Mia’s pov “I-” I began to speak but trailed off after a few moments. His stare was so intense and unnerving, it made me feel extremely uneasy.A few moments passed and when I didn’t attempt to speak again, I watched as he let out a loud scoff and a shake of his head. Thinking he had already dropped it, I let out a long exhale, right before he began to inch towards me. My eyes widened and I tried to still hold the eye contact, but once he took another step closer, I hastily averted my gaze and took a step backwards.“Did I say you could look away?” His voice echoed around me almost immediately and once again, I found myself forcing myself to stare up into his face. My heart was pounding harshly against the side of my chest and I have a feeling he can currently hear it, from how loud it was echoing in my ears.“You’re getting real mouthy now, aren’t you?” He finally breathed out, standing a few feet away from me. My heart heaved was I shook my head hastily.“You’re not? But you had
Mia’s pov When I finally exited the bedroom, I hesitated briefly before slowly making my way down the stairs. I glanced down at the shirt I had on to make sure my nipples weren't poking through, like I had done a few times in the bedroom, moments ago.As I slowly walked through the house, and into the kitchen, I glanced around for Lorenzo, and then I let out a relived breath once I was in the kitchen on realizing that he’s not hovering around.The second thing I realized moments later, was that the house was void of any maid. Unlike how the house I had been held in right after I had been abducted was always bursting with maids, this one was completely empty of them right now.I remember seeing a few maids on the day Lorenzo and I had arrived here, and even the day after.Perhaps he had excused them, just so he could have the satisfaction of making me slave for him.The bastard. I let out a long sigh as I glanced around the interior of the kitchen. It looked really slick and
Mia’s pov TW: mild humiliation.. You can skip this chapter if you’re uncomfortable with that, but please keep in mind that this is a dark mafia romance book. This book would get quite darker and spicier henceforth. You’ve been warned lol.All my love, Ivy.~~~ Lorenzo shook his head, still looking very pissed off, and then slowly, he made his way into the kitchen.His eyes scanned the kitchen and I felt more mortified at the irritated look on his face as he took in the flour that’s literally everywhere in the kitchen.When he focused his gaze on me again, I felt the breath lesve my lungs on a whoosh, especially when he began to inch towards me.He didn’t stop even when he got close to me, forcing me to inch backwards, and to my horror, he kept taking a step closer to me until my back hit the edge of the counter and I couldn’t go any further.A small smirk pulled at the side of his lips as he regarded me like I was an annoying pest here in the kitchen.His body waa caging mi
Mia’s pov The word ‘humiliation’ has never applied to me in my entire life like it does to me right now.I wasn’t sure I'd ever want to actually disappear from the face of the earth like I really want to at this very moment. I watched through wide eyes as Lorenzo exited the kitchen without sparing me another look, and shame so intensely engulfed me. My heart was still racing and it didn’t seem like it was going to slow down any moment from now. I glanced down at my cloth, wrinkling my nose at the dirt all over it. My eyes wandered around the kitchen and I let out a long sigh after a few seconds, knowing that I was going to clean up all the mess I had made by mess. Without wasting much time, I decided to get to work, because I know damn well that Lorenzo was going to flip should he come down here once again to realize that I left the kitchen the way it currently is.I let out a long sigh as I picked up the rag next, and as worked, I couldn’t get the thought of what Lorenzo
Mia’s pov Lorenzo’s face was void of all emotion, which unnerved me in a hundred ways at the same time.The incident that had occurred between us back in the kitchen, hours ago, drifted into my mind in that moment and I found myself flushing in embarrassment as I glanced away.I clasped the edge of my towel and pulled it tightly, feeling completely bare in his presence right now.“Why are you staring at me like a fish out of water? Like you’ve seen a ghost or something.” He rasped out, eyebrows arched and I found myself blinking in confusion, while trying to figure out if he was being for real right now.The reason why I’m currently staring at him right now should be plain as day to everyone who’s a little bit smart. Lorenzo was far from being a little bit smart, he’s a whole lot of smart, so I’m very sure he knows exactly why I’m staring at him the way I currently am.I shifted my weight from foot to foot, chewing at the inside of my cheeks as I made to speak.“You’re staring–” I be
Mia’s pov The relief that flooded me at Lorenzo’s was intense and I instantly tried not to make it obvious on my face.I had begun to feel hungry and the strength which I had used to clean the mess I made in the kitchen had made me drain the little energy I had.I had thought he was going to make me starve for the entire day especially after he seemed to have been extremely angry at me while we had been in the kitchen, but I guess one thing Lorenzo really likes, was to do the unexpected.And this right here, is why it’s extremely hard for me to fire him out. There was no way I’d be able to do that if his personally keeps changing at different intervals.“Oh.” I finally mumbled and then I glanced around for a few moments before slowly nodding my head. Lorenzo was still regarding me pointedly and the look in his eyes made me squirm a little, right before he rolled his eyes in what I’d term as irritation.“You’re still yet to get some damn shoes on.” He pointed out and I jumped a
Mia’s pov “You need to dress extravagantly tonight.” Those were the first words that left Lorenzo‘s mouth as soon as he turned off the accelerator right in front of the large black gate of the mansion.As soon as we finished in the restaurant, Lorenzo didn’t waste time in clearing off the bills. As the bills were getting cleared, he didn’t stop staring at me, making me squirm beneath the intensity of his gaze.As we exited the restaurant, Lorenzo had nodded his head at me before starting to speak.“Go on. I’ll walk right behind you.” Not liking why he was already turning that into a habit, I squared my chin and demanded why he was asking me to do that, but he had warned me to stop asking him stupid questions, forcing me to swallow the rest of words bubbling .in my throat.As I walked right in front of him, I felt his gaze on me the entire time until I got into the passenger seat of his car.“You can catch a little bit of sleep now.” He said right before he started the engine of the
Mia’s pov “Come closer some more.” His voice was husky as he spoke, and as each word slipped past his lips, so did my nerves increase a notch higher.When he had begun to explain where it was that he was taking me to, without me having to ask, had left me feeling extremely shocked because that was something Lorenzo would never do. Even if I had asked him, he’d choose to not reveal any details to me, so it had shocked me to the core to listen to him give me an actual explanation of where we were headed to tonight.On getting to the said destination, I had thought we were going to head into the building almost immediately, not expecting what he said next about me inching close to him.The look on his face unnerved me so much, making it completely impossible for me to hold his gaze. When he had slowly and thoroughly looked me up and down on arriving to pick me up hours ago, I had felt so unnerved on feeling his gaze glide over every inch of my body, that I had wished for the ground
