MY NEW ROLES AS A WIFE AND HOSTAGE As I sat there, lost in thought, I heard a knock at the bedroom door. I jumped, half-expecting to see Lysander, but instead, it was a woman I didn't recognize."Mrs. Vincenzo?" she said hesitantly. "I'm Samantha, the housekeeper. Mr. Vincenzo asked me to help you settle in."I stared at her for a moment, taking in her appearance. She was older than I expected, probably in her fifties, with graying hair pulled back in a neat bun. Her kind eyes crinkled at the corners as she smiled at me."Oh, um, hi," I said, suddenly feeling awkward. "I'm Kylie. But I guess you already knew that."Samantha’s smile widened. "It's nice to meet you, Mrs. Vincenzo. Is there anything you need help with?"I shook my head, then paused. "Actually, could you show me around? This place is like a maze.""Of course," she said, gesturing for me to follow her. "Let's start with the essentials."For the next hour, Samantha gave me a tour of the apartment, showing me where everythi

THE HIGH-RISE CAGEThe place smelled like polished wood, leather, and a hint of floral perfume. It was modern, pristine, and almost... sterile. Glass banisters lined the staircase, and the open kitchen boasted shiny stainless steel appliances with sleek black countertops. A massive black dining table divided the space between the kitchen and the living room. Everything screamed luxury, but it felt cold and impersonal.I could feel Lysander's eyes on me as I took it all in. His gaze made me hyper-aware of every move I made, like I was some kind of exotic animal in a zoo exhibit. I tried to act casual, but my stomach was doing somersaults."So... this is home sweet home, huh?" I said, trying to keep my voice steady.Lysander nodded, his expression unreadable. "It is now. For both of us."I wandered over to the floor-to-ceiling windows, drawn by the breathtaking view of the city below. But as I stood there, all I could think about was how trapped I felt. Sure, it was a beautiful setting

A GLIMPSE OF LYSANDER'S HUMANITYHe spoke to the hostess in low, confident tones, and within minutes we were seated in a small booth near the back. I looked around, still trying to process this new side of him. Lysander, the man who wielded power with a single word, who had made my life a carefully controlled nightmare, was now sitting across from me in a tiny, bustling restaurant, his presence seeming almost out of place.“You don’t like it?” he asked, his voice pulling my gaze back at him.I shook my head quickly. “No, it’s not that. I just didn’t expect…” I trailed off, feeling foolish for even trying to explain.A waitress appeared, her eyes lingering on Lysander a little longer than necessary as she handed us menus. I glanced at him as he studied the options, his face calm and collected, almost as if he did this sort of thing all the time.“What would you like?” he asked without looking up.I scanned the unfamiliar names on the menu, suddenly feeling very out of my depth. “I don’

A LIFE IN LIMBOThe honesty in his voice startled her. For a moment, she glimpsed something raw, almost vulnerable, in his eyes. It vanished as quickly as it appeared, replaced by that cool, confident mask he always wore.“I won’t jump,” she said, the words more for herself than him. “But I can’t live like this either.”“You will,” he murmured, stepping closer, his presence overwhelming in the darkened space. “You’ll adapt. I’ll help you.”“Help me?” she echoed, a bitter laugh escaping her. “You’re the reason I’m trapped here.”“Maybe,” he conceded, reaching out to touch her cheek. “But you’re not alone. You have me.”His fingers were warm against her skin, and despite everything, she leaned into the touch, desperate for some semblance of comfort. “What do you want from me, Lysander?”“Everything,” he whispered, his lips brushing against her temple. “I want everything.”She closed her eyes, his words sinking deep, making her chest ache. “I can’t give you that.”“Not yet,” he agreed, h

