chapter 3 escape

Hazel's eyes widen immediately she steps into the bathroom

She has never seen something this fancy.

She jumped around touching everything while the sweet smell coming from the bathtub that had already been prepared for her drifted her thought into a land of fantasy

I know this isn't my house but I will make sure I enjoy myself to the fullest

She deeps herself into the tube and the warm water crash upon her delicate skin while she shot her eyes close enjoying the pleasure

This man must be very rich

She wonders how the other part of his house will look

I can't wait to see the kitchen and lounge she exclaim excitedly

This is the only time she seem to have smiled genuinely

She walked back to the room with a conffy white towel wrapped around her chest

"What will I wear

She said scanning the room and her eyes landed on the wall size wardrobe that occupied almost half of the wall 

She ran towards it

She stood before two double doors, and swings them open and gasp as the wardrobe was complete made up of dark coverall dresses

"Tsssshhhh this man definitely has no sense of fashion she grumbles as she flip through the dresses

Her eyes landed on a folded dress that was kept separate from the others

It looks like a female wear

And in other to satisfy her curiosity she decided to try it on

Her mouth was hanging in disbelief as she looked at herself in the wall mirror

She looks like the female version of an elegant Grim reaper.

"OMG this is beautiful

She exclaim

"even though she looks like a female Grim reaper she still didn't want to take it off

I feel like it was made for me

Admiring her beautiful little curves she walked out of the room

She swing the door open to reveal a stern- faced woman in a maid attire

She stumbles backward trembling like a day old baby

She wasn't expecting to meet anyone and her unannounced presence at the door really scared her

"Are you alright Mrs Hazel

The maid said still maintaining her calm composure

"She knows my name?

MR Scott requires your presence downstairs

She said with her head bowed down

She noticed her stealing glances at the dress she wore

She could tell that she really wasn't please seeing her in it

She tried forming a conversation between them so as to get her opinion

" you know my name already but I don't know yours.

Am sorry my Lady,

My name is Emily

She said bowing down

Emily,.....

what a beautiful name she replied faking a friendly smile

This way my lady Emily said

Emily guides her through a web of hallways.

She makes a mental note to memorize the way,

But knows she will eventually forget

Emily led her to the palatial lounge and her eyes wide at the modern furnishings

Everything looks so expensive and big

She has never being anywhere this fancy

The lounge had high ceilings and huge chandeliers hanging at every end

While the walls were made of pure glass.

One could see the beautiful extra large pool at the center of the yard

Surrounded by a beautiful garden.

She walks close to the window and leans towards it admiring the beautiful view

Emily looked at her childish behavior and smiles

"Don't lean too close or you might break it

A familiar voice said drawing her attention from the window

Are you always this mean

She walks close to him with her head kept high.

The last thing she wanted was for him not to sense her fear

Scott eyes widen as his eyes piece million holes into her body

Did you buy the dress for me Hazel said when she noticed how lostfully he was looking at her

"NO that dress belongs to my mom.

He lied,

"Who gave you the permission to touch it

His voice was mixed with anger and rage

" This was the only female wear I saw in the closet.

You weren't expecting me to walk around your house naked

"That would have been better

He said in a low tune

"Don't worry I won't ruin your mother's dresse

I promise to keep it back before leaving

"Master the food is getting cold Emily interrupted

Hazel smiled widely immediately she heard the word food and ran towards the dining excitedly

Scott smirks haughtiness, his dark smile both stunning and aggraviating

My life is going to be fun,

She really looks good in that dress

He grumbles and make his way to the dining

Hazel was already filling her plate with different varieties of meat and vegetables

She somehow looks very comfortable in a strangers house

"Dont you think that is rather too much for a guest

He pulls out a sit looking at her closely

Hazel didn't seem bothered as she added more meat to her already full plate

"I have never seen so much food in my life

I need to eat as much as I can

I can also help in cleaning if you led me pack some food for my friend

She said filling her mouth with junk slices of beef

Scott's mouth twisted, and she can't tell if he's suppressing a smile or a frown

"You can have everything if you accept to married me

The words left his mouth as he locked eyes with her

Hazel pursed for a minutes trying to read meaning into his words,

"Do you propose marriage to every stanger you bring to your home

She asked giving him a stern look and he twisted his palms under the table

Thank you for the warm welcome but I will like to take my leave she said standing up and giving him a warm smile

You can't leave me he stood up abruptly making her move backward in fear

Scott steps closer, his presence bearing down on her like an anchor.

Hazel you need to get out of her she murmurs scanning the lounge looking for an exit

Shoving past Scott she makes a break for the door
