65. The Forbidden Secret~Pamela Now that I knew what was going on with Stephan, I became scared of what to do with the information. I knew it was out of the question to tell or show anyone so the only option left was to take it to my grave. Minerva was fuming when I opened the door to the surveillance room and I could tell that she was fighting the urge to punch me in the face. "What the fuck are you doing inside of this place," She demanded as she looked around in suspicion. She spotted the laptop and raised an eyebrow. "I needed some me time, Minerva, away from all this craziness," I lied but tried to sound convincing. "Bullshit! You locked me in your closet just so you could get some time alone when all you had to do was ask," Minerva let out in anger. "I did not think that you would agree with me," I said. "You are right, I would not have let you out of my sight for any reason," Minerva said coldly. "I guess what I did was justified then," I said in a playful tone and l
66 Owned by Him~ Pamela I was trembling in fear from where I sat as Stephan glared at me. A part of me wanted this to be over but another part of me did not want to divulge what I had seen. I was afraid that if I told him, I would be dragged further into his crazy world. His world of bullets, knives, and guns was chaotic enough, that I had no interest in mental battles, which scared me more. "I asked you a question Pamela and I want an answer now," He said in his serious almost quiet tone that I had come to get used to. I kept my mouth shut, not from defiance but from terror. I hated to see him like this because his presence was overwhelming. I stared at my empty plate as he waited for me to speak. I was not.Stephan leaned back into his chair and rubbed his chin, his face, deep in thought as he looked at me. I knew what he was thinking because I was familiar with the certain gaze he gave me over the times that I had spent with him. He was thinking of wh
67. Owned by Him II. ~Pamela "Walk with me," Stephan ordered me as he made his way out of the dining room. My legs followed in response as apprehension flowed through me. I was at a loss for words and could not even bring myself to imagine what he was going to do to me. I walked meekly beside him as we both headed for the stairs in silence. I fought the urge to make a run for it but where could I run to? Who could I run to? "You forced my hand Pamela, remember that," He told me with a kind of finality that made me shudder in expectancy of what was to come. The house seemed empty except for the both of us. I tried to even my breath as I climbed the stairs with him. He was right about me forcing his hand but it was not my fault. Whenever I was around him, smart decisions evaded me and he knew this. We got to the room and he shut the door behind the both of us. I had no clue about what he was going to start with as I stood awkwardly in the middle of the room. He walked to the so
68. Dark Confessions. ~ PamelaStephan walked away from me toward the sofa and removed his coat along the way. He dropped it carelessly on the lush carpeted floor. The behaviors of a spoiled child. Although his life was filled with different forms of trauma, he was still dotted by servants who cleaned up after him every time he made a mess. He sat down and spread his legs showing me his bulging erection. I unconsciously licked my lips and gazed at him with tremendous need. I suspected that he knew just what I was going through because I did not. It was hard to pinpoint what I was feeling exactly because I was going through a myriad of emotions. He sat in a very nonchalant way. His arms and legs spread like a king. He glared at me with a mixture of lust and anger. It was as if he wanted to ravage me but his anger was keeping him in check. He took a deep breath. "Sit up and place your feet on the ground, and keep them apart, I want to see all of you," He commanded firmly. I di
Hearts and Emotions~ DelmundoI was hurt. I was angry and most of all I was sad. I let the cold hit me as I walked naked to my room. I was still reeling from the throes of passion as I headed for my room and it took a lot of willpower not to go back and finish what I started. It was hard to believe that Pamela could do what she did. I admired her audacity but she had no right to destroy the flash drive. I knew she was telling the truth because I heard the desperation in her voice. I entered my room and went to the wardrobe. I found a neatly folded black V-neck tight-fitting T-shirt and a pair of jeans. I pulled it out and searched for pants to wear. Georgia handled all my clothes so it was a bit difficult to decide what to put on. I had no desire to sleep tonight because there was so much to do. I had an underground structure to destroy and a second meeting with my soon-to-be-dead ex. I found a pair of black fitted jeans and put them on. I walked to my shoe rack chose a pair of s
The hunt. ~ delmundo i drove to franks's place. frank had his house built deep in the woods and closer to the rivers. he loved nature and had a great dislike for people. i had built it for him on his birthday although i could not remember the date. he had grudgingly accepted and promised to pay me back in time but i doubted that he could give me anything that i already did not have. there was a pathway big enough for one car and it led straight up the house, i could also smell the waters. i pulled to a stop beside his armored hummer truck. i saw him sitting on the porch with a can of beer in his large right hand. he was still in his black suit but without a tie. i guessed that like me, slumber eluded him. it was hard to sleep for men like us. i got out of my car and walked toward his house. he got up and walked towards me with a slightly puzzled expression. "boss? i thought we were using the explosives tomorrow," he said. "i am not here for any of that, how would you li
