LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU'RE MINE; A Don's obsession 38.The truth, or you die
~~Ines~~I tried my best to concentrate on what I was doing. Valya had asked me to dry the dishes and place them in the plate rack.But my mind kept wandering back to Zoya and her minions no matter how hard I tried to focus on the task in front of me.What if Roman knew what they had done to me and had deliberately kept quiet, allowing them to torture me without lifting a finger to stop them? The thought made it difficult to keep my hands steady, and I had to remind myself that I didn't know the truth yet.I wasn't foolish enough to believe Roman liked me, but surely he wouldn't let them hurt me like that, would he? I pushed the thought away before it could dig any deeper, but I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong, especially when I noticed how restless Valya had suddenly become.She kept glancing toward the door whenever someone walked in, her attention snapping away from whatever she was doing as though she were waiting for someone to show up.I wondered what had g
LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU'RE MINE; A Don's obsession 37.Had Roman found out?
~~Ines~~The next morning, I didn't wake up on my own.A bucket of ice-cold water hit my face and chest, making me gasp and jerk upright. I wiped at my eyes with the back of my hand, blinking furiously as I tried to make sense of what was happening. My clothes were sticking to my skin, and the cold had already started working its way into my bones.For one stupid second, I thought I was back in that cellar, with water filling my nose and mouth.My stomach twisted.Then I saw Valya standing over me with an empty bucket in her hand. The morning light coming through the small window fell behind her, making her look even more intimidating.Oh, I hated this house."Get your ass up from there!""And why did you sleep in the storage room?" she demanded, looking around at the boxes and old furniture. "What happened to your bed?"Last night came rushing back to me.Zoya.That crazy bitch had looked ready to kill me yesterday. There was no way I was going to lie in that bed and close my eyes,

~~Ines~~He stood in front of me like he'd stepped straight out of the shadows, fully dressed and wide awake at an hour when most of the household should have been fast asleep.His dark eyes settled on me, sharp and watchful, making me feel as though he'd already figured out that something wasn't right.Could this night get any fucking worse? I screamed inside my head.His gaze traveled slowly over my face before dropping to my damp dress, and I had to fight the urge to look away as his attention stayed on me. “You look like you just walked out of the rain,” he said, his voice low and raspy in the quiet corridor. “Funny thing is, the rain only seems to have touched the top half of your dress.”I opened my mouth to answer, but the words got stuck somewhere in my throat.“What are you doing up so late?” he asked, his eyes returning to my face.My fingers tightened around the side of my dress, bunching the fabric in my fist and forced a glare onto his face.“It's none of your business,

~~Ines~~The guard shifted his attention from Zoya to me, and I swallowed hard, trying to keep my gaze steady even as the edges of my vision began to blur.He crouched in front of me until we were at eye level, his expression so empty that I couldn't tell what was going through his head.“She won't say a damn word,” he murmured.Before I could even process what he meant, he reached out and grabbed my jaw, squeezing so hard that pain shot through my face as he forced me to look directly into his eyes.“Listen to me carefully, little rat,” he warned, his voice quiet but carrying enough menace to make my skin crawl. “You're going to get up, walk out of here, and pretend tonight never fucking happened. If you utter a single word to the Don...” He paused, leaning closer until I could feel his breath against my face, and his voice dropped to a deadly whisper. “I will find you. I don't care where you hide in this estate. I'll drag you out and kill you myself.” His fingers tightened around m

~~Ines~~The air in the room seemed to freeze the moment the door opened, and everyone turned toward it as if their lives depended on who was standing on the other side.For a second, my heart leaped into my throat, and a rush of desperate relief swept through me as I prayed it would be Roman.It had to be him. Please, let it be him, I found myself begging silently, my eyes fixed on the doorway. I could already picture his grand entrance, the way he'd step out of the shadows with that cold, lethal look in his eyes, before turning his attention to Zoya and making her regret every damn thing she'd done to me.For a few precious seconds, I let myself believe it was going to happen, clinging to the hope like a drowning person grabbing at anything within reach.But the figure filling the doorway was too broad, his shoulders slouched in a way Roman's never would, and he carried none of that quiet, terrifying authority that made people think twice before crossing him.My heart sank as I rec
LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU'RE MINE; A Don's obsession 33.Interruption
~~Ines~~Behind her, the two maids gasped in unison when those words left her lips, and for a moment, even they seemed to struggle to believe what they'd just heard.And me? For a second, I thought she was kidding, because surely no one could stand there and announce that they were going to kill someone with such a straight face. I would have called her a good actress if it weren't for the look in her eyes, which was so cold and dead that it wiped every trace of doubt from my mind.That was when the panic really set in, creeping through me as the realization hit that this crazy bitch might actually be serious.If I was going to die, it wasn't going to be at her hands, tied to a fucking chair in some dusty wine cellar like an animal waiting to be slaughtered. If I had to die, I wanted it to be in a more decent way, not at the mercy of a woman who looked like she'd enjoy watching the life drain out of me.“Zoya, wait!” one of the maids stuttered, her voice trembling so badly that she n
