View MoreCHAPTER 10TAYLORAfter managing to find a bathroom, I rinsed my mouth and face there. Then I took some minutes to collect myself together before I made my way back to the room where Michael and Fernandez were and upon opening the door, I noticed that both Mr Thomas and Fernandez weren't there anymore.I froze by the doorway as many thoughts began to run through my head. I was scared that they may have done something horrible to him and I slowly turned my head toward Michael only to see him furiously typing away on his phone with a scowl etched deeply onto his face.Then he returned the phone into his pocket, pinched the bridge of his nose like he was stressed about something and as if he knew I was watching, he turned toward my direction too and a chill ran through my body when our eyes met. “Do you feel better now, Taylor?” He asked after eyeing me from head to toe and I nodded without uttering a response because I still didn't want to talk to him and he too, looked away once I con
CHAPTER 9TAYLORThe hitting didn't stop. Instead, I was forced to sit side by side with Michael and watch Fernandez hit Mr Thomas on and on until he was nothing but a weak and bloodied mess on the floor.I suddenly felt the urge to vomit while I helplessly watched. Then Fernandez finally stopped hitting him and turned to Michael while he straightened his jacket with a look of satisfaction on his face. But I was quick to push the urge to vomit back and when I looked at Michael, I realized he had been watching me closely.“I told you that you'd have to get used to this life now. So don't look so pale, Taylor. This is just the beginning” he said softly and I blinked while staring at him in disbelief.“You could have taken him to the police. Why do you have to take it this far?” I asked while my body shook with vigor because to say I was traumatized would be an understatement.Mr Thomas's cries of plea and the sound of his bones breaking as he got beaten kept ringing in my head and Mich
CHAPTER 8TAYLORWe walked out of the church hand in hand, but immediately we were a distance away from the church building, Michael abruptly let go of my hand and the gesture felt so cold and dismissive.Fernandez rushed up to him at that moment and whispered something in his ear and immediately he took a step back, Michael pulled him aside to talk to him so I was left to stand alone and it was awkward.I remained in the same spot while I watched him converse with his bodyguard and the longer I watched him, the more it felt like the kiss we shared was nothing but a dream. I didn't want to believe that I just felt his lips upon mine just seconds ago.So I made myself think… that it wasn't real. It was just an act because Michael Rover didn't find me to be attractive one bit. He had never even looked my way for longer than a few minutes and I couldn't count on one hand how many times I'd seen him in person since he bought me. So the kiss was nothing to him… and I had to think nothing o
CHAPTER 7TAYLORThe drive to the venue was a very quiet and stifling one for me because we were both seated in the same car. So I rolled the window down a bit to feel the air until the car came to a halt once we arrived at the church where we were to be wedded.Then Fernandez came forward to get the door for me and another one of Michael's guards did the same for him from the other side of the car.Once we were both out, I looked toward Michael to see he was watching me too. Then he held his hand out for me to take it and raising my dress, I walked toward him and placed my small hand in his much larger hand.With that, we took slow and precise steps toward the church and my heart started to beat so fast against my ribs that I thought I wouldn't hear anything around me from the loud crashing sound in my head but then Michael spoke to me and I looked at him.“After we take our vows…” he stopped and visibly swallowed, his Adam apple dancing up and down his throat. Then he looked down at
CHAPTER 6TAYLOR Smoothening my hands over my wedding dress while I looked in the mirror, I couldn't bring myself to accept the fact that I was getting married. Against my will, I was marrying the man who bought me from an auction and I couldn't even run away because he promised to find me and hurt me if I did.Just weeks ago, I was living a very mundane life. All I did was go to work, make coffee for strangers, and then return home to eat a poorly made dinner before I headed to bed. Now, I was in a white dress and about to marry a man that I knew nothing about just because he said we were going to, and at that moment, I remembered Malcolm. He was never a good boyfriend to me either. I was just desperate for love because I missed my parents and grandpa. So, accepting him into my life seemed like the best at the moment.That was until I found out about his addiction. Then he promised he was going to stop, and I stupidly believed him because I thought someone like him could actually
