The tinted windows made it impossible to see inside, but something about the vehicle seemed out of place.Suddenly, the door slid open, and two men in suits stepped out.

Chapter two-The terms of my captivity
_Emilia's POV_Marco's words hung in the air, leaving me feeling stunned and confused. Insurance? What could he possibly mean?"I don't understand," I said, trying to keep my voice steady.Marco leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers together. "Your father, Emilia, has something that belongs to me. Something of great value."I felt a surge of fear. What could my father have possibly gotten himself into?"What is it?" I asked, trying to keep my voice calm.Marco smiled, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Oh, Emilia. You're going to have to wait and see. Let's just say that your father's... indebtedness to me is quite substantial."I felt a chill run down my spine. My father was in trouble, and I was the pawn being used to ensure his cooperation."What do you want from me?" I asked, trying to keep my voice firm.Marco leaned forward, his eyes locking onto mine. "I want you to stay here, with me, until your father pays his debt. You'll be my... guest, shall we say."I felt a sur

_Emilia's POV_I spent the rest of the day exploring my new surroundings, trying to get a feel for the layout of the estate. I discovered a beautiful garden, a private movie theater, and even a swimming pool.But despite the luxuries, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was trapped. Marco's words kept echoing in my mind: "You'll be safe here. I promise you that."Safe? I didn't feel safe. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand.As the sun began to set, I heard a knock at the door. I opened it to find a woman standing in the hallway, carrying a tray of food."Dinner, Miss Rossini," she said, smiling. "Mr. De Luca thought you might be hungry."I took the tray from her, feeling a pang of gratitude. "Thank you," I said. "What's your name?""I'm Maria," she replied. "I'll be taking care of you during your stay."I smiled, feeling a sense of relief. Maybe having Maria around would make this whole experience more bearable.As I ate my dinner, I couldn't help but wonder what the rul

Chapter four-The party
_Emilia's POV_I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. Maria, the maid, had helped me get ready for the party, styling my hair and applying makeup to my face.I looked... different. More polished, more refined. But underneath the surface, I was still the same person. Scared, uncertain, and trapped.I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. I had to get through this night, no matter what.As I turned to leave, I caught sight of the necklace glinting in the light.

He looked... stunning, dressed in a tailored tuxedo that accentuated his broad shoulders and chiseled features."Emilia, you look beautiful," he said, his eyes roving over me.I felt a flush rise to my cheeks, but I tried to play it cool. "Thanks," I said, trying to sound nonchalant.Marco offered me his arm, an

Chapter five-The truth
_Emilia's POV_I stood there, frozen in place, as Marco walked away. What did he mean by "playing with fire"? And who was I supposed to be careful around?I shook my head, trying to clear the cobwebs. I had to focus on finding out the truth about my family's past and their connection to the De Lucas.I turned and walked back to my room, my mind racing with questions and theories. As I entered my room, I noticed a piece of paper on my bedside table.I walked over and picked it up, recognizing the handwriting as Maria's."Meet me in the garden at midnight," the note read. "Come alone."I felt a shiver run down my spine. What did Maria want to talk to me about? And why did she want me to come alone?I looked at the clock and saw that it was already 11:45 PM. I had to make a decision quickly.I decided to go to the meeting, my curiosity getting the better of me. I made my way to the garden, trying to be as quiet as possible.As I entered the garden, I saw Maria waiting for me. She was dre

Emilia was already there, sipping a cup of coffee and staring out the window.I cleared my throat, expecting her to acknowledge me. But she didn't even flinch."Good morning, Emilia," I said, my voice firm but controlled.Still, she ignored me. Her gaze remained fixed on the window, her expression unreadable.I felt a spark of irritation ignite within me. Who did she think she was, ignoring me like that?I walked over to her, my footsteps deliberate and slow. "Emilia," I repeated, my voice low and husky. "I'm talking to you."But she still didn't respond. It was as if she was intentionally trying to provoke me.And it was working. my eyes scanning the room until they landed on Sophia. She was lying on the bed, a sly smile spreading across her face as she saw me."Marco, darling," she purred, stretching out her arms to me.I ignored her, my eyes narrowing as I looked at Emilia.

A night to remember
Emilia's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at me. I reached out and gently wiped them away, my fingers brushing against her skin."Don't cry, Emilia," I said, my voice soft and gentle. "You're mine now. I'll take care of you."Emilia looked up at me, her eyes searching mine. And for a moment, I thought I saw something there, something that gave me hope.But then she looked away, her shoulders slumping in defeat. "Let's just go," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.I nodded, feeling a pang of guilt. I knew I had been rough on her, that I had pushed her too far.But I couldn't help myself.

The truth revealed
I stormed into Marco's office, my heart racing with anger and determination. I had been thinking about my parents nonstop since the night of the gala, and I was convinced that Marco was hiding something from me."Marco, we need to talk," I said, my voice firm and commanding.Marco looked up from his desk, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Ah, Emilia," he said. "What can I do for you?"I walked over to his desk, my eyes locked onto his. "I want to know about the deal you made with my parents," I said. "I want to know why they haven't come for me."Marco leaned back in his chair, a sly smile spreading across his face. "Ah, Emilia," he said. "You really are naive, aren't you?"I felt a surge of anger at his words, but I pushed it aside. I needed to stay calm, to get the truth out of him."What do you mean?" I asked, my voice firm.Marco leaned forward, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I mean that your parents didn't exactly...sell you to me out of the goodness of their hearts," he said

I could feel his eyes on me, boring into my skin, and I knew that I had to keep my guard up."You're a clever girl, Emilia," Marco said, his voice low and husky. "I'll give you that. But you're not clever enough to outsmart me."I smiled, a cold, calculated smile. "We'll see about that, Marco," I said, my voice firm.Marco laughed, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Oh, I'm shaking in my boots," he said.I took a step forward, my eyes locked on Marco's. "You should be," I said, my voice low and menacing.Marco raised an eyebrow, his expression intrigued. "And why is that?" he asked.I smiled again, my eyes glinting with determination. "Because I'm not going to let you win," I said. "I'm not going to let you keep me trapped here forever."Marco chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "We'll see about that, Emilia," he said. "We'll see about that."I knew that I had to be careful, that I had to keep my wits a
