Elena’s POV

I watched as Dominic left my room, as I felt a mix of emotions swirling inside me. I was angry, frustrated, and scared all at once. But most of all, I was confused.

Why the fuck was Dominic playing these games with me? One minute he was cold and distant, the next he was being charming and flirtatious. I didn't know what to understand about him, or what he wanted from me.

As I stood there, trying to process my thoughts, I heard the sound of footsteps outside my room. I tensed, wondering if Dominic was coming back. But it wasn't him. It was a woman, the same woman who had given me food on my first day here.

“Elena, you need to come with me, I want to show you something” she said, her voice calm and sweet.

I hesitated, unsure of what to do. But her expression told me that I didn't have to worry. I nodded, following her out of my room and down the hallway.

We walked in silence, the only sound being the echo of our footsteps off the walls. I didn't know where we were going, or

  • The Mafia’s Price:Bound By Debt    Chapter 18

    Elena’s POV As I sat there, lost in thought, Sophia seemed to sense my unease. She placed a gentle hand on my arm, her touch warm and comforting, like a calming balm to my tired nerves.“Don’t worry, Elena,” she said, her voice soft and calm, like a gentle melody that seemed to calm my racing thoughts. “Soon enough You'll figure things out. Just be patient and try to see things in a different perspective.”I nodded slowly as I felt nothing but gratitude towards Sophia. She was the first person in this mansion who had shown me kindness and understanding, and I found myself drawn to her warm and caring nature.As we sat there in silence, I couldn't help but think about Dominic. What was his story? What had driven him to become the person he was today? The ruthless mafia boss who seemed to take pleasure in my fear and rage.Sophia seemed to notice my curiosity. “Dominic's past is complicated,” she said, her voice low and careful, as if she was sharing a secret that was meant to remain h

    Dominic’s POVI woke up to the sound of my alarm, the loud ringing piercing through my eardrums and waking me up from my deep slumber.Tired, I Slowly reached over to turn it off, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. It was morning, and I had a big fucking day ahead of me.I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stood up, stretching my arms over my head and aching my back in reliving stretch.I yawned, I had been tossing and turning for hours, my mind racing with thoughts of the meeting with the Russians and the various scenarios that could play out.I made my way to the bathroom, flipping on the light switch, and looked at my reflection in the mirror. I looked like hell, my eyes bloodshot and my face pale. I splashed some water on my face, trying to wake myself up and wash away the fatigue. I rubbed my eyes, as I felt the weight of my responsibilities bearing down on me.As I dried my face, I couldn't help but think about Elena. She had been on my mind all night, her beautiful face

    Dominic’s POVHe nodded, a small smile playing on his lips, his eyes gleaming with interest. “I think we can come to an agreement, Dominic,” he said, his voice filled with a hint of excitement.I felt satisfied with the outcome of our conversation, The meeting was a success. We had gained the Russian’s alliance, and I had come out on top as always. As we shook hands and finalized the details, I couldn't help but feel proud and accomplished. I had done it again. I had secured the alliance we needed, and I had proven myself as a leader, a true player in the world of organized crime.As the Russians left and James and I were alone once again, I turned to him with a soft smile, as I felt nothing but triumph. “That was a success,” I said, my voice filled with excitement.James nodded, smiling back at me, his eyes gleaming with pride. “You did it, boss,” he said, his voice filled with admiration. “You secured the alliance.”I nodded, feeling a sense of satisfaction and pride. “We make a go

    Elena’s PovI stood in the doorway, watching what looked like a celebration unfold before my eyes. Dominic’s men seemed so excited, they were laughing and cheering, their faces filled with excitement. Dominic himself was standing in the center of the room, a glass of champagne in his hand, with a bright smile on his face.I was so fucking suprised as I had never seen Dominic like this before. He was always so serious, so intimidating. But now, he seemed….. happy.I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. I didn't understand what was actually going on with them. Why were they celebrating so much? What had happened? Why were they so happy?As I stood there, trying to make sense of it all, I noticed one of dominic’s men approaching him. They spoke in low tones, their faces were so serious. I strained my ears but they was no way I could hear their conversation from such a far distance.I wondered what they must be up to, I needed to hear what they were talking about because I want t

    Elena’s POV I raised an eyebrow, unsure of where he was going with this. What did he want from me?“I'm willing to offer you a place by my side for the main time though,” he said, his voice low and smooth. “You can help me make decisions.”I was taken aback by his offer, shocked by what he had just said. Me? Help him make decisions? It seemed absurd, judged by my situation. “But there's a catch,” he said, his eyes narrowing slightly. “You have to prove yourself to me. You have to show me that you're loyal, that you're trustworthy.”I hesitated, unsure of what to say. Part of me was tempted by his offer. I was keen to learn more about who Dominic truly was, to understand what made so tick.But another part of me was screaming to get out, to escape from this place and never look back.“What do you say, Elena?” Dominic asked. “Are you in?”I took a deep breath, weighing my options. I could refuse, try to find another way to escape. Or I could accept, play along and see where it took me

