“Why hasn't she taken her drugs yet?” The mafia man asked from outside, and from his voice, I could tell that he was pissed, but a little smile appeared on my lips as the thought crossed my mind.He had been different.Theseoasr few days were one that had shocked me with every single second that passed. This notorious man had changed so much that I couldn't keep thinking it was a trick.Does he actually care for me? Or does he pity me? These had been the two questions that have plagued my mind but then, I also knew that I was not ready for the answers because I didn't know whether or not, I actually wanted him.Yes, I want the kiss again if I'm being honest but I think it's just out of curiosity, and the thrill of a handsome dangerous man kissing me.The thought had me imagining it.One of his ha ds in my waist and the other cupping my jaw, and his lips on mine. Tasking, feeling and exploring every single part of my mouth.Just thinking about it, had goosebumps appearing in my skin.
“You still haven't located where he is?” He asks Daniel as soon as he walked into the room.My room has now become their place of meetings as it has not been mine since I took that poison.It's already almost two weeks and I'm actually sick of these men in my room all the time but didn't dare say it out loud.“Not yet Enzo. The man is such a slimy thing. He planned it so well and made us think he was in several different countries. Almost all of which we have our men searching but we need to focus on one if we are going to get any leads.” He stated with a sigh of frustration.The quick look at me while sharing a weird stare with the mafia man, made me think for a second that the man in question was my father.I didn't care, why were they looking at me.“Have you had your lunch?” The mafia man asks as he and the doctor Theo went through some drugs that were apparently the last ones I would take before I make full recovery.I nodded a yes in response knowing very well that I had not tak
“No. No! Please!” I screamed at the top of my lungs as several guns were pointed at me with a chunk of my hair in his hands.It hurt like hell but my scalp has been through much worse.What pierced through my stupid heart was the fact that my father did not even bat an eye at my helplessness and pain, rather he was even the one who suggested that I be taken to do with as they pleased, just to protect himself.Making me pay, yet again, for a crime I did not commit.°•°•°• 1 HOUR AGO My heart thumped in my chest as I heard the horn of his car, every single heartbeat accelerated to a point that a person should fear for their life, but that was already a part of my everyday life.My heart pounding, not because of anything good but out of the fear of my father returning home.I wondered what kind of beating and insults awaited me today as I scrambled to pick every single thing from the couch, chair and path to his room.I did them as fast as I could so that I could get away from his sight
The sharp rocks pierced my feet with every step that I took and although it hurt badly, I didn't think to stop for a second.'I have to get out of here.’ I chanted severally in my head whenever I felt like giving up from the pain and fear of navigatiing through this narrow tunnel.A secret passageway my father showed me when he was still my father.I'm very sure he would never expect that I would remember such a detail after so many years and was trapped in.‘That's probably why he didnt chase after me.’ I said to myself as I haven't heard any steps behind me since I started running. Fatigue began to eat at my very unhealthy and unfit body after running for several minutes.The internal war within me git intense as a huge part of me leaned towards the thought of just giving up.'where am I running to?’ ‘'Does this cave actually lead to outside?’ ‘how do I survive without any money or knowledge of the outside world.’'can I really escape my father who had informants everywhere?’‘Do
The familiar smell of the mansion graced my senses and I almost fainted from anger.Anger at the fact that it took me almost an hour to run out but a few minutes to be dragged back.As soon as we entered the house, the man just go.Letting me fall so harshly, I could swear that I heard a bone in my leg crack.I couldn't help but gruan from the harsh pain that traveled throughout my body.“Thank you for helping me bring my daughter back to me. I'm in your debt”. My supposed father said as he came out, looking somber and grateful.He's such a good actor that if I didn't know him, I would believe all that he said.I hated this man si mubh because he made sure you give me sounds where it will never be noticed so no one suspects that he abuses me and in the contrary, people think I'm his prized possession.The man kept silent, but I could feel the tension in the air and knew very well that there was more to this visit.This was definitely the person who breached the security system.The se
