About ten minutes later, Leo's car pulled up in front of the gate. He looked around but there was no sign of Isabella so he called her. "I am outside your school gate" he said and Isabella showed up after a minute. She look kind of tired from today's activities which reminded him of his days in the University. "Good evening master" she greeted again, sitting down in the passenger seat in front with him. "How was your classes?" he asked the moment be ignited the car and drove out of the premises. "It was fine" she replied not knowing what else to say. "Good, did you eat?" he asked again which made her look at him, since when did he start caring if about her though?"I ate this morning" she replied truthfully, she had two consecutive classes after she ate with Jane this morning so there was no way they could leave the class."No matter how tight your schedule turns out to be, don't ever skip your meal. I don't want you to become malnourish, do you get that?" he questioned. "Yes" s
Isabella look from the maid to the people on the table with her, why is he requesting for her presence? Did she do anything wrong? Or is it on yesterday's cooking? What is she going to do if he decides to punish her? Not knowing the kind of punishment he is always talking about irk her the most. What if he order her to jump or do some kilometers race? Or even worse? She shook her head to get rid of the thought as it was beginning to put fear into her. She stood up with a fake smile on her face and nodded her head. "I will excuse myself then, see you later" she informed, Ellie wanted to say something but she couldn't because Isabella already disappeared out of the kitchen before she could even say a word. Instead of using the elevator, she absentmindedly climbed the stairs and when she knew she will be late to his room, she was already half way through the stairs. Isabella hissed loudly and screamed like a lunatic causing some of the workers to turn their heads to her. Embarrasse
Isabella stared at Leo like a lost puppy, her face revealed confusion. Sincerely, she doesn't understand a bit of what he said and what scare her most is the look in his eyes she cannot fathom. As much as she thought she could read him, she just can't because his eyes got darker as he continue to stare at her. After realizing what he said, Leo groaned internally at his stupidity. He let go of Isabella in embarrassment regretting what he just said. How could he have said that? He must be going crazy to have said that in front of her. What will she think of him? A creep? He was lost for a moment forgetting the fact that she is Bella, his little pet whom he is not supposed to show interest in. Clearing his throat, he took a step back from her creating a little distance between them. "Anyway, I hope you understand what I said. I hate repeating myself and also getting mad because of someone. You can leave" he said making gestures with his hand then turned around and entered into his
Adam faced the pool and dropped a tiny stone in the water, making a thud with it. Feeling too cold, Isabella removed her legs from the water and wore her shoes. "Where is she? Why is she not in this compound?" Isabella asked Adam who looked confused about her question, suddenly do not know who he is referring to. "I mean master's mother" she added to specify her question and Adam's face turned sour immediately, his face suddenly held horror as he look around in case someone or Leo himself will be passing. "Don't ever ask that question again, especially when Leo is around. Everyone in this mansion is forbidden to talk about her, I just got too into it a while ago and spoke about her. Please, don't ask anyone else, you've not seen one-third of his anger since you came here" Adam said referring to Leo. His mother is a sour topic for him. The only time he controls his anger is if it's his father that spoke about her, although he will be very mad but not compared to when outsiders talk
After saying that, he walked away without looking back at her. Isabella turned to Ellie with a confused look. She doesn't understand why he is calling her all of a sudden. Scared, she stood up and breathed out to calm her nerves then followed him outside the living room. With a few inches between them as she walk behind him, when he abruptly stopped, she hit his back, she quickly apologized to him. Leo stared at her for a while without saying anything, she glanced at him but averted her gaze immediately, afraid he might get mad at her. He then grabbed her hand and dragged her to the library locking the door behind them before pinning her to it. "I told you to be prepared at anytime, I might want you anywhere, anytime and anyday and that time is now" he said kissing her neck. His eyes caught her opened cleavage, he frowned, drew up her shirt to cover it. That act looked childish to Isabella but she couldn't say anything. "I am not the only man in this mansion. In fact, men domin
He smiled at how obedient she is before bending down on her and claimed her lips hungrily. Leo kiss her passionately as he spank her butt at the same time. He made sure he held her down well even with her legs wrapped around him while his hand move up and down her belly. Once he let go of her lips, they both were breathing heavily. "I want to try new things with you, I mean I want you to learn something new today, I am giving you the chance to use a safe word when you think you can't bear it anymore" he said to her. Isabella stared at him in confusion, she sincerely did not understand what he meant by that but she is excited to learn the new thing he first talked about. He unwrapped her legs from him and turned her over with her back to him, not before making her lay in a kneeling position to make it easier for them. "Bella!" he bemused "I will stop whatever I am doing immediately you say your name so that's your safe word" he added and this time, she nodded her head. "Yes maste
Isabella silently opened Leo's door and peeped inside hoping that he won't be inside the room before she enters. Fortunately, he wasn't in the room. She sighed over nothing but happy about the fact that he is not in the room just yet so she climbed the bed, wrapped herself in the duvet and closed her eyes with the intent to sleep. Tomorrow is going to be a long day for her with lots of classes and studying she have to do after school. She heard the sound of the door opening few minutes after she got on the bed. Knowing that it will be none other than Leo, she tightly closed her eyes and pretended to sleep with the hope that she won't have to stress it before sleep finds her for real. With her eyes closed, Isabella heard a thud on the side of the bed, she felt him sit down but she wasn't sure what he was doing. Till today, she doesn't know why he insisted on her sleeping in his room every night. If only he knows how uncomfortable she is with it. But then again, does he really care?
