Serve No Man But Me!
Freya walked into his room to start her first duty only to meet it empty. Vincenzo had left just a few minutes ago after a brief call from his underground guards.
She stood for what seemed like minutes, analyzing the room to find any thing faulty and have it arranged properly, but the room was looking well kept like no one was staying in it. It’s obviously clear that Vincenzo is actually a neat man.
She turns back to leave the room, meeting Kelly at the door. “Good morning..” she greeted.
“Please, hold your greeting to yourself.” Kelly blurts out. “What the f+k are you doing in here?”
“I came to arrange the master’s room but it seems like there’s nothing to work on. Maybe, I’ll just come back some other time.” She wasn’t in the mood to exchange words, and looking at Kelly’s face, she looks like one who loved unnecessary cases.
“So you feel you can just walk in here however you like because you’re some kinda personal maid or what?”
Freya didn’t reply to her. She felt like she was only being annoyed Vincenzo had let her out of the cell.
“Do you think being his personal maid will change every thing?”
“I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.”
“What makes you think working as his maid gives you the freedom you want? As long as you stay under this roof, you will remain a murderer to every one of us. So don’t get high hopes yet because he let you out of that cell, it’s only a matter of time.”
“I never asked him to let me out of the cell, and I don’t mind walking back in there. Just in case you don’t know, my brother murdered his cousin doesn’t make me a murderer. I am not my brother, that’s two different things.” She said as a matter of fact, walking out of the room.
When she did talk about walking into a new phase of life, Freya wasn’t only referring to Vincenzo, she also had Kelly in mind.
Kelly was vexed, she rained insults on Freya for walking into her life. She wished Vincenzo would just have her locked again in the cell, or probably just let his father have her instead.
She couldn’t contain her anger, so she decided to pay Mr Polio a visit in his room. She was going to talk about coming up with a plan to eliminate Freya as soon as possible. For no reason she has suddenly grown such level of hatred towards her, and having her any where around the house felt like torture to her skin.
She offered a knock on his door. “Who is that?” Mr Polio’s voice sounded from the inside.
“It’s me, Kelly.” She answered.
“Come in.” He ordered her in.
Kelly opened the door, making her way in. Mr Polio was busy with his laptop, he paused for a while, gazing at her from head to toe. “You’re Enzo’s girlfriend, aren’t you?” He asked.
“Yes, I am.”
“Did Enzo send you here?” He asked.
“No. I came on my own.”
“So, how may I help you?”
“It’s nothing much, just a little bargain with you.” Mr Polio was scared to accept her offer, he didn’t trust her a bit. He felt this was some kinda trap she was trying to lure him into.
“What bargain?” He asked.
“It’s about the slave, Freya Bred. Enzo has made her his personal maid, and I believe he has done it to keep an eye on her.”
“I thought you were his girlfriend, you should agree to whatever decision he makes.”
“I do, but not this time. I don’t trust that bitch a bit, she must have a purpose for letting Enzo appoint her as his maid.”
Mr Polio bursted into laughter. Kelly stared at him disgustedly. Was he making fun of her?
“I’m sorry but this is funny. You think there will be a new chemistry between the two of them?”
“Whatever. I can’t give her a chance to have him. I don’t trust Enzo when it comes to women.”
“That was the same statement his ex made when he met you.”
“Are you in for this deal, or are you gonna keep mocking me?”
“Well, as long as it involves me having her to myself, then yes, I’m in.”
Kelly smirked in victory.
“So what’s your plan?”
“We’ll keep watching, striking at an early stage will only create suspicion. I was thinking you should kidnap her, then we’ll both fake her death. We’ll make Enzo believe she is dead so that he won’t have her back. What do you think?”
“That’s a brilliant idea. Now I see why Enzo didn’t want to let you go.”
“But some one seems to be crossing boundaries.” She said, referring to Freya. “Let this be our little secret.”
“As you wish.”
*********
It was time for dinner, Vincenzo, Kelly and Mr Polio sat around the table. While the maids dished the meals, Freya served Vincenzo. She was meant to attend to only him.
While she was putting the porridge into his plate, she noticed his eyes were on her. At first she didn’t want to notice him, but then she found herself looking. As soon as their eyes made contact, Freya dropped the plate and spoon, leaving the dining room.
What she did just made Vincenzo smile. He has never felt this happy with her before. He felt aside from her being stubborn, there was a part of her that was quite comforting to be with. He had known she was trying to play the brave and courageous girl, but some thing about him made her calm. Some thing he has yet to know.
Kelly noticed it. She slightly moved her gaze to Mr Polio who likewise noticed how Vincenzo smiled at Freya. Freya on the other hand, made a stop to think, exhaling heavily. She didn’t realize she was looking at Vincenzo only to see those blue hazel eyes staring at her.
This was actually her first time complementing those eyes. Unlike other times, his eyes held no emotions but darkness.
This time, it was totally different.
