“Why would you help me escape? You'd get in trouble.” “I hate the way Yoshim treats you, you're a good girl and you don't deserve it.”
I broke down into tears when he said that. I immediately wiped my tears and looked at him. “What is your name?” “Kay.” “What's the plan?” I asked while staring deeply into his eyes. I was back in Yoshim's club. I was a waitress but he sometimes let people have fun with me. I kept on praying in my head hoping Kay's plan would work. I went to the tables and served them their drinks. I noticed there was a guy who was looking intently at me. He was sitting with one guy who seemed busy on his phone. I ignored it cause it wasn't the first time someone was staring at me. I looked at Kay and I didn't see any signal, I guess I have to wait. I heard someone snap their fingers so I walked to attend to the person. It was the guy that was staring at me earlier. His friend was the one who called me. “What would you like to drink?” “Tequila for me and margarita for him.” He said and went back to staring at his phone. The guy that was staring at me earlier didn't say anything, he was just looking at me. I became uncomfortable. I walked away from their table and gave their order to Tee, the bartender. “New weirdos?” He asked with a raised brow. “I think so, they scare me.” “They're not scarier than Yoshim.” He said sarcastically. I ignored him and looked back at him to find him still staring. The way he stared at me made a chill run down my spine. “Order done,” Tee said while placing the drinks in front of me. I placed them on my tray and walked to their table. I served them and was about to leave when I heard his manly voice. “Thank you.” His voice did something to me but I don't know what. I was able to see him better because the disco light started to reflect on his face. This guy was strikingly handsome. He had blue-piercing eyes full lips and a sharp jawline. His shoulders were broad and I could see his huge biceps begging to be let out in his t-shirt. I smiled faintly and walked away, I looked at Kay and he winked. Finally, it's time. Kay paid two guys to start a fight for the club to be chaotic, and then we could use that chance to escape. Rodrigo Pov. This was the first time we were visiting a club like this. I hated the environment. I was looking around when my eyes fell on a gorgeous black-haired girl. She had tied her hair in a bun with loose strands falling on her face. She wore a mini skirt with black boots. I couldn't stop staring at how beautiful she looked even from afar. Her eyes locked with mine and she looked uncomfortable but I couldn't avert my gaze. “Who is she?” I asked Fabio. “Who?” “The girl in the skirt.” “I don't know man, it's also my first time here jeez.” He said and resumed staring at his screen. I looked at her and saw her exchanging looks with one of the guards. I don't know why but it annoyed me. “I want her,” I said with a serious expression. “What do you mean? You want me to kidnap her for you.” He asked sarcastically. “Yes,” I said without hesitation. He shook his head sideways and snapped his fingers. The girl quickly came to our table. My eyes widened when she came closer and I saw her soft features. She had big brown doe eyes with a cute upturned nose with Freckles on them. Her lips were rosy pink and her body was just perfect. Just my type. She left with our order and started to talk to the bartender. “Hillary Monroe, 22 years old. Her dad is in jail for beating her mum to death. Gail is the name of her little sister.” “How did you find that so fast?” “It's like you don't know me Rodrigo.” He whined. “I knew I could count on you.” “Looks like she's had a rough life, she's been in and out of hospitals countless times,” Fabio said sadly. I felt a pang of pain in my chest. I don't know why but I wish I could wipe all the bad memories from her head. She appeared with our order and placed them down gently. “Thank you.” I suddenly blurted out. She looked at me and smiled faintly, I don't know why but it warmed my heart. “Rodrigo, one of my warehouses had been ransacked by some people and most of our supplies had gone missing.” “WHAT?” I roared. Just then, I heard a glass shatter and two huge guys started to fight. This is bad. Gunshots could be heard and the place became chaotic. I glanced around trying to find Hillary but I didn't. “Rodrigo this way,” Fabio spoke while directing me somewhere. But I didn't want to leave, I wanted to take Hillary along. That's when I saw her leaving with the guard she was exchanging looks with earlier. “Fabio, I'm gonna follow them, get the car ready,” I said and left hurriedly. Hillary pov I kept on running with Kay as we