Natalia was oppressed; she couldn't do anything, her mother worked as a servant in the castle of the lord, so she had only enough to survive, and the expense of the school were huge, it was a boarding school, one of the best in London. She doesn't have another choice. She has to work for him.
'Lord Benjamin I will do it. I will work for you.'
'Wise decision, don't look so sad. The salaries is the triple of what they pay you in the school, and you'll stay in the castle where you will have a suite, and you can bring your mother with you or she can stay in her house and with the salary you will have she won't ever need to work again. By the way, your stay in the castle is obligatory for only one year, after that you can continue working in my service or you can quit the job. Isn't it a good deal?' He asked her.
'Yes, it is.' She replied relieved.
'One more thing; you're mine until the year has passed.'
'What do you mean I'm yours?' She said getting angry.
'No man can touch you, only me. Am I clear? That if you want to keep your mother out of prison.' He said closing his eyes and leaning his head against his seat.
One year is more than enough to make her fall in love with me, he thought satisfied.
One year supporting him will be difficult but I can do it, she thought dreading the year to come.
