Chapter 2
đź’‹Amaya’s point of viewđź’‹
It was almost until an hour before the car st©pped. I had been forcing myself to stay awake for this moment.
I decided to keep at Sebastian but he was still sitting on the seat, closing his eyes as if to relax himself. I still kept myself hidden and tried to glance out the window at where we were. But Sebastian gro-an ed, opening the door of the car, my breath hitched.
The car slammed shut and I heard his footsteps move away from the car and I sighed in relief, only for the back door to open causing me to fall on my back on the cold floor.
“You think I wouldn’t notice a presÂŁnce in my car?” A de-ep voice said, and I opened my eyes to see dark eyes, hair as black as night and a tall frame hovering above me.
Sebastian Salvador.
I gulped in fear, trying to get the courage to get up, but Sebastian brou-ght out a gun and pointed it to my face. I g@sped, trying to move away, but he gr@bb£d me and f0rç£d me to my feet so I was
just a few inches away from him.
“Who the fv¢k are you?” He said, pointing the gun to my head. “You have three seconds before I b!ow your br@ins out” He sounded harsh, almost like Pedro and I knew if I didn’t reply I was going to have an early death.
I f0rç£d my mouth to open, even as my heart threatened to jump out of my che-st in fear, my legs wo-bbled but Sebastian held me ti-ght so I couldn’t fall.
“A–Amaya” I stammered, trying to avoid his gaze. He picked up on it and drew me closer to him, my b©dy tested to his bulging che-st, I felt a tingle from the contact.
His dark green eyes watched me, calculating and looking for any form of threat. And I looked down, something about those eyes scared me.
“What’s your last name?” He asked and I almost coll@psed from fear. I was Amaya Amador, because I was married to Pedro Amador, I bore his last name. I couldn’t tell him that, telling him I was an Amador was a death sÂŁntence, considering he hated them. And worse was I was the wife of Pedro.
I quic-kly racked my br@in for another last name. “Smith”
“Mexicans don’t answer Smith” Sebastian deadpanned and I still didn’t look up at him.
“My father was British” I said, swallowing my spits again.
“Look at me! Never turn away when I talk to you!” He jÂŁrked my hands further so any space between us was closed up and I rested helplessly against him. My leg was damaged and I couldn’t even stand. I was at his Mercy.
But even with the strong and dangerous aura radiating off him, and my heart beating with fear, I couldn’t look up.
What if he recognized me?
Pedro had taken me out a few times to show off to the world.
What If Sebastian had seen me?
“I said look at me!” He shouted again, using his other hand to place his gun back in his pockets before jÂŁrking my head up to meet his eyes.
Green. Not as green as the Fields. No but dark green, very dark it was almost ha-rd to see the color, he was angry, and terrible he managed to look so handsome.
I noticed a scar running down from his temple to his jaw, it was a de-ep scar, but it seemed it only made him more beautiful. My breath hitched and I wondered why someone as handsome as he was, had a black heart.
He watched me as if he could find the answers in my face, and I saw no flash of recognition in his eyes.
He didn’t know who I was.
Hisl-ips p@rted to say something, but no words c@mÂŁ out. There was a way he stared at me, he searched every inch of my face before his eyes landed on myl-ips.
He inches closer, and my eyes wi-de-ned with fear. What was he doing?
He drew closer and I felt his b©dy heat around me.
“Brother! You’re back!” A high pitched voice broke our moment and Sebastian pushed me back, I couldn’t find my footing so I fell to the ground immediately, my foot screamed in contact to the ha-rd , cold floor.
I looked up to see a nee-d beautiful lady come to hvg Sebastian, he just stood like a stick as she hvgged him and k!$$ÂŁd his cheeks.
She had blonde hair, that glittered like gold un-der the street lights, and she wore a black shi-t and loose trou-sers. She had the same green eyes as Sebastian only hers was lighter.
“Where did you go? It’s past midnight and I was worried. I kept asking your annoying right hand man, Daniel, but he wouldn’t tell me” She grumbled, pu-lling away from him before turning to meet my gaze. I shifted a little.
“Who is this dirt?” She asked, looking at me with pure disgust and irritation.
“I don’t know, I found her hiding in my car. I don’t know where she c@mÂŁ from” Sebastian replied, fishing out his phone to call someone named Daniel.
The lady walked to me still disgusted by me. “Who are you? And what are you doing here?”
She spat with so much venom. She didn’t even recognize me and yet she talked to me with such hatred.
“I’m Amaya Smith. I ran away from home because of my abusive father” Was my reply, I suddenly felt dizzy, having run throu-gh the forest, and f0rç£ myself to stay awake in Sebastian car, before
almost dying in fear from his t©uçh.
