THE DON’S CAPTIVE Chapter 12
Antonio's POVI walked to the study that I assigned Giulia to clean and I must admit that she did a good job.Although, walking into the room brought back memories of things that I didn't want to remember.I lost the most important person in my life in this room, and thanks to that madman.I walked out of the room before any more thoughts came to mind.I hadn't seen Giulia since after she dropped my tea and she seemed to look pale this morning.I walked to her room and when I pushed the door open, I saw Giulia laying on her bed with a maid cleaning her head with a wet cloth.The maid bowed slightly when she saw me.“What is going on here?” I asked, pretending not to see that she was sick.“She seems to be having a fever, sir.”“Okay.” I looked at Giulia whose eyes were closed. She opened them for a while, and our eyes met, and for some reason best known to me, I didn't feel remorse.She forced herself to sit and I didn't tell her to lay back as any gentleman would do.“I'll call the p

Giulia's POVI walked out of my room to the dining room. Don Antonio had instructed that I join him for lunch.This was my first year here and I still didn't understand why he kept asking me to join him for meals.I thought slaves ate in the kitchen or where? If I wasn't a slave, then what was I? Maybe I was a doomed captive.Yes, a doomed captive I was. Don Antonio didn't cease to frustrate me every passing day. He never ran out of ideas on terrible things to do to me.Neither Lorenzo nor Sophia were helping matters.Even though I made his tea perfectly, he still found a way to frustrate me, I still sold drugs, I still danced naked, I cleaned his room, washed his robes, yet he still invited me to the…“Oh my God! I'm so sorry” I pleaded. I had bumped into Don Antonio while I was lost in thoughts.I thought he was supposed to be at the table. I wasn't late.He didn't say anything, he just folded his hands behind him and looked at me.“I'm so, so sorry master,” I said again.“It's okay

Giulia's POVI sat quietly as I watched two brothers argue because of me.This was the second time Don Antonio had to pounce on someone because they touched me, still yet he wanted to kill me.I wasn't expecting Vincenzo to kiss my cheeks. It was obvious he did that to annoy his brother.It was still a surprise to me that Don Antonio was a twin. An unidentical one at that.Watching Don Antonio push his brother against the wall seemed like he was pushing himself because there was no way one could tell the difference between the two men.There sure was going to be a difference; I just hadn't noticed it yet.Don Antonio walked back to the table angrily the moment his brother left. He stood beside me and I could tell from his eyes that he was mad with anger.“Stand up.” I stood up immediately and I was standing right in front of him.“Stay away from my brother, Giulia.” He said with his burning gaze not leaving mine.How was I supposed to know the difference between them?“Yes, master,”

Giulia's POV“I…I don't know…what happened to him,” I stuttered. “ I went to his room to drop his tea when he fell.” I explained to the doctor who came in five minutes after I raised an alarm.I was panicking and my palms were all sweaty; it had been a while since I saw some one pass out. My mum suddenly came to mind and I began to hope that it wasn't what I was thinking.I had walked in this morning to drop his tea as usual before sunset and just when he stood up, he collapsed. I had called for help and Lorenzo called the doctor immediately.“Where is he? What happened to him?” Sophia asked as she rushed in.She turned to face Vincenzo who stood quietly close to the bed where his brother lay, with his back rested on the wall.She raised her brows at him expecting a response but got none and then turned to me.“What happened to him?” She asked “I don't know, he just passed out.” I answered reluctantly. I really didn't want to talk to her but all the same, I didn't want her to create

Antonio's POV“It's fibromyalgia.” Vincenzo said as he sat.I had a bad feeling about all of this the moment Vincenzo asked Giulia to leave all the same I was expecting.I've had the signs for quite sometime but I refused to believe it was it.“Who else knows about it apart from the doctor of course? I asked.He looked at me for a while and said, “Giulia.”“Why? This is supposed to be between us.”“I felt the need to let her know.”“Or you were blinded with whatever you feel for her and trusted her with my secret.” I said angrily, making emphasis on ‘my’.“I'm sorry.” He was angry at what I said but he still apologized.This was something about Vincenzo that made him better than I. If it were me, we would fight right on the spot and his apologies made me feel guilty.“I'm sorry, but you could have kept it between us.”“It's fine,” he seemed surprised because the apology was unlike me. “ You sound like you'll die soon,” he said with a wild laugh.A knock was soon heard on the door and

Giulia's POVI woke up as early as I could to make Don Antonio's tea. I was so worried about him that he kept coming to mind all night.Was I starting to like him? Hell no!Having anything to do with Don Antonio was the last thing on my mind. I knocked gently on the door and stood outside for a while but I didn't get a response. I knocked again and stood for a while and when I didn't get a response, I walked in.Good thing he didn't lock his door; I would have been hell worried. But why should I be?I got to his table and dropped the tea after taking a sip but then I noticed he wasn't on his bed.I walked to the bathroom and listened by the door but I heard nothing.I suddenly became worried. I stood for a while thinking of where Don Antonio could be. I decided to check his study; he must have been up early to work. I walked out and turned to close the door properly.“Are you looking for someone ?” A familiar masculine voice asked as I turned and my heart skipped a beat.I jammed m

