Lucy lay on her bed, one hand under her cheek, the other resting over her stomach. The room was quiet except for the soft hum of the ceiling fan. Her eyes stared at the ceiling, but her mind was replaying every second of earlier that evening.

“You won’t be dancing again… at least not for anyone else but me.”

Barry’s words echoed in her ears. Her cheeks warmed at the memory. The way he had pulled her onto his lap. The way he held her. So close. Like he had a right to her.

She didn’t know what any of it meant.

Maybe he was just being possessive because she worked for him. Maybe it didn’t mean anything. But it felt like it meant something.

She turned onto her side and sighed.

Meanwhile, back at the club office, Barry was leaning over his desk. His shirt sleeves were rolled up, and his fingers moved fast across the papers, flipping through reports and inventory sheets from the bar. The club was steady tonight, not too crowded, not too slow. But his mind wasn’t fully in the numbers.

    NEXT DAYThe sun was soft against Lucy’s skin as she walked back into the mansion from the garden, brushing a few petals from her dress. The garden had become her quiet place over the past few days, somewhere she could think without feeling watched or judged. But even the calmness outside couldn’t prepare her for what she saw next.She paused at the entrance of the wide hallway. A group of maids were moving boxes, fancy-looking ones, up the stairs. They looked expensive, like they belonged in a designer store. Lucy's brows pinched together in confusion.“Excuse me,” she said softly, stepping closer to one of the maids carrying a medium-sized box. “Is someone moving in?”The young maid turned to her, giving a small, polite smile. “Yes, Miss Jessica. Master said to prepare her room this morning.”Lucy’s lips parted slightly. She blinked, not knowing what to say for a moment.“Oh… I see. Thank you,” she murmured.The maid nodded and carried on up the stairs, disappearing around the corne

    Lucy sat on the edge of the bed, her legs swinging softly above the ground. The room was quiet, too quiet, and her thoughts were spinning.She had spent most of the day alone, trying to distract herself, but her mind kept drifting back to Barry. His voice. His eyes. The way he held her on his lap last night like she belonged there.She pressed her palm lightly against her chest. It was silly, wasn’t it? Feeling this way about her boss. But the way he looked at her… the way he said she wouldn’t dance for anyone but him…Did it mean something?She sighed and stood up, stretching her arms above her head. She couldn’t sit here any longer. The silence was making her restless.“I’ll just… check if he’s around,” she mumbled to herself, brushing her fingers through her hair.She grabbed a hoodie and slipped out of her room, walking down the hallway toward Barry’s office. Maybe she could talk to him for a little while, just something light. Something normal. She just needed to see his face.Wh

  • Mafia's Captive Desire    Stay Still

    Lucy was just about wrapping up her shift, wiping down the last table, when one of the other girls leaned in toward her."Master wants to see you," she said casually, tossing her hair over her shoulder.Lucy blinked. "Me?"The girl nodded, already walking away.A knot formed in Lucy’s stomach. She hadn’t done anything wrong… had she? Her mind immediately began racing. Had she missed a tray? Dropped something? Looked at someone she shouldn’t have? The night had been a blur, especially after she caught his eyes during her dance. Her chest still tightened when she thought about it.She smoothed down her dress and headed toward the hallway that led to the private offices. When she reached the familiar tall door at the end, she paused and knocked softly.No response.She hesitated for a second, then slowly turned the handle and stepped in.The room was dimly lit, the smell of paper, leather, and faint cologne lingering in the air. Barry sat behind his desk, head bowed slightly as he flippe

    Lucy woke up with a small smile tugging at her lips, the kind she quickly tried to suppress but couldn’t. Last night’s moments, the tension, his hand brushing her hair back, the way he’d whispered that rare, soft thank you, still lingered in her mind like an echo she couldn’t shut off.Her face warmed at the memory. "God, what’s wrong with me?" She thought, pulling the blanket off and sliding out of bed.She washed up quickly, trying to shake it off, but the faint blush stayed on her cheeks as she dressed. By the time she walked downstairs, she had forced her face back to neutral.The mansion was silent. Too silent. No maids around.She glanced around the empty dining space. “Guess he already left,” she muttered under her breath.Fine. She would eat alone.Lucy made herself a simple breakfast, eggs, toast, and tea. She sat at the long dining table, the massive chandelier above her casting its light like she was some guest in a royal palace. But there was no one to talk to, no footstep

    KNOCK. KNOCK.Lucy frowned as she heard the knock echo softly through the quiet hallway. She had just come down from her room, dressed in her loose shorts and an oversized shirt, her feet bare against the cold marble floor. She wasn’t expecting anyone.She tiptoed toward the door, cautious but curious, and pulled it open.Vanessa stood outside, wearing a light green dress that flared at her knees and a small crossbody bag slung over her shoulder. Her blonde hair was curled at the ends, bouncing slightly as she tilted her head and smiled.“Hey,” she said cheerfully.Lucy blinked. “Vanessa?”“Yeah. Master said I could come over,” she replied, stepping forward with ease, like she belonged. “He said I should keep you company today.”Lucy’s brows knitted together. “He did?”“Mhm.” Vanessa smiled again and peeked behind Lucy into the house. “I hope it’s not too sudden?”Lucy stepped aside slowly, letting her in. “No, no. It’s okay. I just didn’t know…”Truth was, she was surprised. But Vane
