Inside the dark prison cell, Dominick sat facing the greasy dirty walls. His hands were chained in handcuffs, his face was dark and his hair messy. According to the orders from his foster father, he should be treated by a common criminal. The policemen did exactly that by torturing him for a while before locking him up. Dominick was still furious about the whole situation. He wished that he could leave jail any moment and go find Mr. Castillo and kill him. The man always gets away with everything he does to him but not this time, Dominick was going to get his revenge and he'll surely kill the man for underrating him. Dominick stated to him handcuffed wrists in disappointment. How did he allow himself to end up this way? Was what Dante said really true? That a woman will only cause a distraction to him and become his weakness? Hell no! He shouldn't be letting all of that get to him. He shouldn't allow himself to become as heartless as the man. Soon, a policeman banged his fist on the
Dominick was soon on an airplane on his way to Las Vegas. Knowing that it was his only way to leave prison freely. Dominick knew that Dante had plans and he might even die in the process but he had to go anyway. Dominick thought of a way to contact Renee, he knew that he had to tell Renee about his movements and to send him back up. Dominick didn't trust even Mr. Dante. He knew what he was going to pass through and he also knew that it wouldn't be an easy task escaping from Dante if he planned to do that with Leila.When they arrived in Las Vegas, Dominick was escorted by so many bodyguards into a huge villa. No one had to tell him that the villa belonged to Mr. Dante. He walked inside the mansion with numerous guards accompanying him. The huge hallway was filled with the noise of footsteps reverberating in it. Their movements echoed in the place, when they finally got to the front of the huge mahogany double doors, Dominick knew that he was about to face his worst nightmare. The look
Dominick entered the room after the door was opened by two bodyguards who guarded the place from outside. As soon as he entered, the door was closed. Dominick saw some men sitting around a table. Amongst them— was Dante. He was busy smoking his cigarette while he played the game with his business partners. The man was so busy, but when Dominick entered– he noticed. "Alas. He is finally here" he said out cheerfully, pointing towards Dominick's direction. "Come over here boy" he demanded and Dominick went towards the table to meet him. At this juncture, he had to obey all what the man wanted if indeed ,he wanted to get Leila back. Dominick knew that he just had to obey Dante's orders."Sit" the man demanded and he did. Dominick looked around the other three men who were in the room with him. They looked a bit older than Dante. Except the one who was sitting next to him. He was a bit younger and was more like his age range. Dominick greeted them briefly and his eyes went to the game o
A loud gunshot sound was made in the room by Dante for shooting his gun up in the air. The man had to cause a distraction that would make Aurelio not to play. He tried to stand up from his chair and acted drunkenly, he laughed out hysterically and he had hit the chess game on purpose, ruining the ongoing game so that Dominick and Aurelio wouldn't continue. Dominick tried to help him stay still but the man seemed to move a lot."Mr. Castillo, be careful or you'll fall" Mr. Reyes said to him. Dominick stood up quickly to help the man. Only Dominick knew that Dante wasn't drunk. He had just did that in order to ruin the game because Dominick was failing. "Mr. Castillo, are you alright?" One of the men asked— showing his concern. "No.. no.. I feel so much ache in my head" Dante mumbled drunkenly. Dominick was moved by how cunning the man was. His act was so real, no one would believe that he wasn't drink. Dominick soon helped him out of the room. As he tried to take him away, Dante stru
A man's loud groan reverberated in the dark dungeon of Dante's mansion. Dominick has just woken up and he tried to stand up from the cold greasy ground of the dungeon where he was locked in. He twisted his ankle as he tried to stand up. His whole body ached which made it difficult for him to make any movement. Dominick laid on his back, his face looking at the ceiling. Dominick was breathing heavily, he was trying so hard to hang on but it was hard for him. He was beaten badly and didn't get any medical attention. He was also feeling feverish from laying on the cold ground over night. "Ahhh" Dominick cried out again. This time, he struggled hard and he finally stood up. He walked towards the door of the dungeon. It was a huge metal door with only a small part made for him to peel through. That was the only place where light could find its way into the dark dungeon. Dominick began to bang his fish hard on the gate. "Is anyone there?" He called, but there was no response.Dominick Cont
Who… who are you?" Leila asked Dante who kept staring at her. She was beginning to feel uncomfortable from the looks. Dante took his seat on the bed bearing her, Leila shifted away from him. "You don't have to be afraid of me. It's not you that I'm after. But with you, I can get what I want" Dante stated, going straight to the point. He felt like Leila was a smart woman and he didn't have to hide anything from her. Leila seemed sensible from the other women he had encountered. Her eyes had fierceness written all over it and it shows him how defiant of a woman she was. Dante remembered his first encounter with Leila. She probably wouldn't remember that they have met before once at a shopping mall. During the time that she was a stripper, she helped recommend him a drink at a shopping mall which he picked. On that day, he met her shopping and he appeared right there to buy drinks. He didn't take any bodyguards with him. Leila saw him having difficulties making a choice and she suggest
