CATALINA

The room was dark, little rays of light streamed in through the windows. I guessed this even though my eyes were covered with a blindfold. It smelled like mold and dust and gasoline. This should be in an abandoned warehouse.

I tried to move and the ropes that were used to tie me up bit into my wrists, I had to stay still to avoid the pain shooting up my arms.

My heart hammered so loudly in my chest. How long has it been now? An hour? Two hours?

I didn't know, I couldn't tell.

Who was responsible for my kidnap?

Pablo?

Olivia?

I felt another pain but it wasn't because of the ropes that bound my hands together, it was due to the feeling of betrayal that tugged at my heart. Miguel had a wife all this time. Why wasn't she with him and why did he do all those things with me if he had a wife?

I heard a door creak somewhere behind me and turned instinctively, though I couldn't see a thing. Then I heard footsteps getting closer to me.

"You awake, princess?" a rough voice sneered.

  • Be My Slave: A Mafia Romance    Chapter 1

    Catalina I covered my ears as the banging on the door became louder, I prayed they wouldn't break down my door and barge in. This has been my life since my father died, debt collectors always chasing after me. If I'm unlucky, they see me outside and chase me all around town but if I'm lucky, like today, they come when I'm inside and bang on my door till they get tired and leave. They left after a while and I crawled out from under my bed where I hid. I looked around the house my father left for me, I had sold everything valuable and I still hadn't paid even a quarter of the debt we owed. All my part time jobs barely raised enough money to even feed myself. I fell on my knees and let the tears flow from my eyes, this wasn't the life I wanted to live. If I had the choice, I wouldn't choose this life for myself. My phone rang and I recognized the caller.“Hello, Catalina speaking.”“Hello Miss Catalina, I'm calling in respect for the job you applied for at our club. Congr

    Miguel She opened the car door, jumped out of the car and slammed it shut. My lips curled upward, I had to have her. She did all sorts of things to my body just by dancing. I haven't felt so much excitement in my body for years. I had to have her.“Get me all the information you can find on Catalina Gomez immediately!” I ordered my driver, who was also my right hand man.“Yes sir!” I got home and tried to sleep. It had been a long day. One of the gambling houses had an issue that I had to go and sort out personally. This is why I hated hiring rookies to manage my gambling houses, someone was definitely going to lose their job first thing tomorrow morning.I was so tired from today's work and I decided to go to one of my clubs and unwind a little. In fact, I was so happy I went there today, I rarely go to my own clubs, I liked to go elsewhere and observe the competition. I wouldn't have ever met Catalina if I didn't decide to go to my club today, such rare beauty! The way sh

    Catalina I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I could only think this as I signed the papers. He knew my weakness and used it against me. Clearly he knows everything about me and I don't even know his name.“At least be kind enough to tell me your name. Or should I just call you Master?”A deep chuckle rumbled from his throat. So the beast could actually laugh.“Miguel Alejandro.”The name sounded familiar but I couldn't place my finger on it so I just brushed the thought aside.“Why, Miguel?”“Why what?”“Why me? Why do you even want a slave?”“You interest me that's why. You do things to me just by giving me that death stare.” He let out a sigh. “I want a slave because you're bound by a contract, you will do anything I say. Relationships are meaningless to me, you have more freedom in a relationship and I don't want that. As a slave, you have no choice.”“Psychopath!”“This psychopath is actually saving you.”He was right, the money he was giving me would really go a long way in

    Catalina I froze. I immediately regretted coming here. I should have just stayed in my room. Clearly I wasn't ready for slave duties. “You should see the look on your face.” Miguel laughed at me. “Huh?”“You look horrified.”Who wouldn't be? I was just told to strip. “I'm tired Catalina. Go to your room and stop whining about how vile and evil I am.”I turned immediately and hurried out of the room. I didn't want to be here if he changed his mind. Once I was in my room, I locked my door and laid on my bed. Miguel might have been joking tonight, but the truth was that I was now his and he had the right to do all sorts of things to my body. I woke up early to start preparations for breakfast. I was going to go all in and make a full English breakfast for Miguel. I needed to make a good first impression, maybe he might take it easy on me.10am and Miguel hadn't come down for breakfast. I was very hungry and got tired of waiting. I went to Gabriella and asked her if he usuall

  • Be My Slave: A Mafia Romance    Chapter 5

    Catalina I've spent days thinking of an escape plan but so far I've come up with nothing. The house was guarded, wherever I went there was at least one man with a gun. I was only allowed to go out if there was a group of bodyguards with me. It was frustrating but I continued with my activities normally to avoid raising suspicions. I cooked breakfast knowing fully well he wouldn't eat, I danced for him whenever he wanted, I went out with my security without complaining. Trust….I was building trust so that when the time came for me to escape it would be so easy. My problem was Gabriella. She treated me like an outcast. She only talked to me when it was very necessary or when I asked her a question. I was lonely in that mansion and I thought we could become friends. Friends my foot. Gabriella would be the first to report me to Miguel if she has even the slightest idea of my escape plan.Miguel. He seemed more occupied these days. Maybe a serious issue in the mafia world. I didn

