Chapter 20 - The Maid

••

Bella slowly opened her eyes as the sunlight entered her room through the curtains. Her vision was still blurry as she rubbed her eyes again before burrowing herself deeper under the duvet.

 

The moment she was about to go into deep slumber again, memories from last night flashed in her mind. She instantly sat straight up as she remembered what happened last night. Mr. LaRusso was the one who gave her first orgasm. Heat creeped up to her cheeks at the thought of his sinful fingers working inside of her. All she felt at that moment was bliss.

 

Quickly shaking her head, she slapped her cheek lightly. What was happening to her? She should've never felt this way towards Mr. LaRusso. He might be used to having this kind of feeling and she was sure that whatever happened last night didn't even matter to him. But it mattered to Bella. She wasn't used to it, and she wasn't the girl who will let anyone take advantage of her vulnerable state.

 

She wanted to be blissful, she craved happiness, she wanted to feel the euphoric sense of freedom but not this way. 

 

She pulled her knees up to her chest and folded her arms around them as she thought about the effect Mr. LaRusso had on her. It was so hazardous that she could lose herself to him. He was so captivating that no matter how hard Bella tried, she couldn't defy the fact that she wanted him to touch her as much as he wanted to. And she hated herself for that, she hated herself for having mixed feelings. She couldn't lose herself. She was working as a maid, and she needed to remember her place here.

 

Removing the cover from her body, she headed towards her washroom for her morning routine. She rinsed shampoo off her hair before washing her body properly and walked out of the shower.

 

Wrapping a towel around her body, she headed towards her bed and held up the maid dress to her eye level. The same dress was reminding her of his wicked touches, the way his hands roamed all over her body like he owned it, the way his finger circled around her pebbled nipple over the fabric. She squeezed her eyes tightly not to think about him anymore. She reminded herself that Mr. LaRusso was just trying to use her. She needed to ignore him no matter what.

 

Wearing her outfit of the day, she walked down quickly and headed towards the kitchen to see Sara and Leia were already there.

 

"Good morning, ladies," Bella greeted as she needed to cheer her mind.

 

"Good morning. I've good news for us!" Leia said excitedly before running towards Bella.

 

"What happened?" Bella looked at both Sara and Leia as if she had never seen Leia this loud before.

 

"The men had their breakfast earlier today and they already left for their work. That means they won't come until late at night! And that means we can roam around the mansion freely!" She exclaimed while jumping on her hills.

 

So, the men left. And that means Mr. LaRusso wasn't here too. Bella let out a sigh of relief, thankfully she didn't have to face him today.

 

"Leia! Calm down," Sara jokingly scolded her while doing her work.

 

"Okay okay!" Leia put her hands up as we all laughed together. "Let's go Bella! Let me give you a short house tour of this big mansion!" She said while pulling Bella with her.

 

"Don't get yourselves in any trouble girls!" Sara called out from behind as the girls ran towards their destination.

 

As Leia said, she gave Bella a short house tour of the big mansion which wasn't a short tour at all. Though Bella had been working here for many days now, she didn't get the chance to see the whole mansion. The mansion was bigger than she expected, though Leia skipped some specific places which were forbidden to enter. Except that, every corner of the mansion was heavenly beautiful and gigantic.

 

Leia was right when she said the men won't arrive until night. She was thankful that she didn't have to face anything embarrassing. All she knew was she had to ignore Mr. LaRusso just like that. So, after finishing her kitchen work, she spent a few minutes in the garden at night before heading towards her room upstairs.

 

She stopped dead in her track when the very familiar deep voice called her from behind.

 

"Did you miss me today, Bella?" There was a teasing tone in his voice. The man she was trying to hide from was right behind her.

 

Bella took a deep breath before running towards her room. The moment she was about to close the door, a strong hand stopped her. Bella tried to push the door close, but she failed.

 

This circumstance reminded her of her dark past. The past that was chasing her to death. The way she used to lock herself in her room when her drunk father used to come home late at night. When her mother was alive, she used to get beaten by him. And when her mother was no more, Bella was the one getting beaten by her own father.

 

Her blood ran cold in her body at the thought, she felt numb, her vision became blurry because of tears. She had no strength to fight as she stepped back from the door. She was trembling in fear.

 

The door burst open to reveal Lucifer. He didn't plan to get mad at his kitten but the way she was ignoring him made him angrier. He didn't think twice before grabbing Bella by her arms and pinned her against the wall. And to his utter surprise, she didn't even fight back.

 

"What were you trying to do woman? What did you think? That you could run away from me?" Lucifer gritted his teeth. Bella could see his veins popping out, his eyes were getting red and jaw tightened. That sight made her tears fall freely. She couldn't breathe.

 

"Or are you trying to defy the fact that you wanted me last night just as much as I wanted you? One thing you need to know is I don't take a woman against her will!" He growled.

 

"I can't-" Bella whispered which was impossible for that Italian to hear.

 

"Tell me Bella, did you enjoy what I did to you last night?" He kept asking.

 

"I can't- c-can't b-breathe-" Bella managed to say before totally breaking down. Sweat beads started to appear on her neck and forehead, her knees were giving up and she needed air. She needed to escape. All she felt was pain, everywhere. She needed to get out of the pain.

 

"L-Lucifer I -it h-hurts-" she mumbled. She was running out of breath.

 

 

"Bella?" He called out her name like it's a prayer.

 

 

That's when Lucifer realized Bella was having a panic attack.
