Bound by Love: Falling for Mr. Billionaire Chapter 14
Sasha’s POV“He won, Yes, Valentino had won,” I said inwardly as a wide laugh burst out of my mouth. There he was heading toward me. Valentino stood up, came at me, and kissed me. He had won the game. For a moment I was scared. Scared for him, scared for us, and scared that things might go sideways. This was the first time I had seen him tense. In all my life, I had never witnessed the tension, dread, and fear that filled the room. Each of the players was tense during the game.I watched a lady of a similar age as myself get up and yell aloud. She was the one player who seemed to make Valentino shift a bit from his seat. My lover had triumphed and he gave a winning roar.For a moment it felt surreal. Here was Mr. Hard Guy, all happy and cheerful. Maybe it was because it was his last laugh and his last game here. He had told me on our way up the floor that he wasn’t going to be in this section ever again.“Come on, my darling, let’s go party and have some fun and celebrate this victo

Sasha’s POV“Come on, I’m not in danger, I’ll be fine,” I said as I made my move.I stepped into the restroom and went to ease myself. There I sat thinking of what would have been my fate if Valentino had lost out there tonight.As much as I liked to keep it as a contract and nothing else, I was feeling drawn to him. It seemed as though I cared about him. Maybe I loved him. I knew he had the look of bravery but for once, I could see fear in his eyes. Etched deeply as though he was afraid of failing. I could tell within me that he had something hiding deep within him. Like some childhood hurt. A feeling of inadequacy or something of sorts.I washed my face and looked in the mirror, thanking my stars that I wasn’t collateral damage in case things had gone south. Those men and women didn't seem to have a soul in them. They were a bit kill or be killed—willing to put even their family on the line.Although my dad wasn't always available due to the lifestyle he'd chosen, he taught me one

Sasha’s POVI walked out of the restroom with the guard, as I was a bit furious and grateful at the same time.Furious that I had to be walked out of a conversation—well, a conversation I did not want to have.Valentino stood there with all shades of anger written all over his face. He seemed suspicious of something. Something I knew nothing about, and that wasn’t my worry or a burden to bear. Besides, I told him I needed to use the restroom.“Living in the restroom now? Look how long you kept me waiting! I wanted to make a quick introduction of you to some of my acquaintances and you stood me up and made it look like I was playing a prank on them. I see you like to keep me waiting and get on my nerves. Is that the new thing you’re taking a chide in?” He spoke, authority beaming from his tone.I rolled my eyes, restricting the wide laughter that was about to burst out of my mouth. Placing my hands on my mouth, I held it back, with a grin appearing on my face. I gave him a smirk and sa

Valentino’s POV“There can’t be any light without darkness, and there can’t be success without struggle.” His voice recoiled in my head as I puffed the smoke into Sasha’s face.I had lived my whole life, hidden in plain sight. Like a lyricist, I had penned down my every move. Markos, my late mentor, had taught me the way of the streets, even the deeds of Wall Street elitist movers and shakers.I was well-versed in business dealings and knew how to seize opportunities when I saw them lurking around me. For a moment, I looked at Sasha and asked if I spotted an opportunity in her or if it was my emotions trying to drag me to a place I never wanted to be.As difficult as it was for me to understand, love was also hard for me to comprehend. “I don’t let people into my world. I’ve got to save something for myself. I can’t just let everybody know everything about me,” I muttered, looking her in the face.“Am I everyone, Val?” Sasha said as she turned, facing me with her mouth wide open.“Don

Sasha’s POVI called out to Valentino as I saw the rider in black-colored clothing and a helmet riding furiously in our direction. Something didn’t seem right about him. Valentino didn’t seem scared, it seemed he was expecting it. I couldn’t fathom what relationship he loved with trouble. Each moment with him was dreadful and dangerous, and it had my heart racing. “When would I have my lasting peace with him?” I thought for a moment.The rider tried to crash into our vehicle, but the driver, who seemingly had great visibility, waved off, sending the rider into a fatal state. Valentino seemed like a Superman of some sort, and what he did made me livid.He went into the driver’s seat and told him to hold steady on the steering. He told him to move as fast as possible and clear every single hindrance aimed at stopping him from dragging him back.Valentino took on a walkie-talkie and called his men to position, signaling imminent danger. “Route changed; head for the safe-house,” Valenti

Valentino’s POVI knew who had done this. That stupid girl, Julie, had sent her marksmen against me. Maybe she was ill-informed; she could have done her background check before taking a hit on me.Commendable were the size and strength of her team, but they were no match for me. I would teach them a lesson and make her pay. She had made my woman cry, and for this, I will make her cry bloody tears; there is no way around this.I went back into the car to see how lucky Sasha was; she had sustained no injuries or hits, and that was pleasing to me. She had more in her than to stay down and be frightened. I was going to toughen her up; she must become a real queen—a dangerous one at that.“My love, take this and use it when necessary,” I said as I gave her a pistol, showing her how to get it ready and reload. Sometimes you cannot defend everyone and fight at the same time. That was how my father had died, saving my mum from the invasion that divided my home.His twin brother had ordered th

