Inez was greeted by Sofia with a big smile and a handshake. After giving Sofia's hand a quick glance, Inez shook it.Damien urged Inez to sit on the chair in front of them, putting his hand on her waist.There were four of them seated at the table, and Damien and Ethan were chatting about business plans. Demien occasionally glanced at Inez but even though she tried to smile, her expression didn't endorse her.Despite her best efforts, she couldn't help but look upset. It wasn't that she didn't like Ethan; rather, she was preoccupied with thoughts of what he might think of her.selfish, a gold digger, and many others.Her mind was suddenly flooded with all of her old memories.On the other hand, Ethen couldn't understand why she and Damien Knight were there.Especially when he was a Mafia member, she was never the one to be with someone like him.She detested all types of violence, including criminals, and blood.His thoughts returned to reality when Sofia, who was seated next t
FLASHBACK"Inez what have you done?"Her father shouted at her, making her whole body tremble in fear."Papa, i didn't do anything", she said while crying and looking at her father."You haven't done anything then what he is doing in the hospital bed ,you hit him with that vase, he started to have internal bleeding, do you know what that means?",her father said, gritting his teeth."Dad,he tried..to", she spoke but stopped and looked at him with pleading eyes.She was too afraid to tell her father that it wasn't her fault but he tried to touch her in the wrong way."He tried what? You should be admitted to a mental hospital since you are crazy "her dad stated.For hours, she just continued to sob. Taliha arrived with reddened eyes and a distressed appearance."Inez tell the truth?" Taliha questioned while seated in front of her.As Inez stared at her mother, she sobbed even harder and told her everything he had said and done to her.Taliha's eyes were blood red, and she hugged her d
FLASHBACK CONTINUEDEven though Ethan was Inez's senior, he never bullied her and always encouraged her, even in her academic activities, as the days passed and their friendship grew closer.She had always thought of him as a friend, but other girls in school were bursting into flames because of jealousy. He easily made a large number of male friends and never paid any attention to any other girls, but eventually everyone began to notice that he never developed a close relationship with any girl but Inez.She was the only one.She never considered the possibility that he may like her, despite the fact that no matter how much unfinished work he had, he always ran to her whenever she asked for assistance.Every time she had the thought that he was all a girl could ever want, she just had one question for herself "How could he ever like her? a boy like him can get anything, yet she has nothing."She was everything he wanted, but she was unaware of it.Natalia stated as
Without hesitancy, she looked into his eyes and nodded, "Okay, I will but...""But what?",He asked because he was getting impatient."I've heard from Natalia that boys want hugs, kisses, and other things".He chuckled and nodded in response to her question before closing the gap between them by joyfully hugging her,"Will Just give a hug; Is that okay?".He kissed her cheek and said, "DONE, No kissing",She immediately shoved him away while feigning disbelief, but her face quickly grew crimson from shyness.She yelled at him, "You just kissed me," and he laughed louder, "It's not a kiss, it's a peck, and I understand kiss, but what's that other thing?"She repeatedly blinked in an effort to grasp his idea before showing him her index finger again as.She warned him, "Just that, nothing more than that.""Wow, the young tigress is angry. What are those other things, and tell me about it." He inquired while appearing innocent, but she realised he was directing her."You're not a ki
She remained silent the entire journey. When she first saw the mansion, she was in awe,He parked his car in a sizable underground garage.She had never seen so many expensive cars before, and the mansion screamed nobility.The elegant architect of the entire mansion, paintings on the walls to demonstrate their extent of power.Although she had heard of his wealth, she had never imagined it to be this much she followed him inside looking every corner and painting, heart beat was doing a marathon as she saw stepping in the mansion.When she heard the women's distressed voice when she was lost in thinking "ohh…My son Ethan, are you Alright?"He melted in her arms as she ran to give him a hug, and his worry and anger disappeared as well.Inez stood behind him and continued to just stare at them both.He murmured, "Mom, I'm OK, nothing happened," while she sobbed in his arms."Ethan tell your mother you will face these things everyday so she doesn't need to waste her tears like thi
Ethan's father told the driver to drop her off at the hostel and she said goodbye to everyone after dinner.His father had decided ,ethan wouldn't leave the house for a few days while they searched for the person who had fired the gunshot on his son.She was sitting on the back seat when her phone vibrated and she took it out ,it was ethan."Hey,Have you reached there?"He asked as soon as she picked up the call.She smiled a little and answered him,"Not yet,I'm about to,by the way it was nice to see your parents"."Yes, they liked you alot ", he replied and they talked for a while,he ended the call because his father wanted to talk with him.When she entered the dorm room, Natalia was seated on the chair next to the study table , glaring at her, her face was stonic.She asked, "What?" but she made no further comment.She rephrased, "Have I done something wrong?" but was again met with silence.She muttered, "Alright just keep yourself silent, it's good for me," and put her
