_Saint’s POV_

“What happened to her?" I ask Natalie the moment the door is slammed shut, clenching and unclenching my fist to control my anger.

"She-we-I" Natalie stuttered, clearly unable to form a coherent sentence. Her eyes darts around in fear as she looked for something to focus on.

She knew how I can be when I'm angry.

“What happened was that-" She starts saying then goes ahead to narrate all that had happened earlier today. My anger level increasing with each passing minute.

“So you tell me that you took her to your school and you were once again unable to take care of her?" I exploded, my fist slamming against the wall behind her head.

Natalie flinched and closed her eyes, trembling in fear.

“Who was it?” I growled angrily, doing everything in my power not to let my anger explode.

I didn't forget that Micini was in her room, and she shouldn't see me this way.

“Maxwell." Natalie answered, her lips quivering.

“Maxwell? DaVinci’s errand boy?” I cocked my head asking her and she n

    I stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection, a different person staring back at me.Is this really me?I stared back at the vibrant green eyes feeling both happy and nervous.The dress was a red number — the seductive shade of wine — with a high thigh slits. The back rides low having a crisscross. The sleeveless exquisite dress dips low, forming a V that gorgeously leaves enough cleavage — the whisper of feminity of the woman adorning the dress. It accentuated the curves I didn't know I had, not in a crude way but still looking hot.Matching heels and jewelries adorned me completing my look.I couldn't deny that I thought I look good. And the joy it brought to my heart that after years I could finally look at my reflection and feel pretty. But I was worried about what others would say. Would Saint call me a whore just like Daniel does? Would he think I'm pretty or would he give look at me with the kind of eyes Daniel did. Filled with disgust and lust at the same time. Sh

    Professor Maxwell stood in front of me with a sickly smile on his face, his brown eyes glinting in excitement as he licks his lips, raking my body with his eyes. I stood still as my body shook in fear, praying for Saint to come find me.What is he doing here? I thought this party was for people in the mafia? Does that mean he is part of a mafia too?Different question raced through my head at that moment, eyes darting around to find Saint. I find him a few distance away, talking to people with his back to me. “Excuse me." I muster up courage to speak, about to walk towards Saint.I am surprised when my wrist is held, someone pulling me back to my original position. “Now where do you think you are going? I just got here and you want to leave already?” He asks playfully but I hear the threat in his tone. Looking at Saint one more time, I make an attempt to call him but I'm stopped by Maxwell.“Go ahead and call him. Do you think he would care? In the midst of all these important pe

    "You are mine.”For a moment everything else didn't matter and it was only the both of us standing here.He just said I was his. Saint took my side in front of all these people and called me his.The happiness I felt in me threatened to burst out as a smile spread from one cheek to another. “What are you smiling for? Silly girl.” Saint chuckles as he asks me, pulling my cheek with his fingers."Stop. Stop.You'd get his blood on me." I exclaimed slapping his hands away from my face.I touch my face and truly I had Maxwell’s blood on my face.“Let this be a warning to you all." Saint's voice booms out, getting the attention of everyone which was followed with murmurs.“She belongs to me and anyone who touches her next time would be losing more than his hands.” He threatens and I see them all shudder in fear, their eyes on me.Something moves in my peripheral vision and I turn my attention to it.Slowly I lose the smile on my face, the happiness being replaced with terror, and I desper

    How do you tell the man you love about the man that kidnapped and tortured you since you were a child?The answer to that? I have no idea. I gulp while staring at him, searching for the right words to use.Saint stood still as he waited for me to speak, his face showing patience while I struggled to tell my story. “He is the only person I've known as family.” I begin and Saint's brows furrows in confusion, but he doesn't speak but let's me continue my story."Family doesn't mean we are related by blood, he kidnapped me when I was just a child and over the years my memories of my real family has faded so he's my only family.” I laugh dryly, blinking back tears from my eyes.I thought I was over this. Why do I get scared when I see him? Why does the memories still make me cry? "So Daniel wanted me to be his wife. He saw a five year old and suddenly decided he wanted to make her the perfect wife.”Doesn't that show just how sick he is? “He groomed me over the years, wanted me to be s

    Santino's POV“Who let you in here?" I asked the person currently sitting in my living room, her legs crossed like she owned the place. “Santino darling, that's no way to say hello to your girlfriend you haven't seen in a while." She says, he red lips curling in a seductive smile."You are nothing to me. Neither a girlfriend nor anything else.” I snarled, my fists folding by my side.How dare she come here after so many years and claim to be my girlfriend?My reaction doesn't faze her, instead the smile on her face widens into something more sinister and I wonder why I ever loved her.“I know you're still angry I left you to be with someone else again. But you always run back into my arms whenever I come back. And I wonder what's different now. Is it because of your new toy?” Her eyes darken when she asks this, her lips still curled in a menacing manner. “Watch your mouth." I growled threateningly, ready to throw her out if she as much as threatens Micini.I know Ciara, and I know s

