View MoreChapter 6.Bella's Pov.I couldn't escape the persistent feeling of concern that had crept deep inside me as I received the vehicle key from Mat. I walked out of the room, gripping it tightly in my palm, my heart pounding with a mix of worry and optimism.The car was ready for me, its sleek bodywork shimmering in the dim light. It was a stark contrast to the ominous surroundings I had just left. When I arrived and stood next to the vehicle, though, a sense of foreboding washed over me.Mat leaned casually on the car's hood, his wicked grin on his face. His looks did not happen by coincidence. I decided that he was guiding events, and his motivations were obscure. He lured me in with a gesture that was both kind and scary.His grin acted as a cover, concealing the sincerity of his goals. Without saying anything, he strolled around to the driver's side and climbed into the seat. As I saw him sit there so carelessly, my spine tingled. He emanated authority, and I couldn't help but feel l
Chapter 5.Mat's Pov.As I stood there with a sly smile spread across my face, I couldn't help but relish the fear that emanated from her. Bella, trembling before me, seemed to be teetering on the edge of panic, and I must admit, I rather enjoyed it. There's a certain power in instilling fear, in watching someone's composure crumble like a sandcastle against the relentless tide.I leaned in, lowering my voice to a hushed, sinister tone, and asked, "Why so scared, Bella?" My words hung in the air, a tangible threat that seemed to make her shiver even more. But instead of responding, she chose to turn and walk away. Perhaps she thought distance would shield her from the invisible web I was weaving around her, but little did she know that in this game, there was no escape.Behind her, Vito, my ever-loyal companion, flashed a disapproving smile and chimed in, "Mat, you should stop scaring the poor girl." He always had a sense of compassion that I often found tedious. In his eyes, fear was
Chapter 4Bella's pov.The sound of a gunshot reverberates through the room, and despite my terror, I muster all my strength to hide it.Mat stands confidently in the centre of the room, a wicked smile dancing on his lips. "It's not quite the right moment to bring things to a close, Bella. I have plans that require you to stay alive... for now, at least," he announces.My voice oozes with defiance as I respond, "Do whatever you want, but remember this: I won't let myself become a weapon against my father." Mat's eyes sweep over the room, his gaze fixating on his comrades. A mischievous grin forms before he starts moving towards me, stumbling like a drunkard. When he reaches me, he kneels down, pointing his gun."Look around, sweetheart, and grasp the reality of our predicament. You're just a pawn in this game. Don't try to be the fierce tiger; it won't end well for you. There are consequences you're not prepared to face right now. Relax and go with the flow. Now that you understand wh
Chapter 3.Bella's pov.I can't just believe why he kept his intentions from me when he will still have to reveal them. I can boldly recall the smile on his face as he left my room that day and for days now he has not shown up. How can I even notice he has not shown up around this area? Am supposed to be stuck to my escape plan and here I am realizing he is away for some time now.His workers had taken over with getting me my food and providing my other necessities, I can't say I miss him as I am not supposed to but there is this feeling in me that something seems different. As usual since the last time it was time for me to have my walk around the vicinity but this time I have the chance to only go up to the kitchen. Getting there I decided to cook something for myself, since I have less than an hour I decided to do a light dish. I can feel as if someone has his eyes fixated on me, I looked around but no one was there. After the cooking, I sat down at the table and ate then I heard a
Chapter 2.Bella's pov.I woke up only to meet the strange environment pictures in my head, accompanied by this terrible headache and tones of echoes ringing in my head. Using my hands to support my head, I looked around. I tried to sit up on the bed but then I discovered my hands and had been tired up to some limitations. Blinking several times, I tried to remember what had happened, but my mind was blank.I took a deep breath and tried to sit up, but my hands and feet were tied to the bed frame. Panic set in as I struggled to free myself. The door creaked open, and a man walked in, his face obscured by the shadows."Well, well, well, Sleeping Beauty is finally awake," the man said in a smooth, silky voice."Who are you, and why am I here?" I demanded, trying to keep my voice steady.The man chuckled. He knew I had forgotten the entire scene. That was what he wanted because he didn't want to live with the guilt of attacking me. "Now, now, no need to be rude. I'm Mat, and you, my dear

It has always been my aim to be at the top of the class but who cares about that but me alone?I fished out my phone from my bag and decided to call an Uber but then I halted midway; this could be the perfect time to have the feeling of freedom under the blue moon that illuminated the street reminding me that once it still shines it will always be my companion. Regardless of that, it will only take me a few minutes before I get home, why call for an Uber within a couple of minutes just a few differences in the time?I looked around the area and realized that the space seems empty and quiet; my perfect preference for atmosphere: peaceful and quiet.
