Sofia's POVMr. Pompous asked me to wait for him to deal with his calls. My eyes darted around the dining room as my fingers played with the spoon between them and I waited for Mr. Pompous.I tried to hold the tears in my eyes but it was extremely difficult to.I've been wrong about him a couple of times and have resolved to never jump to conclusions but he was making it hard for me.When I got close to him, for the first time since I met him, he wasn't emitting his own scent but the floral scent of a woman's perfume.One that's luxurious and concentrated enough to linger it's traces on another."Breathe.... Sofia.... Breathe..." I tried not to speculate even though there was suspicion in the way he spoke this morning.And then he suddenly agrees to that which I had proposed all this while.Sniff!Hearing his incoming footsteps, I quickly wiped my tears and forced a fake smile in the direction he would appear from."Sorry for keeping you waiting..." He came running through the entran
Without a word, I got into the Honda Civic and slammed the door shut.The man himself was shocked as he blinked his eyes at me." Don't stare, pervert, drive me to Astral View Hotel now" My voice was authoritative but he did not move an inch.I still tried to understand why a local hotel was booked. Also suspicious. Instead, he chuckled, "Do you even know me?""Fvck you!" I pulled the gun from my bag and aimed it at his face.Haha.... I would never head out of the mansion alone without protection."Now drive...."A gulp went down his throat and he drove us away...The poor man turns out to be the scaredy cat.I was so impulsive right now and wasn't concerned about the thing I was becoming.As he drove, I occasionally reconfirmed Mr. Pompous' location but kept my gun on the driver even though I wasn't capable of shooting.The moment the Honda Civic came to a halt at the entrance of the hotel, I sprang out and hid the pistol back in my shorts.I had already confirmed Mr. Pompous' curr
Sofia's POV My head was heavy and I groaned gently as the pain slowly sipped out of my head."I think she is awake, get Mario quickly" My ears could pick up the voice of a man around and my eyes slowly blinked open until everything became visible to me.The room was filled with men in black carrying heavy rifles and the scariest part was that they had their eyes on me.I looked around and my heart struck dangerously against my chest on realizing there was more of them.Oh heaven, I was kidnapped again and this wasn't Mr. Pompous, and they don't look like his people as well.These men were Italians. That man called me Princess Di Marco and that was what prompted me to run, knowing I could be in danger.No one is supposed to know my true identity here in New York.I tried to move only to realize my body was stiff and that prompted me to look down.My frame was tied to a metal chair and my legs as well which made me scared as hell. The men soon took their eyes off me to see the one wh
Clancy's POVI groaned loudly as I rolled away from Rosita's body having reached climax.My fingers pulled the wet condom only to realize it was torn and that made my eyes turn dark.I was overtaken with rage and did not hold back at this woman but she enjoyed every bit of it.Has she starved herself of sex for that long?"I have effective pills" She smiled seductively, tugging my arm in the bed but I pushed her gently, "Why should I trust a sneaky woman like you?"I haven't had a child with the woman I truly loved, talk less of the one I now hated with every bone in my body. Rosita tried to touch my face with her fingers but I shot her a deadly glance from the corner of my eyes.She scoffed," You should be happy if I chose to let your seed grow in me. Our child might be a bastard but with my overpowered influence in the Mafia World, he would be twice of me. Don't think too highly of yourself, you're a regional dog compared to me"My hand grabbed her throat instantly and she moaned,
Sofia's POV"That's enough... I've had enough dinner for tonight" I forced a smile at the incoming macho with a pizza and he left.Gulping in the content of the bottle in my hand, the corner of my eyes sighted Mario approaching alone."Are you sure you're filled?" He demanded and I let down the bottle.Pizza at this time of the night, these men are actually soldiers who don't care about their nutrient intake but I love their selfless care towards me though."I had dinner already. Should be in bed" I told Mario and crossed my legs in the X-back wooden chair I was seated.He pulled a metal container not far away and sat beside me, "You'll get enough rest on transport, Princess. We'll leave in an hour so-- But if you want to take a brief rest before then, it's okay""An hour? " That was what caught my attention.I was still having a little hold back about leaving.No, I haven't decided yet but they believe I have.Despite the betrayal of the pompous man, my heart still had strings tied t
Author's POVFrom the backseat where Sofia sat, she could see the choppers in the air unleashing missiles at the junkyard and the military tanks approaching from different directions shot explosives endlessly.It was now she realized the entire place had been surrounded and there was no way Mario and his people would have stood a chance.They didn't have to take their lives but then even if they stood their hide, these explosive attacks would have killed them.Taking their lives was logical but she wasn't mentally prepared to live with the guilt.Now she believed she was responsible for the death of both father and son.Mario was determined to help her out of New York and bring glory to the name of his neglected family but failed in the end.To her, he wasn't a failure but it didn't matter anymore, he's gone, they're all gone."Sofia, talk to me...." Clancy urged her and he glanced back in the direction she was seated but she remained mute with tears still in her eyes. He has been tr
Sofia's POVJames was sincerely trying to help me the entire time and wasn't a pervert who just had his eyes on me.I was blinded by my love for Mr. Pompous and ignored the slightest advance from any man.He must have played his role of an Informant so well to not be noticed by the King of the City."Sir Almond Yuturo will call you now," James told me and I was going to say 'wait' but he already hung the call on me.I took a deep sigh and rubbed my eyes with a line of thought In my head, If James was an informant under the nose or the king, is he also responsible for the funny activities at the office?The virus that I couldn't rid of in the company's security system suddenly vanished overnight and, the infection and fix could only have been done by an internal person who knows the right way in and out.Thinking about it now, James is good with computers from what I hear.My thinking was interrupted by a call from Almond Yuturo saved as 'Master Yuturo' on Mario's phone."Oh Princess,
Sofia's POVThe more I thought about him, the more difficult it was to leave so I simply tuned my mind to remind me of the cheater and the liar he was, ignoring the fact that I was alive because of him.If I hadn't left California with him, there'd be no Mafia Princess to save right now.All credit to him but I gotta go now.My past calls for me.I disabled the footage at the paths I'll take and was about to figure out a way to make him leave the hallway when he suddenly left.He appeared to be heading for his room.Quickly, I took that small window and left.I had my important things stuffed inside a backpack already, knowing there was a chance of never returning to this mansion in my life.And also had to carry my art painting which held good memories of my past.With a pistol tucked behind me, I entered the underground wine cellar to see the tall shelves that held liquors of various brands.Walking between rows of em, I noticed stacked crates around and the arrangement was the beau
