CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 28. Good morning, is it?
EricaI wore thesluttydress.And even went as far as to wear that stupid, blinking diamond bracelet. It was beautiful on my wrist but I would never admit it. For some reason that beautiful thing didn’t feel like an expensive jewellery it was, but a shackle from Antonio Rossi. Either way, I wore it and the thing I loved the most of my whole attire wasn’t designer dress with fabric less than a handkerchief or the delicate cream colored thong underneath it or the diamond bracelet, it was the pair of shoes that I was wearing on my feet under the dress that looked fit to walk on the red carpet. II descended the stairs making my way to the dining room where I hadn’t had the dinner yesterday because a cert

AntonioI watched her walk away, her perfectly shaped hips swaying as she made her way inside and disappeared. I turned to Ephraim and found him glaring down at his plate. He was nine years younger than me and yet he still looked a fresh faced fourteen years old that I had taken under my wing. He still did everything to impress me even when I had told him again and again he didn’t have to but surprisingly he went against me for the little devil who was nothing but a captive.I could see that he liked her but not enough to displease me and that was the reason he was angry right now. At himself. That his little attraction had cost him my disappointment. I stood up and wasn’t surprised when he apologized, “I am sorry, I didn’t mean to go against your wishes. It was just, she looked so sad aft
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 30. You will regret it
EricaI spent the rest of the day in the castle, going from one corner to another. It’s huge, the corridors had my feet aching but I was intrigued and the quiet, the smell of dust in most of the empty rooms and sculptures in one room that had looked like it was part of a museum and not to miss the intricate designs on the walls had me going on till the sun set and my stomach grumbled for the fifteenth time to feed it.There were four locked doors that I had encountered. One being the same one that had led to the narrow stairs that I had ascended with Ephraim in the morning, for some reason it was locked now and I really wanted to go upstairs in that corridor with all those windows. I knew for sure that floor belonged to Antonio and he had it locked. Then there were two other rooms on the third floor that were locked. And one that intrigued me most was t
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 31. I’ll help you
EricaUnable to believe my eyes, I once again looked back on either side from where I stood and then entered the tent. My whole body tensed as if I was a rabbit going out for a snack when there was a hungry lion on the prowl. I didn’t even breathe for the five steps it took me to reach the small wooden cabinet and on top of which was a gun resting idly.The moment my fingers touched the cold metal, I snatched it up and stuffed it inside my blouse. The bulge was noticeable so I pulled my hair free from its ponytail. My heart thudded in my chest as I made my way out of the tent ready to be jumped by someone, Ephraim or any of the men in black uniform.I was so engrossed and trying to deal with what I just did that when I rounded the corner of the
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 32. And, I ran...
EricaDinner was quiet. I was too nervous and wrapped up in my mind to make small talk or to pester Ephraim. And it seemed that he knew I wasn’t one to remain quiet and keep my thoughts to myself because he kept glancing at me. But my mind was on planning my escape. The problem was I would never be able to walk out the front door to make my escape because as it happens apart from the security guards that keep watch during the night, rounding the parameter of the castle, Elijah and one other man stay in the entry hall to keep watch if someone managed to get through the guards stationed outside. So it meant that I would’ve to find another way which was impossible if I remained in that windowless room.The one question I had asked of Ephraim was when Antonio will be back. He had looked surp
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 33. I couldn't breathe
EricaMy breaths came short and fast as I ran. The soles of my feet screamed their agony as my feet pounded on the uneven gravel. The tree line was just a few steps away and I could hear more men shouting as they got aware of my escape. Soon, Ephraim would know too and I’d have to be gone. I didn't want to fail and be caught. The thought spurred me on and I put my everything as I ran.The moment I entered the forest, I zigzagged through the trees. I could hear the footsteps coming after me. One of the men called out, “Miss, return to the castle and no one needs to tell Capo anything.”I snorted. Yeah. Fûck you.The overgrown dry grass scratched and hurt my legs and goosebumps dotted my skin because of the c
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 34. My Captive, Bought for myself
AntonioThere were a few things I’d never tolerate.Someone touching what’s mine without my fûcking permission.And after the long meeting I’d had with the cabinets of ministers, I was barely holding my cool and it all evaporated when I found Nikolai sitting in the jet waiting for me in Milan. I should’ve been prepared for it considering he lives here in the city. I have a place too, but I wasn’t fond of people and loud city noises. I only stayed in Milan when I had to attend to business and couldn't go back to the castle.The moment I sat down in one of the executive chairs, Nikolai said, “You have been ignoring my calls.”
CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance 35. I am here
Erica~“What are you doing here?” My father asked as he opened the long cabinet beside the fridge.I blinked at him, after I had run out of my dark room where the shadows seemed to whisper and touch me I had hidden in the kitchen. My whole body was shaking as I had squeezed my eyes tightly in the dark cabinet and curled up into myself. I hated this dark but here there were no shadows, no rough hands and harsh whispers.It took my eyes a second to adjust to the bright light of the kitchen that he had switched on. “D-daddy, there is someone in my room...”
