Grisella's POV

He wasn't going to die.

It wouldn't kill him. Right?

I held the mug delicately, turning back and forth. Letting out a shuddered breath, I decided to turn the door knob, plastering the most pathetic smile ever.

"Took you so long to - Oh." Julian pushed himself backward, away from his desk. "I thought it's the servant"

"Yeah, I was about coming to tell you something but met her at the door and offered to bring in the coffee for you" I smiled, holding the cup firmly.

"Hmm" He nodded, looking at me keenly.

"What?" My finger began to trace the edge of the cup, shifting on my foot due to the unsettling feeling I was having.

"The coffee?" He raised his eyebrow at me. When his eyes dropped down to the coffee cup, I gasped.

"Oh. Don't mind me" I chuckled nervously, pushing myself to the table. Romeo had given me a pill but for some reason, I just couldn't trust it.

How do I even know if Romeo was to be trusted?

I shook my head internally concluding on the fact that my Uncle

    "Hands up or I'd shoot" A guy yelled from miles away, his gun trained at me.Slowly, I raised my hands up in surrender. I watched him closely, calculating if I should just take him down. My eyes circled around the building, surveying the environment.I would barely survive with all those men. I needed to be smart since I was in an unfamiliar zone."Your master let you out of his den" A lady chuckled, tapping the shoulder of the guy whose gun was trained at me. He brought it down, tucking it in his pocket I eyed her suspiciously as she walked up to me. "I don't have no master." I answered truthfully because everything I did, I did it consciously and on my own accord. Uncle V advised me not to take revenge but here I am, doing it because they had to pay for everything they did to me. No one gives me order. No one. "Hmm!" She nodded, roaming her hands around my body, breaching all the rules about privacy. She was really overstepping but I knew she was checking if I was armed "Who are

    Julian's POV"Why can't you trust me?" "Because now I know what you are. I know what you're capable of doing!" I yelled, throwing my hands up in frustration.Russo handed me a stick of cigarette, lighting it immediately. Impatiently, I placed it on my lips. "I didn't kidnap Grisella. I have not occasioned any harm towards her. She's the least of my worry because I know she won't last for long" Vincenzo argued "How did you get out?" I eyed him, taking a seat. My legs bobbed up and down nervously. My team were working on tracking her down but they were having a difficult time.I was buying myself time by giving my father my attention so I wouldn't be there rushing their ass and dumping my frustration on themI just want my Grisella back. I didn't know how I let her slip out of my grip and how she manages to bypass my security always shocked the hell out of me. Maybe I should keep standby guards close to the fences?

    Grisella's POVHe was hereHe was really here.I didn't know how to feel. How would you feel if the person you were hoping to come save you was standing there bargaining on your head?Well, at least he'd save me regardless. So, I thoughtMy heart swelled when his eyes met mine. I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding. Why was I so happy to see him?"150 million?" The man countered, standing up as well. My eyes ran down his short length. I gagged in my mouth as I glared at him. He was not only short but had a pot belly and fat too. I declared in my heart that I had suffered. My eyes shifted towards Julian who had his eyes fixated on the man. His mouth was clamped shut, not looking like it was going to open anytime soon."150 millions! Any contender? Don Raniero?" The MC's stupid voice echoed. If it wasn't for my current position, I would've snapped his neck. If we were in a ring, I'd beat his shit in less that 30 minutes. I wasn't even capping. My heart began to beat fa

    Grisella's POVIt was Devani.It was Luciano Devani all these while. I had recently found out his first name was Luciano. How did I see them working together. Where Vincenzo is restricted from acting, Luciano would take over from him, helping him out with his evil deeds.To think he always painted himself as a saint. Pfft."Nrghh!" I groaned, stirring. Remembering the incident that took place yesterday, I jumped up from the bed.I hadn't even laid my eyes on Josie, neither have I heard her voice. How do I even know if she was fine? "What the fuck?" I tried pulling my hand away but the cuff was restricting me. What was more suspicious was that the key was just on the table. The table as well wasn't out of my reach. So suspicious."I see you're up" A voice spoke, making me jerk. My free hand flew to my chest clutching it hard."Jesus Christ" I muttered under my breath, training my eyes towards the direction the voice came fromOnly then did I take in my environment. I was in a well d

    Julian's POV"She said it was cold. I don't believe it" I said to Russo who was silent all these while. "So you think she's pregnant?" Russo folded his arms, calmly looking at me."That is the shit. Do you think she might be seeing someone?" I sat down, clamping my hands together. I wanted to bring a hospital to her but restricted myself from doing that. She said she was fine and I didn't want her to feel like I didn't trust her.Russo burst into fits of laughter, shaking his head. This only seemed to make my blood boil. "Does this fucking look like a soap opera or comedy show to you?" I slammed my hand on the desk.Russo straightened his face immediately. "I mean, you lock her in here everyday so...""You saw how she snuck out of the house. This isn't even the first time she's getting out of our sight and -""It's not what you think, Boss" Russo said, like he knew something that I didn't. As if to make it more suspicious, his eyes held a sad expression."What is it, Russo. What are

