Carefully, she donned his coat through her arms. She could smell the fresh light fragrance of wood. His coat was so big for her.
Better!
It was not showing marks on her body. His burning eyes on her body were still fresh in her mind. She felt a light of hope when she heard his tender voice which was totally changed into a thundering voice in this hall room.
She was expecting him to take her away from his hell. She heard him bitterly taking the name of them who he demanded to see immediately.
' Gabby addresses him as Boss which means that the monster has a boss. But those goons were also calling him Boss! '
She was ignoring them, why was he shouting at two blonde girls? Who forced her to dress and a taller one slapped her. She didn't put any questions as she considered her kidnapper must have told them to do so.
" Amiya, " He said in a sweet tone like honey melted in his mouth.
She lifted her head and stared at him. He was in a black shirt, lying perfectly on his well-built body. His tie was loosened a bit, chiseled jaw and nose. He had amber eyes. His face was exasperated but his eyes were soft on her. She pushed herself up from the couch and waited for him to speak.
" You can slap her ten times and something else. You can punish her. " He said, beckoning at the blonde girl in a black dress.
Whatever he was saying she understood instantly. He wanted this so the blonde girl could understand her pain. The pain, she went through.
But it wasn't her. She glanced at the girl. Tears were rolling down her eyes and both were shivering with fear. She could comprehend their situation, what they were going through right now. The monster had made her feel the same way.
She shook her head left to right twice in no.
He inclined his head at her, " Why? " He perplexed.
" Their boss told them to do that. If they didn't do as they were told, maybe he could kill her and be worse than killing. He could do anything to them. It's not their fault. They were just carrying orders. " She said in a slow voice.
He was gawking at her astonishingly. He covered it instantly. He waved off the blonde girls.
" Go back to your room. No one will harm you. " He said to her.
Home! He'd not help me.
If he could protect her from this. Why can't he protect her from that monster? Is he the boss or that monster is, she thought.
" I wanna go home. My brother would be thinking me um I'm on my trip with my friends. " She whispered.
He glared at her, " Your brother lost everything in our casino. He is now under millions of dollars' debt. When he'll pay our money. You can go back till then this place is your home. " He said as it was law.
Her heart plummeted. Panic crawled through her body, making her body jerk. Her brain hovered with evil and worse things that could happen to her, " What will you do to me an.. and that monster? " She asked and gulped hard.
" I said you are safe. I promise you. " He said and nodded at Gabby.
" Yes, Boss. " Gabby bent his head and he brought up his hand to hold her.
She flinched and staggered back, " Don't touch her. " He rudely told him, glaring at him.
" Sorry, boss. Please, ma'am." Gabby signed with his hand.
Glancing back at him, she made her way behind him. She wanted to cry and squeal but she wasn't a weak girl. With determination to find a solution out of here, she paced back in the room.
She was engulfing his coat around her arms. She was glazing around in search of what could help her to run away, " Brother must have thought, I'm on the trip. He'll not come for me. And my stupid friend must be thinking that I missed the flight 'cause I was sleeping. Er... And what was he saying? Casino and debt. I need to talk to my brother. " she sighed in frustration.
She walked the distance between her and the door. She turned the knob and peeped out. When she did not see anyone out, she smiled in triumph. She sneaked out of her room to run away from the locked house. With every stride, she was glancing back to know, wasn't anyone chasing her? She walked through the corridor and heard some noises.
She stopped out of the door to hear the weird noises. Whoever was that, he was speaking under his breath, She ignored them and took silent steps. She heard the noises again. She found a window open but curtains were covering the view.
' Maybe this can lead me out, she thought. '
She removed the curtain carefully to jump to the other side. Her face blanched as her eyes widened. She strongly clamped both hands on her mouth. Whatever she saw, she couldn't believe it.
It's the monster's house. He could do anything. He's senseless. Who does such things without locking all doors and windows? She thought.
She shook away the disgusting sight. She was going to turn away from the window to find another window or door which was holding the key to her freedom.
" What are you doing here? " His steely whisper poured in her ear. She shivered but she did not whirl around. She quickly recognized his sweet voice.
He whirled her to face him. He was so close to her, She couldn't remove her eyes from his amber eyes. She blinked and fear filled her as she was caught sneaking out of his hell.
She opened her mouth to lie to him that she was hungry. She smiled at the thought and glanced up at him again. It perplexed him watching in rage but strangely, she wasn't the center of his wrath. It was behind her.
