The first kiss...

Catalina had barely gotten any sleep. But the moment when her eyes closed, the loud alarm rang like bullets piercing in her ears. She got up horrified and confused. She needed to be on alert mode all the time. It was not her safe haven but the place where she could be buried dead and no one would ever know.

She made her way to the exit of the corridor and five gun men stood up straight on the sides of the path. She passed them without any notice as she found one woman tied up to the pole. She froze in her steps as the captive woman looked at her with a deadly fear in her eyes.

Mazov sat in his chair in all his glory as two buttons of his shirt were open revealing his toned chest. He glanced at Catalina who was visibly shaken up by his cruel pain inducing methods on the woman.

"Come here. " He asked Catalina who obviously debated her next move. But she had to prove that she was not slightly afraid of him. Why would she be? She was supposed to be one loyal person in his gang.

"Sit." He mentioned his lap by tapping on his thighs. She frowned while he just waited for her to move.

After lots of debating she gave in and sat on his lap awkwardly. He grabbed his waist and pushed her closer to his groin. She took a while to settle on his erection. He released a sigh when her soft curves grinded against his member.

"You thought you will cheat on me. You will backstab me? You will steal from me? " His hands ran along her goosebumps .

"Why are you shaking, little one? " He whispered in her ear.

Catalina didn't know if it was the fear or something else which was making her body heat like a lava. She was so close to his dick that she knew whenever she moved it was growing bigger. Her nipples were erected too. She had never meant to be involved sexually with him or anyone else.

She was promised to 'him'. And 'Him' only.

But in this moment everything seemed right and she enjoyed him teasing her like that without using his hands on her.

"You are torturing this woman and making me watch it all. What am I supposed to do? " She asked in the slow voice as him.

"Hmm. But I think you need to concentrate more on me than her. It will be easier for you. " He placed his chin on her shoulders.

" Whip her hundred times. " He roared angrily.

Catalina sat still at her place as the loud sound of whipping echoed in the air.

The woman screamed like a wild animal who was about to be butchered. It rolled back the past memories of her childhood. Her forehead was filled with beads of sweat and her heart beat to dangerous levels. She unintentionally grasped onto Mazov's wrists and closed her eyes.

"If you don't feel good then focus on me. " His palm touched her cold cleavage.

Mazov was amazed by the woman before him. In one aspect she was a trained killer while on the other hand she was shaking like a dry leaf as the woman was getting the whips on her back.

Mazov hugged her tightly and pulled her closer to his chest. He got on his feet and took her in his arms.

Catalina was unaware of the fact that she was being brought into the large bedroom. She felt the soft mattress under her back and finally opened her eyes. Even though the room was dark but the few rays of sunlight coming into the spots made it illuminated enough for her to see his face.

Mazov was gazing at her full lips and she couldn't keep her eyes off his mouth too. Mazov laid down beside her and touched her hair. He ran his fingers along her soft curls.

In a moment he was bending over her face. Their lips inches away from each other. It was then when Catalina realized what was happening with her. She immediately pushed him away and sat straight on the bed. She licked her lips and tried to calm her heart which was now beating at such high rates that it might explode in a moment.

"Don't! I am just your employee. You can't use me as a sex toy! " She shouted furiously at him.

" I never said you are a sex toy. Is that what you think of herself? Can't a woman take some pleasure like a man without being labelled as a slut? " His questions caught her off guard. She obviously had no idea about anything of it.

" She can! But with a man she likes. Not with someone she works for. " She began walking out of his bedroom.

" Who do you love? " He asked her as he grabbed her hands.

" You don't need to know that. Anyways, he is better than you in every way. " She didn't know why she said that but a light smirk appeared on her lips after she told him the truth.

Out of nowhere, Mazov caught her chin harshly and banged her body against the wall. She gasped in shock and the deep passion he was vibrating.

" No! He is not! " Mazov gave her a quick kiss on her lips and she felt her knees getting weaker.

Catalina had to push him away from her body. She ran like a scared deer out of his bedroom and fortunately this time he didn't follow her up.

The men were still torturing the woman who was now half dead as her head hung low facing the ground. The blood oozed out of her nose and mouth. Catalina couldn't believe that this man was such a cold hearted bastard that he had no shame in torturing a woman like that. Whatever she did was not that bad as per the punishment given to her. She ignored all the other sounds and made her way to her room.
