Lorenzo’s POV.I clenched the gun in my hand and pulled its trigger. I watched as it dived through the thin air before sinking deep into the middle of the target at the far end of the shooting range. I didn’t understand why, but seeing Honey walking around half naked and without a care in the world that others were watching her made me so furious. She was mine! And the sooner she knew that, the easier it would be for her!I needed to do something to release my anger. And this was the reason I had gone to my indoor shooting range and was endlessly shooting at the innocent targets. I balanced the gun in my hands as I aimed for the center of the head of the shooting target before shooting at it again. The sound of the gunshot echoed around every corner of the room. I knew I had to get out of that house before I lost my cool. I wasn’t known to be a patient man and Honey was pushing me to the edge. If she kept acting like that and disobeying my commands, I might have ended up putting a b
Lorenzo’s POV Carlo frowned before giving Mateo a weird look. “Hell no! Why will I do that?” He asked. “What I’m trying to say is that I’m planning on going out with her.”Mateo blinked. “Are you trying to say you want that stripper to be your girlfriend?”“Yes.”I stopped shooting and walked up to them. I cleaned my face with a handkerchief before slumping down on the chair close to Carlo. Mateo didn’t pay attention to my presence as he was still looking shocked at what Carlo had told him. To be honest, I was also shocked. Carlo was a smooth heartbreaker who had never dated a woman before. He believed in having sex with them once before dumping them and now, out of nowhere, he was ready to date a stripper who he had just met the previous night. That was crazy to think about.“Are you fucking serous?” Mateo exclaimed, looking at Carlo. “Like, I mean, Carlo all my life I have known you as a playboy and now you met a chick last night and you are thinking of stepping it up?” He purses
Honey’s POV. Lorenzo hadn’t returned since he left in the morning. I had been taken back to my room and this time, Madam Q ensured the door was locked so I was basically restricted from going anywhere. It was a good thing I wasn’t bound with any of those ridiculous ropes. It gave me a chance to observe the room I had been locked in. Throughout the day, I had searched every nook and cranny of the room for any clues on how I could escape from this hell of a place, but Lorenzo was smart. He hadn’t left anything to aid my escape plan. It would have been easier if I could get my hands on a phone. I would have been able to reveal my location to the police so that they could come to my rescue. When I hadn’t found anything of good use, I had remained in my bed, deriving satisfaction from making up different scenarios in my head on how I would get back at Lorenzo for locking me up here. I was thinking about poisoning his drink when the knob in the door turned and the door opened. Heavy foo
Honey’s POVI was quiet throughout the flight to Sicily. He had ensured I was tied to a seat and wasn’t even allowed to ease myself. Throughout the flight, I kept thinking about the deadly glint in his eyes when he had shot that man. How little he had cared about taking away one’s life. And right now, he had my life in his palm. Gosh, I closed my eyes. I didn’t even want to think about whatever he had planned out for me in Sicily. I just wanted to go back home to my parents. I wanted to forget ever meeting him or knowing him.We landed in Sicily in the middle of the night. There were fancy cars waiting for us the moment we got down from the private jet. The masked man came to where I was tied to a seat and I glared at him as he untied me. The moment the private jet landed, Lorenzo and his men had stood up and gotten down. So it was basically only me and this masked man left along with the stewards and pilots.“You need to get down.”I shook my head and shoved myself into the seat,
I was shown the room I would be staying in and the moment the lady left me alone, I rushed to the door and yanked it open. My heart dropped to the pit of my stomach when I saw that it was locked. I bit my lip, thinking of how I could escape. Maybe I could try to find a way to ask that kind lady for help. She could help me alert the police about my whereabouts so that they could rescue me. I was still deep in thought when the door opened and Lorenzo came inside. He seemed a little drunk as he walked up to me. His eyes narrowed as he observed me sitting on the bed before saying the word I was starting to hate. “Strip,” he commanded. It was unwise to disobey him or provoke him when my life was at his disposal so I did what he asked and untied my robe, letting it slip from my body. My whole body still aches from how he had roughly had his way with me the previous night. I wasn’t sure I could handle the pain of him fucking me tonight. “Lorenzo, please I’m tired,” I started. “Can we do
Honey’s POV.I sat at the back of the car, watching through the window as the world blurred away around me. Carlo was sitting at the front seat with his girlfriend and was blasting a loud music which his girlfriend was singing along to while smiling with him. They looked like a perfect peaceful couple, contradicting whatever the hell was happening between me and Lorenzo. Lorenzo wanted me to follow him to an event and had told Carlo to take me to a boutique to get a dress adequate for the night event. I sighed, resting my head on the back seat. I have no idea what this event was going to be about. I was starting to realize how dark and heartless Lorenzo could be, if anything was going to happen to me in this event, he wouldn’t even have a care in the world. Watching how jovial Carlo’s girlfriend was with him caused a twinge in my heart. When I first met Lorenzo, I had had a daydream of a moment like this. Us alone in a car, singing and laughing to ourselves. I shook my head, brush
I was expecting Avery to be shocked, even scared, but she looked unbothered. The next thing she said was like the last hammer to my doom.“I know.”I blinked, not quite believing my ears. “You do?” I asked. “Then, why are you still here with him?”There had to be a reason why Avery could have chosen to stay with Carlo despite knowing how dangerous he could be. Avery shrugged. “I have my reasons,” she said, looking back at the closed door of the dressing room like she was bothered about wasting time with me. “I just need you to know this, you need to stay strong. If there is any way I can help you, just let me know.”I nodded. She wasn’t going to explain herself to me and I didn’t even need to know anything. I just needed her help. “I need you to call the police,” I said quickly. “Tell them about my location.”She looked at me in an odd manner and my body stiffened when she laughed. “Honey, the police can’t help you,” she pointed out as if stating the obvious. “They work for Lorenz
Lorenzo’s POV I ran my hand through my hair as I paced around the dressing room, trying to suppress my anger. I stopped walking and looked back at Carlo. “You really need to put an end to whatever you have with that stripper,” I warned, waving my hand upward at him. “It is Messing you up.”Carlo sighed. “I think you are the one who needs to take a break,” he said. “Your pet is going to hate you if you keep hurting her. Do you really think she would steal that phone if she wasn’t scared of being around you?”I tightened my hands and snarled at Carlo. I didn’t know what sort of affection he had towards Avery which messed up his head. Love was like a slow poison and I wouldn't be so ignorant to let it kill me.“It is a good thing she knows that she should be scared,” I said. “I don’t need her to love me.”Carlos nodded, not looking convinced. “But you do love her, don’t you?”I moved close to him and emphasized every word. “I Don’t Love Her.”“Lo, I have known you for a long time,” Car
