WARNING: This chapter contains explicit content.BELLA’S POVA week had passed since the incident with Moreno, and I hadn't seen him since that night. I had to admit, I was relieved. I was not interested in seeing him or even thinking about him. I had been attempting to clear my mind of everything and concentrate on myself. It was challenging, not when I was in this house, and occasionally the memories would sneak up, despite my best efforts.At the very least, I felt a sense of freedom, finally being able to breathe again. Yet there was always a tense part of me that was prepared for him to come knocking on my door at any moment. I tried to suppress those thoughts, but they always seemed to come back. I was trapped and I was unsure of how to escape it.Clara had become a sort of companion to me. She was always there, humming and bustling around the kitchen, creating delicious meals that I enjoyed. The library had become my sanctuary, a place where I could escape into the pages of a b
WARNING: This chapter contains explicit content.MORENO’S POVI left Toronto the moment I was done, the shipments had finally left and the spy was caught. I had the urge to go back home, these past few weeks in Toronto had been nothing but torture, I just couldn't stop thinking about Bella, I needed to be around Bella she was the only one who made me feel normal, she took away the nightmares somehow I just couldn’t explain how.Throughout my time in Toronto, I couldn’t seem to concentrate I was thinking about the things I could do to her innocent body. I refuse to admit but she’s different from the moment I met her I just knew there was something different about her. But I just have to show her where she belongs so she doesn’t think she’s special and ruin everything I’ve built over the years. It wasn’t easy to get to where I was. I got home and Clara told me she was in the library, I was glad she wasn’t trying to escape again. I opened the door to the library and met her sitting on a
BELLA’S POVI just finished having lunch with Clara, who had been keeping me company for a while now, she had been saying a lot of things that I didn't pay attention to because my mind was elsewhere. I was still struggling to comprehend Moreno. He was both hot and cold at the same time. There was a piece of the puzzle that I couldn’t comprehend. I couldn’t get anything out of Clara and Mateo was a no-go area not after what he tried to do to me.I had planned to go grocery shopping with Clara, I had nothing to do in this house and shopping was a perfect distraction.Clara greeted me with a smile as I came downstairs. She was already dressed and ready to go, her shopping bag in hand. "Shall we head out?" she asked and I nodded. We headed out the door together where we met Antonio.“Need a ride, Ma’am?” Antonio asked me. I was unsure of the distance to the grocery store from the house, so I turned to Clara for assistance. “It's not necessary. I'll be with her and we'll be back before y

Would you like me to bring you a wedding gift”? Luis spoke over the phone. That bastard. “Stay away from her you fuckin’ moron, if you have a problem with me, let’s settle it face on don’t act like a fuckin’ weakling, what do you want?.” I said angrily.“You know what I want Don Moreno, hand over Diaz to me if you haven’t killed him as you claim”. Luis, just like his brother Diaz, was a bastard. He was not important to him. He just found the perfect opportunity to get in a fight with me.He's making threats to harm Bella, not like I'd let him do it. Fuck! I was getting weak, and I wasn't supposed to care what happens to her. I couldn’t risk losing her and going back to my meaningless, boring daily routine of a life. I was already beginning to feel some sort of connection with her.“I have every right to do whatever I w
BELLA’S POVI had spent the day going over and over the thoughts in my head, and I needed to get them out. It was 9:00 pm and I sat in the room, I was waiting for Moreno to come home so that I could talk to him concerning my school, I couldn’t just stay home all day doing nothing.The door swung open and he walked into the room. “You’re awake”? He asked raising a brow. “Yeah I wanted to speak with you,” I said unsure. He went into the walk-in closet and I followed him. “Go on,” he said blankly. I was still trying to get used to his hot and cold demeanor.“Can I go back to school”? I asked calmly. “Mateo will make plans for that tomorrow, go to bed,” he said coldly. “But I’m not sleepy” I replied almost immediately. But he just ignored me and went into the bathroom. At least we could make small talk without him trying to strangle me. I felt a sense of relief wash over me as I realized that he was finally starting to trust me. This was my chance to make my move. But first, I needed to
BELLA’S POVWARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL ACTIVITIES.I stood outside the door to Moreno's study, waiting for him to finish his phone call. I had been standing there for what felt like hours, listening to him argue with someone on the other end of the line. Finally, I heard the phone go silent, and I tentatively knocked on the door twice.I turned to leave when I heard him say, "Come in." I took a deep breath and opened the door, entering the study. He looked exhausted, with his hair disheveled and bags under his eyes. I knew I should have felt satisfaction at seeing him like this, but all I felt was a pang of sympathy. Despite everything, I couldn't help but feel compassion for this man who was clearly suffering. I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't bring myself to enjoy his pain.He gestured to the chair across from him, and I sat down quietly. He started flipping through some papers on his desk, and I felt my heart rate quicken as I waited for him to speak. After

