Chapter Twenty-four

Rain

His secretary? That meant I’d have to be with him every single second of the day. It meant I wouldn’t have a life of my own, wouldn’t be able to do anything for myself—only what he wanted, only what he permitted. But the look on his face left no room for argument. He meant every word he said, and I knew there was nothing I could do.

This was it. This was the real punishment.

Now, I would have to live my life for him. I would have to live the way he wanted—and I didn’t have a choice. The last choice I had was trying to run away, and that wasn’t an option anymore. It would never be again.

“You’re quiet,” his voice cut in again—cold and soft, the kind of tone that made my heart race all over again. “You should be. You should sit and reflect on what you did—and remind yourself never to do it again. After that, get prepared to start working with me tomorrow. I hate lateness,” he added, and without waiting for a response, he walked away.

  • In The Arms Of The Blind Don   Day One As His Secretary

    Chapter Twenty-fiveEnzoI didn’t ask Rain to work for me to punish her—but to keep her close. As much as I knew she wouldn’t dare try to run away again, there was still that lingering doubt. I couldn’t completely trust her. She was a woman, after all. And women? They had done enough damage to me to prove they couldn’t be trusted.Was it Tina? Or Rose? Fiona? So many more who came into my life through deceit, only to leave me shattered after I gave them everything. I swore I’d never make that mistake again. I’d never give a woman my heart, or my trust. They didn’t deserve it.Rain would stay close, follow every rule I laid down. No questions. No hesitation. I’d have her beside me every second of the day, and with that, I’d prove to both Mom and Eduardo that I could have a woman of my own. One I could control, one I could claim.Maybe—just maybe—if I’d done the same with the others, they wouldn’t have betrayed me. They would have been either too scared, or too hooked on the dominance,

    Chapter Twenty-sixRainI knew I wasn’t supposed to talk. Enzo had already made it clear—I wasn’t here to contribute or get involved. My only job was to stand by his side and do nothing else. He didn’t hire me because he thought I was capable. He hired me to monitor me, to keep me close so I wouldn’t run again. And I’d promised myself I’d follow his rules. I had to.But I just couldn’t stand there. I couldn’t watch them scramble and stress over something I actually understood—something that had always been a part of me.Fashion was my thing. It was more than just a dream—it was who I was. And this moment, as tense as it was, felt like a chance to do something that mattered. Maybe, just maybe, if I could help Enzo now, I’d be able to redeem myself—maybe that guilt of nearly getting him killed would finally loosen its grip on my chest.“I can come up with something,” I said quietly. “If it’s about fashion, I can help.”The man—Gregor—turned to me with a wide grin that lit up his whole f

    Chapter Twenty-sevenRainAndrew.Andrew Blake.He was my first love. A beautiful kind of love—though painfully one-sided. Before I could even gather the courage to admit how I felt, Andrew was already dating the hottest girl in school. And me? I was just the tacky nerd who knew nothing but her books.We grew closer when we joined the same study group. He needed help to raise his grades and asked for mine. We became best friends, inseparable through the rest of college—until we lost contact.I couldn’t believe it. I never thought I’d see him again. I had completely buried the memories, tucked them away into some forgotten corner of my heart. And now… he was here. Back in my life. And my heart—God—my heart still skipped at the sight of him, just like it used to. Each step Andrew took toward the sitting area sent my chest into a storm, thoughts and emotions racing through my mind all at once.Could this be the beginning of something new with him? There was no Elisa here. No hottest-girl

  • In The Arms Of The Blind Don   Andrew VS Enzo 2

    Chapter Twenty-eight Rain My heart thumped with confusion, a mix of pain, disappointment, and excitement stabbing at my chest. I didn’t know if I should turn to Enzo and ask him, right there in front of everyone, why he couldn’t tell them I was his wife. Why would he pay thirty million dollars to marry me just to keep me hidden? Why act so possessive at home, keep me tethered to his side in public, only to deny the truth when it mattered? I didn’t understand him. I didn’t know what he was thinking. And on the other side of it all was Andrew—his eyes glowing, his smile wide and genuine. He looked truly happy to see me, excited even, a stark contrast to the cold, unreadable expression on Enzo’s face. I stood there, caught in the middle. My heart pounded painfully against my ribs, torn between the man who held me in silence and the one who embraced me in front of the world. I wanted to be seen. I wanted to be married to someone who would be proud to call me his wife. Someo

