Chapter 29: Didn’t show upZaina’s POVIt had already been two months since he kissed me, and after that, he had never shown up again.Just, like, who the hell he is, right? After he did that, I never saw him again in two fucking months.He took my first kiss, and he was the first man who touched me in the places on my body that no one shouldn’t touch.I feel ashamed and mad. So disappointed in myself because I let him do those things to me.I realized I was easy to mess with, and I was not myself anymore. Out of anger, I punched harder on the punching bag in front of me.How dare he touch me? How dare he to play me? How is he to take claim on me?But why am I annoyed? I am supposed to be happy because there’s no annoying man in my life anymore.Which one does heart punch and flying kick the punching bag slide away?I close my eyes and come down myself; darn, I should forget him since he never showed up.I reached for my water tumbler and drank. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and
Chapter 30: Got YouZaina’s POVThey didn’t notice me yet because they were busy dancing on the dance floor. There were six people on the dance floor, including Vane and Kayley.I saw Jane chatting with a certain man on the sofa, and they looked so happy while talking to each other.Then, on another couch, I saw two men, and a lady was in their lap. Overall, there were four women that I don’t know and six men, and this is the only time that I’ve seen them.I really thought there were only three of us who were going to come here, but it ended up being 14. How nice is that?“Zaina! You’re here,” Kayley energetically called me and stood up when she saw me.All of them is stop what they are doing and look in my direction.“Hi?” I greeted.Vane went towards my direction and pulled me closer to the group.“Happy birthday Zaina,” Kayley greeted me too.The only thing I did was nod. This is all new to me. No one really greeted me happy birthday in my whole life.I don’t remember someone doing
Chapter 31: Watch MeZaina’s POVI woke up in the morning and I already knew that I was not at my house.Well, damn it.As I got out on the soft and wide bed, I groaned softly, damn hangover. Geez I will never going to drink alcohol again.I roamed around the area, wondering where the hell I was. I rolled my eyes after I examined the place. This is obviously a man’s room. It smells so manly.When I thought of something, a soft chuckle escaped from my lips. This feels like déjà vu, as if history is repeating itself.When I lost consciousness last time, this is where I woke up. And now I am here again, staying in this room for the second time.I looked at the door when I heard it opening. And there he is, walking like a king.I can’t help but stare at him. He’s wearing a black T-shirt and slacks like the first time I saw him. So damn hot, wait, why am I complimenting him?A wide grin formed on his lips when he saw me checking him up. What?“I see, you’re already awake,” he said and then
Chapter 32: Escape PlanZaina’s POVHe didn’t expect my sudden move, so he didn’t have the opportunity to dodge it. Wouldn’t? It’s a surprise attack, actually.He’s on the floor now, still conscious, but I know he can’t stand up quickly. I chuckled devilishly.For my last move, I gave him a hard punch in the face, which caused him to fall to the ground completely.This is really fun. Beating up a Mafia Boss.“That’s for leaving me and making me look like a fool two months ago.” After I said that I started to run away, run away from him.I’m aware that he will chase me and inform his men to stop me from running away. So, I need to ready myself for a bloody battle.I was not mistaken because a group of Men in Black interrupted me from running, but the heck, I will let them capture me.I run fast and fight back. Ten men were on the floor, unconscious with major injuries. And… I killed three men.Don’t get me wrong, I just protected myself, they nearly killed me. It looks like they wante
Chapter 33: New HaylandZaina's POV"Are you alright, Zaina?" Jane asks me again for the third time. Geez, she's really annoying." Yeah, I'm fine," I replied, repeating what I answered her earlier.She glances at me."Eyes on the road," she immediately followed what I said."I'm really sorry, I really need you to do that---""Stop it, Jane, I told you it's fine." I cut her off. I heard her let out a soft sigh and eventually nodded." Ok, I'm sorry." She whispered but just enough for me to hear.Geez, seriously? Does she need to say sorry every time, even if she didn't do something wrong? I chose not to say anything about what she said, and I just ignored her."Mr. Russo and you were so close right?" She suddenly said.Oh no hold on, did I hear her right? Me and him were close? Nah, close my ass."No," I answered plainly.We will never be close, talking to just seeing him makes me sick. She looks at me with confusion in her eyes." Huh? I have always seen him talking to you and have a
Chapter 34: Find Her!Third Person POV“Who else? Is she with you?” Jane swallows her own saliva hard. How can she explain to him what just happened?She’s panicking and afraid of him, and she violated one of his rules by taking Zaina with him without his permission.And one more thing…She’s not with Zaina anymore. When they got to New Hayland, she left her and vanished like bubbles.After she answers Alexander's call, she looks back to see Zaina, but she can’t see her.And that’s when she starts to panic. She wants to find her, but the transaction needs more attention. She can’t lose that deal; if she does, she’ll be dead to him and to her mother.So, she decided to do the transaction first before finding her, but unfortunately, she still couldn’t find her.“Miss White?” She was pulled back into reality when she heard Mr. Russo’s voice.“Um sir…”How will I start it, she thought?“I’m not joking around, Miss White, so stop wasting my time.” He warned her.“Of course, sir, yes, she’s
Chapter 35: MCP3 ProjectZaina’s POVFor the gazillion times, I’ve been asking myself why I am here again. Oh, right, they just needed my fucking appearance. How annoying is that?“Get your face out of my sight now, Rebecca,” I said in annoyance.But instead of obeying what I said she went so close to me and showed me her irritating smirk.Darn, that’s so annoying.“I’m still pissed, Rebecca, so stop bugging me,” I warned her venomously.Her smirk widened, and she raised both of her hands while laughing lightly.“Okay, okay, fine, haha. Chill. I just can’t believe you’re here now. It’s been already four years since you left.”I calm down again. They are worse than him in terms of destroying my shits. So annoying. Geez, why do I remember that asshole again?“Rebecca Montenegrin Vianco.” By that, she knew that that was my last warning.Her eyes widened slightly, and she immediately moved away from me.“Gosh, why so grumpy—”She could no longer continue what she was going to say because

My whole body was shaking because of the wounds and scars I got from the hand of the bad man who killed my parents.That night, when they mercilessly killed them, they chased me and captured me eventually.They put me into a dungeon, a dark, rotten, narrow dungeon. It is their torture chamber.The five-year-old me, trembling in fear and praying for someone who will come and save me.But…No one came.“Do you know why you are here? Kiddo?” An 18-year-old masked man asked me. I can only see his eyes and it is screaming rage and anger.I just emotionlessly stared at him and never talked. Since they put me inside their territory, I have not talked to them or said a single word.Because of my silence, the man in front of me went mad, he slapped me on my cheeks so hard in the way that I couldn’t even taste my own blood.I did not feel any pain. This is one of the reasons why I hate my condition, a rare condition in w
