~ MIA ANTHONY ~

I sat on the plush sofa in the living room, trying to watch a movie while eagerly waiting for Luca.

With the delicious smell coming from the untouched food displayed on the table, I only sigh and my gaze glued to the door.

I couldn't eat because what in the name was keeping Luca from coming home. Yes I know I got him angry, but he shouldn't be too angry to not come home. I even asked Annette if he traveled and her response was negative meaning he was around.

I was still scared. After I woke up from a very long nap earlier, I was told Luca had left the mansion at noon. How was I supposed to eat with all the built up fear knowing he's still angry with me?

"Ma'am, come eat while you wait for the boss.” Miss Betty the head staff came in to say but I wasn't in for it. If only she knew what I did, she wouldn't had bother me right now.

"I will wait until he comes.” I muttered, my hands curled tightly at my side while I grin falsely from ear to ear.

"Okay, ma'am.”

  • Contracted to the Mafia Lord: The devil and His pet   BACK TO SCHOOL

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~ I covered my blushed face with the back of my palm to hide the smile that didn't want to be held. Glancing at the side mirror one last time, I checked my make up adoring the pretty face that stared back at me. I wore a multi color vintage shirt today, paired with brown baggy jeans and a white Adidas superstar converse which I admired amongst the converse I bought last week. "I don't know how you would tell them without telling them, but no one should mess around you carelessly.” Luca had said in his ever domineering tone. I was supposed to be angry or something, you know, like why does he sound that way but I find it endearing plus how he was trying so hard to help tie the bow on my hair. Ever since I was in the car, the beautiful image of his focus stance and his breath against my skin as he spoke still lingers in my memory. I glance at Edwin from my peripheral to check if he caught me trying to hide a blush but fortunately, his focus is on the road. Sincer

  • Contracted to the Mafia Lord: The devil and His pet   A LITTLE GRATITUDE MIGHT BE RISKY

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~Alone in the dinning, I was ready to force myself yet again to try to enjoy this food. I was hungry, yes, but I always lost my appetite when sitting alone on this vanity dining table. The mansion was just occupied by the workers and staff with no Luca in sight. Ever since that stunt I pulled, he’s not tried to force himself on me and it makes me wonder if he was plotting some sort of revenge or he's come to his senses. I ate the food in silence, my throat bobbed as I tried to swallow every bit of it. I was told I had an extra class and it was Luca's idea, but he wasn't back to explain to me what Edwin said about me finishing my class when I get home but now I do. He had hired an online tutor to teach me so I don't get left behind on things I missed or I guess will or might miss in the future. It's like I would be one step ahead of my course mates and somehow, I was so happy for the opportunity. Now, I have something to keep me busy after school and not just to st

  • Contracted to the Mafia Lord: The devil and His pet   REUNION

    ~ LUCA VITIELLO ~"It's nice to meet you Morgan.” I gestured, my hands stretched humbly with a smile."You know boy, I'm not your mate. You should have some little respect for that name, C'mon." Morgan said, his laughter filled the room, a champagne in his hand."I know man, but Morgan....." I stopped halfway, after unintentionally mentioning his name again."Don't misuse that position of yours, I might as well come for it.” Morgan's finger pointed at me in stern warning but the large smile on his face says otherwise."Maybe when you are tired of living and ready to join my parents.....” A reverberating laughter left my throat, my words hitched in my throat as Morgan laughed again. If we were the Morgan and Luca of old days, we would have been going blood for blood, aura for aura, don't get me wrong. I’m still Luca who stands on protocol. It's just that the Luca now to Morgan is different.Our relationship was one that I wouldn't say was sweet, he was my father's rival and if you'

  • Contracted to the Mafia Lord: The devil and His pet   THE KIND OF PUNISHMENT I LIKE

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~ "Meet me in my study.” Luca said, his steps quick as they collide with the floor. I stood fazed in the bedroom as Luca emerged from the bathroom, his hands firmly on the door while he stepped out. Before now, after realizing the situation I've put myself into, I became anxious waiting for his arrival. Of all the times I had always said Luca has no self control, he proves me otherwise. It's been almost more than two weeks and he hasn't tried anything funny until now, and here I was, wondering if he was always waiting for me to pull the string so he doesn't have to be blamed afterwards. I ate my food in absentia, rummaging my brain for any possible way to escape this forthcoming punishment, who knows, he might want to take revenge; leaving me insatiable again after turning me on. I ate quickly, took a very cold shower to release my stiff muscles. My mind was a bit calm from the rushed touch of water against my skin but not completely enough to cause goosebumps on m

