I rush downstairs in a haste, very worried about Pat. I seriously hope she wasn't dead because then I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if she died. Stephano wouldn't be that brutal I hoped in an attempt to convince myself she wasn't there.

After reaching the sitting room I saw some of Stephano's men standing in the room together with some of the maids. Stephano was also right in the middle.

I noticed Pat sitting on the ground gently holding her left hand. I noticed blood pooling from her arm down to the tiled floor.

I exhaled in relief noticing she wasn't dead yet, Stephano only shot her in her arms. I know that's serious too, but I'm glad it wasn't worse than that. I stand still watching everything happening.

"Take that as a warning, talking too much isn't allowed here. Never forget any of the golden rules" Stephano stated coldly.

"How could you do that?" I screamed at him.

"Don't." he says glaring at me.

"Pat did nothing wrong!" I screamed again.

He gave me a death glare for defying his order.

"Come with me," he said, his voice oddly calm it made me worry.

Having no guts to put up a fight since I don't want to be in the same state or worse state than Pat, I followed him wordlessly.

We entered our bedroom and I can't help but feel nervous after he locks the door.

"strip" he uttered.

That one word leaves me in shock and confusion, I wonder what he had in mind. I had never been fully naked in front of a man before so I was beyond nervous. Yes, I'm still a virgin.

"sorry?" I ask nervously.

"Do you want me to help you strip?" He raised one eyebrow and gave me a hard look.

I reply by shaking my head 'no' repeatedly. Still making no move to strip. He walks closer to me, then gently raises my face to make eye contact with him.

"Kitten… seems like you've forgotten I own you completely after you scribbled your signature on that contract" He says, his voice deep and husky. I could feel myself getting wet from just his voice.

"Thinking you could decide to just escape as you please, huh? Then you decide to disobey my orders right in front of my men. Did you think I would just spare you?" He asked.

"I'm sorry…" I muttered softly.

"sorry?" he repeats then chuckles.

"I swear I didn't mean to do that in front of your men" I replied nervously.

"Sure. You're mine Val, oh and this belongs to me completely" he stated, his hands suddenly palming my vagina.

I start to squirm at his touch, pressing my lips together so I won't release any moan unconsciously. Why do I always react to his touch?

"Are you a virgin?" He asks.

"No," I replied.

"Then why are you acting really shy, hmm? when was the last time you had sex?". he asks again. Why was he suddenly interrogating me?

I remain silent.

"Val?" He calls my name. "You're a virgin, isn't it?"

"yeah" I mumbled.

"Well that explains it… you won't be very soon though" he replies.

" Strip" he repeats again.

"Are you going to have sex with me?" I asked quietly.

He lets out a breathy chuckle at that.

"No Val, not yet. Now enough of the questions and take off those clothes" he stated.

With nervous fingers I removed the only piece of clothing I had on. A man's t-shirt I supposed is owned by Stephano. Pat told me earlier that she was the one who helped me change my clothes from the dirty dress I had on while I was kidnapped.

I was now left standing completely naked in front of him except from the lace panties I still had on.

I had fairly tanned skin, C cup boob size and nice round ass.

"Beautiful..." he whispers to himself, but I heard it making my face heat up.

Stephano's finger traced my pantie till it reached in between my legs. When he touched me - even just grazed my skin - I got a tingling sensation down there.

He pressed gently and rubbed two of his fingers over my pantie. I could feel my pantie getting wet. His finger had reached my clit.

He removes my pantie with my assistance then rubs his fingers over my already wet pussy, he then shoves his finger into my pussy and slowly moves it against the wall of my pussy. His fingers find my G-spot seconds later.

All this while I had been biting my lips tightly to prevent any moan from slipping out. I wasn't very successful in that since I let out a loud moan, surprising myself.

"You like that, don't you?" Stephano's husky voice whispered in my ears, his lips grazing my ears a bit making me shudder at the sweet sensation.

I just nodded as my breathing became heavier. At this point I lost my sense of reasoning and all I could think of was that I wanted more than just his fingers inside me. I wanted to feel his cock in me, filling my virginal walls.

I was trying really hard to control myself from screaming out.

"mph... " I released a soft moan feeling my pussy tense up, my breath becoming more rapid. I could tell I was close to cumming.

Just as I was about to relish that sweet moment, his fingers disappeared making me groan in annoyance.

"Getting greedy now, huh? That was just a reminder to let you know who you belong to, "he said, a mischievous smirk on his face.

He then picks up my abandoned panties, placed it in his pocket then exits the room.

Oh Fuck! He looked sexy when he did that.

I stare at his retreating figure in daze, processing the entire situation.

What the hell just happened?

And holy shit! What is wrong with me?

I think I might be more attracted to Stephano than I would like to admit.

Meeting his parents

Finally recollecting myself I ran into the bathroom still very naked.

Sighing as the steamy water from the shower runs down my body. I scrubbed my body thoroughly, mentally trying to erase the feel of Stephano's hands on me.

