My feet were blistering and bleeding, but I didn't give up. No, I couldn't.

As I pushed into the forest, branches clawed at my arms, and the chilly night air burned my lungs. I dared not turn around. I had no idea how far I had gone; all I knew was that the mansion had vanished behind me hours ago.

In my mind, I saw the sight of that man's body; wide eyed, mouth contorted in a mute scream. Blood had gathered like a halo under him. Luca had ordered him dead and watched with such ease as he was tortured. As if he'd done it a hundred times already. He might have.

I could still hear the sound of the gunshot.

I shivered at the memory, slowing for a brief minute to grab onto a low wall for support.

He must have noticed that I was gone by now. He shouldn’t have made me see that. I shouldn't have been there.

I was also supposed to still be locked up in that gilded cage, being the good little play thing.

But I wasn’t. I made it out.

Barefoot and breathless, I tightened my gr

  • Bound To The Boss   Chapter 15 - Intel

    Luca's POV Even before I reached the final step, I could smell the stale air in the basement. Dust, old wood, and the slight haze of guards' cigarettes beyond the door. Even though I had been down here before, this time felt different. I wasn't here to listen to excuses tonight. I was going to determine Dom's value and whether I could afford to keep him alive.Two armed soldiers stood at the reinforced entrance, watching me but sensibly remaining silent. I didn't slow down. I heard the sound like a warning bell as one of the metal hinges moaned as it drew the door wide. The lone hanging lightbulb inside wobbled just enough to cast shadows on Dom's face. He was unshaven, pallid, and had severe bruises under his eyes, which made him look worse than when I last saw him. He had his hands bound to the table, and his jaw twitched as if he had been grinding his teeth for days. But when I walked in, his eyes remained fixed on me. Even now, he dared to look me in the eye. "Luca," he

  • Bound To The Boss   Chapter 14 - Trigger and Tension

    Luca's POV The weight of the Glock felt uncomfortable in her grip, as if she were uncertain whether to rely on it or discard it altogether. We stood in one of my private training spaces, its walls covered in soundproof padding, the air dense with the aroma of gun oil and subtle hints of leather from the equipment hanging against the far wall. A lone target awaited thirty feet ahead, a paper figure featuring an empty chest and dark circles delineating the lethal area. Ciara’s stance was all wrong. Her legs were too close together, shoulders too tight, elbows locked in a way that told me she was bracing for the recoil instead of controlling it. I stepped in behind her, close enough for my chest to brush her back, my hands covering hers. She stiffened but didn’t pull away. “You’re holding it like it might bite you,” I murmured near her ear. My tone wasn’t soft, but it was not sharp either. I needed her to take me seriously. To understand how close I was. Her response was soft, bu

  • Bound To The Boss   Chapter 13 - The Judas Code

    Luca's POVMy phone chimed the instant I entered the hallway. It was a private line. Only a handful of people knew the number, and even fewer were bold enough to use it at this hour.I picked it up without giving it a second glance. “What’s up?”“There’s a traitor.”Those three words halted everything. My breath, my thoughts, everything came to a standstill.Matteo’s voice was calm and measured.“I confirmed it twenty minutes ago. One of our encrypted lines was accessed internally. Not merely accessed, there have been coordinated leaks. Dates, routes, areas without surveillance.”I tightened my grip on the phone.“Who is it?”A brief silence. And then....“Dom.”The ground beneath me felt like it was breaking apart.“No. Are you certain?”“Absolutely. I triple checked. The port ambush, the staged customs operation, they all point back to his clearance code.”I squeezed my eyes shut. Dom. He was someone I had taken under my wing when all he had were wounds and loyalty. I taught him to

  • Bound To The Boss   Chapter 12 - The Quiet Between Us

    The world felt eerily silent when Ciara opened her eyes.For a few bewildered moments, she struggled to recognize her surroundings. The room was dimly illuminated, the gentle movement of curtains stirred by a breeze from the lake, and the scent of aged wood mixed with fresh linen lingered in the air. It wasn’t until she propped herself up, a fiery ache blossoming in her shoulders, that the memories flooded back.The gunfire, the blood and the escape. The way he had gazed at her as if she was the sole anchor keeping him tethered to reality.She was alone in the bed, cocooned in a thick, warm blanket. The bandage on her arm was tidy, snug, and expertly done.She pushed the blanket aside, grimacing as her bare feet met the chill of the wooden floor. The silence felt unsettling. She had been engulfed in chaos for days; screams, shouts, threats, and violence. This calm was disquieting. Delicate. As if it could break with a single breath.She followed the aroma of coffee and something butte

  • Bound To The Boss   Chapter 11 - Somewhere Safe

    The tires crunched against the gravel before coming to a halt. Mist coiled around the lakeside house like a veil. An oppressive silence settled in. Luca didn’t glance back. He quickly entered a code to unlock the front door, remaining quiet. We walked into a house illuminated only by the flickering fire and oil lamps. “Someone's been here,” I murmured, my gaze sweeping across pristine sheets and untouched dishes on gleaming tables. He sighed deeply. “I had it stocked last week. Just in case.” I allowed that to linger between us. Blood on his collar, a gun in my coat, and no explanation other than survival. I positioned myself by the large window, observing the lake pulse softly beneath the moonlight. Then he vanished down a corridor. I heard the sound of cabinets being opened, a drawer being shut with force, the rustling of supplies. When he came back, he pulled me towards the sofa and gently knelt before me. He had a bottle of antiseptic, fresh bandages, and an oppressiv

  • Bound To The Boss   Chapter 10 - Toward The Water

    I barely finished my sentence when a sharp crack echoed as the glass shattered behind me. Luca moved quickly, quicker than I imagined possible. One moment, we were standing in the tense quiet of his office, and the next, I found myself flat on the floor with his arm shielding me from danger. Gunfire ripped through the front windows. Shards flew inward like sparkling rain. I gasped, my ears ringing, as Luca shouted a command into the shadows. More shots followed. Quick. Precise. Not chaotic. They weren’t just issuing threats; they were here to kill. A chill ran through my veins as Luca pulled out a compact submachine gun as if it were a remote control. He pressed a spare clip into my hand. “Move to the hallway. Keep low. Shoot if you need to.” “Shoot who?” My voice quivered. But it was already too late. He had vanished. He became a shadow slipping into the next room, barking commands into a comms mic that I h
