Chapter 37 Confusing Answers
“It’s simple, your heart. I could hear your escalated heart beats.” He answered shamelessly, throwing a napkin over my face. I caught it with surprise and looked up at him. He was standing, stretching his hands open in the air. Bastard, always know how to get on my nerves. I walked towards him and started dabbing his forehead, keeping distance. As I dried his forehead, I moved to his abs, keeping my eyes on it, trying not to look weirdo, but I knew I was losing my mind again. As my other fingertips touched his torso, he jerked my hand in his and pressed it over his stomach. I looked up to face him.
“What?” I asked, blinking at him, acting innocent. He nodded his head in negative but picked me up around his waist. I wrapped my legs around him. He rested me over the seat of a nearby machine.
“What are you doing here? At this time?” He questioned, standing between my legs, resting hi
Chapter 38 Fear Bone chilling scream startled me in my pace, made me think twice before my leg dared to step forward in its direction. I was walking towards that dark pitched staircase with my hesitant steps. Drumming of my heartbeat was roaring in my ears, but still I was taking steps toward that large brown door whose metal was shining in the dandling bulb over it. I was staring at it standing over the staircase, thinking should I knock or not. But the thought of that scream made me walk down and stand in front of that door. Something is really wrong with this mansion. My suspicion was getting stronger and stronger. That door opened with a screeching noise as I raised my hand to knock, startled me, and took a few steps back immediately. One black dressed heavily muscular man came out holding a blank expression over his face and closed the room instantly without letting me take a look inside. “What’s happening there?” I questioned boldly, w
Elena Davis,It's been exactly five hours and twenty four minutes but still his meeting hasn't finished yet. What happened? Why is it taking so long? I walked in the direction of the coffee table in my room to drink one more glass of water to calm myself down but I don't think it's going to work on me. I heard a knock on the door as cool water cascading my throat, putting the glass down. I turned to see Alex enter my room and widened the door. A maid entered after her holding a tray of food in her hand, she quietly put that tray over the coffee table and left with a node on her head without uttering a word. "You didn't come for dinner, are you ok?" She inquired with a worried face coming towards me. "I am really sorry for not informing you Alex but I don't feel like eating anything right now." I apologized, she made me sit on a nearby couch. "Because, brother wasn't there?"She asked in a teasing tone wiggling her eyebrows at me. "Alex, no. It's not
Fight For A HeartElena Davis,My heart froze hearing him, he was talking about the marriage of my Arius. He is not anymore mine, he never was mine, I should have realized that earlier living in a mirage will always leave you heartbroken when reality strikes hard."Daughter of Carlo Binachi, soon will be daughter in law of the Accardo family." He announced, holding his sinister smile. It took me a moment to compose myself hearing him, my body couldn't understand what to do and what not, everything suddenly became unnecessary for me. I left his hand but he was still holding mine, locking his long rough fingers around my palm. With great effort I restricted them to curl around him."Father, not her. She is just as important as a doormat." Marc roared in disbelief, staring at his father, creasing his forehead."That doormat is going to be your sister in law soon, you better watch your tongue in front of her." He replied calmly, taking a seat again, in
Facing His Truth,Elena Davis,Brustling heavy and loud footsteps from the corridor pulled me out from my sleep to realise a new reality of me in his life scaring me because these heated sunlight of sun doesn't bring any hope for me but I could feel the new erupting darkness in my life which was brought by none other than Arius, the person whom I fell in love like a crazy but the same person who just consider me nothing more than a puppet in his hand and enjoys dancing according to his will.I looked around the room, where he forced me to sleep last night with him pinning me the whole time ignoring my pleas as he couldn't even hear it.

I took a breath of relief as he wasn't around and headed towards the bathroom to get freshen.Events of last night were flashing in my mind, clutc
Chapter 42 Over The Door of Hell Elena Davis, “Arius is the leader of Mafia?” My world froze hearing Nicole’s words as everything I know about the man I love was just a mask, nothing else, everything I know about him wiped away as the footmarks from the beach after a tide. Tears were brimming in my eyes; I raised my shaky hand over the wall to support my body. I should have asked him before, shouldn’t have fallen for him. What do I do now? The memories of us were flashing continuously in my mind, scaring me with the reality this fate brought in front of me. I wasn’t prepared for this. “Elena? Are you there?” Nicole called, taking a small step towards me, creasing his forehead with confusion.

Chapter 43: In the Cage of Arius Elena Davis, His green pair of emeralds were glancing in my eyes as he wanted to peep in my soul. They were calm as a smiling sea, but who was going to know it more than me. It was just on the verge, of that calm sea brings the tsunami of anger which wants me to flow in them just to save me again to gain control over my body. Because he knew he already had control over the heart of that body. He held me closer to his heart as he wanted to keep me warm with his body temperature, but it was a sugar coated treat for me and a reminder to not do this again. I closed my eyes and let him carry me wherever he wanted; I didn't have an ounce of energy to run anymore. Why isn't he asking anything? Why was he so calm when nothing happened?
Chapter 44 Troubled Heart Elena Davis’s Pov, It’s been weeks since that night, I refused to see his face and decided to lock myself in my room. He used to send maids and Alex from time to time to see me, serve meals, and for her reasons but he didn’t come himself. It was me who screamed not wanting to see his face anymore. I wanted to punish him for lying to me for being in the mafia the way destiny had chosen for him but I was the one who ended up getting punished, forcing myself to be away from him. I knew it wasn’t his fault to be born in a mafia family but it’s important to get isolated from him. I got deeply invested in him as I couldn’t feel detached from him at all.

