Elodie's POV

My back burned as it scraped across the floor. My dress rode up, exposing my inner thighs. I kicked again, using my free leg to strike at his wrist.

He didn’t budge. He didn't even stumble.

His grip around my ankle stayed firm as he dragged me along like I was some dirty rag being hauled away for disposal.

I shouted for help, screamed at the top of my lungs, clawed at the floor, and reached for anything I could grab to stop myself from moving. But nothing worked.

  • Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)   Chapter 12: Don't Flatter Yourself

    Elodie's POV '...Little Red.'My breath hitched and my toes curled when he said it. Of course, he would pick the most obvious thing to call me. Red, as in my hair.And the way he had said it. Only a man like him would take a word so normal, and make it sound so dark and wishful at the same time.I hated the way it rolled out of his mouth. And I hated even more how my body had reacted to it.I've received a fair share of bullying in my middle and high school because I was a redhead. Kids would laugh at how wild, curly, and bright it was. They would go on to stick papers, pencils, wraps, and even gum on my hair.It didn't faze me then, and I was almost certain it wouldn't now. Almost.He pulled up to his full length, his eyes peering down at me. "Get up," he said, his voice was back to being authoritative and detached. I didn't move from my spot. I watched as he turned and started toward the door. He stopped and turned his head to look at me."You can tell me if you love it here, and

  • Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)   Chapter 11: The Dark Room

    Elodie's POV I dragged myself towards the door he had just exited. My knees and palms still burning, cheeks still stinging, but the little fight left in me kept me moving.Even though I couldn’t make out anything, I soon reached the door. He'd locked it from outside, but a small piece in me that hoped the lock would turn as I tried on the handle, didn't work.My heart dropped. I twisted it again, and still nothing. I winced as I stood up slowly, my hands against the wall, scalp sweaty and hair spread across my face, messy. I turned to my side, took a deep breath in, and banged my shoulder against it.I groaned painfully, clutching my shoulders as the pain settled in. And the iron door stood mounted like a rock.A laugh escaped me. Not because anything was funny, but because I couldn’t believe this was happening.“No…” I whispered, trying to keep my breathing steady and control my emotions. I lightly tapped the door, and it didn't rattle.Then I banged again and again, till it got lo

But nothing worked.“It’s of no use,” he said calmly, way too calmly. The sound of it made anger twist inside me.I lifted my head and looked ahead, seeing we had reached a staircase. But this one wasn’t the grand staircase that led upstairs.This one went down. My stomach dropped suddenly. I thought it was just another hallway hidden inside the house.He stopped dragging me without warning. Before I could gather myself to run away, he hauled me upright and lifted me against him. One hand fisted in my hair, forcing my head back, whi

  • Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)   Chapter 9: Cost Of Her Attitude

    Elodie's POV A light click from his fork on the plate caused me to jolt out of the trance. I quickly lowered my head to my plate, heart beating fast in its cage.What was that? How was he able to do that? Why wasn't I able to move when his gaze locked with mine? The chill I had felt was unsettling.I exhaled and sat straight, cutting the juicy chicken with my knife. As soon as it touched my tongue, my taste buds came alive and my mind almost exploded.What was this deliciousness I was tasting?As if he could read my mind, I heard him chuckle. I frowned, my eyes pulling up again to look at him. I didn't stare for long of course. Who would want to be caught in those mesmerizing eyes of his?Definitely not me."Tell me..." he started, cutting into his chicken. His eyes were on the plate. "What is your name?"I paused, my grip tightening around the fork and knife I held. That's right. The men who abducted me didn't know my name, because I didn't have my wallet or ID with me."I don't hav

  • Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)   Chapter 8: Dark Styled Dinner

    Elodie's POV Warm water poured over my head and trickled down my face, then my body as I stood under the running water. It was nighttime already and I was getting ready to have dinner with the handsome devil. That's what I'll be calling him because I didn't know his name. Was it El Cuervo or Valiente? I didn't care. After washing, I stepped out of the bathroom, a thick towel tied around my chest and another one on my head. I looked at my reflection in the dresser mirror, my face was flushed and freckles too many to count. I let out a deep sigh and took the towel off my head, letting damp red curls fall on both sides of my shoulders. I wouldn't style them. With the corner of my lips pulled up into a smirk, I moved away from the mirror and finished drying the rest of my body with the towel. Once I was done, I slipped into the same dress I've had on for almost four days now. It looked dirtier under the dim light of the room—the beautiful fabric now ugly. Staring at myself i

  • Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)   Chapter 7: Choose A Dress

    Elodie's POV “LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT OF HERE!” I kept pounding my fists against the door, shouting through the cracks, but all I got in return was silence. The same heavy silence that had followed me for two straight days. Yes, I had been locked in this room for two days now. How did I know? Because daylight had faded through the curtains twice before darkness returned. Because sleep kept finding me and leaving me again in restless pieces. And because every hour in this prison felt long enough to count. No maid had brought me food since I knocked away the food tray days ago. And now, the hunger was twisting my insides and messing with my thoughts. "Hey! Let me out!!" I continued banging, using the last strength I've got. That's when I heard it. Footsteps grew louder as they approached the door. I paused, placing my ear against the door to be sure. I took two steps back when I heard keys jingle into the keyhole. Then the door pushed open, revealing the same maids from be

    Elodie's POV I was left alone in that grand living room. The men who brought me here had already disappeared through the tall entrance doors, leaving me standing in the heavy silence. My hands were finally free of ropes, and I rubbed at my sore wrists before glancing around, truly taking in the

  • Craving His Captive: The Cartel Heir's Obsession (Book 1)   Chapter 5: A Handsome Devil

    Elodie's POV I felt a sharp sting on my skin, followed by a low buzz from the tattoo gun. The needle pierced through the flesh of my lower abdomen, digging deep. Finally reacting, I twisted on the bed. Wrong move. Because she pressed my thighs apart, hard, and a sob tore out of me. I shouldn't l

    Elodie's POVI stayed frozen, clutching the blanket to my chest. My heart was pounding so fast I thought I’d pass out. The man turned his eyes to me then. For a second, I couldn’t tell if he was another monster or if I’d just been saved by one.He exhaled slowly, rubbing his forehead as if trying

    Elodie's POVI started gently, rubbing my palms over my face, stomach, and hips. I shouldn't be here. I should have never agreed to this trip.I increased the pace, scrubbing my skin, my nails leaving red lines on my body. But that didn't stop me, I went crazy. I started screaming, working faster,
