Anne slowly opened her eyes adjusting to the brightness of the sun, she felt sore in her wrists and ankles, she then remembered what happened to her.
Tears started falling down her eyes, from a tear to a rainfall, she thought she had died in that flaming warehouse, remembering that gave her goosebumps.
She looked around and noticed this is not her room nor her mansion,this was more luxurious than hers.
"How are you feeling now?"she heard a deep husky voice and looked at the direction of the voice, she saw a dashing young man with a tray slowly approaching her.
The man sat beside her,his gaze was fixated on her as he dropped the tray,Anne moved back with restrained space between them.
"who are you?, and why am i here?,how did i get here?"she had some more questions rummaging through her head but she stuck with this ones, she barely breathe when she talked.
"eat first,you must be tired after all you've been unconscious for three days"Anne eyes widened in horror at her new discovery,three whole days,no wonder why she felt so weak, tired and hungry and looking at the food on the tray makes her more hungrier than before but she definitely won't cave until the man answers her.
The man saw her intense gaze on the food as his mouth twitch in amusement, she was clearly hungry but don't want to eat, but surprisedly, he found her stubbornness cute and fun to watch.
"If you don't eat,you might faint again and we don't want that,do we?"he asked, she carried the food and showed a angry face.
"since you insist and you'll also tell me why am here. I'll eat"crumpled with hunger, she gobbled up the food and drank the water with it as she burped. A blush crept up to her cheeks but she still maintained a stoic face.
"Am done eating,can i get the answer to my questions?"she asked feeling refreshed and energized.
"get some rest, I'll come back to check on you"he packed the plates and started walking to the door, he was clearly trying to ignore the question.
"I fucking rested for three days and you're telling me to rest again,are you trying to kill me. I was saved only to die in the hands of a strange man"she muttered the last sentence to herself and the man clearly heard her but choose to ignore her, he opened the door and closed it gently as Anne cried out loud.
She stood up with much effort due to her wobbly legs and walked to the door, she crossed her hands and prayed that it wasn't locked and as if luck was not on her side, the door opened on its own as the handsome stranger walked in.
Anne who wasn't expecting that sudden rush flew to the other corner of the room,her ankles became strained once more.
"ouch, it hurts"her face cringed in pain as she tried to stand up but end up on the ground again, just as she thought she would land on the floor, she was caught in a firm embrace, she looked up and saw the handsome stranger holding her in his arms and gently carrying her over to the bed, dropping her with care.
Anne was still in a daze,who is this man?,did he kidnap her or what?, and why is he being so kind to her. Everything about this man screamed mystery as she found herself guessing his background, she wondered which family would he belong to and if he's really from a prominent family,why hasn't she heard of him from any publications since he's such an eye candy.
She looked at his beautiful facial manly features, she had never seen anyone else like him but she felt she had met this man before, like a close relationship between both of them, she cleared her head of all these unrational thoughts,her deja vu is happening again, where she felt something that hasn't happened before recreating itself.
She broke out of her daze and fiercely stared at the man in front of her"this was all your fault, you know what i want to leave,i don't need the answers anymore"she started to get off the bed and the man didn't try to stop her as she took it as a go ahead.
"fine,go and find out what your sister will do when she finds out that you're still alive, she may not try to burn you alive this time but throw you off a cliff and watch you go right into your doom"he said with a calm but cold voice. His words made her hair stand as she froze on the spot realizing that he was right, she reluctantly sat back down on the bed with a quivering pout, thinking about her sister ruthless actions.
She couldn't help but let a tear slip from her eyes to her lips tasting the saltiness of the tear.
