Chapter 1 The Basement
Death. It clung to me like a second skin. Or maybe I was being dramatic, but one thing was certain: if I stayed in this basement another day or night, I was going to die. This was not how I wanted my life to end. I still had dreams I wanted to accomplish. I had so much that I wanted to do, and dying here in this room that smelled like piss and was home to rodents was not part of my plan. I wanted to go back to how things were before. I had not been rich by any standards, but I had been free and content making ends meet. I had an apartment, well, a shared apartment in an affluent neighbourhood. A business that paid the bills. I had thought that with time, as things got better for my family, I could go back to school and study to be something, but all of that had gone to shit the minute my dad called me at three am. One thing anyone must understand about my dad is this; my dad is not a weak man by any definition. He has always been the hero in my life since I was a little girl. Unti
Magbasa paChapter 2 The Contract
Leonardo The door to my office burst open and in came my men, ready for my order. I had given them a clear instruction that if we were not done at a certain time, they should barge in. Olivia's jaw looked like it would drop to the floor while her old man paled on the chair. Either way, I would be getting what I wanted, I always did. I stood up and walked to the liquor cabinet and poured myself a strong drink. I looked at my watch, two minutes had passed and I was getting impatient. The girl needed to know who she was dealing with. "Little girl, I have no time to waste, make up your mind or this will be the last time you see him...alive." I didn't need to mince my words, if she was as clever as she looked, she knew I was not playing around. Many men have died for far lesser crimes. Olivia bit her lower lip and twisted her fingers together. She would make a perfect addition to the list of women that were currently at my disposal. I had been looking for something new, something f
Magbasa paChapter 3: The Contract Terms
Leonardo I watched as Olivia signed the contract with trembling fingers and enjoyed every moment of it. She was now mine, and hopefully, with time, she would be just as excited about this arrangement as I was. “Good job,” I said as soon as she handed me the contract with a sour expression. “Now, the terms are very simple.” I put the contract away, sat back again on my chair, and leaned back. "You are my pet. Which means you do as you are told and when you are told.” She looked at me in surprise. “So you expect me to be on a leash like a bloody dog?” Her nostrils flared. “Tempting but no. You will dress up accompany me to dinner parties, charm my associates, and be available when I need you.” “And what do I get in return for all of this?” “You get to keep your old man alive and debt-free once the term period expires, and you get to be under my protection.” I said, intentionally keeping my voice low, my eyes never leaving her lips. I could tell from her body that she di
Magbasa paChapter 4 Anna
Olivia After eating Rosa's food, which was nothing like the prison food I'd been made to eat the previous week, I walked around my room until the soft covers of the bed won me over and I crept inside them. I woke up feeling refreshed and clear-headed. I looked at the clock next to my bed. I had been asleep for a good three hours and in that time someone had been in my room, there was a new tray of food on the table, which had replaced the one I'd left there after I'd done a good service to the meal. I felt like a cow that was being fattened for slaughter. I took a look at the food on the tray when something caught my attention. It was a note. Maybe Rosa didn't want to disturb me, so she had opted to write me a note. I opened the piece of paper: "Meet me at the patio after your lunch. ~Anna" I folded the note back and looked at the food again. Did this mean that Anna was the one who had prepared this meal, what would Leonardo's wife want with me? I had so many questions and lit
Magbasa paChapter 5 Black Silky Dress
Olivia The day went by so slowly after my time with Anna outside. I went inside and stayed in my room for the rest of the day. I was looking forward to seeing the package that Leonardo had mentioned earlier. I hoped he didn't mean what I thought he meant. Gosh, I was so screwed. The longer I thought about it. The more real it got. Around seven thirty there was still no package, I left the room to go take a shower. After I took a shower, I opened the door to my bedroom to find two black boxes wrapped in black ribbon on top of the bed. Oh, so this was how he was going to play it. Sneak in while I took a shower. I opened the smallest box on top first. It was light, as though it might contain very little or nothing significant. But that was as far from the truth as it got, inside was a wristwatch, and not just any watch. It was the wristwatch we had looked at earlier. The exact same one Anna had shown me earlier. I threw the box back into the bed. That was the reason for all the m