    Chapter Twenty-nine. Enzo. I just hoped Rain had an explanation for what she did out there. I hoped she had some way to defend herself—for flirting with another man right in front of me. What exactly does she take me for? And why the hell is it so hard to make her understand these things? I was her husband. I am in control. I decide every single thing about her. Does she not get that? Does she not understand that defying me—provoking me—could cost her more than she could ever afford? What did she even think she was doing out there? Jerking my hand away like that… for another man? And what now? Was she going to run off with him and divorce me next? She doesn’t understand. She can’t. I’m the only one who can do that. I get to decide when she leaves. Not her. But she didn’t get it. No matter what I did, no matter how many times I made it clear—I was in control, not her—Rain still didn’t understand. Heck, why won’t she get it? I had punished her before, had shown her what h

    Chapter Thirty.RainThe last thing I wanted was for Andrew to lose his job. I knew how determined he was, how hard he must have worked to get to this position. Losing all of that—just because of me? That wouldn’t be fair.I didn’t want that. But I also didn’t want to answer Enzo’s questions. If he couldn’t tell the world I was his wife, if he was so ashamed of me that he couldn’t even say it in front of his employees, then I didn’t owe him an explanation. I didn’t have to respond.My heart slammed against my chest. I didn’t know what to do. I was torn, completely conflicted. Andrew couldn’t lose his job over me. He couldn’t lose everything he’d built just because of my wounded pride. Even if this would be the last time, I had to say something. I had to give Enzo an answer.I looked up into Enzo’s pale, unreadable eyes. Despite his blindness, it felt like he could see right through me. My heart skipped a beat as our eyes locked. I drew in a shaky breath to steady myself, then cleared

    Chapter Thirty-oneRainI dragged my legs back to my workspace, my entire limb feeling heavier with each step I took, like the weight of confusion and fear was dragging me down to the floor. I couldn’t shake off the way he said nothing—just “leave.” No yelling, no threats, no punishment… just silence. And that scared me more than anything else could.It was so unusual, so unlike him.Enzo wasn’t a calm man. He wasn’t the type to let things slide just like that. That quiet restraint he wore like a tailored suit was a lie. A total facade. Beneath it was fire—danger—violence waiting to happen. So why now? Why the silence? Why wasn’t he saying anything?Was it control? Or was he planning something I couldn’t see coming? Was he planning something even more dangerous than the usual punishment and scolding? What could be going on in his head?I sat at my desk, my fingers trembling slightly as I reached for the computer. I tried to breathe, tried to drown myself in work, to focus on the fashi

But a man like him, a total weakling, was no competition for me.He was a nobody, and the only thing giving him any name was the fact that he worked in my company. I couldn’t be threatened by someone like him.Not now. Not ever.What did Rain say? Jealous?She said I was jealous. She had absolutely no idea who she was speaking to.I don’t feel jealousy. I don’t need to.That man doesn’t threaten me. Not even a bit. He couldn’t hold a candle to me even on his best day. He wasn’t capable of taking what belonged to me. Not even close.Rain was mine.Mine.And yet…She had blushed. She did so when that marketing guy told her he missed her.I could hear it in her voice, even if I couldn’t see it. The subtle quiver. The softness. The hesitation. I knew what that meant. I’d years of my life reading people with my ears, feel

    Chapter Fifty-oneRainThe elevator ride felt longer than usual, the kind of slow that made my nerves twitch. I tapped my fingers against my thigh, impatient, anxious, uneasy,,wondering if I was really going to find something—or if this whole idea was a waste of time. But if I didn’t at least try, the doubt would eat me alive.The moment I stepped out onto the ground floor, I realized I had no idea where the control room was. I wandered past the familiar halls, some security doors, even asked a janitor, but none of them could give me a straight answer, they were all too busy to give me an exact answer. I finally found a guard standing near the back hallway and asked him directly. After a short exchange and a bit of waiting, I was pointed in the right direction.The control room wasn’t what I expected—it was small, cramped, lit by the pale glow of several monitors. Two guards sat behind a desk, watching the screens with dull expressions like this was just another long, uneventful day.

