Sighing, Aria walked home from work after yet another boring, non-adrenaline-filled day. Her feet were covered in little blisters that throbbed from standing all day. She worked as a data analyst in an office just a few blocks from her tiny apartment, staring at computers and numbers until her eyes blurred. It was tedious, but it was the only way she could pay her bills, put food on the table, and manage her student loans, which felt like they were about to crush her.But Aria's mind was elsewhere. She used to love cryptography, spending countless hours solving and decrypting secret codes while exploring the dark web. She was good at it too; people even called her a genius. However, something had changed. Aria had stopped working on her codes and messages after her parents were brutally murdered in their home back in Minnesota before she moved to New York. They were found dead, with no leads or motive. The police claimed it was a robbery gone wrong, but Aria knew better. She believed
The orange glow of a burning cigarette was the only flicker of life in the sheer darkness of a stormy night. Taking long drags, Alejandro felt the smoke seep into his lungs. Tall, handsome, and imposing, he exuded an aura of authority that commanded attention. His piercing gaze seemed to bore into the darkness as he sat in his study, fuming about the audacity of someone who dared to enter his territory and kidnap his sister. Anger and worry consumed him as he thought of Sophia, the unexplainable circumstances surrounding her abduction, and the fact that all efforts to uncover the truth had proven abortive.Today marked the fifth day since she had been taken from the estate. How? He still had no idea, especially since every nook and corner of the estate was under the watchful eye of surveillance cameras monitored by his men. He sat unmoving in the dark like a statue, a lit cigarette in hand, grappling with the feeling of failure. Sophia was his only living relative, and he loved her de
Waking up to serious migraines, Aria found herself with her hands and legs tied to a bed, something she never thought could happen to her. The excruciating pain in her head made it difficult to recollect what had happened before she blacked out, and the blinding sunlight streaming through the gigantic windows only intensified her discomfort.Suddenly, the door swung open, and a woman who looked like a Victoria's Secret model entered, dressed in a short, armless gown that accentuated her stunning figure. Even Marilyn Monroe would have been envious of her beauty, Aria thought as the woman strutted toward her, carrying a tray with a glass of water and what appeared to be a pill container.Feeling weak, Aria attempted to sit up but fell back onto the bed. The woman regarded her with an unreadable expression, saying nothing as she forced a pill into Aria's mouth, followed by a sip of water. Aria struggled against her, but her strength was fading. As the woman turned to leave, she said, "Th
Alejandro's eyes seemed to hold a thousand unspoken words, his gaze piercing into her very being. His voice broke the silence, dripping with menace. "I'm sure you now understand the situation?"Aria swallowed hard, her heart racing. "I... I think so," she stammered, sniffing as tears continued to pour down her cheeks. Alejandro's gaze never wavered.“Good! Your brother stole from me, and that’s unacceptable. He also kidnapped my sister; now that’s him signing off his death sentence.”Aria continued to shake, gripped by fear. "I’ll make it right," she promised, crying between her words. "I’ll pay back whatever he stole, and for your sister. I think... I think you’re mistaken. Jacewould never do such a thing," she added, her voice trembling.Alejandro's expression turned livid. "It's not that simple!" he shouted. "Your brother's actions have consequences."Aria's eyes pleaded with him. "Please, don’t hurt me," she begged tearfully. Alejandro's smile was cold. “I’m not promising you anyt
What is this place?" she demanded, trying to hide the fear in her voice. Juan's smile instantly turned into a frown. "This is where... business is conducted," he said, his eyes glinting with something unsettling.Aria stepped back, sensing the darkness and terror emanating from the steel doors. "You’re holding people here, aren’t you?" she asked, her voice trembling. Juan chuckled softly. "Guests, Aria. Just very... special guests," he added with a smile that sent chills down her spine.Suddenly, a scream echoed from behind one of the doors, so loud that she flinched. The sound sent a wave of terror coursing through her. "Who… who’s in there?" she stuttered. Juan's expression turned sinister. "Someone who’s learned to appreciate El Patrón’s hospitality and kindness."Panic surged within her; she knew she had to get out of there, fast. As she turned to leave, Juan grasped her arm, his grip like a vice. She was sure he had left a mark. "Remember, Aria, curiosity can be quite deadly. Lit
Interesting?Were those supposed to be interesting? She thought as her eyes darted around. "There's nothing interesting in here." She muttered. "Oh, so it's fun then." He replied to her, and she couldn't help but move back a bit, seeing as he was getting closer than she could take in. "Look at me!" He ordered, hating that she was avoiding everything about him.She struggled to look up but dared not look him straight in his eyes. "I want to get cleaning." She whispered and he looked around the kitchen. "Follow me." He then dragged her to the stairs that led to the basement, where he got people locked and killed. "Are you going to look into my eyes, or would you like to be thrown into one of these rooms?"She froze.Huh?What punishment was better? She thought as she struggled with the decision. Both of them were like death sentences. She didn't know which was better. "Why are you doing all this to me?" Tears were starting to steam down her face. "Both can kill me! Which way is a bett
Miguel had a lot of fun relaxing for the rest of the day and the next morning being Monday, she got up, got dressed for work, and made her way to Prime Enforcement Agency."Greetings Miss Miguel! There is an urgent meeting going on right now. President Jude asked that I inform you to get involved." Kate, her secretary informed her the moment she stepped her feet in her office. "I see! You may leave." She signaled, and Kate walked out.Miguel sat on her seat and became curious. What sort of impromptu meeting could be going on right now? She thought and after making sure everything was fine, she got up and walked into the meeting room. Everyone's eyes were wide open as she walked in and sat on a seat closer to President Jude."Morning everyone!" She said and went mute. A few answered her in pretense while the rest, who were actually young women, chose to remain mute, visibly showing their resentment for her, but Miguel never gave a fuck about them."It's good you are here Agent Miguel.
