I opened the door wider for him. He stretched his hand towards me, holding a glass of water. Oh, silly me.

โ€œWhy are you giving me this?โ€ I asked with an arched brow.

โ€œDon't you need it?โ€

I blinked at him as I took the glass of water and placed it on my bedside table. โ€œThank you for the water,โ€ I said with a faint smile.

All of a sudden, he grabbed my arm. โ€œWhat is it?โ€

I asked with a perplexed expression. โ€œYou keep hiding this hand behind you. Why?โ€

He asked as he tilted his head.

โ€œUhโ€“nothing. What's so special about handing a hand?โ€

โ€œI know your mannerisms, and you don't do that. This is the first time. Did you hurt yourself?โ€ He asked as he tried to examine my hand.

I guess he's very observant.

โ€œUhโ€“no, I'm fine. You can go to bed.โ€

โ€œElena.โ€ The way he mentioned my name made my stomach twist in a way it had never before.

Before I could react, he brought my hand closer to his nose and sniffed it. Uh-what the fuck?

โ€œGattina, you've been playing with yourself

    ArcherWe headed to E Corp to meet our new representative. We needed to establish that kind of relationship before we could work. I was a bit hesitant, though.Venetia works there. I'm not ready to see her right now. Although I doubt if that would be possible. We arrived inside the meeting room, and everyone was already seated, waiting for us.My eyes locked with Venetia immediately. I entered the room, but I quickly looked away. โ€œWelcome sir.โ€ A curly-headed guy said with a bow. I'm guessing it's him. โ€œThank you so much for joining us, Mr Archer, we thought you wouldnโ€™t make it.โ€ I ignored Vinetia's remark. โ€œProceed with the meeting.โ€โ€œHello, everyone. My name is Tommy Roberts, and it is an honour to be given this opportunity to serve in this wonderful establishment.โ€ He said with a wide smile plastered on his face.The meeting went on for about 20 minutes before we concluded. I was on my way out when Tommy approached me. โ€œThank you so much for this opportunity, sir.โ€ He thanked

    Elena I stared in the mirror for a while, feeling paranoid. Will he be here too? Oh, I'm fucking scared. This place is not as crowded as the last event; how would he be able to attend with all this security? โ€œHi.โ€ A soft voice called out, and I turned to look at the person. It was the woman from earlier, I can't remember what her name was. She seems sweet, I'm guessing that she is one of Archer's mistresses. โ€œAre you Eddie's new girlfriend?โ€ โ€œWhy are you calling him Eddie?โ€ I did remember the old man from the event calling him Ed. Now this woman is also calling him Eddie. โ€œThat is his name. He just doesn't broadcast it because he doesn't want people digging into his matter. He's called Edward Cattaneo.โ€ Wow, his name is beautiful. I prefer that to that silly nickname. โ€œOh.โ€ โ€œAre you his girlfriend?โ€ โ€œ Why are you so interested in that?โ€ I asked with a puzzled expression. I couldn't help but notice how bent she was on finding that out. Why is she so interested in that

    Elena โ€œElena, Elena, wait. Let me explain.โ€โ€œExplain what you fucking cunt? You wanted me to die, didn't you?โ€At this point, I was on top of him as he was pinned down. My hands were in his curly hair as I gripped it tightly. Causing him immense pain. He struggled and tried to pull me off, but I didn't budge. โ€œYou sold me off, to some fucking cult. I was sold to an old man you fucking bastard. I watched my life flash before me countless times, I was in hell while you were probably enjoying yourself. So what? Are you here to find more victims? Did you use up all the 1 million?โ€โ€œElena, listen. It's really not what you think. I was in debt, a serious one. They were after me, my life was in danger. I needed to save myself. You should be happy for me. I'm safe and sound now. I knew you'd escape, you're a tough girl.โ€I scoffed in disbelief. I thought maybe getting an explanation from him would calm me down a bit but now I'm more furious. โ€œYou thought I could escape a place heavily g

