Chapter 3 I'm Engaged More like you're Married

Diego's housekeeper Mrs.Cassie, cleaned and dresses her in a decent cloth before guiding her to a room."You sleep here tonight darling" she said to Rachel. Rachel barely knew what happenings around ,she lay down on the bed and slept almost immediately. Diego had gone to watch the shipment carried out. He was sending the drugs to Don Marko through the sea.He had a shipping company and so it was very easy for him,so the drugs got into italy legally. When he returned he went straight his room.

As he shut the door his eyes caught sight of something on his bed,he carefully approached only to see a sleeping Rachel, looking so pure and innocent. The corner of lips rose in a smile, he sat at the edge of the bed. He found his hand shifting the hair that had fallen to her face. "You're so beautiful" he whispered to himself. "My wife, my life,Mine" She was so irresistible. He leaned and places a soft kiss to her cheeks. He went and took a shower then got dressed in sweat pants and a light shirt. He just wanted to get into he's and hold her close, to feel her body pressed against his but was going to give her that respect. He left the room and used the guest room in the house.

*********************************************

The sun peaking in through the room woke her up. she stretched like a cat. "That was the best sleep i've had in a long time" she smiled. "Well that's nice sweetie* a voice said. Her eyes flew open and standing in front her was a woman who could be in her early sixties.

"Who the fuck are you?

The lady smiled, "I'm Cassie, the housekeeper ". "Housekeeper?" That's when Rachel became aware of her surroundings. She realized this place was way bigger and fancier than her apartment in a whole.

"Where am I?" she asked.

"Why your husband's house,dear?" T he woman replied with a western accent. Rachel stared at her confused. "I'm sorry but I need to go" she said. "You're not going to have breakfast first?" Rachel shook her head. The woman shrugged they gave her a new cloth. "If you're going you wouldn't wanna wear that night gown. what don't you shower and change to this. There's a car already waiting for you outside "

Rachel seemed surprised..

"Thank you " she said sincerely. the woman shook her head. "That's my job." she said and left. Rachel showered and changed into he clothes Cassie had dropped for her. It was nice and suited her perfectly and it looked expensive.

She hoped they weren't going to ask her to pay. Matter of fact how did she get here. The last thing she remembered was the guy who had asked her to dance. Her hand flew to her mouth, did he bring her home? Did she loose her virginity to him? oh god. A knock came to the door, "You okay in there honey?" Cassie asked. Rachel opened the door managing to keep a smile on her face. "Yes, I'm alright. Thank you again for everything"

"No need to thank me." she turned and headed downstairs, Rachel followed. She opened mouth awe, her yes scanning the huge dinning, whoever lives here was filthy rich. Cassie handed her a fancy lunch bag. "Since you can't stay for break, here eat it when you can" Rachel smiled and nodded. Cassie showed her to the door as they stepped out, Rachel was more surprised to see the outside. The ground was well tiled. And there was garden in the left. As the chauffer opened the car door for her, she said goodbye to Cassie and the driver drove off.

Unaware to her, Diego watched her leave from the roof to ground window in his office in the house.

*****************************************

The car dropped Rachel right in front of her apartment. She stepped out, climbing the steps to the porch. she wondered if Sasha had already gone to school. she turned the door knob and pushed open the door.

All eyes turned to her as she came in. James and Sasha and two other men she didn't recognize. "Rachel?" Sasha asked approaching slowly. "What's going on?,what happened?" Rachel asked. Sasha hugged her tightly. "Rachel" she said.

"Ow ow, Too right." Sasha released her. "Where have you been ?" She questioned. Rachel chuckled nervously not sure how she was going to answer that question, she took had no idea where that place was. The two strange men turned to James. "I guess we're done here" James nodded as the men went towards to door. "Thank you officers" Sasha said as they left.Once the door shut behind them Rachel began. "You called the cops?"

"Well you disappeared last night after the guards carried you offstage." Sasha said. "What happened?"

Rachel sat down

"The last thing I remember was dancing with this guy and the rest are blurry." She said.

"So you don't remember pole dancing on stage." Sasha said

"What? I danced on stage?" Rachel exclaimed.

"Yeah you were pretty hot" James added. Sasha glared at him. "Well we're glad you're alright. so where did you go or find yourself"

"Well I woke up in this big penthouse. The only person there was the house keeper,Cassie. She was super nice and even gave me a breakfast bag to go with."

"She didn't say anything about how you got there?" James asked. Rachel shook her head. "Although when I asked where I was, she said something weird. My husband's house or something". Rachel ran her hand through her hair. "I'm never going to clubs with you guys ever again. She stated. They agreed, just then Sasha caught sight of something on Rachel's finger.

"Oh my gosh!!!" she squealed. "How did you get a Ruby stone ring" Rachel looked at her finger. "What the..... I didn't buy this " She said.

"Then how......?"Sasha paused. "Oh Rachel did you get engaged to someone in your drunken state."

"What? No way!!"

"But the Ruby stone ring is used for proposal and remember the rumour, once you've signed a marriage contract in blood, the ring won't leave your finger until you annual your marriage by burning the contract." Sasha reminded. Ra hel shook her head and tried pulling off the ring. "There's no way I'm engaged and to someone I don't even know" But ring didn't come off. "It's not coming off." The door bell rang at the intense moment. "Think it might be your husband?" James teased. "it's not funny" Rachel gritted . James went to answer and returned a few minutes later with a huge bouquet of flowers and a small wrapped box. "It's for you Rachel?"

"What?" she took out the card from the flower. it read;

"Good morning love, sorry I wasn't there to see you off. Have a nice day, my beautiful wife" But it didn't say the name of the sender or any other person.

"I'm Engaged!!!!!!?" Rachel exclaimed. "More like you're married" James said.
