The mansion looked calmer than usual, the time they returned back, the sun had already started to doze off, replacing the brightness with sophisticated glint of pink and purple in the sky. The soft breeze touched her like feathery softness, her eyes closing with impact.
Caught you.
The words again ringed in her head and she suddenly opened her eyes with a defeated sigh. For a moment, she thought of telling Silvio but the threats were clear. And losing her father or Olivia never existed in her nightmares. Though Silvio was far dangerous, her situation seemed more death-dealing.
Her fingers tightened around the device in her hands as she gazed down at it. A simple buttoned phone it was, and she didn't knew what did it meant.
Her eyes widened as the black screen of phone sparkled with light, a small notification ting heard as she immediately looked towards the door. Telling Silvio wasn't an option but i
With his hands sitting deep in the pockets, Silvio leaned back against the glass door of his office balcony as he puffed on a rolled-up stiff of treasure luxury. He leaned his head back against the glass door and stared up at the night sky.It's like no matter how hard he tried, he did, she was imprinted in his mind like a god-forbidden sin. He closed his eyes, and inhaled the cool breeze of night, melting his insides. Her whiskey brown eyes flashed before his eyes as he groaned."We need to leave in an hour."Silvio tilted his head to the side to see man with short black hair and brown mocha eyes starring at him."Hmm," Silvio hummed before taking another puff.He heard Dante sigh."Silas would be there." Dante reminded him and Silvio unconsciously nodded his head. Dante stood there, looking at Silvio. He couldn't help but saw fragments of
My body trembled violently as I stepped outside the car, if it wasn't for Silvio's arm around my waist, I knew I was definitely going to kiss the ground. My feet failed to keep me in pace as I felt soreness between my thighs. The weird sensation was too overwhelming to bear.I glared at him as he smirked down at me."I didn't knew two fingers could make you so..." His eyes trailed down my face as they landed on my lips before he again held my gaze. "Vulnerable."The greys of his pupils dilated followed by tightening of his arm around me. No matter how beautiful he looked, he was a devil who just knew how to get things done his way. He was no human, his heart was too much corrupted to belong to a human. I saw the intense hunger in his eyes, and he didn't felt ashamed a bit.I gulped.Maybe, I was wrong to assume he had any weakness."Let's go...bef
"It's his problem, not mine." Silvio shrugged. He rather looked calm under this heavy circumstances, his whole posture howling strange serenity.I couldn't understand a thing they were saying but I was still able to join two and two together.We were in danger.Severin narrowed his brows. Annoyance flashed through his coal eyes as he held Silvio's gaze."We have an agreement, Silvio. You will help us-""The agreement burned with my brother's corpse." Silvio gritted. His hands clenched into fists. I glanced at his face, and almost jumped when I noticed the darkness in his eyes. His jaw clenched as he stared at Severin with emotionless face."The relation between Sicilians and Italians turned into dust when your traitor of father killed my father." Severin's eyes widened for a second. Silvio continued. "And now when your ass is going to set up
She couldn't sleep.Three hours passed as she stared at night sky. The stars looked so bewitching to watch, the moon was serene. The cold wind didn't bothered her any more. She sighed for fifth time. Her restless mind making her think worse. She was deel engrossed in her thoughts when her ears twitched as she heard roaring of vehicles. Since the mansion located on outskirts of city, she somehow knew who these vehicles belonged to.Her hopeful eyes looked at large gates as three black looking cars entered the gates.She was about to run for door when the phone in her hand blinked, with confused eyes she opened it.Her eyes widened as she read the text over and over again.Gulping the lump of saliva, she immediately hid the phone under the bed before calming her breath.Her body reacted on her own as she immediately ran outside the room. Baref
"E-excuse me! Do you know where this is?" She panicked as she looked hopefully at the woman. Her brown eyes expectedly looked towards as she hope-"Sí, dietro l'angolo." The woman replied."English, please!" Sadie shook her head.The woman nodded looking strangely at her, wondering if she was in trouble."Around...corner...that." The woman pointed towards the white glass building. Sadie noticed few cars parked outside when her eyes caught small eating stall.Sadie was about to thank her when she noticed that she was already gone. Her heart pounded drastically against the cage of her heart.She remembered how quiet vividly her mind surrendered itself to the war of her heart that throbbed when she drugged Silvio. She had finally surprised herself that she was for once was able to outsmart him but she already knew the consequences. Hell would