I glanced back at him and he was staring at me with those dark eyes, I quic-kly turned away.
“Hmm. I don’t know if we should kill you, because you might be a spy” She thought before walking to her brother. “What do you say brother?”
“I think we should kill her, I can’t have untrusted people in my territory” He said, looking at me with no emotion written on his face.
“Sebastian one of the maids just coll@psed in the kitchen, I think she was really sick. She has been taken to the hospital” A voice said, and I turned to see a very handsome man.
Brown hair, brown eyes, he wore a black jeans and a ti-ght fitting shi-t that showed the size of his biceps, I shrinked away from them. My fear returning.
He st©pped when he saw me, looking at me with confusion.
“Wow, who’s this?” He asked, and I didn’t miss the look of annoyance the lady gave me, before turning to look at the man with admiration.
“I don’t know Daniel. We just found her hiding in Sebastian’s car. We don’t know who she is” The lady said, staring at the man whose name was Daniel.
“Rosa you should be resting now. Let me take care of this.”
“I think we should kill her” The lady, Rosa said tiredly.
“What? No! She could be off good as-set to us”
“And what more can this pathetic creature serve as?”
I wanted to insult her, but considering her brother was a dangerous drug Lord, I didn’t dare open my mouth, even as Daniel bent in front of me.
“Your foot is injured” He examined my leg, before looking at me and smiling.
“Don’t t©uçh her! She could be carrying a disease!” Rosa shouted, pu-lling Daniel away from me.
“She could work in the kitchen, Sebastian what do you say? There’s no time hiring more maid, she can take the place of the one that’s in the hospital, instead of Killing her when she’s done nothing
wrong” Daniel reasoned, and I felt my heart melt at his kindness.
Sebastian seemed to think of it before nodding, and Rosa spoke.
“She could be a spy!”
“Enough! Take her the workers Chambers!” Sebastian said before turning to look at me with cold eyes.
“If you as much try to leave this place, or even breathe in any manner that seems suspicious I wouldn’t hesitate to b!ow your heads off”

đź’‹Amaya’s point of viewđź’‹
“Come on let me take you to the workers quarters” Daniel said, stretching his hand to help me get up.
A glance at Rosa told me not to even take his hand so I turned helping myself to my feet before I wo-bbled and started to fall when a pair of hands gr@bbÂŁd unto me.
I opened my eyes expecting to see Daniel come to my rescue but those hands belonged to Sebastian as he was just leaving before I stumbled.
He stared at me intensely and I opened my mouth to mutter a thank you but his hands left me causing me to fall with great pan to my back.
Rosa laughed before walking off with her brother.
My eyes glittered with tears as I chocked back a sob. Daniel c@mÂŁ to me immediately.
“Don’t worry about that. Sebastian is still trying to warp his head around the fact that even when he tries to be harsh, there’s still a small p@rt of kindness within him. He just tried to ignore it”
I didn’t know what to say to that, but my heart was heavy and my leg hurt. Aside from that I was in a place I didn’t know anything about and I was going to be a maid.
I didn’t know which was worse, being Pedro’s wife, or a maid in the dangerous drug Lord house.
But then I’d have to find out. I wiped my eyes and I felt a pair of hands surround me before lifting me up the ground. Daniel smiled when I g@sped in fear. My hands automatically surrounded his
n£¢k, holding into him not to fall.
We walked towards the house, and for the first time I noticed the lavish, hvge mansion. A fountain surrounded it’s centre, and a beautiful patio at the left. Colourful flowers grew at it’s entrance. The walls glittered with lights, and a chandelier hung from the porch.
My jaw dropped when we got inside, a hvge two sided staircase faced us. The sitting room was hvge, bright and beautiful. With Chandeliers, flowers and golden seats. Pedro’s mansion was
nothing compared to this. Considering his was mostly silver, but this was gold. Stealing one chair would make me a millionaire.
“I’m Daniel by the way” Daniel said, carrying me towards the left of the sitting room. We entered a hvge hallway and he turned to the left.
“I’m Amaya” I said, hiding my face.
“Ok Amaya, why did you get into Seb’s car?”
“I ran away from my father” Was my simple reply. Daniel noticing my nervousness didn’t press further into the subject.
The aroma of food flooded my nostrils and my stomach grumbled in delight.
Daniel opened a door and walked in. Putting me on a near be-d.
“This room belongs to the female workers” I looked around the high room with about eight be-ds.
Beside each be-d was a hvge wardrobe and some personal girl things. It was beautiful.
“This would be your be-d” He pointed to a be-d at the end of the room, beautifully la-id.
He guided me towards the be-d and dropped me gently on it.
