Episode 02

HIS POV......

In the security room, I take a seat at the desk. And boots up the laptop, my eyes scanning the live feed from the mansion's security camera. I watch intensely as she sulks around her room, her arms crossed And face flustered with angry. A cruel smiles plays at the corner of my mouth.

Suddenly her phone rings, she picked up the call. My eyes flicked to the screen of my laptop. Where I see her picking up her phone and putting it to her ear. My brows furrow in disapproval. I'd taken the liberty of installing a listening device in her room. So, I could keep ear on her conversation. She started talking to her friend. "Hello lily".......

                 after a long pause she replied she will be there at the party and was planning to sneak out. My expression flashed with rage and frustration. She was about to get in the car when, my voice suddenly booms through a hidden speaker in her room. "Don't even think about it". She freezes realizing that I've been listening to her conversation. I continue, my voice cold and menacing, "get back in your room".

She was being stubborn, replied in her childish "Nooooonooooo, I want to go to the party". I stand up from the security desk. My eyes locked on to the camera feed showing her attempting to sneak out. I quickly make my way to the door unlocking it with a key card. Stepping out of the hallway. "I said get back in your room NOW". She flinched at my outburst almost tears gathering in her eyes, but I avoid it.

I reaches my room in seconds, my pace shift and deliberate. I throw open the door, my face a mask of anger. "Back in your room NOW". I grab her arm, dragging her back inside and slamming the door shut behind her. "You're not going anywhere".

I grip her chin tightly, Forcing her to meet my gaze. "Look at me, you're grounded. You're not leaving this mansion. Do you understand?". My voice low, dangerous. I lean in closer, my face inches from hers. "Say it. Say 'I understand' ". She spoke back stuttering, her voice slow and soft. Almost like a whisper, "Y-yes y-yes I-I I-I u-understand".

I grip on her chin tightens. My eyes flashing with anger. "Good and to make sure you don't pull a stunt like that again, I'm taking your phone". I reach into her pockets. Pulling out her phone. And stuffing it into my own pocket. She asks in a desperate voice like an almost like I took her life with me,"NO not my phone please". I chuckle in my mind. But soon restrain myself from that thoughts.

"Yes your phone". My voice brooks no argument. "And if I find out you've been trying to contact your friends behind my back, you'll been confinement in your room for a month. Understood?". She pouted at my words. She can sulk as much as she wants, but I can't put her life in Danger like that.
