Abby’s POV
He reached out to touch my face with the back of his hand, but I pushed him away and looked at him with hate in my eyes.
"Don't you dare…"
But he had so much patience that he grabbed my arm, dragged me to the table, and told me to eat.
"I won't eat. I'd rather die than eat here!"
"Do you really want to die? That's easy." He asked me this while looking into my eyes, and I lowered my head, unable to stare at him that long. I use the fork and the knife to cut the steak carefully while he watches me eat.
He was standing in front of me, arms folded, and said, "Good girl."
He put his finger on the table and slowly tapped the table while looking as I ate the meat. I looked up at him, and his eyes were still the same as before, cold.
I chewed softly and felt so uncomfortable that a man was watching me eating, "Please, stop staring at me,"
"Why not? I'm enjoying watching a woman eating meat in front of me. You can call me, Fabian."
He licked his lower lip with his sinful tongue, and I gasped and continued to eat the food until I finished.
“Can you take me home now?”
He shook his head, “No.”
The man with tattoos on his arms just walked in, and when I look at him again, my heart starts to beat faster out of fear. It seemed so strange to be in a place where serial killers live.
I tried to lower my head because looking at anyone in this place made me feel sick.
"Who is this little girl?" The man's voice, which was deep and scary, asked.
He came up to me and smelled my hair, saying, "That smells so good, like a fresh daisy." I bit my lower lip and tried to hold back my tears.
"Do you want to play with me, little bimbo?" The man asked in a nasty way, and I moved a little away from him.
But he gets mad and says, "Are you playing hard to get right now? I like it!"
“Xander, That’s enough…” A loud manly voice stopped the man named Xander pestering me.
"What are you stopping me from? This woman can be my reward for doing my job so well today!" Xander said then he gave me a soft massage on my shoulders, but I tried to pull away and stood up out of fear.
"Stay away from me."
He looked at me from head to toe, bit his lower lip, and asked Fabian, "So? What's the deal? Does this woman belong to me? I can bed her right now until she fucking bleeds and asked for my mercy to stop."
My mouth parted in shock while staring at the strange man, and I started to step back while sobbing. "N-No, you can't do this to me...I don't belong to anyone!"
I’m panicking because both of them are staring at me in awe, and Fabian said. “No, she belongs to me. You can leave now, Xander.”
Xander tilted his head and sighed, “Really? You are too possessive…she’s still a fucking slut.”
“Xander, don’t try my patience, LEAVE!”
The angry man rushed out of the Villa, and Fabian took a deep breath as he left. He looked at me and reached out to touch my hand, but I moved away and said, "Don't... I have no idea who or what you are! Right now, all I know is that I'm seeing a devil."
"Abby, how can you say that? I just stopped my brother from physically harming you. Would you like to bleed in bed? Don't you? or do you want me to take you to him?” He threatened me so badly that I could cry heavily this time.
“N-NO! All I want is to go home!” I begged him and held his hand tightly, “Please, I wanna go home, my family is waiting for me. I need to go home,”
“How many times have I told you, you are not going back to your life anymore?”
He pinned me against the wall and whispered, “Because you are going to marry me,”
“I’m not marrying a devil like you!” I snarled at him and his lips pursed tightly while staring at me.
“But you don’t have a choice…Abby, you stay here the fuck I want!”
Then he called his guard, “Take her upstairs and make sure she won’t escape or else I will kill all of you!”
**************
When I woke up early in the morning, I felt so strange because someone was watching me sleep, and it turned out to be Fabian. I let out a gasp of surprise and jumped out of bed.
"So how was your sleep?"
I ignored him as I got up and walked to the bathroom, and my heart was still beating fast from shock. Why does this man show up at this time of day?
He was still sitting on the bed when I came out of the bathroom. He looked at me and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
"Do I look better? Do you think I'm better now that you've had me for 24 hours?! I'm sure the police are looking for you right now, and I know that my family will put you in jail!"
"D'you think so?" He asked so calmly that it made me feel annoyed.
He mastered the impression of being so calm all the time. How did he pull that off? I took a deep breath and looked at him with my sharp eyes. Then I slapped his face twice.
He didn't even move or flinch. All he did was stare at me.
"Are you done? My turn." Fabian threw me on the bed and kissed me so roughly that I couldn't even breathe. His soft lips covered my lips, and I moaned in pain when he squeezed my breasts so hard.
“No!”
When he sees me crying, he stops kissing me and tells me in a firm voice. "Do you think that crying will stop me from kissing you? No, Abby!"
Then he leaned forward and kissed me again.
and again.
