“Damin it!” he screamed and kicked the bed. “But if she's with her father...”

‘She’s not there and you know it!’, the voice in his head complained. ‘Stop being a child and go after her! Before there's no turning back. She will die!’

Eraldo went to a convenience store to buy some cheap snacks. Something that obviously didn't exist in Vincenzo's house. He wanted a very specific peanut. Upon leaving, he was completely relaxed. A man stuck a knife in his stomach, pulled out his shopping bag and ran away. Eraldo pulled out his gun and shot the man who wanted to rob him. He went to his car, but the stab was lethal, and he didn't get to the mansion.

The problem this would cause was that no one was yet aware that Lina was down there. However, she was not the only prisoner.

Two days passed and no one knew anything about her. Vince didn't ask about Lina, but waited for someone, or rather Nico, to give him updates on her whereabouts. When he got absolutely nothing from anyone, Vince decided to l

    “Now, you owe me,” the seductive man whispered in Lina's ear, applying light kisses there. She held on to his arm to keep herself from collapsing.“What do you want?” She asked, unable to think straight. “You. Indefinitely.”*MINUTES BEFORE*“Damn, Lina...” Maddie said, with her eyes wide open. Lina turned around and saw Noah walking in with a skinny blonde. Lina moved her body, facing away from the couple.“Screw him!” Lina said quietly, drinking some more of her Moscow Mule.“He's an asshole...” Maddie shook her head negatively while looking disapprovingly at Noah and his girlfriend.Lina continued to drink. She was already on the third mug, when Maddie grabbed her arm, indicating with her head that it was enough.“Maddie, tell me the truth... Am I that unattractive?”“Oh, for God’s sake, Lina! You're beautiful, you just don't dress like all those other girls. And you also don’t behave like them,” Maddie patted Lina on the back.“You only say that because you're my friend,

    As the man approached her, and she couldn't see his eyes very well, as they were covered by shadows, until he got very close. The man must’ve been about two meters tall.Vincenzo didn't usually pay attention to any woman, just because she wanted him to. However, that girl's offer indicated that she was very naive, or very stupid, or both. She probably had no idea who she was talking to.“A kiss and nothing more?” He asked, seductively. His dark eyes scanned her, and Lina felt like she was naked in front of him. She swallowed hard.“Yes, a kiss and nothing more,” she said with confidence.‘A shame,’ he thought. The woman had a spectacular body. Besides, it was obvious that she wasn't one of those ladies who tried to seduce him at all costs.“On the dance floor,” she added. Vincenzo frowned.“Why there?” He narrowed his eyes. That could be a trap.She glanced at her back, then turned to him again.“I... I want to prove that I'm desirable,” Lina said with all the courage she could muster

    “Our boss ordered us to come and fetch you, miss,” the tallest of them said, with a serious and emotionless voice.“Well, you did what he asked. You guys came all this way, haven’t you?” Lina replied. “But if he wants me to get in that car so much, he'd better come talk to me himself!”The men didn't insist. Lina passed them and continued walking. Luckily, the bus was arriving, and she ran to it, getting in eagerly.“My goodness, girl, calm down!” said the driver.“Sorry, ma’am!” she apologized and looked behind the vehicle. The black car was no longer there. She let out the breath she was holding and collapsed onto one of the seats. During the entire journey, she kept looking out the window, but she didn't see any cars like that one along the way. Lina got off at the bus stop and looked around. Nothing. She bolted to her building and quickly ran up the stairs. Lina realized that she would have to stay hungry until her friend returned. They were out of food and Lin

    Lina agreed. “One...”“Two...” “Three!” the two counted together and closed their eyes when Maddie opened the box. They opened their eyes and, inside, a thin chain, with a small moon as a pendant, rested on the velvet. Maddie removed the jewelry and looked at it closely. “I think this is real gold…” Lina grabbed the box and turned it over in her hands. There was absolutely nothing there that could indicate who the sender and recipient of such a gift could be. Maddie saw that behind the moon, there was a small button. She squeezed it, but realized it was meant to be pulled. She did so and a small role appeared. She pulled it completely out. “Read. I don't have my glasses here...” Lina took the note and read it out loud. “Use this.” “And that’s it?” Maddie asked and took the note. Even though she couldn't read it very well, it was quite obvious that the message only had two words.