Giulia's POV“From now on, you'll address me as Antonio and not master.” Don Antonio said and I choked.Was this a joke? Was he trying to set me up?“I…I don't think I can do that.” I answered before I could stop myself.“It's an order that you dare not disobey.” His voice was fierce; he was angry.If making that decision made him so angry when then was he making it? Maybe it had something to do with Vincenzo.“Yes, mas…” I paused when he narrowed his eyes at the sound of ‘master’.How in the world did he expect me to start calling him by his name all of a sudden?I have called him ‘master' all the time I lived here; this was just another way to frustrate me.“Eat.” He said as he picked up his cutleries and began to munch on the meal. I picked up mine and began to eat too.A knock was soon heard at the door. I stood up to go check, but he gestured that I sat down, and I did.“Come in.” His deep voice echoed.Lorenzo walked in, and with the expression on his face, I could tell that he

Giulia's POV“Can I please have a book to read or something; I'm bored,” I said when I couldn't hold it any longer.I sat faced Don Antonio who scrolled through his cell phone for close to an hour and hadn't said anything to me. I was so bored that I just wanted to take a nap.I had yawned countless times, hoping that he'd say something, but whenever I yawned, he just looked at me for a split second and looked away.My head had replayed the hug scenario countless times and I had gotten bored. The hug was sure refreshing and I never believed that moment would ever occur.The fact that he refused to let me go even when Sophia entered was so demure, and I thought he was beginning to like me, but my current situation assured me that the hug was just a coincidence.It was just so surprising that he hugged me after I yelled at him, I thought I had met my end. He looked at me for a while and smiled.“You are a smart young lady; you know that, right?” He asked.What have I done again? He o

Giulia's POVJust as we stepped into his room, I pulled him closer and placed my lips on his, leading to a heated kiss.He had spoiled me today, it was my turn to return the favour.Our tongues twirled endlessly around each other and I felt the best run through my body.Antonio turned the other way and pinned me to the wall with our lips still in motion.Antonio's lips soon left mine. I closed my eyes as he trailed kisses from my lips down to my chest.He quickly ripped my dress off so he could access my breasts.“I loved the dress,” I said with a playful frown.“I got you this one, I'll get many more…”“if you say so.”Antonio went back to my lips and let his hand fondle my breasts, making every move worth the while.He pinched my nipples slightly and I moaned.Antonio let his hand drop to my panties and he tore it.He could have just asked me to take it off but what time was there to do so?Antonio took his lips from mine and pulled me up so that my legs were around his waist.He mad
THE DON’S CAPTIVE Chapter 69
Antonio's POVThe sun rays from the slightly opened curtain shone into my eyes.I opened my eyes to find Giulia still sleeping peacefully beside me. I moved away the strand of hair scattered on her face and placed a kiss on her forehead.I swung my legs from the bed and stood up. I didn't want to leave her side but I had to.If I was going to accomplish my plans for the day, I had to start early. I had never felt so much peace in my entire life, being with this woman was everything.I went to the bathroom to freshen up.As I had my bath, last night's ordeal presented itself in my thoughts.I carried Giulia in my arms from the dining room after the first round and when we got to my room, we went again before I collapsed.Damn! I waved away any more detail that came to mind before the urge to pounce on sleeping Guilia came.Life looks good again. I finished and prepared the bathtub for Giulia.It was something I had never done or even dreamt of doing for any woman but Giulia deserved to

Giulia's POV“Antonio asked for you,” a maid who had walked in after I asked her to, said.“Where is he?”“He is in the dining room; he's inviting you for dinner.”“I'll be there in a giffy,” I answered and she left after bowing slightly.I reached out for my dress as I had just had my bath a few minutes ago.As I put my dress on I took countless deep breaths to ease my heavy heart but it wasn't working.It would have been better if I ate in my room, I didn't want to see Vincenzo. I could only think of how I had left that day at the airport.I had not taken my time to think deeply on how he must have felt that day because I thought I was never going to see him again.But here I was…I walked to the dining room, my heart pounding heavily in my chest and for a moment, I thought it was going to come out.If there was anyone I didn't want to see now, it was Vincenzo.I didn't want to sit at the same table with him but I had no choice. I had never been this uncomfortable.I honestly began
THE DON’S CAPTIVE Chapter 67
Giulia's POVTwo months laterI walked into the building twirling my waist like I owned the place.I was earlier than usual and I couldn't help but imagine the look on his face when he got in to meet me in the office. I wore whatever I wanted but was sure to not abuse the privilege I was given to do so.Since the last time the boss shunned them, everyone was careful with what they said to me.Of course, they still gossiped but never to my hearing. The place became silent whenever I walked past.The receptionist, Amanda, became my best friend.We always exchanged pleasantries and did a little chit chat for a while before I took the elevator.Today wasn't any different.“You look good girl,” she said with a smile even before I got to her.“You don't look bad yourself,” I smiled back.“I still can't believe how lucky you are,” she said, the smile not wearing off.“What is it?” I asked with raised brows.“You are the only person who has worked this long as the boss’s personal assistant; g

