Daisy: London's great. It's home. My home is exactly what I wanted it to be. What I wanted all my life. Away from my abusive father and down the road from every bookshop I could imagine. I love romance books like The Next Girl. I love cold nights and sweater weather season which is just around the corner. I love being in my own bubble while working at the library. My life for the past 2 years has been good. Smooth. So when I have my roommate telling me I have a visitor I could only imagine it was my father. I thought it was my father. But you know what thought did? That thought sold me to a sinner. The Don to the Italian Mafia because he owed them a pretty penny. My days are long gone and my nights become more terrifying than ever before. Good job I know how to defend myself against men like him. Antonio: Jerry Harrison. A useless human being who knows no limits. He owed us money and was willing to trade his daughter for his life. I took a gamble on a man who could have been lying to me, but he knew better than to lie to me. I own him the way I now own his daughter. It shouldn't matter to me. I don't feel and I don't love. After a day of travelling and watching my future wife-to-be, I couldn't wait any longer. A simple knock on her shared accommodation would be the end of my life. I didn't want a wife. I enjoy my own space. But one look at my Daisy Soon-to-be-Rosa and I'm done for. Beautiful is what she is. And Mine.

A Sinners Gamble Chapter 7: Memories
Daisy"I screamed so loudly that I'm sure our neighbours could hear. They often phoned the police for disputes. They never really saw me because I couldn't attend school much due to injuries and pain when I couldn't walk, so they assumed I was his wife or something. The police would show up and I'd be locked in my room so I try not to use locks if I can help it. They never did anything. I learnt how to stitch up wounds because more often than not, Jerry would come home and would need some form of treatment.I didn't know what else to do with my spare time and when he would split my skin I'd spent countless hours cleaning it and attempting to stitch it but when I'm right-handed and try doing it with my left I could never get it right so I messed up."Grabbing my hand, the same hand he examined earlier, he shakes his head and speaks. Finally."He stabbed you?" Antonio asks while trying to hold some form of rage in."Twice. The second time he was stone-cold sober actually but I'd just co

Daisy"What happened to your hand?""I had an accident when I was 14. I had to have stitches but my stupid ass went and picked at them which made it scar" I laugh. The memory of itself is pointless. It's hurtful and it reminds me of a time when I couldn't defend myself."What kind of accident?""It doesn't matter. I learnt my lesson after that. Briefly"We travel in silence for the remainder of the drive, his hand stays on my covered thigh and my hand stays on top of his but it still feels awfully heavy with tension.-The night is full of his family dancing and mingling, Antonioni's Nieces and Nephews running around and doing exactly what children love to do.The music stops briefly before the MC comes on to ask for the bride and groom to attend the dance floor for their first dance as Mr and Mrs.Surely he knows it isn't real. This isn't what neither of us wanted and I will be sure to give my father exactly what I think of him tomorrow or whenever I see the sorry excuse for a man."

Antonio Yesterday was spent waiting for confirmation that Daisy had picked her dress and at the very last minute she had picked a dress.She barely spoke to me on the way to the manor and once we did arrive, she asked where she was sleeping and then made her way over there. I didn't see him at all yesterday which was fine by me.She must be expecting to be sleeping in her own room but as of tonight, my wife will be with me. In our room in bed with me."You ready?" My dad asks me as I stand at the chapel waiting for my bride to head down here to me."It's arranged. It means nothing""Me and your mother were in an arranged marriage and look at us" he says while smirking at me. At his age, he's still a handsome chap and I would say that because I look exactly like him."Jesus. Fuck I didn't know that" I say as I look at the door again."My only bit of advice is to be faithful son. Arranged or not she wasn't in the wrong. It was her father's doing and she's paying a hefty price for it""

DaisyThe last 3 weeks have gone by quickly. What on earth has my father gotten me into?Week one wasn't so bad.I spent the first few days numb to the idea of becoming someone's wife.Let alone that someone be an asshole and self-absorbed. Then the package showed up on my doorstep a few days later.It was A book on the Mafia which threw me for a loop.Mafia?He's in the Mafia.I wonder what he does for the families.And a singular black rose with the thorns cut off and a note which read:"See you in 3 weeks Princess"I didn't do a lot the first few days after that but I did continuously think about the pros and the cons of this. More cons than anything else.-Week two I had become a nervous wreck.Work was going by quickly which meant the day was nearing an end and my nerves couldn't handle the stress or pressure my father had put me under. So eating has become my favourite thing.C.J. has done nothing but soothe me, making me feel like I have options but I know that deep down I don

Just before we arrived at her place of home I told myself it would be a quick proposal of what I wanted and then I would leave.Money was supposed to be the main idea, but then I saw her and I couldn't pass off the opportunity to get her with my ring on her finger. It was a quick decision I shouldn't have made. I like my life the way it is and I have always said I don't want nor do I need a woman to change that lifestyle. I assumed with my aura and power radiating everywhere that she would obey and agree but what I didn't expect was for her to not give a rat's ass about her father.The man raised her if all that he says is correct. We didn't do an extensive search on her background just her details and where she lived just to make sure he wasn't a lying son of a bitch on top of being a thieving bastard. "Did you manage to get it?" I ask my brother as we get back in the car."By get it do you mean her phone and her friend's phone signal to hack into?""Yeah that," I say to Max as I

DaisyEverything seems to go well these days.My job has been relaxing to a degree. I love the feel of walking down each aisle, running my fingers along the spine of books and feeling like I have the world at my feet.Some parts of my life I wish would stay hidden which is why I ended up in central London.It's busy and I more than likely have a higher chance of getting hit by a car than ever seeing my father again which is a disturbing bonus if I might add."Daisy doo" C.J. shouts as I head through the door. It's September which in London means the weather is short old. Thankfully we had a good summer but now it seems like the rainy season is about to hit.Big time."Yeah?" I shout back. We share a 2 bedroom place and half all bills which works well for us. C.J. works at the doctors as a mental health nurse whereas I work at our local 3-floor library."You have a package. It's a big package today" she says which is still bizarre. Yesterday I received a bracelet in the mail. Expensive

Antonio"You know I hate being called in this early" My underboss Xanders says as he sits in the chair across from me."Yeah well, I needed a plan on something and I couldn't ask my brother seems how he's just arrived back from Italy. In a foul mood" I point out."Of course. What's going on?""I've got the casinos usually standard inspection today and I have to be present but I need you to pick a guy up for me""Go on" he says casually sitting in the chair eating a mars bar."Jerry Harrison.""And who is he may I ask?""An idiot with a problem"Jerry Harrison is an addict. Drugs, alcohol and gambling.You name it, he's probably done it. The idiot decided it be best to take a gamble in my casino last night and raked up a good amount of debt. He's been told to not enter unless he knows he can pay after his tab is cleared and yet the CCTV footage showed a clear image of him thinking he can walk away.Not for much fucking longer."What's he done?""He tried to put his hands up 3 waitresse
