Amanda's POV~"What are you doing? Urrghh! Let go off me!" I demanded as Xander pinned both my hands to the wall, staring sinisterly into my eyes. His piercing gaze almost felt like it was searching through my soul. I tried to make sure that my face didn't betray any vulnerability. I had known him for a long time and one thing I could assert was that vulnerability almost always brings out the predator in him. It's almost like how sharks are attracted to blood. His hooded hunter eyes peered through my thoughts almost like he was trying to sniff something out. "I'm your chef! You can't do this to me!" I revolted. A slight smirk appeared on his face and he began to chuckle. "Do what to you?" He asked, with a cocky look on his face, "I'm not even doing anything" he said."You're holding me here. Let go of my arms!" I demanded."Is it wrong for me to hold you captive when you were causing a ruckus in my house? And mocking me in front of my workers?" He asked, "That's defamation, you know
Evening time at Amanda's house. Her mom can be seen arranging the place and making sure it's well organized. She places the flower vases in the right positions and dusts all the furniture. Just as she was admiring her work, the doorbell rings...Amanda's mom POV~"Ding! Dong!" "Oh she's back!" I thought as I dashed to the door. My little baby. She must have been stressed today. Unlocking the door, I wind the doorknob, opening the door. The kids pounce on me almost as instantly as the door opens."Grandma! Grandma!" They exclaimed as they ran in for a hug. Sheesh! Talk about energy. I couldn't help but chuckle as I wrapped my arms around them. You would expect that they would be exhausted by now, having spent all day outside the house, but there simply was no sign of exhaustion as they let go of me and dashed into the living room, chasing one another like their lives depended on it."Good evening mom" Amanda's voice suddenly took my attention off them as I turned to take a look at her
Arriving at Melissa's mansion in his black SUV, David gets down, handing over his keys to one of the valets as he walks into the mansion. He is dressed in an expensive black suit and holds a briefcase in his right hand. David's POV~The house was relatively quiet when I got in. Where was everybody? While loosening my tie, I walked straight through the guest living room. I walked into the first living room."Babe?" I called as I slightly opened the door leading to the first living room. She wasn't there. "Hmmm, that's odd," I muttered. This was where she usually would be if she stayed at home. Perhaps she's in the other living room. "Babe?" I called again, as I twisted the doorknob leading to the second living room. She wasn't there either. "Then she's gotta be in her room" I thought as I headed straight there, climbing up the stairs to get there. Getting there, I pushed the door open only to see her on the bed, watching TV. My eyes rolled almost totally subconsciously as I stared a
At Xander's Palace Xander can be seen in his room getting dressed. He is wearing a black three-piece suit and is trying to adjust his tie while observing himself in the huge mirror in his room. Xander's POV~I didn't really plan on going to work today, but the directors had just requested a board meeting and frankly, it had been a while since I attended one myself without just sending Asher as a proxy. So I decided to go."How do I look Asher?" I asked Asher who was standing behind me with some documents in his hands. "Splendid as always sir" he responded, "Uhmmm, should I get the driver ready?" He asked."Sure why not? Get about ten cars ready" I said after which he picked his phone and made a call. Well, there was no time to dally. I had to have breakfast before leaving. I could already suspect that today was going to be a hectic one. How? Sixth sense maybe. Leaving Asher in the room, I hurried downstairs and straight to the dining room, where I took a seat. I rang the tiny bell
Amanda and one of Xander's mistresses are still alone together in the kitchen. Amanda is clearly wary of her as she looks at her with skepticism written all over her face. Meanwhile, Xander's mistress has a huge smile on her face. It's a clearly pretentious one as her eyes squint into oblivion.......Amanda's POV~"Xander?" I responded, quite in surprise as my eyebrows arched up in suspicion. I could literally smell an ulterior motive in her words. "Uhun" she responded."So what about him?" I responded with a shrug."Doesn't he just piss you off?" She asked in a tone that portrayed just how irritated she was by him, "His pride and arrogance. Pfft! He thinks he's on top of the world. Pretty obnoxious if you ask me" she added. I couldn't tell exactly what her intentions were but I was hella sure it wasn't something I wanted any part of, even if I did hate Xander's guts."He is quite annoying at times but what about it?" I asked with a nonchalant shrug. "You are quite self-composed" sh
With a sack over her head, Amanda can be seen tied up in moving van. Around her are about three guys all armed to the teeth with guns and they have masks over their faces. Cruella can be seen sitting on the seat just opposite the semi conscious Amanda. Amanda's POV~"Urrghh!" I groaned slightly as I felt a head splitting migraine. I couldn't really make out what was really happening at this point. I tried to open my eyes but it was all dark. Was I blind? I tried multiple times over and just as my consciousness was reviving, the memory of what had happened right after I met cruella on sixth avenue street flashed through my thoughts. Panic set in and I immediately realized what kind of situation I was in."Let me out! Help! Somebody!" I screamed frantically, kicking about as I immediately realized that I was tied up. Had I been kidnapped? I didn't know and I didn't even want to know. I just wanted to be free from this bullshit. "Help! Who's there?!" I screamed further until suddenly,
Gothic Throne roomAmanda's POV~Being forced to my knees by the guard behind me, I couldn't help but wonder who exactly was sitting in the darkened throne like area up the flight of stairs. The room was dimly lit by the candle chanderlier hanging by a chain from the ceiling along with a couple of golden multi-fingered candle holders with red candles in them, periodically distributed across the room."Hail my Lord!" The person in the black hooded garment, who had led me hailed the one on the throne. The voice sounded somewhat familiar, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. "Hail, oh Great one!" The other people in black hooded garments arranged in a straight line with us in the middle, responded in reverence as they worshipped the one on the throne. "What the hell is going on?" I thought as I tried to fathom just where I was and to whom I was bowing. "You may rise" a deep resonant baritone echoes through the cavern-like throne room. Everyone gets back uzp to their feet and the
Amanda's POV~"Free from Xander?" I thought. How in the world is that gonna be possible? Did this guy have any idea what he was getting himself into? Xander is the f*cking Alpha! Ain't nobody gonna be able to beat him."Free from Xander?" I asked, before chuckling a bit. Was this some kind of cosplaying show? Perhaps I was on movie set. I looked around in case there were any cameras. "They are probably all hidden" I concluded. There's no way any of these could be real. From the weird looking set to the bold confrontation of the Alpha. This all had to be fake. There could be no other explanation. "You find what I said funny?" He asked with a smirk on his face. "You guys, cut it out" I said laughing. I felt relieved, almost as if a huge boulder was taken off my shoulders. To think it was some sort of acting all along. "You almost gave me a heart attack" I added as I then looked at Cruella. On seeing her visage, I was a bit confused. Her face looked pale, almost as if she had died ten