    Grisella's POV"Say you love my company" Jenna smirked at me."Love? That's not in my dictionary" I smirked at her, looking at the time for the 10th time today.I was waiting for her to go out so I could get dressed and head out. I don't know why I feel like Jenna was asked to stay with me to regulate my movement."I'm not going out anymore then" She sat on the couch. "No!" I screamed almost immediately, jumping down from the island. She raised her eyebrow giving me an amused look. "Are you trying to get rid of me, Grisella Morretti?" She asked. I didn't want her to be suspicious and I was failing at it.My phone came on but I silenced it as fast as I could. I began to type away fast, forgetting Jenna was still there"Do you have an online boyfriend that you want to go out to see?" Jenna wiggled her eyebrow at me. "I could cover up for you" I choked on my saliva, coughing out loud. The cough then turned into a loud laugh. "I'm not trying to get a man killed again." "Ahhh. Julian r

    Julian's POVI couldn't believe my eyes. My mouth wouldn't even close properlySlowly, my eyes came down to meet the bubbly kid who I met crying a few minutes ago. I had soft spots for kids. It was something not everyone knew. Maybe it's because I didn't have much kid around me while I was growing. I think the only kid I watched grow closely was Jenna. "We should go, E" Grisella finally found her tongue, taking the little boy, Ethan, by his hand.Her eyes still looked puff from crying and this only sparked up more curiosity in me. My brain couldn't recall the last time I saw Grisella consciously cry. I mean, not crying because of a bad dream but crying because she felt some type of emotion that led to that."You taught me to be polite, don't be like that. Say hi" Ethan stood his ground, not wanting to follow her.Grisella smiled briefly at him. "Okay, E. For you" She ruffled his hair before turning to me saying a quick 'hi' that I almost missed. The way he looked at her spoke so mu

    I should've hid him properly.Fuck! I shouldn't have said he was my child because I'd be exposing him to danger.I didn't want that for my boy. He didn't deserve to go through this rough, dark life."Maybe I should call Uncle. He'd know what to do" I picked up my phone, holding it mid air. "No! I can handle it myself" Dropping the phone, I bit my fingers, pacing back and forth. What the fuck do I do?"How about you start by explaining who the fuck the child is" A voice said, making me jolt. I clutched my chest, throwing my head back as I puffed out air through my mouth"Jesus Christ, Julian" Glaring at him, I folded my hand under my chest. "Oh hey, Dumbo. Didn't know you were still live" "Takes a lot to bring me down." Russo rolled his eyes, walking back outside. I knew he was giving us space. "Grisella.." He started but I raised my hands up. "I don't want to talk, Julian. I'm not cut out for that" I shook my head, walking up to my phone. Before I got to the phone, he snatched it

I eyed him in disgust. "Oh! It's because I'm placing a charge on the almighty Don Devani's child""It's not that. It's just -""Bullshit. You know what, I made a mistake. I'll just find my way around this shit." I dismissed them. My head panged hard so I rested it on the bed. The strong smell of spirit and drugs dived through my nostril almost making me throw up. "Ma'am -""I don't want you to press charge again. I will handle it" I hissed harshly, eyeing the two police men"What's going on?" Julian held the door open looking between the police men and I.A small smile crept to my lips when I saw him. Wait, why was I smiling? I bit my lips taking in his sweet smell that had filled the room, covering the strong hospital smell. Marry men with strong perfumes and good colognes. Wait. Marry? What was I s

I..""You seem not to understand the situation you're in, Big boy" I chuckled, turning my ring in my hands. "I ... He'd kill me" He cried like a small child but the disgusting type who cried with spit dropping down their mouth "Not if you get out of here alive" I nodded at Russo. "I wanted to do this the calm way but you had to.""Ferdinand Jedro. Age 37. One wife by name Jessica Jedro and your sweet little child Amara Jedro" Russo smirked at him, licking his lips. Russo was just the right man to be my right hand. I can't even lie. He had more psychotic scary facial expressions than I did. He also was ready to do anything I asked."No. No" Jedro shook his head at me. I'm calling him the shortest name. I ain't gat no shitty time to call long shit. My hands were pushing me to hit him more and relieve myself off this anger I had inside me. His face was all purple

    Julian's POV"Don't do this to me." I kept repeating as I held her close to my chest, rocking her backward and forward."Please" My voice came out softly as I kissed her head. "She's.. she's getting cold." I spoke up. "She's getting cold. Drive fucking fast or I swear to God""She'll be fine, Cuz" Caleb said from the front seat. Josie didn't come with us. She was busy beating the shit out of Hannah before we left.My heart felt empty and dark. A huge black hole sat in my heart. It was like my soul was drifting out of my body.I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream. I wanted to kill Hannah but mostly, I want my baby girl to be alright. That's all that matters "Tell Russo to contact Devani and tell him that I wouldn't let this one slide" When the car stopped in front of the hospital building, I told Caleb before carrying my girl out of the car."Yes Cousin" I heard Caleb say."Emergency!" I heard a nurse say and in less than few minutes, they brought a stretcher for her but I wouldn't le

