Sebastian laid on his bed as he remembered the night a month ago.
Month ago:
The sky was dark beyond the point of darkness. The moon and no stars were shining as the clouds had taken over them. Suddenly, it started thundering. Elysia was frightened by the sound of it. She closed the door of the veterinary clinic where she works and started to walk fast towards her home before the sky would start to pour out.
However, unfortunately, she had just reached the alley where it started to rain. ''Oh gosh, not now.'' Elysia groaned as she didn't have an umbrella and rushed. The coldness of the night was making her shiver.
She ran down the streets. Her apartment wasn't far from the vet clinic. So, she usually goes there by foot.
In the middle of the thunder, a voice caused her feet to stop. ''Is anyone there?'' She asked nervously.
A whimper could be heard.
''Excuse me?'' She asked again and entered the street. A little streetlight was lighting the alley but it wasn't bright enough. Elysia had to squint her eyes to see the source of those sounds.
Before Elysia could do anything, someone grabbed her leg. She jumped out of fright but gained her senses immediately and looked down.
''OH MY GOD!!!'' She shouted.
''Ple-please.'' She heard him saying.
The sky was pouring its heart out while his blood was also becoming a part of the flowing water. His face was beaten up so badly but Elysia could still see the best features of his face. A cut on his cheekbone was making him so dangerous and deadly even though he was barely able to open his eyes.
His lips had gone purple from the cold and he was shivering badly.
Elysia sat on her knees in front of him. Her hands were trembling. She saw his wound on the abdomen. Blood was oozing out of it. ''What should I do?'' She was terrified and put her hands on his wound and applied some pressure to minimize the blood loss.
''I am calling an ambulance. You need to go to the hospital.'' One hand was still on his hard abs while with the other she rummaged through the bag to find her phone. However, he instantly took her hand in his. His vision was blurry but he could see a little girl in front of him.
''Don't.'' One word, just one word, felt so authoritative and dominating from his mouth that although she wanted to yell at him, but she couldn't.
''But you will die at this rate.'' Elysia almost whispered.
''I don't care.'' He paused and closed his eyes, ''Do anything but don't take me to the hospital.'' He was barely able to say that.
''Look, you are either going to the hospital or I am letting you die on the streets.'' She didn't want to leave him, she definitely did not want to. Her soft and fragile heart was already aching to see him in this state but she had to threaten him. Unlike her expectations, it did not have any impact on him.
''Leave me then.'' He jerked her hand away from his wound.
Elysia was taken aback. ''How can I-'' she sighed and saw his closed flattering eyes. ''Okay, don't sleep. Try to stay in your consciousness and get up." She put his hand on the wound and wrapped one of her arms around his shoulders.
''Get up.'' With huge difficulty, she was able to get him on his feet. However, he was damn heavy to be held by her.
''Look, I can't carry you on my own. Bear your own weight too.'' She scolded him and staggered under him.
He tried to do what she said but his wound was hurting like hell.
Elysia does not know what she thought at that moment why she did that, but she walked him towards the animal clinic and let him sit on the stretcher which is used for the animals.
She put her hand on his pulse to check his heart rate.
''I am saying this to you for the last time. Let's go to the hospital. You have lost a lot of blood. Your pulse is really weak. You can go into shock.'' Elysia tried to explain the severity of the situation to him. Because this man was really stubborn and he was not ready to listen to her at all.
''Do whatever you can do.'' The Italian accent was rolling off his tongue.
Elysia sighed. ''I am a veterinarian. If you die in my bed today, I will not take any responsibility.''
The good side inside her was getting dominated and it was telling her to do whatever it takes to save this man. She knew that she was risking her medical licence.
''And if I am saved tonight, then I will take responsibility for your bed.'' He murmured so softly that Elysia could not hear him.
First of all, she adjusted the temperature of the place to help him with the hypothermia and Elysia took a deep breath and wore gloves and mask. She pulled his shirt upward to find his hard abs. They were definitely 8 abs as they went down from his lower abdomen. While the huge tattoo on his chest was making her run her fingers there.
'Pull yourself together, Elysia. This isn't the time to be drooling over some random man.' She snapped herself back to reality.