The room was cold, extremely cold, due to a lack of amenities and a huge open window.It was literally a dungeon disguised as a room.There was no bed, no curtains, a disgusting bathroom and dirty colored walls.As sad as it was, I began to wish I didn't run, I wish I had stayed inside and just endured the beating because this was too much.My whole body was bruised and battered but there was no way to treat it. I searched around the room,dragging my body with the remaining strength I had left but could not find any first aid kit.“Pathetic. Utterly pathetic.” I said to myself as a deranged laugh left me. It was either that laugh or deep wailing.Resigning to fate, I just lay on cold floor waiting for my body to succumb to its injuries sndfir my heart to give up from the pain.Then I heard a creak, signalling the door opening, and a woman entered.The look on her face almost made shiver from shame. It was one of disgust, at the room, and at my state.I wasn't shocked through because
My whole body froze with cold, like i was doused in frozen water.“Wife? Why?” I asked but he just laughed and walked out of the room, leaving to go insane with my thoughts.I thought long and hard as to the possible reason why he would marry me.He captured me, only to take revenge, right? Is it not enough to torture me or kill me? Marriage? Never.No!I'll rather die.“Make sure to remove every sharp objects in and found this room, file every sharp edge, and pad the walls with foam.” He ordered, only poking his head in with a smirk on his face like he just read my mind.I wanted to crash out, to scream, to end it, but I didn't even have the right to kill myself, how much more useless can a person be.I didn't even have the time to breathe or think because immediately he left, the workmen began and some women entered, grabbed, and took me out of the room.They took me to a new room that was filled with everything I secretly wished for as a girl, an urge that but stronger whenever
“Now darling, you know what to do.” He smirked as he began to take off his clothes, slowly while maintaining eye contact with me. I shivered from the meaning of his words. Does he mean? No. ‘He hates me too, so of course he wouldn't want anything to do with me’ I thought to myself as I shook my head like a maniac at the possibility of him wanting to consummate the marriage. I heard from my nanny that it means two people who are married having sex after the marriage. She made me know that it was important but also only to be done by a couple in love. “What are you waiting for?!” He yells as he approached me. As the bed dipped, my heart thumped wildly in my chest. I was so nervous that I was mute and unable to swallow saliva. “Who knew you could look this decent? You also have eyes like hers. He commented slowly, looking at me like he was in a trance. “No. Please… please get away from me.” I pleaded asi backed away with every step he took towards me. My whole body was drench

Lorenzo's P.O.VI was filled with rage and the moment I saw Daniel, I landed a punch on his jaw in anger. I specifically told him to watch Sarah's every move and everyone around Sarah, but he neglected his duty.I was about to throw another punch when i saw the person I wanted to hurt the most, right now.Juliet.As soon as my tongue came in contact with Sarah's blood I knew immediately who he was that poisoned her.It was the poison that I had taught her how to use, and in the exact same dosage that I had structured how to use when I wanted to poison someone little by little.The thoughts that I was the one that taught us something that almost killed the one person that I care about pained me very deeply.I brought Janet in when she was about 11 years old. The both of us were on the streets, both of us lost our parents, both of us were miserable at the time, and so when I got help from my auntie I had no choice but to help her to because we were of the same kind at the time, and si
The part was one that felt scary. I had never been to a party but I could tek that this was not an ideal party.The women were pretending and the men also all had fake laughter's. It irked me.As soon as we stepped in, the noise went silent and everyone began to whisper. Talk about hating to be the center of attraction.“Don't leave this spot.” The mafia man offered as he helped me sit down in a chair at the bar, due to my huge dress.I nodded in response and turned away immediately.I was angry at him.Who kisses someone abruptly and then walks away without saying a word, only to come back and drop something like nothing happened and the kiss was just a figment of your imagination.Everytime inremember that kisss, my lips tingle because that was exactly hownmy heart tungked with that kiss. He may be annoying and sometimes, wicked but his kiss out a fire in me that I didn't want.Now, everytime I look at him, my eyes are magnetically drawn to his lips and it scared me that I actually