Abby’s POV I kicked his stomach so hard that it hurt him and made him cough. He said tenderly, "Bad girl." I gave him a stern look, and he stood up with a sigh. "I'm not done with you yet," he said and slammed the door. I sighed deeply, wiped my lips with the back of my hand, and cried all day. I don't know how many times I cried today, but this is too much. "I'm not going to eat," I said when the door opened, and someone brought me breakfast. "You need to eat because you're getting married to the mafia boss tomorrow!" The maid sounded strict, and her eyes flashed with frustration as she looked at me. "I won't get married to a devil like him! Please help me get out of this hellhole. I'll pay you any amount and give you my savings account..." I touched her hand as I begged her to help me. She looked at me with her head down and said, "It's no wonder Fabian likes you. You're young, pure, stunningly beautiful, and have an alluring eyes that would make any guy want you...." "Why wo
[The Next Day] “Signed it.” Things are moving so quickly in my life that I don't know what it will be like when I marry a Devil Mafia Boss like him. I was so worried about it, so I asked him for a favor: "Do me a favor and keep my family from going bankrupt." "I did it already..." "What?" I stare at him with confusion, and my mind starts to wonder if I'm too naive not to know what is really going on! "All you have to do is sign the contract and that's it." I signed it with a sad heart and flung the black pen on the table out of anger. I left the living room and went upstairs, where I shut the door to my room, laid down on the bed, closed my eyes, and took a deep breath to calm myself because I was on fire right now. I wanted to scream and hurt myself badly because it felt like my soul and body were sold to hell. When nighttime came, I took a shower to get rid of all the disappointment I felt about myself. When the door opened, my eyes widened because I was so nervous to see
*********Warning Explicit Content! Abby’s POV I was already wearing a dress when I woke up. I wrapped my arms around myself and walked downstairs on my tiptoes so no one could hear me, even though everyone else was half asleep. I went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator so I could get a glass of water. I feel better and calmer after I drink the water. Suddenly, Someone turned on the lights, and I saw five guns aimed at me. I let out a soft sigh and opened my eyes wide. I put up my shaking hands, and when they saw it was just me, I could see the frustrated look on their faces. Then Fabian came, and they moved aside for him. My heart starts to beat like I've seen a hero. "It's okay," he said, and his soft voice put me at ease. He also told his guards to leave us alone. “What are you doing at this hour? It's 3 am…” He said as he leaned forward to look at my nervous face. “You look so pale, are you alright?” "No, I saw five guns pointed at me and ready to blow my head off.
Abby’s POV I awoke with a severe headache, and my eyes were puffy from sobbing the day before. I feel as though my body has betrayed my mind by desiring to be touched and kissed by him. My parents did not raise me to be Fabian's prey, as it was not who I was. I take a deep breath because I will try to get out of this hell place even if it takes me every day to fail, but at least I tried. Then, when I'm ready to leave, I grab the only dress left in the closet. It's a white minidress, and I bite my lower lip as I try to wear it because it's so uncomfortable. Then, when I opened my door and looked around, I didn't see anyone. I took a step forward while tiptoeing down the stairs and when I got to the front doorstep. A guard yelled at me, "Hey! Where are you going?!" But I didn't listen to him, and I tried to open the front door, which luckily wasn't locked. Then I took one more step through the gate and heard Fabian's loud voice on the front door. I looked at him with scared eyes an
Abby’s POV "I will never come back to you again!" I yelled at him while crying and then walked away from him. My eyes are already swollen from sobbing as a result of the agony and misery that has been inflicted upon me. "Stop running away from me, Abby!" He spoke gently, yet his voice was so compelling that it could make me stop walking, and I looked at him with a fierce and penetrating gaze. "Do you know why I always try to avoid you? It's because I don't even know you." I answered him in a calm voice, and when I didn't hear anything back, I just turned around and got in a taxi to go somewhere far away from him. I took a deep breath and reached for my purse to find my credit card to pay for the taxi. When I got to the place where I used to live when I was young, I realized that this is where I tried to save all my money for a small apartment when I was in college, and now I'm here. I'm back in this place again. I opened the door to the old apartment with the keys in my purse and
