Gabriella's eyes widened as she too noticed the blood for the first time, her face turning even paler. "I... I didn't realize," she stammered, looking down at her leg, where a small but deep cut was bleeding steadily from the side.

"Oh, dear, let's take care of that immediately," Maria said with urgency, her tone calm but quick. She helped Gabriella to sit down gently on the edge of the bathtub, then hurried to the medicine cabinet to grab the first aid kit.

Maria returned swiftly and knelt beside Gabriella, opening the kit. She found antiseptic wipes and a bandage, then gently cleaned the wound, despite Gabriella's flinches. "I'm sorry if it hurts, Miss, but we need to clean it properly to avoid infection," Maria explained as she worked.

"A glass is inside your feet, I will need to pull it out," Maria said noticing a small shard embedded in the wound. Gabriella's face tensed up with worry, but she nodded, bracing hersel

    "Saviano's estate?" Alejandro repeated. "Send me the location, cover the area, and keep me updated on your findings," he said before disconnecting the call.He checked his phone to see the location and he wasn't pleased when a picture of a familiar house appeared on the screen."Get to work boys," he ordered before dashing out to head back to Enzo and report his new findings.He hurried down the hallway to Enzo's study, as he got to the door, he met Maria stepping out of the study. A deep frown etched on her face."Maria," he called out."Ale," Maria muttered. "H-He has fired me," she cried out."He fired you?" Alejandro raised an eyebrow at Maria, he knew Enzo would punish her for not watching over Gabriella, but he didn't expect it to get to this extent."I don't know what to do Ale, he won't even let me explain that the man had a gun a

    ~ THE NEXT DAY ~Alejandro walked down the hallway leading to the living room, he had gone to the study to speak to Enzo immediately but was informed he was in the living room. With each step that he took, he found his heart racing in his chest.Gabriella was gone, and this time there was no single trace of her.When Maria had called him last night, he had gathered some men to find her, instead of informing Enzo immediately, and that was his first mistake because those men had called him this morning that Gabriella was nowhere to be found.Alejandro wondered how Enzo was going to react to this, especially when preparation for the hunt games was already taking place. Alejandro ran his hand through his hair, thinking of how to inform Enzo.Meanwhile, Enzo was currently in the living room discussing with Caterina. "Go on, they said it was urgent," Enzo said. He didn't want to see Ca

    "It's a bit complicated, Gabriella, my family is connected to the mafia but not in the way that you think," Sebastian explained."What do you think I think about this?""My family has been on the side helping them launder their money, but we're not part of their criminal activities," Sebastian added quickly, his eyes pleading for understanding. "We've been trying to get out of it for years, but it's not easy. They have a hold on us, and we can't just walk away."Gabriella's mind raced with this new information. She couldn't believe that Sebastian's family was involved with the mafia. And Luca, the man who had tried to assault her, was Sebastian's brother. The connection was too close for comfort."Me and Luca haven't been in communication for some while now, in fact, he has not been in communication with any of our family members. I would say he took the money laundering quite seriously, he got greed

    Gabriella was taken aback by the kiss, her eyes widened for a second but her initial shock soon faded as she found herself leaning into the warmth of Sebastian's lips on her. She closed her eyes gradually trying to rid her mind of the thoughts swirling in her mind, there was an undeniable connection between them.Yet, as she felt Sebastian's hand gliding down her back and pulling her into, a flicker of guilt tinged her relief—the image of Enzo, kissing her passionately, doing things to her pussy and fucking her so hard that she passed out, crept into her thoughts.The images were so vivid that Sebastian's kiss did nothing to rid her of it, instead it only worsened it and made her more terrified.Breathing deeply, she placed her hand on Sebastian's chest, shoving him off slightly

    "I mean, it's just a suggestion Gabriella. I am not forcing you into anything that you don't want," Sebastian said, he tucked a strand of hair in Gabriella's face behind her ear. "I just want to make sure you are safe and free from Enzo Saviano.""And how does a marriage to you make me free from him?" Gabriella asked with a puzzled look.She had felt overwhelmed and terrified when Enzo had suggested she play along and got married to him, even when Maria had tried to convince her to play along she still had plans to escape in the back of her head."The mafia's have rules Gabriella, they are not fond of stealing other people's women. Whether she was bought or it was a legal marriage. If you're married to me, Enzo won't be able to touch you," Sebastian explained, his eyes locked on

    The ride to Sebastian's house was long, it made Gabriella wonder if truly they were going to his house or somewhere else. She found herself looking out the window most of the ride trying until the car finally drove into an estate.Two security men at the main gate bowed their heads slightly to Sebastian before opening the gate and shutting it.As the car drove in, Gabriella found herself in awe of the building. It was almost similar to Saviano's estate, but the house had a modern twist to it.The house was large, with clean, sleek lines and large windows that allowed plenty of natural light to pour in.The facade was made of a mixture of glass and steel, giving it a futuristic look that stood out against the traditional mansions she was used to seeing.The grounds were immaculately kept, with rows of manicured bushes and scattered, elegant trees that added a touch of green to the otherwise stark modernity.As the car came to a stop, Gabriella could see the front door—a massive piece o