    If there was one thing Vince hated, it was being deceived, used, devalued. He felt himself going through these three stages, with that woman with honey hair and eyes like the sea.‘That hot bitch had the nerve to make me look like a fool!’, he thought, angrily, as he punched the table. Yes, she was hot as hell, and he wasn't about to let her get out of that situation without him getting something out of it. Never, since he became a man and started going out with girls, had he been treated like that, like a simple... He didn't even have an adjective for that! A mere means to reach an ex-boyfriend who certainly couldn’t even compare to him! ‘So humiliating…’, he closed his eyes as he thought about it. A knock on the door and Gambini entered. “Ah, Mr. Bonaccorso ... Is there a problem?” Gambini asked, rubbing his hands nervously. He saw when Lina almost ran out of the V.I.P. room and, as she passed by him, she said absolutely nothing other than tha

    “What deal do you want to make?” Lina gathered her courage and asked. That man wouldn't give up easily, so it was better to hear what he wanted at once. “You said yourself that you weren't interested in agreements with me, since I was not capable of fulfilling what I promised you, in the club, while I was drunk.” She insisted on emphasizing the situation in which she had promised him something before. “Well, that was before. Now, I want to propose something else.” “What if I don't accept it? Can I leave without any major problems?” she asked. “Yes, I will not interfere in your life. You won't interfere with mine,” he said and smiled. “You've already lost your job, let's say I can turn a blind eye, now. Besides, I won't force a woman to be mine. Even if I see the fire beneath your skin, baby.”Lina clicked her tongue, her cheeks flushed. “Right. And what is your proposal?” She tried not to sound impatient. Vince noticed it and didn't care. “You

    “Very well,” he replied and nodded briefly. “I'll give you a week. You have one week to give me an answer.” Vince reached into his jacket and pulled out a card and handed it to her. “Thank you,” Lina responded automatically as she held up the card. “When you decide, you call me at this number. Only when you decide you want it. If your answer is no, you don't need to call me at all.” “Deal. Can I get out, now?” she asked, nervously. The car was already parked in front of her building. Lina smiled, even more anxiously. If he knew her address, he had really wanted to know about her life.“Fucking shit!’ she cursed her stupid idea and also, Noah, for making her act like an imbecile. ‘No, it’s my fault. He didn’t force me to be stupid.’ “Sure. But...” She stopped with her hand on the car handle. “But…?” “Are you sure you don't want to make out first? Without commitment. Maybe this will be th

    Gambini was already waiting for Lina, with a beautiful smile on his face. When Vincenzo gave the order to rehire the girl, he was happy. She needed and deserved that job. “How good it is to have you back, Lina!” “Thank you, Gambini! That ridiculous guy let you take me back, didn't he?” she asked and Gambini looked around. “Shh! If it reaches his ears...” “Tell me... Is he really from the mafia?” Gambini took a deep breath. “He is, Lina.” “And you let me serve that man?” she asked in astonishment, looking like she felt completely betrayed. “And what did you expect me to do? He's the biggest guy here. Owner of almost all of New York. I'm just an Italian trying to survive in these lands, Lina!” She sighed. “Next time, will you let me know when I'm going to deal with a client like that before I start to serve, please?” “So you can get a better hold of your tongue?” he asked,

    “I hate. I hate her!” what he meant was that he hated loving her, he hated the fact that she shared Scarpinato's blood. But not her. He would never hate her. How could he ever hate her?“Ok,” Nico said and didn't insist any further. “Then, Vincenzo, don't complain about your life and the consequences of your immature act. Also, act like a fucking Capo if you want to be respected like one!”With that, Nico closed the door and left. He would look for Lina himself. But first, he needed to take care of his wound. He was already dizzy.Nico went to the doctor and let the man take care of his shoulder. So, he called Maddie. She answered the phone quickly.“Did you find Lina?” she asked, hopefully.“Not yet. But I will.”“Thank you, Nico. And... Your shoulder?”Nico smiled. She did worry about him!“I've already been to the doctor. How are you?”“Good. Nervous. Concerned. But fine.”“Okay, babe. I'll find Lina and talk to you. Anything, call me, okay?”“Okay…” she said, shyly.Nico wanted to

    Vince was far away in thought. He was reliving the death of his parents, everything that happened and he didn't hear what Eraldo said or when Lina shouted for him to do something.“Vince!” she screamed, but he continued with glassy eyes, looking down. Eraldo dragged her away.When Vince came back to reality, it was with Maddie poking his arm.“Where is Lina?” the girl asked, shyly.“Ah... I think she went home,” he replied, looking around and not seeing any sign of Lina. But that was what she said she would do. And he said this to Maddie, still a bit apathetic.“Okay. Thanks for everything,” Maddie said. Until that moment, Nico still wasn't there.Maddie went home. She didn't have her bag, but she had a key inside the plant pot. When she got there, she called for Lina, but there was no response.“Lina?” she asked, with a feeling of deja vu [1].After looking around the entire apartment, she knew that her friend wasn't there and hadn't even set foot there. How could she? There was only