"Say hello to your fiance, medico." Not once, nor twice, her heart skipped several beats. Fiance. The word was strange yet well-familiar to her. She was well aware of the meaning and the hidden truths this single word held. Edward indeed was her fiance, if things would have been perfect for her, she would have been a married woman. A small family would have been waiting for her when she returned from hospital. But she couldn't. This man had installed fear with thousands insecurities inside her before she even realise the meaning of it. He hadn't only screwed her up mentally but her twisted emotions were on high alert also. Edward grinned at her. The one that was supposed to make her feel butterflies but it was years ago, now she felt nothing but loathe for him. "What the fuck made you think I will marry a psychopath like you? Don't you dare hold the reigns of my life again, Edward." She glared at him. Her fear slolwy turned into anger that she h
"What do you mean by 'not trackable'?" My voice resonated through the walls of my room, Dante stared at me like I'd lost my mind, maybe I did. His bearded jaw slacked with disappointment. Like me, he was up the whole night despite our late arrival a few hours ago. Not to mention he was still wounded. "All the CCTV's have been tampered with. All the footage afternoon is either blank or deleted. It seems like someone has-" "Meddled with the security system. But who?" Dante preceded, the crutch beneath his right shoulder hit the floor as he walked towards Micah. I sighed, this was getting us nowhere. Four hours. Four fucking hours and it was still hard to track her. Rage. It was consuming me to know she was out there somewhere, away from my reach. Micah leaned against the wall, his charcoal eyes coolly amused as he crossed his trouser-clad legs at the ankles. "It would be fun to seize the traitor. I wonder who that'd be?" 
"Madam." A voice called me. A female. A warm palm is placed upon my shoulder softly shaking me from my slumber.I opened my eyes with every energy I had left as the sunlight peering through the slits of the window shade struck deep. Confusion was the first aspect that arises within me on this very new day.A small yawn escaped my lips, as I stretch my arms whilst flexing my limbs. Tying my loose hair up in a quick bun I finally acknowledged the woman's call."Y-yes." That was all I said. Dressed in a deep shade of brown, a woman was standing near the bed frame. My eyes groggily addressed her presence as I looked her way. Her pale green eyes greeted me with a small smile on her thin lips. Her pale cream skin shinned with rays of sun piercing through the sheer curtains draped along with the railed window."Master Alejandro is calling you." Alejandro? Yes! The vile old man.I nodded, lowering my head. My mind pondered over thin
A fiery storm brewed within Silvio's gaze, his eyes ablaze with a tempest of fury. Silas clasped onto my arms, his grip growing ever tighter, as Silvio's searching gaze followed the path of Silas's touch. I could sense the grinding of his teeth, and witnessed a deep well of loathing fill his eyes, like a piercing flame.“Guards!” Silas shouted loudly, causing me to startle at the sound of his voice. I kept my gaze fixed on Silvio's face while he simmered with anger and a group of men closed in around us. I felt a lump form in my throat as I assessed the predicament we were in. Silvio was at a clear disadvantage, and Alejandro approached Silas with a manic grin on his face.“Give me the girl,” he said and Silas shook his head. His eyes were on Silvio as he said. “She’s coming with me.” With his words, he jerked me to him as his arm slid from my bicep to my waist and he squeezed as Silvio roared. “Don’t fucking touch her.” He said calmly, too calmly. And my eyes shed tears as Silas sm
Fear was just malice, a feeling of failure, a sweet tangerine taste that had been ripped away with lies wrapped around dressed like beautiful truth I never knew I needed to survive. I just stood there, watching in pure startlement, as Dante rolled over in pain, his hands already wrapped around his head as he groaned in agonizing pain. The hit was fatal, the nerve Silas had hit was just above the nape, inflicting certain severe damage. My legs moved on their own as Silas motioned me towards him. My breathing was no more normal but a shattered breath leaving now and then. My brain was far too gone to respond or to give any commands or say anything. My eyes are still on Dante. Watching him as he suffered. "Come here. Now." Words were just an echo of sound that's an echo of air that's an echo of fear. Wobbling on my shaky steps, I somehow managed to reach him. It was just a push of air when his free hand was wrapped around my arm and with a hard tug, he jerked me forward. My breath c
"So...I am gonna ask you this for the last time...where the hell is she?" Silvio quipped as he kick Severin harshly over the curve of his abdomen, just over the wound he had inflicted on him a few minutes ago. Severin groaned as he rolled over in pain, his eyes closed shut while he pressed the area where Silvio had shot him. The blood had started to pool around him and he could find himself already on verge of losing consciousness."You...will pay for this....for betraying me...." Severin moaned out in agony as Silvio pressed his foot against his wounded side more firmly.He looked down at him with coldness marring his eyes."I assure you," he said calmly. "If any harm is to come to her, this visit will not end well....for you and your family." Despite being injured, Severin still managed to look heatedly at him."You bastard, you knew she was here....yet you deceive me." Severin looked a
