Chapter 13
It's been three weeks since Andressa was brought to the island. Three weeks since she last saw Kael. Three weeks since she was shut off from the world, she has been kept a prisoner in a mansion hovering a cliff.
She was looked after as if she was a princess all her necessities met. Maids were there to clean her room, make her meals and to assist her in anything and everything, it became a burden to her. She couldn't even breath in this house peacefully. Though she was provided with all the luxeries a woman could ever ask for, she is still a captive, alone, and miserable.
She was not allowed to leave the island, she was not allowed to wonder afar from the premises. If she wish to take walk a guard would be following her and above all she had no body to talk to. The maids would only answer if she questioned them, the guard who followed her would simply nod his head for 'yes' and for 'no. She only heard a human voice when she watched the T.V Everyday was the same,Andressa got so distressed gradually she started talking to herself.
Kael was true to his word, he made her life miserable, he is killing her interanally every single day. How long could I hold on Kael, you will make me take my own life someday! is it what you have in your mind. She had questions a ton of them, but he was not there to answer.
It will be christmas in two weeks and her birthday day before christmas. Her family celebrated her birthday on christmas eve every year. Andressa had plans for holidays. She was going to buy Romano a nee guitar and she had already bought the gifts for mama and papa.
Now she will never be able to give those to them. Tears flowing down her cheeks when ever she think of her famiy. Alone,sitting on the window seat of her room she cried and cried looking out at the ocean.
That's when she heard the sound of the motorboat. She stood up focusing her eyes at the speeding boat and she saw him. He is coming back,Kael is coming home.
Andressa hurriedly went to the bathroom and splashed cool water to her face. Looking herself from the mirror she said to herself.
"Andressa confront him! If you don't do it today you won't do it ever"
"Show him that you too can be cold and angry, you don't deserve to live like this, caged in this mansion."
"It's now or never"
"Good luck"
She waited for him to come and see her. Time goes by.Five minutes, ten minutes.She is pacing in her room nervously waiting for that demon of a man to show up but no he did not come.
"Avoiding me huh mister. I'm not going to let you get away from me that easy. You married me and you shall live up to it" Andressa rushed outside of her room searching for Kael.
She went to the kitchen and got to know from a maid that Kael is in his room and that he also requested not be disturbed.
"Do not disturb,my ass" saying this out loud Andressa rushed toward his bedroom which was on the third floor.
She took a deep breath as she came to his door. The courage that she had earlier seemed to melt away and her knees wobbled. "Don't be scared girl.He is just as human as you are. Go ahead,it's now or never" she said to herself knocking on the door.
Silence, so she knocked again. Waiting for a few seconds. She opened the door slowly ajar and popped her head inside. Kael was not there. Andressa entered the room closing the door behind her. She was curious to know how his layer looked like chuckling lightly at her own thought. She wondered inside. It was all contemporary,nothing like she imagined. She had imagined a majestic four posture bed and large lounger chair,stuffed animals hung on one side of the wall and a recliner chair placed by the fire. Different weapons hung on the wall.
"wow this is something"
The room was decorated in earthy neutral colours with minimum number of furniture. She sat at the edge of the bed wondering her eyes at every corner of the room. It was absolutely stunning for man of his nature. She hardly thought a killer with a stone heart would have a taste for modest interior. Andressa noticed the only thing lacking in the room just as it did in the entire house. There were no photographs, none from his childhood, parents or family which was rather odd because a normal person would have at least one single photo in their homes. Well this guy is not normal now is he
She walked to the balcony through the floor to ceiling glass door. It was a huge balcony with an astounding view of the riviera. One could see the island extravagantly from either side of the balcony. It was made for a perfect view of the land and ocean. There was a telescope setup " so the devil watch the stars" she chuckled.
She went to far edge of the balcony and leaned over to take look. "Wow" she took a quick step back. Her heart pounding fast "Leap from there and no coming back" she told her self. She walked back inside seeing his coat draped over a chair. She traced her fingers lightly on it.
"Missed me,Honey" Kael said to her
Oh shit, Andressa shut her eyes tight not out of fear but out of embarrassment. Kael just caught her touching his coat. Do something Andressa, don't let him humiliate you for this.
"Uh, you wish" Andressa said, sounding displeased.
