Marissa Oh god, that was so embarrassing! Not only did I make out with my kidnapper but my so-called bodyguard was standing in the same room! My skin is flaming with heat and my body is trembling with… With what? It can’t be arousal, right? I take a deep breath to calm down my treacherous body. I must have been sitting in front of the door for at least twenty minutes before I forced myself to get up. Walking to the walk-in-closet I try to figure out what to wear. THe dress I picked for breakfast is not something I want to wear to school. But then again, none of these clothes are like those I’m used to. Everything is from some expensive brand and all of them look classy and stylish. Even something ordinary as the tight jeans look expensive. With a sigh I decided to wear the expensive looking tight jeans and a beautiful, dark blue knitted sweater. He didn’t buy me any sneakers and the beaten ones I had from home have disappeared so I have to wear a pair of dark gray boots instead. Loo

Marissa Popsie’s are swarming with hungry college students but James and I manage to get a table close to the window. The table is small with only two chairs, but we manage to find an extra chair for Josie. James forces me to sit at the edge, between him and Josie and I agree. I don’t have to make it more uncomfortable for them than lunching together already is. Luca stands right behind James with his arms crossed over his chest, almost breathing down his neck and I can see the uncomfort in James' posture. “What do you want?” I ask James as I hang my coat on the back of my chair. James shifts in his seat and clears his throat. His eyes dart up to the man behind him ever so often. “Take whatever vegan they have.” He says quickly. I nod, give Luca a look and make my way to the front. Luca follows behind me. “Do you really have to scare my friends?” I ask him with irritation coating my voice once we stand in line. “Boss won't be happy with other men touching you.” Is his clipped ans

Antonio Never have I wished for the day to end as much as I have today. Not even on the day of my fathers burial, may he rest in peace, did I wish for the day to come to a close as much as today. And it is only lunchtime. The sun is shining through the window and the prismas that hang there. They give off beautiful rainbow colored patterns on the floor and tables. I look at a small girl sitting with her parents playing with a small car in the colorful light. It looks so simple and serene and the sight calms me. Soon. I tell myself. Soon it will be me and Marissa eating together with our child. I drum my fingers on the top of the table in the expensive restaurant downtown waiting for Vincenzo. He is the VP of two of my casinos, at least for the time being. I sigh and look at the clock on my arm. He’s late. I absolutely abhor tardiness. I never wait for others and he knows this. Perhaps I should demote him? It would show him what happens when he makes me wait. But he is excellent in

Marissa When the last lecture is over I stay back a few minutes to clear some questions about an upcoming paper we have. There are quite a few more students that stay to ask their own questions and soon the time is twenty minutes past five. Some of the questions I had have been answered since other students had the same questions. But when Luca grabs my elbow and gives it a tug, I turn and give him a glare. “Mr. Falaguerra is waiting, and he hates to wait.” He leans down to murmur near my ear and tugs my elbow a bit harder. “He will have to wait longer then.” I growl at him and I twist out of his grip to squeeze up front to the professor. With a bit of force and a few elbows I stand in front of the professor to ask the questions I still haven’t gotten an answer to. The professor answers them and I write them down. When I’m done I turn to look towards Luca. He is pacing and gesturing with his arms in frustration as he speaks into the phone by his ear. His gaze comes up to meet mine

Marissa The ride back to the mansion is silent, as usual. Antonio whisk out his laptop and works on that and I stare out the window. From time to time he gently brushes his hand on my knee. The first time I pulled away but then he took hold of me instead, so I don’t pull away again. When we arrive home he extends his hand to help me out of the car and then keeps it as he leads me into the house. I am silent and stiff as I follow him up the stairs. He leads me to his bedroom and I stop in my tracks. He turns towards me with a soft and reassuring smile on his lips. A smile I can’t trust no matter how soft he makes it. “There is no need to be afraid. Be a brave woman and take the punishment that I will give you.” He says and reaches out a hand to cup my cheek. I bite my lip and my eyes, that are filled with tears of fear, dart around the hallway. He cups both my cheeks and forces me to meet his gaze. “I will not harm you and I’m not gonna fuck you. Not tonight.” I gasp and try to jerk

Marissa When I exit the bathroom Antonio is sitting on the bed. He has changed his button-up to a tight, white t-shirt that fits snugly on his lean but muscular body. When he hears me enter he turns to me with a smile on his lips. He is so handsome with his perfect face and intense dark eyes. And the white color of the t-shirt complements his dark colors and tan skin. “Come here, my love.” He says and pats the bed beside him. I come over and when I am close enough he reaches out for my hand and I automatically place my hand in his. He tugs me until I stand in front of him. “I have to pull down your jeans.” He says and reaches for the button. My first reaction is to flinch away, but a stern glance from Antonio has me step up to him again. He unbuttons and pulls down my jeans to the middle of my thighs. I’m wearing a pair of blue silk and lace panties and he lets his eyes roam over them and my bare thighs. I close my eyes and pray that my panties don't show how aroused I got when h

Marissa In the next couple of weeks I fell into some kind of routine. Every morning I eat breakfast with Antonio, Luca, Stefano, Frederico and Samuel. I learn that Rico, Sam and Stefano are Antonio's closest guards. I also learn that there is always a team of four or five guards that follow along with me and Luca. They tend to keep out of sight mostly from me but I spot them at times when we walk between buildings or when we leave the premises of the campus. Antonio is often busy but tries to make a statement of my importance by sitting down to dinner with me most evenings. On the weekend, the breakfast is still served at seven and Antonio works even on those days. I usually go down to eat and then I sleep for another hour or two. Then I study or meet Josie or James. The good thing that came with my predicament is that Josie and James seem to have left their fight behind. I spoke some more to Josie and James and they have promised to not dig deeper into my situation. James also had

Marissa “I was thinking that I could lend a hand in choosing your outfit for the afternoon.” He says with a light smile on his lips while his eyes take in my disheveled state. I only stare at him in answer. “May I come in?” He raises one eyebrow in question and I step to the side to allow him in. He walks over to the walk-in-closet immediately and I follow behind. I stand in the door as he looks through my dresses. “Do you need a shower?” “Yeah. Maybe. Are you going to assist with that as well?” I say in a snarky voice with my arms crossed over my chest. His gaze snaps to me at the speed of light. “Do not offer unless you are ready to follow through.” He says in a low husk tone. His dark eyes roam over my body and stop at my lips. A shiver goes through me and by the slight change in his posture I know that he saw it. He looks like a predator ready to pounce and my core clenches in anticipation. But before I accidentally act on my body's response and before he has a chance to say or