The wound was huge and deep. It looked like he had been stabbed. ''I am putting you on anesthesia.'' She was telling him and gave him the injection.
His face was void of anything. He was deeply in pain, but no one could tell that, apart from his pale face.
She examined his wound. It was a relief that he didn't need any surgery. Although it was really deep. Elysia stitched that up and bandaged up his other wounds. They were also really bad. His body was covered with them.
''Did he had a fight?'' She murmured to herself and took care of him the whole night. It was a relief that his blood pressure was getting better. She took a sigh of massive relief and had no idea when she would sleep.
It stopped raining. He woke up at dawn when the anesthesia wore out and without caring about the stitches, he woke up and groaned softly.
However, the pain subsided when his eyes fell on that angelic face. She looked so pure and her fair complexion looked so beautiful that he forgot to take his eyes off her.
Elysia had her head on the bed right beside him. Her eyes were long and thick, they looked like the wings of butterflies, while her lips were thin and pink. They were so kissable and irresistible.
He smirked and leaned in to give a peck on her forehead.
At that moment, the door of the clinic was flung open. He instantly glanced at the man who had come and signalled him to stay quiet. The man followed his order without any hesitation.
He glanced at the surroundings and without caring about himself, he walked towards the notepad. The man who had just come to give him support but he stopped him and started writing.
After he was done, he quietly placed the paper beside her and gave her a long, needy glance before leaving.
''I am sorry, boss.'' The man who came just now said to him,
He glared at him, ''Find all those motherf**kers. I will make them taste death.'' He looked so dangerous that the man held his breath with the fear that it might get on his nerves and become the cause of his death.
''Will do, boss.'' The man said.
He settled in the back seat of the car while the man drove him away.
Elysia woke up after an hour. Her eyes went wide when she saw an empty bed. She was about to run around to look for him but stopped upon seeing the note.
''I owe you a big one and I will make sure to take responsibility for your night, Tesoro (Darling).''
She read it. Once, twice, thrice. ''What does it mean? Is he kidding? I mean how can he just leave when I saved his life? Shouldn't he at least thank me? I shouldn’t trust people so easily.'' She rolled her eyes and threw away that note.
''I was not his one-night stand whom he can just leave after f**king around.'' Elysia did not know why, but she was getting really angry. This is totally against her personality.
She threw the strap of the bag on her shoulder and stomped her feet as she went to the apartment to take a shower. Her body was aching badly from sleeping in a bad posture, but a warm shower helped in soothing up the aches.
''Boss, the Russians are trying to invade our territory again. They are making deals with Inland Taipan.'' Ricci reported to him the latest news.''These Russians are getting into my head. They attacked me last time and I went easy on them. But now they are calling for death. Get information about their deal. I will see how they will get it done.'' Sebastian said wickedly.Sebastian is the 3rd generation Mafia. His grandfather and father were not as strong as him. That's why his father became a victim of another group.At the age of 15, Sebastian took hold of his family's business. From the smuggling of weapons, to drugs, the selling of girls to organ trafficking, he did everything and, within 3 years, he became the strongest Mafia in Italy.He is known as the 'Black King', because of his status in the dark world.Furthermore, no one has ever seen the true face of the Black King, except the few important men of his gang. All the deals he makes are made through his men. That's why his
Just like Sebastian planned and ordered, Ricci sent the details of the deal to the police. On the following night, the news that police had got millions worth of drugs in their custody became the headlines.He gave a blow to both, to the Russians and to the Inland Taipans also. They were trying to invade his territory. There was no way he was going to let them off the hook so easily.Furthermore, he decided to pay a visit to the leader of Inland Taipan himself.Robert was pacing around the room. He had paid the advance money to the Russians and now he suffered a great loss.''You must be feeling great, Robert.'' Sebastian walked inside his mansion, all majestic and ran his long and thick fingers on the metallic antique decorative piece.''You have done that, right? It was you behind all of it.'' Robert's jaws ticked as he paced closer to him.Sebastian raised an eyebrow and fidgeted with innocence as he lifted his hand in the air and surrendered, ''Oh no, what to do? I was trying to g
