Nora opened her eyes and everywhere was dark, she couldn’t see anything. Her head hurt and she felt restricted. She tried to shake off the feeling she was having and tried to get herself off what she thought was a nightmare but no matter how she tried, it just didn’t work. It felt so real, like she was really being restricted. Slowly, her body started waking up and she realized she was indeed being tied to something and the banging of her head wasn’t an imagination.

“Oh god no,”

She cried softly when she remembered what had happened before she passed out, that man, she hadn’t been overthinking when she thought he was bad. She should have listened to her guts when it told her not to get in the damn car.

Nora forced her eyes open again and pain shot through her. She tried to adjust to the darkness but she couldn’t see anything. She was practically blind without her glasses anyway and they were not on her anymore, she couldn’t feel them.

Nora knew she was in big trouble and it would only take a miracle for her to be found, she was alone in a foreign land and somewhere she didn’t know with a man whose face she cannot remember fully. She didn’t need a prophet to tell her that she was in big trouble and that there might be no way out of there. She was going to die in a foreign and the only person who would truly mourn her passing would not be able to find her body. The tarot reader had been right when she had told her that doom was ahead of her. She had brushed it off and now she wished she didn’t. Maybe if she had taken it seriously, she wouldn't have continued her plans to come to Italy and she wouldn't be here right now, chained to a chair in a dark room.

“Please save me,”

She cried as the pain in her head spread to other parts of her body. She tried to move but she was tied too tight she couldn’t even move. She was getting used to the dark, the place she was in looked like some kind of dump or maybe a room in an abandoned house, she couldn’t quite tell and she also couldn’t tell why she was there. She hasn’t been up to anything bad. She couldn’t remember having any enemy that might have had her in mind. Not to mention this was her first time in Italy and she wasn’t even here to do anything dangerous that might have led to her being kidnapped so whoever is doing this to her must think she is some kind of rich foreigner and wanted to get some cash out of her. If only they know.

She heard someone unlock the door to the place she was in and her heart beat increased in fear. It didn’t take long for the shadow of a huge figure to appear in the room bringing some light with him. He switched on the light in the room and she had to close her eyes as the sudden light almost blinded her.

“You are finally awake, good,”

Nora heard him say. She opened her eyes slowly to see who was talking but her vision was blurry and she couldn’t make out if it was the man that had kidnapped her from the airport or if it was someone else. His accent wasn’t as much as it was at the airport so she assumed it was someone else.

“Who are you and why did you bring me here? What do you want from me? I am not rich. You won’t get any money from me,”

Nora cried out. If they brought her here because they thought she was rich, they were about to be very disappointed because all she had to her name was the house her parents left for her and her old SUV that she has been using since she was twenty-one. She was sure if she sold it, it wouldn't be worth much. Yes, her job pays her but she had to pay for all her degrees too so that’s where all her money went and her other savings were for emergencies but not big enough for a ransom. If she was here because of money, they just caught the wrong person.

“Hello, why am I here? Let me go please,”

She let out when the person that walked into the room didn’t say any other words.

“We will or we might not, depending on what the boss wants and how well you cooperate,”

She saw the face of the person talking and her heart sank in fear, he was hideous and huge. He looked everything like a hardened criminal and the gun he held further proved the kind of person he was. She knew then and there that the chances of her getting out of there alive were next to none.

“What do you want? Money? I don’t have money? I am just a foreigner here in Italy for a couple of months. I am not a rich woman, just let me go,”

Nora let out even while knowing he wasn’t going to listen to her. The door opened again and another man entered. She recognized him almost immediately. He was the one that had kidnapped her from the airport. With the way he looked, how could she have thought it was safe to get into a vehicle with him when normally, she would avoid anyone that so much as looked like they could hurt a fly, why did she have to let her guard down in a foreign country and how would she be able to get herself out of this mess?

The two men ignored her and were talking to each other, two more men walked in and they started speaking in Italian. She couldn’t get anything they were saying but by their body language, she knew she was in big trouble.

