“You smell like love.”- Unknown
Elsie POV
“Let me go!” I shouted out loud. I don't know who the hell they are. They just drove by my car when I was in the parking lot and shot me in a car with tinted glass.“Please, miss. We don't want to hurt you, but we're just following our boss' orders." One of the guys sitting next to me spoke. Judging by their dark dress from head to toe, they looked like bodyguards. My eyes caught this identical scorpion tattoo on their necks which resembles a gang tattoo.“Who is your boss?” I tried to conceal my fear.“You're going to find out later.” He refused to let me know who was behind it.“What is your boss trying to do to me? Are you sure you are taking the right person? I'm Elsie Miller, I've got nothing to do with your boss."“Yes, exactly, Ms. Elsie Miller. You are wanted by our boss.” I’m speechless and I don’t have any idea what to do in this situation. I don't know how I'm getting into this. As far as I remember, I've never offended anyone. I need to figure out how to get away from this situation.After 15 minutes in the car with two scary guys, the car eventually came to a halt. They climbed out of the car and pulled me out of the car. I tried to free myself, but I didn't succeed. My energy can't fight their muscular body. It made me so helpless.“Stop trying to get away, or I'll kill you.” The guy who was driving the car earlier grimaced. His face is terrifying with a deep scar. It appears to be an old scar from a sharp object.“No, I'm not going inside. Who knows what you're trying to do to me. Help! Somebody helps!” I cried out, even though I didn't see anybody nearby.All of a sudden, I felt something hit my face, which made me stumble down the road. My body crashed on the floor, my elbows and knees struck the floor as well. I wheezed because of the pain.He pulled my hair and tossed me over his shoulder to carry me into the penthouse. I can feel tears pouring down my cheeks from the painful feeling and fear that controlled my mind. I was scared but my body felt weak to retaliate.Soon, my sight was clouded by darkness and I no longer remembered the next thing that was happening.Dexter POV“What did you do to her?" I approached her when I saw her bruised face and blood dripping from the edge of her lips. His elbows and knees were bleeding as well. He moved to place her unconscious body on the couch.“My apologies, but she tried to escape earlier.” One of them spoke. I punched him in the face, hating the fact that he failed to follow my order not to hurt her. I'm just trying to frighten her, but I have no intention of hurting her.“I told you don't harm her! Now, leave!" They walked away and left me alone with her.“Damn! If Andrea finds out, she'll hate me.”I scooped her from the couch in my arms with bridal style and put her down on the bed. Her white cloth was stained with blood from her wounded elbows. At the same time, I noticed her knees were bleeding too. Her condition was awful. It wasn't what I planned. This is not how it's supposed to be.I walked to the wardrobe to find the first aid kit. I need to treat her wound to avoid the infection. I gently wash her face with the hot towel and wipe the blood off the edge of her lips. I tried to pull her sleeve, but it wasn't easy to deal with. Thus, without a second thought, I decided to get rid of the long sleeve shirt.I walked to my closet and came out with one of my t-shirts. I unbutton her without hesitation. Well, I didn't have any bad intentions. I looked at her silhouette under the white shirt, she has a lovely silhouette. I gulped while my eyes roamed freely on her beautiful figure. I quickly changed her into my grey t-shirt. It reached above her knee due to her petite figure.Then, I cleaned her injured elbow with the alcohol and bandaged it. I did the same to her injured knee too.She was still unconscious. My eyes scanned her face, she was indeed beautiful as what Andrea claimed. Her dark brown hair, plump lips, and fair skin can really appeal to any guy, but I certainly not one of them.I sat on the bed beside her waiting for her to awake while mesmerizing her beauty. It took so long till I drift to my own sleep too.******************************“He smiled and all I could think was ‘Oh shit’.”- UnknownElsie POVI woke up with a slight headache. I rubbed my eye but I felt pain when I lifted my hand. I noticed my elbow was injured. I scanned my surrounding which I’m not familiar with. My eyes landed on the figure lie next to me, on the king-si
“You make me feel things I didn’t believe anymore.”- UnknownDexter POVToday will be the day she will be here. I can’t approach her in a nice way so I don’t have another alternative but to use my mafia’s way to make her follow my plan. I knew she hates but me but it doesn’t matter. I don’t need love from anyone. I don’t do romance because I knew eventually it will hurt in the end.“Welcome, love.” I greeted her when the bodyguard brought her to my office in the mansion. I asked them to fetch her from her condo this morning.
“God knew what he was doing from the very beginning.”- UnknownElsie POV“Why are you here, Elsie?” Andrea queried.“To visit you, princess. You don’t want to meet me?” I said faking a sad face.“Of course I want to meet you. I’m happy you came to visit me. I always ask daddy to bring me to you but he always busy.” She complained. I laughed, impressed with how her smart mouth uttered every single word.