She was eyeing other men even after being in a relationship, and she had never seen Ethan like she saw Daniel.What did that mean?The reply was that it's love at first sight..Even the thought of betraying Ethan made her feel repulsed; she imagined another man for her ,when Ethan was there to support her.She made the decision to speak with Ethan after entering the hostel. She might be able to let Daniel pass from his mind.It was just an attraction that's all.When night fell, she spoke with Ethan, but her thoughts were constantly preoccupied with that one enticing man.She was unable to focus much on Ethan, even though she was aware that she would never see Daniel again and would have no way to speak with him. Despite this, her mind and heart kept on resisting.three days went like hours.She wanted to forget him and told Natalia everything in the hopes that she could give her peace of mind by making her forget him. However, his face and smile continued to domin
Ehtan was in the kitchen, and Inez was seated on the couch.Her mother reached out and grasped her arms, hoisting her up while gritting her teeth.Inez was startled to see his mother there, and then her head swiftly turned to the side under the impact of a hard slap.Her cheek was searing with pain, so she put her hands on it to rub the sensation away.Her mother fumed, "You are shameless, how can you stay in my son's house after doing that bitchy behaviour huh?"Hearing voice from outside Ethan went out of the kitchen,glaring angrily at his mother,he wasn't the same Ethan who can never actinappropriately around his parentsAs his mother heard him say, "Mom, back off," she turned to face him.She turned back to Inez and questioned, "How can you, Ethan?""I can do whatever I want"His mother stared at him in shock as he growled.Without saying a word, she turned and left his home. Ethan turned to face the girl, who was already dealing with a lot.Inez returned to her fath
She was standing in front of him, fixing his tie and patting his chest. She grabbed his suit and followed him. He quickly slid his hands inside the coat, while she straightened the hem and dusted the invisible dust.He chuckled as he looked at her focused face, and her smile vanished as she stared at him, lifting her eyebrows."Are you planning something?" He inquired, because every time she smiled like a fool thinking about something, it meant she was about to do something.She grinned and grabbed the lapels of his coat, causing him to bend slightly, and she connected her lips with his, deepening the kiss she sucked his tongue which he was thrusting in her mouth, they both kissed passionately as he pulled her closer to him, grabbing her ass and squeezing it.Their lips parted ways, and she screamed again as she breathed on his lips. He seemed surprised by her actions, and she gazed him in the eyes."Just come early Tonight," she said, and hearing her sensual voice, he wanted to fuck h
ONE WEEK LATER…The Entire House Was bustling with Sounds, as they had planned a get-together before leaving for New York.Ethan's parents, Damien's parents, and Inez's father were spending time in the living room, while Inez, Sofia, Nancy, Damien, Rafeal, and Ethan were cooking in the kitchen."Dani ! Stay away from her," Rafeal stated as he noticed Damien getting closer to Inez.Everyone in the kitchen laughed as Damien marched back to Basin, his face irritated, while Ethan smiled and handed him vegetables.Inez was flushing profusely as she cast a sidelong glance at Him. She remembered how she had to wear large sleeves and a turtleneck dress only to hide the marks he had given her, despite all of her protests.Sofia and Nancy teased her since they knew why she wore a lot covering clothing, and she always frowned at them and urged them to stop."All right Ladies,Go and sit now, we'll take care of the dinner table," Rafeal said, and both men turned to the Elder one, as if they didn't wa
2 days Later….They spent the entire day together, and when night fell, the entire Mansion fell silent as she emerged from the bathroom wearing rob and moist hair.Damien was out for work, so she decided to finish her work and tell Linda to prepare a meal for them.She was combing her hair as Damien entered the room, her gaze fell on him as he carried multiple bags."Where were you?"She questioned and turned around; he looked over her body and took a step towards her.Her heart thumped loudly as he approached her, thinking she had nothing on underneath the rob."I had some work to finish," he explained as he placed a bag on the bed."What's that?"He smiled and wrapped his hands around her waist as she looked at the bag.She drew a deep breath as he undid her robe and grabbed the hem, slid her robe, which dropped to the floor, leaving her bare skin and breathless in front of him.When he saw her in robes he wasn't able to breathe but now seeing her like this he forgot to breathe.He kissed