    “So? You are the one that messed everything up?”One of the last two men that walked in asked, walking towards her. He looked not much different from the rest but his body was leaner compared to the other three and he was the only one not holding a gun. “What did I do?”She recoiled in fear as he got close to her. He smelled of alcohol and cigars. She turned her face away from him but he didn’t let her as he forced her to look at him by placing his hand on her chin and turning her face to him, she lowered her eyes in fear when their eyes met, and his gaze held pure hate for her and she just couldn’t get why, they literally have never met before. Why would he look at her like that when she doesn’t even know who he was? “You little witch, you thought you could get away forever? It might have taken so long but it is time,”He let out and the smell of cigarette and alcohol hit her again. “I don’t know what you are talking about,”Nora said, which turned out to be a big mistake on her s

    Luca's phone buzzed in his pocket as he got out of his car, he had just arrived in Italy from Spain and wasn’t in a hurry to do anything just yet, he had plans and he was sure they were finally going to push through after two years of setbacks. Days ago, he found out the bitch who took out his family would be coming back to the country and if everything goes as planned then he could finally get even and he had no plans of showing mercy. “Hello?”He called out as he walked towards the elevator. “Boss, we have been trying to reach you, we finally got her,”Nicho's voice echoed over the phone. Luca knew who he was referring to, the wench who had caused him so much, he knew she was going to be in Italy even though he had first thought it was another bait but it was confirmed and he had sent his men to lay ambush, he didn’t expect them to have caught her just yet with how good she has been hiding for years. “Where?”“We got her at the airport, it was pretty easy, we brought her back to

    Nora didn’t need a prophet or a fortune-teller to let her know that the person who just walked into the room was the biggest devil of them all, whatever she thought the others were paled in comparison, she was only able to open her eyes for a moment and saw him just enough for her to give up all hopes that she would make it out of here alive. He was ready to kill and he wasn’t going to listen to her so she might as well give up trying to explain and just face her fate. Death. It cannot be helped. “I want her moved to my house and the dungeon this minute, I will deal with her myself.”His voice was commanding, husky, and harsh. The shiver that ran through her vein at his words was justified because he was terrifying and they were going to move her to a place where it would only be them. He was going to kill her himself and she didn’t even know who he is. Couldn’t even see him properly because she was almost blinded by the tears and the pains from the slaps she got from his men. But sh

    “AHHHHAAAAAHH!!!” Nora yelled as the fire from the cigarette he held sunk into the skin on her shoulder. It hurt so much and she struggled to get away from it but there was nothing she could do with her hands tied but cry. “Please, please, stop,”She cried. “Stop? Do you want me to stop? You didn’t think of stopping when you took out my family? You didn’t think of stopping when they begged you to,”He barked out and she recoiled in fear and pain. “I didn’t do it,” She managed to say before his fist settled in her face. She saw stars and almost blacked out from the intensity of the pain. “What? You didn’t do it? Then who did?”He questioned as he slapped her hard across the face. “I don’t know,”she cried out. “You don’t know? You don’t know? You dare tell me that?”He yelled in her face. “Yes, I didn’t do it. I told you already that I don’t know what you are talking about, I didn’t do anything wrong, I am innocent,”Nora cried. She barely had any strength left, she wanted it

    “Hello?”Luca let out. Whoever the caller is, they were playing games with him because this was the third time that they aren’t saying a word. If they were calling because he got one of them and they are trying to find his location then they were in for a ride because his phone location was untraceable, he made sure of that. “You better speak out or fuck off,”He let out. He had other things to do. That witch was still not saying anything despite torturing her throughout the night and even placing her in the electric chair. Maybe he should increase the heat once he gets back in. If she still refused to say a word by the end of tomorrow, he was going to shoot her and continue the search for the other people himself. He knew he just have to look enough and be patient and he would find all of them that had a hand in his family’s brutal murder. “Luca, Luca, Luca!”The voice over the phone echoed out his name in a mockery tune that set him off. He had expected a male voice but it turned

    They arrived at the hospital and he hurriedly carried her out of the car and ran past the people that brought the stroller to carry her with. He was faster than that damn thing, he knew where he had to go. “Sir, you let’s take it from here,”The doctor stated when he got in and dropped her on the bed. “Doc? Do everything in your power to make sure she makes it alive. I can’t have her dead no matter what, please keep her alive,”Luca pleaded. “We will do our best but you cannot be in here right now,”The doctor said. Luca didn’t wait to be told twice, he walked out of the emergency room and into the hallway, he wanted to punch a wall or someone. How could he have been so stupid and not checked? It should have been the first thing he did. He should have known the killer would not easily have been caught. Those fuckers he pays to do a good job just had to mess things up, they didn’t do their job properly. They acted like some kind of newbies who has never done the job before whereas t

