Master Lucius II

"No don't wake her up" a deep voice stopped the maid, who wanted to wake the red haired frail looking lady who slept on the swinging sofa in the left corner of the room

' such guts ' Lucius smirked looking at the lady named Adinah, he wouldn't want to disturb her, because he had somewhere important to go to

Lucius walked out of the house, and picked one of his cars, today he didn't let any driver drive him out, he did the driving himself

He immediately drove out of the mansion with maddening speed, after hours of driving, his car finally came to an halt in a very secluded area.

He walked up to a small bungalow in the area, he knocked for a while, and he saw the door knob turn slightly, and an old man with white hair stood on the entrance, with Windsor glasses on the bridge of his nose, the man would be in his late 60's fully looking at him

" Mr Lucius" The old man said as he let Lucius in with a gentle smile playing on his face

The Old man room was neat and had sweet scent of ginger tea wafting from it

"What brings you here again" they both took a sit opposite each other on the chairs present in the room, a tea cup sat on the table in between the chair they sat in

"Something is being happening Sage, wanting to come to you since when I realized it, but I couldn't because I was busy" Lucius said as his face held a disturbing frown

"Then my ears are down for you Lucius, what had happened" The old man held Lucius in his curious emerald strained eyes as he sipped the cup of ginger tea on the table, and placed the cup back gently

"I found this woman who I could touch wi.. wi god" he held on his head, as if he had a throbbing head

" Relax Lucius, now try speaking calmly and calm down" the old man said in a reassuring smile

Lucius gave out an heavy sigh 'anytime he had that wicked woman of his step mom in his discussion, he was always filled with wrath'

His hands shook in anger as he tightened them together in fists " I met a lady who I could touch and not see 'her' face on this particular lady" the her referred to his step mother

" When you say touch, like sexu... "

" NO" Lucius growled out glaring daggers at the poor old man who chuckled lightly " Not that" he calmed

"Okay, so you mean you touched her and didn't see your step mom's face on her" the old man asked and Lucius nodded " have you tried touching other women, to feel if your illusions had finally gone"

" Yes, when it came to me that I could touch the girl which I hadn't realize earlier, even when we had crossed not only once, I decided to experiment on my maid, who I almost killed, if not for my Butler who had saved her from my hands" he brought out a cigar from his pocket

" Drop that Lucius" the old man warned and Lucius hissed frustratedly as he deeps the cigar back into his pocket

"You need to really quit smoking" the old man warned

"That if you want me dead" Lucius replied back

The old man shook his head and continued "That one good side, have you come to meet this girl when you where in the middle of the trauma, like I mean when you where young" The old man asked

" No, we just met" he replied

"That a good process"

"Good process you say, with only just one female, I can't kill or harm" Lucius asked in raised brow

" What, it a progress, don't you like it, at a age like this, and with a fame like yours, you are meant to be with one or two heirs, but you have none because of a trauma, you need to real..." Before the old man could finish his witty chats, Lucius had barged out of the house and left the old man's door open, as heavy wind pushed pass inside

"What a temper" the old man chuckled as he went to lock his door

Adinah stretched her limbs on the sofa, and her eyes flew wide open, when realization hits her, only to see a man's face close to hers

Her body jerked back in shock, seeing Lucius Brown sinful face close to her's, with a smile of mischief playing on his lips

Her face flamed red in embarrassment, when she realized she had made a bad impression of falling asleep on her first day of work

She could only pray she hadn't drooled over her face as she slept

She blushed lightly, with how Lucius face was close to her's, and how he continued staring at her face, with her back which pushed into the sofa as if she wanted to get swallowed by it "Am sorry Mr Brown's, but am uncomfortable with this position" she said sheepishly, hoping he would move away from her, only to feel him inch closer towards her

'oh God, why is it this suffocating'

"What about this position" the man asked like an alive robot, Adinah could only wish for the sofa to really swallow her up

She stared at his face, and her crazy self for a moment stared at his tempting lips which was only a thumb away from her, she quickly swallowed and looked back into his hypnotising eyes.

She slapped herself in her head, for her perverted self to get a release of her, but what to do when someone as gorgeous as daylight was just inches away from her

' stop it Addie' she shook her head to ease the tensions

He finally raised himself, and she eased a sigh of relief, his once mischief filled face, was covered with layers of ice again

'How well can this man switch emotions ?' she asked herself as she quickly stood up and straight in front of the humanoid

"Well well Miss Cadell, what an impressive way to come asking for a job" he said sarcastically as he sat on the swinging sofa which was behind her, and she quickly moved away from it, standing in front of the man

'how did he know her last name' she asked herself, 'this man would be the death of her, one day'

"Am really sorry Mr Brown, I was seriously dog tired, I promise it won't happen again" she gave a little bow, to the man who swung himself in the chair slowly with an expressionless face

"I hope you have had a rethink about the 'My Maid' thing Miss Cadell " Lucius asked her again

" Yes Mr Brown, and I would start working from today, that if you don't mind , I had even brought my things, to show you I really am prepared for this" Adinah said in a serious face as she brought her baggage to her side

Lucius chuckles, standing up from where he sat and started clapping his hands together, walking around the petite lady, whose hawk like gazes travelled with his movements

"What an energy you possess" He said

"Thank you Mr Brown" She said, and watched how deep line set on Lucius face

" Hmm hmm" he hummed in disapproval "I think we need to get rid of that 'Mr Brown ' calling of yours" he said tipping his Chin up with his fingers, like a detective, a drop dead one to be precised, and Adinah heart almost lost it beating gears

'Ady' she called out in her head 'think straight' she stylishly moved her hands to her cheeks and gave it a little squeeze

"What do you think we should change it to" he asked with glistening questioning sapphire eyes on her

" Master Lucius" Ady said "or Boss, or just plain master" Adinah stated, waiting for his reply

" I think master Lucius is better" he said and giving a nod of approval

" Oh yes master Lucius" she whispered.

" Let get you to your room red" He said, and ushered her to come with him, Adinah didn't know why, but she felt strong gazes on her, not only one, but it felt as if eyes where drilling holes on her body, before she left with her new master, she looked to a far corner at her right, and caught a blonde lady staring at her, which she was sure was one of the workers of the mansion

When this particular blonde saw Adinah had caught her gaze, she quickly pretended as if she wasn't

A sigh escaped her lips, as she walked behind Lucius, whose broad back was facing her
