[Anastasia's point of view]

I had no idea I had fallen asleep. I sluggishly opened my eyes, instantly blinded by the bright light streaming in through the window.

What time was it? I looked around the room with hazy eyes and foggy thoughts. I tried to move but was stopped by a groan of protest as I strained the cuff around my wrist.

Cuffs?

My vision immediately cleared, and I discovered that I was still cuffed to the bed. My eyes widened as everything came flooding back to me with a vengeance. Being still in my wet clothes made me shiver with cold.

“Enzo.”

I whispered the name out loud as my eyes began to well up with tears. How long had I been handcuffed to the bed, and how much longer would I be?

“Good. you're awake.”

The female voice sent my head spinning so quickly that I didn't realize Mrs. Mezzesalma was sitting on the couch in the middle of the room until later. She was reading a magazine and spoke without looking at me.

I glowered. What was she doing here?

“Mrs. Mezzesalma.”

    [Anastasia's point of view]It was one in the morning and I couldn't sleep. Even though the windows were closed, I could feel a cold breeze slipping in, followed by the chill of the AC. I looked at the empty side of the bed; Enzo had said he would return, but it had been hours and there had been no sign of him.I drew my knees up to my chest and hugged them. I had no idea I was so attached to Enzo until now. Maybe Rue was right; I was hooked on Enzo. Perhaps it was because he was the first man I'd been with, or perhaps it was something else. And speaking of Rue, I was curious about her condition. She must be suffering greatly while I was only restrained by handcuffs to the bed. For some reason, I felt it was my fault that we were caught. I sighed and hugged my knees even more tightly. I'd find her in the morning and apologize.I lost patience after another 30 dragged-out minutes. I dragged myself out of bed and squeaked out of the room. The moment I walked into the deserted hallway

    [Anastasia's point of view]Sienna. The name was reverberating in my head over and over again like an unsteady record.Enzo has a fiancee and he has never for once mentioned it or had anyone ever mention it. As the name coil in my head, I felt like a clown. “You can not tell anyone I told you about, no one is supposed to know.” Rue's warning voice also halo in my head and I didn't realize I was crying until a sob split out of me.“Is there something you want to tell me, doll?”I nearly recoiled at Enzo’s voice. I slowly lifted my head, finding Enzo sitting on the sofa, looking through papers scattered all over the table. He was wearing a grey sweatshirt that was dragged up to his elbows and in a pair of matching grey pants. And laid on the bridge of his nose was a pair of reading glasses.He looked hot, and I didn't know why I was concentrating on that when my heart felt like it was going to tear out of my heart. It was hurting so much.Instead of answering, I laid my head back and

    (ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW) I knew this was a bad idea the moment I followed Enzo into the dining area for dinner. From what I was told, none of the family members were around and when Enzo and I arrived, there was no one there. As much as it felt uncomfortable having dinner at the family dining table, Enzo didn't seem to care and it didn't look like he was ready to return to his room and I was struck with him. It was all good and I didn't have trouble swallowing down my food till Mrs Miranda sauntered into the space. She paused for a second as her gaze landed on me. I nearly stood up to acknowledge her but Enzo's hand landed on my thigh. "I didn't realize we allowed whores on the dining table now." Her eyes glared as she took a seat on the opposite side of the table, keeping a firm gaze on me. My breath hitched at her words. "What's going on?" It was Sandrino Mezzesalma's voice. My eyes widened as the Boss went over to his seat at the edge of the table and following behind

    (ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW)They say eavesdropping on a private conversation was wrong but I didn't think it was wrong when your name was the subject.Arriving at the door of my shared room with Khione and Rue, I abruptly halted with my hand reaching for the doorknob as Khione's audible and indignant voice came from the other side. "I was only gone for a few days and you decided to pull shit with Anastasia. What the fuck were you scheming this time huh?!"The sound of my name made me listen closely to the point I was almost pressing my ear to the door."Why do you always think I'm always cooking something up?" Rue sounded serene."Because you are!" Khione exclaimed. "I know you so well and I know when you are planning shit!"Rue tsked. "Look, I only invited her out because you were not around and I needed the company. Paul was interested and I see why he couldn't have her.""You of all people know what happens when rules are broken and you know better than anyone how much Enzo hates

    (Anastasia's Point of View) Recalling Enzo's words, I decided to wait but the longer I waited, the more I felt drowsy, and soon, tiredness washed over me and I dozed off. I didn't know how long I slept till I heard the sound of the door shutting and my eyes opened, my blurry gaze was able to make out the form of Enzo walking into the room before it slowly cleared. "Enzo." I slowly sat upright, rubbing the sleep off my eyes. "You're back." I continued. Perhaps it was because I was sleepy or because I was craving his attention or just a whiny bitch as I got off the bed and wrapped my arms around his torso and rested my head on his chest. "You were gone for so long." I pouted, tightening my arms and basking in his warmth and cologne. "I'm starving, doll." I think this was the first time Enzo was talking about being starving. And it didn't take long before we arrived at the kitchen. It was past midnight, so everyone in the mansion was asleep. I opened the fridge, looking through