    “What are you doing? And what about only Italian women?” she wanted to know about this, before revealing whose daughter she was.“Fuck the Council! Anyone who says anything will be fucking shot!” he growled and took a deep breath. “Guendalina Watson, will you marry me and make me the happiest man in the world?”Vince had decided to keep his distance from Lina. He didn't want to get involved with her anymore. But when she was in danger, when they took her from hiding, he thought he would lose her again. And, perhaps, forever. And the love he refused to admit he felt for her needed to be declared. He needed to tell her. He needed her.It wasn't part of the plan for him to appear there in the middle of the gunfire. He should have stayed safe while she was rescued. However, he couldn't stay away. He wanted her as his wife and, for that, he had to protect her himself. If not, what kind of man would he be?Vince saw when the car carrying Bartolomeo left, as he stayed on one of the nearby st

    “Me too. And Lina... Vince was worried about you. They are looking for you.”Lina turned to Maddie.“I bet this is nothing more than his sense of honor. He does not want me. He made it very clear with loud words. I told you that,” Lina let out a sigh. “But he thinks he’s ‘the honorable one’.”“I know. And I also know that you love him.”Lina lowered her head.“I'm so stupid. He doesn't love me and he never will,” she said and looked at Maddie, her eyes full of sadness. “And it doesn't matter, you know? He himself said that they only marry Italian women. Good for him who doesn't love me.” Lina shrugged, looking down.Raffaele was listening to the conversation. It's not like he can help it. When Lina said that Bonaccorso didn't want her, he thought the man was crazy. He may have been enchanted by Maddie, but he wasn't blind. Lina was beautiful and cultured. She wasn't one of those women who are found in droves out there. Okay, she wasn't Italian. But, actually... She was, even if mixed

    Raffaele had been following Maddie and Lina for weeks. He thought the chestnut was beautiful and became interested in her. And by the time he was assigned the task, Nico had already blocked Maddie's number. Every day that Raffaele followed her, he thought more and more about her, waiting for the opportunity to talk to Maddie. But he knew that wasn't possible. Raffaele traveled to Las Vegas in order to solve some problems and, when he returned, he learned that Lina had been captured and tortured. In the end, she was Bartolomeo's daughter.The last news was good, after all, it made things more possible for him to get closer to Maddie! Besides, poor Lina wouldn’t suffer anymore.He knew very well who Nicola Rizzi was. The right-hand man of Vincenzo Bonnaccorso, the man who held two positions at the same time within the mafia: Sottocapo and Consigliere. This was an extremely rare feat.“He's not old!” Maddie defended Nico.‘Yes, yes... If I'm not mistaken, he's already over thirty! For yo

    “Sure as fuck I will! I don't know what the hell they're going to do with Lina, now that Maddie is there,” Vince said, nervously, feeling his hands shaking.“Weird place to bring the girls. This place is pretty fancy for a captivity,” Nico's comment was pertinent.“Well, when we break into this shit, we'll know how fancy that fucked up place is,” Nico could hear his boss's anxiety.Inside the building, Maddie was taken upstairs. She realized that the place was luxurious and that it didn't exactly look like the prison she expected to find Lina in. It looked more like a castle than a dungeon.“This way, signorina,” the handsome man said. He looked at Maddie with interest. “Tell me something, Maddie, do you have a boyfriend?”Maddie was shocked by the nerve of the guy. Was he being serious?“Ah ... No.” She replied awkwardly. “But that's none of your business now, is it?” She closed her fist next to her own body. How could that man dare to ask something like that when he had kidnapped he

    That was the first time that Lina said openly and clearly that she loved Vince, apart from when declared herself to the man himself. No, she wasn't in love. She loved him.Bartolomeo's face turned red. He looked like he was going to have a stroke at any moment. Lina didn't lower her head.“You... You...” Bartolomeo stammered. “Did you let him deflower you?”Bartolomeo knew very well how things could be. He, when he was with Maryam, had the happiest moments of his life. Very intense. From what he knew about Vincenzo Bonaccorso, the man was a sex machine. Women went crazy with him. And Guendalina had been the only one to visit his house, lately. The only one to sleep with him and return the next day, and the next, and the next.“I let him do whatever he wanted with me,” she said, defiantly.Bartolomeo had not lived with his daughter but just knowing that she was his daughter and who the man she had been involved with was, he could imagine all the naughty things she had done and that was

    Someone came in and placed something heavy and metallic on top of the white dresser she had seen before, next to the dark, carved wooden door. Shortly after, the door closed, and she swore she heard a ‘click’. That meant she had been locked inside.Lina was ready to sit down again, but the door opened again.Steps. The bed dipped a little at the edge. She was terrified that someone would climb into bed with her, but no. Apparently, the person sat there.“Guendalina?” a man spoke. “I know you’re not sleeping.” She wasn't sure if she knew that person, as the voice didn't seem completely strange to her.Lina thought it was better not to pretend. These people were powerful and dangerous, and she wasn't interested in taking another beating.Lina sat down and, when she looked at the visitor, she saw that he was the same man as before. The one who had pulled her hair. The one with eyes like hers.“Who are you?” she asked, almost in a whisper. “What do you still want from me?” She was tearful
