Mafia's True Queen Chapter Seventeen.
Jaselle's POVI remember while I was still back home in my apartment, each day crawls by as slowly as possible because all I did was lay in my sofa I almost got myself glued to doing absolutely nothing asides sulking and having leftovers for dinner but here in this glorified prison, time seemed to work differently.Asides spending my day wandering around and thinking of ways to escape, I did nothing else but the time ticked by so fast that it was already the next morning since I last saw the Ogre in human flesh.I woke up barely three minutes ago to a long train of people crowded in my room and that was creepy as hell.At first, I thought I was in some kind of trance that had everyone watching me but I soon realized they're the team that's supposed to 'Fix me' I still couldn't believe he sees me as a disgrace and thinks I need fixing but I had settled to go with the flow.Whatever dumb dinner party it is we're to attend might just be my one chance at fleeing away from him like I badl

Jaselle's POVThe drive down to wherever the hell it is we were going most definitely has to be the most awkward car rides I've ever been in.Through out the entire half and hour road trip, not a word was to be heard from anyone.And although I wasn't crazy enough to jump outta a moving vehicle, He didn't even risk letting me have the chance because he had me sandwiched between himself and Gustavo?I'm not really sure what his name is but I couldn't care less.After tonight, I'll be free from their crazy mouse trap and I'll be on the next flight home.Mr Moretti and his puppets can kiss my ass goodbye.We soon arrived at the venue that already was flooded with a number of cars I believe must belong to the rest of the invited guests and I pulled myself out after The ogre had stepped out first.I wanted to make a move towards the entrance like I saw a group of people doing but he shot out his hand and grabbed me by the arm almost too roughly then pulled me back to himself while I raised

Jaselle's P O VI knew I was really screwed.And while I remained in his arms silently as he swirled me in rhythm with the soft melodious sound everyone could hear, I swallowed hard more times than I could recall in fear for what is to befall me."There will be consequences" he warned before we got in here and in my attempt at being 'smart' I went ahead and did the one thing he clearly warned me against.I should have found peace in his silence but I only further more felt threatened by it.At this point, I cared less about my freedom and more for my life.I don't remember being this obedient the whole of my life. When he ordered me to sit, I did So quickly like my life depended on it.Well, who am I kidding? my life does depend on it. I just couldn't let myself get me in any more trouble with him at this point. if he wants me to sit, I'll have my ass glued to the goddamn chair till he says otherwise.Perhaps one way to atone for my sin is doing as he says for the rest of the night.

Jaselle's P O VI hurried into my room should incase he changes his mind about letting me 'get some rest'It all seemed too good to be true so I paced around the room for a good one hour dreading the moment he would return and accord me whatever punishment as he deems fit but he never showed up.I even poked my head out my door every now and then to find traces of him but he was nowhere within sight.Did he really decide to let me go?Why would he do that?Is that so I could loosen up to him and not see him for the monster he really is?Well, he's in for a big surprise. I Jaselle, can never be so easily decieved.Half an hour later, I had convinced myself I was no longer disturbed about him nor scared of the ogre like I was during our drive back home but I felt horrified with grave fear where I sat by the edge of the bed when the door to the room suddenly bursted open.I was met with relief the same minute when my eyes shot towards the door and made known to me it wasn't who I though

Adriano's P O VWhile I swayed her around on the dance floor, I could feel her tremble in my arms and I loved it.I loved the fear I could see in her eyes because it only meant she wouldn't dare attempt anything funny for the rest of the evening and I was right.I thought I would also appreciate her silence but I've grown so used to her rebellious behavior that I started to find her silence a little too strange and also slightly bothersome.During the drive back home, I stole a few glances at her and the whole time, she remained doing just one thing and that was rubbing her fingers together with her head hung low and unable to meet my gaze just as she also couldn't ever since she pulled that silly stunt of hers that literally caused me to roll my eyes.What exactly did her peanut sized brain expect will be the outcome of that nonsense? Tsk.I knew her obedience was too good to be true when she outrightly put up a scene when we got home and she refused stepping out from the car and alt
Mafia's True Queen Chapter Twenty Two.
Jaselle's P O VI could not believe my eyes the entire time but it was really happening right in front of my very eyes.Although his face held a grudge and he continuously muttered inaudibly, a truck load of most likely curse words in a foreign language, he still held my injured foot in his hand and carefully wrapped it with some sorta bandage thingy I was too busy looking at his face In pure bewilderment to pay any attention to."You should remain in bed for now. Alessia would be with you in the morning to tend to your needs" he finally spoke to me in a stern voice that sounded more like a warning that dared me to take a single step out of the bed away from how he'd laid me In to rest.I was still too shocked to manage a response nor even so much as nod my head at him because let's be honest y'all, doesn't this seem a little too strange?I swear I won't be surprised if I wake up right now and realize this is all a dream.For what I know, I've been asleep since I returned from that st