It was Monday and just like she promised the owner of the animal clinic, she decided to go there. She was in jeans and a black-neck sweater over it. It hid the scar on her neck while she let her hair loose, which helped her in hiding the wound on her face.Her eyes looked so dead and deprived of any emotions. But, Elysia brushed all the negative thoughts away and focused on what she needed to do."Good luck for the day." Lauren brimmed. "Shall I drop you at the clinic?""No, I can just walk there." She knew that she cannot always rely on Lauren. If she wants to get out of this slump, she needs to do it on her own."Okay. Call me if there is anything." She reminded her before grabbing the keys of her car and stepping out of the apartment.The empty place sent shivers down her spine. Elysia grabbed her things with haste and rushed out of them. Lauren has been taking days off for her sake. The sun was finally out after days.The sun's rays were numbing the cold breeze and making it refre
Since the day had now turned into night and Lauren could not take the risk of letting Elysia go home alone. Before Elysia's working hours ended, she went to her clinic and waited until she wrapped up the day.They walked home together. "Lauren, something happened at the clinic today.'' Elysia suddenly broke the silence.Lauren's heart thumped badly against her chest. ''What?'' She hid the nervousness as she asked.''There is a man. I saved his life almost 2 months back.'' She started. Actually, she did not tell her friends about Sebastian before because she did not get the chance."He came to the clinic today and he asked me out for dinner. He wants to treat me as compensation." This is all she made out of his offer.''Really?" Lauren raised an eyebrow. She was sure that Elysia had refused her offer. She is currently going through trauma. She can't even make eye contact with anyone. Let alone going on a date. "What did you tell him?"She exhaled loudly in the air, "I said, yes.''"WHA
With a nervously beating heart, Elysia started to get dressed up for dinner. She could not name it as a date because he was just returning aa favour which she had given him. So, she dropped the idea of wearing a dress and instead settled on slipping inside the formal black pants with a grey button-up shirt and a long checkered matching coat and a scarf around her neck. It covered the wound on her cheek also. A little makeup and that's it. Exactly at 7 pm, a car horn grabbed her attention. She knew it's him and when the time was there, she started to get sweaty hands and the little droplets of water were also shining on her forehead. Soon, Lauren peeped inside her room, ''Your date is here.'' She wriggled her brow. "He is not a date." Elysia refused and wore a mask of confidence as she walked out of the room. 'Hope this night will go well.' She wished, but she had no idea what her time with him was holding for her. "I am dying to see him." Lauren followed her. The knock on
They ate dinner in complete silence. Other than the sound of their cutlery, there was nothing that collided with their senses of hearing. Elysia could not get the fact out of her head that she was being affected by his astonishing presence. But she treated this dinner as a friendly meal. 'You are not allowed to have feelings for anyone.' She scolded herself and did not dare to look at him. In a split second, the huge glass window shattered. Like this, it is a wall of sand and it floats away as the wave hits it. "F**k." Sebastian cursed under his breath and he immediately pulled Elysia towards himself. Without wasting a second, he hid her under the table. Elysia does not know what happened or what is happening.... all she knows is.... this doesn't feel real. She doesn't feel like a part of it. It was surreal. When Sebastian pulled a gun and started shooting, Elysia did not have the slightest idea. Her head was spinning, the vision was getting blurry and she swang in his arms and h
In the middle of the night, Elysia felt her skin crawling. Her body shaking intensely. ''Leave me.'' She murmured.''Let go of me." Her voice got louder.Sebastian was sleeping on the chair. His eyes snapped open when he heard her wails. He immediately walked to her. She looked like a frightened puppy. His cold heart started to thaw.''Elysia." He called her name ever so softly that he could not even recognize his own voice.Elysia started shaking her head from left to right and right to left. She was in a state of denial.''You are fine.'' He held her hand and at the touch, her eyes opened. In the dim lights, her pupil contracted to find him and when she saw a man sitting beside her... she screamed, "DON'T DO THIS TO ME. I BEG YOU.''His heart clenched. He imagined she would have begged that bloody bastard the same way.''It's me. You are safe.'' His voice was loud. He did that to pull her back to reality. But she wasn't listening to her. Elysia sat up in the middle of the bed and pu
Sebastian let Elysia talk to her friend. Because he does not want her to think that he is taking advantage of her. When Elysia confirmed everything with her own mouth and told her that she was fine, Lauren was finally relieved.Meanwhile, Ricci investigated the whole incident and, with their perfect skills, they got their hands on the sniper."Boss, he is in the basement." Ricci informed him.Sebastian folded the sleeves of his shirt till his elbows, his jaws ticking and the knitted brows... this was going to be the death of someone. Well, he knows who.He followed his right-hand man to the basement, where they usually keep their prey. The heavy metallic door opened and he found a man, dressed in all black, being tied up on the chair in the middle of the room.His ruthless eyes trailed Sebastian while his face was covered with a number of bruises and cuts. Even the blood was trickling down from the corner of his lip but he snarled."You bloody little thing." Sebastian punched right ac