"I hate him"

"I hate him"

I chant quietly trying to get it into my head. I smile in relief feeling a lot better after I managed to convince myself that I hate him.

After I was done with my bath, I put on a simple summer dress. I wasn't going anywhere so there was no point dressing up. I walk out of the bedroom and skip downstairs in a rush, wanting to check up on Pat.

I felt guilty for what happened to her, yes I didn't shoot her but if I hadn't talked about it with Stephano she wouldn't have been hurt by now.

"Hey" I say to one of Stephano's numerous maids.

"Yes Mrs, how can I help you?" she asks.

"Where is Pat?" I questioned.

"She's having an off day because of her arm injury. She's currently in her room in the maid's quarters down the hall" she replied.

"Ohh… how is she now?" I ask again.

She gives me a quizzical look.

"I have no idea, why don't you go check" she replies barely maintaining her polite facade.

"How do I know her room?" I ask again, already hating the fact that I was asking a lot of questions. Well it's not my fault I have no idea how things work here.

"Again, I have no idea. I don't keep track of things that don't concern me" She replies, turning her attention back to the glass wall in the hallway she was cleaning.

Noticing the slight annoyance lacing her voice I decided to figure out Pat's room myself. Before I left I glanced at the name tag attached to her maid uniform, it read Bianca.

I walked over to the maid's quarters following the directions I was given. I smiled happily after noticing the room's were labeled, I knocked on the door that had Pat's name among the other names.

"Come in," I heard her voice say from inside.

I entered the room noticing the small size, there were two bunk beds inside with only Pat currently occupying the room since the others were working I believe.

"What are you doing here?" Pat asks in disbelief.

"I came to check up on you of course" I replied in a duhh tune.

"Aren't you supposed to be busy arranging your bags?" She inquires.

"My bags? what for?" I ask in confusion.

"Huh? Bianca didn't tell you?" she replies.

"I just had a conversation with Bianca before now and she didn't tell me about anything concerning bags… what was she supposed to tell me?" I replied, very perplexed.

"You will be visiting Stephano's parents this evening, I thought your bags would have been packed by now. Well that was if Bianca had informed you" she says.

I stare at her in shock at this new information. Meeting his parents? I wasn't prepared for this…

"I think you should go now, Stephano would be back soon, he would really hate it if you aren't ready just yet. sorry I can't come along to assist you and I doubt Bianca would be of any help" she mutters.

"Don't worry, it's fine. I'll just go and arrange my bags now" I said then make my way out of her room, rushing back upstairs.

I quickly took off my clothes as it was definitely not presentable for my first meeting with Stephano's parents. I settled on a gray long sleeved top and tight black pants. Nothing special, but at least I didn't look homeless. It's not like I was actually trying to make an effort so I could impress them.

After I was done dressing up and applying a decent amount of makeup, I hurriedly arranged my bags knowing I don't have much time left. I had no idea how long I was going to be staying there so I arranged a week's worth of clothes to be on a safer side.

I exhale in relief as I zip up my mini traveling bag, happy I was able to get ready before Stephano arrived.

Just seconds later Stephano entered the room. I quickly looked away as memories of earlier flooded my head. My face turned deep red as embarrassment rushed through me. I hated the way I moaned at his touch, how I craved it also.

From the corner of my eyes, I see him stare at me in confusion. Probably wondering why I was flustered when he didn't do anything.

"I see you are already packed up, let's go now so we can arrive by evening" he stated.

"Okay" I muttered.

I picked up my bag to follow him, still not looking at him yet. He stopped in front of me and placed his hand on my chin, raising my head to look at him.

"Are you really that flustered because of me now?" he asks while smirking.

"What are you talking about?" I ask playing dumb, forcing himself not to look away so I wouldn't boost his ego.

"Aren't we going anymore?" I ask after our long staring contest.

Without a word he turns away and strides out of the room. I walk quickly to follow his long strides. We entered the back of his SUV, his driver already waiting for us at the front seat.

I stare at the window watching as we drive past these unfamiliar streets. Not gonna lie, I was very nervous about meeting his parents. I heard Stephano is a complete version of his father except he was better.

From what I was told, Stephano's father was brutal in every sense. You wouldn't want to get on his bad side unless you are already tired of life. Why? because he would end you.

I looked at Stephano beside me to see him concreting on whatever he was doing on his phone. He looked calm and collected, but why wouldn't he be? it was his parents for god sake.

My blood runs cold as the car stops in front of Stephano's parents home. It was also a huge mansion similar to Stephano's own, although this one was less morden.

I follow Stephano as he walks to the front door. He rang the doorbell and the door was immediately opened by one of the housemaids.

"Welcome sir, you parents are waiting in the living room" the maid said curtly.

We walk inside and I freeze as I stare back at the cold faces of Stephano's parents judging my every move. They definitely didn't seem to like me.

This was going to be a really long day...
