Chapter 7 YOU ARE MY PROPERTY
LISA’S POV
I walked out of Gray’s room in anger slamming the door behind me. Anger was boiling up in me , I walked down the stairs and then out of the house. I entered my car and drove out.
I parked the car at the side of a road and angrily hit my hand on the wheel.
Who does he even think is? The Mr. Popular? Because everyone bows to him and he assumes he can treat anyone the way that suits him.
I won’t deny the fact that I’m so in love with him but that isn’t my mission. I’ll have to get my mission done and then I can focus on making him mine.
I wonder why he had to buy that whore. I’m very sure he bought her because no one can ever agree to live with him. He’s the Saddest!.
I thought he dropped the act already? Why now! Yes! It’s never possible for Gray to fell in love. That will be the last thing he’ll do, but I intend in making him mine, sooner.
LUNA’S POV
I locked the door behind me and stood at the door for a while, frozen.
I breathed down and then starts walking to my room after I was calm a little. Gosh! Who’s that girl anyways?
And why is Gray so grumpy!. He must be really popular, just sadly I’m not into this internet stuffs, I sure will know him if I own a phone or something.
I opened the door of the room the maids led me in first, shut the door behind and then sat on my bed
Gray…. That’s such a sweet name fortunately he doesn’t deserve it.
Argh! I really need some rest. My head itches alot. I stared round the room and wondered if it’s mine. Of course it is, the maid had laid me in here.
I stood up and walked to the closet, They were tons of beautiful clothes there. Expensive cloths. I smiled…
Maybe there’s a hope of me being happy again in this house.
The door opened and a maid walked in. Different from the maid earlier. Argh! There must be tons of maid in the house.
“Good day ma’am. Please come down for dinner” She said.
“Okay. Just some sec, I’ll be down there” I said.
“Okay. I’ll by the door” she said.
I nodded and watched her walk out. I quickly opened my bag and brought out the necklace my dad had gifted me on my 15th birthday. I kissed it and tried not to cry.
“I promise you father. This won’t last for long” Just so I thought, this won’t last for long.
I wore the necklace over my neck and then walked out. The maid was standing at the door, she smiled at me and bowed then led the way downstairs.
I saw Ms. Elsa sitting the table but she immediately stopped when she say me.
“Dinner will be ready in 10 minutes” She said looking at the clock.
“Follow me” she added and I nodded.
She walked out of the dining room and I thrilled behind her.
“This is the way to the kitchen, The door beside it is the store. This is….” Ms. Elsa went on and on , taking me round the house.
The house is amazingly beautiful. Everything seems so perfect and neat too. He sure has a good taste.
“Uhm.. ma’am, I’m tired, maybe we can continue later” I told her.
“We’ve just walked for 3 minutes. Not even quarter of the house had you seen” She laughed.
“Alright, let’s just walk back to the kitchen and talk.”
“Thank you” I said.
Ms. Elsa led the way back to the kitchen and I thrilled behind her.
“What’s your name?” She asked me.
“Luna. My name is Luna” I replied.
“Luna, that’s mean Moon right?” She asked and I smiled then nodded.
“That’s such a beautiful cute name” she acknowledged.
“Thank you”
Hearing her saying the name “Moon” made me think about my Dad . He was the only one who calls me Moon and I wonder if every other person knows Luna means moon too.
But Ms. Elsa just said the name. I smiled, we are at the kitchen now and I was sitting down while Ms. Elsa was arranging the cooking pans.
“So, How did you end up here? I mean what condition put you into this mess? You’re too little for this, Don’t you have a family?” Ms. Elsa asked.
I sighed. “I know, I’ve my dad and my stepmom” I replied.
I hate the fact that mom had to be at the end of stepmom. She doesn’t deserve to be called any word that had mom in it.
“I see, so why are you here then?” she dried her hand and sat next to me.
“Well… My step mother, Cora. Sold me out to a woman called Yolanda. And then , next , I ended up here” I said.
“I see. What about your father? Didn’t he say anything, I mean, didn’t he stop your stepmom” She asked.
I nodded negatively and smiled, a sad smile. “He couldn’t. He tried, but I think there’s something that made him accepted for me to be sold out”
Ms. Elsa nodded and patted me. “You must have gone through a lot for your age.”
“Uhmm… I want to ask, what is Gray like?” I asked him.
She sighed and stood up, I watched her walked to the fridge and came out with a cup of cold water.
“Here, have this” She says.
“Thank You Elsa” I collected the cup from her and drank the water.
My body responded. “How does she know that’s exactly what I just needed? Something cold”
“Gray is a good guy, If you’re on his good side” she said.
“What’s that?”
“Gray, is just not like every other guy. He’s not good and he’s not evil either”
“Mm” I nodded.
“Why is he always masked then? Even while he’s home?”
“I don’t know and I wish you’ll keep your mind out of it, the day you sees his face is the day you’ll die” She said.
“What!” I exclaimed..
“Yes” She nodded.
Literally I grew scared at the same time anxious. What’s so special about his face?.
“He kills?” I asked.
“Don’t see him like that, he won’t hurt you if you serve him well. How many months or years did you signed to be here?”. She asked.
“Month? Years?!” I questioned.
“Wait .. don’t tell me you didn’t sign anything? He just bought you?” She whispered and i nodded.
“Oh damn. Had he touched you? He once sent for you after you cleaned up…. Did he..? You know what I meant”
“No. He didn’t touch me” I raised my brow.
“You’re quite lucky. At the same time, I think you might be the one….” She whispered staring at the door.
“The one? How?” I asked anxiously.
“The one he…..”
“Ms. Elsa, It’s Dinner time. Uhmmm, Miss… Master sent for you.”
My heart literally beats faster again.
“Her name is Luna. I’ll introduce her to the rest of the maids tomorrow” Ms Elsa told the maid.
“I’m May!” The maid smiled”.
“C’mon Luna, You need to go and see him, He hates being kept waiting and you won’t like to be in his bad book” Elsa advised.
“Alright. Thanks” I said and walked out. May smiled at me when I walked past her.
As I walk down the passage, I can’t keep the thoughts in my mind away.
What does Elsa means by I meant be the one? Which one?. And those he touch other girls he bought? If yes, why hasn’t he touched me? He hadn’t even make a move.
Strange, I really need someone to clear my confusion.
I knocked at the door and his sweet voice told me to come in. His voice has a strong effect on me and badly I can’t help but fall for it.
“You sent for me” I bowed after I walked to the room.
He was sitting on the bed, His eyes were on me this time. I felt so Nervous, I could barely feel my legs as it threatens to disappoint me.
I just have to hold on, a little longer.
“What’s your name?” He asked.
Didn’t he ask me this before? Are we going all over it again. Well, I’d better act as a good girl, like Elsa advised. I won’t want to be on his made book.
“Luna. My name’s Luna” I replied.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
He nodded and remained silent for some seconds.
“If you don’t want to get on my bad book, just act like a good girl and keep my rules. Then be sure to enjoy your stay here” He said.
“Rules..? I muttered but I was sure he heard me.
He stood up, and walked to me. I didn’t move back, surprisedly , I couldn’t . He stood before me and this is actually the first time I’ll be noticing his height.
He’s tall and I look like a kid before him. I wonder his age, 30? More than that?”.
“Don’t reply my questions with I don’t know. Don’t speak while I’m still speaking.
Don’t dare talk back at me, or I’ll guess you hate your life.
Don’t hesitate to answer my question and don’t keep me waiting, in anything.
Don’t question me when I instruct for something. Don’t dare disobey me. And Do as I said, I’m your master… You are my PROPERTY!” he said.