Silas was taking a shower when the door of his bedroom was knocked harshly. His hazel eyes narrowed into slits as he glared at the door. For god's sake! He groaned. His tensed muscles were still stiff as he walked towards the door while wrapping the towel around his waist as he held back the urge to kill the person who disturbed him at this hour.He was already tired. Last night was still playing with his mind and this led him to spend the whole night with his mother, crying and talking like a mentally retarded person. The fact that he was drunk, added gruesome to his dignity. He had never visited his mother drunk.But the memories were still sober.Sighing, he opened the door."G-Good morning, Master Anderson."The made bowed her head down, her hands clasped in front, and Silas noted the shiver of her fingers as she tried not to look at him.He raised his brows."What?" He didn't try to mask his annoyanc
She felt a immediate rush of pain attacking her as she stirred to her left. It took her a whole minute to sit up as she struggled to keep her eyes open. Groaning, she managed to found herself in sitting position."Miss Quintin." A faint voice again called to her with softness drawing her out of her peaceful slumber as she promptly awaken to the soothing sound of the female.Frowning with perplexity that bounded her to take in her surroundings. She was in same room she had been residing in past few days, but she was not in same place she achingly slept last night by the cold material of couch rather she was nestled upon the soft mattresses, embraced warmly beneath the velvet blanket and warm quilt. How did I get here? She wondered with doubt."Master Anderson is calling you. He says he needs to talk urgently." The woman who hovered over the side of the bed. Sadie yawned as she gazed at the red haired woman. Sadie found hers
He was distorted.Feelings molded into a sharp knife that gradually pierced through his heart like a burning ember of sizzling flame.He was scared.The morphed knife held power to make him surrender. To make him feel vulnerable, an unknown emotion he never felt. Susceptibility seeped through his mind, tormenting his sentiments into a pained expression. He had survived long to know the darkness of the world, he had seen enough to liable her safety. Silas knew his father, even better than Alejandro knew himself. And Silas was also concious about the extents his father was ready to go to achieve what he resignedly craved. It was no more for clan extension, it no more concerned the hunger of power but a sated word. Revenge.It was always that.And Sadie was coming in his way.Silas sighed again. These thoughts were more intoxicated than alcohol he had consumed. He mi
He didn't know what he was supposed to do. That had been apparent from the beginning. That was what made the choice so difficult. What he was supposed to do and what he would do were not the same. His motive was to use her against his rival, to bring down his enemy, have a grave victory. But his desire was distinct, molded, and morphed into a harmonious composition of sentiments.This would have been fine if he were willing to face the inevitable, he had no ways to recover. He once was calculated, but now all he was left with was that small eerie feeling, small yet heavy. Just like the ocean, he was calm and tranquil, but just like the ocean, he had internal waves deep inside his heart which were howling loud.He had regularly exhibited signs of emotional dependency on their relationship, with her he felt at ease, including possessiveness when he witnessed Edward forcing her, jealousy when he saw Silvio with her, fear of rejectio
There were only several moments in life when silence make no sense. The eerie feeling could remind us one of being alive. Of hearing emotions through the tranquility, the serenity that weighs the words down, suppressing our sentiments.I could hear the silence now, could feel the waves of memories and melodies of the way his breath seized now and then whilst he pondered something.Nothing. Everything. All at once, I could feel his emotions yet I was failing to reach him."Sadie."His soft voice warmed me, filled me with the noise. No problem was that big, but our mind makes it otherwise. He helped me remember that I wasn't alone here, he was here, I was here. Probably alcohol was running through my veins now, but I suddenly like his company.Because we both were the same, and memories were all coming back to hurt me.I stared back into
I could argue that he didn't need to, but I kept my mouth shut and followed him. I didn't wante dto run into Edward again, and probably this was enough to make me seek comfort in his mere presence. I knew it wasn't my fault, but knowing Edward over years, I knew that idiot would probably blame me. He still doubts me, not that I minded, but he still thinks that my nature was to stay loyal to him. Always.He walked slightly in front of me. We didn't talk, choose to make the journey in silence. The silence, however was chaotic. Not only Silas had saved me, he had partially seen me half-naked. The shivering thought made me tighten my hold onto the fabric of his coat.I eyed his back. His off-white shirt clung indecently to his torso, the material looked shiny. Probably silk. Moreover, I wasn't delusional to think that Silas wasn't a foe. Him saving me didn't meant that we were pals, and we would talk about our pasts but I was hopeful that