    Selena’s POV I walked into the mansion, my heels clicking on the marble floor. I had stepped out for just a few hours, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.As I walked, I noticed that the mansion was spotless, as always, but there then I noticed some kind of disorder. The maids were scrubbing around, cleaning up what looked like the remnants of a party. I frowned, confusion etched on my face.I hadn’t been home for just some hours, and it seemed like a lot had happened in my absence. What had happened while I was away?I quickened my pace, my curiosity increasing. I approached one of the maids, a young girl who was scrubbing the floor with a mop.“Hey, what's going on?” I asked her, trying to sound casual despite the growing feeling of unease in my stomach.The maid hesitated, looking around nervously before leaning in close. “There was a celebration here, Miss Selena,” she whispered. “Mr. Dominic and his men…they were celebrating something.”I raised an eyebrow,

    Selena’s POV I walked down the hallway, lost in thought, my heels clicking on the floor.But my thoughts were interrupted by a voice behind me.“Madam Selena.” I heard a familiar voice call out to me.I turned to see James, one of Dominic's most trusted men, if not the most trustworthy. He was standing right behind me. He was a tall, muscular man with a rugged face and a sharp jawline. He was putting on a black suit and His eyes seemed to bore into mine, as if he could see right through me.“What's up, James?” I asked, trying to sound casual as I didn’t want him to notice the unease in my expression as I had just been brought back from the land of thoughts by his voice. James glanced around nervously before leaning in closer. “I didn’t see you around during the celebration, I believe boss must have told you the reason for the celebration.”“Yes he did James, I stepped out for personal reasons. I’ve seen Dominic, and he has told me the reason for the little celebration,” I responded

    Selena’s POV I stormed down the hallway, and I could feel my heart racing, my breath coming in short gasps. I was trying to hold back my emotions, but it was of no use.As I reached my room, I slammed the door shut behind me and leaned against it, trying to catch my breath. I felt like my lungs were going to explode, like my emotions were going to burst out of me at any moment.I took a deep breath and attempted to calm myself down, but it was no use. I felt like I was fucking losing control, like I was running out of breath.I walked over to the window and stared out at the gardens below. I could see the perfectly manicured lawns, the colorful flowers, the sparkling fountains. It was all so beautiful, so peaceful.But I didn't feel that peace. I felt angry, hurt, betrayed. I felt like Dominic had lied to me, like he had deceived me all these years even though he never for once, mentioned such things I still felt that way.I felt he should have known, should have figured it out that

    Elena’s POVI watched as Dominic’s expression changed, anger and rage creeping into his voice.I knew that he was a dangerous man, and he was going to do everything in his power to find out who was behind the plot.I felt a shiver run down my spine as I thought about what could have happened.If Dominic had believed that I had escaped, he would have been distracted, and whoever was behind the plot could have succeeded in their plan to eliminate him.I looked up at Dominic, “well, I’m glad you didn’t believe it,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper.Dominic’s expression softened, and he reached out, his hand brushing against mine. “I know you’re not stupid, Elena,” he said. “I know you wouldn't try to escape again, when you know it’s fruitless.”I felt a surge of emotion at his words, and I looked away, trying to compose myself. It was strange, but Dominic's words had made me feel…seen. Like he actually fucking understood me.I took a deep breath, attempting to push aside my emotio

    Dominic’s POVI walked into my office, and closed the door behind me with a soft click. I made my way over to the bar, pouring myself a glass of whiskey as I sat down in my chair.I took a sip of the whiskey, feeling the burn all the way down my throat. It was precisely what I needed to clear my head after the night’s events.Just as I was starting to relax, there was a knock at the door. “Come in,” I called out.The door opened, and James walked in. “Boss, I'm glad you’re back,” he said, his expression serious.I raised an eyebrow, my mind immediately flashing back to Elena, as that was the reason James left the hotel in the first place. “What's wrong?” I asked.James hesitated for a moment before speaking. “It’s Elena, boss.”I frowned, my grip on the glass tightening. “What do you mean?” I asked.James shook his head. “I’m not entirely sure, boss. But I do know that she didn’t try to escape. In fact, she’s been in her room the whole time.”I raised an eyebrow, confusion etched on m