Antonio's POV“Where is she?” Vincenzo asked immediately as he set his eyes on me.Vincenzo flew down after I told him about Sharon. I tried to dissuade him but he insisted on seeing her.“She is in her room.”“You already gave a stranger a room in your home; who knows if this is a trap?”I took a deep breath. I hope I wasn't making the wrong decision in bringing her in.“What if it's not?”“You have been getting countless attacks, Antonio… she could be one of them,” he interjected.What if Vincenzo was right?How I suddenly believed she was my sibling was what I couldn't fathom, yet my conviction was stronger than my doubt.“She's not.”“How sure are you?” He frowned.“I felt a connection the moment I saw her, the trust came so easily.”"Since when did you start working based on your emotions?”I took a step closer to him with a burning gaze.“I'm not working based on emotions, I'm being realistic.”“I hope you are not making a mistake you'll forever regret,” he said and looked away.
THE DON’S CAPTIVE Chapter 65
Antonio's POV“Good morning,” a nurse greeted me as I made my way to Sharon's room.I responded with a nod, not sparing her a glance.I got to her room to meet the doctor coming out.“Good morning, Antonio.”“Good morning Doc,” I answered. “How is she?”“Her health has improved, she's responding to treatment,” he said.“That's good news,” I said with a light smile and walked into the room.Sharon lay quietly with a drip fixed to her arm. Her mood lightened up when she saw me.I dropped the things I had bought for her on the table and sat next to her.She looked better than the previous days; her health had improved.I leaned in to place a kiss on her forehead and she smiled.How I'd come to care so much about this stranger was something I was yet to understand.''I brought some things for you,” I said as I helped her sit up.“That's so nice of you.”I picked the bag and handed her the fruits in it.For the last few days, I figured that she preferred fruits to food so I always got them

Giulia's POV“Bloody hell,” I muttered as i sleepily reached for my buzzing alarm to turn it off.I wanted to stay in bed a little longer but it was 5:30 am and I had to be ready before seven.I rolled out of bed and went to freshen up. As I opened my drawer, his words came to mind.‘You are to dress well as you would be almost everywhere with me.’I took out a mini corporate skirt and a long sleeved shirt coupled with my black heels. I carefully did my make up and packed my hair in a messy bun leaving two strands to fall forward.I quickly put on my jewelry and I was all set. I picked up my phone to check the time and it was a few minutes past six.Way to go, girl!I picked up my hand bag which I had arranged the night before and stepped out of the room.Then I remembered one more thing. ‘Always come with a jacket or two so as not to freeze to death.’I rushed inside to pick up the jacket he had given me the day before. I couldn't afford to freeze to death.My stomach grumbled but I

Giulia's POV "Lucien."What in the world was he doing here? Lucien, who was in shock, regained his composure.I was in awe. I just wanted the ground to open and swallow me; I thought I was never going to see him again."Giulia," he said with a smile.Why in the world was he smiling? Well, he wasn't the one who thought we were never seeing each other again."Babe," a high pitched voice came from inside.Lucien had a girlfriend?When Lucien didn't respond, she came out to see us standing faced each other. The shock on my face had been replaced with anger and Lucien retained his smile.Her eyes darted from Lucien to me and then back to Lucien."Do you know her?" She asked."I do," he answered curtly, in hopes that I didn't speak before he did.What was I even supposed to say?"We had a little clash yesterday and I never expected to see her today but it turns out we are neighbors."A little clash? The word 'neighbors' rang a loud bell.Was this what Vincenzo was talking about? He should

Antonio's POV"How is she?" I asked."Her condition is critical, and her breath is quite unsteady," the doctor said with his hands in his pocket."I want to see her."The doctor looked at me in hesitation before giving a nod.I followed him to the room and as he entered I followed suit with my mind in chaos.The moment I set my eyes on Sharon I broke down mentally and emotionally.She lay down looking lifeless with oxygen masked to her face. I couldn't help but blame myself for her condition.I got to her bedside and watched her. "What do we have to do to keep her alive?""I'm not certain about her survival but we can try...""What is that?" I asked in desperation. I couldn't let this woman I had just met hours ago die."We could carry out an operation. We've managed to stop the bleeding but the bullet has not been removed.""Why?""The bullet got to her heart and it's not something we can remove carelessly... it's a miracle that she is still alive," he said.I let my eyes run through