72 The Toll Riders. ~DelmundoThe motorbikes were parked arrogantly in the middle of the road. The biker gang owned this part of Shack Town. They were ruthless and notorious in the outskirts for being bloodthirsty and I was happy that we all had that in common. The men and one statuesque slightly muscled-looking woman rested arrogantly on their parked bikes. They were still reeling from the proposal I had offered them. It was tough to make ends meet on these outskirts. It was why Father had sent me here. I glanced at Frank who had already understood his role. He stepped back and stood still. I stepped forward and looked at each biker one at a time. "It is good money gentlemen, all I ask you for is that you lead me to the Key Master," I said. "We do not know who that is, now hand over the car keys, and cash, we ain't got time to waste," The big man among them said. They all had on dirty camouflage cargo pants with boots and uniformed black leather vests
Protecting Him~Pamela I hated myself for what I had done to him. I hated the fact that he had tainted me somehow with his dangerous life. I hated the betrayed look he had given me when I had finally to him what he wanted to hear. Under the intense and prolonged sensual torture, I had managed to lie about the flash. It was safe and intact with it's location somewhere Stephan would never think to find. My mind was filled with thoughts of Stephan as I sat alone in my room. My body yearned for his touch and my heart raced for him. He had gone to do his mafia business. It was one of the ways he could cool off. I tried to imagine what he was doing, or who he was killing at the moment because death was the usual result when Stephan was involved. How was killing so easy for him? It had been difficult for me to process my shock when I fired my first gun at some men when they came in gun blazing. Now my fellow sisters are all calling me sister six. I did not want to get involved in the
~PamelaI joined Georgia and the ravens in the house as the last line of defense in case the men outside fail to repel Dwayne's men. I endured many minutes of gun shots and death cries. The door was being hit with bullets but it did not penetrate through the door.I realized in terror they Stephan was out there among those flying bullet. It took all the will in my body not to run outside to Stephan. More gun shots and shouting took place outside while I stayed inside almost losing my mind at the thought of Stephan dying."We should be out there, helping," Minerva grumbled "Yet we are in here shaking in our boots, while the men have all the fun," She complained.I did not want to agree with her but she was right. However, Georgia shut her down."This is not battle of the sexes, Minerva, we all have a roll to play here and we will," She said in a stern voice.Minerva did not have any time to reply before a deafening and earth shattering explosion rocked everyone to the ground. The force
~DelmundoThis was the first time I would spill blood for someone whom I loved.The was the first time that I fought for someone instead of something. This was the first time I was fighting for a cause. For legacy, for brotherhood, for family, and as hard as it was to believe, love.I, Frank, Georgia and Pamela sat in the dining room hatching our own plan of action. Minerva had bad new."They outnumber us three to two," She said in a serious tone."What does that mean?" Pamela asked with an innocent demeanor.I stifled a laugh. "Means they outnumber us a hundred times our two hundred men in the area," Frank said."But we still have the advantage though, we know he is coming," I said."There is a way to give us a fair advantage but it will mean that one person is not joining the fight," I said."And who is that going to be?" Minerva asked, looking ready to protest if it was her."Frank, it's going to have to be you," I said."And what will I be doing, Boss, if I am not out there rippin
~DelmundoI could not bear to watch her go.I could not witness anyone leaving me again. I had sat on the sofa watching the bed that Pamela used to sleep in. A concerned Georgia, every chance she got, would come and check up on me.I could not blame her for doing so, after the whole thing with the pistol. She was checking to see if I did not have any suicidal urge which I assured her that I didn't. However, she had insisted on checking and I agreed to keep her mind at rest.It was going to be hell trying to live my life without Pamela, but I had been through one before. It was going to be a long road to healing from this pain I was feeling. I had begged frank to help me see her home safely. I was afraid that I would develop difficulties when it was actually time to free her.The next best thing that gave me some modicum of sanity was this room. Her scent was everywhere in the room and it felt like she marked her territory before she left. I took in her odors and aura as I sat. Even th
