Fiona povI sat in my room, staring at the calendar on my desk.I couldn't believe that I was already 20 years old, and it was time for me to start thinking about my future.I had always wanted to go to college, and now that I had a personal bodyguard to protect me,I felt like it was finally possible.I pulled out her laptop and began to search for colleges.I had already applied to a few schools, but I wasn't sure if my father would allow me to go. He had always been overprotective, and the thought of me leaving the safety of our home and venturing out into the world on my own was something he had always opposed.But I was determined.I wanted to forge my own path and make a life for myself .I knew that going to college was the first step in achieving my dreams.I took a deep breath and stood up, determined to confront my father about my plans. I walked down the hallway and knocked on his office door."Come in," father called out. I opened the door and stepped inside,my heart racing wit
Fiona pov I left my room and went to the garden , it was my safe place and some where I liked going to and it was a place that only me and Ella always stayed ….I told father to tel everyone else to back off from the place that it belonged to me and Ella and that was what father did exactly …he made it our place so no one goes there except us …he built another garden for them and left this one for us . I always went there when I wanted to cry or read because it was always soothing and nice with the sun creeping under the shade I always use ….I got there and I saw a figure there …I wanted to scream at the person and ask if the person was dead when father said no one should come here except me and Ella so why would the person defy my father and his commands I mean he is the don of this clan …“What the hell are you doing here, didn’t you hear it when father said no one and I mean absolutely no one except me and Ella are allowed in this particular garden ….This garden is ours so sc
Fiona Pov As I continued to watch Marcus, I suddenly realized that he was looking right at me. I froze, my heart racing as he asked me why I was staring at him. I felt embarrassed, heat rushing to my face as I tried to come up with an excuse. But I was lost for words, my mind going blank as I struggled to come up with something to say. I knew I should just tell the truth, but the thought of confessing my feelings to Marcus made me feel even more embarrassed and anxious because I wasn’t even sure of it at all. I just sat there, staring at him mutely, hoping that he would somehow understand and not think I was some weird stalker. I still didn't say anything, feeling like a total idiot as I sat there staring at Marcus. He asked me again“Why are you staring at me “his voice laced with amusement, and I knew I had to come up with something. So I went into denial mode, telling him that he was imagining things and that I was actually glaring at him instead of staring. I knew
Chapter 17 I can’t believe that Marcus kissed me….that is so weird .He always gave me attitude and acted like I was the most annoying human being on earth….He pulled away from me staring at me back with his bored look like nothing happened .“What ….what just happened”I asked “Nothing obviously “he said ..that took me by surprise ,I mean he kissed me ….He took my first kiss .I was furious and pissed,I felt like strangling him and I felt betrayed because I give him something so precious and special to me And he took it for granted,he treated me dirt,like it was nothing like it was just a normal thing that he did on a daily basis . I wouldn’t deny the fact that I’ve heard a few times that he was sleeping with this woman or kissing the maid but I always tried to suck it up because I felt OK he is older and I didn’t want him to not enjoy his life but all I can see right now is someone who doesn’t have any regard for me at all….I’m tired of the way he treats
Fiona Pov As I walked into the kitchen, I was expecting to find it empty. I had gotten up early to make myself breakfast before anyone else was awake. However, as I walked through the door, I was shocked to see my bodyguard, Marcus passionately kissing a maid named Maria on the kitchen counter.I froze in the doorway, not quite sure what to do. I had always secretly harbored feelings for Marcus, but I had never acted on them. Seeing him with someone else was a harsh reminder of my own unrequited love.Marcus and Maria were so wrapped up in each other that they didn't notice me at first. But as I stood there, staring at them in shock, Marcus finally looked up and out eyes met."Emily," he said, pulling away from Maria and looking guilty. "I can explain."But I didn't want to hear it. I turned on her heel and stormed out of the kitchen, tears streaming down my face. I couldn't believe that Marcus had betrayed my trust like this.As I ran back to my room, all I could think about was how
FIONA POVI kept walking around in the garden because I was bored and tired of the house .Marcus wanted to follow me but I had to stop him because I was tired of him following me everywhere when I had the taught of him and that maid making out on the counter of my fathers kitchen .I can't forget that or unsee what I saw and I tell you it was very traumatizing.....I needed fresh air because I felt like everything going on in my life right now was too much and I couldn't handle all Hy being inside my room . I needed to go to college , even tho I know that Marcus was going to follow me to the college ...at least I'll have time to myself and have friends that I can talk too .I love Ella a lot but I can’t deny the fact that it was strenuous and tiring disturbing her with my problems all the time …she needed her own space and time ,everything about her life didn’t have to center around me just because she was my friend or personal maid . I wanted freedom and I was going to do
