Chapter 11: "You Are Testing Me"

Nicholas's Point of ViewThe morning lights filtered through my window penetrating my eyes. As I dress up for work I couldn't help but remember the incident from the other day, the look in her eyes was amusing, she was quite different from any other girl I'd ever come across. Putting myself together and picking up my briefcase, I shuffled downstairs quietly taking one step at a time, the anticipation of seeing Elena fluttered my heart but I put myself in check before walking into the dinning. The silence of the dining room was deafening, except for the soft clinking of silverware as the maids set the table. I sat at the head, staring at my untouched plate of food, an unshakable irritation brewing within me. My coffee had grown lukewarm, much like my patience. "Where is Elena?" I finally asked, my voice calm yet laced with steel.The maid closest to me froze, her hands trembling as she placed a fresh cup of coffee by my side. “S-sir, Mrs. De Luca hasn’t come down yet,” she stammered.

Chapter 12: "Who Is This?"

Elena's Point Of ViewThe house was quiet, unnervingly so. Time seemed to crawl as I sat on the edge of my bed, staring out of the window at the expansive estate that now served as my gilded prison. The sun was shining brightly, a stark contrast to the shadow that loomed over my life. "Married to a monster." The thought alone sent a shiver down my spine, but I refused to wallow in fear.Enough was enough. I wasn’t going to let him break me, not without a fight. The defiance simmering in my veins pushed me to my feet. If I was going to be trapped here, I might as well get familiar with the territory. This wasn’t just his home; it was mine now too, whether he liked it or not.I quickly changed into a pair of comfortable jeans and a loose blouse, something simple enough to move in but not entirely devoid of style. With a deep breath, I stepped out of my room, scanning the long corridor. The air was cool, the kind of temperature that seeped into your bones.I turned to the right, curiosit

Chapter 13: "She's Stunning

Nicholas’s Point Of ViewThe moment the door opened, I felt my breath catch. There she stood, a vision in crimson, the fabric hugging her curves as if it were molded for her. For a fleeting moment, I allowed myself to admire her, the way her hair cascaded over her shoulders, the faint glint of irritation mixed with admiration in her eyes only added to her allure. Then, as if to remind me of the game we were playing, the darker part of my mind took over. I imagined tearing that dress off her, exposing the fire I knew she hid beneath that defiant exterior.But her voice brought me back to reality, sharp and clipped as she descended the stairs. “Can we go?” she asked, her tone indifferent, as if she were already bored of my presence.I adjusted my suit and stood up from the couch I sat on. “After you,” I said coolly, gesturing for her to lead.She swept past me, the hem of her gown brushing against my leg like a taunt. We walked in silence to the car, her chin held high, her back straigh

Chapter 14: A Lesson Well Learnt

Elena's Point Of ViewThe ride home was suffocatingly silent. I pressed my forehead against the cool glass of the car window, the blur of streetlights sliding past like streaks of gold. My hands balled into fists on my lap, nails biting into my palms as I tried to focus on the passing scenery and not the man beside me. Nicholas radiated anger, his jaw clenched so tightly I thought his teeth might crack. The tension in the car was unbearable, like the air had been sucked out, leaving behind an oppressive vacuum. I knew tonight wasn’t over, not by a long shot.This was going to be one hell of a ride.The tires crunched against the gravel of the driveway as we pulled up to the mansion. Nicholas got out without a word, the slam of the car door echoing like a gunshot in the still night. I barely had a chance to unbuckle my seatbelt before he appeared on my side, yanking the door open.“Get out,” he growled, his voice low and lethal.I stared at him defiantly for a moment, refusing to move,

Chapter 15: The Lure of Secrets

Elena's Point Of View The rustle of keys on the iron door startled me awake, dragging me out of a restless, haunted sleep. My body ached from hours spent curled on the hard, cold floor, and my head throbbed as if it had been pounded by a hammer all night. The memories of the previous evening came rushing back, Nicholas’s iron grip on my arm, the panic as the door slammed shut, the suffocating darkness that had swallowed me whole. My breath hitched as I sat up, the stale air of the tiny room pressing down on me like a physical weight.The door creaked open, and the light streaming in was almost blinding. “Miss Elena,” came a soft voice. I squinted up to see Elizabeth, the head maid standing there, her expression a mixture of pity and discomfort. “The master instructed me to let you out.”I didn’t wait for her to say another word. Scrambling to my feet, I pushed past her without so much as a glance, my legs shaking beneath me as I made my way down the hall. My feet carried me on autopi

