Dark. I saw only dark and deep woods when I looked around. But I didn't stop. I ran kilometer after kilometer on my bare feet over the raw path in the jungle, in the middle of the night.Every step felt like it was the last step of my life. Only moonlight was showering the raw path. I was so afraid of jungle creatures. Though I hadn't heard about any tiger or bear in this jungle but that doesn't mean it was safe. What if some wild creatures attack me? When I got out of Nicolas's house, some wild creature could easily eat me and nobody would ever find me.Was it a bad decision to escape, I thought again and again. My mouth was dry, my legs felt numb and my full body was aching and burning. But I had to run. I had to escape from this hell. I didn't know how long I was running in the scary forest alone. Fear and loneliness were engulfing me, tears rolling down incessantly at the same time. But then, I found the lights of hope. A large smile appeared on my lips and I cried in victory
I let out a long sigh and knocked on Uncle Jacob's door. I was thinking about how would they react to seeing me early in the morning after many days. I was wondering if Uncle Jacob was home or not. A few minutes passed and then I heard footsteps. The door cracked open and I met Uncle Jacob, Auntie Hannah was standing behind him. When they saw me, their eyes went wide and their mouth slightly opened."Natalia?" Uncle Jacob mumbled in shock. "Oh my God! Talia baby?" Auntie Hannah gasped.Tears rolled down my cheeks as I started crying.Hannah ran toward me and quickly wrapped me in her arms and pulled me into the house. "Talia baby, how did this happen? Why are you bruised? Where were you?" She panicked and cupped my cheeks. "I've searched for you everywhere. I even contacted the city police and the international airport authority but we got no sign of you and your family. Where were you, Talia baby?" Uncle Jacob said urgently. "Talk to me! Talia baby? How did this happen?" Auntie
It had been two days since I escaped from his dominance, his truculence. Every day in these two days was a living hell for me. I neither could sleep alone nor could I stay alone anywhere, even for a moment. Every time I jumped and flinched when the doorbell rang or any extemporaneous sounds occurred, even for a slight movement.Uncle Jacob assigned two security guards at his house but I could bet they were nothing in front of Nicolas and his men. Since I was too afraid to sleep alone, I slept in Nova's bedroom. Every night was a torture to me as I couldn't close my eyes even for a few minutes. I felt him, his fragrance, his touch, his darkened ocean-blue eyes, and his sweet melodious cold voice whenever I closed my eyes. And I feared it most because he's a cold-blooded monster.The commissioner had called a meeting with all the officers and the police department had decided to search the forest. Uncle Jacob was doing his best to find my family and catch the gang. Fardinn and his fath
Nicolas, Stephen, Victor, and John standing with five bulky men, all in black. A toothy grin plastered on their face. I gasped in horror. The most horrible thing was, the flying hawk was now sitting peacefully on Nicolas's left arm!"Finally! Nice to meet you, Officer." Nicolas grinned, black sunglasses lying on his nose lazily.He looked so fucking sexy with the hawk on his arm. If he wasn't a criminal, I would easily meltdown on him. Shut up, Natalia! "What do you want, Nicolas?" Uncle Jacob uttered."Simple. Her. I want her." He shrugged."Why did you kill Sheeran? And now why do you want her?" "What the fuck?! Are we here for an interrogating session? Fuck me!" John growled.Auntie, Nova, and I flinched. "Stop interrogating. We have a lot of time for that. Now I want her." Nicolas uttered."I will never give her to you. Surrender yourself to the police with your all criminal friends willingly, I can reassure your punishment that it won't be that painful." Uncle Jacob said in a
I groaned in annoyance when Stephen shook me to get up. I rubbed my eyes before looking ahead and realized Nicolas and Victor were nowhere to be seen. Looking outside through the window, I saw we were in front of the mansion in the jungle. Every man of Nicolas looked so busy as some were carrying crates and some were carrying luggage, it seemed they were shifting somewhere else. Stephen took my hands and helped me to get out of the car as I thanked him."Why are they rushing?" I asked Stephen."We're already revealed and cops are after us, hence they'll show up anytime soon." He pursed his lips."Oh." That was all I said before following him inside.Nicolas, Victor, and John were sitting at the dining table and talking while some new maids were serving lunch."Where's Anna and Lucy?" I frowned and asked Stephen."Nick killed as soon as he heard that you were gone. He also killed two security guards, Natalia." Stephen sighed before murmuring."What?!" I gasped loudly.How could he do
When I opened my eyes, I realized I was in a private jet, my head was throbbing in pain, and a heavy bandage wrapped around it again. Nice.Nicolas was sitting beside me, tapping on his phone, and Stephen reading a magazine sitting in front of us. I hissed as I tried to move my head and that caught their attention."You're awake. How are you feeling now?" Stephen asked."It hurts so much. I can't move my head." I hissed."Take this pill. It'll help to alleviate the pain." He smiled and gave me a white pill."Thank you," I muttered. I took it from him and washed it down with a bottle of water. Nicolas didn't say anything. He was just tapping on his phone continuously and he looked a little more stressed. "Are you okay here or you would like to lay down on the bed?" Stephen asked."I would like to lay down," I murmured.Stephen stood up then wrapped his arm around my shoulder and guided me backyard of the jet. Nicolas said nothing, not even looking at me for once. Stephen helped me t