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~ I don't know how to feel about last night. After my idea of trying to escape got ruined, I couldn't believe it in the end. I was the demanding one. Yesterday's sex was the best for me so far. Luca was different yesterday, rough yet gentle. Now I can't believe I was craving for more by just thinking about it. I woke up to an empty bed again. I didn't know what he does aside from being a Mafia Lord importing and exporting illegal products but maybe being a Mafia was all kinds of many things, guess it can be exhausting especially when you are the leader right? I rushed to the bathroom, the green soft brush moved quickly against my teeth and while I wanted to take a shower, I saw hickeys from our lovemaking — on my neck, breast, belly and even my arms. After taking a shower, I stood before my closet confused as to what to wear, because help me God I can't let my friends see this. I later decided on a beige turtleneck crop top paired with a brown high waist pri

  • Contracted to the Mafia Lord: The devil and His pet   A DREADFUL SITUATION

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~Edwin's head bowed in acceptance, he wasn't even denying that he snitched on me.The ride to the mansion was quiet, this time, there wasn't even the sound of the passing air. I called Luca several times but he wasn't picking. He's ignoring my calls.Here I was worried that Edwin would always be in the car waiting for a grown up like me to finish lectures, little did I know he had been busy keeping an eye on me."You snitched on me last time right?”"Hm." Was his curt response. Annoying."How much did you tell Luca the last time you snitched?”"Nothing much, I just told him there was this dude that's always staring at you, and that's all. Believe me ma, I had no other option, it's either I do as I was told or I pay dearly for not doing it.”Yes it's not his fault I know, who can dare go against the mighty Luca but I was still angry at him too and the fact there would always be someone to keep an eye on me doesn't sit right with me. When I thought I was free from the con

    ~ LUCA VITIELLO ~Edwin had just shown me a picture and the he-goat that had the gut to put his hands over what belongs to me? A light chuckle filled the empty room. “Okay” I muttered through the phone before hitting the end call buttonMy hands hovered over the screen, ‘My little Mia.’ displayed boldly at the top of it.“Hello.”“How do you want me to cut the hands over your shoulder? Dangling or amputated?” Without the chance for an explanation, I ended the call, my head laid back on the soft pillow beneath.Today, I came back earlier than usual. Someone had stolen the items which just arrived from Russia, the weapons shipment I spoke about, just weeks after a sneaky note was sent to me. "Watch your back, I would hit where it hurt most,” was sent to me to my office by an unknown name holder; how ridiculous, but I don't feel right knowing my security team were as weak as a worm under the sun. I had sent my minions to investigate, yet no trace, coupled with the idea of someone out

    ~ MIA ANTHONY~I just had a steamy moment with him, forgetting in those times the reason why I was in his study at first. After that, we had come back to the room to change our clothes but we didn't talk further, that was when it occurred to me that I was angry with him."Luca, can I ask you something?" I asked, smoothening the short gown I wore."Yes, go on.”"How did you convince the Vice chancellor to become my personal tutor?" I asked the question that has been on my mind for a long time but never got the chance."It's easy to convince people with money, so money convinced him.” Now I was wondering, if it was as he just said then the money given to the Vice Chancellor must have been a very huge amount of money."But does he know I'm married to you?”"No, he doesn't.”"Then what did you say to him? He doesn't ask me questions.”"It's because he knows when and what to ask.”"Okay,” I replied, even though I didn't clearly understand. Doesn't the VC have questions reeling in his hea

    ~ LUCA VITIELLO ~An intel was assigned to join my team to help catch the culprit, however, I doubted the new intel but Uncle Diego convinced me he was a technology guru and a very good hacker.For me to go to the extent of asking my uncle for assistance was a big blow to my ego. I was never one to ask for help because everything was within my power.The surveillance camera in my office and in and around my company I presumed were also hacked because it didn't capture any suspicious activities, person or a threatening note being slipped into my office. Uncle Diego proposed we stay for another day which I didn't decline because I knew from the onset he would want me to stay. His reason was ‘’Why was I in a haste if I don't have anyone waiting for me at home’’"Have you heard from him?" Diego asked and I knew instantly who he was talking about."No.” I replied uninterested. “It's been almost ten years since I heard from him, I guess he might be good as dead or probably a changed man.”

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~ I had just left my room after another lesson with Mr Theodore. Like my everyday ritual — I go to school, come back, take my lunch, have an hour-long lesson with my online tutor and the day is almost over. I eat dinner and that's all for the day. Walking down the stairs, I went to the kitchen. Though Miss Betty wants to keep her work as professional without interfering during work hours, she always cuts time out for me, especially after we've strongly bonded since the time I was sick. "Good evening Miss Betty, what's for dinner?" "You will see when it's ready,” was her curt response as she flashed me a small smile which I reciprocated. I lingered in the kitchen, trying to initiate small talks with the workers but they always replied in a professional manner. To this day, I still wonder if they were given some crucial intensive kitchen and professional cooking lessons that made them look rigid, like one attempt to laugh out loud will result in their salary being

