Julian stood in front of the mirror in his closet, folding his collar as he looked at himself. He was wearing a black suit and a white button-up shirt beneath it.

The shirt was not buttoned all the way to the top; revealing a bit of his chest. A black, leather belt settled around the waist of his pants that somehow went well with his black shoes. That's it, he was ready now.

With a bit of perfume along his neck, he walked out of his room, stopping at Larisa's door. He knocked, and a couple se

  • Blackmailed By The Ruthless Mafia CEO   CHAPTER 36~ A GHOST

    Larisa walked up to the dining room, right behind Julian, stopping as the guards opened the double doors for them. It was time to get the truth.For years, she wondered why her family had to die...The police shook it off as an attempted robbery, but Larisa knew from the start that it had been more than just that.Nobody broke into a house to rob it without asking for money. She wasn't a fool.She walked into the room, and like last time, Chelsea and Marcello were already seated, but Chelsea was seated a chair away from him. There was also this tense aura around them, one that Larisa couldn't quite pin.Either way, she sat down when Julian pulled out a chair for her, adjusting the necklace around her neck. "Good evening."Chelsea smiled. "Good evening, sweetheart." she greeted back. "I see you're wearing it tonight? It suits you.""The necklace?" Larisa asked as Julian sat beside her. "It was Julian's idea. He said it was simple and cute...much like me."That was a dreadful lie, it di

  • Blackmailed By The Ruthless Mafia CEO   CHAPTER 35~ THE MAVEROS

    Larisa looked over at Julian who had rested an encouraging hand on her knee as she told him her story. "And that's it...I didn't come out of that room until the next morning, and that's also when I called the police.""I'm so sorry you had to experience that...is that room why you're scared of the dark?"Larisa nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks. "There's always this feeling that something bad will happen whenever I'm in the dark. It makes my skin crawl...I hate it.""I know...I know, and I'm sorry." He shuffled closer, tapping her back gently with his palm. "No one is ever going to put you in the dark again, Larisa. I promise you."​Larisa leaned into his touch, her body craving the comfort, but the echoed words of her memory suddenly roared back into her head, drowning out the steady rhythm of his heart.​The Mavero family sent us to collect it...​The breath hitched in her throat, and her entire body went rigid against him.​Mavero.​A memory from a few days ago crashed over h

    "Larisa, that's..." Julian's eyes widened, his lips slipping slightly ajar as he looked at her. "It has to be a replica. There's no way it's real. That organization fell before we were born. I've only heard stories about it, stories that don't even make sense." "Then tell me, does my parents' death make sense? Tears slipped down her cheeks, her hand gripping Julian's tighter. "What were thugs looking for in a house that looked like it survived thirteen storms? There was no money for them to steal, they didn't ask for any." Her voice cracked. "They only asked for a key." "I don't..." Julian shook his head, his eyes dropping to the pendant. "No. That doesn't prove anything." "It does to me." "Larisa..." "My father told them he didn't have it. He denied knowing anything about it." Julian went completely still. Larisa wiped her cheeks, only for more tears to follow. "I was fourteen. I didn't understand what they were talking about. I didn't even know why they wanted a key so badly

  • Blackmailed By The Ruthless Mafia CEO   CHAPTER 33~ THE KEY

    For the whole day, Larisa waited for Julian's return, and it wasn't until the sun disappeared and the moon reigned over the evening sky that he finally walked through the door.He was in his usual corporate villain fit, his hair neatly slicked back...so different from how it had been in the morning.He looked better with his hair messy though.The wet curls hanging against his forehead had given him a softer look; less intimidating...almost younger.And if she really thought about it, it made him look normal and maybe a tad bit more handsome.Larisa quickly shook the thought away as she pushed herself up from the stairs, her backside aching after being pressed against the hard surface for so long.Julian raised an eyebrow at her. "What are you doing down here?""I was waiting for you...come on.""I knew you'd miss me, but I didn't think you'd miss me this much." He laughed proudly. "Was your laptop not much fun?"Larisa glared at him. "Can you just come up stairs? I want to talk.""Ab

  • Blackmailed By The Ruthless Mafia CEO   CHAPTER 32~ THE NECKLACE

    The first thing Larisa did when she got back to the safehouse was log into her instagram on her laptop.She wanted to know if anyone had noticed she was gone.Of course, only Spencer had.Five messages sat waiting for her from him, each one asking if her silence meant something was wrong.Larisa smiled as she typed a reply.'Hey, Spencer! I'm fine, I have a lot on my plate...but nothing I can't handle. My phone got lost, so I didn't get to see your messages. How are you? And what about your wife and son?'It wasn't exactly a lie.Julian had taken her phone, and she had no intention of logging into her personal accounts on the replacement he'd given her. Who knew what was installed on it? What if he could see everything she did?Nope.That phone was for one thing and one thing only...answering Julian whenever he called.Speaking of Julian, he left earlier for work, barely giving her a proper goodbye.It was still early. Why was he in such a rush?His parents hadn't returned either...wh

    Larisa woke up to a gentle shake on her shoulder, her eyes peeking open to look blurrily around the room.The lights were off, but the room was still dimly lit by the sunlight that floated in through the half-cracked windows.She rubbed her eyes, clearing them...only to find Julian standing in front of her.He looked fresh, his hair wet and messy as though he'd just taken a shower."What?" She asked, assessing him even deeper. He wasn't wearing a suit, he was dressed casually in a white T-shirt and a pair of blue jeans.This was...different. Everything this man wore seemed to include a tie, so seeing him in a simple T-shirt was surprisingly strange.He shrugged. "I thought you wanted to get some things from your old house.""I do, but why so early?" Larisa looked towards the window again, "The sun isn't even fully out yet.""Well, I have to get back by 10:00 a.m. I still have work." He looked at the watch on his hand. "The clock is ticking, Larisa...it's either now or never."Larisa r

    Larisa did just what she told herself she would. When she got home, she sat in front of her computer until it was past 5:00pm. It was then that she went to the bathroom, took a shower and got dressed.It was time to head out. She hadn’t forgotten about the address in the message, however, that wasn

    Larisa walked out of the hotel on her shaky legs, her purse which she had found beneath the sheets tucked under her arm as she walked in pure shame out through the exit. She knew she looked like shit, her eyes were red, her hair was a mess. The only thing that looked close to good on her was the re

    Larisa’s eyes shot open, a frightened look on her face as she looked around. She had just woken up from a nightmare, a terrible nightmare!But as she looked around at the same hotel room it had all taken place in, she realized it was not just a nightmare; it was reality.Everything happened in real

    His hand sunk hard into her back, arching it to perfection. “You should’ve thought twice before you stepped into that club.”Larisa twisted to stare up at him, tears settling in her eyes, but she detested letting them fall. “B-Be gentle at least, it’s my first time.”“Sure, little reporter, however
