Chapter 4
Ashley could have sworn that she never thought she could do what she did.She had slapped him and he had that expression that said; I'll kill you today.She was not afriad of herself but that of her mother also.He was a bastard.A cursed devil that would do everything in his power to make sure her face winced with pain and hurting her mother would do him good.She watched him clenched his fist and sighed.He took a step front and she took one back.She saw the men staring at her as if she'd grown another head.His name was Mikhail Mazza, he didn't hit women doesn't mean he didn't order for their death.With everything he had done to her, she could label him a murderer and much more, after all, he was the Country's Kingpin.She didn't know much about the Mafias but hell she had seen things with her eyes.She knew how the local Mafia operated.The deaths, the fear, the dread, the ins and out.He grabbed her hand and dragged her to himself before turning to the stairs and he continued with the dragging.She was not bothered about his hand but the fact that he could strangle her to death and her poor mother would be the one to suffer it or he would send the thugs to go get some broken bones done to her mother's already broken self.He wasn't after all, a human. So he was well capable of doing those.They got to his office and he pushed her in and got in as well.She sighed and chuckled."So what now?" She had tried to act strong.Her eyes bored his and he chuckled."You see, you think there's a chance out of this but there's not. You either give in to me or you die, there's no need to act strong and all Ash." He said, his hand going to her neck but he didn't press.He held her there, showing her that she had no control.He was the one In control and he could do whatever he dim fit with her."Don't touch my mother." She mumbled.She had planned it well but it failed.It was supposed to be a no emotion thing and a blank face but no..She had that crying helpless face she hated the most.She had seen women in the town, scared like shit. Unable to leave and walk around the town due to the fact that they were scared.Scared that someone would molest and hit them when ever they wanted.She hated the fact that she had to listen and watch those shits.She was not that strong but she had learned a lot of Taekwondo and she was not going to back down if a man initiated a fight."You seem like someone who is ready to blow my heads out, which got me wondering why?" He smiled and she frowned.Was he kidding her?He was the asshole, the wizzard, the monster and the curse on her part and hell she'd never want anything to do with him.She was regretting the fact that she had gone to him for help! How could she?"Your mother.."He began and she turned to him, curiosity filled her up and she frowned."What about her?" She asked, glaring at him and he smirkedWhen it came to her mother she was willing to do it all but not to succumb to his wishes."Your mother Ashley was transferred to the Ashwood Grey's Hospital this evening, her surgery will be done once your sign the contract." He said, and her eyes widened.He tighten his hand on her neck and released again."What?" She blinked, with dropped jaw.Ashwood Grey was the best in the country.It was the best where you go sick and come out healthy.Many said they performed miracles there and there was a monk who healed people.She didn't care about that.What she cared was the fact that her mother had been transferred there and would be given treatment once she sighed the goddamn contract.How the hell did she gets transferred without her knowing.Her phone buzzed and she made to bring out the pocketed phone but he stopped her."You see you can..."Let me pick the.."Shut up!" He didn't yell, wasn't angered when he said it.It was just two simple words and he did say it and she looked up at him as if he could kill."Shut up." He said it, as if to confirm to her he did say it.She kept silent, watching him with her hawk eyes.If he made any slightest way with her, she would hit him and hell she would not care about death."You see, just a flick of my finger Cara Mia and your mother would not even be back to the hospital, she would be home on the bed with you tending to her already broken self." She made to struggle but he held her in place.The grip was not strong, not strangling her but she was glaring at him."It's your call Cara Mia, you know like before I can make you cry your eyes out while watching you trying to act strong and fight me.. knowing fully well that you would not win. Don't resist the inevitable." He said and she hipcupped.She was crying.He let of go of her neck and she sniffed."I hate you. I really detest you so much Mikhail." She said, and he nodded."Trust me baby, it's mutual." He said.She was the second person calling him his name. He let her.There was no stopping her, she seemed like a mad woman."Think about this Cara Mia, before you send all your love ones to the grave early.. I'll be waiting for you." He whispered the last part as he grabbed her hand and took her out of the office."Go cry at home!"TBCChapter 5Her eyes were blurry as she sat on the back seat of the long bus.She held her backpack close to her chest, and wiped the tears.Mikhail Mazza was a monster.She hated him, she hated everything about him.She sniffed and stepped down from the bus as It got to her bus stop.The road was lonely unlike before.She walked slowly till she got home.The apartment was no place to be called home.She hated it. Hated the stench.Everything about the room pissed her off.She walked to the only chair that was in the room and sat down.She wanted out. She wanted out of the poverty she was in.She had seen men and women thrive hard to become a success and she loved that.She had tried too, but it didn't work out for her, never did and now she was stuck with that monster who would derive pleasure in seeing her rot to death, not that she cared less.The door knob turned and Sandra walked in."Hey." She smiled and the other girl sighed."Amy says she can't loan at the moment, got some thing
