Their wishes were simple and modest. Fate had other things in store though, and she can be a real bitch sometimes.

All he wanted was to get the job
done and somehow to endure those long months playing nanny to a spoiled little
rich girl. Without strangling her with his bare hands in the process. Well, it
is going to be much easier said than done.
All she wanted was to escape the
past and live like any other nineteen-year-old girl. Her plan definitely didn’t
include the arrogant, tattooed savage, with his awful mohawk hair and lack of
social graces, whose only mission was to stick real close and mess up her life.
But, people aren’t always what
they seem to be, are they?

I strode into the room
confidently and, hands on hips, placed myself between Alex and the TV. Casting
the joystick aside, he leaned back further and raised an eyebrow at me. I
imagined fires being put out by one of his cold stares.
“Don’t you think it’s time to
earn some of the money Nikolai pays you?” I asked quietly, careful not to let
Beth overhear.
“On the contrary, Princess. I
don’t think Nikolai pays me enough. Spending all my days in your sweet company
qualifies me for special, early retirement.”
“Oh really…” I looked him full in
the face and pointed to the chandelier. “The bulb blew this morning and needs
replacing.”
“You’re right.” He nodded and
continued to look at me, with no intention of making a move.
“Are you trying to make me lose
it, or am I just imagining it?”
“No. I’m waiting for you to ask
me nicely.”
“It wouldn’t cross my mind to ask
you for anything.”
“You don’t need to ask me,
exactly, just a few polite words: Alex, would you change the bulb? It’s not
hard, trust me.”
“Are you serious?”
I couldn’t believe that he, of
all people, felt entitled to instruct me about manners. God, he was
infuriating. I regarded him carefully, a wicked smile building at the corners
of my mouth.
“Alex, honey, would you be so
kind as to change the bulb in the chandelier, it would mean such a lot to me?”
I asked in the most sugary voice possible.
I watched as a barely noticeable
look of satisfaction appeared on his face and smiled even more. Some men
actually lived in the conviction that their word must always be the last.
“And please, while you do that,”
I blinked at him like some kind of cartoon, “be sure and get electrocuted,
would you?”
