“No! Please!!”My pleas; they fell on deaf ears. His fingers played around it, tugging on my underwear. I shivered, pleading. It only excited him. He pushed aside the white linen that covered my innocence and felt the actual thing.I bit my lip. The burning erotic reaction of my body. I didn't want that but it was happening. It was like he could feel it. He came even closer.I knew immediately that he wanted finger-sex and It wasn't the beginning, he would work his way up to rape and his grinning pals were waiting turns.I decided. I was not going to go down like this. Defiled and tainted.My eyes went on his neck. I bared my teeth and bit him.“Ahhh!!!” He screamed. He shoved his hands out and onto my shoulders, the force pressing me hard on the metal and forcing himself away from me. “Bitch!!!” He yelled and grabbed my throat. He glared right into my eyes.“You have some f**King nerve. I swear to God, when I am through with you, that disgusting asshole of a boyfriend will not reco
“Gina. What are you doing?”I shut my eyes and bit my lip. Breathing slowly. I was scared, my hands gripped the handle but I didn't want him to see it. To know what was happening.I put up a plastic smile and turned to him“I’m trying to go outside. To go home. I feel suffocated in here.”Quinn took one step forward, I grit my teeth, suppressing the urge to step back “It's midnight, Gina. Where would you go?”My lips quivered a little, I tried to keep it unnoticed.“I… I… I didn't know it was that late.” I breathed, my whole body shivering a bit. It felt so much like fictional characters standing in front of a killer who they knew was going to end their lives by morning. I guess it was because somehow, the exact same thing is happening now.“Gina. Are you sure you are alright?”“Yes.” I beamed.Quinn’s eyes were dead black and staring right at me. Half believing my charade obviously. His midnight hair slicked back gave him a 90’s devil mafian look.“Alright. let's go upstairs.” He r
I literally iced.Quinn stopped. Slowly we disentangled, his tongue crawling out of my mouth. He had a lascivious grin on his cheek. Then he averted his attention, to the intruder standing with their jaw dropped, by the door.“Can't you knock?”Hailey frowned.“It's not my fault an exhibitionist like you thinks PDA is cool.”Quinn chuckled, looking at his watch and getting off the bed. “I will punish you later.” He said to Hailey who stuck her tongue out at him. He looked at me, winked and left the room.I let out a sharp exhale, as tension drained from my shoulders . ‘Oh God, I had been holding my breath the entire time’.Hailey rushed me, grabbing my hands, almost startling me.“Start talking missy.” She held up an apprehensive and yet curious gaze.I made a nervous laugh.Unconsciously, I slipped a hand out and fanned my face. I was flushed so much I looked like a tomato.“Want to get some air?”“Yes.. please.”Hailey cracked, laughing. I joined her, allowing the euphoria to en
Hailey made another turn, pacing back the way she came and repeating it again.I sat down by the cradle, my face pale and wet with my oulen tears. Sobs escaping my lips every 30 seconds. It all didn't seem to make any sense. I just couldn't accept it.He can't be gone. He was right there, sleeping with his fits folded and his angelic little figure. He is still so fragile and so little, how could someone take him. I gripped my night gown, right where my chest was, bending over, my body quivering as the pain and the tears came rushing back.“Ah!” I yelled, hitting my chest. Scattering my hair in a frenzy. I wanted to beat my self up. To go crazy. They took him. Which kind of mother am I? I can't even protect my own son?Hailey went on her knees immediately, pulling me into her warm embrace, my face buried in her chest. I just wept. I couldn't do anything but that and I hated myself more because of it.While we just stayed that way, Quinn walked in. He had his plain expression again bu
- QUINN -I swirled the Lamborghini into the roadside garage, parking recklessly on the empty sidewalk. I hopped out, slamming the door and half running the rest of the way.Black Cars rolled in after me. Men in suits and daring aura, jumped down. Guns unhidden on the holsters strapped to their waists.I reared up to the last vehicle. The sources were right, she really did park a SUV here. The car door was unlocked. I jacked it open. It was empty. The necklace I had gifted her was on the car seat next to her phone. She knew I was tracking her so she left them.“F*uck!!” I jammed the car door.‘That smart son of a…’ I knew from the day she returned from the hospital that she had activated a heightened level of stealth and defense. She was married to a Mafia afterall. The moment spies told me she left the house, I already had a good guess of what she wanted to do but i didn't know where so i decided I would lay low and find out but now i wish I didn't.I let out a exasperation, ironic
- GINA -The cold winds whooshed and whirled around me, fluttering the end of my coat and playing with my hair. I stood like I had been frozen, in the middle of the rooftop of this dilapidated building, so frail, It seemed as through it might come falling over if I take a step.I could see people, three men, one rested nicely on a wooden chair while the others stood around him. There was a baby basket in the arms of one of them. I could hear a child crying. I wanted to rush over, to madly rip my baby out of their filthy grip and put a bullet through their skulls but I knew better. Looking Unphased was key in any negotiation.So the silence dragged on between us. They seemed to be waiting for something and I didn't know what it was. It was driving me crazy not knowing that.I hated every bit of me, with each passing second. The memories of life since I met Leo played like a CD tape before my eyes. How vulnerable I had always been. How I never really acted until my death was near. I w