Dante's study was no different from other parts of his mansion. It was dimly lit, luxuriously designed with expensive golden statues and furniture. Just like Dominick, he also had a Jacquard couch sitting in the middle of the huge study room. His love for Jacquard couches made Dominick also love to have couches in his house. He had them at every restaurant ng corner in his house. Dominick sat on one of the wooden facing his working desk which had a laptop sitting on it. Mr. Dante had a classic taste in everything he used and owned. Dominick waited for him patiently. About a few minutes later, Dante walked into the study. On seeing the looks on his face— Dominick could tell that he had a successful business and it fell on his advantage. He knew Dante to be someone who would never lose to anyone so he must've gotten what he wanted. Dominick watched Dante as he took his seat behind the desk and faced him. Dante went on the light himself a cigarette and he began smoking. He opened the dr
LEILAI was standing near the window with my hands resting upon the window pane. I was looking outside at the totally new environment that I was in. Because of the stoic look on my face one would mistake me for someone who wasn't bothered by anyone or anything— but deep down, I was very worried. After meeting Dante Castillo earlier, I wondered what he really wanted with me as the man didn't look ordinary. He spoke to me calmly, but that wasn't all. I could sense how fake he was. The man was pretending earlier. I couldn't believe that he was my father. I needed an explanation from Dominick. It had been a month and two weeks since I was unconscious. So many things had happened which I needed to know about. I wanted to be sure that we were really siblings as he said we were and that Dante is our father. I had so many things that I wanted to ask him. Including Ali who shot me at the auction. So many things that I had to ask Dominick about but there was no way for me to get to him. I was w

~ Months Later ~LEILAJust like the first day I met him, Dominick has been a loving man over these past few months since we got married.Even though everything was taken away from him, I didn't expect him to bounce back quickly. And as he always said, you can't kill a Mafia.We've been married for almost six months and we are focusing on living as a happy family and raising our son. Dominick established a business for himself, he didn't sell or deal with illegal stuff anymore.We wouldn't want him to go to jail again. I also started my professional teaching classes for dancing. The last few months have been filled with several adventures for us.A former stripper and a former Mafia. I think this is just the best. The peaceful life I have so much yearned for.Dominick wouldn't arrive from work until later, and I am busy with getting the uniform for my students prepared.Lolita comes by sometimes to take Gerald to her house, she is living with doctor Liam and they are about to get marri
DOMINICKIt was morning and I had to wake up and join my cellmates to do our jail labors. I picked up my bucket and I headed out with Jack, it was our turn to clean the bathrooms today. "Gosh! What an awful smell…" Jack exclaimed as soon as I kicked the bathroom door open.He should've gotten used to it by now cause I already do. The smell would never change no matter what we do. Even though this bathroom is cleaned up daily, it would still be as if it hasn't been touched for months when we come. I didn't want to think that these people do it on purpose, but what do I say? We are almost ten thousand in this jail and we all get the need to use the bathroom sometime.I stepped into the bathroom, the pungent odor of urine hit directly at my nose and I jerked backwards a bit. Jack noticed and he immediately began to laugh at me.I frowned and turned to him. "What's funny?" I asked, the tone in my voice made him realize that I am being serious. So he stopped laughing at me. "Sorry.." h
~ Two Years Later ~DOMINICKIt's been two years of being in this place but I do not regret it. The only thing I regret is not being there with Leila when she birthed my son, I deeply anticipated watching her give birth to a mini me. I hurt Leila's feelings, I wouldn't have been here if I didn't plead guilty. Despite the evidence they had against me, I could've still won the case because of my lawyer's influence.I do not want to live that life anymore, I wanted to make a change. I've been a sinner for so long. Making Leila and everyone around me hurt.I've killed so many people, I killed Romeo's uncle. He was my friend, I never should've hurt him. I knew how much his uncle meant to him, I never should've done that.I've hurt Leila too, I killed her aunt and so many other people. I had to pay for my crimes. For all the crimes I've committed for all these years.Everyday for over two years, whenever Leila comes to see me with my son, I refuse because I do not want my boy to see me in
LEILAit's been two months since Dominick had been in the hospital, the court hearing has been ongoing even without his presence and I've been representing him on the case.Romeo demanded that it should still go on until Dominick wakes up to serve his sentence.I have just arrived from the court and I am experiencing nausea and dizziness from the pregnancy. It didn't stop me from going to see Dominick at the hospital.I asked Renee to take me to the hospital after I have eaten. We drove there and it only took an hour from the hotel we lodge.Renee and Shen Yi have been so supportive of me since Dominick wasn't around. Being pregnant and going for the court at the same time hasn't been easy for me as I've tried my best to cope.Lolita was barely available, she worked at the nurse at the hospital so she could watch over Dominick while I'm not there. And with doctor Liam as his doctor in charge.Apparently, Dominick helped him get back his license which was seized by his former hospital.
