A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

HE HAD SEEN EVERYTHING!

Harold's eyes searched for the beauty with toffee brown hair and hazel eyes as he walked through the corridors of 'the great manor'. Instead of Ruth, he collided with Fannie.

Well... any woman was better than no woman!

"Fannie! How are you now sweetheart?" He smiled as if he was indeed delighted to see her well.

Fannie cursed in her mind and regretted walking that way. Pulling a fake smile, she bowed.

"I am very fine, My Lord!"

Harold stopped close to her, invading her personal space. He recked her up and down. The lust swirled in his eyes as his mouth salivated with the thoughts of his evil mind.

"Hmm... I can see that. We should see how fine you are, should not we?!"

He ran his finger on her bottom lip and leaned down. He was about to take a further step when he was stopped by a commanding voice.

"Harold!"

Sucking a deep breath, Harold clenched his jaw. Putting a smile on his face, he turned around to meet sharp grey eyes.

"Good evening, My Lord!" He bowed.
