Elena

We arrived in front of a heavy metal gate. After a few seconds, the doors opened to let us in. After driving for a few minutes, we finally got to the venue. It was glistening with lights and balloons.

There was a huge pool with people surrounding it. My eyes darted around like a little kid. This place looked so good. The ballroom was huge, with beautiful chandeliers and beautiful paintings.

“I thought you wouldn’t come.” We both turned our heads to the source of the voice. I believe his name is Hugo.

I don't even know if they're friends or enemies. “Don gave me a special invitation, I'm not ready to pick up a fight with him.” He said as he slipped his hands into his pockets.

He was wearing a cyan coloured top and some long pants. He looked good, though.

“Wow, the almighty Archer is now following rules.” He scoffed, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips.

“Shut up.” There was a long pause as Hugo turned to me.

“I have such bad manners, welcome. I can't touch y

    Archer Ric, Savien, and I stood in the garden as we talked about the brazil shipment. Although I felt uneasy with the way Elena stared at Savien, I decided to play it cool. “We're still trying to salvage the situation. The Russians seem to be getting very close to us.” Ric added, his voice clipped but steady. “I want you guys to dig deeper into this case even though Don didn't put me in charge. I need to get to the bottom of this.”Savien replied with a firm nod. “We will, boss.” Ric said in a low tone. “Also, make sure that the new guards are—”“Mr Archer, Mr Archer.” One of the guards rushed towards me. His voice was filled with panic, and he was out of breath. We all looked at him with keen eyes. Waiting for him to say something. My brows furrowed as I looked at him. “What is it?” I asked impatiently in a cold voice. “Miss–Miss Elena. She fell in the pool. She's not coming up.” For a split second, I felt like my heart stopped beating. Then, without another word, I broke in

    ElenaI opened my eyes slowly to an unfamiliar room. My face creased as I looked around. I tried sitting up, but I couldn't; that was when I realised. Fuck. Archer, I slept in Archer’s room. How the fuck did that even happen? Why is he cuddling me? What even happened last night? My head rang, and I winced softly as I clutched my forehead. What happened last night started to piece in. Archer saved me from drowning. Then he brought me home and slept beside me. I tried moving his hand away, but he tightened it even more. I let out a sigh of defeat as I lay there. Archer finally moved, and I immediately pretended to be asleep. He took his hand off me and got down from the bed. I heard the door close, and I opened one to look. “Phew, he left.” I murmured to myself as I sat up. Should I just go to my room? Or should I just be here? The door opened, and I didn't have time to pretend to fall asleep, so I just froze in place while looking at him.“You're up.” He walked closer while holdi

    Elena It's another boring day in my life in this empty house. Archer has agreed to let me work at the orphanage, but he said he needs to do a little check before he would allow me to go there.I'm not sure why, but I don't really care; at least I've been able to convince him. That is the only thing I am proud of. Archer and Ric left the house early in the morning for god knows what. That means I'm home alone with my crush. I smiled sheepishly to myself. He's so hot. I stepped outside of my room and decided to take a walk in the garden since it was the only place I was allowed to go in the house. Savien was stationed in front of the door.He stood there, all mighty and handsome with his hand clasped behind him. His eyes scanned the surroundings like a hawk. His posture was straight and formal. “Hi,” I said with a small smile. His eyes met mine, and he gave me a bow. “Hello, Miss.” Oh my god, what is up with him and all these formalities? Can't he see that I'm trying to pursue him

    “See you later Gia.” I waved her goodbye as I got inside the cab. Gia was my coworker and also my best friend. We started being friends when I began working here years ago. I'm not a rich girl but I'm surviving, my father hates my guts and my sister doesn't care about me. My mum disappeared one night when I was a kid and we never heard from her again. I was on my way to meet Tommy, my ex boyfriend. I know it's weird but he has been begging me for the last 4 months to give him a chance, so I decided to go on a date with him. Tommy didn't support my idea of being celibate so he broke up with me. I remember that day vividly. That day broke me into a million pieces, and I promised myself I wouldn't let myself get hurt like that again. Even though I loathed him, I still loved him. He said that he didn't care anymore so we should meet. I arrived in front of a club. My brows knitted in confusion. “This is not a restaurant.” I muttered to myself as I looked around. Why would he