' Maybe, he's going to punish him. Because he hurt her. This time, if he'd ask me to slap him ten times. I'd ask him to increase it twenty times. Monster deserves worse than merely slaps. She thought. '
His thoughts were occupied with Amiya. Was she really a spoiled girl? Her thinking was saying something else to him. He could not take out the view of her curves under his coat, her stare wearing green lenses. It had been a long time since he had been dating Kattie for almost two years. They had kissed uncountable times. But it never felt wrong before. It was his wedding after one hour and it wasn't a good sign to get bored with his future wife without even having her. He had preserved his first night with her after the wedding ceremony. But it didn't mean he was a virgin. He was waiting for Robbie to come back, so he could give him a proper dose in exchange for doing worse things to Amiya. His phone buzzed in his pocket. He fished it out and hoisted it to his ear. Before he could speak anything he saw Amiya standing outside Robbie's room and gawking through the window with shock, puzzlement on her face. Both hands were covering her mouth. She was still wear
Stunned, she stared at him with big round eyes. " W w w " She couldn't make her words out. " Yes or no? " He asked and showed her the screen of his phone's display where it was clearly written ROBBIE. He was about to press the button. Indeed, he wasn't going to do anything like that. He'd send her back to her brother but he would never allow his brother to lay his eyes on her. He could see the pain on her face and water in her eyes, " Yes, " She whispered. ' I know it's wrong. But it's feeling right with you. ' He could hear her loudly pounding heartbeats. He let out a blow and raked his hand, '' Let's go and keep the word required in your mind. You know what marriage means." He whispered as tugged her with him. " B but. " She pulled her arm from his hold. " You have your whole life to stutter. " He couldn't let the whole property slip from his hands and land in Robbie's hands, especially not after what he saw today and after his kinkiest shit.
She slightly parted her lips as she was feeling thirsty. She could still feel his lips moving over her. For one second, she thought he'd not leave her. Her heart took uncountable minutes to return to its normal rhythm. She was wearing a fake smile all the time, pretending to be a happy bride what she promised him when people were coming and congratulating them. There were mostly men at this wedding. Only some decent were who were walking with their lady luck. But she doubted there's lady luck. It wasn't a normal rich family's wedding. He did not introduce her to any family members. There was one, his brother who was caught red-handed, making love with his brother's future to-be-wife who was out there somewhere perhaps snogging with his brother on the back seat of his car. She didn't know if he had any family or not. She sneaked a look at him. He was holding a glass of champagne. His coat was unbuttoned. His cuffs were shining under the slig
He peered at his wrist. It was going to be ten minutes past to leave her. He excused himself and trotted toward his room. It was taking much more time than required. He thought to saunter toward his room. He did not want to leave the party as his guests were stopping him to congratulate him on this important day. Receiving greetings, and blessings from his guests, he paced ahead meanwhile his phone buzzed in his pocket. He took it out of his pocket and glanced at the display. It assured him something was definitely wrong. Did she try to run? He thought. When he got the name of Mark on the display. Immediately, He raised it up to his ear and trotted toward his room. "Did you call the doctor? "He asked and disconnected it as he jostled it back in his pocket. He reached the door of his room. She was lying on the bed, her heels were jutted out on the bed and hanging. He slid his one hand under her back and second under her thighs, "What happened
She couldn't fathom what kind of a Luxurious life he was spending but she could guess he mostly spent it traveling. She hardly ate an apple and a sandwich when his helicopter landed. Barely, It'd pass five minutes. They boarded his private plane. She could get friendly with the traveling part but not with his rudeness and wickedness. She thought she would have an opportunity at the airport to get some help and get rid of him. ' He is smart and cunning. ' His helicopter landed on the runway of the airport. All her hopes were washed away by his wickedness. It was like any other business class. It wasn't her first ride. She was gonna face jet lag after it. She was feeling thirsty. She cursed herself for not carrying a water bottle with her. She rested her head back. Her saliva wasn't helping much. The atmosphere was getting suffocating for her. " You alright? " He asked. He was sitting on the next seat without his laptop. She kn