Next morning to her disappointment she woke up in an empty bed,making a bun of her hair and went to the bathroom to freshen up.After taking a bath and wearing her usual loose hoodie and trousers she went out and saw one maid coming towards her."Linda ,where's everyone?"She asked me to take a glass and fill it with water."Mam ,Sofia mam and Sir are at Sir's parent's House for some days, they have told me to inform you",she informed and Inez nodded.She sat on the chair and drank the water and hesitatingly asked,"have you seen the guest who came here Yesterday?"Linda turned around with puzzled faces, but she quickly realized who she was talking about."Damien Sir is in the Gym," she responded.It was like adding fuel to the fire; she was fuming, he was in the gym, leaving her alone in bed; she expected him to stay until she woke up, but it appears that Workout was more important to him.Instead of heading to the gym, she went straight into her room and shut the door from the inside when
"I don't think I should waste much time," Venezio stated as he pulled out his gun.Inez's eyes dilated at the sight, and her heart hammered rapidly against her chest, as she hadn't expected."I'm starving...I can't eat anything. If There's someone dead in front of me; please let me eat something first," she murmured, trying to calm herself.Venezio looked at her, nodded, and told her he was going to get her food.She was bound to the chair once again but did not object.She had no idea why he was hearing her pleads; what she didn't realize was that he was easy to manipulate and sought family affection after his father's death.Everyone has weaknesses and emotions and affection were his. He thought she was his blood, and he could trust her a little.But he had forgotten one thing in the middle of all of this.His blade, which she had hidden in her hand.Without looking at Damien, she took out the blade and began twisting her hand to cut rope as soon as he left."Inez, don't tak
He kept staring at the floor until he heard her voice, she was up."I-Inez..." he stammered, and their gazes locked; she was already staring at him.His eyes had lost their spirk, and it was unbearable for him to think that Avalyn had to go through all of that because of him, and even got killed in the most horrific manner possible."A-are you okay, baby?" he asked, his voice getting stuck in his throat as he tried to speak.She remained staring at him without blinking, tears welling up in her eyes and dropping, but she didn't say anything."What happened, Inez? Did he do anything to you?" I will take you out of here, I promise, P-please don't cry," he sought to reassure her while forgetting his pain and attempting to loosen the rope from his hands but failed.The more he said, the more tears she shed, until she eventually asked, "Are you okay?"Damien was silent for a moment before saying, "I am fine, tell me if you are hurt somewhere?"She nodded and continued, "I am hurt, but I will n
She was driving down the road, tears streaming down her cheeks, her vision cloudy, when she noticed a car coming up in front of her.She moved the steering wheel, and her car collided with an electric pole, causing the bonnet to be damaged and her forehead to collide with the steering wheel.Blood poured from her forehead, and she heard the sound of breaking glass; glancing up, she saw someone standing outside, attempting to unlock the door.She kept staring at the men, and everything around her went black.When she felt water thrown on her face, her eyes opened wide in shock.She blinked and shook her head in an attempt to clear the water from her eyes and face."Hello Little Sister '',Her ears perked up as she heard a voice, and she looked up, puzzled, to see her body tied with rope on the chair."Where am I?" she wondered, her heart pounding in her chest."Where you belong," he said, smirking.◍◍◍◍Damien was restless after what happened the day before, and he couldn't sleep at nig
It was the wedding day, and everyone was gathered in the church. She was standing behind the bride in a white gown that reached her knees, and she wore little make-up as usual.Her gaze was drawn to the man standing behind the groom; he was staring at her shamelessly, and beneath his gaze, she was irritated for no obvious reason.This was the guy who had told her to stay away from him, and the things she didn't want to remember from the night before were still fresh in her mind.She remembered everything that happened last night, from the conversation near the pool until the bedroom.When the bride and groom kissed after exchanging vows, the church erupted in applause.She also met Damien's parents, and she had to admit that they were wonderful and down to earth.She was at the corner of the hall now, watching a newlywed dance, when she felt someone standing near her and looked up to see who it was.It was Declan."Would you like to have a decent dance, gorgeous?" he said, and she nod
She grieved all night, remembering how he spent his days in Mental Asylum, unaware that he was there again because of her.What can one expect from a Mafia boss? Ethan used his weakness in the wrong way but for the right reason.She wondered how his family had managed to live in that same place with everyone's eyes on them, what a horrible moment they had gone through.When she awoke the next morning, things were not the same as they had been the day before.Rafeal granted her a one-day leave to return to her home because of the snowstorm. He could tell she hadn't slept the night previous because of the heavy bags under her eyes.She walked into her apartment, placed her bag on the couch, removed all of her clothes, and stood in front of the mirror, staring at herself.She turned around, staring at herself, and her gaze was caught on the back side of her shoulder, where he had fixed that tracing device.She tried to touch that region while biting her lips, but her fingers barely made it