Jaselle's P O VBright and early the next morning, Alessia barged in to meet me a crazy ass mess on my bed. I had managed to change into a comfy set of Clothings after my deal with Adriano last night and they were nothing matching at all.The top was an orange colored almost too small shirt with overly bright green polka dots with an illegible font up front with a word that says something I totally have no idea about and the bottoms was a loose pink pant with coloured circles on either one of my butt cheeks and don't get me started about the state of my hair and what got me the most disturbed about my appearance was that I couldn't tell for sure but I could almost swear I had drool down one side of my cheek and I couldn't stop furiously cleaning my face with the back of my hand when Alessia's presence pulled me out of bed. For someone who was scared as shit last night, I sure had a pretty peaceful sleep. Infact, I don't remember sleeping this soundly in days since I got here.It's

Adriano's P O V In the end, it turned out my few seconds of being 'Mr nice guy' prooved really effective. Not only did she not snap at me through out our time of being together in her room, she also by herself, willingly promised to Stay on the condition that no harm comes to her. Well, harming her was never a part of the plan but she had always prooved stubborn and she misses not a single chance to get me pissed off always but with the new turn of events, I believe we could work just fine with this Deal. I finally got in my room late that night and eased a loud sigh when my back finally came in contact with the bed. For someone who had been up and about the entire day, a little relaxation was all it took me to drift off to sleep. It wasn't long afterwards and I was still asleep but I felt a person's weight sink down on my bed and I immediately opened my eyes to My wife's face staring down at me. For the first few seconds, my heart swelled but not to

Jaselle's P O VI told myself I should get some sleep but how exactly am I supposed to bring myself to sleep after having the craziest night ever? I kept telling myself this can't be happening and that when my dream builders are done playing games with me, I'm going to open my eyes to Alessia almost shoving breakfast down my throat like she usually does so innocently. But no, I opened my eyes every minute after sliding my lids down to sleep and I still found myself in the exact same place I had been the entire night staring wide eyed at the makeshift roof and the mirror that hung oddly adjacent to where the bed was placed. After hours of tossing and unable to find sleep, I found myself climbing down from the bed unsure of what exactly I was about to do but I couldn't keep my restless self in one place for too long. I carefully placed my feet on the floor after checking the carpet with just my biggest toe expecting a booby trap reaction or screaming alarms but when none of my imagin

Adriano's P O V I remained standing in the empty room that once housed Jaselle and I was fuming. My knuckles looked pale white from how firmly I balled my fists together and the ache I felt from the fresh bruise I had just secured from punching a part of the wall irritated me further. I felt like I was suffocating and at the same time, the annoyance was starting to seep through my veins and they were getting into my bloodstream because I could feel my blood starting to boil with so much pressure. "Boss?" Gustavo called from the door behind me and I turned at him sharply like a raging bull. I'm pretty sure my eyes were blood red and all that was left to complete the look was smoke coming out my ears and nostrils. "WHERE THE HELL IS SHE???" I Roared at him and never in my life have I seen him so distressed and Alessia who I just noticed beside him looked like she was going to pass out any moment now. Well, if I don't find Jaselle and that too immediately, I'm going to rage hell on

Jaselle's P O V"Freddy, what the hell is going on here?" Sofia questioned and I tried to convince myself she didn't sound like me due to her noticeable accent but in reality, her voice sounded just as pitchy as mine does. The only difference asides the accent is that she talks calmly and firmly while I talk so fast that if you aren't actually paying full attention, you would almost think I'm cooking up a verse for a local rap battle. "I'm wondering so myself" came Freddy's response without blinking his eyes even once. "Who are you and why are you out in the woods so late at night??" The second man asked and only then did I remember he was standing behind me all along.I tried to form words but nothing came out from my mouth.My lips moved in attempt to form a speech but nothing was to be heard. My gaze remained intently fixed on Sofia while a thousand questions ran through my mind."Wait, aren't you supposed to be.......... I don't know....... Dead?" I questioned but immediately r

