CHAPTER 3

TAYLOR 

He was looking at me. His eyes were blank and icily condescending as he stared at me from where he stood but I could still strangely feel a weird warmth creeping from my stomach up to my chest.

He was handsome. So good looking that I momentarily forgot that all in one night, I'd been betrayed by my boyfriend and was sold to him, a mafia lord who was said to be ruthless. 

I had no idea what mafia lords did exactly since I'd never come across one before but judging from the gun and silencer he held, it was obvious that he was indeed dangerous. 

His gaze finally shifted from mine as he turned to look at the guards and he waved his hand up for them to raise their heads which they did.

My eyes rounded when he began to fix the silencer on the gun and I watched the guards give each other questioning looks.

“Who hurt her?” His voice, still deep, cold and spine chilling like from the auction, asked the guards while he gestured toward me and I was confused at first.

But then I remembered the mascara stained tears on my face which must have given me away and I aggressively began to wipe them off even though I knew my face was only becoming more of a mess.

“I asked a question and I hate repeating myself so give me an answer before I blow your brains out” he said, his voice still calm while he drilled holes through them with blazing eyes and I saw one guard swallowing in fear.

It was satisfying to see them scared and I wondered just how ruthless this Mr Rover was to make them look this terrified.

They still didn't say a word and obviously losing his patience, he shot straight into the knees of two of them and I screamed as their blood splattered all over the place while they fell and writhed in pain.

I looked at Mr Rover in fright and I went stiff when I didn't find a hint of remorse or empathy in his eyes. Instead, he looked exhausted, like he didn't want to be there but at the same time, wanted to teach them each a lesson.

With that, he turned toward the one he didn't shoot and pressed the tip of his gun against his throat while looking him right in the eyes.

“So tell me, who hurt her and made her cry?” He asked, his voice still calm and the man shook all over in utmost terror while he looked anywhere but Mr Rover's eyes.

“I did” he whispered shakily and Mr Rover chuckled as a cold smile spread across his lips.

“And why did you?” He asked him and the guard inhaled deeply.

“She was rude so I wanted to teach her a lesson” he lied and I was so close to speaking up but I feared he would hurt me so I kept shut.

“What he said. Is it true?” He suddenly directed a question at me and I went even stiffer as our eyes locked again.

I looked at the guard then back at him before I swallowed in fear and he noticed I was scared.

So he pressed the gun harder against the guards neck while maintaining eye contact with me.

“Speak to me. Did he say the truth?” He repeated his question and I exhaled before I slowly shook my head and the guard growled at me but Mr Rover was quick to knock him on the head with the butt of his gun.

“What exactly did he do to hurt you then?” He asked and I broke eye contact with him since his eyes looked too terrifying to look into. 

“He touched me in the car…”

“Where?” he asked me unshakenly and I glanced at him before looking away again.

“On my thigh. He told me he wanted to have fun with me”

“Then what happened?”

“I told him to get his hand off me and he slapped me thrice on the same cheek” I explained and slowly, he turned toward the guard who was shivering even more while blood trickled down his head to his face.

“Is that true, what she said?” He asked and the guard closed his eyes for a second before he opened them and nodded his head.

“Hold your hands out now” Mr Rover ordered and still shaky, the guard did as he was told.

Then Mr Rover took two steps back and it all happened so fast. He shot him twice in both palms and I couldn't even scream this time. I just stared in a state of shock… like I was stuck in a trance.

“You were assigned to bring her to me but you had the audacity to hit her and even lied to me. Nobody touches what's mine and you did just that… so let's see how you can use those hands to hit anyone again. That's your payback, bastard” 

Mr Rover hissed in the guard's face while he yelled and cried in pain then he turned toward his own bodyguards who stood by all along and instructed them to take all three of them away with their car even as they bled.

After the whole ruckus, he discarded his gun and walked toward me where I remained on the ground, transfixed in shock and horror.

Then he knelt before me and grabbed my chin to make me look into his eyes and while I was still drowning in shock and terror, I couldn't help but get drawn to his electric blue eyes.

Something about them made my heart unexplainably race with both fear and another emotion I couldn't place a finger on. Then he suddenly pressed his thumbs beneath my eyes and I let out a gasp when he wiped my tears away very delicately.

“Are you alright?” He asked me softly and I didn't know what to say since he himself scared me. I knew he got back at the guards for me even as he didn't know me but how could I be alright after seeing him shoot three able bodied men so nonchalantly?

“See what I did to them just now?” He suddenly asked when I didn't give an answer to his question yet and I fearfully nodded my head in response.

“If you try to run from me, I'll do the same to you because I bought you and you now belong to me so don't cross the line” he warned and my heart had never sunk so deep from fear. 

“Y…yes sir” I stammered and he patted me on the head.

“Good” he said and with that, he was gone.

No one had to tell me because with what I'd witnessed, I knew I was in deep shit.

