Chapter 6 - Miss Belli.

Light poured in through the windows, Sarah slowly opening her tired eyes. She was back in her room on her own, not remembering how she got there. Sarah sat up on the bed, rubbing at her eyes. She noticed a box neaty gift wrapped on the table beside her. Slowly she took the large box in her hands. There was a small note written in rather neat handwriting.

"For my beautiful Miss Belli."

Sarah tilted her head in curiousity as she unwrapped the paper from the box, slowly peering inside. Inside was a beautiful red fabric. Sarah reached in and took it out. Holding it out in awe, she realised it was a beautiful ruby dress. Made from real silk and decorated with rubies. The dress was long and seemed rather old fashion. Yet it was beautiful. Sarah gasped, running her hands down the soft silk.

"For me...? Its so pretty."

Sarah could not resist. Slowly she undressed and climbed into the beautiful dress. It was a perfect fit. It showed off her curvacious figure well although she was not used to wearing no bra. She admired herself in a small mirror on the wall. She felt like a princess. Was she meant to feel this way?

Sarah took a small brush from the chest of drawers beside her bed. She slowly gazed into the mirror, brushing her long strands of hair. She felt beautiful. Never had she felt this way. Always she was made to feel plain and average. Now it was her time to shine. A large smile grew on her face before peering back down into the box. There was small ruby heels to match. Putting them on, she walked out into the corridor. She did not know who had left the gift for her but she had a feeling that it was Riccardo. Walking down the dark hallway, her heels left a loud echoing sound. She walked down the stairs, hoping someone would be around. Peering into the dining room, she seen Daniella who was cleaning at the table. Sarah strolled in cautioustly. She did not trust Daniella. Especially after what she had done last night, as much as Sarah secretly enjoyed it.

Daniella's eyes glanced to her left, seeing her.

"Good morning, Miss. You look very beautiful today..."

Sarah could not help but smile. She was eager to learn more about Daniella. She was such a mysterious woman. So beautiful yet so cold. Knowing what she had been through so far, nothing would suprise her. She remembered the old man that chased her last night. A horrified shiver ran down her spine as she wrapped her arms around herself in a protective way.

"Thank you, Daniella...Although I could never be as beautiful as you."

Daniella paused from her work and faced Sarah. Her cold expression was frightening. She slowly walked towards her and stopped close to her face. A large smile grew on her perfect face. Such an alluring smile.

"Thank you, Miss..."

Daniella leaned in, her lips pressed firmly against Sarah's. Slowly she walked back to the table and resumed her cleaning. Sarah stood in shock, yet again. Her fingertips ran along her kissed lips. She slowly approached Daniella, standing beside her. She was curious about the dress. She was also curious about the kiss...and many other things.

"Um...Do you know who left this dress for me, Daniella?"

She slowly watched Daniella. Her hand cleaned in a repeating circular motion, only cleaning the one spot. She was indeed and odd woman.

"Master Riccardo...he wishes to see you, Miss. He is in the restroom."

Sarah knew the restroom by now. Riccardo had showed her, yet she had not been for a proper clean since she arrived here. Sarah thanked Daniella, leaving her to do her cleaning and wandered through the kitchen and out the other side. Sarah stepped down the small steps noticing that the restroom door was wide open. Cautiously, she entered.

"Riccardo? Are you there?"

A slam could be heard and footsteps. Out of nowhere, Riccardo appeared from one of the toilets from the back. It was the one that was always shut. Sarah wondered what he was up to but knew it wasnt for her to know.

Riccardo paused in front of her, his mouth opened slightly, staring at the dress she wore.

"Beautiful...Just beautiful, my dear. I knew it would look perfect on you."

Sarah played with her hands nervously. She felt rather shy with compliments especially from men. Her eyes gazed down at her hands as he approached her. He slowly reached out with his hand, tilting her head up towards him with his fingertips.

"Do I not get a thank you?"

A smirk appeared on his face, leaning in towards her lips and leaving a gentle kiss. His smile grew wider as he savoured the kiss.

"Thank you, Riccardo..Its beautiful."

Again he smiled. His eyes lowered down onto her chest, admiring her beautiful breasts. Now he could see the proper shape of them. They were large, rather like Fiona's. He did not understand why Fiona has such large breasts for her weight. He did not really care. It was something he admired. Sarah's breasts fit well with her curvacious body. Before he could realise, his hand ran down the front of her chest. Her bare neckline felt so smooth and the shape of her breasts against his hand was enough for him to sigh in complete bliss. Sarah began to nervously react to his touch like before. Her eyes shut tight, a part of her wanting him to take her here and now. Another part knowing it was wrong.

Riccardo's hand traced up her neckline and up past her chin. He slowly stroked her soft flustered cheeks, admiring her. How he longed for the right moment. He did not wish to make love to her here. Not now. He had a special place in mind for their special moment.

"I must leave the castle for a while, Sarah. I shall be back in the evening. Please...return to your room."

Sarah sighed. She wasnt used to living somewhere with lack of technology. She would watch tv or play videogames to pass the time. She knew she would never find such things in an old castle like this.

"And do what exactly?" her tone was rather angry. Riccardo smirked and traced his fingertip over her lips. He knew she was right. There was not much to do here. They did have a tv but it didnt work. All they had was music and books. They had much more in the castle but that was not for Sarah to find out. The useless mumbling homunculus. If Sarah was to find out about them, she would surely try to escape. It was already bad enough she had been chased by Lorenzo. Although Riccardo did not know about what Daniella had been doing.

"There is books to read upstairs..and music. Or why not take a bath? I'm sure you will find something to do, my dear."

He reached down and kissed her farewell and swiftly left. Sarah was left standing on her own. Realising she was in the restroom already, she shut the door and began to undress.

The cold air touched her soft skin, her body shivering slightly. She placed her dress and shoes beside the bath and began to run the water. Steam rose from the water as she waited, her arms stroked along her naked body. As she stood there, the door was suddenly pushed open and in appeared Riccardo. He ran over to the back of the bathroom, not realising Sarah and grabbing his keys he had left. Walking back up to the main part of the bathroom, there he saw Sarah standing there in complete horror. His eyes widened seeing her quivering naked body. She did her best to cover up what she could. He could not help but give a satisfied smile, a deep chuckle in his throat.

"I do apologise, Miss..."

His eyes slowly gazed her over once more before leaving. The door shut firmly and Sarah let out a sigh of relief, slumping onto the floor.

Riccardo walked down the hallway, taking his coat and his hat. It was the same outfit he wore to kidnap Fiona. Yet he could not think of Fiona. His mind was on Sarah. What he had just seen had pleased him even more. Sitting in his car, he sat silently daydreaming to himself. The image of the cowering naked Sarah he had just seen. His eyes shut with pleasure, his hand slowly caressed underneath his tattered pants. He could not help but touch himself. The urge was so much. He had so much tension in him and he wanted to get rid of it. Shaking his head, he took out his hand. He knew he wanted to save it all for Sarah. He wanted to show her how much he cared. Then she would be his. Thats all that he wanted. Then his plan could take place.

"mmmm...Sarah. Such a beautiful azoth you are."

He sighed, starting up his car and drove off down the silent road.
