After Nico left, sitting there didn’t feel good anymore. I hadn’t gotten anything from him except Amanda’s brother’s name, and sitting here only reminded me of Amanda, of the moments we would steal just to talk and when she would bring me something outside to eat.

And now she was in trouble, and I couldn’t even help her.

By now, I was used to feeling helpless when it came to myself. But being helpless when it came to someone else… that was new. And it didn’t sit right with me at all. I

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    This Was Good

    HAZEL After Nico left, sitting there didn’t feel good anymore. I hadn’t gotten anything from him except Amanda’s brother’s name, and sitting here only reminded me of Amanda, of the moments we would steal just to talk and when she would bring me something outside to eat. And now she was in trouble, and I couldn’t even help her.By now, I was used to feeling helpless when it came to myself. But being helpless when it came to someone else… that was new. And it didn’t sit right with me at all. I stood up and decided to go back inside. Maybe I would finally find the courage to find Axel and ask him about Amanda.A few minutes later, I was already walking through the hallways of the mansion, no direction in mind, just moving, just thinking, hoping to find someone, anyone who could give me something..... And then I bumped into him.The one person I really did not want to meet right now. Not like this. Not when I wasn’t ready. I collided into him, and his hands came up instantly, gripping m

    HAZELHe shook his head, still smiling a little as he looked at me.“No, I’m sorry,” he said. “It’s just… Are you taking a basket of sweets to one of the maids? That’s new.”I frowned slightly. “What’s that supposed to mean?”“Nothing,” he said quickly, lifting his hands in surrender. “It’s just....people don’t usually do that around here. And you have never seemed to care about anyone before.”“Well, maybe we should all care about each other,” I muttered.He watched me for a second longer, like he was trying to figure something out.“You barely know her,” he pointed out.“I don’t have to know her that well to care if she’s sick,” I replied, a little sharper than I intended.His eyes narrowed slightly. And there it was.... Suspicion.I forced myself to relax, to soften just a little.“She’s been nice to me,” I added, quieter this time. “More than most people in this house.”That seemed to land better. Niko exhaled lightly and started walking again, and I followed beside him, matching

    HAZELI straightened slowly.“Okay,” I murmured, nodding my head. “Nico.”If I couldn’t go to Axel, then I’d go to the next closest person who might be helpful.But this time, I had to be careful. I couldn’t go with accusations, bashing or wandering around blindly. I had to be smart about this...for Amanda and for myself.I stepped out of the house and went downstairs in search of Nico. I didn’t even know if he was still here or not I walked down the hallway, my eyes scanning and listening for any sign of movement. And then I heard Nico’s voice and stopped just before turning the corner. I took a deep breath before I peeked and saw him talking on the phone.He was laughing lightly, like the same Nico that I found in this house, the one who wasn’t mad, the one who wasn’t angry, the one who just accepted where he was and just took everything as it came.I turned away again, took a deep breath, as I wondered how I could start this conversation. How should I approach him? Would he get su

    HAZELI rolled my eyes.“Or the eye roll,” she pointed out dryly.“I need to talk to you,” I said, more seriously this time.That got her attention. Her expression shifted just slightly, her posture straightening.“I don’t think you’ve ever come looking for me like this,” she said slowly. “Is it serious?”“Calm down,” I said quickly. “It’s nothing to panic about.”She didn’t look convinced.“Have you seen Amanda?” I asked next.Something passed over Angela’s face, but I couldn’t quite place it. A flicker, gone too fast for me to catch.She frowned slightly. “Why are you asking for her? Is that why you’ve been looking for me?”“No,” I said quickly. “I just needed her to come clean up there. She kind of… broke the dishes.”Her eyes narrowed a fraction.“So you’re telling on her?”“No,” I shot back. “You asked me why I was looking for her. What did you want me to say?”She kept watching me, like she was trying to peel something off me, something I wasn’t saying.“Well,” she said finally,

    HAZEL I hated that. Hated that it had anything to do with me.“Maybe I should be the one apologising,” I added instead, quieter now.He shook his head. “Not really,” he said. “You’re just like Alice in Wonderland.”I frowned slightly.“What?”“You like wandering into places you’re not supposed to be,” he continued. “Luca told me what happened. Said it’s one of your greatest flaws… running into places you shouldn’t be.”At the mention of Luca, I straightened immediately, my stomach tightening. So he knew about the drug house on the island.... Of course he did.Embarrassment crept in before I could stop it.“Yeah,” I muttered. “I guess that’s one of my talents. I probably would’ve made a great detective.”That made him smile an actual, real smile this time.“Yeah,” he said. “And in this world, you probably would’ve died sooner rather than later. You’re too stubborn for your own good.”I thought about that for a second. About men like him and what I know so far about this world.And I f

    HAZELI moved toward the sound, my steps quieter now, more deliberate. His voice grew clearer as I approached, leading me down the hallway toward his office, the door partially open.I stopped just before it, my body going still as I prepared myself to step in. Then Axel’s voice came again, calm, measured, and Dangerous in a way that made something in my chest tighten.“I don’t like surprises,” he said.There was a pause before another voice responded, low, unfamiliar. I couldn’t catch the words. Then Axel again.“Make sure it stays that way.”A chill ran down my spine at the finality in his tone. It wasn’t a suggestion. It wasn’t even a warning. It was a command. I leaned slightly closer to the door, my pulse quickening, my thoughts racing.Should I walk in? And if I did… what exactly was I going to say?Even if he was the one hurting Amanda, then what? What power did I have here? What could I possibly do to him?The answer came just as quickly as the question. Nothing. I had absolut

    AXELFuck.Fucking fuck.There I go, messing up my good, carefully curated plan.I had already made a decision. I was going to stay away from Hazel as far as I could. That was the plan. I was going to keep her at a distance. And after a while, everything was going to go back to normal. The weirdnes

    HAZELNatasha was also a dead end. She didn’t like me, and she wasn’t subtle about it. That meant my only option was one of the maids, but not just any maid. One who had access. One who moved quietly between rooms, between people. Someone who heard things. Someone who saw things.I needed an ally.

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