When I woke up, I was feeling a bit better and we finally arrived in Italy. As soon as the plane landed, Nicolas, Victor, and John disappeared outside. Stephen helped me to get into one of the black Rolls-Royce phantom that was parked in front of the plane with three other vehicles, a yellow Lamborghini Aventador, a red Ferrari F8, and a black R15 bike.My mouth was hung open, thinking about how rich these criminals were. I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't notice Nicolas was already inside the car and still tapping on his phone. He didn't throw a glance at me like I never existed and that relaxed me a bit. Stephen moved to the Lamborghini leaving me alone with Nicolas.The bulky-looking driver asked something in Italian to Nicolas before starting the car. I saw Victor passing our car with his R15 and then John sped up and drove past our car with his red Ferrari before winking at me. I just rolled my eyes at him. Cold late October breezes hit my face and ripped inside my
Two days passed but Nicolas and his friends were nowhere to be seen since the day Nicolas left the house early in the morning. I didn't leave the comfortable luxurious room in these two days, not even for a tour of the house. I ate my meals inside the room which maids brought me without any complaints. Most of the time I spent on the balcony, watering and taking care of flower plants and looking at the dense woods blankly. I was grateful that there were at least flower plants which would help to keep my mind calm. Today I decided to leave the bedroom for a house tour. Laura left my breakfast and pills on the table placed beside the huge window. After finishing up, I slipped into a loose lavender sweater because it was cold outside and black jeans. I ate and took my pills then headed downstairs. Amelie had come to the previous night and removed my bandage. This house had more tight security and scary-looking guards than the jungle's one in my country. "Do you need anything, miss?" La
"Just relax. You'll be okay." He rasped before positioning himself between my legs. His big hard cock throbbed and precum dripped from it. My mouth watered. "Wait!" I blurted out. "What happened?" His face paled in confusion. "I want to do something with your- ah- that." I blushed pointing at his hard erection. Mariano smirked mischievously. "You want to do what with my dick, babygirl? You want it in your little mouth?" He whispered beside my ear as I nodded with warm cheeks. "I want words, Marjan." He demanded and it turned me on. "Yes." I whispered, looking into his eyes with desire. I switched our position as he was now under me. I started kissing and biting the skin of his neck, leaving hickeys. I wrapped my hand around his hard shaft and ran my thumb on his precum dripping tip. He let out a loud growl. "You're driving me crazy, Marjan!" He grunted. I kept pumping his erection and kissing his hard chest, torso and then his cock. His breathing was shaky as he let out s
The car stopped in front of a tall building. It wasn't a hotel or something like that. Mariano led me inside the elevator and pressed the button on the ninth floor. "Where are we?" I asked in confusion. "We are heading in my apartment. I've arranged everything here." He replied with a sly smirk. I felt my breath stopped. Only God knew what was he going to do with me tonight. As we finally reached his floor, he opened his apartment door, revealing a well decorated and dimly lit living room. The apartment was huge. It was so cozy, clean and modern. There was an open kitchen, floor to ceiling windows and a few doors which I assumed was bedrooms. "Your house is beautiful." I smiled. "Well, I barely come here. My actual house in Italy is hundredth times bigger than this." He chuckled. Rich criminal. Mariano led me toward a dining table placed between the kitchen and the floor-to-ceiling window. I saw a clear view of the city from the window. "I hope the food is not cold." I h
Everything happened so suddenly that I widened my eyes and stayed immobile. It took me a few moments to realize what was going on.Mariano was kissing me.I tried to push him but he pulled me closer and moved his lips. I felt like all of my anger, hurt and sadness vanished in one blink as I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back.His grip on my neck tightened, making me moan and open my mouth. He took the opportunity to shove his hot tongue inside my mouth and explore me.His kiss became rough and hungry with so much passion. I clenched my thighs as his one hand roamed over my waist and butt cheeks, making me gasp and moan every time. When we were out of breath, we finally broke the kiss and breathed heavily."Damn. You talk too fucking much. Talk nonsense anymore, I'll make sure you learn your lesson." He rasped, forcing me to clench my thighs tightly."And I don't have a fucking girlfriend. Ava was an ex and she was trying to get my dick again but I didn't let her come
