Alexandra POV
I step out of the shower and lotion my skin. Sylvia has been unbearable the last few days. With Polina gone she has been picking fights with every servant in the house. I've been hiding in my room. Maximus hasn't even visited me, which I know is her doing. She is punishing me for Polina being gone.
I slip my robe on and step into my room. I step toward my walk-in closet when there is a firm knock on my door. At first, I tighten my robe, but the second knock has a shiver of excitement traveling down my spine. I pull the robe off my shoulder, so the top of my breasts are exposed. When I open the door my blood freezes in my veins.
With every bit of strength I have, I try to force the door closed but the man on the other side forces it open. His face is covered in a balaclava