PamelaI left Delmundo mansion that day. I did not know how he did it but a loading truck had pulled up in front of the house. Men in moving uniform were taking my belongings into the truck and I was downstairs in the living room with Georgia.She looked sad to see me go but believed that the right thing was happening. It was better for everyone this way. Stephan was nowhere to be found but I knew that her could not bear to see me leave him again for the second time. The moving men were already done so I gave Georgia a long overdue hug."I do not know how to thank you enough, please do no miss me too much," I said to her as tears threatened to fall from my eyes."Take good care of yourself, Pamela and do not forget me too quickly," She said. I nodded and let her go. I turned to the entrance and found Minerva waiting and looking a little bit downcast."Hey, I do not like you much but still, it sucks to see you go," She said and gave me a hard pat on the back."Thank you?" I said. Miner
PamelaHe got me a new phone and told me that I could call whoever I wanted. There were no restrictions. That gesture was the most tempting of his offers but I was not going to give in. He knew that I was itching to talk to people and by people, I meant my friend Tiana.It would be an opening for him to dominate me and it will start that rollercoaster of a toxic love. A hot, sensual, debauched and addictive toxic love. I hated him so much and I loved him as deeply as well.It had been a painful revelation to me when Stephan told me what Dwayne did. I knew that I was a chess piece in his bloody game of war but to go to that extent. I tried to imagine the emotional pain Stephan had gone through just seeing that dress.When he told me, I ran upstairs and cried into my pillow. Stephan had said it to get a reaction but he would not see me break. He said it to hurt me. That had always been that problem. Him, taking your space and body and giving you pain returnStephan Delmundo sucked at lo
PamelaAs the days under his tyranny grew longer, I grew colder toward him.I had lived with two different types of men and I could tell the stark difference. Dwayne had been patient even though I was not into him that way.Stephan was suffocating and always hovering around. He had taught me something unknowingly and that was to always observe people. Now the more I looked at him, in silent observation and dull eyes, the more I saw him.These past few days had been very difficult to be around him. All those times when he had been forcing me to speak to me, caressing, cajoling, coaxing, begging. I had wanted to give in. For a Mafia lord, he was very good with words. The way he begged me was alluring and tempting."Let me into your high tower, Pamela, it's cold outside," He had once rumbled in my ear. I was not prepared for it. It had taken place in the bathroom. He said while our bodies touched. Then, I had almost succumbed to his hypnotic words but I managed to snap out of it.I wante
~DelmundoIt became an unhealthy habit to orbit around Pamela. The things that I bought her were ignored and abandoned in the corner of the room. Georgia helped me rouse her from bed today again because she just laid still and stared at nothing.It became an unwanted routine. I will try to break the ice and she would in return give me the cold shoulder. Truth be told, I was running out of options and I could not think of a new way to get through to her. Eat, sleep, and bathe. That was all she did.She talked to Georgia but she would not speak to me and as ridiculous as it sounded, it made me so jealous to see Pamela open up to her and not me. Today like yesterday, she was still on the bed and silently so. I sought out Georgia again for a new set of advice.This time I found her in the kitchen making hot soup that had a chicken-flavored aroma. It was midday and I had just given Frank the usual order to be on the lookout for anything suspicious. I had no doubt Cage was on the move. I co
DelmundoI left her room confused and concerned.QIt was going to be tough not to hear her voice again but it was more than not talking. She showed no interest about leaving the room or getting off the bed. Since I was not getting through to her, I decided that a couple of gifts could change her mood.There was just one problem, I had no idea what could cheer her up so I did the next best thing, something I never thought that I would ever do in a long time. I sought out Georgia at the garden in the back yard. She was tending to the koi fishes in the pond.She had a forlorn expression on her face as she went about her work. Something was up with Georgia too. I could never understand how emotions applied to women, they were always a big mystery to me."What seems to be the problem, master Stephan? You have been standing there for a while," Georgia said as she threw crumbs of feed into the pond. I saw the colorful fishes flutter about to eat the crumbs."I need your help, Georgia," I tol
DelmundoGetting her back into my life did not feel as good as I thought it would be. The victory felt more like a loss to me. Although I had her back, I felt like I had lost something in return. I did not want to admit but it scared me when I saw the light dim in her usually bright eyes.It terrified me because, I was responsible for what she was going through. When I had taken her back from Dwayne's territory, she had passed out from the shock, pain and stress. She was out unconscious until night fall. I might have struck her too hard but not enough to leave a mark or bruise.I knew that she was going through some form of headache but was just proving tough. I hovered by her room listening for any sounds to see if whether she was sleeping or awake but I heard nothing. Her behavior had me worried. I was too pumped up to sleep so I stayed awake all through the night.I paced back and forth the hall till I could not take it anymore. I was curious about what she was up to so I gently pu
