My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. SOLD 1
TAYLOR MACKENZIEThe days of my life had turned into a cold nightmare, I could still remember the crash, the ruin, everything. The day I lost my father to a terrible accident. My name is Taylor Mackenzie, the daughter to the richest man in Italy, and the strongest mafia leader, Abraham Mackenzie. My grandfather was a wealthy man and controlled a great empire. My father took after him and also developed an empire so great. I grew out of wealth and had a beautiful family. However, everything started breaking apart when a woman showed up with a young boy just my age then. She claimed she had an affair with my father and the boy was the result of it. Father didn't deny it so he wanted to pay them off but she refused to leave, she refused to be paid off and wanted a place in our lives. Mom had a weak heart and suffered a heart attack. Immediately Mom died, dad brought the lady and her son in after a DNA test was carried out, I could remember Jason then, he used to be quiet, innocent but

TAYLOR MACKENZIEThe car ride felt like an eternity for me. I had controlled my bleeding nose and was quiet in the confined space. It wasn't a new thing as Jason and his mother locked me up on several occasions. I felt the car halt to a stop. The truck was opened and the light hit my eyes that I squinted. "You're riding with us," was all I heard before I was dragged from the trunk and pushed into the backseat where Donovan sat. He smiled on seeing me. "You look shitty," he threw a white handkerchief towards me. "Clean all those blood." "What do you want from me?" I asked."I said, clean the fucking blood," he repeated."So what? Are you going to kill me?" I asked defiantly.Suddenly, he grabbed my neck pushing me backwards and slamming my head against the car window. A shout escaped my lips before he slammed his strong palm against it, sealing both my nose."When I talk, you listen, you know why? Because you're my whore and I'mma fucking kill and dispose your carcass where not eve

TAYLOR MACKENZIE"Oh no," I whispered. Emy dropped the tray of steaming food she held on the table and walked back to the kitchen, totally ignoring me. Tears filled my eyes, this was bad. I hurriedly knelt down, parking the glass particles when I got cut. "Oh my God!" I heard the girl exclaim and stand to her feet, her eyes were wide with concern as she immediately reached out to me, her voice soft and kind. "Are you alright?" she asked gently, her hand grasping my trembling fingers."I..I.." I stammered and looked at Mr. Donovan who's stern expression remained unmoved as he regarded me with cold detachment. "Careless," he muttered under his breath, his disapproval palpable. "As always.""I'm sorry, I... I'm sorry," I begged, wondering what he'd do to me next. The girl helped me up, a soft smile playing on her lips. "It was an accident, we all saw it. I'm Olivia by the way. That's my brother, Diego," she introduced but since I was aware the Diego of a guy had been staring at me sin

DIEGO SALVATOREI sat by the poolside, a tumbler of whiskey in hand, and my gaze fixed on the rippling water. I thought of how Donovan acted with that servant girl, and wondered if staying back for her sake was worth it. I've killed some people in my life, assholes who messed up with me, but I decided to stay so my so called father wouldn't harm a good for nothing girl. Someone I didn't even know about. I wouldn't lie, I felt a stink when Donovan struck her. I mean, she's a girl, a woman for christ's sake and he shouldn't have hurt her, including the bruises she had on her face and body. Who was this girl Donovan had under him, and why was I against the idea of she being involved in his dirty games.I gulped down a mouth full of whiskey, I was over thinking things. Donovan and I had separate lives and if there's something we promised each other, it's to not interfere in the other person's arrangement. I pulled out a cigarette, and lighted it up. Just as I smoked it peacefully, the

TAYLOR MACKENZIEI increased my pace to my room, I didn't just share a kiss with Diego, what was I thinking? It definitely wasn't a deliberate act, it was an accident. I slammed the door to my room shut, sat on the ground and hugged my legs. What did I just do? I hope he understood it was a mistake, I just wanted to thank him for saving my life, the falling into the pool to see his reaction just came up and wasn't part of my plan. I was going to swim out when I saw him dive in, he came to get me, seems like the Salvatore children were going to be my liberation, I just needed to be on their good side all the time. I already got Olivia and soon I'll get Diego. The next morning, I woke up to myself sleeping on the ground. I must have forgotten myself while thinking and slept on the ground. I stood up and headed to the bathroom. When I was out, I was informed by Emy that Donovan has gone out for an emergency meetup, I was grateful he was gone, the man gave me the scare of my life."Tak

DIEGO SALVATOREWhen I said I'd give Taylor something to think about, I didn't imagine myself getting carried away by her smell, and her taste. It all started when I kissed her, her lips in my mouth tasted different, her tits standing and pressing against my chest almost turned me into a madman. However, when it was about getting fun and interesting, I felt something inbetween her legs, something really interesting. I felt her hymen with my fingers.I’m pretty sure I don’t give a fuck about virgins, they are no fun. Amateurs, hassles, nuisance and generally not good in bed. However, Taylor although being a virgin, captured my attention. This was so going out of hand. I trudged into my study, I wouldn't think about Taylor now, she's a story for later. I sank into my leather chair and stared at the sleek polished machine in the name of a laptop waiting on my desk.I opened it and was greeted by the usual cascade of notifications. One message, however, stood out starkly in my inbox:

