Clancy's POV"Boss, you promised to interview the new models this after, perhaps you might have forgotten" The Vice President of my Company came running from the entrance of the underground parking lot with beads of sweat on his forehead.I stopped abruptly before my vehicle and responded calmly, "Handle it yourself.

Sofia's POVA certain noise buzzed strongly in my head as I watched his broad back vanish into the darkness and soon, The sound of his footsteps could no longer be heard.I wasn't sure if I had successfully thrown myself into a rumbling sea of problems.All I wanted to ensure was my survival in this godamn place. I pretended to be fearless and the dead did not bother me but deep down, I was scared to the bones of my body. I only struggled to do a good job of holding myself around him with a full bladder. The aura he emitted was terrifying and the emotionless stares that comes from his eyes confirms every single threat he dishes out. I rushed instantly to the WC and taking down my pants, freed my bladder of the restriction I placed the entire time. I was relieved the moment I finished and shut my eyes tightly while leaning the back of my head against the wall of the cell.I managed to control my breathing so it doesn't go off the handle and slowly thought about that which recently
I slept off after rolling over the floor all night with a weakened body.My strength was slowly diminishing and deep down I knew I would not last for long.I guess he was giving Hunger a chance to kill me instead of doing it himself.That night, I dreamt about seeing Papà in the cell with me, telling me that I shouldn't be hereI'm the Princess of the Di Marco family and should be rebuilding his empire to its former glory.When I woke up, I understood the deep signal behind the dream.It wasn't a message from my late father's ghost. I don't believe in the supernatural.It was a signal to announce the return of the trauma I'd fought with for years.After meeting Mr. Pompous, I fantasized about him and somehow, his presence in my dreams managed to keep the nightmares.I saw him instead of Papà but lately, I found him for who he is.I hate him for who he is and want to be free from his grip by all means. The hatred has been slowly wiping out the fantasies in my head and it's giving way
Clancy's POV"Thank you, I'll be on my way then" I announced to the fat old gray-haired man standing at the entrance of the apartment with me."Mr. McCain, did Sofia cause troubles for you? I haven't heard from her for about two weeks now since she left. I'm worried. She is like a daughter to me"There was a hint of care in his eyes and I couldn't help but sigh and rub my temple."Sofia is fine but you won't be seeing her anymore. The Removal Van will be here in an hour... Move everything without leaving a mint of her property" I almost yelled at him and my eyes expressed instant displeasure."But Mr. McCain, I have to respect the privacy of my tenants. Maybe you can help me reach out to Sofia so I can discuss with her about--""Shut the fvck up!" I interrupted him sharply while trying not to draw the attention of the pedestrians who might recognize me as New York's famous bachelor."Do you believe I can have your structure demolished in less than an hour?"Blood drain from his face a
Sofia's POV I guess dehydration and starvation would be the death of me.The psycho man wouldn't have the honor to end me then.I don't know how many days have passed since we last met but it feels like an eternity to me.It would impossible to take my mind off that which happened the last time.His leg between me and I ended up getting wet with extreme desire for carnal pleasure.I was supposed to be worried about hunger but instead, my mind occupies itself with desires of the flesh.His words echoed in my ears "Your desire to fvck is high, Senorita. I can give you everything you want. I'll fvck you till your pu$$y becomes mine and mine alone"Was it a threat or a promise or this was his plan all along? Getting me to go down on my knees and submit my body to him.Well, it was working.I haven't been with a man before and a hint of connectedness or rather, pleasure, got me craving for more.If only he knows I've never been touched, he'll prioritize that weakness and use it against me
Clancy's POVI clenched my fist into a ball as I reviewed the footage that captured the moments before Sofia Dante's mental breakdown.My eyes dimmed as I looked keenly into the blue screen watching her crawl to the corner of the cell while conversing with an invisible being."Stay away from me!" I could hear her innocent scream and it triggered painful memories which caused my heart to ache terribly.I could literally tell she was hallucinating as a result of what I had put her through.She looked broken in that state and the sight of it was supposed to bring pleasure to my heart but instead, it brought displeasure.Sofia Dante's situation reminded me of my late sister who took her own life due to depression.We had lost our parents at a tender age and having no guardian were thrown into the orphanage where we were both maltreated.My twelve years old sister was still battling with the trauma that came with our parent's death and it was difficult for her to cope with the constant abu
Sofia's POVMy eyes blinked open continuously until I was able to see the blurry white ceiling above me.Slowly my vision calmed and I took a deep breath while trying to figure out where I am.This wasn't my cell and the cold temperature of the room supported my thinking.Then where I am? Could I be possibly dead?I recall mentally flipping out when I had a hallucination of Papá in the cell with me.I could barely remember what happened but cannot forget being in the imaginary arms of my father and perceiving the cologne of Mr. Pompous.My head really did a good job of messing with me this time.When my stomach rumbled angrily with pain traveling up my throat, I realized that I was very much alive and--Why do I feel comfortable? Is that a comfy bed? Impossible.I adjusted my body to see the blue queen-sized bed beneath me and that's when I realized the needles attached to my skin.What the.....My eyes trailed up carefully to see the IV bags hung above me and could only sigh and seat
