Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Rachel was shocked.She couldn't believe he'd seen her so easily.She didn't know what to say.She was torn between so many different emotions.

"What are you doing in here?" Victor asked in a deep voice.

"Enjoy the moonlight," Rachel said calmly.

She stood up to face him, hiding the bread and milk behind her back.

Victor stared at her expressionlessly for moment, then he narrowed his eyes as he said, "Show me what you have."

Rachel furrowed her brows in mock confusion, trying to pretend she had no idea what he was talking about.

"What do you mean?"

She even managed to make herself sound surprised.

"I don't have anything."

"You have three seconds to show me," Victor said in a voice so completely devoid of emotion that it was oppressive.

Rachel suppressed a shiver, and it wasn't just from the cold night air.

However, she didn't say anything.She just stared right back at him.

Victor's already dark eyes darkened even further, making them look like endless black pools.

"Three," he said, starting to count.

"Okay fine.Here," Rachel said in exasperation.

She took a deep breath and held the bread and milk out to him.

It was useless to try and hide anything from him, especially when he already knew something was amiss.

The hard, cold expression on his face softened slightly when he saw the food.

Bread and milk? Why had she snuck out here at this time of night just to steal bread and milk? Victor looked between her and the food.

He narrowed his eyes in suspicion and said, "Rachel, what are you up to? What kind of game are you playing at?"

Game? His callous comment made Rachel angry.

"Believe it or not, I just came here to get bread and milk."

She stared bravely up at him as she spoke.She could see by the look on his face that he was suspicious.

He thought she'd stolen something else, like a damn thief.

Without another word, she turned around and left.

Victor glared at her retreating back, then down at the bread and milk in his hands.

His expression darkened.

Olivia knew when Victor would return home.She'd rushed over to greet him, and had been just a minute too slow to intervene in the interaction between Victor and Rachel.