“Dust settles. I don’t.”-UnknownElsie POVI left Andrea in the room once I put her to sleep. Her room was on the first floor while mine was on the second floor. I look around searching for that guy that forced me to be here. I need to settle with him about the contract or whatever agreement that we talked about before this. I can’t be stuck at this place as his puppet for the whole life.I walked around the mansion alone. Some of the maids were in the kitchen and numerous men patrolling outside the mansion. I don’t know where his r
“I wish I could ignore you as you ignore me.”-UnknownDexter POVToday I clear out some time to spend with my sweet pie but this round with Elsie joining us. Talking about her, it had been two weeks since she avoided me after the incident in the basement. She avoided me at every corner of the house and not even spares me a glance, literally she just treated me as an invisible man that doesn't exist in the mansion.I walked towards the kitchen and saw her preparing the food for our picnic later. She placed the food in the lunch box and put it inside the big basket. Andrea ente
“You are my favorite distraction.” -UnknownDexter POV“It’s time to go, sweet pie,” I spoke as I noticed that we had spent few hours here. The golden globe in the sky was scorching from above and it seems to send fire to the ground.“Ok, daddy.”“Let’s help Elsie clean up first, shall we?”“No problem, daddy.” She showing me the ‘okay’ signs with
“Pain will not destroy you, the refusal to face it will.”- Rune LazuliDexter POVI wore black pants with a white shirt and match it with a dark blue suit. It is my company charity dinner. I will bring Andrea with me and Elsie had to follow to as she needs to take care of her while I’m occupied with few partners. I went to Andrea’s room once I’m ready.“My stomach pain, Elsie. I don’t think
“I didn't fall for you, you fucking tripped me.”- UnknownDexter POV“Mr. Lorenzo,” I called out his name when I recognized his face. Both of them turned to look at me. I snatched Elsie's hand out from his hand while remained a fake smile on my face.“Oh, Mr. Anderson. It’s a pleasure to talk to your partner. We have a great chat just now. I’m asking her if I can dance with her tonight,” he said, purposely want to mess with my mood. I shouldn't take her as my partner today and it wasn't good to let my enemy knows about her.
“I didn't plan to fall in love with you but now that I did there's no way on earth I’m going to stop.” -UnknownAfter one yearElsie POV“Why don’t you marry me?” He asked me the same question over and over again after I rejected his proposal the last few months.“Not the time yet, Dexter,” I said avoided his eyes.“Then, tell me. When is the right time? How long I n
“Feeling that come back are feeling that never left.” -Frank OceanElsie POV“Rise and shine, love.” I heard a familiar voice penetrated my ear drums. Someone caressed my cheek. I slowly lifted my head from the bed searching for the voice.“You finally awake.” I exclaimed, glad to see the view in front of me. I showed him a big smile.
“We all broke our own rules for someone.” -UnknownElsie POVDoctor said he is safe. Luckily the bullet didn’t hit his heart.” Alex, Dexter’s right man informed me once the doctor left the mansion. I blew out a heavy breath while receiving the news.After the shot, his men arrived and they manage to kill the person at the villa. We immediately headed to the mansion and had his doctor treated his wound.“Thank you about earlier, Alex. I wouldn't know what to do if you were not the
“I looked at him as a friend until I realized I loved him.” -unknownElsie POVI made myself comfortable on the coach after succeeding freeing myself from his grip this morning. He was a crazy possessive man. He won’t let me go even in my sleep. He didn't release his grip until morning but strangely I managed to have a good sleep last night.“What is that?” I mumbled in fear when I heard commotion near
“I feel at home with you and that's enough to stay.” -ParthElsie POVHe laid comfortably with his head rested on the headboard whilst busy scrolling his phone. It was weird to be in the same room with him but I got no choice as he won’t allow me to go anywhere far from him.“Seriously? This is what you want me to wear?” I showed him the nightdress from the beg which he claimed the maid prepared it for me.He shifted his focus from the phone to me. I was standing near the bathroom, get
“In love, you loosened yourself like seawater.” -Pablo NerudaElsie POV“How long are you going to lock me in this villa?” I walked to the demon that was busy soaking himself in the pool. I sat at the edge of the pool and dug my legs in the pool while he swam from side to side of the pool.“How long you want to be here?” He answered my question with a question. I rolled my eyes at him irritably.“I don’t want to be here at all,” I confessed while my eyes f

“She likes him.He likes her.It’s obvious to everyone, except them.” -UnknownElsie POVIt had been three days we ran from the city and glad that no one from the mafia world come and disturb our day here. It was so peaceful camping and slept in the tent while enjoying the scenery and the peacefulness without anyone except both of u
“Thinking of you is a poison I drink often.” -AtticusElsie POV“Lucas, hurry up. We need to go before they notice us,” I urged him to drive the car away from my place. He quickly drove away from there and I turned my head to the back to make sure no one was following us. We got this idea last night after brainstorming on the phone for one hour. Now, the mission starts for real which is running away from the mafia. In three hours' time, we will be out of the city for good. At least, we can enjoy our time without any distractions. Ridiculous distraction, if I might add.
