Chapter 5 of chapter 4 Back to him

Back to him......

They faces were so close to each other, his wrist rested magically on her waist. She could feel the warm breath coming out of his glossy mouth. She gulped at the sexy lips before her and swallow up. She wants to shut her eyes and allow her nervousness to display but she couldn't. Not to this man who's making  Isabella complained. That makes him an enemy to attacks with force and no stop. ..

"do you need a kiss to calm down?" He asked, place his lips  closer to her ears seductively.  

Lily widened her eyes, she wasn't expecting that. Isabella on the other hand was stunning at the scenes before her. Is her childhood that really teasing? 

"Get off me you pervert!" She pushed him away. He almost fell down but holds his ground. 

"You must be crazy for thinking me as a low self esteem girls!" 

"Wow, I'm really amazing. I would have to love stay more time with your lips but I have to get the blue eyes ones today maybe another time darling" he said seductively. Heating the girl head with more anger.

He looked on his watch, it was 30 minutes after 6. The afternoon ball party closed at 5:00, the girls walked to the garden by 6:05pm and now it's 30 minutes after that. He sighed, he add wasted more time due to the girls behaving. This might upset the Duke, he demanded Isabella presence within 5 minutes. He hates this...

" He wants to see you" he said, eyes still glaring on his watch.  Isabella heart skipped, she can hear the heartbeat of her heart clearly. The Duke wants to see her? 

"Who's that he that demand to see my friend?" Lily demanded, hands folded..

"I think it had nothing to do with you and you should you stay out of it" he warned

"Then Isabella's going no where" 

Marcus chuckled, this girl is more crazy that he thought. For his research about her, she was a very shyly girl. Who's couldn't stand up to her ground or live by her words. She was a pushed over by her younger siblings in the house. She couldn't suggested anything for herself. Now, she had the guts to acted brave in front of him. Ever since she had a dance to with the Duke, it seem the Duke have left some of his madness in her. She seem so different and not the same person she used to.

He choose to ignored her and faced Isabella. "You know he hates being kept waiting" he said... 

"Who that asshole?" Lily asked. " That can't wait"

Marcus smirks. " I think when you see him your lips will sieze" 

"Then let's go"

"Sorry crazy lady, he only demand the presence of her not you" 

"What..." Lily was cut short. " Lily's you don't have to worries. He's my master. I'm his handmaid. I have to go, see you later" 

"Handmaid... ? To who?" 

Isabella walks ignored her questions, she had to get to his chamber. She don't want to keep him waiting. 

"Sorry crazy lady, I would have liked to stay more but gotta go" he Left

Lily tried to call out to Isabella but it's was of no use. Isabella seem more worried as she walks, what possibly would have bought to this immediately summoned..

Lily knew by the looks on Isabella face that Master of hers must be dangerous and bad to her....

Unknown to them that a strange eyes was watching them in a hidden place. 

"So, you're the precious diamond" the unknown voice whispered and chuckle evilly. 

Isabella heart beats the more soon she gets to the his chamber door. She was afaird to knock. Even thinking of trying to open it.

"Seriously, after I call you the way here and you can't get in?" Marcus asked frustrating, watching at her nervous and fear state. 

"Marcus, did you know the reason he called me ?" She asked, sounding more nervousness. Her hands were hanging up close to the doorknob and was shrivering.

" Why should I know, he's the boss and I'm his second man in command. Besides, I'm not in his mind and knows what he thinks. 

"But don't you have a clue, even a little? You're the closest to him that I have seen since I step in" 

"Hmmm, that's doesn't means I'm his mind" he narrowed his eyebrows at her. 

She gets it, the master of the house would gets to tell anyone what's in his mind. She looks back to the huge door before her, should she knocked? Or wait a little more but waiting will only cause her more risk. She didn't know the reason she was summoned. So, the longer she keeps the more risk she takes. 

Marcus seem this woman has no clue of opening the door anytime soon. Even though he stayed there viewing her nervous nothing will happen soon or later. He do admired her nervousness that one thing that was cute about her. The way her eyes popped out in fear, wide in size, he loves it all. She seem more cute with that. 

"Still thinking?" He asked 

"Yeah" she nods. " Holy shit, you people are making things more difficult for me" he walks slight pass her and press on the doorknob, the door opened and he went in. Isabella takes a deep breath, blink her eyes twice, push her head side to side. 

"Now, you're ready" she murmur and step in..

The man was sitting sexy on a long delicate couch close to the large window which curtain were packed at both sides. 

"What keeps you so long?" His husty voice asked.

"....." She opened her mouth but her words refused to come out..

"I told you, she was scared. Maybe she had build up her courage" replied Marcus

She eyed at him. " Don't look at me that way, I'm only saying the truth" 

"You do have a lot of fun in the garden" The Duke comment, looking harshly at Marcus. 

"You know the reason why, the girl seem mad and psycho. Where on earth did she came from" 

The Duke rolls his eyes, and hissed. " I'm in pains and all you could do, was to hiss at me, don't worries".

"You have done what I wanted you to do right?" He gazed at him. " You can leave, I want some privacy with my handmaid" his voice turns cold, stimulated cold like the snow ice. "Okay, whatever" Marcus stood up and walked his way out but recently stops at Isabella front. " If him hurts you let me know" 

And she nods because the man icy face staring anxiously at her would let her said a word. Marcus dashed out. The girl stands in fear as his eyes continuously stares at her for almost a 30 minutes with slience. 

"Why haven't you restart work?" He finally asked, after been done with his view. 

"I...I start now, if you want" she stermmer,

"That doesn't answer my question, why... Haven't....you... restart....work.? He break down the words slightly.

"I... I'm sorry my lord, I have been busy with the other duties. Sorry I neglect your orders" 

"That's doesn't explain anything" 

She lift up face to gulped at him. Was he really serious? His mood was automatic change, it was cold and flame. His voice sounds even more scary. It was like fire and ice mixed to together. 

"You're going to be punished for that, that's one of the reasons you're my handmaid!" 

Quickly she went on her kneels. " Please... My lord, forgive me" she pleased mercifully, hands warped together. He looked at she for just some minutes with completely slience. Isabella was shocked that his voice were not heard again. She slightly gulped up and catch his cold face staring at her. 

Quickly she placed her head again, it was scary to looks at that face. Did anyone offend him that makes his mood this cold. She wonder as she prayed slient for her life not to been taken by him. 

"Stands up" his cold voice command, she stood slowly head staring at the floor. 

"I want your face on me!"  she looks up at him. And bet that dangerous smirk slid on the sides of his lips. He sure does love to see her humiliated right in front of him..

"Tell me what kind of punishment would you like to have. At least I'm giving you a choice to make" 

"Was that necessary my lord?" 

"No one give you order to make. I just asked you a simple question and deserve a simple answer" 

"Since my punishment was I didn't came to clean up your chamber that I should to. Then let's my punishment be cleaning the chamber today" 

He chuckled, that's mocking chuckled. 

"You think you have the right to make decisions." He stops and took his glass cup and sip off it, eyes strolling up and down on her. "That was quite a choice you know. But you're wrong" 

"Wrong about what?" She asked innocently,

He stood from his seat, close the distance between them. "That's I'm the only one who had the right to make a decision here. What happened and when it happens. Do you understand my little black lamb"
