All Chapters of Captive Affair: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

KINLEY I knew I shouldn't, but I went over to Gianni's desk and scanned the papers scattered on his desk.I opened a few drawers until I came across a gun casually sitting there. Right besides a tint bag of coke."Right, enough snooping," I shut the drawers and high tailed it out of the room.Seeing the coke had brought back the memory of the hotel and how angry Gianni had been. It also reminded me of who the hell I was dealing with.What had I been thinking earlier, almost sleeping with him? He wasn't the type of man I wanted to be with. He was the type of man I needed to stay very very far away from!I hurried into my room and shut the door, making sure to lock it. I needed to keep my distance from Gianni, I could not allow myself to develop feelings for him. I knew he would probably be annoyed that I had returned to my own room, but I didn't care. Later that night he came knocking at my door and I promptly told him to go away and that I would not be having dinner with him. I need

My feet hurt and I was uncomfortable in the dress. I was pretty sure the make up was getting ruined too. The club itself was pretty nice.There were two large dance floors around the bar area, and an upstairs area with tables where you could eat. There were also a few cages strategically hung with beautiful and talented dancers. "What do you think?" Gianni asked, placing a hand on the small of my back.We were standing at the railing on the second floor, looking down over the club."It's nice.""So, you will accept it?""Maybe." I was still feeling pretty down, and I was battling to change my mood around to anything other than this hollow feeling within."You want to leave? We will come back in the day so you can meet your employees."I nodded, "Sure."He took hold of my hand and we walked out of the club. We had only been there for a few hours but it felt like forever.We got into the car silently and drove away while I looked out the side window."Kinley, what is it?""I'm tired." I

"Why are you dragging me all over?!" I complained like a spoilt brat.Gianni had a few stops he wanted to make and he had taken me with to each one of them.He laughed loudly beside me in the car, "Only one more stop, and then we can go home."I shot him a glare, it was so hot and I was getting irritable.As we stepped out of the car beside a big glass building, my worst fear came true. Paparazzi!After all, he was known as a ruthless business man, and although they tried to prove his involvement with the Mafia, they couldn't.It sure as hell didn't stop them from getting pictures for articles though.Gianni grinned at them, posing for pictures and I rolled my eyes while trying to move away. The man sure had a huge ego."Where do you think you're going?" He put an arm around my waist and pulled me close to him."What are you doing?!" I hissed. I hadn't even done my hair!They snapped pictures of us and I could already imagine the seedy headlines they were planning."Mr Esposito, who i

I had been wondering around the property looking for Gianni.We hadn't really spoken much in the past week after he had shot Talon, and I appreciated that he gave me space. But at the same time, I craved being around him and speaking to him.I hadn't seen him anywhere today and I spotted Talon in the kitchen.With a sigh I decided to check if he had seen Gianni."Hey."He looked at me with a frown, "Hey. You've been scarce.""Yeah. After Gianni shot you..." I trailed off."I'm as surprised as you are. But I shouldn't have disrespected you, so I guess I got what I deserved.""I don't think that makes it okay to get shot in the leg. Anyway, have you seen Gianni today?""Of course you are looking for him. Do you even want to be free from this anymore?"I frowned, did I? I wasn't sure what I wanted anymore."Kinley, do you really think he cares about you? He does not! He doesn't give a shit about you! You are nothing more than a conquest to him because you haven't given yourself up yet. T

I walked into the study watching Gianni and his men going over their plan for the Morello family.The man who had been speaking stopped abruptly when I entered, but Gianni held out an arm towards me and I walked over to him."Everything okay?" He asked while pulling me to his side.I nodded and turned to look at the guns."Continue." Gianni demanded and the man glanced at me hesitantly before going on.I wanted to tell Gianni that Giovanni had called me, since Gianni had given me a phone he and his grandfather were the only ones to ever use my number.Giovanni had asked if I would like to go out for coffee and to see his boat. I quite enjoyed being around the old man so I had agreed, but I knew Gianni would appreciate if I ran it by him first.Luca was back so he would go with me, which made me feel a lot safer with everything going on.Luca was good at his job and he and I were beginning to form a friendship.I paid little attention to what was being said in the room until they bega
