She was smiling when she entered the room.
"Where the hell are you coming from Alisha?" Leonardo shouted at her.
She ignored him and went to the shower cubicle. She was washing her body and had soap all over her face when the water stopped running.
"Fuck" she cursed as she tried to rotate the shower control without opening her eyes, so soap would not get into her eyes.
Her hand touched another hand that was not hers on the shower control and she jumped a little in fright.
"Was Leonardo here and staring at her naked body?" she asked her subconscious.
"Yes stupid, he is looking at your naked body and he is smiling devilishly and comparing the size of your breast and ass to the last woman he had sex with." the voice in her head mocked her.
"What the hell do you want Leonardo?" she screamed at him
"I want to know where my wife was all morning and why she was smiling when she walked in" he said and let the water flow only in very little drops.
"Leonardo stop being childish and let the water run" she scolded and he stopped the flow of water completely.
"What is wrong with you?" she whined in pain
"Where was my wife, all morning?" he asked placing emphasis on the word "wife"
"I went for a walk, and why does it matter to you?"
"I hope there is nothing more to this walk of yours" he said and left her to complete her shower.
Alisha allowed the water flow, washing away the soap from her body. Her face was a little bit itchy from the time she stayed with soap on it without washing off. It was all Leonardo's fault, and she was going to make him pay, she just needed to find out how.
She ignored him for the rest of the day. He worked from the room on his laptop the entire day. He ordered breakfast and lunch, sitting at a spot to work and eat. The only time he got up was when he had to use the bathroom.
Alisha tried to ignore his presence. She neither are breakfast with him or lunch. She was still too mad at him.
She forced her eyes on the novel, and only did look at the wall clock from time to time. She was anticipating her boat cruise and dinner. She hoped Leonardo would be out of the house so she would not have to answer to his questions about her whereabout.
Leonardo said nothing to his wife, he only stole glances at her when she had her eyes planted on the novel she was reading.
He caught her looking at the wall clock in the suite a few times, but she never got up to go anywhere.
It was five minutes to 7:00pm, Alisha was going to be late for her boat cruise and that was if she was able to go, because Leonardo was making no attempt to leave the room.
At 7:00pm, Alisha was restless and paced the room.
"What seems to be the matter with you?" Leonardo asked looking up to her from his laptop as he sat on the bed.
"Nothing" she replied him with a tone that said she didn't want to be bothered.
Few minutes past 7:00pm and Leonardo decided he had worked so hard for the day, and decided to take a short walk, and maybe grab a beer in the bar.
As soon as Leonardo stepped out, Alisha jumped up from the sofa and got dressed. She wore a blue dress that stopped by her knees.
It was simple yet beautiful. She packed her hair in ponytail and applied lipgloss on her lips.
She picked her purse that had some money and her phone. She wore black sandals and left the suite. She read her address to the cab driver and settled in for the ride.
It was not a long ride, she knew it was not far from the resort, but she was already late to try to locate the spot on foot by herself.
"Hey beautiful" Charles the boat repairer smiled at her as she walked towards his boat workshop.
"I'm so sorry I'm late" she apologized as he kissed her both cheeks.
"I'm just glad that you are here" he said leading her towards the boats.
He showed her around his workshop, and led her into the boat for the night's cruise.
"We will be riding in this baby for the night, ready to set sail?" he asked her and she smiled at him.
"Your smile is so beautiful, it ignites something within me" Charles was saying and was coming too close to her. He pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.
"You smell like flower's he said as he buried his head into her neck.
"Charles, please stop this" she tried pushing him away, but his strong arms would not let her go.
"I want you Alisha's he moaned as he kissed her cleavage.
"Let me go Charles" she scolded him, still pushing him with force.
"She said let her go" she heard from behind her, he pulled Charles away from her and punched him hard on his face.
Charles fell to the ground and groaned in pains as the punches hit his ribs.
"Let him go, do you want to kill him?" Alisha scolded.
"To the car now" he ordered her with a voice that scared her, and surprised him.
Alisha, turned around and raced out of the boat. Thank goodness there were not sea yet.
She found his car parked at a spot, and she got into it, shivering from the confrontation she had just encountered.
He said nothing to her as he got into the car and drove off. He arrived at a restaurant and packed the car.