Abby’s POV "Well, I don't feel special just because I'm different..." I tapped furiously on the table with my hand. "Your family doesn't want you, Abby. I'm now your family, so you're my wife, and you signed the contract. remember?!" Then I looked into his eyes, which were as cold as ice and as deep as my soul. "What do you want me to do? What am I supposed to do as your wife then?!" "Do whatever you can to make me happy." “I’m not a clown!” I yelled at him. "No, you're not a clown but my wife. It's a responsibility of yours to please me." Then he leaned over to kiss my forehead, slammed the door, and left me in the spacious dark room. *********** I got out of bed and made an effort to investigate the goings-on in this mysterious mansion. I have no idea what the Mafia is involved in, but in my head, they are just as nasty as any other criminal, out to get rich quickly and kill anyone who stands in their way. I bring my phone along and take pictures all over the mansion. Th
Abby’s POV When his hand squeezed the delicate part of my body, it made me feel nervous, so I took a deep breath and slapped his handsome face. I'm not happy with what he's doing to me because his hot kisses make me lose control of my body. "Why did you slap me, woman?!" He asked while rubbing the side of his face, then grabbed my face and playfully kissed me. I've been trying to get away from him, but I can't. He grabbed my lips and sucked me like there wasn't going to be another day. I took a breath between those kisses that almost killed me, and when he was done, I looked at his face. Then he said while panting, "Take off your undies...I want to touch your core..." "Huh?" I asked with wide eyes. "Don't you understand what I'm saying? Or do I need to say it again?!" He asked while looking at my face so I lowered my head and slowly took off my lace underwear. Then he put his finger inside my femininity, which made me gasp and look at him in shock. My face was red, and I could
Abby’s POV "Hey, wake up." He touched the side of my face while staring at me intently. I sighed and looked around. It was a beautiful modern castle. There was a line of maids waiting to greet Fabian. "Is this your home?" I take a deep breath. "My parents' place." He told me, and then he opened the door for me. Then we walked to the aisle, and I was so nervous because those maids were staring at me. They didn't look like regular maids at all. I looked over at Fabian, who was standing next to me. He seems so calm, and his eyes are straight on the front door of the modern castle. When the big door opened, his parents and a few other people were there to greet us. "Oh, is this the sweetheart babe you were telling me about?" The woman in her mid-50s looked at me and walked over to hug me. I was nervous about meeting new people, but this woman seemed so friendly and warm. "Hey, you must be Abby Miller?" She asked. "Hi, Nice to meet you." I greeted her with a kind smile even though
Santiago’s POVAfter his brothers left the Villa, I carried her to the bedroom. In the midst of my tight embrace, I blurted out, "Who was that guy?" She laughed at me and said, "Uh, I love putting Chris Evans pictures in my old room. I even told my brothers that he was my boyfriend." It turned her face red as she tried to explain it to me, and I could see the little girl talking about her crush right before me. "I like Captain America..." I nodded my head and said, “I thought you met someone like me…” She gazed at me, “Well, you are more handsome than him. I like you more….” Those words made me hold my breath. I wasn't ready to hear that yet, but she grabbed my arm, and I leaned forward to look her in the eyes. "I thought I was going to die," she said with a smile. Then she paused and said, "But if I really am going to die, I have to tell you how much I like you before it's too late." I caressed the side of her cheeks and smiled at her warmly, “I like you too.” I kissed her li
Santiago’s POVI no longer see the smile that Beatrice always gave me whenever she saw me; she was scared for her life. It's all my fault; I make a woman's life dull and unhappy. I should not have asked her to marry me just to get what I wanted.The thought of her driving me insane, and here she is, in the operating room, having the bullet removed from her abdomen. I hold my breath every time the operating room door opens. Then, all of a sudden, a doctor walks up to me and says, "We did everything we could, but she didn't make it. I am sorry." My heart sank when I realized the woman who had brought so much joy into my life had already passed away! Jeric gave me a sighing look and said, "I'm sorry for your loss." Then I closed my eyes and asked the doctor, "Are you sure about that?!" "I'm sorry, your mother didn't make it—" he looked at me. I smacked him in the face and told him, "You're fu*king wrong! How could you say that?" "I'm the son, not him!" the man yelled at the Doctor.
