Anamika was sitting near the window in Massimo's big bedroom and thinking about what happened few hours ago. How can he control her body like that. She has never lost her control like this, she was always in control of her emotions and needs.
When he left, she cleaned and dressed up herself. She tried to open the door and window but it was locked. When she started banging on the door continuously, Samuel opened the door...
"Do you need anything miss?"
He asked in his monotone voice.
"Yes... I need to leave... Move aside... Let me go...?"
She said looking at him.
His eyes widened at her demand.
Massimo ordered Samuel to guard her and give her anything she wants but if she leaves then he won't be able to see the next day. 'One scratch on her and i will skin you alive...'
Were his exact words.
"I am sorry miss I can't let you go... I suggest you to please sit down and tell me if you want something else I'll bring it to you..."
He said and shut the door on her face quickly.
Anamika huffed frustratingly, she knew she can't escape, only he can set her free.
So she sat near the window looking out and thinking about him...
"Why don't he understand, why is he behaving like this... He is right, I want him too, my body craves for him but I can't, I can't love him, I can't trust him... I am scared... I don't want to break again... What if he hurts me, I can't survive that again, it will destroy me... It's been seven years and still my past is haunting me.
No matter how much I try to comfort myself that it's ok, you are free and it doesn't matter anymore, but somewhere deep inside me I know it does and it's still hurting. I am still healing from the wounds my own people carved on me and how will he react when he will find out how much broken and damaged I am. I can't just open my heart for him and show him my dark past. I am not that strong, I can't, what should I do. I don't understand anything and he is not ready to listen to me, he is so complicated..."
Nick opened the door and came in with food. He was worried that Massimo will loose his control and go hard on her. Samuel informed him that she tried to leave so he came to check on her.
She was so deep in her thoughts that she didn't realise he was standing behind her.
She was looking out of the window, her long hair waving on her back with the wind. Her tattoos were on display from her shorts and tank top. Her face looked like an angel and her blue eyes were glowing under the sunlight...
'She is beautiful no wonder this fucker is crazy about her...'
Nick thought.
He cleared his throat to grab her attention. She turned around and looked at him. He placed a tray of food in front her and said.
"Hii... I am Nicolas, Massimo's friend... I have brought you lunch, you must be hungry..."
He said carefully not wanting her to lash out on him because of his friend's stupidity.
"Hello... I am Anamika and thank you for the food nicolas..."
She gave him an awkward smile and broke their eye contact by looking out of the window again.
He didn't expect that, he thought she will scream, curse, create a scene and demand him to let her go like the rich and arrogant woman she is but it was completely different. She was not behaving like a rich arrogant bitch instead she was thanking him politely for giving her food.
He looked at her face carefully and she looked depressed, something was bothering her as he noticed the sadness in her eyes. She looked so vulnerable...
'maybe it's her real face under the facade of strong and brave woman...'
he thought.
"Anamika are you ok... Did he hurt you..?"
