Sold to the Mafia Lord

CHAPTER TWO Pain erupted from all over my body. My fingers shook as I gently probed the wound on my cheek, wincing at the searing pain that shot through me. I could feel the blood flowing out of it and it made me cry harder, on top of that, my side throbbed with a dull ache, and I feared they may have broken some ribs. They left me alone probably realizing if they continued hitting me, I could die. Moments passed before the door groaned open again, flooding the room with harsh, blinding light as more men entered. Their faces held no emotion, their eyes cold."Get up! all of you!" one of them barked, cocking his gun, eliciting screams from us.I cautiously rose to my feet, limping with each step, the chains on our feet clinking with every movement. The room felt even smaller as we were led toward the door like a group of helpless animals. We came to a stop in the middle of an open floor, in a single line like we had been trained to do any time we moved out together. I was still in pai

CHAPTER FOUR It has been a week since I began living and working in the mansion and I couldn’t help but notice the men in black with different sizes of guns strapped to their bodies, patrolling the outskirts of the mansion. At first I felt strange about having a bunch of armed men around me but I soon got used to them, even though I made conscious effort to avoid them. During my short time here, I'd grown close to the rest of the domestic staff, enjoying the normal human interactions I'd been denied for so long. The mansion buzzed with an strange energy that morning. I tried to ask Maria about it, but she brushed me off, telling me to focus on my work and when I tried to ask Alicia, she sneered at me in response. My curiosity peaked even more after that. "What's going on, Gigi? Everybody seems so busy today" I ask as we folded the clean laundry together. "You don't know?" She must have noticed from my expression that I was clueless, “Honestly Lena, I’m starting to think you real

CHAPTER SIX Though Gigi tried calming me down I was still shaking. The Don Luciano I just had an encounter with a few minutes ago didn't seem like someone whose words are to be taken lightly. My fingers were fidgeting due to the fear I felt inside me. I felt like crying and yelling, I felt like running away from the world and everything it comes along with. I've Indeed had lots of bad memories until now and even now I know it's never getting better. I tried as much as I could to calm myself and continue with my chores. Slacking off isn't a choice I have the right to make. I'm like a slave, brought in to work all my life and get nothing out of it. My life has been condemned to pain, labor, and anguish. "I am Don Luciano Vitello," he declared with authority, his eyes locked onto mine. "And I demand absolute obedience from those who work for me. I should punish you, Elena," I recalled the exact words of Don Luciano and this instilled in me so much fear, that I began to have a panic attac

CHAPTER EIGHTDON LUCIANOI went to a business meeting for the expansion of my telecommunication company. I arrived earlier at the conference room so I waited for another 15 minutes before other lazy executives began to walk in. After 5 minutes they were all settled in and the meeting began. It lasted for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. I discussed the terms for the expansion and got them to sign the documents for this expansion. On my way out of the conference room, a lady walked past me. She was about 5'4 same as Elena she had the same body structure. I was so surprised and happy seeing her here so I walked faster to go touch her but then remembered that she could only work at his mansion because she was a maid bought to serve. This made him groan and moved his mood from excited to angry. Why Is she in my mind so much that I imagine others who are the same height as her to be her? What has this little witch done to me to make me like this? Come to think of it, I haven't seen he

CHAPTER TEN ELENA Why is my heart beating crazy? I asked myself. It can't be because of Don Luciano, never. I shouldn't feel this way. It's not right.He is not for me, He is dangerous for you Elena, now wake up from this box of emotions. I spoke to myself and put my emotions back in check. I looked at him eyeball to eyeball, do you need anything, Don? You touched me. He glared at me because of my question. This made me quickly step back follow the already-made line of kitchen assistants and go back into the kitchen. We were given the second batch of meals to present to them so we followed the same suit in a straight line and stood by the men seated around the table but this time I was sharp enough to stand beside Franco instead of Don. I smiled at Franco and exchanged stares of greeting. Franco is one person who has been kind to me from the first time I arrived here and he tried to save me from Don. I would have accepted my feelings if I felt it for Franco, I thought to myself. I dro
