A car horn blurred out front it was his driver.
"Go" releasing me" I will see you this evening"
I ran out the bar, my heart pounding not looking back once thankfully I didn't stumble. I was free, free from his penetrating gaze and hurtful words been said back and forth. We were not married as yet but we already had our first major fight.
I close my eyes taking a deep breath calming my nerves and thoughts trying to steady my heart before slipping into the back of the awaiting vehicle, a sleek suv, closing my eyes feeling foolish and embarrassed by my out burst.
The roads were clear as I made my way home. I spoke not a word to his driver my thoughts immersed with that of Nickolai. A shiver ran though my lithesome frame my stomach rumbling with hunger as I thought about our kiss. Okay Emily he is conceit, bossy but a great kisser, brooding.
How could my father make such a deal with a sadist and not give me the heads up before he died, it was the least he could have done since he never did anything else for me.
I breath a sign of relief as the car pulled up in front my house. Concisely I thank him exiting the vehicle limping, running up a short flight of stairs opening the door. Tires screeching behind me stung my ears his driver was gone.