Chapter 6The morning sun was shining more brightly than ever, as Ashley rinsed the dress she had washed.Her hands looked pale and white and her fingers were aching due to the number of clothes she had washed.After the building washing machine broke down, clothes were heaped and she hated the fact that her clothes were the worst of them all.She'd walk both day and night and time was not on her side, it had never been.Sandra walked out to the backyard of their apartment.Thankfully, they had taken the Lower part of the building and so they had a large space in the backyard for cleaning and washing."Today," Sandra said and sighed."Hmm, today," Ashley answered, knowing full well what she was talking about.Heaving a deep breath, Ashley cracked her hands and began hanging the clothes on the rope.It was for her mother! Only for her mother!The woman had gone through a lot and doing this would be the best way to repay her.There was no way, she'd let her mother go like that! No way a
Chapter 7"When you do this there's no turning back." He said and she nodded.Ashley knew what she was getting herself into.She knew they task ahead and his words would not shake her again.Few days ago she would die than sign the papers but here she was ready to fill the paper and get it done with."Just so you know Ash, I should tell you what I would do to you if you sign his papers." He said, and she kept quiet.Ashley knew he what he was up to.There was no way he'd give her such a contract without a reason."Can I ask a question?" She asked, staring at him.He loved her confidence, her braveness.Was it braveness or foolishness?He would soon break down the boldness she has and leave her calling to him for help."You just did." He said and she rolled her eyes."Stop doing that." He cautioned and she did it again."Why a child? Why do you need a child and why do I have to be the one to birth it?" She asked, and he snorted."Well well well, look who thinks she's special." He chuck
Chapter 8Ashley got down from the car.She felt sick to her stomach as she looked at the door."You're not going to fly in Ash, you'll have to walk," Mikhail said, and he hissed.She didn't like the guy, not even one bit.She wanted nothing more but to hit his head with a machete till he would die screaming.She would keep to herself till they were married.She fúçking hated him!"It's a fucking mutual feeling." He said, smiling at her but she said nothing.Ashley Crook was determined to make him pay.Pay for the days he'd bullied her at high school.Pay for the day, he'd make her feel like shit, as he fucked some girl in the girl's bathroom, with the door open.He'd pay for the days, she left the school crying in the rain.He'd surely pay for all that, sooner or later."You look like an ugly pumpkin, try to smile and look better no one would judge." He said and she didn't say a word.Recalling those things was making her eyes well.She was not supposed to cry for someone like him.H
Chapter 9I'm so sorry guys, for the last repeated chapters. Network is fluctuating badly.•••Ashley got down from the car.., sniffed, rubbing her nose.She watched as he stepped down as well, throwing the key at the man that walked closer to them.His mansion was extraordinary like she had thought it would be.Would she stay here with him? Or would he find her a quiet place to stay when she gets pregnant? At least that was what the dramas and novels acted."How many times do I have to invite you in Ash or is it that you love me calling your name so much." He said and she scoffed."What I'm I doing here? I just signed it Mikhail..the least you could do is wait for a day or maybe for me to visit my family and pay them a farewell visit." She said and he huffed."There's no need for that Ash, you and I know that there's no reason..no fucking reason for that. Your mother and your sister are better off without you." He said.She frowned."There's no need to blame you, you don't even know
Chapter 10He made to move and she turned around, moving to the path that lead to the small patio at the other end of the first floor.He frowned, moving forward till there was no place for her to run to.Ashley should have known that he was a monster and if he'd want something, he was bound to get it.He was God, and she'd come to respect that.He hated when she challenged him and loved it as well.It always gave him the power to fight and still, he'd win.There was nothing called power-pull when it came to Ashley.He loved the fight she offered him, cause no other person did.Men would always cower and there was nobody to challenge him but with the woman that he was staring at, she was always ready to fight him knowing fully well he'd win and she would be rendered helpless.Clicking his tongue, he raised his fingers to touch her hair as he trapped her on the wall."Ash....you always intrigue me." He murmured."It's Ashley for you." She gritted her teeth, tears welling up in her eyes