    “I wish sorry can fix your errors Nicho, let me warn you that if anything happens to her, it would be on you, so be ready,”He told him. He wasn’t about to take the fall, he still needed to catch the real villain that killed his family. She managed to get away again but she would not be able to remain hiding forever. Not when he was still alive and breathing. “Bring all her belonging to me, I am going over to the penthouse, I want you there in the next twenty minutes,”Luca ordered over the phone. He didn’t want to go back to the mansion as it was further away from the hospital, he needed to be close by and the penthouse of one of his hotels where he spent most of his time since his family died was the perfect place to be. It was just a ten-minute drive from the hotel to the hospital so he could easily go there in case he was called in. “Yes, sir,”Nicho responded and Luca ended the call. Just when he thought he finally had a breakthrough and would finally deal with those that kille

    “Fuck!” He let out as he sat down and dropped the drink on the table without touching it. He needed to be sober in case the doctor called him. He pulled out the purple purse that lay on the table next to him and opened it. He let out another sigh when he saw the content of the bag. The more he saw the more he berated himself for not doing the barest minimum which was to check and be sure. If he had as much as checked her stuff, he would have known she was innocent but he had been blinded by his need for revenge that he had not even bothered to verify. Her purse contained her passport, her phone, and lip balms, that was it, nothing else. “Nora Morningstar,”He called out her name. Even her name didn’t sound like someone who could do a thing wrong. Her national identification card also bore the same details as her passport and as she had said, it was her first time in Italy as she only had just one stamp. “Fanculo!”He let out in his native language. He felt ashamed and stupid but th

    Nora woke up in a happy mood. Last night was one of the best nights of her life. Not only was she going to be a mom, but she was also going to marry the man of her dreams. She reached out for him but the space next to her was empty, she opened her eyes and the bed was empty, she checked the time. “Fucking hell,”she yelped and got out of bed. She had to go pick Rose up from the airport in less than an hour. “You are finally up,”Luca voiced, he was all dressed while she still had morning. “Luca? Why didn’t you wake me up? Rose will be in soon, I am going to be late,”She let out as she rushed out of bed, she couldn’t believe she overslept. “Relax, don’t be in such a hurry,”He said; she gave him a dirty look, it was all his fault that she slept in. “You had one job, wake me up, and you didn’t do it, don’t tell me to relax, you don’t know Rose, she will be super upset if I don’t show up,”Nora let out. “She is already here, I am just coming back from the airport, I went to pick h

    “Oh my God, he has a ring,”She whispered and tried to get up from her seat. “Stay,”He said in a shaking voice that he had never spoken in before. “Is this why you have been so nervous?”She asked and he nodded, he was still nervous, if she said no, his world would crash. He suddenly didn’t know what to say. “Aren’t you going to say anything?”Nora asked after a couple of minutes. “Don’t tell me you didn’t rehearse what you were supposed to say,”She continued, he did think about what he wanted to say to her but right now, he couldn’t remember anything. “I don’t know what to say, I just know that I love and want you with me, I am not good with these kinds of things, I didn’t know what it was like to feel like this until I met you, I can’t get the words out that would properly describe how I feel for you, how desperate I want you to be mine forever,”He told her. “You are doing just fine right now, you don’t need big fancy words,”She encouraged him.

