CLARA'S POVAfter madam Irene asked me to take care of things in the kitchen, I did exactly as she asked and when I was done, I went back into my room. I brought out my phone and decided to text Arsenio's Mother as per her instructions.“Hello ma'am…it's Clara.” I wrote and sent it to her.I waited patiently for her response and after a few minutes, I got a message notification on my phone.“Okay Clara…thanks for your message dear, I will save your contact now and please make sure no one knows of our communication and not even my son Arsenio.” She wrote.“I won't ma'am.” I texted back.“Alright, I will text you again soon…take care.”“You too.”About an hour later, madam Irene walked into my room with a worried look on her.“What happened madam??? Is everything alright??”“Do you have any idea where Renio is headed??” She asked.I stared at her with a confused expression on my face as I didn't understand anything she was saying.“I don't understand you madam.”“Arsenio stormed out of
ARSENIO'S POV“I love you.” Clara blurted out.I stood still as I looked at her in confusion wondering if she was aware of what she was saying or not.I walked closer to her and stroked her hair softly and at the same time, I had the strongest and strangest urge to kiss her.Taking advantage of her in her vulnerable state was something I didn't want to do and so I gently removed her hand from mine and walked away.As soon as I got back into my own room, I fell asleep right away because I was still feeling a little bit tipsy from the alcohol intake earlier on.The following day, I woke up and decided to find out more about Clara because her nightmare made my curiosity grow.Before calling Sergio to tell me his own information about her, I decided to use my phone to check the activities that have been going on in Clara's phone.Before I gave her the phone, I had it tapped so I could monitor her messages, calls and what goes on without her knowledge.As soon as I logged into the tapping
WRITER'S POVOver at Rafeal and Seraphina's residence, they got into a heated argument.“I really don't understand why you have been so worked up about this Rafeal.” Seraphina said as she rolled her eyes.“It's been weeks since she went missing and you dare ask me why I have been worked up???”“Oh please, it's not like you gave a damn about her so what's your deal now???”“You better be quiet Seraphina!!! You are the reason why she is missing!!!”“Me??? What did I do??? Was I the one who chased her away???” Seraphina asked.“I fucking told you countless times to leave her the Fuck alone but you and your sons never listened to a fucking thing I said.”“Don't use those words on me Rafeal because you won't like my retaliation….if you like her so much why don't you leave as well and go fuck her???!!!”Rafeal suddenly raised his hand and slapped Seraphina hard across her face.“Don't you ever dare raise your filthy hands at me again Rafael....I am warning you." "You are warning me Seraph
CLARA'S POVThe shock I experienced when Arsenio asked me about the conversation with his Mother was equivalent to the shock I had when I found out my Mother was dead.“How??? Why??? How??” Those were the questions that ran through my head.I genuinely became so scared when I noticed Arsenio's rage and I blamed myself for it knowing fully well the bad blood between him and his Mother and still trying to form a relationship with her.My fear went up the notch when Arsenio held my neck as my airways were suddenly blocked.It suddenly brought back memories of how I was being treated when I lived with my Father and it seemed like the torture from everyone and everywhere I went didn't seem to end.“I see through your pretense Clara and very soon, I am going to find out who and what you are….as soon as that happens, you are either going to be dead or fucking outside the street where you belong.” Arsenio said after he let go of my neck while I coughed trying to catch my breath.Hatred and di
ARSENIO'S POVI paced back and forth in the living room restlessly.“Shit!!!!” I yelled in anger as I punched the wall.“Renio, please calm down…let's go and look for her right now and maybe we can see her.” Irene said.“This is all your fucking fault Richard!!!!! Ever since she came into this house, have you seen her going outside before??!!!!”“I am so sorry boss…it is all my fault…I should have alerted you about it.” Richard said.“But did you do or say something to Clara that would make her want to leave??? I ask because she was quite happy a while ago after we prepared a meal together.” Irene asked.I couldn't tell Irene what I did because deep within me, I didn't want to admit I was practically the reason why Clara ran away.“Sergio, let's go and search for her.” I said purposefully ignoring Irene's question.“And as for you Richard, just pray to whatever you serve that I find her and bring her back here safe.” I said as I walked out of the house.Sergio started the car and drov
CLARA'S POVI slowly opened my eyes as I felt a splitting ache inside my head and for some seconds, I couldn't figure out what was going on with or around me.“Oh thank goodness, you are finally awake.” Someone said beside me.I looked on and saw a girl probably my age smiling brightly at me.The splitting ache I felt in my Head came back again worse than the first as I groaned in pain.“Are you okay??” She asked again.“I guess so…who are you???” I asked in confusion.“Oh sorry, where are my manners….I am Aurora.” “Emmm….hello Aurora, I am Clara.” I said, still confused about the whole scenario.“Oh nice to meet you Cara.”“It's Clara and thank you.” I said as I looked around.“For a split second I thought that you were actually dead because you have been unconscious for a long time now.” Aurora said.“Really?? How long???” I asked.“For a few hours….you were even bleeding from your head and had to get treated.” She said.I looked around in confusion again as the whore place smelt w
CLARA'S POV“Get yourself prepared puttane (whores), you are getting auctioned for sale to the highest bidders.” he said.“What???” I asked in confusion.“You should consider yourself lucky…the other girls were sold as sex slaves.” He said as he laughed.Aurora and I stared at each other with worried looks on our faces.“You both should be excited that you are about to be auctioned off….if you are lucky, you can be sold off to a nice master and if you aren't, well just pray to be lucky.” He said with a smirk.I suspected that something like this was going to happen and now that it was happening, my fear increased.“We are going to get you both dolled up soon so you can look attractive to our bidders.” He said as he taped his fingers and two ladies both walked in.“Get them dolled up real good and I will be back for them in a few hours.” He said to the ladies as he walked out.“Aurora, it's really happening.” I said as tears rolled down my face.“Don't cry Clara….we can be lucky and so
ARSENIO'S POV“We found her boss, but the bad news is that she is about to be auctioned for sale in a few hours.” Piero said.“What did you just say???!!!!” I asked in shock.“A close source of mine told me there is about to be an auction for some ladies in a few hours and he suspects your woman is one of them.” “Fuck!!!!!!” I yelled out in anger.“I am deeply sorry about this boss.”“Where is the auction taking place???” I asked.“That is the information I couldn't get from him….before he could tell me, the line was disconnected and I couldn't reach out to him anymore.” Piero said, further aggravating my angry.“Piero, I want you to get me that information as soon as possible!!!!”“Yes boss right away.” He said as I hung up the call.I dialed Sergio's number as soon as I ended the call with Piero.“Boss???” He said as he picked up.“Where are you???” I asked.“Outside the house boss.”“Come to my room now!!” I yelled as I hung up the call.I paced back and forth thinking of what to
