HAZEL

I let out a strangled sigh, the thought of him taking me this way has me biting my lip with unexpected excitement.

“Over my dead body,” I breathe, moving with his hand to feel more of him.

“I prefer your spent one.” Axel bites down on my shoulder so hard that the pain feels like a slice to the skin.

“Ahhhh!” I cry out, but clamp my mouth shut in surprise.

The sound of chatter drifts in the distance, but it isn’t coming from the bathroom door.

"Would you look at that...." Axel taunts as h

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Acting

    HAZEL The room started spinning. One of the men laughed."He was sleeping with every woman at the strip club," he said. "And you really believed..." The rest of his words disappeared beneath the sound of my own heartbeat and the sound of their laughter. I looked at Harris. Waiting and Hoping For him to deny it. For him to say something, Anything. But he didn't."I was only keeping you long enough," Harris said quietly, "because you were useful."The word cut deeper than anything else. Useful."I needed access to the Morozovs"I frowned."What?""That night," I whispered. "The night everything happened..."He smiled faintly."Yes.""The night your little boyfriend broke into our party and ruined everything."My face went cold."That was supposed to be my way in. I was supposed to gain access to the Morozovs, but then he showed up." His jaw tightened. "He destroyed everything, so I had to start over. Find another innocent woman, find another virgin."He laughed."Do you know how hard

    HAZEL I had no idea what was happening."Calm down," one of the men said to Harris. "You were going to use her to get into the Morozovs "But now..." He looked me over. "...she's been Axel Moretti's woman, and from what we've heard, he's still looking for her."He grinned."I bet we can get a lot of money for her if people know she's the one Axel Moretti's been looking for.""He's right," another man agreed."Should we let Morozov know?" Harris asked."Of course," one of them replied. "She's worth a fortune. Do you know how many enemies Axel Moretti has made over the years?"The room filled with quiet laughter."So what do we do now?" someone asked when the voice died down."We need pictures." The other responded. He pointed at me. "Come on. Take her pictures."One of the men pulled out his phone and started taking photographs."Get the blanket off," Harris ordered. Then, after a pause, his voice hardened. "In fact... Take all your clothes off."I clutched the blanket tighter around m

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    There She Is

    HAZEL I was right to be scared. Because the next day, I got up while he was still sleeping. Of course, I hadn't slept all night. I took a quick shower, went downstairs, prepared breakfast, left his food for him, and then locked myself inside the library.He didn't come looking for me, and I managed to avoid him the entire day. We didn't meet for lunch. We didn't meet for dinner, and for the first time in days, I thought maybe he wasn't going to come for me.I was wrong. He did. He knocked on the library door, and I pretended I hadn't heard him. But I never expected what happened next. The knocking suddenly became pounding. Hard and Violent.The door shook beneath every blow while my heart climbed into my throat. Then it went quiet, and I heard his footsteps walking away. For one brief second, I thought he'd given up.Then I heard him come back. This time he was carrying something heavy. The first hit splintered the wood. The second cracked the frame, and the third sent the door crash

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    The Man Lying Beside Me

    HAZEL I walked back to the bedroom. It was no longer the room where Harris had planned a beautiful night for us. It was the room where everything changed.I stood there, unable to move. Harris noticed and walked farther into the room."Hazel," he called softly.I looked at him but didn't make a move."Come inside," he said, opening the door wider.I hesitated for a second before finally stepping in. It felt like I was walking into a place that could hurt me. He went to sit on the bed while I remained standing, looking around the room as though I were seeing it for the very first time. I had only come back here a few times to collect clothes before returning downstairs. Eventually, I stopped coming altogether and simply wore whatever clothes I'd already taken with me."I wanted to tell you something," he said quietly.I looked up at him."I never wanted to hurt you.""I know you say that.""And I mean it," he replied, sitting forward. "I lost control... but I'm not that person."The w

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Let's Go To Bed

    HAZEL Everything got way worse after that talk. Not better. Not fixed. Worse. That night, I decided it was better to stay downstairs again. I didn't want to be near him; I didn't want to be in that bedroom. Not after everything that had happened there.So I took a blanket, found a place on the couch, and tried to convince myself that I could get through another night. I heard Harris moving around the house. The sound of his footsteps, the turning off of lights and the quiet movements of someone who was still awake. Then I heard him go upstairs. And finally... I relaxed. Just a little. I thought I was safe; I thought I could finally sleep, but that didn't happen. Because the moment I closed my eyes, something inside me shifted. Something felt different and Wrong.I opened my eyes, and there he was. Harris was standing over me. Watching me. My entire body went tense."Let's go to bed," he said. His voice was calm, too calm."I don't feel like going to bed," I responded.I immediately

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Take A Look At Me Now

    HAZEL I wasn't the same Hazel who walked into Axel's mansion. I couldn't be. Being in that mansion had changed me.Axel had changed me. What happened there had changed me, and maybe... Maybe it wasn't completely bad.I wasn't as naive as I used to be, and I had seen things, Experienced things. Things that control the world. Things that I never wanted to think about again. But Harris didn't seem to see that. He only saw the pieces of me that didn't fit the image he had created. The memories of the person he wanted me to still be."I spent all this time saving you," he whispered. His voice broke slightly. "And now I feel like I don't even know who I saved."The guilt hit me immediately. Because despite everything... Despite the fear, despite the pain. A part of me still cared about him."I never wanted to hurt you," I said softly.He laughed quietly. A broken sound."But you did."I looked down. "I did," I whispered. The admission surprised him. I looked back at him."But you hurt me

    HAZELI run upstairs into my room after my conversation with Remo and cry. Not quietly. Not politely. A full-blown cry..... I can’t believe how stupid I was. How much of an idiot, a fool, I had been. I actually thought what happened between Axel and me meant something. It should have, shouldn’t it

    HAZELAxel gives me a look.A look that says I’m way beneath him.A look that says I am undeserving of an answer or an explanation.“You’re here, aren’t you?” he says, almost bored. “You’re safe, you’re fed, you have a roof over your head, and that’s all you need to know.”That gets my anger rollin