A WEEK LATERMy guess is, something like this had never happened before in this house or this city to be frank because in the passing days after the incident, everyone hovered around like ghosts. I was confined to the room, me and Derek. Quinn never came by and Hailey hopped in just to see the baby. She exchanged no words with me. I adjusted the best I could, to the change. Making it all seem like routine but deep down it was eating me up inside.And the fact that I was incapable of conceiving any plan to make amends, brought back the helpless feeling.On the seventh day after the kidnapping, I decided… I would get things back the way they were even if I had to beg.It was evening, the roses on the left axis of the garden had freshly bloomed and it looked like the eve of spring. The scent enveloped the atmosphere, as if soothing both of us for the conversation I was about to have with Hailey, who sat next to me, tangling her hair in her finger.I took a deep breath and started. “Hail
It has been a week since that night. Quinn had only asked for me once after that day. He was more savage the second time. He didn't even wait for me to come to him. He came into my room, bolt the door and stripped.“Come to me. I need you.” Was all he said. I reminded him we were not going all the way, he didn't seem to want to at all. He just wanted to play. And that's what I did. Pleasuring him, anyway I could until he was groaning and begging.A while ago, I learnt from Hailey that Quinn was having a hard time although he didn't say why. It made sense why he came by. He wanted me to help with his heavy heart.I saw this as a chance to make my move. I had been meaning to make some demands from him however I couldn't find the right time. But now, in this lovely afternoon, while he lay in my arms with only his pants on and I played with his hair; It felt just right to say it now.“Quinn.”“Mhmm.” His eyes were closed.“I have something I need to tell you.”“What?” He sounded slightly
LEO’S POVTHREE MONTHS LATERIt never rains this much in may. Tonight is different. The downpour was twice as heavy. Cold winds froze the windshield and seeped in through the windows I had cracked open. The damp road reeked of grease and motor oil. My phone is on vibrate, dancing away on the passenger seat. You would expect that I would be dying to get home; to get warm. But honestly, I wasn’t. the cold site me just fine. The chilling feeling of my bones contracting as my body iced; it is a peace I havn’t felt in a while. For a moment, I actually thought that my entire life would turn out to be a dream if I closed my eyes and let the cold enveloped me in her arms full of icy nectar. Oh how I missed the quiet. I could get used to..A hand banged against my window, jolting my thoughts. I heaved, squeezing the revolver holstered to my weight. I sucked in a breath and exhaled slowly, trying to let the anger out. That son of a bitch better have a good reason for this. I opened my eyes and
GINA'S POVI stood in front of the mirror built-in to the left door of the giant closet inside the luxury penthouse. The cold morning breeze wafts the curtains and chills my skin. I have only what nature has given me, on. My eyes are closed. It has been a very long year but nothing beat nearly losing my son to that lunatic, Leo. The people I lost and the fear I had to endure still left bone chilling memories that just couldn't fade.Well, Derek is finally far away from all this but for some reason I couldn't get the peace I thought I would. Perhaps it’s because I couldn't call. Hailey must have crossed multiple continents by now; there is no way I could get to her from a cell phone. I know where she would be eventually and after was that make me so restless. My son isn't going to see me again, not for another four or even Ten years. I wondered how I could cope. I think that is the reason I haven’t been able to feel at ease.I took a deep breath and open my eyes. The figure that stood
AL DURO'S POVI watched him stare listlessly, from the Golden Brown door to the wallpaper and back to his glass of wine but it was just to refill it and repeat the action again. Honestly, in all the time I have been with Leonardo Fernandez I had never seen him so devastated. I have to admit I found myself acknowledging that I hit the guy pretty hard. Not that I didn't like it though. Leonardo sighed heavily. It drew my attention.“You know, brandy can't help you.”He ignored me well more like he didn't hear me. His eyes are sullen, his head falling and gloom marred his features. In a way he is like an awoken corpse.“Leonardo I'm being honest.”He rose, not sparing me any glance while he walked to the bar counter in his living room to pick the fifth bottle of brandy. I sprung to my feet from the armchair I had occupied, launched towards him and grabbed the bottle.“Quit it man, you are stronger than this!”He gave me a blank stare and then grinned mockingly.“I thought so too, well,