    [Enzo’s Point of View] It was 1 a.m. and it was that time of year again. That time of the year that has always been a constant reminder of the past I didn't know if I wanted to forget or not. Staring up at the ceiling without blinking felt like watching a replay of my life as memory after memory flashed before my eyes, making my chest clench and ache, and instead of melting, I could feel my heart freezing over as I remembered the pain in her eyes as she tried to hide the fact that she was hurting. Despite the bruises on her body, she always had a smile on her face. I nearly thought she was okay because of how well she could conceal her pain. Finally looking away from the colorless ceiling, I rolled out of bed at 2 p.m. letting my feet touch the ground as I walked over to the couch, picking up the sweatshirt and slipping it over my head. “Enzo?” I paused for a moment at hearing the endearing voice before turning to see Anatasia sitting up in bed and innocently blinking at me wh

    [Anastasia's Point of View]Being with Enzo sparked a fire in me that I couldn't put out and ignited a boldness in me that I wasn't sure existed before, but I liked it, I like that new side of me. I awoke at seven in the morning to the sound of the shower running. I got out of bed and went to the bathroom, where I saw Enzo standing beneath the shower with the water freely cascading down his body. The sight made me gulp and licked my lips as I just stood there staring and wondering what shower sex would be like because I was coaxed.He was hot with the tattoos on his back and arm, and his abs were eye-catching.As I stepped out of my nightgown, naked, and into the shower beside him, I decided to catch him off guard. He tensed up automatically as soon as he felt my presence and my hands landed on his back, before wiping his head to look at me. “Anatasia!” he sounded shocked and that gave me great satisfaction knowing I caught him off guard for the first time.I kept our eyes locked

    [Khione’s Point of View]“W-hat type of work do you do?”The question reverberated in my head, and it was in Anastasia's voice because she was the first to ask it. I remember how it struck me when I realized I couldn't explain it.Tonight, I decided to go all black with a sexy body suit and stockings, I didn't bother with heels as I sat on the bed, waiting for my first client of the night; and it didn't take long before the door was opening and he was trudging in as if he had the world at the palm of his hands.He smirked and started taking off his upper jacket as he made his way over to the couch in the corner of the room, which had a small table with a few bottles of wine on it and a mini-stage with a pole in front. My face naturally broke into a seductive smile.He started by already pouring himself a glass of wine, "They said you were the best around, and I've been eager to find out your real capabilities.” He smirked at me once more.I had grown accustomed to cocky clients.

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)I locked my gaze on the pregnancy kit, which returned my gaze with two bold red lines.I was pregnant.I sighed and dropped my hands to my lap, making no attempt to rise from the toilet seat."Khione, Khione, Khione. "How can you let yourself get pregnant again?"The guilt of losing my first pregnancy was still swollen on my chest, and it had no intention of leaving anytime soon. and now, another baby was on its way."Khione, are you okay in there?"Giovanni's voice came from the other side of the bathroom door. When I finally stood up with the pregnancy test, my legs wobbled. I felt drained when I shouldn't be.I stepped out of the bathroom and into my bedroom, where Giovanni waited with a worried expression."Are you okay?" He inquired before his gaze was drawn to the pregnancy kit in my hand. His pupils dilated as they met mine. "You're preg-""I am afraid of having another child, Giovanni." I interrupted him before he could continue. "Wha

    (ENZO'S POINT OF VIEW)I tried to stop myself from pacing, but I couldn't, not when Anastasia's loud screams were coming from behind the door in front of me. She was calling for me; giving birth to our child, but I couldn't go in; I wasn't allowed to, and she had to bear all that pain alone.I despised the feeling of being useless and helpless.I was about to become a father. The thought both excited and terrified me. I knew nothing about being a Father.It had always been drugs, guns, and trying not to go insane. I never imagined bringing a child into my chaotic world, but this child was on its way. Would I make a good father?Damnit!"Did you know that the longest English word contains 189,819 letters?"I turned my head, glaring at Kai, who was leaning against the wall. He shrugged. "I was trying to cheer you up, but that'd be a badass word, isn't it? Fortunately, I dropped out of school." He chuckled."Be quiet." I snapped."You worry too much. It is not flattering on you. It tarn

    (ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW)"We are here, Ma."The sound of the driver's voice made me turn my head and look out the window.We were in front of a dilapidated apartment building in a busy and active neighborhood. I cocked my head to the side as I observed kids running around and laughing heartily. There were a few men carrying objects and three tattooed men smoking outside the corner.I noticed two neighborhood stores right next to the building. I averted my eyes as I fixed them on the tall, old building. Would I really find my parents here?Max had better not mislead me. I told the driver to "wait here" before getting out of the car without thinking, and fastened the buttons on my coat to cover my growing stomach.Yes, I was four months pregnant, and despite my concerns, Enzo had been exhilarated about having a child.I felt like everyone was looking at me the moment I stepped out of the car, but I chose to ignore them as I heaved a sigh and entered the building.I

  • Ruined By The Mafia   098: "Can I Confirm Something First? Are You Mine Again?”