Marjan's POV:Months later... Time passed as Mariano and I kept meeting and knowing each other. He used to take me many places.It had been three days, I haven't heard from Mariano.He suddenly changed and started ignoring me. I called him multiple times in these three days but neither did he pick up nor did he answer my messages. Today I decided to go to the mall. When I reached the mall, I felt like someone was following me. When I looked around, I saw Mariano. I straightened myself and looked around, pretending like I never saw him behind me. I kept walking fast and got in a nearby shop. When I looked behind, Mariano was gone then. Disappointment shot through me. I shouldn't care about him. When he could ignore me, I needed to ignore him too. "Marjan?" I jumped when a familiar voice called my name. I turned around and met the pair of familiar grey eyes. "Hi!" I forced out a smile and started walking.I felt my heart ache. Maybe I was being too clingy that's why he decided to
Marjan's POV:I was feeling so hot as I started sweating in the cold temperature. I got in the washroom and spattered some water on my face.I was in a breathing mess, so I took a long breath to calm myself down. When I finally calmed myself down, I opened the door and made my way outside but them a I hit myself with a drunk man."Hey, it's ladies washroom!" I spoke and scrunched my nose as he smelled like shit."I know, baby. I just followed you." He grinned disgustingly, making me cringed."What? How dare you? Get out of my way!" I shouted and pushed him but he didn't bulge.Fear started consuming me. I looked around but found no one. I was now alone with a drunken man nowhere in the ladies washroom. If he somehow did something wrong, nobody was there to help me."You're so sexy. While you were dancing with that son of a bitch and rubbing you sexy ass against his, I couldn't take my eyes off. Now don't shout and come to me." He started walking forward as I started backing away."No
Marjan's POV:It took the car stopped in front of Nicolas' club Cimitero like forever. This was the club where I came first with Reema and Natalia, Nicolas first saw Natalia and determined to kidnap her. Everyone got out of the car as I released a long sigh of relief. Reema and Natalia giggled as I threw daggers on them.Fucking bitches made me fell in this awkward situation. I shouldn't have come with them. We all entered the club and the familiar smell of alcohol and cigarettes hit my nostrils. Everyone made their way upstairs to the private floor as I followed them.Natalia disappeared with Nicolas and the brunette took Reema with him in the bar. Now the blonde and I were left alone."I think, I forgot to introduce myself." The blonde broke the silence."I'm Mariano." He smirked gliding his eyes up and down my body."I'm Marjan." I smiled shyly and sat on a couch. "Nice to meet you, Marjan." Nothing sounded perfect like hearing my name from him."You're beautiful." He leaned for
Marjan's POV:A few years ago... "You fucking kidding me?!" I screamed."Do I look like I am?" Natalia rolled her eyes at me. "I really can't believe the whole story you're telling right now. My head is spinning, girl." Reema groaned and threw her body on the bed."I know it's unbelievable but it really happened." Natalia sighed and leaned against the headboard.Natalia was kidnapped by Nicolas, the notorious criminal from Italy who was one of the most feared criminals throughout the world. In the evening, when we got the news of Natalia coming back, I and Reema literally broke into her house and then we got so emotional. We demanded every detail about when she stayed with Nicolas. Finding no escape, she told us everything that happened with her in the previous three months. She also couldn't hide that Nicolas climbed into her bedroom with a ladder and they had sex last night. "Now, what are you going to do?" I asked, chewing one of the KitKats I got on Natalia's nightstand."I do
"Daddy, why mamma call you 'daddy' in the bedroom?" I heard my five-year-old daughter ask her father.Nicolas choked on his coffee and I choked on my own saliva. I glared at Nicolas from the kitchen who shrugged nonchalantly. "Principessa, never talk about this in front of anyone, sí? Your mamma doesn't call me daddy. She calls me 'Nivana's Daddy'. You heard it wrong." Nicolas spoke as he put our daughter on his lap."No, no. I heard it right! I also heard mamma making weird sounds last night." She mused."Nivana." I glared at her.Nivana smiled at me innocently. I mentally rolled my eyes and made my way toward my daughter who is just like her father, got ocean-blue eyes, black hair, pale skin, stubborn personality and smart mouth."Last night mamma was sick, okay? Now stop talking and finish the omelette." I stood with arms akimbo, frowning at my little angel."And my sweet sweet husband. You don't know your daughter was distracting you so that she can skip the food? When will you
We all had dinner beside the river. My two bestie and Nicolas' friends managed to decorate the area when Nicolas was fucking me inside our bedroom. I also came to know that Nicolas was planning to propose me with my parents and friends for a while. After dinner, we all had a conversation and then everyone went to their rooms.Hearing about my pregnancy, Nicolas started being extra careful. He didn't let me wash the dishes, stayed with me from the evening and even helped me to climb up the stairs."You're acting ridiculous. I can climb up the stairs. And I'm only four weeks pregnant. I can do everything like before." I rolled my eyes as we entered the bedroom."Whatever, I'm not gonna leave your side." He pressed me on his chest and said in a husky voice."You make me feel like a patient." I scoffed."No. I'll book an appointment with the doctor tomorrow. I called Amelie and Alfredo. They gave me some information about pregnancy. I told Amelie to come often and check you up." He mumbl