    MIGUEL I could see the fear in her eyes. Yes. She should be scared of me. Maybe she hadn't the slightest idea what I am capable of. How dangerous I can be. She looked down at the gun in my hand and swallowed hard. My boys went over to her and dragged her forward until she stood in front of me.“You really thought you could succeed with your childish escape plan? Do you know the punishment for defying me?” I asked her.“You tell me.” She tried to look defiant. But I could see through her. The fear she felt beneath the layers of thick skin.“Death.” I announced.“Kill me then. Death is better than this life you want to subject me to.” I admired her bravery. But I couldn't let it show. I hated disrespect. If I don't curb her now, she might turn out to be more trouble later. If I look weak in front of my people, it wouldn't be long before someone would think they can overthrow me. I pointed the gun to her head.“Are you sure Catalina? Do you really want to die?” “Will you really ki

    CATALINA The kiss was rough, demanding, urgent.His hand was cupped firmly on the back of my neck, the pressure increased. I didn't know why, but I parted my lips, inviting him. A tiny moan escaped my throat as his tongue met mine. His mouth moved over mine, crushing down harder each passing second. His teeth nipped painfully at my lip, a second moan escaped me.He stopped suddenly and looked down at me. His eyes were darker now. They were filled with pleasure. Dangerous pleasure.“You don't know the things I want to do to you Catalina.” I couldn't form a response. I only looked at him. His face was that of a man overcome by lust and desires.“I own you don't I? Take off your clothes.”Like someone under a spell, I slowly began to undress. My eyes were still fixed on his. Somehow I wanted to know, what it meant to be owned by this man, what depths of pleasure he would take me to if I let him.I stood there, unclad. I hated to admit it, but the way he looked at my naked body made

    MIGUELThe whiskey burned as it slid down my throat, but it wasn’t enough to chase away the frustration I was feeling.I shouldn’t have left her. I didn't want to leave her.I only wanted to push her, to know if she'd break, to prove to her and myself that I had complete control, that I own her. And yet, it was difficult for me to walk away from her.Damn it!Gabriella entered my room and gave me a file. “Are you okay?” She asked after studying my face.“Yes. Is this the list?”“Yes, that's the list of everyone attending the party, so no surprises.” She took a sip from my martini, and looked at me. I knew that look. “What is it Gabriella?”“She contacted me. Asked if she can join you as a plus one.”My eyes darkened. “I told you to cut off all contact with her.”“She just called. I couldn't ignore her.”I scoffed. “She doesn't know how to let go does she?”“Are you going with her?”“Never.”“You need a plus one, should I arrange someone for you?” Gabriella asked.“No need.

    CATALINA Today's my first day. As a boss. And guess what? I didn't even know the kind of company that was given to me. And that's why I was in Miguel's room instead of getting ready for work.“A construction company?” I asked in bewilderment.“Yes, it's the best fit for you amongst the rest.” He sighed. “You haven't told me why you're in such a hurry to start?”“Forget that. What are the other options I have?”“There's an art gallery, a fishing company, casinos, private security firms and I have people running all these places for me.”I disliked the idea of running those kinds of places. “Well, if I'm going to run the construction company it has to go clean.”“Learn how to run it first, we'll talk about the rest later.”I knew it'd be hard to convince him, but I would eventually. “Now, let me go and get ready.”“Remember,” he stopped me. “Two bodyguards with you at all times, two at the entrance.”“Noted.” No arguments whatsoever, I didn't care if they were ten… I was doing somethi

  • Be My Slave: A Mafia Romance    Chapter 42

    MIGUEL Catalina didn't understand me. I keep telling her no for her own good. What was I thinking when I added giving her a company as a clause in the contract? The companies I have were just coverups for more illicit and illegal activities. I don't want her to get involved in something like that. What if it scares her away? And Pablo, he was hunting for her like a crazy dog.She's been locked up in her room for hours now and I didn't know if going to talk to her was the best thing to do. I looked at the files that had been on my desk since morning. The best thing would be to destroy them right? I've had it for a while now and always thought of what to do with them. Should I show her? She deserves to know right? I kept asking myself over the months I've known her, and now that we've gotten closer, I'm even more scared to tell her the truth I've been keeping from her. Maybe later, but for now these files have to be destroyed. I'd burn them later, for now I just threw them in the