    Elena โ€œEl, El, El.โ€ My name echoed in the small room. I recognise this room. My chest went up and down as I breathed heavily. My hands started to tremble, and my lips quivered. I immediately turned to my side and saw her leaving. โ€œMum!โ€ I tried climbing off my bed, but I couldn't. My legs were bound to the bed. I tried moving, but it felt like I was glued to the bed; all efforts were useless. โ€œWhere the fuck do you think you're going?โ€ My father asked as he smacked my cheeks.A loud yelp escaped my lips as his hand landed on my other cheek. He grabbed my face and forced me to look at him.โ€œThis is all your fault. Remember that. She left because of you.โ€I shook my head vigorously. โ€œNo, no, no, no.โ€ I shut my eyes tightly. My eyes opened and I realised that I was now in my room in Archerโ€™s house. My hair was damp from the sweat. Beads of sweat were evident on my forehead and my heartbeat raced. Realising that I was here brought me a tiny bit of relief. I placed my hand on my hea

    Archer I tapped my forefinger on the table quietly as Don talked. Our shipments in Brazil were delayed, so we needed a plan to amend that. That was a total dick move if the Brazilians have a hand in this. They're playing with fire. It's like they sometimes forget who they're dealing with. The New York Mafia is the most powerful gang. Playing with us is like playing with fire. โ€œI need answers, gentlemen. How did this happen?โ€ Hugo looked tense. Well, he has to be because it was his mission.Although I believe it's not entirely his fault. Hugo is a perfectionist, so I know that he tried his best. โ€œThere was an ambush at the port, sir.โ€ The veins on his forehead looked like they were going to pop. โ€œThe Brazilians didn't hold the end of their bargain. They bailed on us when the Russians showed up.โ€ The room became noisy with murmurs. Of course, Russians again. These fuckers never give us a break. They're tailing us everywhere. I'm so sick of them and their stupid little games. Somet

    Elena I can't believe that I'm getting ready to go to that skank's birthday party. I don't know why Archer insists on going with me. She hates me; she wouldn't want to see me at her birthday party, so why is he taking me along?Archer is so unpredictable sometimes. I can never predict his next move. I still remember the night he stayed with me when I had a nightmare. I still can't comprehend. Why did he stay? I smoothed my hand over my beige dress as I turned to get a better look at myself in the mirror. How does Archer find such good clothes that fit my taste? I mean, I would have always worn clothes like this if I wasn't poor. It's almost like he's making me live my rich girl dream. The little girl in me must be giggling right now. I've always wanted to have expensive outfits, and now I'm getting them for free. The only thing I hate about this is that I'm attending events I don't want to go to. The dress was so beautiful, accentuating my curves nicely. I don't know how to do m

    Elena We arrived in front of a heavy metal gate. After a few seconds, the doors opened to let us in. After driving for a few minutes, we finally got to the venue. It was glistening with lights and balloons. There was a huge pool with people surrounding it. My eyes darted around like a little kid. This place looked so good. The ballroom was huge, with beautiful chandeliers and beautiful paintings. โ€œI thought you wouldnโ€™t come.โ€ We both turned our heads to the source of the voice. I believe his name is Hugo. I don't even know if they're friends or enemies. โ€œDon gave me a special invitation, I'm not ready to pick up a fight with him.โ€ He said as he slipped his hands into his pockets. He was wearing a cyan coloured top and some long pants. He looked good, though. โ€œWow, the almighty Archer is now following rules.โ€ He scoffed, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips. โ€œShut up.โ€ There was a long pause as Hugo turned to me. โ€œI have such bad manners, welcome. I can't touch y

    Archer Ric, Savien, and I stood in the garden as we talked about the brazil shipment. Although I felt uneasy with the way Elena stared at Savien, I decided to play it cool. โ€œWe're still trying to salvage the situation. The Russians seem to be getting very close to us.โ€ Ric added, his voice clipped but steady. โ€œI want you guys to dig deeper into this case even though Don didn't put me in charge. I need to get to the bottom of this.โ€Savien replied with a firm nod. โ€œWe will, boss.โ€ Ric said in a low tone. โ€œAlso, make sure that the new guards areโ€”โ€โ€œMr Archer, Mr Archer.โ€ One of the guards rushed towards me. His voice was filled with panic, and he was out of breath. We all looked at him with keen eyes. Waiting for him to say something. My brows furrowed as I looked at him. โ€œWhat is it?โ€ I asked impatiently in a cold voice. โ€œMissโ€“Miss Elena. She fell in the pool. She's not coming up.โ€ For a split second, I felt like my heart stopped beating. Then, without another word, I broke in