Chapter 11"Isn't this what you wanted?" Ashley asked, standing before him.His eyes flickered and he smiled."You're getting bold Ashley." He mumbled, his eyes not leaving her upper body."If you're talking, you might wanna look at my face and it's right here not there." She said, pointing towards her breast and he nodded.He stood up and walked towards her.Ashley was already giving out evenly breath.What if he decided to bend her over and had his way with her.She was a virgin and she had lied to him.She had heard about first time and she had never heard anything good about it."You look scared Ash but somehow that little mouth just don't want to stop talking." He said."Tell me Ash, what do you want me to do? Bend you over this chair and fuck the senses out of you or push you to that bed and make sure you'll surely coming be for more?"Ashley didn't want to admit it to herself as well.His gaze was captivating and she hated the fact that she was picturing what he was saying."Wh
Chapter 12 Ashley sighed, the room was indeed large and she liked it.She shouldn't be liking anything about him but the room didn't bully her, did it?Swallowing, she walked into the bathroom and opened the door.Oh wow, just like she had expected..the bathroom was perfect.A bright Jacuzzi tub, a shower, and a breathtaking view from the small window she could see if she lay on the tub.She liked it.She quickly walked to the door and shut it lock three times before grabbing the knob and pushing.When she was sure that the door would never bulge..she smiled and walked to the bathroom again, taking every piece of clothing from her body.She got into the soapy tub and sighed.Damn, it was nice!She smiled, raising her hand and opening the window to view the world from where she lay.This was one of the things she wanted her mother to enjoy and she would.The weather was already getting colder indicating that she would get out of the tub and she did.Press the button for the water to
Five years later."Momita... See she is not doing as I say." Ashley sighed as her first child kept sulking that his little sister that was just a year old was not doing as he said."She is still a child Alexander. She can not do as you say." She said, touching his cheek and he sighed."But I'm a child and I always do what mummy and daddy says. Even Zoey does whatever I tell her to do." He mumbled, staring at his little sister that her a sucker in her mouth.She looked extremely cute with her blue eyes and black hair."Aren't you mummy's boy?" She asked and he nodded."Now that's why you always do as I say. Cause you're mummy's boy." She said to have him smile.Poom. Poom. "Daddy's back." Come Roselle. Let's go greet Daddy." Ashley smiled as she watched her first kid named Alexander Mikhail Mazza try to push his sister's crib to move.He was just five and was acting so matured.Five years of peace and love.She had never felt alive.A year ago she had given birth to another beautiful
Chapter 85Final Chapter....A week later.The beach was filled with laughter coming from every corner.Ashley picked up the banana chips she had made and ate a little of it.It was already a week and her mother was out of the hospital room.Although she was still using a wheelchair, she was perfectly fine.She was pregnant and she was going to have Mikhail's child.Her husband was the happiest person on the mat, as he picked up the apples and cut it into little shapes for her to eat.After she had told him about her pregnancy, he had gone crazy about it and ever since that day..she never did anything again.She never cooked, never bath alone..He would bath her and tuck her to bed.He would cook and feed her.He had learnt how to cook and he could make her favorite spaghetti roll.Sitting on the mat with her family was such a bliss to Ashley and she wished it never end."Can you stop staring at me and eat Baby?" Mason asked, as he pinched Sandra's cheek."I just thought that maybe you
Chapter 85 When everyone had already gone home. Mason had escorted Sandra home to go make some porridge for her mother and Mikhail had gone to do business has he had been called for a contract meeting. Ashley sat beside her mother on the bed. She held her mother's soft hand and rubbed on it softly. "Do you love him?" Her mother suddenly asked. "Ehhhnn?" "Don't act dumb Ashley, I know you know what I mean and who I'm talking about. Do you love him?' Her mother asked again. Ashley bit her lips as she lowered bed gaze to the floor and nodded. "I heard you that day when you were talking about signing a paper. A contract marriage." Her mother said, making her eyes go round and she looked up and blinked at the woman. "I was so weak to say a thing, I couldn't even open my eyes. I wanted to beg you to not do it. I was going to beg you till there was no power left in me but then I tried to open my eyes, I tried so hard to talk but couldn't." Her mother said, and sniffed. "I was so he