Lorenzo's P.O.VIt was the day of the event, and I could not pretend that I was happy about it. Most of these business men had relations with the mafia, and if I pick one, I may be gaining an enemy which was why I never associated with any of them.I needed a plus one and Sarah would be coming with me.Somehow, that made it a little better because despite the fact that I didn't want to make another enemy, I hated crowds and events.Too many people somehow made me overstimulated. I preferred peace and quiet.Walking down to my room, I see the jewelry box that contained, an earring, necklace and a rin, that I got for Sarah.It should go perfectly well with her purple dress, and her skin tone. At least, that's what the lady at the store told me after describing her looks and dress to her.Using the door that I created to connect our rooms together, I walk in and my mouth almostwster at the sight in front of me.I hated the way I was so easily moved when it came to her but it appeared lik
For the last two days, the mafia man has been weird but unlike this weird and hoped that this weird would last forever because he was taking great care of me and didn't leave me even when he was going to work. It was like he had to have his eyes in me the whole time.Since the incident with Janet, I had woken up everyday to him sitting by the bedside with his head on the bed beside me.He would wake up early and go back to his room, thinking I didn't know but I knew very well.What was he up to?The switch up was too fast that I could not help but think it was another tactic to fulfilling his promise.“Morning Miss Sarah.” The man who had introduced himself to me as Daniel, comes in with a meal that I had rejected earlier.‘How did they known I didn't eat?’ I ask myself and then realize who it was, and so I saying my eyes at them who were already looking at me, causing them to turn their faces forward and very fast.I couldn't help but smile.“Thank you Sir but I'm not hungry.” I sta
My heartbeat quickened as I jumped up from sleep, awoken by a violent knock on the door. I wondered what exactly was happening and had somehow come up with the worst possibilities possible. The violent knock came again and this time, I ran to the door to see who it was and why the knock was so aggressive. Opening the door, I saw Janet standing on the other side with a crazed look, and oh boy, was I scared. Very scared because this woman was always composed, and calm. “Did master come here yesterday?” She asks with a fire in her eyes that could burn this room to ashes. I wonder what the problem was this time Scared and confused but curious, I nodded a yes to her question. The anger somehow looked like it doubled when I nodded and it made me remember that she hated no words. “Y-Yes, he did.” I responded, my voice shaking uncontrollably as I took a step back with every step she took towards me. Was she going to hit me? Did the mafia man send her here to finish the job? Nah,
Pacing in my room. I pondered on the possible reason why the mafia man wanted me to talk to him so much.Was his who bruised seeing that he was the only one I wasn't talking to?I didn't understand him and I didn't want to if I was being honest.He was in and off and weird, and nice and wicked, and considerate and inconsiderate, all at the same time.It was tiring.I have thought and thought about what his plan for me was. I hated living on the edge and having so many thoughts with no conclusion. As soon as I had this though, I heard the sound of the mafia man's car and for some seconds, I felt cold with fears.Ever since I left my father's house, I had reacted the same way everytime I heard the sound of a car whether it was similar to my father's or not, I felt terror when I hear the sounds of a car's engine.“What have you done to me little traitor?” The mafia man asks as soon as he walked through the main door, knowing that I could hear him from my room.The question caught me of
Lorenzo's P.O.V“Good morning boss. These are the papers that show the amount and types of iron they would like to purchase. Stainless steel seems to be the most demanded for but we are short on it.” I hear one of my staff say but I didn't want to listen.I knew this was business and also knew not to mix any other thing with business but I was angry.I heard my name being called, once twice and then I heard nothing.I was in a conference room but far away at the same time, lost in my thoughts.I had been angry since I woke up and I didn't know how to manage it. The thought frustrated me so much.It was like a thorn I could not get rid ofEARLIER THAT DAY: “I've had enough of your muteness. It's so obvious that you talk to everyone but me and I don't know why.” I said to her immediately she woke up. She slept by my side yesterday and I felt good seeing her wake up beside me, and even better when I saw that she took care of me the whole night.“I have nothing to say to you besides the