As soon as time became merciful to her and the class ended, she threw the strap of the bag over her shoulder. "Hey, wait." Caleb held her wrist to stop her. That gesture did not go unnoticed by the professor. He grabbed the laptop and made his way out of the class. ''I need to see Professor Wills. Will join you guys later." She said to Caleb and Sarah... Sarah, who had just walked to them. ''Okay." She agreed. But she wanted to know what was going on between Ella and Theo. In the last class, too, he stopped her from leaving and today, he called her directly to the office. Her sixth sense was giving her hints. Right now, she let go of her. Ella rushed to his office. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw a golden name plate on the black door, shining an authoritative name 'Theo Wills'. She knocked on the door softly and waited for permission from inside. Her body and heart were telling her to barge inside and push him back on the chair and take a seat on his lap. While her brain mad
Although Theo had planned on making up that morning, but there was something which was holding him back. The relationship between a professor and a student. It is unethical to get involved in such kinds of a thing with your student. However, the temptation was much stronger for him to resist. On the top, it was totally coincidental for him to come to her university and to teach her class. Theo Wills is a renowned psychiatrist, with a number of publications. He was a little tired of hearing people all the time and mending them up. It was totally out of nowhere, when a university contacted him and offered him a position as a professor. He could not deny it. When he saw Ella in the class, his steps indeed froze to the ground. What kind of a twisted fate was it? Once again, he was on his way to take his class. Last time when she walked out, he did not follow her nor did he give her justification. He wanted to give her time to wrap her head around all of it. In fact, he needed time too.
Next morning, when Ella woke up, the room was empty. The space besides her on the bed was cold. The disappointment pricked over her heart. 'What was I expecting? It was supposed to be a one-night stand.' She said to herself. They didn't even ask each other for the number. They just used each other for their pleasure and that's it. When she stepped out of bed, the soreness in between her legs made her groan. Well, it was going to remind her of the erotic night for a while. She blushed, the touch of his rough hands was still alive. She could smell his lingering scent on her body. Her eyes stopped at the side table where there was a note. She picked up the little memo which stated, ''Thank you for last night and give the keys to the receptionist before leaving.'' The rage built in her. "What does he think of me? Am I some whore or what? I was just under the influence of alcohol and he happened to be extremely breathtaking. During that moment, I couldn't think of anything." She justifi
Ella had no idea where this man was taking her. She doesn't know his name or what he is. He can be a smuggler or a drug trafficker, but at that moment, she did not care. The club was on the ground floor and soon, she was standing in the elevator with him. He was holding her hand. The warmth of his limbs was consuming her, setting her body on fire. She never thought that just holding someone's hand could turn her on this badly. All the while, he did not exchange a single word with her. He waited for the door to open and soon, she found herself following him. He took out a card key from his pocket to unlock the door. It was a presidential suite. Exquisite and the natural woody and strong scent engulfed her. However, when the door behind her closed, the reality hit her. His tall body towered over her, he folded his arms against his chest and he stared at her. The muscles in his jaws were ticking. Ella felt intimidated by his presence, against his tall height she looked so small. The a
Ella was wearing a short black dress that was riding to her butt, giving someone a peak of those peaches and her long white legs were on full display. They were smooth and flawless, inviting someone to run their fingers on them. She did her makeup, the dark eyeshadows were making her eyes smoky. Her black hair was loose and falling on her back. She looked ravishing. Sarah was her roommate and they have been together all these years. She is taller than Ella, but Ella was surely more beautiful. The club was 20 minutes away from their dorm. They took the bus as they chatted about different things. The booming music greeted them when they walked inside the club. The sweaty grinding bodies waving to the rhythm of music, some horny people had their tongues plunging in the mouths of each other while some had their hands going berserker under others clothes. ''Two cosmos, please.'' Ella and Sarah took the seats in front of the bar. Ella was in the last year of her psychology program....
