Cora "I asked you a question damnit!" Her loud voice made me flinch. "I...I...I lost my way" I stuttered looking anywhere but her. She scoffed. "That's the most silliest fucking excuse I have ever heard" "I swear....I wasn't eavesdropping please...." "You were fucking eavesdropping I fucking saw your bitchy eyes. You are a spy aren't you?" I look at her with my wet eyes, nodding to convince her. "Wait till I tell the boss" No. "He will have your little head on a plate!" She spat. Terror consumed me. "No please! I am telling the truth!" My beating heart was relentless. She grabbed me by my collar, I shudder in fright. God this is the end of me. "I am taking you straight to the boss" she make a step but I stood back. "Please ma'am Lisa don't take me to the boss" tears rolled down my eyes. "Call me Lisa again I will punch you in the fucking face!" She spat as she grip my collar. "Sorry ma'am Mona. I beg you please!" I pleaded moving back with the little strength I have b
It takes away my pain. I head out of the storeroom and towards Lucia. She is busy stirring the soup. Smells so nice. "What do you need me to do?" I asked. "Oh yes. The carrots needs chopping so does the ginger and garlic. We are making the bosses' favourite today. He loves vegetables " I nod as I moved closer to the carrots on the island and began chopping. "You must be wondering why we have a lot of workers in the kitchen here today " she said. "Yes I am" "Well we use to have a lot before but the boss executed all of them" I gasped out of terror. "What?" My hands felt weak instantly. She chuckled "Relax." My heartbeat picked up. "They were spies. And one thing the boss hate are spies" Oh god. This place is terrible. "And they poisoned everyone's food while i was away. They had no idea that I and the boss were watching them from the record room. So he made them eat the food and shot them while they were choking" God he is an heartless person. "Anyways we have new work
Iris I watch as the poor girl's body meet the ground. Her eyes closed, looking frightened to death. All thanks to my maniac blood thirsty violent older brother! I look at him. "What the fuck is wrong with you?!" "Watch your tune Iris" "No you mind the way you treat people damnit!" I snapped angrily. He has always been like this ever since we were kids. He is always violent and loves killing people. "Why the hell did she come here in the first place?" He asked Seth. "She could be a spy" I scoffed "Unbelievable" "Cora wake up" I hear Seth call after her trying to wake her up but the girl is out. I won't blame her. East is a beast. "Get her out of here Seth" East said as he walked towards his desk. Seth picked Cora up bridal style. "I'll take her to one of the rooms. Call the doctor Iris" He said as he walked away. I look back at my monster of a brother. "You are a sick violent monster and that's fucking unhealthy" I said to East. He heaved a sigh as he sat on his seat. "Th
You do something wrong and I will tell it to your fucking face. I aren't scared. This bitch is about to be a fucking attorney. Anyways I can't tell who my parents are. I was told my dad died when I was so tender. My mum....she left us. God knows if she is alive or not. None of my business. So thanks to East, we are living life as wealthy people. I know he did it through illegal means but it put food on our table and seeing me through school. More reason I promise not to concern myself with whatever he and Seth does when I become an attorney. Can't bite the hands that made me who I am. No way. But I can scratch the hands a bit for being all pushy. Get it? I know you do. Well life in school has been amazing. I am a straight A student but not a straight woman. I am a lesbian. To be honest I do have a lot of girlfriends in school. All are the ones seeking my attention and i can't tell if they are genuine or is it because of my status as a girl from wealthy home? Anyways I don
CORA I whimper the minute I felt the cold pointy metal pin to the side of my head. I cried silently as I thought about how it will feel once he pulls the trigger and the bullet enters into my skull. It will sting I know it will. He gripped my arm tightly as he pinned the gun to my head harder. I shut my eyes tightly making tears roll out as I await my death. It's over for me. I am about to die. I am leaving this world. "Cora!" A familiar voice called out. I froze. Is it who I think it is? "Cora!" "Hunter?" "Cora!" I think it is. It's Hunter! I recognise his voice very well. I look ahead and I sight his tall figure approaching us. He is carrying a bag and smiling at me. I let out a breath of excitement and relief. Almost chuckling. He is here. He came for me. He is finally here! God has sent him to me again. My angel. Finally I am going home. Thanks good Lord! "Let her go"he said to the boss. "Where the fuck is my money you bastard?" The boss' voice made me shu