Eyelashes clump together as tears run down her cheeks, the sounds of slurping and gagging filling the room.Pressing myself as deep as I can one last time, I pull back. Stroking my cock a few times, a throaty grunt escapes me and euphoria finds me as I release myself on her face, pumping all the cum from my tight balls onto her pretty little face.Her eyes close tightly as she gasps for air, the mix of cum, and tears creating the most beautiful image before me. My filthy girl finally covered in me.Placing my semi-limp cock back in my pants, I take two fingers, wiping the cum that's dripping down her cheek, coating them. She blinks up at me, her eyes wet with tears as a sob lea
I was stunned by what Moreno said. He called me sounding all tense and worried, now he was acting like a completely different person. I was tired of his cold and hot behavior I had to go and confront him right now.I got up from the bed and headed towards his study, I opened the door without knocking. Thankfully he was alone. “I need to speak with you,” I said as I noticed he was ignoring my presence.“Leave! I’m busy” he said and I scoffed. “I should just leave? I think you have some explaining to do, you called me today sounding all worried now you come back only to confiscate my phone and stop me from going to school, how does any of that make sense? Why do you care if I'm in danger anyway? Good for you, you could easily get rid of me, isn't that what you've always wanted?” I said out of breath.For a second it looked like he was contemplating giving me a response. He took a deep breath and responded with difficulty “Please leave”.I felt my eyes beginning to well up with tears, b
BELLAI called my secretary to inform her that I wouldn’t be able to go to work and that I wanted to take the day off to spend time with my son. Mateo didn’t try to reach out to me again, no surprise there though. I met with Sandra again and I made sure to ask for her name. To maintain discretion, I altered my appearance. I stared at Sandra, as tears streamed down my face. The revelation was crippling I had been with the enemy this whole time, and I couldn’t believe it. Sandra gave me some time to sob, she didn’t mind. She must have been through something too, because what she was doing was betrayal, I didn’t care, Mateo betrayed Moreno by selling him out to his enemy. “You have to be careful, Mateo can't know about this, about our meeting, and about what you just learned, is that possible Bella?” She asked and I nodded. She handed me a phone, “You can reach me with that, my number is already saved.” I nodded and thanked her. "Will I be able to speak with...with Moreno?" I asked desp
BELLAAs soon as Mateo left I couldn’t stop thinking, I was convinced that he was hiding something from me and it had to do with Moreno, I couldn’t trust Mateo any longer until I found out what exactly he was hiding and planning behind my back. He had been acting suspiciously and I plan to get to the button of it. I sat on the chair staring blankly at the wall, lost in thoughts. If I remember correctly, Mateo and Moreno went for the ambush together, Mateo came back barely touched and Moreno missing. Before I was informed of anything, the scene had been cleared and that fake body was found. I closed my eyes trying to remember the painful memory of when Mateo informed me of the bad news. I hit him and cursed him for letting Moreno be in the building when it collapsed, he claimed that he took some of the men out and he was lucky to be alive. There was no flaw in the story and it was difficult to doubt, I had no idea where I was going to start and I couldn’t shake off the fact that Mate
MATEOI had to find a way to convince Bella not to hold a press conference or make her say that Moreno was dead. It didn’t make any difference whatever she said to the public I just didn’t want her to believe Moreno was alive. It was going to make things difficult for me and ruin my plans. The next day I hurriedly went to the mansion to meet Bella and try to change her mind. The press conference was scheduled to hold by noon today and I was at the mansion as early as 6 am. I met her in the study already preparing her speech. “If you’re here to stop me, don’t bother.” She said without looking up at me as I entered the study. “I didn’t come here to stop you, I’m here to support you,” I said shocking her and she looked up and me for a while. “Okay,” “I need to know what you plan to say.” “Exactly what I told you yesterday, I plan to tell them that Moreno is still alive, our stocks are dropping, you know how people in this business do not value and trust women. Inasmuch as I’d love to pr
MATEOI tried to convince Bella to hand over the paper to me but she insisted that she hold onto it. The note was left here recently and there was no way Moreno could have written it, someone must have been playing a twisted game with me.To avoid raising suspicion, I wrapped up the conversation with Bella and offered to drive her home. As we pulled up to her place, she reassured me she was fine, but I lingered.“You're sure you're okay?” I asked, searching her face.“I'm good, Mateo. Go,” she said firmly, her eyes exhausted.I hesitated, then reluctantly left, my mind still racing with questions. Who could be behind this? And why?I went straight to where Moreno was kept, determined to uncover the truth. It was either him or one of my men."Who's been in contact with Moreno?" I demanded, my eyes locked on the guard."No one, boss," he replied, his expression unwavering.The silence was deafening. If no one entered, and Moreno didn't leave, how then did the note get to Bella's office?
