In the billionaire’s bed - Season 2 - Episode 2

Rebecca’s pov

Three hours.
It’s been three good hours since I moved into the penthouse. I still hadn’t gotten the strength or will power to go out of my room. I was still busy pacing around like a mad woman, thinking of ways to approach a very angry Emeliano.

But-
I’ve done this before, I’ve gained his trust before. This shouldn’t be hard, it wasn’t hard
the last time.

Yeah, maybe that was because I wasn’t the one who caused the first betrayal.
How the hell was I supposed to solve a situation that I single handedly caused.
Just do what you always do Rebecca… Annoy, charm, and stick to the plan.
Hmm, that rhymed.

Taking in deep breaths, I walked out of my room, Coming face to face with a door just like mine.

I locked my door gently, tiptoeing to the other side.

Placing both of my hands on his door, I leaned in to hear any kind of movement from behind the door.

Furrowing my brows, I leaned closer to listen to any slight movement-
Suddenly, the door swung open, causing me to fall forward, colliding with what felt like somebody’s chest. I looked up immediately, catching the eyes of a very confused looking Emeliano.

Quickly, I pulled back, straighting my dress as he continued to watch me with all things called shock written on his face.
“What were you doing?” He asked. His phone was on his right hand. He actually looked different, his hair looked wet and all over the place, he had changed into normal sweats and T-shirt. In all, he looked really casual, sweet and as always, drop dead hot.
“What were I- um what was I doing? Um… I was uh- um, you know what people do. I was uh- um.” I struggled for a smooth excuse but nothing was coming up.

My words were actually betraying me… Like for real.

He shifted from one foot to another, tilting his neck as he continued to study me. “You were?” He pressed on.
“I was looking for, a- you know… Cat?”
His brows furrowed in confusion. “Cat?” He asked.

“Yeah, my cat… Iris, she uh- is missing, so I was trying to find her, I thought that you might- that she might be in there with you.”
He just gave me a look that screamed ‘Why are you even trying to lie?’
“Since when did you have a cat?” He asked.
“Since forever, I had someone bring her down to Orlando.” I said, nodding my head like I just scored a really good goal.
“But I didn’t see you with a cat when you came in.”

“She was still in the cab I took.”
“There was no other cab outside apart from my car when I came in.”
“Oh… Um…” I cleared my throat trying to regain my confidence. “Why do I have to answer to you? What did you think I was doing? Trying to spy on you or something?”
He rolled his eyes and walked out of his room, shut the door and turned to face me with a look of indifference. “listen Miss Lewis, if we’re going to be staying together, there has to be ground rules.”
“Rules? Yeah… Sure.” I fought out, trying my best to keep up a straight face.
With one last unsure look, Emeliano left my presence walking down the hallway to- I guess the sitting room.

Okay, I might have exaggerated a bit. This is going to be harder than I thought.
But hey! It’s not time to give up yet.