TAYLOR MACKENZIEDiego guided me gently to my room, his steps slow and deliberate. Once inside, he helped me sit on the edge of the bed. “Are you okay?” he asked.I nodded, but tears began to well up in my eyes."I'm fine, I mean... How can I not be? This is my life, it is literally, so I have to be fine.""Taylor-""I'm fine, Diego. I'm-" I broke down, sobbing uncontrollably. Diego on the other hand just stood by, his hands clenched into fists at his sides as he watched me with a stoic expression. Why was he just there, staring at me like I was the first person he's seen crying. I sniffed, continuously stealing glances at him severally, he looked like he was waiting for me to be done before he can say whatever he wanted to say."What are you doing?" I asked between tears."What am I doing?" He asked. I lowered my gaze. "Do you have to be so heartless?" I asked."Elaborate." I sniffed again, glancing up at him through my tears. “Why are you just staring at me?” I asked, my voice b
Last Updated : 2024-11-18My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. MEMORIAL SERVICE 8
DIEGO SALVATOREThe somber mood of the memorial service of my mother hung heavy in the air. I stood by the grave, flanked on my right by Olivia and the other side by Donovan.This wasn't my kind of thing, the hushed words and quiet tears, this wasn't a place I would love to be. However, she was mother, Isabella Salvatore. She died in a car accident five years ago and although the authorities said it was an accident, I knew it wasn't one. I was still on her case, when I find the entity responsible for the accident then I can have peace. I glanced at Donovan, acting so righteous like he played the role of a good husband. A more reasonable reason I hated funerals, it was filled with people with fake personalities, pretenders who deep inside would pass a knife through you if you woke up tomorrow. Olivia touched me, I'm sure she noticed how I glared at Donovan. "You don't want to create a scene." "Believe me, I wish I could." She gave a smile. "Thanks for coming, it means alot." I re

TAYLOR MACKENZIEIt was now evening after I locked myself in my room due to the attitude Mark showed me. I wouldn't lie, I was angry he yelled at me, he was an asshole for doing that. My stomach rumbled and I knew it was time to eat. I inhaled deeply and decided to open the door. However, before I could, it opened, displaying Mark, standing by the entrance. I rolled my eyes, I would have argued that I locked it but who was I kidding, Mark would surely have the keys to everywhere and everything, my life included. "What?""Dinner," he answered, showing me the covered food in the tray he carried."I'll pass," I made to close the door but he blocked it with his legs."Your stomach says otherwise, I could hear it from outside."I stared at him. "My problem.""Is that so?" He asked and opened the covered food. That was it, I lost my mind."Screw you!" I grabbed the food from him and rushed inside my room, eating like my life depended on it. Mark entered the room and closed the door before

TAYLOR MACKENZIEMark’s voice was steady but lacked conviction. "It’s nothing, Mayor."Mayor’s face immediately twisted into a scowl. Without a word, he crossed the room and slapped Mark hard across the face. The sound echoed sharply through the room. My heart missed a beat at the impact but Mark just stood, unmoved with his head still bent. "Why do you sound so soft?" he growled."I apologize, I was just getting Miss Taylor ready for the day," he answered."Really? And why are you just doing that now, what happened to earlier."Earlier? What did he mean. I looked at the clock and saw it was already twelve. Shit, Make didn't wake me up early, he gave me enough time to sleep. Screw this, he didn't deserve to he beaten by Mayor, I had to do something. "My apologies.""I don't need your apology, you'll be punished-""No! Stop."Both of them looked at me and I gave an awkward chuckle. "You see Mayor, I called Mark and was just yelling at him for waking me up early."Mayor’s eyes narrowed