"Get down" he ordered as he opened the door for her. She did as she was told without any objections or questions.
Eat up he scolded her as the waiter dropped the food on the table.
I do not she was saying but he interrupted her.
Fucking eat up Alisha, I am tired of your troubles already.
No she fired back at him and left the table. She stepped out of the restaurant and went to where he had packed the car. The doors were locked, so he stood by the car and waited for him to be done with his meal.
She stood for a while by the car and was contemplating if she should go back into the restaurant when he came out and walked to the car.
She was surprised that he still opened the door for her even when he appeared to be mad at her.
What was the meaning of all that rubbish? Leonardo asked her as soon as they stepped into their suite and locked the door behind them.
What did you do to Charles?
That is none of your business he fired at her as he took off his shoes.
Oh my goodness, you killed him she said in fright
Stop being overly dramatic Alisha
Just tell me what you did to him
I gave him what he deserved, now stop asking me questions. What were you doing with him?
What I was doing with him is none of your business; I was having a nice time until you interrupted
"You were literally in distress when I arrived.
I was fine
"You would have been raped by that asshole
How did you find me? she asked him as she finally sat to take off her sandals.
He ignored her, looking into his phone and smiling at something.
She went into the bathroom to wash off Charles scent from her skin, then changed into her pajamas and climbed on the bed.
We need to talk, sit up Leonardo interrupted her rest the moment her head hit the pillow.
I do not want to talk, I want to sleep she complained, and covered her body with the duvet.
Get up he scolded her and she jumped up from the bed and sat.
Dont treat me like a kid she said in a calm voice , she never liked it when anyone raised their voice at her.
I will treat you however I want to he said and faced her.
"What were you doing with Charles? he asked her and gave her a look that said she should start talking and stop arguing.
"I met him this morning when I was out for a walk; he invited me for dinner and a boat cruise this evening.
Was that why you rejected breakfast and lunch earlier?
No, I was mad at you and did not want to eat with you
"Why did you reject dinner tonight?
You could have killed me
I did not put a knife to your neck
You were forcing me to eat seafood, I am allergic to seafood
He did not apologize, he only looked at her with a face that said he was sorry, but almost instantly, the look was replaced with his usual boss man look.
Can I go to bed now? Alisha asked him as she returned to a sleeping position.
No, sit he said looking at his phone.
Youve not had anything to eat all day before she could argue with him, he called room service and ordered dinner for her.
Thank you she murmured as she sat to enjoy her meal.
"Where are you going to? she asked him as he headed towards the door
None of your business he fired at her
I think we need to review the contract
I think the contract is perfect the way it is.
I totally disagree; you cannot do whatever you like, and not expect me to do same just because you pay me
So you want to go around fucking any available dick
If that is what you do, I want to do it too
There is no way my wife will be seen around doing that
And you want me to be cool, having my husband fuck every tramp out there
I cannot be celibate
I choose not to be celibate either
"Are you insinuating that we start having sex? he said with disgust written all over his face, not that she was not attractive, this days he had started contemplating kissing her, but there was no way he would kiss her and stop there.
There is also no way he would kiss her and after having sex with her would still want her as his arranged wife. He could not risk losing his inheritance.
There is no way I would want to have sex with a man like you, youve kissed over a hundred women
Tell me you do not want to kiss me he said and moved very close to her face.
Alishas breathe picked up an unknown race. She could smell his cologne. His hot breathe was on her. Her brain stopped working and her hormones picked the wheel.
She wanted his lips on hers; she wanted him to touch her. This was a feeling she was supposed to be scared about, but for now, she was not thinking. She wanted his mouth.
He moved more closely to her and she moved backward and fell on the bed. He stayed over her. His breathe teasing her lips and her brains.
His eyes were watching her. First his eyes moved to her lips, then he looked at her eyes, her eyes were closed, her lips were slightly parted.
Her night wear revealed the upper part of her breast. It was not every day he saw full cleavages. He wanted to touch her. He wanted to feel her against his skin.
This was a dangerous feeling.
For the very first time, Leonardo was scared to kiss a woman. He was scared to pleasure her, maybe it was because of his inheritance, or maybe because he was scared of being lost in the arms of this woman.
