xv.
In the morning I wake up around eight. I sit up and stretch as I look around. This wasn't a dream.
I'm actually still here. In this beautiful room. I'm not dreaming. It's real. It's all real. There's a knock on my door and I jump up.
What if it's Roman? I immediately rush out of bed and walk to the door. I try to fix my hair and open the door smiling.
When I see that it's not Roman and it's the leather jacket guy from last night I hide myself behind the door because I'm in underwear and bra.
"Sorry." I say with a blushed face. The guy clears his throat as he looks at the floor. "No forgive me ma'am for bothering. The master will wait for you downstairs."
He walks away and I close the door behind. As I'm walking to the bathroom I notice a gift bag. Last night I didn't see a gift bag so I grab it and open it.
I take out a gorgeous purple dress and some purple heels. They're stunning and when I see the price tag I almost die. This dress was a lot of money. Roman must've left it for me.
After I take a shower and get ready I start heading downstairs. I remember where the kitchen is so I walk there.
When I walk in I see two plates on the table but no one is here. I'm looking around waiting for him to walk in but he doesn't.
I take a seat and wait patiently. A few minutes go by and I hear footsteps approach me. I grin as I get up.
Before I turn around I take a deep breath. When I finally feel him standing behind me I turn around and wrap my arms around his neck.
When I see who it is I almost flip out. I let him go and step back confused. He smiles showing his perfect straight teeth. "Hello Nikki."
"Rollins?" I ask as he smiles bigger. "Well I see you're not excited to see me dear." He says as he takes a seat on the table.
I'm waiting for Roman to walk in or something but no Roman. "Aren't you going to eat your food?"
I sit down and look at him as he starts eating. He looks up and glances at me which makes me feel intimidated.
"Sir, where's Roman?" I whisper. "Roman? Why would Roman be here?" He laughs. "Well... I was told-"
"This is my house. You're living with me not with Roman." He says cutting me off. My mouth goes dry and I don't know what to do or say.
"But..." my voice trails off. "But what? You wanted Roman? Too bad." He says as he continues eating.
Why would Lana lie to me? Why would she tell me I was living with Roman when I'm not? Why did that guy lie to me too?
"Why didn't you tell me? I was told I was coming to live with Roman." I say looking down at my full plate.
"Would you have come if you were told it was me?" He asks. I stay quiet pressing my lips together.
"Exactly." He says. I finally look up but he's eating and looking down. I pick up my fork and start eating even though I'm not hungry anymore.
All of this just took me by surprise. I need to talk to Lana and ask her what exactly happened.
"Ambrose." Seth calls out. The guy with the leather jacket walks in. "Yes sir?" He asks. "Take the lady to shop. Buy her whatever she needs and desires."
Ambrose- like Seth called him- nods his head obediently. "I have to go. I'll see you later love." Seth gets up from the table and leans down whispering in my ear.
"By the way that dress looks beautiful on you." His voice sends shivers down my spine. "Thank you sir." I reply quietly.
He walks away and I stay quiet sitting down. My brain still doesn't comprehend what just happened.
"Ma'am?" Ambrose says. I look at him and he glances at my plate. "Are you done?" I nod my head and he pulls out the car keys. "We should get going then."
•••
Living in a fancy house is my dream. Riding in fancy cars with a chauffeur is my dream. Shopping- knowing that I can waste any amount of money- is my dream.
Right now I'm not enjoying my dream as much as I thought I would. I've bought some clothes and necessary stuff but I can't seem to enjoy of all this.
I'm living with Seth. Not with Roman but with Seth. Does this make me Seth's girlfriend? His wife? O
Why would he want me to live with him? Considering that Roman and I have a thing. Lana said he would kill me... kill him.
"Are you okay ma'am?" Ambrose asks. I nod my head as I bite the inside of my cheek. "Okay ma'am. If this is all that you're getting we should get going."
"Why did you lie to me?" I ask bluntly. He furrows his eyebrows together. "Excuse me?" He's holding my shop bags with him but he still manages to open the door for me.
"Why didn't you tell me you worked for, Rollins." I ask as we head out to the parking lot. "With all your respect ma'am, I had no reason to tell you who I worked for."
"Yes you did considering I'm living with him." I say a bit annoyed. He looks me right in the eyes, "You're just going to have to ask him yourself madam."
He unlocks the car and I get in angry. I'm so confused and my thoughts are all jumbled up. Ambrose gets in and buckles up.
"Can you take me to see Lana?" I ask turning to face him. "I'm sorry ma'am but the instructions were-"
"Please." I cut him off and he looks at me apologetic. "I can't. I'm sorry." He's about to turn on the car when I put my hand against his.
"Please." He looks down at my hand against his and then at me. It takes him a while to respond but he finally does.
"It can't be for too long."