Chapter 45 Danger Over the Unaccepted Heart Elena Davis’s pov, I was terrified a lot when I saw that man keeping his finger over the trigger of the machine gun in his hand and standing like an unmovable mountain. He had a serious and cold face gazing everywhere but me. He lowered his eyes instantly when I looked at him. He must be in his late early thirties and was dressed like a commando ready to kill the person in front of him. I was holding Alex in a tight grip, breathing hastily, struggling with the surrounding situation. “Sabbb, You scared us,” Alex exclaimed, furrowing her eyebrows at him. He took a step back, slowly lowering his machine gun a bit, but his finger didn't leave the trigger, making me worried.
Chapter 59: Revealing The Piece of The HeartMy lips were quivering, and I couldn’t comprehend what I should do. The dripping blood from the knife suffocated me as if it was yelling at me I murdered that man. Breathing while my blood-drenched hands shook violently. Arius ran hurriedly over to me with his worried face and glanced back at his dead body of Dante. He held my trembling hands and threw the knife away, filling me in his arms tight. My body left the last strength, and I scattered in his embrace. Tears were rolling down my cheeks, yet a word wasn’t daring to break out from me. He cupped my face and made me look at him.

Before I could get up and defend my honor, he clutched a bunch of my hair, bringing closer to his fuming face.“You know, I was never agitated about this before finding out you are alive. The only thing Arius ever cherished with his heart and slaughtered my family in front of my eyes.” His vengefulness was dripping from his eyes, flooding this dark room entirely. I was struggling to push this bastard away from me, but his death grip over me didn’t allow me to take a step away from him.“Now, I will enjoy you and see how he feels about it?” He pressed me over the floor, dropping his body weight, trapping me under him. I have to hold him until Arius comes here to save me. He will definitely come for me. Hurry, love, before it
Chapter 57: The Crushing Down RealityA flash of icy cold water on my skin jerked me up into reality. I coughed a few times, trying to snatch some air to breathe. My headache was as if someone was pounding a hammer mercilessly with great effort.I lay on the dirty floor, and my hands were tightly bound over my back. Flashes of what happened back in the changing room crossed my mind, passing the chilies over my already shivering body.An arrogant smirk made me look up at the tall and muscular figure.

Chapter 57: Heartache and KidnappingAfter that incident, only Arius remained in my life in the form of light who kept my breathing continued. It's been weeks yet my heart has not emptied. Tears dried long but took away the shine in them, if it hadn’t been Arius’s touch I would have gone crazy.Every night, he tried to make me sleep but the beautiful memories of them make me cry.

Chapter 55: Understanding You I looked out of the window. The dark forest which used to remind of the depth of my love for him, now reminding how dangerous it can be to be fallen in love. My body shivered as he traced my arms before caging me in his embrace and peppered a few kisses on my neck. I wanted him to understand what he had done, but my empty heart couldn’t feel anything. His deed didn’t subside my love for him. I wasn’t able to dislike this man. “Don’t be such a silent wife, just name it. I will do whatever to smile at you again.” A teardrop slipped unknowingly at his words. He tinted the holy church, killed his bride in front of the cross, forced me to marry him. Was he who coaxing me? “El, it’s me.” I looked at the sound source. Alex was standing behind me, and Arius was nowhere to be seen. Her presence broke my patience, and I ran

He took my shivering hands in his and pressed over his lips, kissing me a few times, but he failed to calm my terrified soul.“My Snowflake, look here.” He held my chin up to face him. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I closed my eyes, not wanting to look at him anymore.“How many times I have to tell you, don’t shed those precious pearls? It makes me weak.” The desperation in his voice broke out. A long-suppressed sob, making my condition worse.

Chapter 51: An Shocking AnnouncementThe cracking sound of bullets was roaring throughout the church along with the reloading of the guns. I pulled out my gun, tucked it in my belt, and took shelter behind the wall as soon as I composed myself. The half of the platform I was standing on was destroyed. Good, it means I am their target, not the rest of my family.‘James’s men allowed them through the gates.’ Terance’s voice boomed in my air. I peeped out. Father and Marc were already holding machine guns hidden behind their chairs. They were in form and took down a few advancing men simultaneously. Nicole was protecting Alex from a distance. She was hidden behind the counter.I aimed at a man dashing towards them from a corner. A rain of bullets was showering all over. They wiped out the dripping blood from my temples and came out of the shelter, getting better access to kill them.