DOMINICKI am standing facing Romeo, my former best friend who had become my enemy. With a time bomb in my hand which might blow off in a few seconds, I was ready to fight him."I'm the one you want, Romeo. I'm here now, you can face me" I stated, relieving my breath.I took a peek at the time bomb, hoping that Romeo would extend the time. I might just use that as an opportunity to fight him and also escape before the extended time elapses.Romeo is glaring at me angrily, like he wanted to devour me.I noticed him bringing out a device and he pressed a button before throwing the device away.. I heard the beep from the bomb. As expected, he extended the time to fight me.Some of his men surrounded us, I knew I was no match for them. With my injured foot and my aching body, Romeo and his men would defeat me but it was still worth the try.Romeo brought out a dagger, while his men grabbed a hold of me. Before I could react, he sent a punch at my face, making me fall on the ground.His me
LEILAThe sound of my cries dominated the room as I noticed that the time on the bomb had reduced a lot, down to ten minutes.In ten minutes time I'll be blown into tiny bits. At this point, I didn't believe that Dominick would come here anymore.I screamed and cried for help, knowing fully well that my voice wouldn't be heard by any. I still wanted to try my luck.Maybe, if Romeo can hear me from the chip, he might take me into consideration.My heart pounded fastly in my chest as I feared that I would die soon. I couldn't hold back the tears anymore and I allow it let loose.I cried hard until I felt like I was losing strength. I couldn't even touch my stomach or speak to my child who wouldn't be born to this world before its demise.I should've left this life the moment I was bought by Dominick. If I had listened to my instincts in the first place, I wouldn't be in this situation. The bomb continued to beep and I didn't yell for help anymore because it's pointless. There's no one
LEILAI didn't know what happened, I felt a sting on my neck. It was as if someone had injected me and I slept for an extra hour. I looked around where I was, it was dark and dusty.My legs were hurting as I noticed that I've been standing for a long time. "Where am I?" I asked myself rhetorically but I didn't expect to get a response."Welcome to your death… Leila Gonzales" I heard Romeo's voice speak. I tried to look around and search for him. I don't think he is inside the place with me.I noticed a chair and a recording chip on top of it. He must be speaking from a distance and using the chip to send the messages to me.I noticed that I was tied to a pole and the slow beeping noise on my chest. I looked down and I saw the time bomb tied to my body.."Help me!" I screamed out in fear, my body trembled like never before."Romeo.. please don't kill me! " I yelled.His laughter sounded and dominated the room, the chip became so loud. "Please.." I cried. I couldn't help as tears began
LEILAI jerked up at the sound of the door opening. Immediately, I realized that it wasn't only one man who entered the room.The aura which filled the room smelled of drugs and smoke. I waited for my nerves to be calm before I spoke. "Who is there?" I asked, I was frightened but I had to mask it with anger."I'm talking to you, cowards!" I yelled out angrily."Leave us" He requested."Ali.."" Romeo" I instantly corrected myself. His name wasn't something I could get used to. "What do you want from me?" I asked him but the room went into a deep silence when he didn't respond to me.My blindfold was still on, but I was sensitive enough to notice that he was sitting on the bed and he was moving his hands near my face. I could feel his movements through the air.I turned my face away to avoid his touch, but it didn't end well for me as he slapped me hard on my face. "Stay still, bitch" he yelled at me.Soon, Romeo pulled down the blindfold from my eyes and I was staring directly at him