Isabella fidget with the tip of her fingers, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh but Leo's words got to her. It always does. "Do you understand?" he asked staring into her soul, then she nodded her head. "Yes...master" since she came here, if she's not mistaken, she haven't expressed herself or speak just the way she wants. It's true that Leo own her, she's his possession and she's not objecting to that but does he have to rub it in her face all the time? That hurts more than those times he inflicts both physical and emotional pain on her.Without saying any other thing, Leo turned on the car engine and drove out of the vicinity to her school in a pregnant silence. When they got to the front of the gate, he stopped the car and she got out after muttering a thank you to him. Even if he hurt her with his words, he still brought her to school, that's something to thank him for. Leo stared at her retreating figure till she disappeared from his sight. He ran his hand through his hai
Isabella came out of her room fully dressed. There was a smile on her face as she came out of the elevator. She felt like she had won a lottery after both she and Leo settled their differences. Isabella hasn't been this happy in a while, she can't even describe the exact way she feels. She oddly couldn't explain her feelings but she knows that she is excited. "The smile on your face is luxurious" Adam whispered in her ear and she grinned at him. She is way beyond excited knowing that Leo has accepted her, he offered them a new beginning and she will stay by him. That's enough for her for now. She just wants to be by his side, seeing him alone is enough for her. "Because I am happy" she replied with laughter. "You are acting suspicious sis, did Cane give you anything to drink before we came there yesterday?" Adam asked while eyeing her suspiciously. "It's nothing like that" she waved it off with laughter. "Are you going for your exam? How prepared are you?" he asked. "Well, maybe
Isabella woke up with a sore arm, she tried moving her hand but it was as if someone placed something on it and she wasn't wrong. When she opened her eyes, her mouth went wide at the sight of Leo curled up next to her with his head placed on her shoulder. She was completely unaware of when he came in but what is he doing in her room? With the way he folded himself, it was obvious that he was cold. He didn't use the spreadsheet to cover his body. Isabella slowly began removing her hand making sure that he didn't wake up as a result of that and when she successfully did that, she exhaled, stretching her arm at the same time wondering if it's how men feel when a woman sleeps on their arm for too long. It does hurt! As she was about to come down from the bed to cover him with a blanket and disappear from the room before he woke up, he held her hand to stop her from going anywhere."Stay! I haven't been able to sleep for two days. I have insomnia and strangely, I can sleep with you by m
"You two Shouldn't have Cole with me, I can handle this just fine on my own" Leo protested. "We know you can but we are already here, I also want to teach that stupid man a lesson for having the guts to hurt our sister" Carlos blurted out. Immediately he realized what he just said, his hand flew to his mouth and his eyes darted to Leo while Sean stared at him like he had gone crazy. "I mean... I hmm—" "You don't have to explain yourself to me. It's okay if she is your sister, just protect her from now on. I need you all to keep her safe so that this won't happen again" Leo chipped in with a low chuckle. He had been furious since they left the house but this made him smile. Leo is aware that the guys see Isabella as family and their younger sister since she is the youngest of them. As long as it's just that relationship, Leo doesn't mind. He loves that they are getting along with her and they love her. Within a span of three to four months, Isabella has made everyone fall in love
Leo stared at the petite girl seated in front of him with a sigh. He reached for her hand and took it into his without breaking eye contact with her after making sure that she was looking at him. "Bella" He called. Isabella instructively shook her head to avoid his burning eyes. "Stop looking down and look at me" Isabella subconsciously raised her head immediately feeling like she was still his sex slave and owned by him. Since it's something she has done before, the habit has been instilled in her. "I know I don't have any excuse to have done everything I did but I am sorry, I couldn't do anything like a fool and let you go just like that. I thought letting you go would keep you safer than you being around me" Leo tried to explain but she couldn't wrap her head around it. How would she have been safer outside his mansion which is fully protected with strong security and enough people to look after her and care for her? "But I think that was a wrong decision and I am sorry" he ap