GINA’S POVI wheeled into the parking lot of the hanger. An ambulance right behind me, roughly screeching to a halt. I hopped down, lifting a revolver gun out of the car. The ambulance door swung open and Quinn alighted. A bazooka placed on his shoulder. His radio was reporting. “Nothing living on site Boss.”He looked at his men in the ambulance. “It’s clear, move him now.” Quinn ordered. I took the front, they followed behind me. The jet just a few feet away. Three guards lay in wait with a woman. She has a thin purple scarf over her neck, covering part of her face.The doctors pushed the stretcher onward. Derek had been strapped down on so he wouldn't fall. Quinn hovering around us, watching the parameter. The doctors pushed Derek up into the craft while I stopped in front of the lady.Her face is hidden but I could tell she is smiling.“Thank you… Hailey. This means the world to me.”“You don't need to thank me. It’s Derek we were talking about here. I love him like he is my ow
GINA'S POV That long, dragging piercing sound of a faulty radio, that's the only thing I could hear when my head hit the ground. My eyes flickered and the pain in my head just didn't stop gnawing at me.I held what seemed like the bashed side and tried to pull myself up. The whole world is in chaos. Black boots stumbling back and forth beside me. Men yelling... falling. There is blood everywhere.I couldn't think but my subconscious mind is able to calculate and know that I have to flee so I did. Stomping around like I was blind. The debris of blown up rocks with jagged edges tore the skin on my feet. I groaned but I couldn't put myself together enough to tell which way is right.Someone is yelling, his voice tried to break through the screeching sound in my ear but it couldn’t. I couldn't tell what he was saying. Until… he grabbed me “Take cover.” He dragged me down with him, enveloping me in his arms. An explosion erupted the very next second. I shrunk into his enclosure, shudder
I heard the baritone voice behind the door. I spun around immediately. A relieved smile settling on my face. I had been waiting for him. I let go of the hem of my shirt rumble by my grip. The door opened slowly and Quinn walked in. His clothes are ripped a little and he is covered in dust. Tears weld up in my eyes. With our lips sealed I asked him, if he was hurt. He heaved and shock his head. He wasn't . I ran to him and hugged him. We shared a passionate kiss for a moment before we disengaged. He pulled me to him and we both faced Reginald.“You said you could find him right?” Quinn asked.“Yes.” He said, navigating away from his bed.“Leonardo has two safe houses. Four months back, one of the was burned out so they decided to make the second one fire proof. Then when Gina came, he began to fantasize having a family so he renovated the place to look like a home. If he is taking him to a safe place then that's the location.”“Directions, We don't have time.” Reggie shock his
GINA'S POV I greeted the nurses and found my way down the hall. Reggie's ward has been changed. He was in a more luxurious one. I wore Shades over my eye and my hair down. The bandages ha been removed, some places on my face has been badly scarred. The doctor said I couldn't get surgery yet. I have gotten quite a few in past already. So, I have to wear some plasters and so my hair hid them.I got to the room on that floor, knocked and waited. I heard light giggling and ruffling of sheets then the door opened. A young nurse greeted me and scurried off. A button undone in her apparel. I walked in slowly, looking around the room. At the femminie choice of flowers and the heavy scent of ladies’ choice cologne. I shock my head, pulling myself a seat. Reggie is watching me, my face to be precise. It has been a while since I visited because of the accident.“What are you looking at? We haven't spoken in weeks and the wallpaper is what first catches your attention?”.“Not really.
Alduro hopped down the tinted SUV he had parted a while back. He put his shades up and majestically walked up to my car. He knocked on the windows.“It's a hundred plus degrees out here now. How can you not be stewing in that car?” I popped the door open. “Get in.”Alduro feigned a chilling sign mocking me as usual before climbing into passenger seat. I swerved, hitting the road the next moment.“Did you station the surveillance like I asked you? Yeah. There was a glitch though with one of my own but it's been fixed.” He answered, his tone had that unchanging hoarseness.“Good.”“Where to now?” “I'm going to see my son.”“Yeah he will definitely jump for joy once a total stranger grabs him in front of his school.” He chuckled. I glanced at him from the corner of my eyes. He didn't even try to hide the sarcastic look on his face.“Sometimes I wonder where you find the creativity of yours to piss me off like this.”“It's god’s gift.” He best his chest, and laughed.“The boy
“What?”I ignored her. Allowing the news to sink in. Somehow I found myself eager to know what stunt she is planning to pull next.“Impossible. Leo you are losing it. Oh god, I don't understand? What's so special about that bitch that you are so willing to go mad for her.”I chuckled. A little disappointed. I expected a better show from her “Save me the petty talk Samantha. Honestly, it's really starting to get annoying.” I growled.From here, I could hear her heart beat faster and faster. Her composure selling her out.“Leo, don't do this. We just got back together. She is dead. She burned in that car. Please just let it go. You are hurting our love.” Her voice quivered and she sniffled.I glanced back at her, tears streaming down from her eyes. Any stranger who just walked in would think I am the monster and she is a love-deprived damsel in distress. The thought of it twisted my gut and fueld my anger.I made a full turn, and began to stride slowly towards her. Sam stepped back, h