Sasha's POVThis was the longest night of my life. My first-hand experience at Casino Royale was indeed memorable and one I would never forget, not in a hurry.The gunshots had halted and I was scared still. “Was this what constitutes the daily life of Valentino,” I wondered.He had great guts to live such a life. No wonder it is said that behind the gleam and glamor lay an unfavorable tale. I had witnessed it for myself first hand and I knew to be king was a heavy burden.His crown was heavy and I had doubts about being his queen. I looked at myself, reflection and reality dawning on me. How could I handle his shoes, if he let me fill it?“Come outside Sasha and see the faces of all of them that wished death on us, come spit on their dirty faces,” Valentino screamed as he raised his hand with two pistols, one on each hand, and turned around as he screamed and laughed.I peeped outside as I scanned the environment to ensure there was no one left to hurt me. I had seen it in the movie

Sasha’s POV I got into the helicopter with Valentino following behind. I sat down there as I thought about the kind of life that awaited me. As I looked down from the view up there, I could see the whole city in view. I looked at the scene we had just left and saw a mass of bodies and the cops coming into the scene. Valentino seemed well-connected even in places I didn't expect. While we flew ahead, I noticed he had a call on his phone, I took it up to hand over to him when I noticed the caller. It was the police chief. I listened to the content of their call and overheard Valentino telling the police chief to handle the situation as it was an assassination attempt on him. “Sweetheart, I hope you're not hurt,” I asked, deeply concerned. “Dear, I'm fine, just a little thing I am thinking about,” he responded. Valentino’s face was etched with deep concern. Was he scared about me? I could remember Rose’s warnings to me and how she told me Valentino had lost three women

Valentino’s POV I promised if I found Sasha, I was going to make her my wife. This time for real and no longer would she be a placeholder. “Arrgh,” I screamed as Jared let me in on Sasha being kidnapped by that fool, Dave Martin. I had beaten him to a bulb and had him leave her alone. After all these years, all these moments, he had been lurking, laying siege to Sasha, and I..I foolishly let her leave into harm’s way. Sasha was a beautiful bird and a lot of predators were circling her, trying to take advantage of her. “Get me Dave on the line, Jared,” my voice hurried as I threw my fists in the air. “Dave Partner boss?” Jared questioned. I didn’t know if to smack his face or to laugh this over with but there were no jokes tonight. Only thing on my mind was getting Sasha back, here with me, whole and as my real wife. “Fuck it Jared, I’m talking about Dave Martin, get him on the line now. Didn’t you just tell me he’s the one who’s got Sasha and you're talking some gibberish.”

Sasha’s POV “Let me go…please..let..me..g…” I had a wood plank on my head and I lost consciousness. It was at this moment I wished I had not run away from Valentino. Problems seemed to follow me each time I was away from him. He was a refuge and a strong fortress for me and this time, more than ever, I hoped he’d found me. I felt a weight over my body as I slowly gained consciousness. Studying the environment, I opened my right eye slowly, as it hurt so much, and my head hurt so much to open even my very own eyes. I was tied up in a chair and I couldn’t tell where exactly I was but it didn’t seem like a warehouse. I could tell this was someone’s house but couldn’t tell who exactly it was. “I am blindfolded so how do I even know where this is,” I uttered under my breath. Maybe I should scream and some passer-by could come to my rescue or call the police and I could get out of here. I didn’t want any of those men who must have brought me here to find me here. They were damn mea

Sasha’s POV “What was that?” I yelled, my voice shaking with frustration. I couldn’t believe Emilia had let me down like this. She was the only one I had trusted with my secret, the only person who knew exactly where I was. I had begged her not to tell anyone until I was far away, safe in Spain. And now, it felt like everything was crashing down around me. I felt this deep pain in my chest like someone was pressing down on me with the weight of a thousand boulders. Everything I loved had been ripped away from me. My family was gone, my company had been stolen from me, and even Valentino—my Valentino—was no longer by my side. There was nothing left for me here. Nothing. But when I heard Valentino’s voice over the phone, it did something to me. It was like a tiny spark in a room full of darkness. My heart, which had felt so cold and broken, suddenly stirred with the smallest flicker of life. “I can’t do this anymore,” I whispered, talking to no one but myself. “I can’t stay here.