Chapter 16: Murdered

Elena's Point Of ViewTwo months. Two soul-crushing, mind-numbing months in Nicholas’s house, and it felt like I’d aged years.The mornings blurred into nights, the days indistinguishable from each other. I avoided him like the plague, hiding in my room when I heard the heavy thud of his boots in the hallway, slipping out only when I was sure he was gone. The four walls of my so-called “room” had become my prison, suffocating and unrelenting.But my mind? My mind refused to stay caged.That date, 25/12/2014 had become an obsession. It haunted me in the quiet hours, whispered in the corners of my dreams, and gnawed at my thoughts every waking moment. What did it mean? The painting had to be important, but Nicholas’s cold rage that night had shut me down before I could uncover anything.I sat at the small desk by the window, staring blankly at the outside world as the voice of Elizabeth, the head maid echoed in my head.“It would be better if you don’t go snooping around the master’s pr

Chapter 17: "You Owe Me That Much"

Nicholas's Point Of ViewThe room reeked of authority, mahogany furniture, muted light from the chandelier, and the faint scent of leather and ink. This was my sanctuary, the nerve center of my empire, where deals were struck, wars were planned, and lives were decided.Sitting behind the massive desk, I adjusted the earpiece in my ear and leaned back in my chair. The cold surface of my Glock brushed against my hand as it rested on the desk, a silent reminder of the world I ruled. Across from me, Alejandro stood, his expression stoic but his sharp eyes never missing a thing.“Mr. De Luca,” the voice on the conference line crackled with a mix of hesitation and greed. It belonged to Jason Smirnov, a known black-market investor notorious for brokering weapons deals. “The shipment is impressive. High-grade firearms like these… they’ll fetch a premium in Eastern Europe. But the price you’re asking? It’s steep.”I allowed a brief silence to stretch, the kind that made men sweat. “And yet, yo

Chapter 18: "Or Was It You"

Elena's Point Of ViewThe dining room was unnervingly quiet, except for the rhythmic clinking of Nicholas’s silverware against his plate. I kept my head low, pretending to focus on my omelet, though my mind was far from the plate before me. Across the table, Nicholas sat like a marble statue, rigid, cold, unreadable. His dark eyes skimmed over the newspaper in his hand, every so often lifting to glance at his phone.I needed to ask him. No, I had to. The words from the report were etched into my brain, each one a dagger twisting deeper into my gut: “From the investigation, it is declared that the deaths of Emilio Torres and his wife Bethany Torres was a deliberate murder.”Who would want my parents dead? My father was a saint in every sense of the word, a man who dedicated his life to helping others through his shelters and foundations. He was the kind of man who went out of his way to make life better for the less fortunate. And my mother, Bethany, was his perfect partner in every wa

Chapter 19: Scarred By Loss

Elena's Point Of ViewI woke to a blinding throb in my skull, as if a mallet was pounding relentlessly against my temples. Groaning, I pressed my palms to my forehead and struggled to sit up. The room tilted slightly before righting itself, and the events of the previous day came rushing back in a whirlwind of chaos and anger. Nicholas’s furious eyes burned in my memory, his rage palpable as he towered over me in his study. The files, the damning signatures, the horrific truths, every detail played on a loop in my mind. Nesa Caistro. The Ghost. D’Angelo.“What the hell does it all mean?” I whispered into the stillness of the room. My parents’ murder, the sinister revelations about my father’s foundations, and Nicholas’s connection to it all, it was a puzzle with missing pieces, but I was determined to solve it. My thoughts were interrupted by the soft creak of the door opening.Nicholas strolled in, impeccably dressed as always, carrying a tray with a steaming bowl. His expression was

Chapter 20: The Weight of Shadows

Nicholas’s Point Of View"Why the hell can’t she just listen?" I muttered, my voice sharp and cutting as it filled the silence of my office. Pacing behind my desk, I stopped to slam my palm down, the sound reverberating in the room. Alejandro stood opposite me, arms crossed, his gaze calm but probing as if he were analyzing my outburst. It only fueled my frustration.“She defied me, Alejandro. Not once, but repeatedly.” My words came out like venom, and yet, deep down, there was something I couldn’t admit aloud... a pang of worry that had taken root in my chest. Elena’s stubbornness wasn’t just infuriating. It was dangerous to both of us.Alejandro shrugged, his calm demeanor somehow more irritating than if he’d disagreed outright. “You keep calling her stubborn, but you know damn well why she’s doing it. You’re shutting her out, boss. She’s not as stupid as you think. She sees the cracks in the walls you’ve built. She just wants to understand what’s on the other side and I think it w