manoeuvred our way through the messy crowd. Kay pulled me through and we finally got out of the club. We couldn't take the main entrance because Yoshim's men were there. We were running through the dark alley, panting and gasping for air. Relief washed over me when I realised that I finally left that hell hole. We kept on running when I heard a gunshot. I immediately halted and felt a warm liquid trickling down my arm. I looked around and saw no wound, I glanced at Kay and my eyes widened. I immediately brought my hand to my mouth trying to suppress the scream that wanted to come out. Kay held his arm as he bled profusely, he groaned in pain and fell to his knees. “Oh my God, Kay are you alright? Ugh, what am I going to do.” I said while hyperventilating. I heard footsteps and looked up only to be met by those same devilish eyes. He wore a grin on his face. And to his left was Gail who clung to him like a barnacle. How did he even know I escaped? “Haha, I overheard your little conversation with the guard, so I told Yoshim.” She smiled while talking. “Gail, what the fuck is wrong with you?” I said with anger and tears in my eyes. She shrugged her shoulders and her mouth curved into a smile. I pressed my hand on Kay's wound to stop the bleeding, he groaned in pain and I couldn't stop my tears. “I should've gotten rid of you a long time ago,” Yoshim said while pointing a gun at my head. I closed my eyes and waited for him to pull the trigger.I heard a gunshot and still kept my eyes closed. Death is not that painful I guess, cause I wasn't feeling a thing. “Oh my God, Yoshim you're bleeding!” I heard Gail yell.My eyes shot open and I saw Yoshim's arm bleeding. I looked behind me and saw a lot of huge men running towards us.Even if Yoshim doesn't kill me, I'm sure I'll get a heart attack from all of these. “Sir, we're outnumbered, we have to leave.” One of the guys spoke. They quickly carried Kay and tried to pull me but there was another gunshot. The guys let go of me and ran off. I sat on the floor covered my ears with my hand and shuddered in fear. The footsteps kept on getting nearer and nearer. I didn't want to run with Yoshim's men, he just tried to kill me.I would rather be killed by strangers than be killed by the people I love. Manly hands grabbed me and I screamed on aat top of my lungs.I wiggled and squirmed trying to escape from their grips. They got near a black van and pushed me inside. “Who are you peo
“What will you benefit from this marriage?” his eyes narrowed when I said this. “You'll soon find out.” “How are you going to get revenge?” “Patience Freckles, patience.” “What is your name?” He walked closer to me and stood just a few inches away from me. I could inhale his strong cologne “Rodrigo Sango Mrs Sango.” He smirked after saying that.His name sounded familiar but I didn't know where I had heard it. He held my shoulders and pulled me closer to him.My head went blank when I came so close to him. I could feel my cheeks redden. “You need new clothes, what's your size?” He said while observing my body.I just kept on blinking while looking at him. “Snap out of it Freckles, you look like a tomato.” I immediately looked away embarrassed and covered my face with my palm. He chuckled softly. “I'll have them deliver clothes to you soon.” He took my hand and kissed it 3 times before he left.I let out a laugh of disbelief. Can my life get any worse now?The wedding was quick and
He pulled away and caressed my cheek as he stared at me. The crowd looked at us while murmuring.“Resume what you were doing, I'm done with my announcement.” Everyone turned their gazes away from us.How is he controlling almost everyone here? Yoshim can not even do this. At first, I thought Rodrigo was in a gang, but after living with him these few days, I realised he was much different from Yoshim.His voice was authoritative and intimidating. My gaze shifted to the furious Paloma, who was still looking at us.“I know this is fake, you can't marry this slut.” “Shut up Paloma, know your place. Get the fuck off my face before I let my men drag you away.” He said angrily. “You'll regret this.” Paloma walked away.I kept on blinking while looking at Rodrigo, I was so not used to this side of him. “Hey cousin, your wife is beautiful.” A tall-haired guy approached us.“Hello, mamacita…” Rodrigo held the arm he wanted to shake me with. “Keep your hands to yourself or I'll cut them off.” Ro