Aww such a cute dog. What's his name?" Iris asked. "Sky" I said smiling. "Hey Sky" she said as she shake his paw. I smiled again. I look at Seth. He is looking at me. "Thank you sir" "It's nothing. Just get some rest. No need to work today. I'll be downstairs" he said before walking out of the room. He is indeed a nice person. I wonder how someone like him could be a brother to a soulless man. It doesn't make sense. Oh well with him around, I have no problem staying here. Iris and Nadia are very nice and friendly. Seth is everything. Living here won't be that hard. As long as they are here and I do all it takes to avoid the boss, i'll be fine. I still hope and wait on Hunter. Iris is right. The dream I had is just a dream. Not real life. Hunter will come for me. I am positive. *********************************** Lucia I walk towards the other side of the kitchen. I direct one of the junior chefs on how to stir the sauce. I walk back to the soup I was stirring when
Seth Almost sunrise, I am still on the bed with the love of my life. Lucia. The only woman that has managed to capture my heart. Love just happened without considering the age gap between us. Well I don't give a shit about it. Age is nothing but a number. Besides, who says a man must date a younger woman? She move a bit in her sleep on my bare chest. She is laying on my bare chest and my arm is around her, caressing her hair. We are both naked and the sheets is covering us half way. Last night was a blast as always. Sex with her is more than great. I was pissed yesterday. She is the reason why Cora was at East's mercy. But I couldn't stay angry with her for long. And she has been apologizing. One of the things I love about her is, she knows when she is wrong and never feel too big to apologize. The best part is she doesn't bother about the age. She maintains the fact that I am the man in this relationship. She has treated me with more respect than any other girl I have dat
"Guess who did it?" I thought about one possible person. "Lorenzo" I thought right. "That bastard" I said clenching my knuckle. Lorenzo Dante has always been a threat to us ever since I can remember. He never cease to get on our nerves. This time he has done the worst. I should have killed the bastard when I had the chance. He is surely going to die this time. "I want him dead" East demanded. "You just read my mind" I said and look at the men. Diego, Martins." I called, giving them a nod and we head out. Hang on tight Lorenzo. We are coming for you. Bastard. ************************************Cora I am cuddling Sky on my bed, in my room at the workers' quarters. Yeah I am out of that beautiful guest room and back in my room with my roommate, Nadia. I am just a worker here so I can't stay there forever. I like my room though. Mainly because Nadia is nice. And Sky is very comfortable here. I guess he has adapted very well already. The day has gone by fast like flash
"The fuck?" Ivan asked."Who the hell is that?" Julio asked. "Don Rossi!" My dad yelled again. "Who is that?!" The don asked. "My.....my dad." I muttered, making everyone look at me. 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. "Stay here, Malia," Eli said, releasing himself from my hold and headed out. "No, Eli," I called, standing on my feet as I watched him walking away. "Go after him." The don said."Eli told her to stay here." Eli's mother said to him."If your fathe
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." Eli said, walking towards the stairs witho
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. Kill that stupid feeling because nothing is ever going to happen between you two. I will
"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? My heart clenched at my thoughts. It hurts. It hurts deeply. I am happy to b
I got down from the jet along with uncle Seth and others. I took in the familiar smell and feeling of home. Tears begged to flow as we walked towards the black cars. We got in and drove away. 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. I still can't believe I am back to Italy. I am miles aw
The door to the van closed and it moved. My heart begged to explode as I struggled in the person's hold. "Let go of me!" I yelled and the person released me instantly. I looked at who it was. I froze. It was my uncle, Seth. "Malia," he called, smiling. "Uncle Seth," I called, feeling my tears approaching. Oh my God. I can't believe this. I hugged him instantly. He wrapped his arms around me tightly.He found me. .I can't believe this. He found me! I am finally with my family!."Hey, Kiddo." I heard another familiar voice but at the front seat. 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. He brought my temples closer and placed a kiss on it. I closed my eyes, feeling delighted. H