CHAPTER 5 TAYLOR While I sank deep into my thoughts in bewilderment, Mr Rover was busy looking me over from head to toe and with a sigh of disapproval, he stood up from his chair and waved his forefinger at me to stand up too. I quickly did as he wanted and when he held my wrist without warning, I felt my body freeze because I never saw it coming. Mr Rover was holding me! His hand was on my wrist! And I was trying to get used to it. “Let's get you into something better before you meet my father” he said and with that, he pulled me along with him, not bothering to let me finish my breakfast. Fernandez led the way and opened the doors for us until we got inside the car; I got into the passenger seat while Mr Rover occupied the driver's seat and a deafening and awkward silence filled the car as he drove off until we arrived at a beauty shop. The place screamed of luxury and sophistication when we walked in and I looked around in awe while we waited for the manager. Then I heard the
CHAPTER 4TAYLOR “Your name is Taylor Anya Fitzroy and you're an orphan. You lost your parents in an accident at fifteen and your grandpa died after you graduated from high school.You're twenty two years old, you lived in an apartment which was close to where you formerly worked as a barista at a Cafe and your boyfriend… Well, now your ex-boyfriend is Malcolm Doe.” Mr Rover listed every single information about myself while he sat before me in the mansion's living room but all I could think about was the amount of blood I just witnessed out there when he shot those bodyguards in their knees and hands.“I'm sorry. I… I can't get the blood out of my head. I've n… never seen s… so much blood before. I'm really sorry” I stammered while apologizing profusely and he leaned toward me from where he sat to have a closer look at me.“As long as you're mine, you'll have to get used to that. Understood?” he told me and I nodded in fear because I couldn't bring myself to say another word.“Fern
CHAPTER 3TAYLOR He was looking at me. His eyes were blank and icily condescending as he stared at me from where he stood but I could still strangely feel a weird warmth creeping from my stomach up to my chest.He was handsome. So good looking that I momentarily forgot that all in one night, I'd been betrayed by my boyfriend and was sold to him, a mafia lord who was said to be ruthless. I had no idea what mafia lords did exactly since I'd never come across one before but judging from the gun and silencer he held, it was obvious that he was indeed dangerous. His gaze finally shifted from mine as he turned to look at the guards and he waved his hand up for them to raise their heads which they did.My eyes rounded when he began to fix the silencer on the gun and I watched the guards give each other questioning looks.“Who hurt her?” His voice, still deep, cold and spine chilling like from the auction, asked the guards while he gestured toward me and I was confused at first.But then I
CHAPTER 2 TAYLOR I gasped in shock when a bucket of water was poured on my bare skin and I opened my eyes to see I was surrounded by four middle aged women I'd never met in my life. I was naked and they were all washing me up and I gasped again as I registered what was going on. I was naked! With four unrecognizable women! “Calm down, doll. We're the nicest among everyone working for madam Horton so you're in safe hands with us, alright? We're just going to clean you up and dress you up to look good for Mr Rover” the first woman in a flower patterned apron said and I frowned. “Is this is a fucking joke or do you actually mean it when you say you're the nicest? You lots kidnapped me and sold me off like it's normal and you're telling me you're the nicest? That has to be the biggest fucking joke of the year. I'm a hostage!” I screamed while my body vibrated with maximum rage. Then I heard the cocking of a gun immediately and I froze with my breath held in fear when it was pressed
CHAPTER 1TAYLORI sneezed first when my consciousness returned, and then I groaned in pain as I felt a sharp ache in the back of my head. Immediately, the dryness in my throat completely woke me up, and all I could think about was getting myself a glass of water, but I couldn't move when I tried to.I'd never felt so painfully heavy in my life. My body felt like lead, and no matter how many times I tried to get up from my knees, I couldn't. It was like I'd been drugged to stay put, and I panicked internally. Realizing my hands were bound together with chains, I tried to cry out for help, but there was a piece of clothing in my mouth. Then I attempted to open my eyes, but they were blindfolded, and my heart sank upon the discovery that I'd been held hostage.My breaths suddenly became shallow. Fear seeped into my veins and filled my head with horrific images as each second passed, and tears stung my eyes the longer I struggled with the clattering chains that held my hands in bondage...
