THIRD POV

"Mom,"

"Malia?"

"Mom help me please,"

Cora's heart clenched as she looked around in the dark for her baby girl.

"Malia, where are you?"

"Mom please!"

"Malia," Cora sobbed. She turned around, still searching for her daughter. She can hear her child's voice from a distance and also close by.

But she can't see a thing in the dark.

She made steps deeper into the dark. She doesn't care how dark it is. All she wants is her daughter.

She wants to save her daughter.

That's all she wants.

"Mom,"

"Malia.....I am here. Mom is here." Cora said, sniffling as tears rolled down her eyes.

"Mom help me please......." Malia cried.

Cora's heart clenched.

"They are hurting me." Malia cried.

Cora let out a sob. "Where are you? I don't see you anywhere, baby." She cried.

"I....I don't know." Malia stuttered.

Cora sniffled.

"Cora, come back." East said.

    MALIA "We are going to escape." Flora said, looking right at me. Escape? "And we are going to do that tonight." She said. Tonight? She nodded. I tightened my grip on the ripped clothes around my body. I look down, crying painfully as I took in the pain coming from underneath. She wrapped me in a hug, it made me cry out more. "Tonight, Malia. Tonight we leave this hell hole. This will be over soon." She said, caressing my hair. I do want to escape. Whatever it is she is planning, I am in. I can't stay one more day here. That beast will come for me again. He will touch me with his wicked and filthy hands. He is so cruel. He is a monster. I don't want to see him again. I don't want him touching me again. I don't!

    ELI HOURS AGO******My eyes rested on my two hands that are on the bathroom wall as the cold refreshing shower hit my body. I closed my eyes, moving my head back so the water could touch my face. It is extremely refreshing. I love water. Well, everyone do. No one is an enemy to it. That's the one thing the entire world can't do without. Not even plants can do without it. I move my hands towards my hair, running my fingers through it as the water continue pouring on me. Opening my eyes, I reached for my liquid soap and took some portion on my palms. I applied it on my chest, down to my abs and then to my smart guy.Smirking to my thoughts, I took more soap for the rest of my body. I used some on my face, washing it thoroughly. I reached for the shampoo for my short brunette hair. I applied it and began washing. That's how I bathe. I take my time, washing every single part from start to finish. I believe in good and long bath. Three times a day. It makes you supe

    MALIA NOW*****"Bring the bitch here, Damn it!" His angry and harsh voice made my heart drop. I flinched."Move!" The man pointing his gun at me snapped. I turned towards the direction where the angry man was. With my hands still up, I focused my gaze down as I walked towards him.Getting closer, I sensed the third one behind me, still pointing his gun at me. My heart banged relentlessly, and my breathing was going far away from normal as I got closer to the angry man who seemed to be the boss among them. Next, another gun is pointed at my face, making me gasp a little as I shudder in absolute terror. My gaze is still down. I am practically shuddering relentlessly.He is pointing his gun at me.

    A maid? "I trust you. Well, she is all yours." Julio said, walking away with the other man. "Thank you, sir." Miss Parker said. Tears approached my eyes as I stared at Julio, walking away. A maid? Is that...."The name?" Miss Parker caught my attention. She looks mean. "Ma..Malia," I couldn't help but stutter. "Malia. You heard him, I am Miss Parker. Head of the Rossi's household workers and welfare." She explained in a jiffy. I shifted a little. "I presume this is your first time getting employed?" "Ye...yes," "Do you stutter all the time?"

    "What the hell are you doing here?" He asked, gripping my neck tightly. My heart begged to explode as I struggled in his tight hold on my neck. God I can't breathe. "I asked you a question, little bitch," I closed my eyes, trying to form a word. "What the heck are you doing here? And dressed like that?!" He yelled. I flinched, feeling my head banging. I opened my mouth to speak. He held me tighter. My eyes are slowly rolling to the back. God..... please..save me....Pl....He let go off my neck instantly but aggressively. I gasped loudly for air, coughing hard as I held my neck where he gripped. "Now, speak," he ordered. "I....he..... Julio made me...." He scoffed.

My heart pounded. "Just what we needed." Julio said, getting on his feet. So did Ivan. They both headed out. Eli got on his feet as well, but I held him.He looked at me. I shook my head. He held my hand. "It's okay. We just have to go talk to him." He said."No, no. Please. He will not listen. He is a stubborn man." I almost cried, still holding him tightly. "Malia," "Have you seen the shit you have put my son into, you little bitch?" The don asked, making us look at him. My heart clenched at his words. "Dad, don't," Eli said. The don scoffed.