    Chapter FiftyRainI couldn’t understand anything.I just couldn’t get it.I didn’t invite Andrew to the dinner. I never said anything like that to him. I would never do that.Yes, I planned to invite Andrew. I considered telling him about the dinner and bringing him here—but after giving it deeper thought, after remembering everything he said and did to Enzo, I couldn’t bring myself to go through with it.It would have been an insult to Enzo. I knew that. And that was exactly why I didn’t invite Andrew.But then—why was he here? Who told him about this dinner? Who brought him here under the pretense that I invited him?I didn’t do that. I saw the way he insulted Enzo. I saw how badly Enzo had been affected by everything—his health, the doctor’s report, his father’s memorial. Enzo was already in a fragile place. It would’ve been a horrible mistake to bring Andrew here, and I knew that. I knew these things and it was the reason I didn’t tell Andrew about the diner, even after his reque

    Chapter Forty-nineEnzoA joke.A prank.A play on words.That’s what it had to be. There was no way Rain would bring that man into my house. No way she would stoop so fucking low as to let a man like him walk through my doors after everything he did. Hell, she was there—she saw him talk to me like I was crazy, like I was beneath him. She saw the way he treated me like I was nothing.This had to be a joke.A cruel, expensive joke.“What did you just say?” I asked my brother, hoping—praying—he had it wrong. That there was some mistake. I trusted Rain. I knew she wouldn’t do something like this.“I said your wife’s lover is here,” Eduardo said again, that mocking laughter in his voice making my skin crawl with rage and disgust.“No… Rain wouldn’t…”“Good evening, everyone. I hope I’m not late.”That voice.That familiar, arrogant voice cut through the air like a blade and froze every part of me.My blood ran cold.Eduardo was right.

    Chapter Forty-eightRainEnzo leaned in, his chest brushing against my back, one hand gripping my waist, the other running slowly down my spine, making me shiver beneath his touch. His breath was hot against my ear when he spoke, low and rough and everything I’d been dying to hear. Everything I had waited days to hear again.“You feel that?” he whispered, pressing the length of his hardened cock between my wet folds, slow and teasing. “That’s how much I’ve missed you, wifey.”A whimper slipped from my lips, raw and uncontrollable.I tried to respond, but my voice caught in my throat when I felt him shift his hand, parting me, guiding himself slowly, so painfully slow, until I felt him press at my entrance.And then—he slid in.A soft cry tore from my lips, my fingers gripping the edge of the table, my knuckles turning white almost immediately. He filled me completely, inch by inch, like he was taking his time to reclaim every part of me he had missed. My walls stretched around him, de

    Chapter Forty-sevenRainIt had been days, and Enzo still hadn’t stepped out of the inner room. The only time he’d spoken to me was when he asked the driver to take me to the company to get him something. Other than that? Silence. He stayed in there all day, doing nothing that could possibly help his condition. Instead, he was punishing himself—and that was only making things worse.But Enzo didn’t see it that way. He believed all of this was his fault. He thought he could’ve done something to prevent it, to change the outcome. He blamed himself for what happened, for the blindness, for the consequences. But none of this—none—was his fault. I wanted to tell him that, scream it if I had to. But he wouldn’t let me. He wouldn’t even give me the chance to speak.Enzo shut me out because he thought he had to handle it all on his own, and the more he pulled away, the more I feared he’d lose himself to the darkness completely.I took a deep breath, leaning against the wall as the warm shower

I blinked multiple times, thinking maybe I’d heard wrong, maybe I was starting to imagining things. But the look on the doctor’s face said otherwise. It was Final. Certain. There was no room for hope.Enzo would never see again. Never. There was no guarantee.He would never look into my eyes, never see my face when I smiled or cried, never see the world he used to control with the sharpness of a glance. He would never be free from the darkness that had caged him. He would never be able to see the world again.And worst of all—he would never see me.He has never seen me before, and a part of me has held on to that hope that he would when he finally regains his sight, but now?

    Chapter Forty-FiveEnzoMom was always like this.She’d come in pretending she wanted to talk about something important, something reasonable and fragile, but before you knew it, her voice would be rising, throwing wild accusations like daggers across the room. Today was no different. She did today again. She came here talking about family business, about my responsibilities and appearances even though I didn’t need to be remembered, and the next second, she was shouting about Rain having an affair. Throwing Rain’s name around like it was dirt. Like she had been waiting for any excuse to drag her through the mud.I leaned back against my desk, my hands pressed flat against the wood, my jaw locked tight.I knew she didn’t trust Rain. Hell, she didn’t even like her. If I had told her about my marriage beforehand, she would have torn it apart before it even started. She would have poisoned my mind with doubt, with her selfish fears, with her obsession over control. She’d have wanted th

What should I do? Should I just go in there?What if they were arguing and it had escalated into a fight? What if Enzo hurt Andrew?I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know if it was right to just stand there and do nothing. I couldn’t trust that Enzo wouldn’t do anything. He was so upset minutes ago that he would have sacked Andrew if she wasn’t so important to the company. After minutes of waiting, I couldn’t hold myself back any longer.
