee table. I dropped myself on the sofa and picked my phone in such a manner.

Note: it's sarcasm.

Not daring to check who it was I accept the phone call and placed it on my ears.

" What! ", I said in a grumpy more in shout if I might add. Who wouldn't be? The caller just pulled me from my dream land.

And that was something inhuman.

In exchange I got a husky chuckle to the other line. Damn who owns this voice? It's sexy. It's look like a bedroom voice.

~Composed yourself Coco. You don't know who is he~

I brought back to my senses instantly killing the small fondness that was about to rose and replaced by anxiousness once I take a look of the number. It is an unknown number.

Who is this can be? I don't have no one friend which is a guy. Actually I merely have one. It's only Drew and Mike, we are blood related and consider as my friend. Remembering his voice, no one of the two have a tone like this, apparently Mike is a gay which is understandable and Drew is a guy but not huskier than this.

" Who are you? ", I finally said when I am able to form a sentence even it's a few. Keeping myself collected, not letting the man sense my nervousness.

" Ouch. Im hurt love, you forgotten me already? ", He acted like he was hurt, playfulness of his was evident. Not long when I hear him chuckle again. " No one can get away from me baby. Mark my words in no time I will come to you in a day you won't expect me. "

The playfulness of his voice was now gone, although replaced by threats, assuring, determination and danger.

My whole body felt numb, statued, bewildered, and such emotions that in about time I will surely pass out. What have I done to this man? Why of all people they chose me to annoy. Can't they spare me? I just felt happiness a while ago and why they taking it so soon?

First Mom's past, second the pictures and letters, then this. What in the world I have done? I'm all fed up. I want to take a break for this shit.

" Who are you? ", I managed to ask. I didn't stuttered nor stammered but fear can be sense on my voice. I felt weak like always.

Sweats started to build on my temple. I felt chill as shivered run down my spine. I held my phone tight not much to break it.

" Where's the fun in there if I'll let you know baby? Don't be desperate it doesn't suit you. Prepare for me baby....."

What he said is enough for my anxiety to rose. I look around me trying to see if the man is here. But I can't see anyone. By now I look like a scared cat the way my eyes move. I scoot at the edged of my seat. I hug my both knees and rested my forehead against my knee cap.

This is so much to bear worsen than the photos. I felt being watched and it makes me feel uneasy, scared, terrified, I think this will drive me crazy.

"......... And by the way. I don't like seeing you with a man. This is not an empty threat. By the way........ For sure David already met your grandparents......? "

David?

What does he mean?
