After standing for more than 30 minutes, he dropped his tea cup and stood up only to glance me.

Damien do well to watch her, she stays here till I come back, he said and walked out.

The other maids gasped, all shocked from such punishment for being just 55 second's late.

I smiled bitterly knowing my days ahead are definitely going to be hell. Sometimes I couldn't just help but wish I had died with my parents.

Stay here till he comes back, your not allowed to move from this point, Mr Damien said pointing at the spot I'm standing. While some maid snickered and some had pity, Mr Damien face remained unreadable.

The scorching sun hit my face hard, my whole body burning from the heat not to talk about my feets that hurts so much.

Sebastian strode in grinning clearly gloating from my predicament.

Oops.... someone isn't having a good day he said as he slumped on the chair clearly enjoying the scene.

I rolled my eyes at the back of my mind, obviously I replied.

He's face darkened immediately his eyes spitting fire as he glared at me , the earlier grin no where to be seen now. He stood up coming closer to me, he grabs my neck pulling me much more closer to him our nose almost touching choking the life out of me. I struggled kicking tapping his hands furiously to let me go . Listen up girl, his voice drops, I don't know who you think I am but I'm definitely not someone you'll want to mess with, understood.

"Y...yes I understand". I struggled to say almost out of breath.

Then...he shoved away and I fell on the ground trying to catch my breath, my face flushed brightly.

I scrambled up to my feet immediately remembering I was on punishment.

At night Giny passed by , hey Trisha how are you coping, I smiled lightly, it's fine giny am okay. Don't say that, I know it must be really hard it's been over 9 hours and he isn't yet back, here take this she said snicking a rice cake into my hand. Thank you , I felt overwhelmed right now, my glistening with tears. Your welcome but I have to go now before Mr Damien sees me here, Ginny presumed hurrying off. Her actions made me chuckled she looks like a wet chicken right now.

I couldn't even remember how long I have been standing here before the butler came.

He's back, let's go in now, he uttered. I didn't even care again my legs hurt like hell the walk to the house was unbearable.

He wants to see you, where? In he's study he replied briskly walking away.

I got to the door of the study and knocked twice...still no response. I was about knocking the third time a voice from inside, come in he stated, his voice low but the power in it couldn't be mistaken for something else.

The study has a minimalist design all black expressing his dark aura with only a table chair and his working equipment nothing else.

If you don't want to test my patient then listen, his powerful voice resonated in the whole study.

Your a maid here and that aside you would be my personal maid catering for all my needs from now on....do you understand.

U... understood, I stammered.

Damien would let you in on the rest don't be late, he warned.

The night came to an end like that. I haven't even slept for 5 hours when I was woken up by Ginny.

Hey baby girl her sweet voice rang in my ear.

Good morning I replied trying to sit up properly.

Mr Damien asked you to meet him in the kitchen now.

Ohhh...I... I'm coming right away, I struggle to say running towards the bathroom before I get into another punishment.

Good morning sir Damien, I greeted cheerfully.

Hmmm.....he nods not even glancing at me.

Chop this, chop that , turn this and that was all he did since I came into the kitchen. All other maids were all busy like there's a war coming.

Today food for breakfast is banana waffled pancakes and coffee.

I was told to go and let Jordan know breakfast is ready but I was so reluctant but now I find myself standing at his door, my heart raced tremendously.

Come in he replied. I got inside only find him just coming out the shower, his hair still dripping water flowing to his neck, chest down to his waist. I gulped hard' forgetting I am not supposed to be finding the killer of my parent attractive.

What is it he's voice pulled me back, a hint of annoyance present in his voice.

Y..yes sir...I wanted telling you your breakfast is ready, not daring to look into his eyes.

Hmmm...get out he ordered.

Quickly I got to my fit and scrambled out before he changed his mind. I know to some extent how ruthless he can be.

The breakfast went well after he left, Mr Damien asked Lily the head maid to assign me to my duty.

So your Trisha.... Come with me, her little minions followed her like a puppet.

Here she dumped a pile of clothes at my feet .

What should I do with them?
