Jaselle's P O V

I 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 VUhh.... What is he doing? Why is he charging towards Alessia with that much rage? She wasn't the one on the tree, it was me! "Hey! Leave her alone and Face me!" I called out from behind but he paid me not even the slightest attention. It was almost as though he didn't hear me but I know he did hear me but he chose to ignore me and you wanna know why? It's because he's a blockhead. An overbearing blockhead. That's exactly what he is. Alessia looked strikingly pale and she looked like she was gonna pass out any minute now and I don't blame her at all. Any one in her position right now would feel the same way. Have you ever had an angry bull charging towards you and all you could do is remain frozen in a spot and fear for your life?Well, that's the case of Alessia right now.And if I don't do something quick, she might actually get run-over by this Mad bull. "Stop it!" I yelled as I ran towards him."Please stop" I corrected after a careful thought that told me

    Jaselle's P O VIt's been a week.A whole long week and guess what I've been doing through out?Abso-Fucking-lutely Nothing!This really can be compared to living in a cave except, I eat king fit meals and drink the most expensive assorted wines and I'm not butt ass naked nor do I wear leaves or skin but the Most expensive of dresses. Asides that, I feel like I live in a decorated cave because I'm really bored as shit. At this point, I would only get mad reading any of these books again because the whole excitement is completely gone and since I have this sick ideology of slowly blending in by having friendly conversations with anyone in this household, I mostly locked up myself In my room so I could be reminded I'm nothing but a prisoner who is only hear by coercion and also, I didn't want to run into Adriano. The boredom and living in solitude might actually make me completely loose my mind or worse, I don't only loose my sense of reasoning but become like one of the thick forest

    Jaselle's P O V Curiosity kills the cat most people do say and I've always seen that as a really dumb thing to say till I found myself in my present situation.I now stood like a little theif caught red handed with the face of death fuming at me from the doorway which led to the room my curious self led me into entering without any restraint knowing fully well that this place is actually out of bounds to anyone at all but the little explorer in me gained the upper hand and led me to commit what seems to be an unforgivable sin.I could tell with that look in his eyes.But wait, Isn't he supposedly away on a trip? Why the hell is he here right now killing me a thousand and one times with just his eyes???Soon after Alessia had told me the news about Adriano's absence, I was so delighted and silly me, I concluded it was gonna be my golden escape moment but yeah, he's not as stupid as I thought. I stepped out and there were twice the normal number of men on guard the entire building. If

    Adriano's P O VI wasn't in any way comfortable with the dealings and proceedings from my club on the southern part of the continent. Not only were there several loop holes in the monthly reports, I couldn't tolerate anyone trying to outsmart me. Especially not a road side cunt that didn't hold as much significance as the extra button on the sleeve of my least favorite shirt. On the first day of the week, I decided to pay him an unexpected visit and the horror in his eyes when he saw me was so satisfying that I wished I could have that moment on replay. He looked so terrified of me as he should and that was all it took to confirm his wrong doings.One thing I've discovered from the nature of my dealings is this one fact; The guilty are always afraid. And as for me, I could smell fear even from a mile away.I was accompanied by Gustavo and two other men and left Carlo in charge of my household and the day after our arrival, I decided to pay the Cunt a little surprise visit in his sm

    Jaselle's P O VI could never understand his reaction nor forgive his outburst back there. I felt like a kid being scolded at, and all of that for what? One stupid empty glass?I hate him.so much!He made me feel terrible back there and I shouldn't really be surprised because that's what monsters like him do. Time ticked by and My annoyance should have left me by now but instead, it caused a strong feeling in me that caused me to tear up and when I got overwhelmed by it, I buried my face in my pillow and let out those muffled sobs while my pillow absorbed the salty wetness that flowed freely out of my eyes. Exhaustion doesn't seem like a suitable word to describe how I feel. I was more than exhausted of everything and most especially, this shitty life I am compelled to live without a choice. I cried my eyes out the entire afternoon and in that same position face down on my bed, I drifted off to sleep and didn't move an inch till what felt to be several hours later. Although it

I couldn't manage a speech nor move towards my bed that magically didn't look as disorganized as it was before I left the room a little while back but I soon snapped out from it all and regained my full consciousness when I heard The toilet flush.Who could be in there?I couldn't help but feel extremely frightened only just from the thought that it could be Adriano. I knew he couldn't possibly be in there but the thought of it alone sent cold chills down my spine.Chills that adviced me to flee before he emerges out from behind that door but I remained rooted to my spot like a helpless little tree Stuck in the ground. The little happy feet I could hear emerging from behind the closed door was another thing to Clearly tell me it couldn't possibly be him but I still remained in my frightened and sweaty state till Alessia appeare

    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

    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.

    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

    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