"Oh my fucking god! You mean you have his sister in your custody? That's hella iconic. I'm scared of you Miguel. You are fucking awesome." He praised her, the excitement in him very visible that he held her arm and moved her out of much excitement. Miguel wasn't fazed by his excitement. "Do you now believe I'm the best for this job?" She asked him without any ounce of emotion in her voice."No one is taking that away from you. You are the baddest bitch in this game." He swore as she started the car and then drove off. "Oh, my world! I'm in awe of you Miguel. I'm blessed that I have you." He kept praising her. He picked up the phone and called his team, transferring the job away from Anita to her and soon she got to her house. "You are so amazing." He said as he then got into her room and took out his shirt, sitting on the bed like he'd won completely in life.Seeing his reaction, Miguel knew she had won him back and she did that effortlessly. Her man was back to her! She thought and
"You aren't the first man that tried to stand up for his woman; you wouldn't be the last either, so why bother my peace of mind?" Miguel asked as she walked into his office. "Oh right! Just like I thought you would act." He responded and sat down. "Are you trying to blame me right now? Oh, so you enjoyed the compliment?" She asked him folding her hands this time. "That's not the point. I just wanted to ask for a favor. Could you be the bigger person and just try to give her back the percentage I gave to you this morning?" He asked her and she froze in shock. "What? You said what?" She asked repeatedly as she walked around his office. The moment she placed her hand on the gun on one of his shelves, she pointed it at his arm and pulled the trigger, only for nothing to come out. "I can't believe you tried to shoot me." He said to her and she rolled her eyes "Be thankful there is no bullet in it, I would have wasted your useless ass. Never invite me to your office again," she said t
"Wanna die?" She asked Maya who then rolled her eyes. "It's not like you can murder me anyway." She replied, but then, before she could act, Miguel grabbed her with force and hit her face hard on the wall. " "How does that feel? Awesome?" She asked her and walked in with the documents in her hands. Maya couldn't feel her face anymore. She held her belly as though the whole face went straight there as she managed to see straight. "You are such a beast. You fucking bitch!" She cursed and then rushed back to her office and picked up her mirror just to see her face. She saw some scratches on her face and couldn't help but feel pained. She thought about reporting her but after recalling the meeting that later turned against Anita, she couldn't help but force herself to let go. A tear slipped out of her eyes as she then picked up her bag and walked out of the office. "When you fuck these bitches, do you cum right in them? If so then I guess your cum has got some energetic syrup in them.