    Elenaโ€œI'm going to fuck you so hard that you'll never want the touch of any man ever again.โ€ He said, making my heart skip a beat. โ€œWhaโ€“โ€ Before I could finish my sentence, he smashed his lips on mine, this time aggressively. My hands were on his chest, trying to push him away, but it was like pushing against a hard surface. I felt his hand move towards my back, cupping my ass aggressively. A sudden gasp escaped my lips, and he entered my mouth with that opportunity. The kiss was so rough that I couldn't breathe properly, and my lips started to hurt. We both fell on the bed, and he pinned both of my arms beside me. He broke the kiss, and I let out a loud gasp, trying to take in as much air as I could. โ€œEdward, let me go.โ€ I pleaded while trying to free myself from his grasp. He looked at me intently and connected his lips with mine, and broke it again. โ€œThe rain drenched you. You need some warmth.โ€ And with that, he kissed me again, roughly.He slipped off his shirt and went back

    ElenaI just stared at Joker, confused. What was he doing here, and how did he find me? He gestured for me to step out of the car, not caring about the pouring rain. I exhaled loudly as I stepped out.One of his guys rushed over to give me an umbrella, but I rejected it. โ€œFeisty, like always. You don't know how that makes you so hot,โ€ he said in a flirtatious tone. โ€œWhat do you want, Joker? Enough of this Joker madness, what is your name?โ€He made his way towards me. His hair was damp from the rain, and I couldn't shake off the fact that he had a slight resemblance to Archer. I shook off that feeling and just waited for his response. โ€œWell, Malysh, there's a lot I want, but you're making it very difficult for me. Firstly, why the fuck are you fleeing from Archer when we had an agreement already?โ€โ€œBecause I'm sick and tired of that misogynistic fucker, he only sees me as an object, nothing more nothing less. And I'll be damned to stay even a second longer with such a man. All you me

    ArcherMy men and I arrived at Elena's apartment, and from the look of things, it seemed she had already left. Wow, Elena, such a fast girl. I'm impressed. A smile appeared on my face as I brought out a cigarette and lit it up. โ€œStart searching every nearby hotel, guesthouse, everywhere,โ€ I instructed my men, and they all left hurriedly as I stood in her room. I could perceive her faint scent. I started walking around the room.I scanned every little detail. I stopped in front of her dresser, which had a portrait of a woman who looked so much like her. Her mother, maybe, but the picture looked more like a drawing. I kept on looking through things when I found another picture. My eyes widened when I saw the picture. It was Elena, when she was little, sitting on a man's lap. She looks very disturbed and unhappy, whereas the man is grinning ear to ear. That wasn't the reason for my reaction earlier. The man Elena was seated on was oddly familiar. I kept on staring at him keenly, tryin

    ElenaThe car slowed to a stop at the edge of town, the streetlights barely reaching this far. A sigh of relief left my lips when I realised that I had left the city. Bailey rested her hands on my thigh and patted it gently. โ€œThis is as far as I can take you.โ€ I swallowed hard, my hands trembling as I reached for the door handle. โ€œI understand. Thank you very much.โ€ She looked at me intently, her expression torn between concern and something elseโ€”pity, maybe. โ€œAre you sure youโ€™ll be okay?โ€ I forced a small, tight smile. โ€œI have to be.โ€ Bailey sighed, reaching into her purse and pulling out a wad of cash. โ€œTake this.โ€ I hesitated. โ€œBaileyโ€”โ€ I do need the cash, but it's too embarrassing; I feel so ashamed. โ€œTake it, Elena,โ€ she insisted. โ€œYou donโ€™t know whatโ€™s ahead, and Iโ€™d rather not think about you stranded with nothing.โ€ Gratitude burned in my chest, but I didnโ€™t have the words to thank her properly. Instead, I took the money and squeezed her hand. โ€œI wonโ€™t forget thi