Chapter 20Zany Usman______________I sat in my office going through all the files that I’ve neglected ….The work was too much for me and I wasn’t focusing on my self like that …..I wasn’t focusing on my family too but I’m happy they know that I’m doing all this for them. I didn’t have any lead on the break in that happened some days ago and that made me feel like I was failing my family …I. Couldn’t even assure their safety and it was annoying …I needed to get that person that put a freaking gun on my daughters head in my dungeon for torturing….. Imagining it makes me so pissed and it motivated me to keep digging to get to the bottom of this . Someone from this house must have betrayed us because no matter what they can’t get into this house ….the security of this house is top notch and they don’t sleep so that means it’s not someone but a group of people. While I was still lost in my thought I heard the door of my office opening and I saw it was Jean coming in.“Hey h
Fiona Pov I sat in my room listening to music…..it was soothing and I felt at peace ….it gave me time to think about my life and everything and trust me the more I thought of it the more I felt like changing it . I kept playing the music ,getting lost in the Melodious sounds until I was disrupted when someone opened the door . I snapped my neck like I wanted to break it just to have a glance of who just walked into my room …..I turned fully and I saw it was dad.It’s been so long since father last visited my room and it was very weird for him to be here right now .I instantly tuned the music down .“Hey princess ““Hey dad”i said in a awkward way because I didn’t know what to say ….I was still pissed at him that he wanted to participate in destroying my future but I promise I was really happy with it and in fact I’ve always wanted that ….Note the sarcasm.“Sweetie I know that you are pissed at me …but you have to you have to understand me that I’m doing all this for the family
Marcus POV Days had turned into weeks and I was slowly recovering from my injuries. Fiona had been by my side every step of the way, and I knew that I had never been more grateful for her love and support.But things were about to take a turn for the worse. Fiona's parents had decided to visit us in the hospital. I had never met them before, but I knew that Fiona was nervous about their arrival. She had always been close to her parents, and I could tell that she was worried about how they would react to the news of our relationship.As they walked into the hospital room, I could feel the tension in the air. Fiona's parents were a stern-looking couple, and I knew that they were not happy about their daughter's relationship with me. Zayn was also there, and I could see the anger in his eyes as he looked at me.Fiona's mother sat down in the chair next to my bed, and I could feel the weight of their disapproval as they looked at me. Zayn stood behind them, his arms crossed over his ches
Fiona Pov I was in shock as Dads men rushed into the room and killed Jonathan instantly. The sound of the gunshots echoed in my ears and I couldn't believe what was happening. Everything happened so fast that I didn't even have time to react.I quickly knelt beside Markus and started to cry really hard. I knew he was badly hurt and I could see the pain in his eyes. He looked at me and asked me to forgive him, he knew he couldn't make it. His words broke my heart into pieces. I couldn't imagine life without him.I looked at him and said, "I won't forgive you Markus, I don't want you to die at all, not to talk of dying a peaceful death. I want you to stay alive and make it up to me every day of your life for using me." I could see the shock on his face as I spoke those words.He then confessed his love to me and apologized for everything he had done. His words were so sincere and full of love. I could see the pain in his eyes and I knew he was truly sorry. I couldn't help but confess m
Marcus povI couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Zayn being brought into the room just moments after me. He looked absolutely furious, and I knew that something terrible must have happened. I had been brought into the room by two guards who had thrown me into a chair and left me there, but I couldn't focus on anything other than the rage that was emanating from Zayn.I watched as he stormed into the room, his face red with anger, and I knew that something bad was about to happen. Suddenly, he saw his daughter Fiona, lying on the ground, beaten and battered. His eyes widened with shock and he fell to his knees beside her, his hands shaking as he reached out to touch her.I could see the pain etched into his face as he looked at his daughter, and I knew that he was about to lose it. Fiona was his only child, and he would do anything to protect her. As he gently lifted her head, I could see tears streaming down his face, and I knew that this was going to be bad."What the hell happened t
