Caterina.

Yess.

This was what I deserved.

The sun here had a molten gold complexion that melted across the horizon, spilling into the restless waves. The beach was almost empty save for a few families that were scattered around, the children shrieking as they built castles.

Wonderful.

I tilted my head back, closing my eyes against the sunlight, and letting it paint warm streaks across my face. I inhaled deeply, then let out an exhale like I could empty out the weight of all the months behind me.

Maybe I could.

Maybe I could breathe without it hurting. I could look forward without trembling.

Luca certainly thought so.

The asshole was sprawled across a towel with what could only be described as an infuriating ease. His hair had grown a little longer since he decided to stop shaving it two months ago for some reason. He had that half-smile on his face again, the one that always made me feel like a million bucks.

Like I was a woman who was winning and losing at the same time.

    Caterina.The first three days after I opened my eyes blurred together in a haze of painkillers, the smell of bleach, and that soft hum that came from all the surrounding machines.When I finally became away of my surroundings, like truly aware, it wasn't relief I felt. Relief that I was no longer held captive by that horrible Alessandro. It was crushing dread.Luca hadn't woken up.So I did what I could. I stayed in the hospital, refusing to even try to leave even when Raphael told me that a proper bed was waiting for me back at my penthouse."You need to rest at home, dear." One of the nurses had clucked her tongue at me when I refused to leave for the umpteenth time.I still refused.Even Maria scolded me daily, but I would not budge. Why didn't anyone get it... that my place was here. Right beside the man who almost died just because he wanted to save me.On my first day of being fully aware, I'd stared at Luca for hours. His face was so pale against the white sheets, a cruel con

    Luca.That particular door was the fourth one I kicked in. The other three held nobody.The hinges of this door screamed as the wood splintered, the force so much that it had this loud, booming sound like that of thunder. If my gun hadn't been raised up in my hand, and the desire to be steady wasn't there, I probably would have fallen or something.That was how bad it was.But I did not expect the sight that was in front of me. It burned through every vein in my body, seeing her in that state, and knowing something must have happened.Maybe even more.Caterina had been placed sprawled on the bed, her shirt fully undone, with her entire breasts out. Her skin was all flushed unnaturally, and her eyes fluttered a bit as she tried and failed to stare at me. She was so out of it that she couldn't even form words. She was trying to move. I could see that, but there was this sort of faint tremor in her fingers.It was almost like her body wasn't listening.Now I had seen what drugs did to pe

    Caterina.Fucking hell!My cheek still burned like it did hours ago when the punch landed. The ache was one that radiated through my head in waves, every throb a reminder of my failure.I had panicked.Alessandro started talking about all the things he wanted to do to me, and with me, and I had just... panicked. I couldn't think straight or wait anymore, so I did the best thing anyone else in my position would have done.I ran.I tried to scream the moment I escaped from Alessandro’s arms, since he was too surprised to even hold me so tight. I tried to do something other than stay there and let the man swallow me whole until there was nothing left in me to continue.And I had failed.The boy with the dyed blue hair seemed to be my new handler, since he was the one who brought me back to the room they had assigned for me, and was the one doing this now. He didn't spare me a glance as he shoved me forward again. And again. And fucking again. His grip on my arm when he needed to hold me

    Luca.My father would say investigating women was bad for business, because most of them knew nothing about what the fuck was happening because they preferred to just wear their jewellery and expensive clothes, while the other half knew too much and would spill too fast.Where did Alexandra fall?The room was currently suffocating with silence. Not the kind of silence that brought some sort of comfort to someone because they knew they were finally breaking down and would say everything I needed, but the kind that pressed on my skin, made it crawl and itch because of how uncomfortable it was.I shut the door behind me with a sharp, final slam that vibrated across the walls. I did that deliberately. Everything with me was deliberate at this point.The men had Alexandra bound to a chair at the center of the room, binding her wrists in steel cuffs that were practically impossible to get out of, while they shackled her ankles to the legs of the chair. She looked almost regal despite the o

    LucaOh I was grateful I didn't even say anything to her when Alexandra entered alone.The moment Mr De Luca saw I was the one standing there and staring back at him, his chair screeched against the café floor, his face immediately turning pale.Then the bastard bolted.For one split second I considered going for Alexandra, but my gut made the decision for me. The lady wasn't running at the moment. Infact, she was staring back at me with a very cool, and collected expression, then switching to a glare like I was now a fly buzzing in her ear.I could wait.The man fleeing like his life depended on it who must have seen Caterina and knew where she was exactly? That was the man I needed to follow.That was my lead.I pushed myself out of my seat, coffee already forgotten, letting the chair clatter against the tiled floor as I shoved through the startled men and women who were either walking into the café or standing up to walk around."Move out of the way!"The glass door banged open und