Beatrice’s POV“Wait for me there! I’m on my way! F*ck!” He cursed silently after the call.At every turn, I felt uneasy because someone had just placed a camera around the house. The enemy will use it against Santiago because it could cause a lot of trouble. Everything and everyone around him wants him to die or fail. It's hard for me to think that there are people in this world who exist solely to do something bad just to get what they want!Then I heard two vans pulling up to the Villa. One of them parked outside the gate, and the other van went inside. The driver got out to look for me. I ran to them immediately and said, "What's happening?" The man thoroughly examined me before saying, "Alright, Miss Beatrice, you must go outside." "Why? What's going on?" "The hidden camera you saw in the kitchen wasn't just a hidden camera; they wired a bomb to it!" the man said as he dragged me out the door. Then he looked around and looked for some people inside and I immediately remembere
Beatrice’s POVUp until he tripped and fell onto the bed next to me, he was lying on top of me, and my hands were resting on his chest. The way we looked at each other made it seem like he was trying to diagnose my problems, but I was perfectly OK. I pushed him away, and he rolled over next to me. He sighed deeply and stared blankly at the ceiling. "I think you need to rest in your own bed instead of mine," I told him. When he heard that, he got up and left without speaking with me. I sighed as I thought about what was wrong with him again! I got up early the following day and tried to decide what I would do today. "Good morning, ma'am," the kitchen maid greeted me. "Morning." "Sir Santiago has prepared breakfast for you, and it has been placed in the microwave; all you need to do is heat it up." She smiled at me.I nodded in agreement, wondering why he needed to treat me this way. This is something I can do myself. But the maid said, "Ma'am Bea, he told me he won't be home ton
Beatrice’s POVAs I look at him walk away, I hold my breath. He then waited for me in the car until I was done thinking about everything. Damn! From now on, I have no other option except to continue working for him until the contract is finished. "How could I marry such a cruel man? Mafias are bad, that's true. They break the law and do bad things because they want power as well as wealth. Indeed, I am right." I sucked in my breath because I thought I was so stupid for talking to myself about this!While my mind was racing with thoughts, I walked down the hall and saw that his guards were waiting for me outside. They opened the van door for me and then slid it shut. Santiago's driver got into the car and drove off. Santiago was still silent as I looked across at him. Something must be done because I don't know what to say to him. It made me feel like I was crossing a thin line to be with him. Even though he was nice, I'm still not sure if I should be careful around him. Although h
Beatrice’s POVHe found my question so funny that he was guffawing across the room. Then I glared at him angrily and said, “Well, that wasn’t funny.” "Beatrice, I like you as a friend and a good secretary and also as a good pretending wife and nothing more," Santiago remarked. It makes my heart skip a beat. Does he always have to hurt me by being honest with me?After that, I gathered my arms over my chest, raised my eyes to meet his, and said, "Yes, of course." I then returned to my room to grab a dress from the wardrobe to prepare for our evening supper. After settling on a white dress that seemed both understated and sophisticated, I accessorized with black heels and a matching white handbag. Afterward, I applied a touch of blush to my cheeks and a swipe of red lipstick. Upon opening the door, I found him waiting outside, asking, "Are you ready?" “I’m more than ready, Santiago.” He smiled at me, “I like that attitude of yours.” I answered sarcastically, “Oh, me too!” Then h
Beatrice’s POVTWENTY-FOUR HOURS LATER,It's something I never thought would happen. I was marrying someone I didn't know I'd be with. It was my boss, and I found his expression quite flattering; it was almost as if he was trying to tell me something about his feelings for me.Damn! I like him so much that I have to agree to his proposal! In the presence of an overwhelming number of strangers, I clutch the flower firmly in my fingers and fix my gaze on him. He smiled back at me after I smiled at him. "You may now kiss the bride," the priest said. He slowly lifted the veil above my head, and as he looked me in the eyes, he smiled broadly. Next, he lowered his head to plant a kiss on my lips, completely silent. When his lips touched mine, I closed my eyes and stood on my toes as he kissed me deeper. Following that, there was a resounding applause and enthusiastic cheers. As Santiago led me down the aisle, I saw my two younger brothers in the crowd. They looked so proud of me that I
Beatrice’s POV"Are you asking me to marry you? Are you----Are you drunk?" I asked him in a soft voice while looking at him blankly. I don't understand why he would pose such a question to me. This time around, he sounds so desperate.He looked at me with thin lips and then got down on one knee to put the ring on my finger. Everyone in the street looked at us as the center of attention. This time, I couldn't believe that my boss was going to ask me to marry him, and he's not even my boyfriend! What the hell is going on? I asked myself while my heart was pounding like a crazy heart beat. Gosh! This is wild. But he already put the ring on my finger and he didn’t even wait for my answer. “Let’s go.” I glared at him, “I didn’t say yes to you yet!” "But you need to." He took my hand and led me back to his car. "Hey! Not everything that you can get! You can't take that easy on me!" I yelled at him. "I understand that you're not like that. What I really want you to know is that I'm n
Santiago’s POVIt's been over five hours, but I still can't fall asleep because I keep thinking about how many enemies I have in this organization. Despite their friendly demeanor, they all plotted my downfall. I looked at the clock and saw it was three o'clock in the morning. What the heck? I have not yet gone to sleep. I got up, stretched my arms, and let out a soft yawn. I went down the quiet hallway and opened the door to Beatrice's room. She was already asleep. She was sound asleep in my bed, and her face looked like the face of an angel. When I thought about how I kissed her lips the other day, it made me smile softly. That made me feel a little happy, and I forgot how different my world was from hers. I closed the door and went to the couch to close my eyes for a bit. Then, out of nowhere, I awoke with another headache, and a girl was standing before my eyes. She sported a pair of shorts and a white blouse.She smiled and gave me the medicine and a glass of water. "Good morn