When her hands touched mine, I jerked slightly before my body began to relax. "It's me. You're not talking to a stranger"Josie's soft black eyes settled on mine. She looked calm. But she was one of Uncle's closest and I didn't know if telling her my feelings is the right thing to do."Josie I'm ... I don't think I want to go on with this -" My eyes drifted to the mansion and then to the guards who stood far away. "Revenge" Josie completed, squeezing my hand as if to let me know that she's here with me. Biting my lower lips, I nodded casting my head down in shame. "It's going to look like I don't care about my parents anymore or I don't care about Uncle but I do. It's

    Julian's POV"International passport?" Flipping the worn out passport in my hand, I grazed my thumb on the part the name was supposed to be. Squinting my eyes as I brought it close to my face, I tried to capture the name which almost resembled dust on the plastic card. It didn't look like it said Grisella. It said something else but then my eyes darted to the picture - a younger version of Grisella. My body jerked slightly, cold chills running down my spine.That was weird.Something struck me - a sense of a familiar event. The pictures of the event wasn't too clear in my head but the face - She looked like Grisella.Nah. My head was just playing wild games with me. "I don't know if the police didn't check her up before bringing her to the hospital that day but I found this on her. I knew I should've returned it but I -""Why didn't you tell her about it?" I questioned. He scoffed, shaking his head. "She barely remembers her past life - Uhhh" On realizing what he said, he cleared h

She tried again, following me closely."Not your regular kind of surprise and it took weeks or probably a month to get it done but I got it done." I smirked over my shoulder at her. Like I said, she wouldn't see this coming. I took the box for Carlo, placing it on the island. I felt a rush of adrenaline pump through my vein as I waited eagerly for she to check itShe didn't need to like it. I just had to prove a point to her.She gave me a distrustful look first before touching the box with the tip of her finger, like it was going to explode in her face or something. A slight chuckle escaped my mouth at such act."I'd rather choke you to death while I fucked your last breath out of your mouth than gift you a ticking time bomb" I smirked at her, opening the box myself.

    Julian's POV"Argh!" I groaned as I thrusted into her tight wet cunt. Her walls clenched around my cock, making me shudder. She was just perfect. Everything about her was just so perfect. Her small perky boobs. Her small pink cunt that always throbbed for me. Her small mouth that worked wonders around my cock - Fuck. Grisella just had to be my match."Master, I ... I can't hold it any longer" She cried out. I pulled her head backward, slamming furiously into her my cock pulsating inside her"Cum, Vixen" I commanded, holding her ass up as her hips bucked, coming down from its high. Slowly, I pulled out my length from her sore cock. "You did great, Vixen. Another round?" She rolled out of the bed, stumbling a bit on her foot. A small smile crept onto my lips as I realized that her legs were wobbly. I was proud of myself."I barely slept last night because -""I couldn't get enough of you. I can't get enough of you, Vixen. Your body responded same way too" I strolled towards her, my

The guards were watching us but we didn't care. His hand roamed around my body, touching everywhere. I arched my back forward, pulling him into me as my tongue tangled with his. "Vixen, move away from the door knob a bit" He tapped my ass lightly. He turned the door knob down, pushing us inside. He had begun to remove his shirt when I realized I was dirty. I didn't want him licking all over me, contaminating germs."Julian..." I whispered breathlessly, holding his shoulder lightly as his soft lips latched on my neck."Don't tell me you want to stop now, Vixen because -""I'm not clean" I blurted out. He lingered for a while, placing wet kisses on my neck. "I'm all sweaty and need to take my bath" A soft sigh left my lips when his sweet torture on my neck stopped.

    Julian's PovShe's... She's here.She's really the one. "That's our girl!" Everyone roared. She didn't seem to notice me as she took a defensive stance against her opponent.She looked different. The Grisella I knew or I thought I knew wasn't what I was seeing. She looked soulless. Her eyes were burning with fury. A part of me liked it. I was turned on - Damn."Start talking" I placed a slip on the table. The guy - my partner for tonight, raised his lazy drunken eyes at me in confusion. "What?" Groaning, I sat down facing him. "I need to know things about that girl over there. I need to know everything you know about her"He looked over at Grisella. "She's every man's dream" He began to laugh as he checked her out. I slipped my hand under the table, a small knife placed on his penis, I smirked evilly at him. "Firstly, don't you ever fucking at her that way again." I added more pressure to the knife causing his eyes to fly open, fear evident in them. "Secondly, she belongs to Don
