Alicia

"what's your name?"he asked and I concentrated on my food 

"Alicia sir"

"last name?"

"Robbins"

He said nothing again and we continued eating 

"hello!!"a familiar voice said and we looked up to see the girl that will clinging to him earlier 

"what?"she yelled and I flinched

"stand up"she yelled and I flinched 

She suddenly pulled my hair and dragged me off the chair 

"Cassie"master called and she turned to him angrily 

"leave her alone"he said and her eyes widened in shock

"I should leave her?..you are eating with a pet"she yelled angrily and he ignored her 

"sit Alicia"I bowed and sat down 

"well I got a call from Carl saying you were angry and we all know I calm you down am here to do that"she said with a smile 

"as you can see am fine"he said coldly and she groaned angrily 

"how did you become fine?"she yelled and I almost laughed 

How can she ask such a dumb question?

"leave my house Cassie"

"what?"

"you know I don't repeat myself"

She groaned and glared hard at me before walking out angrily 

We were finally done with the food and I paced the plates 

I washed them and returned back to still find him in the same position and he was just starring into space 

"sir"I called and he turned to me 

"am sorry if am disturbing but I think you should at least go up to your room to rest"I said with a shaky voice and he sighed 

"I don't want to"I nodded and remained silent 

I looked at his face and examined him 

He looks so cute and amazing 

His hair was styled in a cute way and he has the look that can make a girl drool 

I noticed I was starring for too long and looked away 

"sir"I called again and he looked at me 

"if you are bored I can tell you a story at the garden"I said with my heart beating so fast 

"what makes you think I will follow you?"

"I don't know sir"

"if you pull me up I will go with you"

He stretched his hand to me and I stared at him in shock 

I slowly held his hand and tried pulling him up but the hell 

He didn't move at all 

He suddenly stood up making me loose balance and my face hit his chest 

He suddenly wrapped his hands around my waist and hugged me 

I froze on a spot not knowing what to do 

He looks so broken and sad

I slowly lifted my hands up and pat his back gently continuously 

He sighed and I smiled 

He pulled away and walked ahead of me to the garden 

We got there and he turned to me 

"sit sir"I said and bowed

"on the grass?"

I nodded and he raised a brow at me which made him so cute 

Fuck what is wrong with me?

Am meant to hate him cause am his slave 

"okay"he muttered and sat down 

"so once upon a time..."

"hold on are you going to stand?"I nodded and he suddenly pulled me down making me sit beside him 

I hid my smile and looked away 

I continued the story and looked at the sky 

"there was this little boy who wasn't showed love from the start,everyone hated him including his parents which made him have a black heart and he was so heartless,he believed there was nothing like true love cause it was never shown to him,he became so mean that no one could tame his heart but unfortunately or we can say fortunately he met his soul mate,at first he didn't think it was his soul mate but with time the girl could tame his heart and he fell in love with her which caused them to live happily ever after"

I finished the story and he suddenly scoffed 

I turned to him confused

"why did you scoff sir?"I asked and he shook his head 

His much not of a talker 

He suddenly stood up and I did 

He turned to me and gave this look like he wanted to ask something but it felt like something was stopping him 

Hmm,maybe his ego 

"through out tomorrow after breakfast stay in your room"

"why sir?"

"do not question me,just do as I say"

"okay sir"

He walked back into the house and o suddenly smiled 

He is kinda too quiet but it was fun though 

I wonder why am smiling 

I giggled and walked back into the house 

The maids were back in the house and they all starred at me awkwardly 

Were they expecting me to be dead cause I don't get this look they are giving 

"I just hope he didn't harm her"one said to the other 

"whatever he does to her she deserves it cause we were told to leave the house and she didn't thinking she is some kind of a queen and she forgot the fact that she is just a mere slave"the one that hates me said and I just ignored them 

I already ate to my satisfaction so I entered my room 

I checked the time and it was just six in the evening 

I really sleep a lot this days 

I sighed and fell on my bed 

In minutes I drifted to dream land 

.

MORNING

I woke up due to the ray of sunlight that shone in my eyes 

I yawned and sat up 

I stood up from the bed and head to the bathroom 

I brushed my teeth and took my bath 

I was done and I got dressed in a black gown 

It had long sleeves and it reached my knee 

I smiled as the gown looked so good on me 

I packed my hair into a pony tail and left strands falling on my face 

I looked into the mirror and smiled 

I looked so good 

I was about to walk out and remembered what master said 

Funny enough I don't still know his name 

But he said after breakfast 

Should I go out or not?

