"I'm not going anywhere with you," Arya growled at Hernandez, folding her arms stubbornly.

"Don't make this difficult," he said calmly, tugging her arm softly. "Please."

Juan who was about to leave turned back and walked towards Arya. "Do not be disobedient, follow him."

"No!" She was resolved to stand her ground.

Juan rolled his eyes and scooped her up, flinging her across his shoulder. "Let me go!" She screeched, her legs and arms flailing about but Juan remained unbothered. He walked up the Gran staircase easily and took her to one of the rooms that were empty and placed her down on the bed.

"You are not to leave here," he said ok a firm voice. "Take a shower, everything you'll need is here. A maid and nurse shall attend to you."

With that, he walked out of the room and locked it from the outside. Then he handed the key to Hernandez.

Arya let out a scream she had kept inside her for so long. She was frustrated with everything happening around her. There was no detailed explanati

    Arya went to her old room, pushed the door open and blinked. "Oh," she muttered, realizing that she had moved rooms. She rolled her eyes and walked up the stairs to Juan's room and sank on the bed, quite exhausted from the training. She wasn't sure when she drifted off to sleep, but a sudden rasp on the door made her groan and open her eyes.“Arya,” Belle called from outside. “It’s time.”She got up slowly, slipped her feet into the flats on the floor, and opened the door, rubbing her eyes. Belle was already fully dressed. Her gown was long and black, smooth down her frame with a slit that stopped just above her thigh. Her hair was in waves, and she held a compact mirror in one hand.“Took you long enough,” Belle said, closing the mirror and stepping into the room. “You need to shower in, like, two minutes, then sit your butt down. I have work to do on your face.”Arya didn’t argue. She walked past Belle and headed straight into the bathroom.By the time she came out, Belle had alr

    She walked beside him slowly, her boots making light sounds against the floor as they headed back outside. The sun was much higher now, a little warmer on her skin than before. Juan stayed quiet as they moved back toward the car, and she glanced at him once but didn’t say anything.When they got back to the field behind the training hall, he stopped suddenly."Again," he said, nodding toward the targets in the distance. She hasn't even noticed them the first time. Arya looked at him, confused. "I thought we were done.""One more round," he said, opening the case again and placing the gun back in her hand.She gave him a look but didn’t argue. Her hands were steadier now as she lifted the weapon again. Juan came behind her, closer than before, placing his palm over her waist again, then one hand lightly on her arm to raise it just slightly."Hold your breath," he said quietly. "Just before you shoot."She nodded, her eyes on the target."I can hear your heartbeat," he murmured near he

    “I hope you’re not still sleeping,” Juan said quietly, his voice low near her ear as the light filtered through the curtains the next morning. Arya opened one eye and groaned, pulling the covers over her head.“I was,” she mumbled under the sheets, letting out a small breath as she turned her face into the pillow.Juan chuckled softly. “Get up, Arya. We train before breakfast.”She pushed the blanket down slowly and turned her head toward him. “Train?”“Yes,” he said with a nod, reaching for his watch on the nightstand. “You don’t want to do that right after eating.”“I’m not talking about eating,” she said with a squint as she sat up and rubbed her eyes. “Why are you the one training me? Don’t you have better things to do? Like chasing after the people trying to kill you?”Juan sighed and leaned back against the headboard, running a hand down his face before turning to look at her. “I don’t trust anyone else with a weapon near you.”Arya stared at him for a second, then gave a small

    Juan came back out of the bathroom a few minutes later, drying his hands with a small towel. Arya had already crawled under the covers, her back turned to the door, but she wasn’t sleeping. She heard him stop by the edge of the bed.“You don’t want the lights off, do you?” he asked.“No,” she said quietly.He walked across the room and dimmed it instead, letting the yellow glow fall softly against the walls. She stayed quiet and waited until she heard the sheets rustle as he climbed into the bed.He didn’t come close.The space between them stayed wide.“Goodnight,” he said.She swallowed, her voice coming out lower than she meant. “Goodnight.”The next morning, Arya woke up to find the house unusually quiet. Juan had left early, but his scent still lingered on the sheets. Her clothes were already out, her breakfast had been brought in, and the phone Juan had given her the day she went out with Donna had been placed neatly beside her water bottle.She sat up slowly, stretching, then r

  • The Mafia's Angel    Chapter 21: Moving Rooms

    She closed the last page of her book and stood up, walking to her room. The door was ajar, causing her to furrow her brows in confusion. She pushed it open further, noting how the dresser had been cleared of everything on it. The perfume bottle, her lotion, the little hair clip she always left lying carelessly—all gone. "What the hell?" she mumbled underneath her breath. Suddenly, something twisted in her chest. Could it be that Juan suddenly decided he didn't want her here anymore? She stood still for a moment, trying not to spiral, but the weight in her stomach kept growing. The idea of him suddenly changing his mind—after everything—gripped her tightly. She blinked, forcing herself to stay calm. If he really wanted her gone, would he have let her stay this long? Would he have fed her, talked to her, touched her like he did? Still, the sight of that empty dresser gnawed at her. She stepped back from the room, her bare feet pressing into the cold tiled floor as she turned and wa

  • The Mafia's Angel    Chill, I'm not dead yet

    Hi loves! my last brain cell can't even try being funny. I know, I know, your impatient asses have been waiting three days for an update (which is totally unlike me, right?). So remember that break? The one week... I think I'm going to take it now.
