Taming The Mafia's Lord Heart

( Mariana) I actually thought I could make it. Before he got here I already had the knots on my hands loose. The guards were all focused on him and the brunette, that I was able to get my legs free too. Once he called the other guard aside I knew it was the best time to run, since everyone's attention was on them. I took off the gag and raced for the door and before I could get out he shot me. That fucking bastard shot me!.Bam!I screamed and fell on the floor rolling in so much pain. It hurt so much. Before I could even gather myself, the guard came and picked me up. He wanted to drag me towards his boss but I tried fighting, not that it made a difference. "Let me go!" I yelled as he pinned me down and when I didn't shut up he slapped me. The pain I felt from the gunshot was already making me dizzy. I've never been shot before and the pain was unbearable. The man tried to hit me again but his boss signaled for him to stop. He squatted down and held my chin, making me face him. I d

(Mariana)The door closed with a resounding bang as I entered my room. "Hey, Janet," I greeted my roommate. "Oh you're here" she said with a smile"Yeah" I replied slowly wondering why she was smiling at me like that.She gasped and walked towards me touching my face.” He hurt your pretty face." She said with a pout. "What an asshole.""It's not that bad" I replied with a smile and sat on my bed. The past few months I've been here, Me and Janet grew closer. I mean the first few weeks, alI I ever received in response to anything I said was a grunt and her attention was always on her books. But with time we both came to understand each other and I realized Janet was just like me kidnapped and looking for a way out even though she had been here longer than me. I misjudged Janet when we first met. She was like the sunshine in this forsaken place, hiding under the cloak of darkness. "Of course it's not that bad." She sat down beside me, "After Mr Lorenzo saved you." She said and nudged m

(Lorenzo) I felt a warm hand touch my face and I opened my eyes, it was Marianas'. She had the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen. They were light brown with some specks of green that were almost not noticeable. She tried to remove her hands but I stopped her and pulled her closer towards me. She looked at me, her eyes searching mine. I knew I shouldn't pursue this any further, I knew I had to stop leading her on but I couldn't seem to stop myself. Mariana made me feel some way I could not seem to put a pin on, an emotion that felt really strange to me. But I couldn't get distracted. I had to end this here and now. I took in a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression last night,It was just a one-night thing, nothing more". I could see the shock and sadness in her face, I felt a pang of guilt in my chest. I slowly let go of her hand and get up from the bed. I needed to get dressed and leave this room, I couldn't bear to even look at her right now, and n

(Lorenzo) I sat in my office handling some paperworks, signing off documents that I had been putting off for a while now. I picked up my cup of coffee and sipped it slowly reading through the company's financial record. It was a monthly ritual, just to make sure no one was stealing from me. It had been two weeks since Mariana. I had been with countless women after that but I still couldn't get her out of my system. Giovanni walked in with a serious look on his face. "Boss, our recent gun shipment got sabotaged." "What?" I yelled, enraged. "Who was stupid enough to do something like that?" "I've already put my men on it, and we managed to catch one of the men who was responsible." Giovanni said. "He's a member of the Blood Crust gang." "Blood Crust?" I replied, confused. The Blood Crust gang was one of the biggest gangs in South LA. Why would they do something so reckless? Were they trying to trigger a war, or were they just trying to piss me off? "Have you gotten anything out

Cont'd (Marianna) Samantha laughed "Thank you very much, I cooked it myself" She takes another spoonful of soup and holds it up to my mouth. " Here, have some more."I opened my mouth and let her feed me again. "Thank you Samantha" I said, after swallowing the second spoon. " I really mean it, you've done a lot for me today."" Oh it's okay. You were going through a lot, you needed support even if it was just a little," She shrugged. "When it was me, no one cared. Everyone was going through one thing or another so no one had time for anyone but themselves. I had to deal with my shit all alone." "I'm sorry to hear that" I say to her." It's fine," she says, shaking off the thought."Enough of the sad stories, let's eat more.""Let's?" I ask, raising an eyebrow in question."Yeah, did you really think I'd make something this delicious and not eat out of it?" She said with a smirk and brought out another spoon from the tray which caused me to giggle.We continued like that, eating