Magbasa paChapter 6 Car Ride
OliviaOnce I had recovered from Leonardo’s attack. I put on the stupid wristwatch and walked to the car, Leonardo was already inside on his phone while Anna looked at herself in the mirror, acting as though she wasn’t aware of the tension between me and Leonardo, maybe she was used to the brooding Leonardo but I was not.The car drove out of the estate in painful silence. This was the first time I was outside the gate since being locked in, and as sad as it was to see, the world hadn’t stopped moving on my account.The car was enormous inside with enough leg room. I still felt as though the walls of the car were closing in on me. I turned my head to the window and focused on the moving scenery.When I felt a hand touch mine, and froze, only to turn and find Anna smiling at me.“Breathe.” she said in a low voice, squeezing my hand to reassure me.Was I that obvious to her? I gave her hand a gentle squeeze and turned my gaze outside again, feeling some weight lifting off my shoulders.I
Magbasa paChapter 7 Eyeballs Following Us
Olivia "Follow my lead. " Anna winked at me as I followed her to the entrance and I gasped out loud when I peeked inside the hall. She pulled me to the side, pretended to smooth out my hair "Take it all in and get used to it." She said while keeping her eyes on my head. I took a deep breathe and nodded, butterflies soaring inside my stomach. This was the most exclusive event I had ever set foot in. How did anyone in their right mind get used to something like this? We entered the function hand in hand and everytime I thought of squirming, I gave her hand a squeeze. If it hadn't been for her, I would have stood out like a sore thumb. We took drinks from a passing tray and looked around. Us looking around was more for my benefit than hers, as she seemed to know everyone present. "There he is." She pointed at Leonardo in a distance and I wanted to roll my eyes. No wanting my mood to get spoiled I looked elsewhere. "I'd rather we didn't." I said looking everywhere but at
Magbasa paChapter 8 The Fundraising
OliviaWe watched as Rachel joined the men, her body swaying from side to side.Anna’s narrowed, but she said nothing. Before Rachel could get Leonardos’ undivided attention, his phone must have rung as he excused himself and took it out, walked away from the group with his phone in hand.“Well, well, it’s time for us to mingle and be merry.” Anna’s voice was light and without a catch of jealousy in it. I nodded as she pulled me along and introduced me to the ‘right people’ as she framed it.Her definition of the right people turned out to be more of the De Luca women. It was now easy for me to spot them. We all had the same wristwatches. And for what it was worth, most of them were pretty decent and friendly. They didn’t seem to mind that I was an addition to Leonardo’s fold.As the night wore on, Anna’s confidence rubbed off on me and I had a good time, and forgot how I got there.Leonardo was now talking and to Rachel, who, from the looks of it, was not having a good time.Anna le
Magbasa paChapter 9 Where the bodies are buried
LeoI took long strides as I entered the warehouse. My shoes made an irritating sound against the concrete floor. The closer I got to where I knew Stan was keeping our guest, the air smelled of sweat and fresh blood.As I approached the door, I rolled up the sleeves of my shirt. The difference between the event I was at and the hell-hole I was about to enter, the irony of it all, did not escape me. Stan immediately came over when he heard me. “Hows our guest, the usual, I hope.” I asked him. “I’m sorry boss, this one doesn't have any of the marking on Diablos’ man, and he won’t say who sent him.” "Ok. interesting." They all kept their mouths shut at first, in the name of honor. But they always talked in the end, always.If he was not ready to play along, we just needed to wait it out.The smell of blood filled my nostrils as I entered the lit room where our guest was.“My men say you refuse to talk.” I said, no time for pleasantries.“Who the fuck are you?” the man shouted from
Magbasa paChapter 10 My Cat
LeoThe cold of the night as we stepped out of the car in a deserted field made me wish I had taken a thicker coat.Stan threw the shovels to the ground, took off his jacket, and started working. I didn’t envy his job.While he worked, I walked around the empty field, thinking of all the possibilities of how I was going to stick it to Diablo when he discovered I knew of his secret graveside.When I got back, Stan was knee deep into what was supposed to be a shallow grave. Maybe the man was wrong about this spot, but I refused to let my hopes fade.“Anything?” I asked Stan.“Nothing yet, Boss.” Stan stood and wiped his brow. Although the moon was out tonight, it was not enough to give us light. I had brought with me a flashlight to make the work run more smoothly.I took out the small paper where I had made notes while the man was talking. “We are in the right spot.” I said, more to convince myself than anyone else.Not only were we at the right spot, in fact if the man was right, the e