After a week of chilling in an unknown location, Miguel returned and found her way back to work. The first day of work after her abrupt vacation looked like it was going to be cool for her, but her co-workers seemed to be thinking otherwise. "Someone is back!" Maya said the moment she walked past Miguel in the passage. Miguel stopped in her step. She looked like she was ready to entertain every drama that came her way. "Someone hasn't changed either. You look charged up. He must be doing a really good job." Miguel replied to her and turned to leave, but Maya looked like she wasn't ready to end the conversation. "You are always showing your frustration. I was just welcoming you didn't have to be so rude." She said to Miguel, glaring at her. "I never asked to be welcomed. I walked out of this office to my vacation on my own will and returned on my own will. Is that something you can pull off?" She asked Maya who then looked at the floor in defeat. Miguel was right; she could only l
"And what does Sophia have to do with this?" She asked, sounding very aggravated. "it's high time you quit blackmailing me emotionally. I have had enough of it.""Valentine if you go and let that girl go, there will be no way to find Sophia. I suspect Jace of being with her. If he wants his sister out of here, then he should get my sister out of wherever he kept her. Okay, let me give him the benefit of the doubt; even if he's not with her if he can find her, he will have his sister out. You don't have to try making things easier for him." Alejandro said to her as he did his best to send hints to her knowing that there was every possibility of her telling him everything she knew about them in the mansion. Valentine rolled her eyes. She didn't think she understood why he was saying those things to her. "Whatever. I'm out of here." She muttered and left. Alejandro took a very deep breath as he watched her leave his office to hers and couldn't help but feel very sad. He couldn't believ
Valentine landed on the bed and was thankful that she didn't get injured. She closed her eyes as she tried to get over what just happened. "I am Valentine. You shouldn't treat me this way." She spat even though she knew that the drug he just took was affecting him just like every other that he took. "I'm smashing the fucking Valentine. Get over it!" He replied and lay on the bed. Valentine looked at him for a while and didn't know if she should regret coming over or not. She liked to see his face. If not, she didn't think she would have any business being by his side. She soon got tired of waiting for him to get a grip on himself for a conversation and got up. "I guess my money will be ready the next time I show up." She then picked up her bag and stormed out. She got into her Bentley and drove to a mall near Hernandez's mansion. After shopping for some clothes and shoes, she then made her way back. The moment she got to the mansion, she packed in the garage and personally took out
It was something that happened all the time though. There was nothing to be surprised about. She liked how she was able to get him to bed when she needed it the most. He reminded her a lot about Jace. What she had no idea about was the fact that he already knew a hint about their affairs and, in fact, had heard her calling his name repeatedly. She got into the shower and quickly cleaned up herself. Right after she got out, she made her way into the dining room and noticed that some foods had been served along with several fruits. She ate to her fill and dressed in a swimsuit she then walked towards a special pool made for her and jumped inside it. It took her a while to swim to her satisfaction and right after she was done, she walked into the mansion and looked at the clock. It was 4 pm already. She's had a long day. "I guess I have to check out for a while" she muttered as she then walked into her closet and got dressed. She wore a short royal blue gown that highlighted her beautif
Jace heart ached to know that Aria was in pain where she currently was. He wished Valentine could change her mind, yet he had no idea why he was feeling that way. "Valentine you aren't even faithful to me." He whispered to himself and got up to go speak to her. When he walked into the sitting room, it was easier to spot her. "Valentine!" He called and she looked up from her laptop. "It's been a while. You called me with such a sweet voice." She replied to him, and he was taken aback. "Sweet voice?" He asked himself. He didn't think he was being sweet at all. "I need to talk to you." He said to her, dragged her into her room, and placed her on the bed. "What's all this?" She asked seductively and took out his shirt as she caressed it. "Why do you act like you don't miss me? It's so unlike you." She said and started scratching his ears with her teeth. He stated quiet and after a while and watching her being stupid, he placed her on the bed for a proper conversation. "I would like yo
Alejandro dodged the bullet like it was nothing and looked up at her. "That was stupid." "Well, at least I didn't double-shoot." She retorted and threw the gun to the floor. Alejandro looked at the floor and could tell that it was now bullet-free. "Are you also here to lecture me on behalf of Maria?" "Why do you want to kill her? What's her major crime?" He asked her without mentioning any names, and when she looked into his eyes, she was clear about who he was referring to. "Just wow! So the other one is now so important to my own man?" She asked him and he rolled his eyes. "Alejandro, what have you and your buddy turned this mansion into? A place of loving the damsels in distress? Are you falling in love with her just like Juan is getting smitten by the other maid?" She asked him and he frowned. "If you hurt that girl, I will never find my sister. I thought you had always meant well to me. You used to be close to Sophia." He said to her and she rolled her eyes. "it doesn't chan
Maria didn't think that Juan was someone interested in love affairs so she got a little bit nervous and tried to get out but he held him really well. After about two hours, she finally got out of his bed and resumed her duties and that got her energized all through the day. Later that evening, she settled in Aria's room, refusing to leave there. Juan was scared for her at the same time and headed towards her own room to see if Valentine had gone there to threaten her again, but when he got in there, there was no one in. On his way out, he bumped into someone and when he looked up, it was Valentine. Instantly, he grabbed her by the throat and hit her so hard against the wall. "Are you that brave? Come on! Fight me!" He said to her. Valentine was so stunned that it took her a while to come to her senses, and after she realized that Juan was actually there to protect Maria, she lost it. "She's just a bitch!" "And you are just a bitch! I can end you right here, and trust me, it won't
