HAZEL

I was frozen for a moment, staring at him… nervous, afraid, cold.

Before I could even gather myself, he broke eye contact and said, “Great, you’re here.”

His voice was cold. There was no sympathy in it, no remorse. He didn’t feel bad for whatever happened. And it was as he walked toward a chair in the centre of the room that I realised there was someone else in the room. Not just someone else....someone tied to a chair in the middle of it.

My eyes drifted toward the person in the chair,

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    A Part Of This

    HAZEL The words hit harder than I expected, but I knew they were real. Harris had already told me himself.I knew this day was coming, but a foolish part of me had still held on to the man I knew. The Harris I knew. The one who loved me, the one who wanted to protect me, the one who came looking for me and saved me.... Not this.The woman probably got a kick out of seeing me hurt because she continued."He negotiated for you for a week, and he made sure you were ready for tonight.... Just in time."My breathing became uneven."He took care of you and bought you these clothes. He even knew just the right size."I remembered everything then. I remembered the warm baths, the way he carefully cleaned my wounds, the way he made sure I had eaten breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Then the dresses, the makeup and shoes.He knew that damaged merchandise sold for less, so he wanted to make sure I was ready for today. He wanted to pretty me up for the market.Tears immediately blurred my vision, a

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Appetisers

    HAZEL I stood there stunned, staring at the door. Then the door opened, and Harris stepped inside. He stopped the moment he saw me, and A slow smile spread across his face."There she is," he murmured. "I knew they'd make you look expensive."His eyes travelled over me like I was something on display. Something that belonged to him, something waiting to be bought.For the first time, as I stood there and saw him watching me, walking around me, looking me up and down while he nodded his head, I realised why he had wanted me dressed up. I realised why these last few days he'd been nice to me, bringing me food, tending to my wounds..... It had all been because of today."Come on. Let's go," he said as he opened the door and walked out.I followed and walked behind him, wondering where the hell he was taking me. But as we got to the top of the stairs, the murmurs started. A lot of murmurs. Not really noises, more like murmurs.Then I saw the people. Lots of men in jackets, most of them b

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Stay Strong

    HAZEL I didn't have the strength to question him. Harris prepared the bath for me himself. Warm water, bubbles, and Everything. Then he looked at me.I knew from his expression that I had no choice but to do what he wanted. So I went into the bathroom and bathed.When I returned to the room, he was still there waiting. I froze in front of the bathroom door. Then he pulled out a medical kit."You have bruises that need tending to." He said, almost conversationally."I'm fine." The words came out immediately.I didn't want him touching me. That was the last thing I wanted. But he insisted."It's my responsibility."Something in his expression made me stop arguing. So I sat there, and I let him clean the injuries. My knees, thighs, arms, neck. Everywhere that needed attention.When he finished, he packed everything away."I'm going to get your food."He cleaned up, closed the door behind him, and walked away. A few minutes later, he returned with soup. I stared at it, and my hands shook

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    A Bubble Bath

    HAZEL I stood there, staring at the door Harris had just walked through. And then... I started laughing. I laughed because what else was there to do?The man I thought was my saviour... The man I thought loved me... Had turned out to be the devil. A complete psychopath. All this time, I had been dreaming about escaping Axel's mansion, dreaming about running back to Harris.God...I remembered Axel. I remembered what he told me. He always said he was protecting me, and I never listened. But now I understood. That night Axel took me... He had saved me, and I had no fucking idea.Every single time I mentioned Harris... Every time I begged to go back to him... Every time I dreamed about escaping... I had just been an idiot—a complete fool.I didn't sleep that night. Instead, I lay there remembering my life at Axel's mansion. Nearly a year. Nearly a whole year with him. And then I compared it to this place. To Harris. What had it been? Barely a month? Not even that, and yet Harris had alr

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    The First Time I Saw You

    HAZEL Silence settled over the room againHarris watched me cry without a shred of pity. If anything, everything he'd confessed seemed to make him feel bigger... more powerful... like he'd finally won.One of the men cleared his throat."I think that's enough for today. We should go. We need to be in town by morning to get to work, so we can't stay here too late."Harris nodded."Cool. I'll call you so you can tell me what Morozov thinks.""Don't take too long," one of them said with a grin. "Finish up here quick. Let's do the job, and then we can get paid.""I know," Harris replied."And don't damage the merchandise," the man added with a laugh.I felt sick. I had been reduced to merchandise. That was all I was now. Not Hazel, not a woman. Not even a person. Just something to be sold.The men filed out of the room one after another. The last man pulled the door shut behind him before disappearing into the hallway.Silence settled between us. For a few long seconds, Harris and I simp

  • 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

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    I Got You

    AXELIt’s way past four, and I should be passed out.I should be buried in a woman’s warmth, letting skin and noise drown out thought, but instead I’m here. Leaning against the doorframe. A bottle heavy in my hand. Whiskey burns a path down my throat that does nothing to quiet the ache in my chest.

    HAZEL“Maybe you didn’t,” Axel replied coolly, “but you live under my roof. You follow my rules.”“And whose decision was that?” I shot back. “Did I want to live here? Did I want to follow your rules?”I stepped forward without realising it.“I haven’t followed a single one of your rules,” I said.
