chapter 3
Alessandro smiled, she was going back to being the sassy mouthed person that she was. She was a tough one indeed.
“Is there an epidemic or something like that?”.
He ignored her and pushed open the doors to the Kitchen, “The kitchen Mi lady", he said sarcastically and placed his hand at the low of her back as he gently nudged her forward. He could see her visibly shudder, he smirked to himself.
“Andro my dear”, a plump elderly lady walked up to him and pulled his cheeks. All the other maids In the kitchen chorused their greetings, he waved them off paying attention to the sweet old lady before him.
He was much taller than she was so he leaned down a little allowing her to touch him. She was the only woman who had earned the right to play with him like that apart from his mother.
She also had a knack for giving nicknames hence the name Andro...He pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, to say he loved her was an understatement. He could see Isabella’s shocked expression from the corner of her eyes, the other servants continued with their activities oblivious to what was happening around them.
He took Marie’s hand in his, “I want you to meet Isabella...”.
Marie lightly shoved him and pulled Isabella into a hug, “Bella dear...”
Alessandro grinned, she had a very lively personality and it was infectious, Isabella hesitated a moment before returning the hug.
“So I see you already have a nickname for her”.
Marie glared at him, “Of course I do, Bella suits her fine”, she held her chin and gave Isabella a long look, “Isn’t she very pretty?”.
He shrugged in response.
Marie gave him a look that said he had a lot of explaining to do, typical Marie...
“So Marie, I want you to fix something for her to eat”, He looked Isabella over, “ She clearly looks like she hasn’t eaten anything for a while and she needs some meat on her bones".
Marie tapped him lightly on the arm, “Don’t be rude...”.
“A few plates of food and a good rest will fix me but what about you?. You don’t have a heart so what are you going to do about it?”, She retorted, anger clear in her voice.
Alessandro froze, he knew she had an attitude but he was not expecting her to openly challenge him in front of everybody. Marie looked visibly shocked and even the other servants who had been doing well in ignoring their conversation stopped in their tracks.
A plate dropped shattering the stillness of the room. Alessandro stalked her like he would a prey, she stepped backwards to get away from him, he smirked, he liked her fear. He walked towards her till she was pinned against a wall. He placed his palm on the wall behind her till he had her trapped.
“The least you could do is say thank you that I saved your life!”, he punched the wall behind her making her shake in fear, “That is what normal people do", he shouted.
Her chest was heaving, he liked that she was terrified of him.
“Andro take it easy”, Marie pleaded, “You’re scaring the poor girl...”.
Nothing prepared him for her reply however, “I’d rather be dead than live this life".

Isabella’s eyes stared fixatedly on Alessandro he was nothing like the prim and proper prince that she knew. His dark long hair was let loose and it draped against his shoulders. He was in casual clothing, nothing like his usual royal regalia. He looked almost normal until he flashed his fangs.“It seems like you’re already adjusting to life here”, he remarked, “Well that’s good since you will be my escort to the ball of a lifetime, he came to sit besides her on the couch, she moved away
