~Emmy~Waking slowly, I yawned softly, my body stretching out on the softest bed I had ever slept on. "Damn, did I die? Am I sleeping on a cloud?" I mumbled as my eyes opened to see I was surrounded by crisp white linen. Snuggling back under the sheets, I closed my eyes again before they shot open as memories of the last few days danced across my mind. Kidnapped, auctioned, restrained, and ... Nothing after being restrained, only foggy memories of a conversation I knew had to be a dream. "I was beginning to think you would never wake up!" A serious voice announced from somewhere in the room. I wanted to bury myself under the sheets and pray it was all a dream, and I was about to wake up in my mother's wooden caravan on a bed made of lumps and bumps. But hearing the footsteps head my way, I braced myself for the cold reality that none of it was a dream. The sheets were pulled from me and thrown back; light blinded my eyes from an open window. Seizing my chance, I jumped and slammed
~Matteo~Sitting in my seat, I sensed Blaze moaning that she was out of sight and smirked; he was so whipped already! Although I expected nothing less! As I walked by her, I could see the clogs turning in her head and knew she was about to do something reckless. That most likely would end with me not being able to eat my fucking breakfast before my meeting started because I had to teach her a damn lesson.. again! I remained silent but motioned for the chef to bring the food forward; I watched him pick up a tray filled with pastries only to freeze as his eyes lifted beside me. A soft blush crossed his cheeks as he lowered his gaze and looked at the floor, clearly trying to show respect. Closing my eyes as her sweet scent drifted by me, I sucked in a breath to silence Blaze, who was howling like a dog in heat. Opening my eyes, I looked in the direction I sensed her and found myself frozen just like my chef, seeing her stride past my seat as naked as the day she was born, her skinny l
~Emmy~I wanted the ground to open and swallow me alive. I had bared my body to him, hoping to get a reaction, yet the only response I got from this smug bastard was amusement. I guess he is used to seeing naked women, and my body doesn't interest him. "Oh, it does!" The voice countered. "He is just more stubborn than you!" But these men who had joined us, although not looking at me directly, gave me the impression that they wanted to do more than sit at the table with me. They wanted to look but undoubtedly were trying to be respectful of their host! Perhaps respect is what I should have shown him in order to get what I wanted, but then I never did things like most people! "Probably why you are in so much shit!" The voice I was trying desperately to block out laughed, making me wince. I really was starting to miss those purple pills because she was starting to become a constant companion, One I did not want nor as for."How was the auction Matteo?" A male at the top of the table a
~Matteo~I felt the muscles in my jaw tighten at her blatant disrespect, but it was more than that; as much as I tried to push down the possessive wolf in me, the fact she was flaunting herself to get my attention rubbed me the wrong way. I may not want her, but that doesn't mean I want anyone else to have her! Or even look at her! As fucked up as I knew that was! But what was grinding on me was the nerve of the men around this table, who were employed because of me! Who had risen in this world because of me and what I offered them! And I do not recall offering Emmy to them. Yet I watched Ricky's hand slide up her thigh towards a pussy that I owned and couldn't have stopped Blaze from reacting even if I wanted to. Seconds it took me to round the table and grab his head, pulling it back by the roots of his hair. I held it there and watched as his eyes frantically darted towards me- Pleading for mercy. Grabbing the mug from his free hand, I smashed it on the arm of the chair carelessl
~Emmy~My skin felt like I had a million little insects crawling over it as I sat at the table where he had left me. Those he had called to his meeting were cleaning up the dead body that lay on the ground by my seat. I wanted nothing more than to pull my legs up and hug them to my shaking body. But that would be a weakness, something I knew these men would exploit. I just had to sit here in silence for a few more minutes while Matteo got ready and left, and then I would be heading out the door, too... back to my family! Somehow!I eyed the male at my feet as he rolled the still-warm body up in a plastic sheet someone had brought up from their car. There was no gentleness in his actions despite the respect he kept claiming to have for the dead male."I liked Ricky! I will miss him!" The male I knew to be called Ryan grunted for the third time, eyeing me angrily. "Shame he died over a piece of ass!" He added with a scowl that made me nervous; despite that, I felt the need to say somet
~ Emmy ~ Throwing the PJs on the bed, I stomped over to what I suspected was a bathroom door. I needed to get washed up if I Was leaving this maze of white wash walls and blood-stained carpets! My body screamed for a shower, but seeing the large jet jacuzzi bathtub, I groaned needily. The events of the last few days and being hog-tied for hours in the back of a car had left my body achy and in demand of some bubbles. Turning the taps on, I searched the bathroom for shampoo, conditioner, or anything I could use but frowned when I saw empty shelves and cupboards, not even a towel to dry with. For the guest bedroom, this room was seriously lacking. Turning the taps off, I headed back to the main door, pulling on the handles, half expecting to find them locked. I grinned, seeing them open, the smile falling from my face, seeing the miserable face of the security guy from earlier standing at the door like a creeper. "You know it's weird as fuck that you are just standing there.. what i
~Matteo~ Walking back into my penthouse, bag in hand, I paused, finding it deathly silent. My guard was nowhere in sight; no signs of anyone having entered the foyer, living room or kitchen since I had left, and no sounds coming from anywhere. Panic licked up my spine; for as much as I didn't want to admit I cared for my little mate, I didn't want her to leave either. "Because you like her?" Blaze taunted me. "Because she cost me a fucking fortune!" I snapped back, but the truth was, he was right, and the proof of that was in the bag I carried as I pushed open the door to her room; I sighed, finding that empty, too. Closing my eyes, I allowed Blaze to focus in on her. I smirked when he howled needily to let me know she was nearby. Striding out of her room, I walked down the corridor, suspecting she had picked one of the other guest rooms to stay in just to be a stubborn mare, but my eyes tightened on the guard I had installed to watch her as he stood outside my bedroom. "What a
~Matteo~ Pushing off the door frame as she lifted back out of the water dramatically, reminding me of a mermaid... if you got pouty mermaid's, I walked through the bathroom to where a plush velvet chair sat in the corner of the room. Crossing one leg over the other, I watched her twist in the bath, clearly hoping I wouldn't get a glimpse of her. "You know I am not blind, I have seen your body, right?" I chuckled. The way she snapped her head around to stare at me pulled my smirk wider across my face."Doesn't mean you get a free pass to look at me whenever you want!" She barked, pushing her hair off her face."True, but I think you will find the fifty million I paid for you does." I grinned slyly, watching her eyes roll into the back of her, all drama and chaos.. fuck she was lovely!"I guess that is the asking price for a sex slave these days!" She grumbled, running her hands through the bubbles. "Have I mentioned sex?" I asked, getting slightly irritated by her attitude; she had