    I was thrown into another dark, small room filled with some other girls. I guess we share the same fate. I still couldn't fathom what Tommy just did. No wonder why he didn't touch his drink. Is that why the security guard gave me that look when I entered? Were they all in on it. The door opened, and they threw 3 more girls inside. This is not the time to cry, I've been through worse. Most of the girls were crying, but I was thinking about possible ways to escape. The door opened again, and a woman stepped inside with a basket in her hand. She started throwing apples at us. Is she fucking serious? A woman? She's okay seeing her fellow women go through this? This is fucking inhumane. “Are you fucking serious? We are not animals. How can you even call yourself a woman while seeing us go through this?” I spat angrily at her and her eyes narrowed at me. “What the fuck did you just say?” She said while walking closer to me and slapping me on my face. The slap was so hard that I t

    “We'll have her delivered once we process the payment.” The blonde woman said to him. The old man stared at me lustfully, and I felt like puking. Is he not embarrassed with himself? Am I not old enough to be his daughter or granddaughter? He is such a shameless man. The man was about to touch me when Joker suddenly stopped him midway. “You don't get to touch unless the payment process is finished.” He chuckled awkwardly. “Okay, I'll see you next week, pretty little thing.” He said with a smile, and the sides of his eyes creased. Joker held my hand and dragged me, pulling me to his office. “I heard you're feisty. You better drop it unless you want to end up like your little friends.” My eyes widened when he reminded me of what he did to the two girls. Even though I was scared, I didn't act scared at all. I wanted him to know that I wasn't intimidated by him. “Eyes down.” His deep voice rang, but I ignored. I stared at him with daggers in my eyes. “Fucking keep your eyes

    “Who are you?” His voice was cold and commanding. All of a sudden, I lost the ability to speak. Fuck, why am I suddenly surrounded by such dangerous men? “She's Volkov's new toy. He bought her from the Russians. I'm assuming he used our money because he bought her for 50 million dollars. I got confirmation from one of the guys.” The driver spoke. I'm guessing that the driver was never Terry's driver. This might have been a plan all along, to get him isolated and kill him. Is this how New York has always been? Or am I in a different place? “Why the fuck would he buy a whore at such a price? Fucking asshole, he just wanted to use the money.” The tall man spoke. My eyes drifted to his hands. He was wearing a black sweatshirt that hugged his body. His arms were covered in tattoos, and he looked toned. His biceps were huge. “I think the reason why she is that expensive is because she's a virgin.” Fuck, whenever I hear that, I feel like falling into a hole and never coming out.

    My eyes fluttered open when I heard muffled noises. I ignored it and tried sleeping. I was thinking that I was just hearing things, but it became a bit louder. I sat up on my bed while rubbing my eyes. What is happening? Is it morning already? My eyes drifted to the clock on the wall, and it read 2:12am. It's 2 in the morning. Who could it be? Growing up, I became very active when sleeping. The littlest sounds would wake me up. After my mum disappeared, I convinced myself that she would return, but probably when I was sleeping, because on the night she disappeared, I heard her speak to me. She kissed me on the forehead, and that was it, I never saw her again. So, I trained myself to always be attentive while sleeping in case she returned. I walked closer to my door. What am I doing? Ric specifically warned me not to wander around. I might get in trouble, no. I walked back to my bed. The sounds became more and more loud. What if one of the maids is in trouble? What i

