Captivation: Want Nothing But You

“Hello… Miss Bennet?” Ameer paused realizing that there had been no response from the other end of the line after speaking a lot so quickly.

 “She is asleep,” Victor replied after a while. 

Ameer was quite shocked on hearing the guy’s voice. He examined the caller ID on his phone as he unconsciously removed it from his ear. The number was Rachel’s. He couldn’t figure out who the man that just spoke was.

When he said that Rachel had fallen asleep, what did he mean by that? Could he have possibly been with Rachel?

Ameer’s grip on the phone tightened and he asked, “I’m lost. Who might you be? How is Miss Bennet’s phone in your possession? Where is she?”

Beep!

Victor hung up before Ameer completed his words. Ameer was astonished and irritated when the beep came through. His gaze remained fixed on the screen, which indicated that the call was over. He could hear the man’s voice in his head. In the silence, the man’s speech reverberated in his ears, and he remained still.

The call record appeared on the phone screen as Victor was ready to put the phone down after hanging up, and his eyes became dim. He then erased Ameer’s call history and banned his phone number. 

After that, he returned the phone and acted like he had done nothing.

Using his best judgment, he guessed that Rachel would be coming up any moment. He knew that it was not the best moment to try to push her to accept him. Victor stepped out of the room and down the stairs whilst he contemplated that.

Downstairs, Rachel drank from a glass of water and sat calmly.

In anticipation of Victor’s departure, she waited. The servants were once again being ordered to clean the kitchen by Lukas. Then, he caught sight of Victor.
