Chapter 16 Kitchen Spices

• Chapter 16
• Amanda stood in the kitchen, nervously rolling dough between her hands. The sleek countertops of Vicktor's mansion gleamed under the soft lights. Everything here was so polished, so perfect, and she felt so out of place. She couldn’t believe she was here, in this huge mansion, after everything that had happened. Her life had changed drastically in such a short time.
• Her mind wandered back to that night. The night she had sneaked into his club, desperate and hungry, and tried to steal enough money to buy food. That’s when everything had shifted. Vicktor had caught her, his cold, piercing eyes locking with hers. She thought it would be the end, but instead, he had brought her here. He had given her a job, a place to stay. It all felt surreal.