    Elena I can't believe that I'm getting ready to go to that skank's birthday party. I don't know why Archer insists on going with me. She hates me; she wouldn't want to see me at her birthday party, so why is he taking me along?Archer is so unpredictable sometimes. I can never predict his next move. I still remember the night he stayed with me when I had a nightmare. I still can't comprehend. Why did he stay? I smoothed my hand over my beige dress as I turned to get a better look at myself in the mirror. How does Archer find such good clothes that fit my taste? I mean, I would have always worn clothes like this if I wasn't poor. It's almost like he's making me live my rich girl dream. The little girl in me must be giggling right now. I've always wanted to have expensive outfits, and now I'm getting them for free. The only thing I hate about this is that I'm attending events I don't want to go to. The dress was so beautiful, accentuating my curves nicely. I don't know how to do m

    Archer I tapped my forefinger on the table quietly as Don talked. Our shipments in Brazil were delayed, so we needed a plan to amend that. That was a total dick move if the Brazilians have a hand in this. They're playing with fire. It's like they sometimes forget who they're dealing with. The New York Mafia is the most powerful gang. Playing with us is like playing with fire. “I need answers, gentlemen. How did this happen?” Hugo looked tense. Well, he has to be because it was his mission.Although I believe it's not entirely his fault. Hugo is a perfectionist, so I know that he tried his best. “There was an ambush at the port, sir.” The veins on his forehead looked like they were going to pop. “The Brazilians didn't hold the end of their bargain. They bailed on us when the Russians showed up.” The room became noisy with murmurs. Of course, Russians again. These fuckers never give us a break. They're tailing us everywhere. I'm so sick of them and their stupid little games. Somet

    Elena “El, El, El.” My name echoed in the small room. I recognise this room. My chest went up and down as I breathed heavily. My hands started to tremble, and my lips quivered. I immediately turned to my side and saw her leaving. “Mum!” I tried climbing off my bed, but I couldn't. My legs were bound to the bed. I tried moving, but it felt like I was glued to the bed; all efforts were useless. “Where the fuck do you think you're going?” My father asked as he smacked my cheeks.A loud yelp escaped my lips as his hand landed on my other cheek. He grabbed my face and forced me to look at him.“This is all your fault. Remember that. She left because of you.”I shook my head vigorously. “No, no, no, no.” I shut my eyes tightly. My eyes opened and I realised that I was now in my room in Archer’s house. My hair was damp from the sweat. Beads of sweat were evident on my forehead and my heartbeat raced. Realising that I was here brought me a tiny bit of relief. I placed my hand on my hea

    Elena “Elena, Elena, wait. Let me explain.”“Explain what you fucking cunt? You wanted me to die, didn't you?”At this point, I was on top of him as he was pinned down. My hands were in his curly hair as I gripped it tightly. Causing him immense pain. He struggled and tried to pull me off, but I didn't budge. “You sold me off, to some fucking cult. I was sold to an old man you fucking bastard. I watched my life flash before me countless times, I was in hell while you were probably enjoying yourself. So what? Are you here to find more victims? Did you use up all the 1 million?”“Elena, listen. It's really not what you think. I was in debt, a serious one. They were after me, my life was in danger. I needed to save myself. You should be happy for me. I'm safe and sound now. I knew you'd escape, you're a tough girl.”I scoffed in disbelief. I thought maybe getting an explanation from him would calm me down a bit but now I'm more furious. “You thought I could escape a place heavily g

    Elena I stared in the mirror for a while, feeling paranoid. Will he be here too? Oh, I'm fucking scared. This place is not as crowded as the last event; how would he be able to attend with all this security? “Hi.” A soft voice called out, and I turned to look at the person. It was the woman from earlier, I can't remember what her name was. She seems sweet, I'm guessing that she is one of Archer's mistresses. “Are you Eddie's new girlfriend?” “Why are you calling him Eddie?” I did remember the old man from the event calling him Ed. Now this woman is also calling him Eddie. “That is his name. He just doesn't broadcast it because he doesn't want people digging into his matter. He's called Edward Cattaneo.” Wow, his name is beautiful. I prefer that to that silly nickname. “Oh.” “Are you his girlfriend?” “ Why are you so interested in that?” I asked with a puzzled expression. I couldn't help but notice how bent she was on finding that out. Why is she so interested in that
