Emily watched as the trees and mountains were replaced by houses and buildings, the traffic was chaotic, she didn't sleep well and all that noise gave her a headache, her life would be a complete surprise and she didn't know what to expect, Ramires by her side said nothing, little by little the scenery changed, the houses became more luxurious in a green area, houses with high walls and distant from each other, Emily knew that he had money after all her stepfather was rich so surely the family would be too, the car passes through a huge gate with a garden and further ahead you could see a huge house.
He parks, there was a maid waiting for them, she received them very well, she seemed friendly, she only greets, her mourning was still at its peak and made her depressed, but she forces a smile.
She enters and inside the house was big but you couldn't see any more maids only that woman, her life would be like that now, empty, she hears steps behind and sees the maid greeting and when she turns around she sees that presence. She needs to look up, even having seen him only once she still remembered those eyes, it was Luciano, it had been 13 years since she saw him how he changed, he was a handsome man and those eyes that seemed to scare her, she receives a cold look but Emily is already sad enough and that contempt didn't help at all, he didn't seem to be sad about his father's death.
LUCIAN 28 YEARS OLD
Emily=I'm sorry for the loss of the ........
Lucian=show her her room..
He simply ignored her completely, didn't even look her in the eyes, she seemed invisible and she already imagined that she would receive that contempt, but even so she just wanted support or a hug, after all they both had the same loss.
Lucian=come Ramires.
Ramires gives her one last hug and goes with him to a private room, her life would be like that now, dealing with loss and contempt, if he didn't want her there then why did he accept her, that man didn't seem to have a heart.
Emily follows the maid up the stairs, passes through many doors until she enters a room, it was beautiful and with a beautiful view of the garden.
Maid=I'll let you get settled in, lunch will be served at noon.
Emily wasn't thinking about eating, she had barely eaten these days that was the truth, she didn't know how her life could continue, looking at the balcony she sees Ramires getting in the car and waving to her, so now she was alone, in that house there was an absurd silence, she hears steps in the corridor, it was heavy, stops at her door but doesn't knock, then continues on.
Emily spent the day in the room, didn't go down for lunch, she didn't feel hungry, everything there was unknown, until she hears knocks on her door.
Emily=come in..
Maid=lunch has already been served miss.
Emily=sorry I'm not hungry.
She leaves without saying anything else, she stayed there in the room all day, she had no more tears to cry or lament about what happened, they weren't going to come back because of her suffering, and out of tiredness she ends up falling asleep.
When she opens her eyes a cold wind was coming in through the window, it was already night, Emily takes off her clothes and goes to take a bath, lets the hot water run down her body, her body has always been well developed for her age, her body was beautiful, full breasts and a thin waist after all she was no longer a child, just too innocent.
She looks at herself in the mirror, that wasn't the cheerful girl she always was, she was dejected and her eyes red from crying so much, there was no way to avoid that, it was too much loss for someone like her, but she needed to pull herself together, she wraps herself in the towel and goes to the room, she was going to get some clothes when her door is opened brutally and she sees that man enter in a hurry, Emily holds the towel tight when he stops in front of her, she was startled and scared, Lucian almost kicked the door down and for the first time he was there looking in her eyes, practically invaded her room.
Lucian=if you intend to starve to death do it somewhere else and not in my house.
Emily felt so fragile in front of that tall and strong man, he didn't show sadness on the contrary, he seemed to hate her, his caramel eyes had a deadly shine.
Emily=I... don't....
She didn't know why but her tears were running down her face, he showed indifference, did he hate her so much, she wasn't to blame for what happened, she feels those warm fingers hold her chin.
Lucian=your tears don't move me at all.
Emily=don't you lament the loss of your..
She couldn't speak anymore, he increases the pressure of his fingers on her face.
Lucian=I lament many things but not the death of that jerk who traded family, and you for me are a stranger.
Emily=it...hurts..
She holds his hand trying to pull it away, so her towel ends up slipping and stopping on her hips thus leaving her breasts exposed, she sees when his eyes of surprise look at every detail, he seemed to examine, then covers them quickly, he releases her, Emily covers herself quickly with the towel.
Emily=if you didn't want me here then why did you accept me?
Lucian=dinner in ten minutes, come down.
He simply turns his back and leaves, that wasn't a request or invitation, it was a short and rude order, she had been there for a day and already hated him, there was no reason for that but she felt that hatred.
She wears something lighter, a dress, braids her hair and goes down, the dining table was beautiful, he on the other side sitting reading some papers, his empty plate on the side showed that he had already had dinner, at no time does he look at her, she sits and the food is served, she wasn't going to deny that it was delicious, she eats little but even so she eats well.
Maid=I'll serve dessert.
Emily=I don't want any, I'm already satisfied.
Lucian=you can serve it.
He completely ignored her pretext, and served, it was beautiful but Emily didn't feel like eating, then she sees him get up and come in her direction, leans between the chair and the table.
Lucian=don't make a fuss, eat.
Emily=you don't order me ..
Lucian=it's something I have no interest in.
She could see that he was holding her chair tightly, the veins in his arm showing, why did he care so much about her, she still didn't understand why he accepted her there, the inheritance she has the right to is only on her mother's side so nothing involved her stepfather's family, did he feel sorry for her even, and something that is difficult to believe, she didn't know why but she felt the crying coming back, these days she broke down in tears and didn't want to show that in front of a stranger.
Lucian=I already said that your tears don't interest me, did you cry like that when your mother destroyed a family.
Emily=I wasn't to blame for anything, and my mother she..
Lucian=and a whore who destroyed a marriage.
Emily gets up quickly, looks at him with hatred he wasn't going to disrespect her mother.
Emily=my mother is not that, if your father wasn't happy in his marriage it's not her fault, my mother made him happy.
She can feel his hateful gaze, but Emily wasn't going to back down, she wasn't to blame for anything, he could pour out his hatred on her but she wasn't going to dishonor her mother's memory.