He was astonished at her. She slept for three hours in the plane and her eyes didn't agree to open. He smiled down at her. His fingers were dug into her soft skin. Her weight was light. She was sleeping like a baby in his arms. Somewhere in the corner of his heart, he was glad it wasn't Kattie in his arms. From that moment, he had seen her. He couldn't take her out of his mind. He wanted to tie her in his arms so she couldn't even think of going away from him. He stepped into his house. He agreed to break his promise to have her and called her his forever. He lifted his eyes to see his mother. His thought was standing in front of him. His blood boiled in his veins. His mother smiled eyeing him. His eyes weren't on his mother. He was glaring beside her. Their faces blanched with shock. He was reining his rage as she was still in his arms, peacefully sleeping. She was helping a lot. His mother was waiting for him in the hall. She had recently lost h
Her body was wrapped in a pure white sheet. Her legs were hanging as he made her sit on the counter. There was only the running water' sound echoing. She was feeling slight pain in the lower part of her navel, swollen. She gazed at him from the corner of her eyes. She could see deep regret on his handsome face. He didn't say sorry to her but asked for his apology in different ways. It was not last night with him that broke her. It was her brother, who was her mother and father both. He sold her because he wanted more money. He sold her to the mafia, to Robbie. She thought her kidnapping was for ransom. But her brother sold her 'cause he lost everything including her in the casino. She wasn't getting the logic behind his concern, he hurt her and showed his fake concern, not fake perhaps, she did not want it. But she couldn't ignore that he protected her from his vicious brother. When the bathtub was filled with lukewarm water. He left her alone w
They were walking down the stairs. His hand was securely around her delicate waist. He was expecting her to put on some fat as he had read on some stupid social media that girls put on some fat after their wedding. He could feel her size. It was the same under his touch. Or he was thinking which he shouldn't think. He could see his family sitting in the living hall. His eyes were on his mother. Who was looking at them with gleaming and happy eyes. She could not conceal her exhilaration seeing them. " Good morning, mom. " He said with a full smile and hugged her. He was fearing his mother would shed tears at any time. " Good morning. I thought. You'll be late. " His mother said gleefully. " Mom, Amiya. " He said. " Hello, " She anxiously replied, flashing her adorable smile. His eyes fell on his brother who was heating his eyes staring at his wife. He left the two women to deal with their new relationship on their own.
He saw dread turning into pure terror as her gaze moved around her. It made him leave everything and closed his arms around her. He did not want to spoil his plan. He held himself back. A muscle tickled in his jaw staring at the rope around her wrists. His cold and hard gaze turned fright when she passed out. Ivan curled his arms around her. He could not shake off his feelings. He took long strides toward her. His gaze was dark and dangerous. "Not so easy, son." Stefano came gasping Svetlana's hand. His gun pressed against his wife's head. He glowered at him. His gaze was trained on them. His breathing was calmed but his beast was ready to claw. "Ethan!" Svetlana cried as she wiggled her arm to get free from his hold. Her face was contorted in fear. His mostly attention was averted to his wife. She was very sensitive to pain. His knuckles turned white around his gun as he fought his anger, "Stefano!" He hissed, tilting his face as his blazing
It was computerized. Kattie punched the code and the door opened. She drove the car inside. 'It feels weird that she's my husband's ex and knows everything about him. About his secret places. She must have come here with him.' It was dark but she could tell this place was beautiful. It reminded her of her kidnapping place. She smiled considering the old days. Her sadness disappeared, recalling time. "You're blushing, Mia," Kattie asked as she drove toward the garage. 'I don't think you'll like it. The mention of how I met Ethan and got married to him could hurt her.' She shook her head, "Just thinking about Ethan," She said, blushing. Kattie parked the car. The engine died. She opened the door and stepped out of the car. "Yeah, only he can make you blush in such a nervous condition." Kattie chuckled as she closed the door of the car after getting off, but it didn't reach her eyes. She was looking nervous as hel
She felt a hand shaking her shoulder and a sligh voice in her ear. She shoved away from the hand that was gripping her arm. "Mia," Someone shook her again, more strongly. She opened her mouth. But a soft hand enclosed her mouth. Her eyes dilated in dread. She glanced straight with big eyes and heaved a deep sigh. She held her hand to push it away from her mouth. But Kattie shook her head. She drew herself into a sitting position. A backpack was hung on her shoulders and the same basket was resting on the edge of the old bed, "I wanna.." Kattie closed her hand over her mouth again. A strange feeling permeated the air. She held her hand and pushed it down, "What are you doing, Kattie?" She asked in a whisper. "Come with me. I'll explain everything to you." Kattie promised. She shook her head as she darted her gaze around to see him. It wasn't fully dark, "Where's Ethan?" She asked. "Mia, we don't have time. For