TRAPPED IN THE LUXURIOUS PENTHOUSEThe drive to New York felt like the final nail in her coffin. As they crawled through the city, skyscrapers looming above, she stared out the window, trying to ignore the tight knot of anxiety in her stomach. The lights of the city blurred together, a shimmering contrast to the darkness in her heart. She glanced sideways at Lysander, his profile hard and unreadable.“So,” his voice broke the silence, casual but with an edge that made her skin prickle. “Thinking about running?”Her heart stuttered, but she kept her expression neutral. “Where would I go?” she muttered, knowing full well he’d find her wherever she ran. It wasn’t a real question; it was a reminder—a cruel one—that she was caught in his web, with no escape.He glanced at her, a shadow of a smirk playing on his lips. “Good. It’s better if you don’t even try.”They pulled into a private garage, the kind of place where only those with deep pockets and darker secrets could afford to park. As

A POIGNANT FAREWELL AND NEW BEGINNINGS"Is everything alright?" Lysander asked, his eyes moving from me to Rosy.I felt Rosy shrink behind me, and I instinctively moved to shield her. "She's okay," I said, my voice quivering slightly. "Just... the sheets. It was a bit much for her."Kim's brow furrowed. "Christ, she shouldn't have had to see that. Girls of her age shouldn't be exposed to such things." He looked at Lysander, who nodded dismissively."It's an unfortunate necessity," Lysander said, his tone matter-of-fact.I felt a flash of anger at their casual dismissal of Rosy's distress, but I pushed it down. This wasn't the time or place to argue."She needs some tea," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "To settle her stomach."Kim immediately straightened. "I can get that for her. And I'll stay with her if you need to get back to the guests."I felt Rosy tensed behind me. "That's very kind," I said quickly, "but I think Rosy would prefer if I stayed with her. She's... not feel

BEYOND THE FACADEI smoothed the fabric again, more out of nervous habit than necessity. "Thanks. I figured I should look presentable, you know, meeting yourfather and mine after... well, you know."A smirk played at the corner of his lips. "Ah yes, the morning-after parade. Are you ready for the scrutiny?"I laughed nervously. "As ready as I'll ever be. Though I suppose someone could always lift my skirt and check my thighs for bruises, just to be sure."The humor vanished from Lysander's face in an instant. He crossed the room in two long strides, his hand gripping my arm. "If anyone so much as thinks about touching you like that, they'll lose their fucking hand. Understood?"I nodded, my heart racing at his sudden intensity. Part of me was thrilled at his protectiveness, while another part screamed danger. I couldn't tell if this was genuine care or just another form of control."Come," he said, releasing my arm and offering his hand. "Let's not keep them waiting."As we descended

A NEW REALITYAva's eyes met mine, confusion replacing anger for a moment. I tugged her toward the bathroom, desperate for a moment of privacy. As soon as the door closed behind us, Ava rounded on me."Kylie, what the hell is going on? Did he hurt you? I swear I'll kill him if he—""No, Ava, stop," I interrupted, my voice barely above a whisper. "It's not what you think. Lysander... he didn't touch me."Ava's eyes widened in disbelief. "What? But the sheets..."I took a deep breath, steeling myself for the confession. "It wasn't my blood. Lysander... he cuts himself. To protect me."The silence that followed was deafening. Ava stared at me, her mouth hanging open in shock. "He... what? Why would he do that?"I shook my head, still struggling to understand it myself. "I don't know. But he did. I'm still... I'm still a virgin, Ava."My sister's face cycled through a range of emotions—confusion, relief, and then suspicion. "Kylie, are you sure? This doesn't make any sense. Why would Lysa

UNSPOKEN RULES OF THE MAFIA“How am I supposed to believe you can convince everyone we’ve consummated our marriage when you keep flinching away from my touch?”“Believe me, the flinching will make everyone believe the lie even more. I definitely wouldn’t have stopped flinching away from your touch if you’d taken what’s yours. The more I flinch, the more they will see you as the monster you want them to think you are.”Lysander chuckled, the sound low and amused. “I think you might know more about playing the game of power than I expected.”I shrugged. “My father is Consigliere.”He tilted his head, acknowledging my words. Then he brought his hand up to cup my face. “What I meant earlier was that your face doesn’t look like you’ve been kissed.”My eyes widened. “I’ve never…” But of course he knew that already.His lips collided with mine, and my palms instinctively came up against his chest. I didn’t push him away. His tongue teased my lips, demanding entrance. I hesitated, but then I