Jaselle's P O VWith conflicted emotions in my already pounding chest, I ran down deeper into the dark, with my pace increasing anytime I thought I heard a gunshot or an animal Howl at me which I hope are just a sick part of my imagination, because imagine escaping Adriano's clutch to get eaten by a wild animal. The Horrific Tragedy! My legs were starting to grow weary of running but I was too scared to stop. I also felt a sting of regret about not being able to snatch something out of the fridge while I had the chance. My stomach growled in response while my memory flashed back to the fat Sausage roll I nearly grabbed out of the fridge before I realized my golden opportunity. My itchy outfit choice I found tolerable a while back wasn't as tolerable anymore and since my top was so short that it couldn't meet the band of my pants, I had to hold my hand over my exposed belly to block the harsh breeze from making any further impact. I swear I could hear voices all around me and In my

Adriano's P O VDawn soon fell upon us and I didn't give a care in the world to my sunken eyes and evident eye bags. Getting to the root of what had been in my mind the entire night was the only thing that mattered to me and that was evident in my heavy steps down the stairs. I was so eager to get to the root of the matter that I didn't even pause to greet Jaselle's door with a single glance like I did every morning while on my way down the stairs and in no time, I was out the house and I was greeted by a number of my men that I wasn't exactly interested in at the moment. Where the hell is Gustavo??? He should have been here waiting for me as planned!I started to itch with annoyance as it occurred to me that Gustavo's pace wasn't in any way matching the urgency to get down to the Grill and hold whosoever I happen to meet there at a chokehold. "John is it?" I questioned mindlessly to the next man that walked past me with a curt bow and his immediate response was a firm Nod. "Go f
Mafia's True Queen Chapter Thirty-Four.
Adriano's P O VI had always watched the sunrise almost every day for many years because it's like when I go to sleep, I'm never really asleep but just there in bed, switched off mind and eyes wide open through out the dark hours of the night and so watching the sunrise wasn't anything special to me as it had become a normal thing but this morning was different. I spent the remaining hours of the night longing for daylight after my session with the prisoners I had thrown in the cell. After two hours of grilling and torture, the youngest and clearly the most inexperienced of them all chose the smart option which was to give me the information I needed to hear. The others gasped at his betrayal and gave him looks that meant he was choosing the wrong path but the young lad obviously had his mind made up because he paid their silent reproach no attention and yet swore to speak the truth. I didn't want the judgemental glares from his accomplices cause him to withold any necessary piece

Adriano's P O VThe sneak attack wasn't expected as we weren't given a prior warning nor hint. I mean, that's why it's called a sneak attack am I right? But something about the whole thing made me feel full of myself once again. It was beginning to get too idle around here these past many days and then, boom! just like that I get some action thrown my way without even asking for it. I was mostly thrilled when the man with the one wounded knee before me started to prove stubborn in his attempt at hoarding information I would be more than thrilled to extract from his insides if I have to. I mean, where's the fun if he tells me right away? That's the thing with blabbermouths, they are such a killJoy. My phone started to buzz again in the pocket of my pants and I didn't need to glance at it to figure out who was calling. "Yes Carlo, Hit me" I answered into the phone after the second ring. "We have the mansion surrounded and I have looked around, it seems no one got anywhere near her
Mafia's True Queen Chapter Thirty-Two.
Adriano's P O V.The heavy and bitter taste of regret lingered in my throat the entire afternoon and all I did was brush through my hair in frustration with my fingers as I paced about my office unsure of how best to eliminate the strong emotion. I really shouldn't feel this way. She called it upon herself when she dared to slap me. Not a soul has ever had the effrontery nor the nerve to even so much as think about it. Yet, she did it without hesitation. I should be pissed! I should have her severely punished! but whenever I feel anger stirring up inside of me, I get reminded of the weak look in her eyes when I gripped her throat. Her eyes silently pleaded for mercy but I was too adamant to listen and now it haunts me. I convinced myself if she didn't have my wife's face, I wouldn't feel a bit remorse. Not even in the slightest. Thanks to that face of hers, she gets away with a lot of things around here. "Boss?" I heard a voice call from right inside my office and my head sn
Mafia's True Queen Chapter Thirty-One.
Jaselle's P O V.While I was expecting he apologizes to me and promise to set me on the next plane home, I never realized how dangerously close to each other we both were. So close that whenever I drew in a breathe, it was clouded with his intoxicating scent. In all my days of hating him, I never expected us to be in such a position after having our very first simple conversation that didn't involve hate and disgust amongst all other explosive emotions that were very much mutual. He still remained silent and I had no idea what was going on in his head neither could I stop my eyes from looking at his side view like a creep. At least the first time, I was trying to be discreet about it. But right now, I'm fully staring! His jet black hair seemed to be as soft as wet wool and the way it curled all over his head was an interesting sight to behold. Girl, how have I never paid this much attention to him before now??"Maybe because it's because you've only ever wanted to smack him in t