    I paced my room anxiously waiting for Saint. Natalie said the woman downstairs was his ex but she has no idea why she came back.A million thoughts ran through my head and the chances of Saint replacing me frightened me. My eyes kept going to the door as I paced, expecting Saint to open it at any second. Natalie watched me from my bed, worry written all over her face.“Could you stop pacing and sit?" She orders me but I ignored her, still pacing.It had taken a lot for her to get me to shower while I waited, throwing on some clothes over my damp body.The door opened and I took a step forward about to throw myself at Saint but I paused in my tracks when someone else walks in.“Can someone tell me what the hell that woman is doing downstairs? And why is that bastard treating her like some visitor." Luca yelled with anger written clearly on his face.I stared at Luca with surprise as he demanded answers from us.That's right. I haven't seen Luca in days now, it was like he disappeared

    Luca pulled me down just as the bullet went though the glass, cracking it. My heart jumped into my mouth as screams echos around, people running wild in search for cover. Struck with fear, I keep my head down as my heart beats violently in my chest. Daniel is here.. He is here and he would take me. Luca quickly put the car in reverse, turning the wheels sharply in an attempt for an escape.“Keep your head down." Luca orders, a curse leaving his lips as he pressed down on the gas pedal, driving off.I am surprised when I don't hear more gun shots following us.Why isn't Daniel shooting? I raise my head, looking behind us to see Daniel standing next to his car at a distance, a sinister smile on his face.The previous fear I felt earlier was nothing compared to what I feel now as realization dawned on me. He let us get away on purpose, he could have gotten us but he didn't. He just wants to play with me like he usually does. A dangerous game of cat and mouse. “What in the world di

    “Because I have feelings for you." He confesses and I turn to look at him shocked.What!? “Wh-wha- what do you mean?" I stuttered, struggling to form a sentence as I stared in disbelief. He has feelings for me? I find it very hard to believe.I waited for him to laugh and say it was a joke, or for some kind of sign that would show that he was just joking.But it never came, instead his hand clasped around my small ones, making them feel hotter.“I- I don't know what to say." I say truthfully, not knowing the right way to respond to his confession.I wasn't expecting Luca to have feelings for me and I still have my suspicions that he was just playing a prank on me.Natalie had mentioned that Lucas only started talking to me just because be wanted to piss Saint off. How did he fall in love with me? “I know you think I'm messing with you, but I want you to trust me when I say that I'm not.” He tells me sincerely, rubbing my hand with his own.Slowly, I brought my hand out of his grasp,

    I walked down the hallway, my mind filled with confusion and guilt. I had left Luca's room in a rush after kissing him, I couldn't stand seeing the look on his face when I broke off our kiss. To me, it felt as if I was deceiving him, and maybe I was. I had kissed him less than thirty minutes after his brother touched me and I felt dirty. The kiss with Luca still lingered on my Lips but it didn't feel right. Not in the way it should have. Not in the way it felt with Saint.And for some reason, my thoughts kept spiraling back to Saint; I couldn't forget the way he looked at me when I was with his brother.Like I had betrayed him.Why does he have this effect on me? I chose Luca... didn't I?And besides, Saint had Ciara so it really shouldn't matter much. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going.At that moment I just needed to escape and clear my head to figure out what the hell I was doing.Before I realized it, the mansion's familiar corridors gave way to unfamiliar doors

    I swallowed hard, my pulse racing as both brothers stared at me, waiting for an answer.They had just put me on the spot and I was forced to face my emotions.Two pairs of eyes pinned me to the spot, both the same color but they held different emotions.My mind was scrambling, searching for something, anything that would clear the tension between them.Wait, what was I stressing myself over?.. I could just say the truth, what was the point in lying? It was Luca’s room after allLuca is my boyfriend. I was standing in front of Luca's door. I had come here to see Luca.Isn't that what I should say since it was the truth? So why was I hesitating?Was it because of Saint?“I came for Luca,” I said quietly, my voice barely above a whisper. “This is his room, isn't it? I didn’t know you’d be here, Saint.”Saint’s eyes darkened, his jaw tightening as my words hit him.He was expecting me to pick him...He wanted me to say that I was here for him, but why was that?I didn't know he would be

    I leaned against the wall, my chest still heaving from what happened with Saint.What was he trying to gain by doing that?Wasn't it bad enough that I was already conflicted?He just had to come and make me feel things I didn't want to feel.And the look he had given me, 'You belong to me.' But I was with Luca now, why doesn't he understand that?!'But Lucas doesn't make your heart race just like he does.' That tiny voice in my head said and I knew it was right.But still, what had I done? Luca is the one I'm dating, not Saint.I shouldn’t have let him touch me. Worse, I shouldn’t have wanted it. Yet, I had stood here silently, still wanting more.A lump formed in my throat as I slid down the wall, resting my head against my knees.I didn't go through all these problems while I was with Daniel.I don't recall what he had done to me these past two years that I had forgotten, but I'm certainly giving relationship advice to the boy I liked wasn't going to be one.Heck, if Daniel found o