    CHAPTER 99MICHAEL Fernandez brought the car to a halt once I arrived at my father's mansion. Then he got the door for me and I stopped out of the car.Adjusting my suit, I took a good look at the building before me and I couldn't help but wonder what my father's decision about Carlos was going to be.“Wait here, Fernandez. I know this is going to be quick” I told him and he nodded his head.“Okay boss” he replied and with that, I walked into the house.He was seated by the wine bar and waiting for me while he had a glass of wine. So I sat beside him and he gestured for the man behind the bar to pour me a drink.“He shouldn't bother. I'm not in the mood for a drink” I dismissed the offer and he looked at me. “Then what are you in the mood for?” He asked me and I sighed.“I want to know what you discovered about Carlos's dealings during his honeymoon and how you intend to resolve the whole situation” I replied without batting an eye and he smiled.“You've always been the serious one”

    CHAPTER 98 TAYLOR The entire journey back home was quiet and the tension hanging in the air was killing me. I had no idea what to say to Michael after his reaction back in the hotel and I had one burning question on my mind until we reached the penthouse and went to our separate rooms… Did I say something wrong? It felt like we were back to square one. Back to the way things were when we were both so distant to each other and lacked basic communication skills. All I wished for was him to tell what bothered him so much about Carlos's dealings but I guess I touched a soft spot with my words and now, he wouldn't even look at me. After dropping my luggage in the closet and having a quick shower, I wore a simple dress and grabbed a brush to comb through my hair but then I heard Michael open the door to his room and I wondered if he was leaving to see his dad already. Quickly, I rushed out of my room, hair brush in hand and true to my thoughts, he was about to leave without saying a

    CHAPTER 97TAYLORBreakfast was… eventful. Michael did quite a lot to me, especially with his tongue and I could say that I saw heaven one too many times to count.Then we went for a walk at the poolside and seeing him in only shorts under the sun was a magnificent sight for my eyes to feed on. He looked perfect.As we stood by the poolside, a hotel staff walked up to us and handed a phone over to Michael and we both looked at her questioningly. “What's the call for?” Michael asked her while taking his glasses off to have a better look at her and she smiled awkwardly.“Sorry for the interruption but the person on the other line says it's urgent. He said to tell you to take it… it's your father, Mr Rover” She explained and immediately Michael heard the name, he took the phone from her and excused himself to speak to his father.Soon, he returned, his face filled with worry and I frowned when I read his expression. “Hey, what's the matter? You look disturbed” I told him and he pinche

    CHAPTER 96TAYLORI grumbled when the alarm rang because I wasn’t ready for the day to start yet. Then it stopped, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Michael watching me. Quickly, I covered my face with a blanket as memories from the previous night returned, and he chuckled.“Good morning, love. I hope you had a great sleep,” he teased with his question, and I felt my face getting warm as I struggled to find the words to say in return.“You know t’s just me and you, right? You dont have to be shy or squirm before me” he said before grabbing the blanket ad pulling it down and we stared at each other in silence.“Taylor… you’re all red and flushed. I never thought you’d be this shy afterward” he said while eyeing me and I palmed my face which caused him to laugh.“We were intimate for the first time, Michael. It’s normal for me to be shy afterward,” I returned, and I suddenly felt his warm breath on my face. So I took my hand down only to catch him leaning in, and I blushed even more.“Wh

    CHAPTER 95TAYLOR Michael kissed me like he was starving. The way he held my face, the way he kept me pulling me closer and closer until I could feel the warmth from his body and the way my insides roared for him… all of them made me realize I was ready.I soon pulled away from the kiss when I needed air and his parted lips glistened as we both panted hard, our chests heaving up and down while we struggled for air.“Michael…” I stopped after calling his name and bowed my head. I was suddenly feeling shy and I didn't know if I could bring myself to tell him what I had to say. But I knew I had to say it because it was the only way he would know what I wanted.Softly, he cradled my face and raised my head to look at him and my eyes briefly fell on his lips when he licked them. Heavens knew how much I desperately wanted him to ravish me.“What is ur, Taylor. It's just me and you so speak to me” he urged and I sighed as I felt my face turn hot.“I'm kind of shy right now. I'm trying to fi

    CHAPTER 94TAYLORMichael was awfully quiet throughout our drive back to the hotel, and his reaction made me wonder if I’d perhaps said the wrong thing while answering his father’s questions… or maybe I shouldn’t have spoken at all. Maybe that was why he was mad at me.We arrived at the hotel and he still didn't say a word as he got the door for me and helped me out of the car.Then we headed to our room, and as we walked in, he grabbed the hotel phone and ordered dinner for us.“Are you mad at me?” I asked him as I remained by the door and he looked at me, his face etched with a frown.“Why would you think that?” He asked, and I walked toward the vanity to take off my jewelry.“Well, for starters, you're frowning. So you look mad” I said as I took off my necklace and I could feel his eyes on my back as he stood on the same spot.“And?” He inquired, and I looked at him through the mirror before me.“You didn't speak to me since we left your father. Did I say something wrong or did I p