DUAL POVMORENO“Can you hear me,” I heard Sandra ask. And I was too weak to answer or even shake my head. What was going on with me? Why was I unable to move my body? “Blink if you can hear me.” She said. And I blinked, “Oh! Thank God, you’re fine, you’ll be fine. It’s the drugs, just stop taking them. You have to stop taking them, no matter what.” She said in a hurry and left the room immediately without giving me a moment to process what she had just said. Ever since the day in that room with Mateo, I was injected with a drug every single day, and it drove me crazy every single time like I was going insane. After taking the shots for 5 days, I was given a pill to swallow every day, they said it was going to help alleviate the symptoms I had and I always took it under the scrutinized gaze of a doctor. So it was the drugs all along? Mateo was trying to drive me insane. Fuck! At this rate, I would not be able to get to Bella in time. The next day, the doctor came in with the drug aga
BELLA’S POVI hadn’t seen Mateo since last night after he somehow ended up in my room. I didn’t know what had gotten into Mateo, he had always kept his distance from me before even after Moreno’s disappearance. I tried not to think about it, but it was so difficult not to. I took a deep breath feeling exhausted, my secretary came to inform me that Mateo was here to see me, and I told her to let him in. Mateo never came to my office, I just prayed it wasn’t about last night.I heard a knock on the door, “come in,” I said calmly taking a deep breath.“Hi,” Mateo said giving me a look I tried so hard to ignore. “Hi, you never come to see me. I guess this must be urgent.” I said.“No, not really, and I’m sorry I haven’t been around here much.” He said as he started walking towards me and he sat on my table like it was the most random thing to do. I took a deep breath trying to ignore how close we were.“You don’t have to apologize, we all have a lot on our plates right now,” I said and wa
The takeover was a lot easier than Mateo had expected, everyone naturally followed him because he was Moreno’s right hand man, while some men left because they didn’t want to be under Mateo. Mateo had thought that Bella would be easy to win over but it was taking too long for her to run to him for help and he was getting impatient.He expected her to run to him crying and depending on him for everything, but instead she had become a strong independent woman. He was there for her even when she claimed she didn’t need anyone. He looked after Gustavo like his own son, deep down he loved Gustavo but he hated the fact that he was Moreno’s son and the thought that Moreno was still alive irked him so much. He planned to use Gustavo to get closer to Bella, but she built up a wall around herself making her unreachable, but she loved Gustavo and she wasn’t going be able to get rid of Mateo easily if Gustavo got used to him. Which was already happening.He did everything a father would do for Gu
SANDRAOn the day I turned 18, the door opened and my name was called out. I quietly got out and walked out of the room. I met a lady outside the room and I was ordered to follow her. She took me to another room where I showered and changed into clean clothes.“What have you always wanted to become?” She asked taking me off guard with her question. “A nurse,” I said quietly and she nodded. I followed her outside the building and into a car, I didn’t ask any questions. While I sat in the car, I looked as we passed buildings, people, trees, families. I closed my eyes to stop the tears from running down my cheeks. It’s been three years with these people and I told myself that I wasn’t going to cry anymore. We got to another building and I followed the lady inside, ignoring the men around. It looked like we were in a hospital but from outside, it looked like an abandoned building. No one spared us a glance as they continued working. She took me to an office and handed off a file to me.
SANDRAI kept begging my father as he pulled me out of the house, hatred visible on his face. “Please don’t hurt me, I won’t tell anyone.” I cried. I was just 15 and came home from school to find my mother’s lifeless body in the kitchen. My dad used to always beat us when he was high, he must have beat my mother so much that he killed her. But he sat on a chair with a white substance which he sniffed on the table. I tried to back away slowly but he had already seen me. “Come here!” He ordered and I shock my head, “If you don’t want to join your mother, do as I say now!” I tried my best to hold in my tears so I wouldn’t annoy him further, but I knew that no matter that I did he was still going to do what he had in mind. Immediately I stood next to him, he pounced on me like I was a prey and he was the predator, I tried to get away from his grip but he was too strong. He subdued me on the floor as he tried to rip my clothes off. “Please father,” I begged, but he didn’t listen. Then I
