Chapter 74. Forceful Behavior (+18)
The next day, Sienna woke up alone in the bed. Daniel was not there in the bedroom. The moment she realized that he was gone, she felt relieved.
As she watched around the quiet bedroom, she could take a breath easily. It was eight in the morning when she woke up. She woke up a little bit late this time. She usually got up very early in the morning around five a.m. when the sun had not risen yet.
When she turned to look at herself, she was still wearing the same clothes as she arrived yesterday in this big house. She had not changed her clothes. And she had not taken a shower yet.
She felt her body was kind of sweating and smelly this time. It was time to take a bath.
She got out of this king-sized bed carefully. She didn’t want to make a noise. It was like she tried sneaking in. She felt like a thief in this house when she was not.
She was actually feeling uncomfortable about staying in his place. Moreover, she had to lie to Estelle and Aunty Milla that she stayed with Cora. And the last thing she regretted the most was to tell Jonathan that she wanted a breakup with him.
This was all a stupid mistake. But the mistake that she had to choose to save her father and Jonathan. She just didn’t want the people that she loved to get hurt because of her problem.
Afterward, when she was about to walk into the bathroom, her phone was ringing inside her sling bag. She quickly walked toward the desk to take out the phone and checked it out.
Her eyes popped out widely the moment she found out who was calling her phone. Her heart was beating faster each second. Her hands were kind of trembling as she felt excited.
She hurriedly received the phone call and said, “Dad! Oh, my God! How are you? How is your life in London? I miss you!”
“Sienna! My lovely daughter!” Her dad also sounded as excited as she was. “I want to inform you that I can finally take my day off from work and return to New York very soon.”
“Oh, that’s great news, Dad! When will you come home exactly?” Sienna wondered.
“I’ll be flying to New York next week. Don’t forget to tell Milla and her daughter!” Her dad said cheerfully.
Sienna was about to tell him that she would really like to pick him up by herself at the airport. But the moment she realized what kind of circumstance that she had here, she hesitated.
“Dad… I… I miss you so much. I really want to see you soon here in New York,” Sienna could only express what she felt through words.
But she felt a huge dilemma about meeting with her dad shortly. She didn’t know if the situation would be okay if she walked away from this big house and left Daniel. She was trapped in this big house already.
And then she heard her dad said, “Of course, I miss you so much too, Sienna.”
“Okay, Dad, I will tell Aunty Milla and Estelle that you will come home soon,” Sienna said.
Afterward, they hang up on each other’s phone call.
Sienna could just wait for whatever would happen next week. But she hoped that she could see her dad in person real soon. She wanted to see him again after all this time they had been separated in a different country.
After she threw her phone into her sling bag, she went into the bathroom.
***
All day long, Sienna only spent her time sitting on the bed and do nothing but scrolling through her social media. She felt really bored being in this place. It was like she had nothing better to do but sitting numbly and gawking.
Sometimes she sent Cora a text message to ask about her day. And Cora replied that she was fine. And then Sienna told her that her day in Daniel’s house had been boring.
Other time, Sienna texted Aunty Milla and Estelle to tell them about her dad that would return to New York next week.
Until in the evening, she finally heard a footstep outside came closer. And as the bedroom door was opening, she saw Daniel entering the room with his usual flat face.
She watched him cautiously at the time. She tried to read his expression, but she had a hard time interpreting what she saw.
He looked half gloomy and half emotionless. It was hard to tell what he was actually feeling at the time. Was he moody? Was he in a good condition?
He looked like he was just having a rough day. But it was Daniel after all. He was a bossy mafia. He could look like that forever and he didn’t let people read his emotion. He was just that kind of mysterious person in the world that was hard to read.
For a second, her heart was beating anxiously when he walked to the bed. He was half unbuttoning his long sleeve white shirt.
She blinked, panicking when he intentionally gave her an uneasy feeling.
“What are you doing?” Sienna shouted out defensively.
“I want you, Baby,” he murmured while unbuttoning the rest of his shirt.
Her lips trembled as she watched him half showing his muscular chest.
And when he slowly crawled toward her on the bed, he said, “I’m craving to touch you. I want to sleep with you again after such a long time…”
But she immediately smashed him with her legs, trying to avoid him. “Don’t touch me!”
He quickly fixed his position to get closer to her.
She was so terrified when he finally grabbed her legs and held them with his strong hands.
“You are mine, and you will listen to me,” he said, threatening her.
She sighed heavily and shouted back, “No, I will not! It’s enough that you have me to stay in your place! Sleeping with you is not part of the deal!”
He smirked. “Don’t you remember our conversation on the phone?”
Sienna narrowed her eyebrows at him, bewildered.
“The deal is to have you stay at my house and act like my wife,” he reminded her.
She flinched when he said that. She just remembered about that last part. The words suddenly echoed inside her head so badly.
*Stay at my house and act like my wife.*
Somehow, his words felt like a lot of thorns hurting her head. She felt a bad headache by just listening to whatever damn things he said.
However, she still had her right to argue back. And thus, she snarled out bravely to him, “I don’t want to! Do you hear me?”
“Then you should be concerned about my plan for your beloved father and boyfriend,” Daniel reminded her once again.
She instantly gulped down her saliva. She flinched, terrified about this situation.
And then her voice was breaking when she murmured, “Please, don’t…”
“It’s part of our agreement, Sienna. It’s all in your hands,” Daniel said firmly.
She stared back at him, giving him a hating look. She really despised this man who kept on forcing her to do whatever he wanted. She felt disgusted by his forceful behavior toward her. It was like she was his puppet.
“Well, you don’t really have an option but to obey me, Baby,” Daniel chuckled.
She narrowed her eyes at him, flustered. She felt so weak the moment he said that.
And then he got on top of her and whispered, “Come, I will make you feel good, Baby.”
But she pushed him away from her. She didn’t let him come near her.
But Daniel was still trying to kiss her neck. She felt the intense tingling sensation when his lips sucked her neckline. She moaned and whined. She couldn’t remember if it felt hurt or felt good. It was like the feeling in between. It felt so crazy.
On the other side, her logical mind was still there with her, trying to remind her to fight back. And thus, she kept pushing his shoulders away. And she smashed him over and over to avoid his touch at all cost.
Soon after, Daniel grabbed her arms and locked her hands up for a second. Then he faced her and said ragingly, “If you don’t obey me, I will…”
When the bell was suddenly ringing loudly throughout this big house, he paused.
His eyes still lingered close to her. He didn’t look away for a second. She also didn’t blink while staring back at him.
And then he muttered, “Wait for me here. Don’t try to run away from me.”
Sienna watched him carefully as he crawled out of the bed. He hurriedly wore his long sleeve white shirt again and walked out the door.
As he left her alone in the bedroom, Sienna took a deep breath.
She was so terrified when he tried to do something to her.
But she knew, sooner or later, she had to face this nightmare again.
And the show was about to begin.