Chapter 84"Hi Susan." Sandra stood outside the hospital as she failed her friends number.Earlier she had switched off her phone because of Mason and when she had turned it on, she had seen numerous missed calls."What are you doing? And why are you yelling my name?" "Why are you whispering?" "The same reason you just whispered." "Are you okay?""Fabio and I got together and we...""Fucked?" Sandra cut her friend off."No, you spoiled brat. We just kissed and that was it. I know you and Mason has already done the deed but I just want to inform you that a child out of marriage is called wedlock." Susan said."Ha! Look at you. Acting like a saint but you're the main reason children of today's world have no father. You're not a virgin yourself.""Yeah, I know that but then it was Fabio who took my virginity in the first place. why should I shy?""You know we're both talking trash right? You know that there's literally nothing useful and beneficiary to anything we've said and about to
Chapter 83They all stood outside the hospital room.Ashley had her hand intertwined with Mikhail as she waited for the doctor to give them the permission to go see their mother.She had woken up after the pills and injection they had given her to sleep for over a month to regain her strength and mental health back."Are you okay?" She heard Mason asked and she turned to see her sister smile.where they a thing? How come Sandra never told her about that?"Are you okay Babe?" She turned to Mikhail and gave him a huge smile."I'm okay, I'm just worried about mother and how she's doing." She said and he nodded."Don't worry again babe. She's fine and she's doing great. We'll go in there and were going to see how good she is." He said and she nodded smiling.Raising their intertwined hands, she kissed him and he chuckled."Mr and Mrs Mazza and Miss Sandra. She's awake and she's ready to receive guests now." The doctor said as he came out and smiled at them."We can go now?" Ashley asked an
Chapter 82"Hmm, such a naughty girl." He mumbled and she nodded.She wiggled her hips and he groaned, grabbing her hands and flipping them in a way she was now on the bed and he was on top of her."Let me do it!" She glared and he smiled."I've got some new ideas. Why don't we do this instead." He said and smirked, pulling away from her to take off his shirt in one go.The bed creaked and so did her moans as they delved deeper in to the world of pleasure.•••••"What do you think of me Mr Mason?" Sandra scoffed as she got down the car.She stretched her hands as the cool breeze settled on her fingers and the breeze caressed her skin.Earlier the day Mason had told her that he would bring her to the beach.She looked back at him and he smiled."You do have an appetite Miss Crook." He said, looking down at the snacks they had brought.She had finished a whole roll of Peanut butter and the creamy chin chin he had bought."Now that you've learned about that. Do you still think you can tak
Chapter 81Ashley rolled on the bed and sighed when her arm touched another's on the bed.She sighed and sat up.Turning to see the man on the other side of the bed, she rolled her eyes as she stared at him.He was so fucking cute while asleep and when he was awake, he'd become a jerk.She lifted her finger and traced his lips as she watched him sleep."Such a cute jerk.' She whispered."Jerk." She mumbled again and was about to pull away when he grabbed her finger and opened his eyes so suddenly."Your only jerk." He whispered and she blinked."You were awake.'"How are you doing?" He asked she was about to get up when he grabbed her arm and pulled her to the bed and hovered over her."Don't avoid me again Mrs. Mazza, it's so disturbing and so painful. You haven't said a thing to me, baby." He cooed and she shook her head."Robbie didn't do anything.""Not this again." He said, getting up from the bed as he sat down."I'm going to keep talking about it? Where the hell is he? I'm so sa
Chapter 80 He looked up, his eyes shining brightly as he watched her stood up. She was wearing a long rope that covered her whole body. She took the rope off and he was greeted with a short strapless gown. She was beautiful. No beautiful was an understatement. "Are you always this cute?" He asked, and she scoffed. "I make sure to please all my men." "So you hang out with all your men to make their ex's jealous?" He asked with a raised brow and she laughed. "Although it's not always." "Are you virgin?" "I've never seen a Lance Corporal be this crude with words? How dare you ask me if I'm a virgin." "I see... you're not." He answered and she smiled. "Virgins are not needed here, if you are...you end up dying and it's not anyone's wish for someone to die." She said and he nodded. "Somethings are better left untold." "Perfectly said." She munmbled, and raised her glass up. "Cheers?" "Yeah... Cheers." He said. That night had been the best night of his life. Although it d
Chapter 79"So what do we do now?" Susan asked as she picked up the small vase and headed for the watering can.She had intended to cut the mark off.Fabio was here with her now and there was no use for another man taking her down the aisle for the fashion show."Are you really going to keep doing that?""I have to look my best Fabio, I should be in America right now but because of you..I decided not to, you should be really pleased." She said and he nodded with a smile.If smiling was a human, it'd definitely be him.He had been smiling the whole time he had picked her up from the airport.In as much as he watched her walking around the room and placing things as if it were her own house, he wanted nothing more but to pin her down his bed and make her scream his name.He was still wondering how he could survive those years and months without her.She was a fucking addiction and right now, even though her father would try to get in the way. He would never stop till she became his.Susa