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)A few days passed, and I'd avoided Giovanni like he was some plague and struck Charlie's side like glue; he even wanted me gone, but Giovanni seemed to have taken it as a hint that I'd chosen Charlie over him and decided to leave on his own.I remembered the tears in his eyes as he told me to be happy, and I wished I'd stopped him when he walked out of my home, but I was a coward. Even Charlie scolded me for it, but I was scared.I was afraid of giving in again. What if everything went wrong again? What if something happened to separate us again? I couldn't help but feel insecure. I sighed for the nth time that day, glancing at the door again and again, hoping Giovanni would appear with the smile that melted my heart and the smirk that created a pool of wetness between my legs, but I knew it was wishful thinking. I knew that no matter how many times I looked at the door, he would never appear; after all, it had been two weeks since he had given up and walked

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)When I walked out of the school and into the parking lot, I was surprised to see Charlie and Giovanni talking with their backs to me.I paused, my mind telling me to turn and walk away before they noticed my presence, but another part of me told me to get closer, especially when I heard them say my name.I did not move any closer when their words became clear, and fortunately, they had not noticed me yet."Don’t you think you have been a nuisance lately? If I were Khione, I would have gotten rid of you." Charlie spoke.Giovanni scoffed. "Since you're not Khione, that's not your call, and I'm going to be around for as long as she wants me to be.""But she is not interested in you. Isn’t that self-evident? She is already in love with me, and your presence only adds to her pain from the past she wishes to forget. I believe Khione is being overly nice and is unable to say no when she clearly wants to." Charlie stuffed his hands into his pants pocket.I averted my

    (ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW)I stared as the smirk on Godfather Gattani's face deliberately subsided and gushing from his mouth was blood gradually, he lowered to his knees before falling to the ground with his blood coupling around him.I jerked up my head, meeting the malignant eyes of Enzo as he clenched his gun so tightly I could see the veins on his wrist and forehead."Enzo," I called softly, snapping him out of it.He let the gun plunge from his hand and rushed over to me, cupping my face and for the first time, I was able to graze terror in his eyes and expression. "I wasn't fast enough, I'm so sorry, doll." His voice lurched.At that moment, I shirked I was punctured on the shoulder as the pain somehow seemed to cease. I cracked a full smile. "I'm fine, It's not that deep.""Fuck." He exhaled, seating his forehead on mine and I took the opportunity to inhale his alleviating scent. It was intoxicating. "My own death does not frighten me but yours? That's my greatest and deepest

    [ANASTASIA’S POINT OF VIEW]The most effective way to control a man is to make him believe that he was using you.Rue kidnapped me, knocked me out, and now I was tied to a pillar. She got me because I let her. She grinned at me as she stood in front of me, and I gave her the same vaporous look in return.“I can't wait to peel off your skin.” She winked at me, and I rolled my eyes. Her gaze fell to her watch. "Godfather Gattani will arrive in a few minutes; as soon as I receive the go-ahead, I will begin with that face of yours."I tsked, tilting my head and scanning her from head to toe before looking her in the eyes. "How does it feel to be a pawn, knowing you will eventually lose everything? I heard he asked you to get rid of Miranda; what makes you think you will not be next on his list when this is all over?" She reached out and grabbed my hair firmly, bringing her face closer to mine, her eyes red with rage. "You know nothing, so why don't you shut up before I kill you sooner th

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)I thought Giovanni had gotten the hint and was gone for good, but I was dead wrong, and I wish I had been prepared when the idiot showed up at my place of work.Being invited to the principal's office, I thought I'd done something wrong, only to find Giovanni there. I paused, and my eyes turned into a glare."What are you doing here?" I exploded. Giovanni flashed me a grin. "Judging by your expression, I believe you know this man." The principal wore an unimpressed expression. "He insisted on not leaving till he saw you, and that has been like an hour ago; please get him out.""Yes, sir." I turned to Giovanni, grabbed his wrist, and yanked him to his feet. "Let's go."We left the office, and I didn't stop dragging him by the wrist till I found an empty classroom and shoved him in, shutting the door behind me before turning to him with a sharper glare.