But I have to eat 

Am so hungry 

As I thought about what to do,a knock suddenly sounded on my food and I wondered who it was 

"who is it?"I asked 

"Malia,open up"

I stood up and opened the door 

She walked in with a tray and placed it on the bed 

"good morning ma'am"I bowed 

"good morning how are you dear?"

"am fine ma'am"

"okay this is your breakfast and you can't leave this room until I come back here myself,we the maids are all going to leave this house and not return till further notice and you should also not leave your room cause it's really dangerous"

"I know ma'am,master already told me,thank you ma'am"

"ohh that's great,see you soon"

I bowed and she walked out 

I sighed and sat on my bed 

I opened the food and smiled 

Pasta and chicken 

I really love that a lot 

I ate to my satisfaction and finished the food 

I drank the juice there and smiled 

I lay on the bed and sighed 

.

HOURS LATER

I was feeling so bored and hungry and am not allowed to go out 

Fuck what am I going to do?

I feel like there is a creature eating up my stomach which is making me so hungry 

Okay this is what am going to do 

Am just going to go out and quickly pick up a snack from the fridge 

They can't see me right?

If the entrance to the living room's door is locked then  am good to good to go but if it's not then am willing to take the risk 

I just hope nothing goes wrong 

Oh God 

I breathed in and out and took in a deep breath 

I twisted the door knob and walked out 

I got to where I would pass and walked so fast 

"stop"a voice said and I froze 

"come here"the voice said and I slowly walked to the living room 

They were different men in tuxedos and my master sighed when he saw me 

Guess he is pissed at me 

"who is she?"a man looking a bit old asked him 

"my Pet"

"wow I never knew Pets were still pretty"another man said and the man that asked who I was earlier smiled

"I want her,am going to buy her ten million dollars from you"he said and my head snapped at him 

Buy me?

Wait will my master agree?

I really don't want to leave here and I hope he doesn't agree to this stupid offer 

He starred at me for a while and turned back to the man 

"she is not for sale"

"come on,okay I will pay twenty million dollars"

Wait is this man being serious right now?

Twenty million on me?

If he wants to waste money he should just give me 

Cause that money will turn my live around 

"like I said earlier Gerald she is not for sale,she is mine and if you want your own Pet you know where the auction takes place,this meeting is over leave my house"he said sternly and the man chuckled 

They all stood up and taking one final look at my master he walked out 

I stood on the same spot and bowed my head 

He is so mad right now and I can tell 

"I told you not to leave your room"his cold voice sounded and I gulped 

"am sorry sir..but..I was hungry"I shook and she chuckled 

"hungry?"he yelled and stood up 

"that hunger could have cost you your life,you think don't men won't kill you or you think am dumb telling you not to come out of your room?"he yelled so loud that it brought tears into my eyes 

I looked at him and he rolled his eyes when he saw I was crying 

I sniffed as the tear rolled down my eyes 

"me not touching you all this while doesn't mean I don't know what am doing so don't get comfortable in this house so you won't forget that you are just a Pet and nothing more,let it stick into your thick skull that this is what you are going to be for the rest of your life"

I closed my eyes tightly as the tears kept falling

He walked away and pushed me in the process 

I fell on the floor and cried 

He is right 

I shouldn't get comfortable 

Am just a Pet 

And that is what am going to be for the rest of my life 

He is so right but it hurts so bad hearing it from him 

It's actually my fault 

I should have just stayed back in my room and starve other than receiving insults 

I slowly stood up and wiped my tears 

I entered my room and fell on the bed 

Am not even hungry anymore 

I cuddled myself and cried my eyes out 

.

I don't know how long it has been but I think it's the next day 

It should be four days today or more that have spent here now 

I have been crying since yesterday and I look really pale 

A lot of maids has been coming to knock even Malia but I refuse to open up 

I just want to be alone 

I suddenly heard a knock and I ignored it 

"Alicia"I heard that same cold voice call my name and I sprang up immediately 

Wait he came here 

That means they reported me 

God am so dead 

"Alicia"he called again and I ran to the door 

I slowly opened it and he starred at me 

"good day master"I bowed saying good day cause I didn't know the time it was 

"today is almost over which means you have been in there for twenty four hours straight,get dressed in your Pet outfit we are going out and you have five minutes to do that,failure to do so you will get punished"he said sternly and walked away 

What the hell?