I rushed outside when I realised that Hillary wasn't in the room. I felt uneasy while I searched for her in the huge building but couldn't find her.Beads of sweat started to form on my forehead.That is when I remembered that there was a garden here. I ran towards the garden and when I got there, I heard her scream like never before. I walked closer and saw Angelo on top of her. I don't know why Angelo always wants my women, this was the same thing he did with Paloma. He seduced her and got her to sleep with him. My blood boiled when I heard how he laughed when Hillary yelled.I went closer to where they were and yanked him off her. He looked at me with a smile on his face, and I wanted to peel that smile off his face. I couldn't control myself and landed heavy blows on his face. I broke his nose, and he looked at me in disbelief. I rolled my sleeves up and landed him more blows when he fell.I got on top of him, about to land him more blows, when I heard Hillary scream that I sh
Rodrigo was getting ready for a meeting with Fabio. It was a family meeting where they weighed which group was performing better. This family meeting was crucial because it determined who would get more power.“Are you going to tell her?” Fabio broke the awkward silence. “Tell her what?”“The real reason you're marrying her.” Rodrigo sighed while buttoning his shirt. “Is it necessary? She'll eventually find out”“Do you think she'll stay after she finds out?” “I can't tell her right now, I might lose her.”I heard a knock on the door. “Come in.” Greta, the housekeeper, entered. “Sir, I've been knocking nonstop on Mrs Hillary's door, but she's not opening.”Rodrigo walked out of the room and made his way towards Hillary's room. He knocked twice. He stood there for some time and knocked the third time.He tried opening the door, but it was locked. He knocked again, and there was still no response. He got impatient and scared. He immediately called the housekeeper to bring him the spare
“Fuck, I forgot about the meeting.” I immediately grabbed my phone and called Fabio. “There's a problem boss. Did you shoot Angelo?”“Yes, and?” “Well, I didn't know you shot him, and you didn't tell me. We've lost the KL warehouse to him as compensation.”“What? He fucking touched my wife.” “Well, you weren't here to clarify that, so they thought you guys got into an argument and you shot him. He also said you attacked him.”“Is the meeting over?” “Almost.” “Tell them I'm on my way.” There's no fucking way I'm losing a warehouse to that scumbag. I hurriedly dressed up, got into my car and drove off.I arrived at my parent's. I walked in, ignoring all the judgemental stares. I finally got inside the meeting room, and immediately I entered, everyone turned to look at me.The place became dead silent as I walked to my seat. I looked at my father and bowed my head to him. “You can't give Angelo my warehouse he doesn't deserve it., I said with a clenched jaw.“Rodrigo, have some respect
Hillary pov I decided to take a stroll around the house since I was so bored. I stumbled upon Rodrigo's office, and it was unlocked. Maybe he was in a hurry and left it open. I wanted to pass by, but something was just pushing me to enter and explore, and of course, I listened to that something. The interior was boring, it was grey and dull. There was a huge table and there were some files on it.I went closer to the table and ran my hand on the files. I sat in his chair and noticed there were drawers. I tried opening it, but they were locked. I scanned the files and fished out one. I started to read the contents, and my eyes widened. “What the fuck?” My hands started to tremble as I continued to read. Just then, Rodrigo's door flung open and I was met with his eyes.He looked at my trembling figure and later looked at what was causing that. He immediately walked towards me and snatched the file.“What are you doing in my office?” He roared. “W…what is…”“I said what the hell are
Rodrigo Pov I walked to her and looked at her intently. I was just a few inches away from her. I brought my hand and caressed her face.I started to trail my fingers from her face to her neck. She shivered when I did that. “What are you doing? Don't touch me.” She said in almost a whisper. I knew she was still mad at me for yelling at her yesterday. I suddenly pulled her closer to me, and she gasped at the sudden contact. Her face turned red, and she looked everywhere but into my eyes. I held her thighs and carried her in a way that she'd straddle me. I walked to the bed and sat down with her on top of me.I brushed the strands of wet hair on her face and brought my lips to her neck. She made a soft moan and gripped my shirt.I kissed and nibbled on her neck, and she struggled to keep in her moans. She gently pushed me away, but I went in again. I pulled her robe up to get access to her thighs and started to caress it gently. She shuddered in pleasure.I flipped her, and she was
