Chapter 1

She was never lucky, like her peers, always forced to please others then displeasing herself in return. She was to arrive Italy, in 30 minutes. She was going to a new country were she was forced to work as a maid for an Italian business tycoon. Vivian sighed remembering why she was actually on this particular plane, she had planned to esecape this bad predicament before her. Her conscience would not permit her, always reminding her that she had no one to help her, he would always find her and come for her.

Her parents had abandoned her as a child with her uncle, from the maternal side. Her mother had given birth to her out of wedlock, she couldn't bear the shame so she handed Vivian over to her old retired British based uncle who have just retired and decided to return home to rest. She was a university undergraduate who was devices by flashy things. Andrew Onye worked at an airport in Italy, the capital city of Rome for 30 years.

When Anita, Vivian's mother brought her to him, he was reluctant to accept her at first being that he was unmarried and old to look after a new born. After so much talk and pleas he finally accepted to take care of her. Vivian grew up to find out that her mother later died in an accident few years later. Life had never been the best living with Sir. Andrew, he made her start working at a very tender age, she was induced to hard labor.

At age 5, she could cook, do the laundry and run errands. Neighbors would come to complain and try to make him see reasons that she was too tender for the stress but all advices fell on deaf ears. She would return from school to meet heavier tasks. When she was 11 she took the state's entrance examination and excelled, she was lucky because it was a boarding school. She escaped his wrath for 5 years, unfortunately for her she didn't complete it.

She was on holidays this particular Friday, he had sent her to the market to get some groceries, upon arrival she met some flashy dark cars at the front of the yard. She hesitated going in, it reminded her of the novels she read on Wattpad, little did she know her life was about to change too.

She walked in and met light skinned men in black tuxedos and dark shades standing at the corridor, she almost burst out laughing till she head voices in the living room. She hurried to the kitchen to arrange the groceries in the refrigerator before heading back to the living room. She headed towards the door and bumped into a wall, she stumbled then looked above her, only for her eyes to come crashing down on a heavenly figure.

He was light skinned too like the men at the corridor but he was different, he had brown hair-like that of sawdust, his eyes were greenish blue, his lips were tiny but firm, his abs were like that of Hercules, he was about 6ft 5 inches. His cologne filled the room, he smelled heavenly........

" Are you done staring??". He asked, interrupting her thoughts, before walking away, she looked towards his direction before she heard the harsh banging of the door. Vivian sat on the floor mute, she had never seen a white person in her entire life. He was like the novels she read, handsome with strong solid abs,he smelled unexplainable, and he looked wealthy. She wondered if he was into the Mafia, due to his tone,she had watch so many movies and had mastered each country's tone, she didn't know why she felt happy, she had never felt this way, even with guys that asked her out in her school .

" What are you still doing there? come here I need to speak with you." Her uncle barked staring at her with a stern look on his face, before walking away.