    Luca watched his woman sleep, she looked so beautiful and peaceful sleeping beside him. He didn’t know what he did to deserve her but he couldn’t thank the universe enough for sending her to him. Now he couldn’t imagine a life without her. two months, the past two months hadn’t been easy for him but with her by his side, he could do anything, waking up each day to her made everything bearable, he had to relearn how to do everything but it wasn’t so hard for him when each time he looked around, she was there cheering him on. He didn’t know how best to pay her back. She came into his life and never looked back, not even when he told her to leave, she vowed to be with him, believed in him even when he had doubts; her words of encouragement, the way she was there each time he was so close to giving up, telling him just how much she loved him. He could say her love healed him. She never asked anything in return but he vowed to take care of her for the rest of their life. He already had pl

    “You bet I will, thank you so much, I will come around soon for registration,”She told her and walked out of the office, it was almost one pm; Luca would probably be looking for her already, Nora didn’t know how he was going to take the news of the pregnancy since they hadn’t talked about having a baby. Maria did say it would be good news so she hoped Luca saw it that way too because even though she just found out, she already loved the baby. “Amore, what took you so long? I was waiting for you,”Luca let out when she walked into his room, he got out of bed and walked to her, wrapping her in a welcoming hug. He could walk now, he was still healing. “The second hug I am getting today, today must be my day of hugs,”Nora mouthed, Luca broke the hug and gave her a look. “Who else are you getting hugs from?”He asked in a jealous tone, Nora laughed. “Don’t look so jealous, I got a hug from Maria,”She replied and went into his arms again. “Maria gets a pass, no one else is allowed t

    “Yes, I am sorry for what I said the other day, I regretted it the minutes the words came out, I was only trying to get you to leave, I feel stupid for doing that, I love you so much, please say you have forgiven me,”He said. she smiled; she already forgave him but she needed him to know that what he said was wrong on all accounts. “Apology accepted, don’t do it again, no one wants to be called a gold-digger by the one they love, that shit hurt like hell, I can’t lie to you and say it didn’t, I am glad you talked about it and apologized,”Nora said and planted another kiss on his hair. “Thank you for coming back, Amore, it won’t happen again, I promise,”He replied. “So, you are feeling good now?”She asked him, lifting his face so that she could see him properly, he nodded. She hugged him and they stayed like that for a couple of minutes before she helped him get back to his room. The days turned into weeks and then months, and every day, Luca got better, it was a lot of work an

    Nora didn’t know what to expect when she walked into Luca’s hospital room after three days away, she set her mind to him asking her to leave again, telling herself that she would turn back and leave without a backward glance if he said anything like that but knowing she would not be able to do it. The last three days were spent doing nothing, she ate, tried to sleep, and talked with Maria who came to visit Luca yesterday. She did tell her that Luca looked down and even asked about her but that doesn’t mean he still wants to see her. She went to his hospital room but he wasn’t there. She saw a nurse who told her he was getting fresh air and pointed her to where she would find him, she saw him before he saw her. There were a few other people in the healing garden but Luca was all alone, he looked up and saw her, his face lit up for a moment before his expression went unreadable again. She saw the few seconds of delight and hoped it was a good sign. “Hey, Luca, how have you been?”Nora

    “I haven’t been to the mansion since and I haven’t seen her, I thought she was here with you, did she leave? Should I call her here for you?”He asked. If she was still at the mansion, calling her to come to the hospital when it was already late wasn’t a good idea. “No, you don’t have to do that,”Luca responded. “Boss? Did you make her angry? Did you both fight?”Nicho asked in a scolding voice. Luca thought about just letting it go and not telling him what happened, he didn’t have to tell him but Nicho was the only other person he could ask about her, and Maria wouldn’t answer him. “Why are you scolding me? I already know I made a mistake. I don’t need you rubbing it in, I kind of told her to leave and she did, I haven’t seen her for three days now and I am starting to think she really decided to leave me, not like I blame her, I said some really hurtful things to her, told her she was around for my money, don’t look at me like that, I regret it,”Luca said when Nicho gave him an

    Luca looked up when the door to his hospital room for the ninth time that day but once again, it wasn’t the one he wanted at the door, Nora, he hadn’t seen her since he told her to leave two days ago, and for the past two days, he had waited for her to show up, he felt like an helpless child waiting for his mom, the problem was he was the one who sent her away, it was his fault and now, he feared she might have taken his advice and actually left him for good. “Why did I even say something like that to her?”He scolded himself; he should have called her back and apologized to her but he had stupidly let her leave. Maybe he thought like before that she would be back. When she didn’t come back that first day, he had thought she would the next morning but up until this moment, he still had not heard from her and another day was almost over. Luca looked up when the door opened, hoping it would be Nora this time but it wasn’t her, it was Maria, the older woman smiled when she walked in, i