    ~LUCA VITIELLO ~I sat in my office, sipping on a glass of wine. My gaze lingered at the map of Moscow on the wall, my mind was racing with the recent losses my organization had suffered."Someone is stealing from us," I muttered, my voice low. Menacing. "I want to know who did it, I fucking want to know!" My hand made a swift contact with the desk, hard. Frustration was eating at me at the unyielding reports of the investigation.This was not the first time. Ryan's call woke me up this morning that the underground has been cleared of the remaining items in it.Ryan and Damien stood before me, hands clasped behind their backs. "We've reviewed the security footage. The preparator seems to always be one step ahead,” Damien said.My eyes narrowed. "I want to find out who this person is and I’m doing it myself, I don't care what it takes.”Partially pissed that my team couldn't be more careful at their assigned task. I took my phone to make a phone call."We’re leaving!” Prepare the heli

  • Contracted to the Mafia Lord: The devil and His pet   JUST TWO DAYS FEEL OF WARMTH

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~ I have been on bed rest for the past two days and Luca has been at home. If there was one thing I enjoyed these past days, was seeing him work. It was a sight I rarely see. How his fingers were fluid on the laptop, his stance posture and focus and the steady movement of his eyes across his screen. But I guess Luca was just someone one can admire from afar, he's unpredictable and seems like a loveless being but, I sure will miss this moments — The mansions, the princess treatments from his staff, the free rides to school, the delicious magnanimous foods and the soft plush mattress, but I can't choose them over my peace. I’m getting insane being stuck up indoors, monitored and conserved. Today, I’m getting dressed for school after endless calls from Diane and Marvel which I ignored with the excuse of: I can't talk, I’m sick. Diane especially must have been worried and told marvel about my illness after not seeing me back at the classroom. I wondered how sh

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~"How do you feel?” Luca asked, his hands wrapped tenderly over mine as he spoke. My lips were left hanging.He has held my hands several times when we made love, he had spoken to me but now I don't know— it was different, but then something in me noticed. His demeanor, the way his eyes looked at me as he spoke, they weren't the same. He was truly concerned.Whoa! I never knew Luca could feel emotions like this."Do you feel concerned for me or you just haven't been around sick people in a while?"My question made him swiftly looked me up, even I was shocked too.I shook my head before he responded as if to unsay what I just said."I’m sorry, I’m not just used to you asking how I feel and all sorts of compassionate questions.”"You are sick, who wouldn't be worried?”"I'm not dead Luca. I'm very much alive, just a slight headache, body pain and lack of appetite but I would be fine with some rest.”"Appetite? You haven't eaten?”“I have eaten.” I lied.Right now, I don'

    ~ MIA ANTHONY ~ "Would you like some tea instead?" Miss Beth, the kitchen head, asked. She had asked almost similar questions for the fifth time, recommending some food I could eat after saying I had no appetite for what they prepared. "No Miss Bethany, how about orange juice instead?" I replied after sitting in the dinning for about three minutes just thinking of what my body wanted and even after that, I didn't see any food that enticed me now except the orange juice that I could manage. "Would just orange juice be enough?” I nodded positively as I watched her leave the kitchen from the periphery of my vision. This morning, I woke up feeling dizzy with a slight headache, took a shower and thought it was just a mere ache but it increased after I was done dressing. Not only that, but I felt nauseous at the slight smell of the food being prepared. "Madam, are you okay?" Edwin asked as he opened the passenger door so I could enter. "Yes." It was a half truth though, I felt a lit

    ~ LUCA VITIELLO ~ Sprawled freely on the bed was Mia, exhausted. I guess it was from all the earlier emotions. I had made her cry but that’s not what was provoking, it's the fact that I don't understand why I suddenly care, why it bothered me that she constantly cries whenever she's around me. Earlier today, what I said was not something far fetched, it was something she knows well enough. I walked quietly to the bed, sat beside her; closely, wanting to caress those soft delicate lips that were slightly opened, a portal through which she exhales and inhales and now I wish I was the air. My hands unconsciously touched her lips, rubbing it gently. Her lips were full and red like she had a makeover and decided to bless her bed with her beauty. My hands then extended from her lips to her jaw then to her neck until a slight turn of her head jolted me back, my body trembled from the slight act. What’s wrong with me? Suddenly, I shifted back, the distance was like her body was on

    ~ LUCA VITIELLO ~ After I had left the mansion, I went to the SK brothers bar where Tessy had messaged me for the location of our meeting. Seeing her would make her stop pestering me right? Although I had warned her several times, I assumed she was too familiar with me and thought my threats weren't effective. She must trust our childhood bond too much to be careless. Sincerely, hooking up with Tessy was the last thing I thought of. I went to the booth, it was a VIP booth reserved for the both of us. "Yeah, my love,” she whispered upon my arrival, her chest resting perfectly on the edge of the table so that one could see her cleavage. "Tessy! I am not your love!” I said sternly but she smiled regardless, not even afraid. "Oh come on, you remembered what my dad would say when we were little. We had been good together.” "You know… his words don't hold water, it doesn't matter what he said, we are adults now so how about you stop this delusion, hmm?" I could see her demeano