Marcus POV As we lay there in the garden, catching our breath, I can feel a sense of guilt creeping over me. I know that I need to tell Fiona the truth, to confess everything that I've been hiding from her.But as I start to open my mouth, I can hear footsteps approaching. Panic sets in as I realize that we've been caught.Quickly, we gather our clothes and slip into the shadows, trying to be as quiet as possible.As we make our way back towards the mansion, I can feel Fiona's eyes on me, her expression filled with confusion."What did you need to tell me?" she asks finally, her voice barely above a whisper.I hesitate, unsure of how to proceed. I know that I need to tell her everything, but I don't want to ruin the moment we just shared."I can't say it right now," I reply finally. "But I promise I'll tell you later."Fiona nods, a look of understanding on her face.And then, without another word, we make our way back inside the mansion, our hearts racing as we try to avoid any pryi
Marcus POV I take a deep breath as I park my car in front of the mansion. It's been a long day, and all I want to do is rest and forget about everything that's been happening. But as soon as I step inside, my mind goes back to her. Fiona. The one who has been occupying my thoughts for weeks now. I miss her so much, and yet, she won't even look at me.As I make my way to the stairs, I pass by her room. And that's when I hear it. Her laughter. It's not the first time I've heard her laughing with someone else, but this time, it's different. This time, there's a guy with her. And it feels like a knife twisting in my gut.I stand there for a moment, listening to their conversation. They're talking about some movie they watched together. I don't know who he is, and I don't care. All I know is that he's with her, and I'm not. And that's all that matters.I try to walk away, but my feet seem to have a mind of their own. I can feel my hands shaking, and my heart is pounding in my chest. I'm a
Marcus pov I never planned on becoming a soldier for Zayn Usman, let alone joining the Mafia. But life has a funny way of leading you down unexpected paths. Growing up, I was always a bit of a troublemaker. I grew up in a rough neighborhood and had to learn how to defend myself at a young age. As I got older, my fighting skills only improved. It wasn't long before I caught the attention of Zayn Usman, the leader of the local Mafia. At first, I was hesitant to get involved with the Mafia. I knew it was dangerous and could potentially land me in jail. But the money was too good to pass up. I started off doing small jobs, like delivering packages and collecting debts. But as time went on, Zayn began to trust me more and gave me more important tasks. I quickly became known as one of the most formidable soldiers in the organization. I was feared by both our enemies and our own members. I didn't take crap from anyone and wasn't afraid to use my fists or my weapons to get the job done.
Fiona Pov I couldn’t believe that this was the end ?I loved what Marcus and I had because it felt real. He stopped going to school with me because I asked dad to change my guard so I haven’t been seeing him frequently. My heart ached every time I remember what we had and how beautiful it was it made me cry because he saw me as nothing but a hooker to him. I went downstairs to take some water and I saw him talking to some of the other guards,he lips moved slowly and passionately that I started remembering how they felt on me. His hands moved subconsciously while he was trying to explain some thing to them but I couldn’t stop remembering the way his hands made me feel good all over. I was too in the mood to stand here any longer. I ran to my room ,bathing in like I was comping for war. I ran to the bed and took off my clothes,I’d never done this before and I knew it was going to be weird but I was really turned on right now and I needed someone’s touch even if it
Fiona Pov I was broken,I couldn’t Marcus could do that to me,I thought we were mitre than that but I guess I was just deceieveing my self. He said with so much boredom like he was surprised that I didn’t know,I wanted to cry my eyes out. I didn’t want to see him at all because it felt like I should rip his heart off his chest. I thought things were different between us now but it turns out I was just in my fantasy world and now that world had crashed and I was rudely welcomed back to the real world. I sat on my bed, tears streaming down my face as I clutched a pillow to my chest. How could Marcus think that we were just hooking up? I thought we had something special, something real. But apparently, I was just another girl to him.I couldn't stop crying. I felt like my heart had been ripped out of my chest and stomped on. All the memories we had shared together felt like a lie now. I replayed every moment in my head, trying to make sense of it all. But the more I thought
Fiona Pov I woke up feeling a sense of lightness in my chest that I hadn't felt in a long time. As I stretched my arms above my head, I felt a rush of energy that I hadn't had in weeks. I smiled to myself, realizing that I felt better than I had yesterday morning.The reason for my improved mood was simple: I had talked to Ella the night before. Ella was my closest friend, and the only person who knew what I had been going through lately. I had been struggling with a lot of things - work stress, relationship issues, and some health problems - and I had been feeling pretty overwhelmed.But talking to Ella had been a game-changer. She had listened patiently as I poured out all my frustrations and fears, and had offered kind and wise advice that I knew I could trust. She had reminded me that I was strong and capable, and that I had the power to change my life if I wanted to. And most importantly, she had made me feel seen and heard, which was something I desperately needed.As I got out