Valentino's POV I grab Emilia’s phone and frantically try to call Sasha, but I can’t get through. Frustrated, I look at Emilia coldly and ask, "Do you know where she is? What do you know about her?" "I... I don’t know," Emilia says, frowning. "Sasha is being super careful this time. She didn’t tell me where she’s staying. She said you might come looking for her through me, so she didn’t want to risk it because she thinks I can't keep a secret." Emilia pouts, looking all upset. "But it's late. Maybe she's already asleep, so not picking up isn’t that weird." Jared turns to me. "What about tomorrow?" I frown, thinking it over for a second. "Track her number. Find out where Sasha is," I say, determined. "Alright, I’ll get someone to track her phone and find her," Jared replies, nodding. Emilia just watches us, looking a little confused. She pouts again, like she’s thinking something over, but doesn’t say anything after a while. Finally, she shrugs. "You guys do your thing. I’m

Sasha's POV Fred and I are really funny after we drink too much. We keep guessing things and playing games, and we hold each other a lot.Gabriel looks annoyed as he tries to separate us, not wanting us to keep holding on to each other."Enough already! Stop it!" Gabriel frowns and says, "You’re both drunk.""We're not drunk!""Yeah, you’re the one who's drunk!" We both stare at him for a moment and then start laughing.Gabriel looks frustrated as he watches us, knowing he can’t change our minds.Luckily, Fred and I pass out after drinking. That gives Gabriel some time to clean up after us.Over the next two days, I talked with Gabriel and Fred about starting a film company in the United States.In the end, Gabriel agrees that Fred and I can work together to plan this film company.…Valentino's POV I keep searching for Sasha, but with Gabriel and Sandra causing problems for me, I haven’t heard from her at all.Jared comes to my house and tells me what he’s found during his search.

Valentino's POV Sasha disappeared, and for two days, I, Valentino, searched for her, but I couldn’t find her anywhere.Jared was looking everywhere too. He tried all kinds of things, but it felt like someone was always getting in the way. Many surveillance cameras had been hacked, and some videos were missing, so he couldn’t find Sasha directly.I was left with no choice but to use the simplest method: sending a lot of people to ask about Sasha’s whereabouts.All over the city, people were taking photos of Sasha, trying to find out where she was.But no one knew where she had gone.It was like she had vanished completely.I was losing my mind. I couldn’t believe Sasha had disappeared from my life, and I just couldn’t accept it.“It’s time for you to eat, sir,” one of the maids said, sounding worried about me. I had lost a lot of weight in just two days. “Even if you don’t eat, your wife might not show up. You should have a good meal. I don’t think she would want to see you like this.

Sasha's POV I looked at Gabriel like he was an idiot. "If I went to be a cook with this kind of skill, I'd probably get myself killed..."Seriously, who doesn’t know how to make hot pot? It’s just tossing everything into a pot to cook. When I was studying abroad and craved hot pot, I used to make it in my dorm all the time."Really? It all looks so delicious. You seem pretty talented. How could you get yourself killed? If anyone dares to mess with you, I'll take care of them first," Gabriel said, grabbing his chopsticks to sneak a taste.Once I finished setting the table, I told him, "Sit down and eat.""Alright," he replied.But just as Gabriel was about to sit, the doorbell rang."Who is it?" I asked, looking at him."I'll go check. Maybe it's some big star!" Gabriel joked as he ran to the door, chatting briefly with whoever was outside.From the sound of it, it seemed like more than one person had shown up. A little curious, I peeked out and saw a familiar face.Why is he here?I
Bound by Love: Falling for Mr. Billionaire Chapter 176
Sasha's POV The maid stopped me as I was leaving and asked, "Where are you going, ma'am?"It seemed like she was confused about why I was leaving. Everyone always thought my husband and I were close, so this sudden departure must've seemed strange. Maybe they thought Sandra had some evil plan to push me out.The maids didn’t trust Sandra. They knew she wasn’t a good person, and it seemed like they wanted me to stay.I smiled at the maid and said, "I'm leaving. I'll see you later."I tried to walk out with my head held high, pretending everything was okay. But inside, I was breaking. I was sad, hurt, and didn’t want to leave at all.As I walked out, I could feel Sandra’s eyes on me. I knew she was smiling, satisfied with herself. With me gone, she probably thought she could hide better and make Valentino forget about me.The maids were glaring at Sandra, clearly not happy with her. But she didn’t care. She knew she would be the lady of the house soon and could treat them however she l
Bound by Love: Falling for Mr. Billionaire Chapter 175
Valentino's POV I came back home, but I couldn’t sleep all night.Early the next morning, my phone rang. It was my grandfather telling me to come back to the old house.“I got it. I’ll be there soon,” I replied before hanging up.After changing into a fresh set of clothes, I went to Sasha’s room. She drank too much last night and stayed up late, so she was still fast asleep. Her sleeping posture was a bit messy, almost childlike, but she looked so cute.I tucked her in before heading downstairs.“My wife is still sleeping. When she wakes up, make sure to prepare some breakfast and soup to help with the hangover. If she’s not feeling well, call a doctor to check on her. I’m heading out.”“Yes, sir.”I drove off, leaving the maids to continue their work. I overheard them talking about yesterday and how drunk my wife had gotten.But one thing was clear—they knew I cared about her. They’d make sure she was well taken care of.I pulled up in front of the old house in my car. As I stepped
