32. And, I ran...

Erica

Dinner 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...”

• CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance    36. Thank you

  AntonioI stood on the balcony, my eyes fixed unseeing on the hills and valleys around as I smoked on a cigar while a bottle of scotch rested on the small table behind me. I hadn't opened it, preferring cigar, as my mind was still on what Ephraim had told me. I had asked him to reiterate every single detail he had seen and knowing to completely obey me, he had given me all the minute details. And the picture it had painted in my mind still made me fûcking insane to go on a killing spree. I had told my men to stand there and watch it as I executed punishment and lessons for others. What would happen if someone touched what’s mine, and Erica was most definitely mine. I decided it earlier when I had an impromptu and unwanted meeting with Nikolai.Ephraim’s little crush on her didn't b

• CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance    37. He was big

  EricaIt’s been two days since the night I tried to run away and failed miserably, and I was still sleeping in his bedroom. I didn't know where he was sleeping though, because I knew that he hadn't been sleeping in his own bed beside me. I didn’t want him to, but it felt... strange to sleep here while he had to go somewhere else to sleep. And also the fact that he was allowing me to sleep here. But I also didn’t want to go back to the old room so I guess I shouldn’t think much about it.All things aside, I was feeling quite comfortable in his room. Maybe it was because it was totally different from the whole castle. This room was like someone had pulled it out of the catalogue of the best seven star hotels. The floor to ceiling windows allowed the marvelous view of the hills and valleys. The bathroom was hu

• CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance    38. I want to talk to you

  AntonioSomething happened last night, no, make that two. Two things happened last night. And both of them involved my little captive.First her nightmare.I could only catch whispered pieces of her nightmare, but it was enough to make me realize that they weren’t just because of what happened to her in the forest here on this cliff. My little diavola has her own demons and darkness, which was probably the reason why she was the way she was. Her need for drugs and pain was starting to make sense. But what didn’t make sense to me, was why the auctioneer had called her virgin if she had been a victim to what her nightmares suggested. As much as I had wanted to wake her up and demand who hurt her— which came as a shock t

• CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance    39. A good nap

  EricaAfter breakfast I went to look for Mario as Antonio and Ephraim left me on the terrace while they were talking about the upcoming shipment or something. I found Mario in one of the small rooms on the ground floor. He was writing something on the little notepad in his hand when I knocked. He looked up and smiled, “Erica, please come in.”“Am I disturbing you?” I asked.“No. Affatto. Come, Ragazza.” He patted the divan, motioning for me to sit.I walked inside but didn’t sit as I rounded the small desk he was working on. “What are you doing?”“Making a grocery li

• CAGED- A Dark Billionaire Captive Romance    40. Proposing something...

  EricaHe held out his hand to me as he said, “Come on, then. You said you wanted to talk.”I looked at his outstretched hand and despite wanting to say something sarcastic about him behaving like a gentleman, I just slipped my hand in his. He gripped my fingers and pulled me up with a jerk. With a soft gasp, I placed my palm against his chest to balance myself and looked up at him. “I was sure you were gonna say something that would've earned you a punishment.” He murmured in his deep voice that stroked my inner thighs.“Punishment? I thought you were feeling a little sympathetic toward me after...” I trailed off, biting my tongue. What the hell I was doing!