The small open space was turned into a bloodbath with most of Cane's men taken down. Leo made sure that only one person was unconscious, he didn't let the guys shoot him and gave him a shot on his shoulder instead of a vital organ that might be a hindrance to delivering Leo's message. After thirty minutes of a bloody fight with gunshots filling the air, every one of Cane's men that was there was taken down except just that one whose arm was shot. Leo walked up to him, he grabbed the man by his collar making him stand on his feet. "I am letting you go with just a shot on your arm so that you can deliver my message to your boss. You should be thanking your God for making me spare you so listen very carefully" Leo pissed as he hit the man's cheek for a few seconds then sighed to calm his breath. "Tell Cane Smith that I am giving him the chance to dig his grave in a way that suits him if he doesn't want me to do it for him. For every pain he inflicted on Bella, I will give him at leas
Isabella looked at herself in the mirror and then at the menu in her hand. She was standing inside the bar area and it was so noisy. She kept shifting uncomfortably while drawing down her gown. It was way too short and was exposing too much of her skin. She looked around the place filled with different calibers of drunks. They were talking and laughing within themselves, clearly wasted but still requesting more drinks. "Waiter bring another bottle of vodka" One of the men yelled. "What are you waiting for? Are you not going to attend to them?" Cane spoke into her ears out of nowhere. She jumped from being startled. Her mouth was shaking, even her hands were a bit left out. "I... I" "Stop stammering and get to work pretentious whore. I will be watching you from here to see how you will handle those men. Do not talk rudely to them and if they demand for your body, I will tell them the price" Cane announced and pushed Isabella forward after handing her a bottle of vodka.She held bo
Isabella didn't understand what Cane meant by her earning the money back for him until he went and came back with a dress and makeup artist. She was lost and confused as she was still hooked on those words Leo said about her. She wanted to get them out of her head so that she could stop hurting but she couldn't just like the way she couldn't stop herself from calling in love with him. Cane grabbed her up and made her stand on her feet even though she was looking unstable. "From now on, you will join the girls at my bar to serve the tables but yours comes with a special job because you will be rendering the service of your body to them as long as they pay me. Once I have gotten enough money to compensate for my loss, I will think of what to do with you" Cane explained clearly. It wasn't hard for Isabella to understand what he meant. While she is serving the tables at his bar, she will also be serving her body to the customers who need it. She gulped down and shook her head in disap
Jack Grayson was seen in a small house far from the city. He has been hiding here since the last time he spoke with Leo. The look on Leo's face that day was scary, it wasn't difficult to find out that the dangerous man had fallen for his pretty niece's charm. He'd come for her if he got to know that Jack took her from him not because he wanted to buy her freedom again but to sell her at a higher price. He had to flee his home to this place while he was processing his visa secretly. Just as he expected, Jack got a call from his neighbor about some people coming to look for him. It was obvious who it was. Leo did come to find him.Jack will be dead gone if he gets caught. Leo is not someone to mess with, the thought of going through what he went through the day they came to collect their payment made him shudder in fear. And as at that time, his boys were so lenient with him. Jack needs to leave the country for now else, it won't be long until he is caught. He made enough money from t
Cane Smith laughed to his heart's content on seeing calls from Leonard as expected. Leonard did value this girl here. "It seems your lover boy will find you soon but I am not sure about you being alive before then" Cane laughed again. He is suddenly feeling jelly for no reason. The fact that he just confirmed his guts and found out that he is right makes him overly excited. He pushed Isabella aside without saying anything else to her and left the room while laughing. He is going to be in a good mood today. Isabella exhaled deeply the moment her new master and his men left the room. They didn't care to untie her or remove the seal from her mouth. She just carefully stood up on her feet and sat down on the bed with all her body aching. She couldn't lie on the bed due to her hands being tied to her back. She is glad that Cane chose not to do anything to her body sexually. She'd feel dirtier than she already is and might end up developing PTSD without being able to save herself from t