Kattie passed her a pillow. She took it from her and placed it behind her back. She rested against it and felt relief from back pain. "You're missing him." She asked. 'He didn't send me away from him. He should be the one to inform me, not Michail. If Kattie hadn't pulled his mask. We would have never known it. ' "Yes," She squinted at the door. She was expecting him to walk in at any time. "And you're expecting him too!" Kattie said it with more enthusiasm. She glanced at her and shrugged, "Just feeling it," She said. "I've sent a message to Ethan." Kattie smiled as wiggled her brows. She didn't imagine this side for her. But she loved it, her friendship. She winced and felt tingling in her body, "But our phones aren't working." She lowered her voice. She wasn't sure. Would Michail approve it or not? Kattie drew her face closer, "I told you about the satellite phone." She asked. She nodded, "Did you text,
Her heart was pounding and her hands were shaking. She tried the door. She couldn't jump in this condition. It was locked. 'How did he know about my pregnancy? Ethan trusted him. He must have told him everything. He betrayed him. What would he do to us? Kattie shouldn't be here. I'd be responsible for everything. He would ask for a big ransom. I wish! He isn't working for Stefano.' "Are you working for Stefano?" she asked with a distasteful voice. "Are you planning to jump out of the car in this condition?" His gaze turned to her through the rearview mirror, "It's locked." He added. Kattie winced, "No, it's stupidity, Mia." She moved forward and pulled her hand away and shook her head furiously. Her eyes closed as she tried to calm her breathing, "I wasn't even thinking about it." She said. "You should eat something," Kattie breathed and gave a box of cookies. She could see fear in her eyes and her hands were shaking. She too
When they reached the store again. Everything was sabotaged. Two guards were lying on the ground. They were beaten up badly. Kattie was clenching the gun in both hands. There were five goons. Ivan hurried toward her, his knuckles were white with his hold on them. "Ma'am," He said. She stepped back, "Thank you, you came." Her eyes rested on the blood line on the arm, "Kattie! You're bleeding." She raised her feet to reach her but another bulky guard stopped her. "It's nothing. Stay behind." Kattie said. Her eyes were trained on the goons. "I'm giving you one chance. Drop your weapons and take your steps back out of the place." Ivan snarled. His second hand went at his back for another gun. "We are not going anywhere without her," Their leader pointed his gun at her and laughed. She panicked. Dread made her hands tremble. She felt goosebumps in the exposed skin. "I won't warn you again." He said and pulled the trigge
She grabbed the towel and patted it on her face. After making it dry, she wasn't bothered to change into a beautiful gown today. She paced out and closed the washroom behind her. Her feet halted when she saw a dark brown printed gown lying on one side of the mattress. Her heart hopped in happiness. 'He still cares. I was freaking out about it. But he didn't change. He's accepting our baby. It could be hard for him as his world is far away from love and care. Still, he keeps it in his heart for us.' She grabbed it and hugged it to her chest. She whirled on her feet. She reached the hall and looked around for him. There were only Martino and Lucas sitting at the dining table and having their breakfast. "Good morning, why is it only you two?" She asked, again darting her gaze around. "Ethan is with Robbie and Ivan. I haven't seen Kattie. That's what her name is," Lucas said as he curled his hand around the cup of coffee. "Yes, it
He took Kattie's facial expressions. She jumped to her feet at his sight. He glanced at Ivan. Though, he had kept him updated about everything. He wasn't expecting Kattie in his room. He glanced at his wife. It was late, near midnight. She was sleeping. He sighed, "Shouldn't you be in your room?" He asked intensely, still looking at his wife. "I need to talk to you." She folded her arms over her chest. She was looking pretty upset and annoyed. He knew the reason but it was totally unexpected. "Robbie must be waiting for you." He said, with no expression. Ivan was on his feet. He needed to talk to him. But he could when Kattie was around. She shook her head, "It's about Mia." She said, pressing her lips. "Ivan told me. What happened in the kitchen." He told her, hoping she would end the topic. She wasn't essential for him, but he cared for his family. "Very well! I don't want Svetlana near her. You can send her away, anywhere but
She was watching him through the corners of her eyes. He could easily hurt her and buried her body under the ground, in the woods, or in an abandoned place. A shiver worked down her spine and she quickened her pace. He was following her. Her heart was racing too. 'Why?' She couldn't help darting her glance at him. His dark gaze was looking around as if looking for something. Her fear seemed to vanish for an unknown reason, "Do you need anything? The kitchen is downstairs." She softly told him. He snapped his dark eyes at her. She barely saw people with such intense dark eyes, "No, ma'am." He said. She nodded after a pause and began to pace in the room. "I need to shower." She cringed. "I'm waiting here, ma'am.." He said. She stared at the couch behind him, "Why don't you sit on the couch?" She asked. "I'll be fine. You please carry on." He gestured at the door. She walked in and bolted the do