    My heart raced as he came on top of me. He stared at me, making my heart bang. My head is all over the place. The look on his face shows that he wants to touch me. I want him to. I want to be nothing but his. All his. But I am scared. I am scared that this might trigger those awful moments with Carlos. "What is going on in your head, sunshine?" He asked. I stared at him, feeling greatly uneasy. His eyes rested on my chest. They moved back to me. "What are you thinking?" He asked. "N... nothing." I stuttered nervously. He maintained eye contact as he moved the tiny hand of my nightgown down, exposing my breasts to his hungry eyes. He leaned down and kissed the middle of my breasts. A whimper left my mouth. "You are lying." He said, making me more uneasy. He moved his mouth around my cleavage. I felt shivers running down my spine. "What are you thinking, baby?" He asked. Good gracious. "I....I am not thinking about anything." I stuttered breathlessly. "Why are you li

    My heart clenched as I stared at Angela with Eli's mother. Her father is here and she is here too. That means they are here to convince Eli's parents, or they already have them so they can make Eli take her back. My heart tightened at my thoughts. "What is that bitch doing here, Dad?" Eli asked, making Angela's face twitch. "Eli," his mother called. "I know you are upset with my daughter, but you don't have to use such names," Mr Monero said. Eli scoffed. "If your daughter wasn't whoring around and fucking my brother, I wouldn't be calling her such names, Monero." Eli said. Mr Monero scowled at Eli. "Son, listen...." "Drop it, dad. I am done living my life for you and this family," Eli retorted. "Excuse me?" The don asked. "You fucking heard me. I don't know what your plans are for bringing these lunatics here, but I am not interested in Angela. She can marry Julio for all I care. At least they can pick up from where they started."

    My heart pounded where I stood. I looked ahead, and I saw my brothers walking towards the main entrance of the house. I can't let them hurt Eli. Why can't they leave him alone? Oh God. What am I going to do? Think, Malia, think! They closed the door behind them. My legs took me towards the door. I opened it slightly, and I saw them walking down the stairs while talking about something. I walked out of the door quietly and hid behind one of the pillars. They moved towards Leonardo's car and I descended the stairs quietly. I leaned down while walking towards the boot of the car. They didn't notice because they were focused on their discussion about Flavio. I got to the boot and dropped on my knees. "We are going to kill him and his entire family," Ivan said. What?"Yes, we are. That fucker doesn't know what is coming for him." Leonardo said, and I sensed him unlocking the car. I sensed them enter the car and I opened the boot and entered quietly. Leo started the car and dr

    "Eli," He stared at me in that same way that makes my legs weak. I couldn't believe my eyes. He is actually here. He is right in front of me. "Eli..... it's really you," I stuttered, still amazed. "Malia," he called, making my heart flutter. My name has never sounded so nice in a very long time. I smiled a little as I took slow steps towards him. I held his arm, giving myself some fulfillment that he is really here. I hugged him tightly, shutting my eyes. I took in his familiar scent. It messed with my senses in a very pleasant way. I love it. I missed it. God, I missed him so much.I thought I would never see him again. Oh God. He wrapped his hands around me, adding to my fluttering heart. "I missed you, Eli. I missed you so much," I said. "I missed you too, baby." My heart raced. He placed a kiss on my hair, making joyful tears approach my eyes. "I can't believe you are here." I said, unwrapping him and looking at him. "When did you.......how did you find me?" I

    "Uncle, tell him, please." I begged uncle Seth. He looked at my dad and was about to say something, but dad raised his hand at him, shutting him up. "Sit down," dad ordered, looking at me with anger. I slowly sat down, dropping my gaze as tears approached my eyes. "Listen attentively," Dad snarled, making me look at him. "East, please." Mum said. He raised his hand at her, still looking at me. "I said it before, and I will say it again. Forget that bastard." He said, making my heart clench. "You are home now. Far away from them. Be happy and forget about all of them because I am definitely going to kill them all for turning you into a slave." "They didn't know who I was." He scoffed. "I don't care. I am going to get back at them." "But dad...." "Enough!" He yelled, making me flinch. "East," mum called. "I don't want to ever hear his name in this house again.

    "Good night, baby," Mum said, kissing my temples. "Good night." I said with a low tone as she turned off the lights on my nightstand and walked out of my room. "I love you, sweetie." She said."I love you too, mum." I said. I heard her close my door. I reached for the light and turned it on. I sat up and heaved a sigh. My dad's words sang in my head. He is so angry with them. He doesn't care about what Eli did. Eli saved me. Why is dad still angry?I don't want him to kill Eli's family. It will hurt him. It is not their fault. They did know who I was. They actually found me and made me a maid. If it wasn't for them, Carlos would have found me. They actually saved me. Eli saved me. I miss him so much. I miss his pretty face. I miss the nicknames he usually calls me. I miss the way he makes me feel. His warm touch and his embrace. I miss everything about him. Am I really not going to see him again?

I rested my eyes on the windows as we moved. My heart feels so delighted right now. I will soon be home. I can't believe this. Eli came to my mind. I felt bad instantly. I wonder what he is doing right now. Could be looking for me? Is he worried? I miss him. I am alive because of him. I owe him everything. "Excited?" Uncle Seth asked, making me look at him. I nodded.He smiled. "Your parents will be very excited to see you." He said, making me smile. I turned back to the window, smiling at the thought of seeing my parents. I really missed them. I missed them so much. I am going to hug my mum tightly. And my dad as well. And my brothers. I am going to hug everyone. I miss them so much. I miss my home. I missed everything.

It was Uncle Diego. He turned to me and smiled. I let out a breathless laugh, feeling the excitement in my heart. Uncle Seth unwrapped me and cupped my face. I stared at him with my teary eyes as I placed my hand on his wrist. "God, I can't believe you are here, sunshine." He said. "I can't believe it either, uncle." I almost cried.