  • Be My Slave: A Mafia Romance    Chapter 41

    CATALINA Things didn't change. Miguel didn't treat me differently as we got home, though it was still too early for me to tell. I just had this nagging feeling that it was too good to be true.From the way he held me as I slept, to the way he laughed freely while we snuck into the kitchen and foraged for food. I'd never seen him so carefree and relaxed.Once we got into the kitchen, Miguel went straight for the fridge while I tiptoed around, pretending to be a spy. It was kind of funny. The owner of the house was scared of being caught in his kitchen eating the food he provided.He pulled out leftover sandwiches and some kind of pasta dish that smelled way too good to resist.He placed everything on the counter and turned to me. “Anything else?”I grinned. “Dessert. There has to be dessert.”Miguel nodded and opened the fridge, bringing out a slice of chocolate cake. My eyes lit up. “Good one!”We sat at the dining table and quietly ate all the food. "Full?" he had asked when I

    MIGUEL The minute Catalina gave me the plate number, I handed it over to Andrés."Run it. I want to know everything, the owner, address, who they work for.""On it boss," Andrés said, already pulling out his phone as he walked away.I turned back to Catalina. She looked exhausted, maybe still a little shaken by everything she'd learned today. I hated that she had to go through all this because of me. I should have just let her live her life. "You should rest," I said, reaching for her hand. "I'll handle this."She hesitated. "Whatever you do, be careful."A small smile tugged at my lips. She was actually worried about me. "I’m not alone, Catalina. I have an army…literally." I squeezed her hand gently. "You, on the other hand, need sleep. You need to rest."She hesitated for a bit, then nodded in agreement."Good girl," I said, and leaned in to press a kiss on her forehead.Gabriella cleared her throat loudly. "I see some things have changed," she muttered under her breath, walking

    CATALINA The fear I felt didn't leave me. As we got ready to leave Miami, I still feared that Miguel would change once we went back home. He would worry about people seeing him as weak and using me to get to him.“Hey, are you okay?”“Mhmm,” I lied. I wasn't okay, I was worried to my bones.“I love this dress,” Miguel said, checking out my outfit. It was a black mini gown that clung to my body and revealed my curves. “Remind me to get Gabriella a gift, she's really outdone herself this time.”“I was actually worried when you said Gabriella packed my bags. I thought she'd give me something hideous to wear.”Miguel smiled. “You have to give her some credit, she means well.”I shook my head. “I doubt that. She's really against us. She just wants me gone so badly.”“She's only looking out for me,” Miguel said, he was putting together his things now.“You keep saying that. Is she like your past lover or something? She acts like one.”Miguel laughed. “Does it look like that?” He was done

    CATALINA Okay. I know I said I'd build my walls even higher….but how could I do that when he's doing all these sweet things for me? The way he looks at me and touches me. Maybe I should bring my walls down a bit? Watch how things go….I had this fear that things would go back to the way they were once we went back to Mexico. If they did, I'll have to accept my fate and keep the memories of this place buried in my heart.“How much is that?” I asked, rising up from his body. We'd been kissing for so long that I lost track of time.He licked his lips. “I don't know…. five million maybe?”I laughed. “That's fair.”“You want to wipe off another five?”“Not yet,” I made my way into the small cottage. “I want to see inside.”Miguel groaned in disapproval. “Okay fine.”We made our way inside the cottage, I gasped as I entered…it looked so beautiful.“Do you like it?” Miguel asked, “we'll stay here for the night and head out tomorrow morning before going back to Mexico. I know I promised to

    MIGUEL She disappeared into the bathroom, I heard the sound of water running moments later.I sank onto the edge of the massive bed, running a hand down my face.What the hell was I doing?It wasn't supposed to be like this.I was supposed to keep her close, have my fun and let her go after a year.But somewhere between pretending she didn’t affect me and pretending I didn’t want her, I'd stopped pretending.And now... I was so far gone I couldn't see straight.I leaned back, staring at the ceiling, letting my thoughts go in different directions.She deserved more than a man like me.I wasn't stable.I held secrets that could make her hate me forever.But selfishly, I wanted her anyway.The bathroom door creaked open, and I lifted my head.Catalina stepped out, wrapped in a towel, her skin still wet and her hair damp from the shower. She looked soft, fresh…. beautiful.She paused when she caught me staring, her cheeks turning pink. “I’ll just get dressed,” she mumbled.I stood up sl

    CATALINA When the wedding finally ended and the guests started leaving in ones and twos, Miguel pulled me aside, away from the crowd that were scrambling to talk to him, onto a quiet balcony that overlooked the water. The night air was warm and heavy with the scent of salt and roses.We stood there for a long moment, neither of us speaking.I marveled at the beauty of this place and wondered….if I ever got married, what would my wedding be like?Miguel turned to face me, his hands sliding into his pockets.“Thanks for coming with me,” he said suddenly.I blinked. “Ten million is a good bargain.”He laughed, then he was suddenly serious. His voice, low and rough. “Your time and presence is worth more than that.”“Maybe you could make it forty million then.”He laughed again. “No way! I have other ideas to collect my debt.”I stared at him, the wind teasing strands of hair into my face. “What ideas? Tell me.”His fingers gently brushed against my skin as he carefully swept a strand o