    ElenaSena and I couldn't take the car all the way because we feared we'd get tracked down. The cold night air bit at my skin as Sena and I hurried through the dark alleyways, our breaths rugged and uneven. My heart pounded so hard that it drowned out the sound of our footsteps. We had finally escaped Archerโ€™s mansion, but we werenโ€™t safe yet. Not even close. We entered another dimly lit alley that led us to a door. She urged me to enter, and I did. We walked slowly because the way forward was very narrow and very dark. We entered a larger sitting area, but it was empty and filled with smoke, mostly from cigarettes. โ€œAntonio!โ€ Sena yelled, and a stout man emerged with a displeased look.He had short wavy hair with so many tattoos on his arm. He looked over at me and then at Sena. โ€œWhat?โ€ He said in an irritated, thick Italian tone while sighing. โ€œWhat the fuck do you mean by that?โ€ Woah, I immediately turned to look at Sena if it was the same Sena I knew. Did she just curse? โ€œCas

    Archer I know why Don has called me over to his house. I don't know why he over pampers Crystal, making her believe that she can have whatever she wants. Marriage is a huge deal for crying out loud. How can you just agree to that because she's your lovely daughter? What makes her think that I'd want to settle down with someone as evil as her?I arrived inside the mansion and headed to his office. I knocked once before entering. I wish I wasn't here. Don was sitting with his face down, engrossed with the documents lying in front of him. I turned to my side, and Crystal was standing there with her hands folded on her chest. She looked at me with an expression, but I didn't have time to read and evaluate. I rolled my eyes so hard. โ€œTake a seat, Ed.โ€ Don said, still not making eye contact. I pulled out a chair and sat on it while tapping my forefinger on my thigh slowly. The more he delayed, the faster I tapped. It was just a matter of time before I bolted out of here because he coul

    ElenaI hugged my knees as I sat on the bed quietly. Lost in thoughts. Ever since we both found out that I was pregnant, Edward has become very clingy. He's very overprotective and mostly sleeps in my room. I only get to breathe when he has work to do. I don't want to be with him, I just can't. I can't live like this, I can't be with a man like Edward. An idea suddenly struck me, and I jumped off my bed and headed straight to the kitchen. โ€œSena, I need your help.โ€ I didn't wait for her response as I dragged her to my room. I closed the door behind her and pulled her closer to me.โ€œSena, I need your help.โ€โ€œWhat is it, Elena? You look very tense.โ€ She asked with a worried look.โ€œIโ€”I'm pregnant.โ€ Her eyes widened in shock. โ€œOh my Gosh, I mean congratulations.โ€โ€œDon't say that, I feel terrible,โ€ I said as I paced around with my hand on my temple. โ€œSo what do you want to do?โ€โ€œI really do not want to have Edward's child, but that doesnโ€™t mean that I'm going to end this poor child's li

    ElenaMy heart was beating so fast as I stared at the doctor in shock. I was just hoping that he would later say that he was joking. Please, please, say you're joking. I couldn't even look at Edward. How am I pregnant? Fuck, what am I going to do?How could I get pregnant with an engaged man? A dangerous mafia man at that. My plans to escape are now ruined, what if he asks me to stay and be his mistress because of the kid?How can I be with a man I've betrayed? Oh fuck, I'm doomed. What am I going to do? I don't want to abort the child either.โ€œThanks, Doctor, you can leave. You know the drill, if I find out that this news is circulating, I'm coming for you and your family.โ€ He threatened the doctor. โ€œNo need to worry, sir.โ€ The doctor said as he packed his stuff and left. I was still shocked and glued to my bed. I couldn't think straight. I felt the bed sink beside me, so I turned and saw Edward sitting down beside me.I shifted away from him. โ€œI won't abort my baby,โ€ I said defe

Sena has literally become like my best friend here, so I just talk to her anytime I'm bored, and she's very sweet. โ€œI think the Master is really warming up to you.โ€โ€œThat's just what you think; Edward is just using me to kill time,โ€ I said while sighing and lying on the sofa.โ€œWait, what did you say?โ€ She turned with a shocked expression. I shot her a confused look. โ€œI said that I think he's just using me.โ€โ€œNo, you mentioned a name before that.โ€โ€œEdward?โ€ Her hand shot to her mouth before looking around and rushing to my side. โ€œWhat is it?โ€ I asked with a puzzled expression. โ€œDid he tell you to call him that?โ€ I chuckled lightly at her statement. โ€œWhy do you look so surprised? I mean, it's his name. Of course, people are going to call him that.โ€โ€œNo,โ€ she sighed inwardly. โ€œYou don't get it; no one dares call him by his name; the only person who calls him that is the mafia leader and his best friend.