    Dominic’s POVI walked out of the bathroom, my eyes scanning the room. And that was when I saw them. Six men, all dressed in black and wearing masks, were scattered around the room. They were all armed, and they looked like they fucking meant business.I didn’t hesitate. I raised my gun and started firing, taking out the men one by one. They didn’t stand a chance. I was a mafia boss, and I knew how to handle myself in a fight.Before they could process what was happening, they were all down. As the last man fell to the ground, I walked over to him and stood over him, my gun still pointed directly at his head. “Who sent you?” I growled, my voice cold and deadly.The man looked up at me, his eyes filled with fear. “P…please,” he stuttered. “Don’t kill me.”I raised an eyebrow, my grip on the gun tightening. “You should have fucking thought of that before you came after me,” I said, my voice dripping with malice.But then, something made me held back my hand. Maybe it was the fear in th

    Dominic’s POVI stepped out of the mansion, the cool night air enveloping me. My mind was still filled with the conversation with Elena, her words echoing in my head like an alarm.I couldn’t quite get over the feeling of pity that I felt towards her. As I walked towards the car, my driver, a well-built, huge muscular man, nodded at me. “Boss, we’ve got quite a situation,” he said, his voice low and urgent.I raised an eyebrow, curiously, as I listened because I was ready for anything and at any time. “What kind of situation?” I growled.The driver hesitated as he looked around before speaking up. “There’s been a rumor, boss. A rumor that your rival is making moves, trying to take over our territory.”My eyes narrowed, This was not a threat I took lightly. My rival had been trying to bring me down for years but failed. I’ve always managed to stay one fucking step ahead. But this time, something felt different. This time, I felt like I was walking into a trap, something didn’t just f

    Elena PovI lay in bed, as I couldn’t get over the shock and confusion that was going on in my mind. I couldn’t believe what had just happened. Dominic of all people, the merciless and cruel man who had taken me from my father without hesitation, had just shown me kindness and compassion.I thought back to our conversation, trying to process everything he had said. He had promised to protect me, to keep me safe from my father’s cruelty.He had told me that he wasn’t a monster, that he was a man who cared about the people around him.But how could that be? I had seen the way he treated his guards, the way he spoke to them with contempt and disdain. I had seen the way he looked at me, like I was nothing more than a goddamn prisoner who had been abandoned by her family. And yet, when he spoke to me just now, his voice was soft and gentle. His eyes were kind and compassionate and portrayed deep affection. It was like he was a different person Entirely. I didn’t know what to make of i

    Dominic’s PovI walked into Elena’s room, my mind still occupied with the silly and surprising conversation with her father. I had so many questions for her, so many things I wanted to know if she’s willing to open up. And I knew that Elena was the only one who could provide me with the answers I was looking for, I hope so.Elena looked up as I entered, her eyes flashing with a mixture of fear and anger. She was sitting on the bed, her back against the headboard, and she looked like she had been crying for quiet some time.I sat down next to her, my eyes locked on hers. “We need to talk,” I said, with a calm and gentle voice.Elena nodded, her eyes never leaving mine. “About what?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.I took a deep breath, trying to gather my thoughts. “About your father,” I said finally. “is he really your father? Because I don’t know why he would be so willing to sacrifice you for his debt.”Elena’s eyes flashed, and for a moment, I thought I saw a glimmer

    Dominic’s povI leaned back in my chair, studying Selena’s expression. She was hiding something, but I couldn't quite figure out what it was.“Selena, come on,” I said, trying to convince her into opening up. “We've known each other for years. I can tell when something’s bothering you.”Selena’s expression didn’t change, but I saw a faint glimpse of emotion in her eyes. “Is it Elena?” I asked, my voice low. “Are you jealous of her?” I continued, trying to bring the words out of her mouth.Selena’s eyes flashed, and for a moment, I thought I saw what seemed to look like anger. But then, her expression smoothed out, and she laughed out loud. “Jealous of her?” Selena repeated, her voice dripping with scorn. “Don’t be ridiculous, Dominic. I’m just worried about you and the organization, like I said earlier.”I raised an eyebrow, Selena was a terrible liar, and I knew she was hiding something. But I also knew that pushing her too hard would only make her pretend even further.“Okay, Sele

    Dominic’s PovI watched in shock as Selena stormed out of my officeher anger and frustration was unbelievable. I was taken aback by her reaction, stunned by the depth of her emotion. What was going on? Why was she so fucking upset?I leaned back in my chair, my mind racing with questions Selena had always been my rock, my loyal right-hand woman. She had never questioned my decisions before, never shown such open disagreement.What the fuck changed? I was so fucking suprised, what’s actually going on with her?I thought back to our conversation, trying to point out what had actually triggered her to react like that. Was it the fact that I had shown Elena to everyone in the house and asked them to treat her with respect? That I had elevated her above the other prisoners?But why the fuck would that even bother Selena? She had never shown any interest in the prisoners before. She had always been focused on the business, on helping me run the organization.Unless…..maybe…… she felt th