Sebastian pulled the blanket from her body. Although her eyelids flattered, she remained stubborn and continued the act of ignoring him. His sin was grave.... because of him, her life was ruined. It wasn't going to be easy to get over it soon.''I know you are up." His deep and grumpy voice made her skin crawl.He ruffled his hair as he continued, ''I am sorry, Elysia. I should have told you. This wasn't something that was going to stay hidden forever and I wanted to tell you myself but I was afraid. See, you left me and only the thought of not seeing you again scared the hell out of me." He sat on the edge of the bed and held her hand.Now, Elysia had to open her eyes. The sight with which she met, it shook her to the core. He looked so broken and vulnerable that she wanted to forget everything and pull him into a hug.''I will accept any punishment which you choose for me. But please, not this." He turned to glance at her and begged."I am sorry, but I can't do that. You know what I
Their plan worked. The police followed his gang members and during that time Elysia and Lauren slipped away from them.They went back to Lauren's apartment. Elysia sat on the couch in the way of literally falling on it. It was a long day and she was exhausted.Lauren also took a seat beside her and turned to her, "Now, spill the beans and tell me what happened? I am seriously going to confront that Mafia if he does something bad to you." She threatened her.Elysia scrunched her nose and sniffed hard as the tears in her eyes built up and they were making her nose runny."Lauren, he broke my trust. He hid the truth from me. All the while, I thought that he liked me for what I am, but that wasn't the case. He was pitying me." She fiddled with her lips and bit her quivering bottom lip."What exactly did he do?" Lauren was confused. Still, she took her hand in hers and gave it a soft squeeze to assure her that she was fine.''The man..." her voice was cracking. It was hard for her to talk
Sebastian's gang ruthlessly got rid of all the Russians but they kept in mind the instructions which he had given them. So, they kept Mikhail alive."You freaking monster. You had the audacity to touch my women. I will cut your body into so many tiny pieces that not even your mother will recognize you." He stood in front of him and grabbed him by the collar."Sebastian... please. I did not mean to." When he saw that Sebastian had narrowed the earth for him to leave and the air wasn't enough to breath, while death was gripping from all sides, he opened his mouth.Sebastian smirked, "She would have begged you also, didn't she?" His jaws slammed together and he punched his face so hard that he fell on the ground, groaning and wincing in pain.He took more steps in his direction.One.Two.Three.And each step was making Mikhail hate the moment in which he dared to mess with him. Well, it would have been great if he had died in that attack and if that vet bit*h didn't save his life. As he
Meanwhile, Ricci had given Sebastian the latest update on the Russians. The spies had laid their hand on the secret which reveals the mystery about the building.''They have the ring which belong to Mikhail, but Mikhail is not in the building currently. Boss, what do you want us to do?" They were standing in the harbour.Sebastian scratched his chin, ''Let's wait for him. Make sure he doesn't have a chance to flee.'' He instructed and stepped inside the car. All they have to do now is to wait.Actually, the thing which divides the building into two parts is the ring which Mikhail wears. If you rotate it clockwise, the wall appears and fades away. He had no idea how his men got the ring but he couldn't have been any happier. Today, he was going to make that motherfu*ker taste death.They waited and waited. Almost a whole day passed. The blue sky was now hiding under the blanket of darkness. While Sebastian was getting impatient, "I need that bastard alive." He spoke in earpiece."Okay