    I felt Natalie's eyes on me, and I tried to ignore it, but it was difficult to. Eating was difficult with her eyes pinning me down, threatening to suffocate me. "Micini, don't you think you have some explaining to do?" Natalie asked and I finally raised my head to look at her. Her eyes held fury as they flickered between Luca and me. She looked like I had wronged her so much and I struggled to find out how.I had simply started dating Luca even though I had no feelings for him, I didn't do anything wrong."Don't question her, Natal-" Luca started, but Natalie was quick to cut him off. "Oh. Stay away from this. You have zero rights to put your unneeded opinion in my business," She hissed, glaring at him. "Your business but yet you're questioning my girlfriend about our relationship," Luca fired back, maintaining eye contact with her.They both looked like they were about to have each other's throats any moment from now.I looked between them both, unsure of what to do.

    _Micini's POV_I had gone to Natalie's room immediately after that, Luca not letting me go see Saint like I wanted to. He kissed my forehead before I went into the room, but for some reason, I didn't get butterflies like I should have. It felt different from when Saint touched my skin and I didn't like it. I pushed open the door slowly, worried that Natalia would be awake but luckily for me her legs were sprawled out on the bed as she snored lightly. I smiled a little at the sight, her comfort never failing to amuse me. I immediately walked to the bed, pushing her legs aside and lying down next to her. The warmth of the blankets wrapped around me and I tried my best to sleep but I was unable to. My thoughts ran at a thousand miles per hour and I struggled to stop them. Luca's kiss on my forehead lingered in my mind. He said we were dating before I lost my memories, then I must have had some kind of feeling for him. Then why didn’t I feel the same as when Saint had missed me.

    My heart dropped to the pit of my stomach, goosebumps rising on my arms.The guard instantly placed himself in front of me, gun in hand.Why did the lights go off? And who has opened the door? Thoughts of Daniel coming to take me away filled me with fear, and I grabbed the guard's shirt. If anything he was going to protect me. "Who's there? Show yourself!" He growled, cocking the gun. There was a figure at the door but we were barely able to see his face. Silently, he stepped towards us and I took a step back, my heart racing in my chest. I was so close to having a heart attack and peeing myself. Just when I was about to scream, the lights came on and Luca stared at me with a confused expression.He looked like he was surprised to see us both here, staring between me and the guard. "Luca?" I hissed, stepping away from the guard who instantly lowered his gun.Luca took out his earphones, looking between me and the guard."What are you doing here?" I hissed at him. I was so terr

    "Santino!" I gasped as I pushed up from the bed, breathing heavily. My chest heaved up and down as I panted, my body covered in sweat. It seemed like I had a nightmare, but who is Santino? The name Santino rang a bell in my head but I couldn't quite place a finger on who he was. He seemed to be one of the people I had forgotten, just like Saint and Natalie. And how did I get to the bed? I wondered, turning to look at Natalie who was still asleep. My head ached terribly as I tried to remember what I did last because I couldn't recall getting on this bed and falling asleep. It seemed like Natalia had been with me since then; her soft breaths echoed through the room, an indication that she was fast asleep.That's right. We were talking to Saint about the mole when Lucas came in. He claimed he was my boyfriend because I was mad at Saint and blamed Saint for what happened to me that way. I tried to remember that particular day, but I was unable to, and then I passed out. But could

    "What are you staring at Micini?" Natalia asked and I turned to her sharply. She stared at me with concern in her eyes, holding me against herself gently.Can they not see Daniel? He wants to shoot us!My mind screamed in fear and I tried to push them to a corner. My heart pounded in my chest in terror, the fear of not being able to save ourselves looming over me. I needed to warn them about Daniel. "What's wrong Micini? Are you okay?" Both Ciara and Natalie looked at me concerned."We need to hide before Dan-" I turned back to where he stood only to find that spot empty. What? Where is he?"Daniel?" They both turned and looked behind us. "Where's Daniel?" Ciara asked, looking around, confused."I swear I saw Daniel standing there right now," I pointed at the corner he was previously, begging them to believe me. There's no way I had imagined that he was here. "There's no one there Micini. I think you're still in shock," Ciara said and I turned to her. Her eyes held pity for me

    I did as Saint had ordered, peeling my clothes off my body and letting it fall to the floor. Last night had unlocked something in me, something that couldn't last without the feel of Saint's hands against my skin. A raging fire that threatened to burn me badly. And oh, how I do love playing with the flames. It was as if something had been freed inside me, something I had locked up all this time while I was with Daniel. I had been reluctant about last night, but it was surprisingly not as painful as I expected my first time to be. I stared up at Saint in anticipation, waiting for his next order. Saint walked up to me in mindful steps, wrapping his arms around my throat and pulling me to him. Our lips connected in a fiery passion, his tongue diving into my mouth and exploring. I instantly wrapped my arms around him, my hands roaming around his body. I could feel my core throbbing, my pussy dripping and I wondered if he felt my desire for him.
