❝The truth always comes out, one way or another❞

.•*•.

The kitchen is smaller than I would've imagined but it's larger than both the living rooms in the guest floor. It has everything a kitchen could have. I'm in awe of this place and perhaps some things would've been different if I had been allowed to go to this kitchen and just be in the normal portion of the mansion which I've not even explored yet as I've not gone everywhere. "Now, what is it that you want to have?" Sebastian asks me. For a moment I had forgotten he was even there at all.

My gaze runs over to him to see him staring right at me. "What can I have?" I ask him. He chuckles as he walks over to the fridge but he doesn't need to open it as it's see through. The doors to the fridge are glass. I've never seen that before but it does look amazing. "Anything" He whispers as I walk over to him to look into the fridge. It got everything that anyone would want and not just a few things of this and some of that like in the guest floor. I notice the soup in a bowl. 1

"The soup?" I ask. He nods as he opens the fridge and takes the soup out from it and brings it to the stove where he will reheat it again. I find a stool to sit on as I watch him. "Who know that the great Sebastian King knows how to use a stove" I say with a giggle. Sebastian sends me a warning look which only makes me laugh. He doesn't say anything but I know he wants to and he's trying to hold himself back. Because I'm sick? Because he has a surprise for me?

I don't know but I think I want to use this moment to my advantage. "Where were you in those two months?" I ask him suddenly. His butler, I had asked so many times where he was but he never answered me. Often he would ignore me like I wasn't even there at all which only added to my frustration. Sebastian stops right in his tracks but then he collects himself and continues to stir the soup so it would not burn while he's heating it up. "That is of no concern of yours" He says and I can already feel the anger in his voice. 5

"Actually it is, you are my husband and I am your wife. Whether we like it or not this is our life and as your wife it is my concern" I tell him. He doesn't look at me as he's stirring the soup that is still heating up. Sighing he turns around to face me. Something in his look makes me see what he was doing, guilt and remorse. Only making me know that he did something bad, something he knew would hurt me. My mind swirls around all the bad things that he could've done but I can't be sure exactly but I know it was something bad. 2

He gets a bowl from one of the cabinet and puts some of the soup into it before he walks over to me and hands it to me with a spoon. "Tell me the truth" I say to him. He sits down on a stool in front of me as I start eating the soup. "Fawn, I've told you before. There are things in this world that are evil and I'm only protecting you from them" He says to me but that doesn't work anymore. He isn't going to go down this road again, he's going to tell me. 5

"And what is that? What is so dangerous that you of all people need to protect me from it? Bear in mind that we're not leaving this kitchen until you've told me the truth" I tell him. He looks at me with shock as I'm slowly eating the soup and threatening him at the same time. I suppose I've picked that one from him, staying calm and yet so scary for others. That is how some people view him. "The truth is a bit more complicated..." He starts but I scoff.

"Coming from the man who owns the world. I thought nothing were to hard or difficult or complicated for someone like you" I say. Before I married him I did not know much about him, his family was powerful and then he rose up from his family and controls the world. He's called the Devil because there is nothing he wouldn't do in business and he is know for being cruel and manipulative and horrible. He stares at me as if he can't believe I'm talking back but he better get used to it. 1

While he may not have changed that much over the last two months, I have. Sebastian might not see it but I am different and I've grown stronger than I wand now it's time for me to fight back. Fight like I had always been afraid to. "Now, where were you in those two months?" I ask him quietly but he could hear the anger in my voice and he's about to hear that I'm much more angry than he knows. He sighs as he realizes that there is no way that he's going to be able to get out of this.

"Once you learn the truth, you're going to think of me differently" He says but I know that isn't the truth. I've already fallen in love with him so nothing he says can change that, however I need to hold my ground. "Just explain and I will be the judge of that" I tell him. The look in his beautiful emerald green eyes is one that almost breaks my heart but the anger is just too great to care much for it. "These last two months I was tracking down some people... because they were hired to kill you..." He speaks.