TAYLOR MACKENZIEWhen Samantha said I'd be exhausted when she's done, I didn't think it would be as painful as it felt now. My back was hurting, so was my shoulders and fingers. I was quiet in the car as she drove me back to the garden where the tunnel was. "You good?" She asked and I nodded. "You're going to need to work hard and exercise everyday so your body can adapt to the stress and load you're giving it."I gave her a thumbs up and she led me to the tunnel. "Can you crawl?" She asked."Yeah, I'll try," I said. She bid me farewell and I found my way. I pushed myself until I slipped into my room unnoticed, being careful enough to avoid any unnecessary noise.I didn't strip any of my clothing but climbed on my bed collapsing onto it as my mind was still swirling with the training Samantha had made me go through. Well, that was past tense, I needed to get some sleep, no matter how little so that I could have a little energy before Mark would start his day by walking into my room
My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. SHE'S TESTED ME 71
TAYLOR MACKENZIESamantha returned and walked straight to where she kept her bag, she reached into it and pulled out a sleek black gun. "In this life, we'll be faced with many challenges, from lots of enemies I'll call it, that's why we have to be ready for anything, as well as equiped.""Where are you driving at?" I asked.She faced me and extended her hand, giving me the gun with a serious look."What?" I stood to my feet."Calm down Taylor, take the gun and shoot that vase."I looked at the vase she talked about before returning my stare to her face. "I have held a gun before, once, Diego gave it to me. However I couldn't use it when I needed to, I-""You panicked Taylor, you were in shock and let your emotions take over you. Now is different, if you let yourself, you could master it and yield it whenever you want."I glanced at the gun, my face falling into a look of apprehension. "I'm sorry Samantha but, I don’t really want to use it. It has lots of memories attached to it." Sam
My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. GAME ON 70
TAYLOR MACKENZIEI walked back into the mansion, a hand rubbing my neck due to the grip Mayor had on me earlier. He was an asshole. As I got into the house, I met Mark, he noticed as I rubbed my neck and immediately approached me. "Are you okay?"I took a step backwards. "Yes, why do you care?" "Your neck, it's-""Thompson tried to kill me. News flash, I didn't die."He reached out to touch me. "It must have hurt."I moved backwards again. "Don't touch me Mark, I mean it?"He took back his hands, burying them into his pocket. "Why are you still mad at me?" "I don't know, just don't feel like talking to you, just mind your business.""I'm responsible for you, I watch you.""Then do it from miles away, you don't have to be so close," with that, I walked away. I didn't stop or turn to him until I arrived at my room. I exhaled and relaxed.A week had passed since I and Samantha started our revenge journey. I usually snuck out in the nights of Wednesdays and Sundays to see her. And pic
My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. SHE'S SUSPICIOUS 69
THOMPSON VOLKOVThe early morning light filtered through the heavy curtains of my bedroom as I got ready for my daily workout. I had alot on my head now, people I needed to kill all because of their stupidity and inability to understand and cooperate with me. After a quick wash at the sink, I splashed my face with cool water, shaking off the remnants of sleep. I was ready and descended the staircase, the steps echoing softly under my weight.I was just going to walk out of the house but in the kitchen, I perceived something amazing. The aroma of fresh breakfast which started drifting through the air. It was a pleasant, yet unexpected scent."Who's it?" I asked, entering the kitchen."Oh, Thompson."I frowned as I was greeted by the sight of Taylor standing by the stove, busy with a skillet and a variety of ingredients spread out on the counter. She looked up as I entered, her face breaking into a warm smile.“Good morning, Thompson” Taylor said cheerfully. “I’m making breakfast. I t
My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. CONFRONTATION 68
TAYLOR MACKENZIEI knew I caught both Mark and Mayor off guard by my comment. Mayor's grip on my jaw loosened while Mark was staring at me, as I saw through my side eye. "Let go Thompson, those lips are important to both of us."He hesitated for a while before leaving me. I rubbed my jaw, trying to act unaffected but the pain was something else. "So, Taylor,” Mayor said, his voice smooth. "About your accident. How are you feeling after stabbing yourself just so you could leave this place to that uncomfortable hospital?"I offered him a cheeky smile. "Never been better, sometimes day offs are just the best, you should try traveling Thompson, it'll help you relax and get your mind off the list of people you think hate and are trying to kill you. Who knows, I might even tag along.""It's good to know you're okay," he said, ignoring my last statement."Actually, I'm a bit shaken up, but it's nothing I can’t handle. I actually feel a lot better now, better than I've felt since I got int

TAYLOR MACKENZIEI glared at Mark before approaching and collecting the medicine bag. "Thanks doc," I appreciated. I walked back toMark who just stood near the car, his eyes on me. As I got closer, he moved toward me, his strides purposeful and brisk.“Hey, Taylor!” he called out, his voice carrying a blend of warmth in contrast to how it was before. However, I wasn't listening to to whatever he wanted to say."Let's just go," I said but he grabbed my arm before I could walk past him. He reached out and took the hospital bag from me."Calm down, Taylor."I looked at him before giving a very fake smile. "Okay, how about this? Hey, Mark. Thanks for coming to pick me up, it means alot?" He chuckled softly. "Let’s get you home," he said. I rolled my eyes and walked ahead of him until we approached the car. I got inside and he did the same, after strapping our seatbelts, we drove off.As the ride proceeded, Mark gaze flickered toward me, his expression a mix of curiosity and concern."
My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. BACK TO THE MANSION 66
TAYLOR MACKENZIE"Looks like it took you alot to get here." The nurse said and confusion washed over me. I was processing the meaning of her words when I realized her voice sounded familiar."Is that, you?" She smiled and looked up from her clipboard, her eyes meeting mine. She nodded gently and I gasped, wondering how she passed Mayor's men. Samantha removed her nose mask revealing her familiar face and I was left breathless momentarily."Samantha?" I whispered. "How did you pass them?" I asked."Wasn't hard, and that's a story for next time." "No, I want to know, tell me!"She inhaled. "I have a spy, disguised as one of Mayor's men, I won't tell you who, that's how I get intels""Wow," I whispered, tears filling up my eyes. "I was scared. I thought you'd never find me." "That's nearly impossible," she answered.I sniffed. "Can I, please hug you.""Sure," she said and I rushed forward, enveloping her in a tight embrace. Samantha returned the hug, her arms a comforting anchor arou