“Most of the girls are at their duty post, they should be back by now, but sometimes they love staying in the kitchen to gossip. Let me check the leg” He picked my leg and I looked around.
Each be-d was la-id smoothly, and the floor sparkled, beside the door I noticed the bathroom.
Daniel picked my leg and observed it. “Just a little sprain, I’ll get the girls to get you a painkiller, it Should be better in the morning” He smiled.
There was something about him. And I sÂŁnt him a smile too.
“There’s your uniform in the wardrobe and a few other clothes, the workers wake up by five, Rosa would as-sign you to your duty post in the morning. Just do as she says and you won’t have a
problem” At the mention of Sebastian sister myl-ips curled in anger.
“I have to go now, I’ll go talk to the girls in the kitchen, take a shower and get some rest. They would bring you a meal”
Daniel rose to his feet and I suddenly felt scared because I was going to meet other girls who worked here, what if they were like Rosa, snubbish and annoying.
I tried getting up and walked to the wardrobe, each cloth hung on an hanger, and I noticed a black Sk-irt with a white shi-t. The maid uniform. Beside it was a white simple night dress so I picked it up
and then a shampoo, soap and sponge. Before walking to the bathroom.
I str!pped n-ked and observed myself in the full length mirror. I looked so dirty and worn out. No wonder Rosa called me dirt. My hair was messy and tangled.
I stepped into the bath tub feeling the h0t water run down my spine sooting it. My hands automatically went to my stomach, I felt the small bu-mp there. My baby was there. It was safe at least. I could work here, at least my baby wouldn’t be in the arms of a beast.
I smiled then washed myself, combe-d my hair with a random brush on the counter, before dressing and limping out of the bathroom.
Just at the same time the door bur-st and the girls ran in with the same uniform with hvge grin on their faces.
“Where is she?”
“Daniel is so cute”
“He said she’s here, where?”
I coughed and they turned to me, their smile increa-sed almost tearing their faces.
They squealed, running to me.
“I’m Diana”
“Brenda”
“Maria”
“Cara”
“Elena”
“And that’s Isabel, she doesn’t talk much, what’s your name?”
The one called Elena ran to me first, holding my hand and smiling at me.
Ok, first of all they were weird, I couldn’t even remember who was who again. And they were so happy to see me, so I smiled.
“Amaya” I said, looking at all their faces. They looked about the same age as me if not a little younger.
Another girl stepped forward, who I figured was Cara. “Daniel is so handsome, he smiled at me did you see it, Maria?”
The girl Maria with blue eyes and brown hair stepped forward. “He smiled at everyone, Cara. Not only you” Then she turned to me. “Don’t mind her, she has a crush on him”
Cara rolled her eyes and I laughed.
“Besides we all know Rafael is the cutest, with his dreamy green eyes” Another girl stepped forward, looking dreamy at the ceiling.
“Brenda, you know him and his twin brother Andres look the same. So there’s no cuter one” Elena said, placing her hand on her w@!st.
“No! Rafael had a small dot on the side of his face and Andres doesn’t. And if you look closely Rafael eyebrows are a little more carved than Andres” The girl who was Diana said.
“You’re weird Diana how did you even notice that?” Maria laughed.
“I secretly watch him sleep” Diana blu-shed.
“That’s creepy” Elena said.
“But we all know Sebastian is S-xiest on legs, with those green eyes, dark hair, tall frame. And those muscles” Elena sighed, lost in her thoughts. “I could li-ck him”
“Ok first of all Ew, we all know Seb is a perfectionist, his b©dy is to die for. And those eyes. I could get lost in them” Maria smiled.
“And thosel-ips, I could k!ssthem and ne–”
“Guys!” The girl Isabel who they said didn’t talk much walked forward, snapping all the girls from their dream State. “You’re creeping Amaya out with your stupid obse-ssion with Daniel, Rafael,
Andres and Sebastian. They don’t even know you guys names and you’re dreaming about thierl-ips and eyes. The only eyes you’ll be seeing is the one of Rosa when she hears you talking about them!”
They all grumbled before smiling at me. “We are so sorry, but sometimes we just get carried away”
Brenda said, chuckling.
“Ok we’ve introduced ourselves, Elena and Diana work in the kitchen, Me and Brenda work on the hallways and sitting room. Maria and Isabel work on the gardens and outside. While Kaylee the
most ha-rd working one worked in the be-drooms, but she’s sick now” They all felt sober. “So you’ll take her place and anytime anyone of us is free we’ll help you. And all of us do the laundry every
Saturday. We wake up by five every morning, say our five minutes prayer then start our work. We mostly finish by ten but we love hanging out in the kitchen, until the boys sÂŁnd us to be-d for
ma-king noise” Cara smiled.
“Any questions?”
