The fucker didn't pick his call.

I watched it ring until it went to voicemail. I pressed my hands together, attempting to keep my cool as my thoughts roamed.

I shook my head. One fact remains the same: I had to treat Luca Manno as urgent. If not, he'd spiral out of control, and chopping him off would become impossible.

I leaned into my chair, closing my eyes. All I saw was trouble, and then I rose, sliding into my car within a few minutes. As I drove on the road, I got certain information that made the whole situation interesting. I knew I was going to look at that later, but for now, I was heading home.

As I got into my penthouse, my maid, Marianna, was standing next to the door. She had worked with my family for years and had eventually assigned her to work for me when I moved into my own apartment. Her services were well needed; I couldn't even do anything domestically for the life of me. Also, I didn't trust other people enough to let them into my space. All the other workers I'v

    “I'm willing to exchange with Clarissa.” Amelia exchange, and a weight was lifted off my shoulders.“But wait!” She holds up a finger, while I regarded her with pursed lips, my breath hitching. I silently prayed that our plan wouldn't fall through. “I'll only exchange with her if hers is better than mine.” She winked and continued adding the powder to her cheeks.My eyes darted towards Clarissa and she inched over to Amelia with the outfit. “It's nice,” she said raising the gown upwards, “but it's not my voice.”Amelia's fingers traced around the sequin outfit and her eyes widened in admiration. “It's so beautiful, why didn't I pick this when the box arrived?” She asked her friend.The girl who had spoken earlier that I assumed to be Amelia's friend snorted. “Because you like skimpy things.”“Duhh.” Amelia huffed. “Now I'm willing to try something new.” She replied, snatching the gown from Clarissa and giving her outfit which when Clarissa wore it was her perfect size.“Aren't you go

    “True true.” They muttered after Lisa said a few words.I was here waiting for my dress ro So arrive Gives me Gives me my dress Feliza would offer something For me to wear.Grateful that I wasn't the center of attention anymore, I walked over to that young girl who squatted on the floor scanning on what to wear.“What are you doing?” I asked the moment I was standing at her back and she jerked backwards.Noticing it was me, she let out a sigh of relief. “I'm just tired. Looking for what to wear is always a hassle especially trying to pick an outfit madam livia will like is one of the hardest things for me to do to ve you honest.* She complainef and held my forehead.“Not to worry I'll help up with that.” I flashed a smile and her eyes widened. Why was she Suprise that I wanted to help her. “So let's see what we have here.” She squatted and began to search through the Clothes.“But you don't know madam livia tatste, you're new here.” She commented.I regarded her for a second.”you didn

    All through the time I was in the bathroom, I just kept thinking about how the activities for the night will turn out to be and it scared me that I had no one to run to help. Their compliance annoyed me, the fact that they had all accepted their fate. Like who the fuck wanted to live here forever. Perhaps they had started out like me defiant but they were forced to succumb to the circumstances surrounding them. Maybe that was it but it made no fucking sense.My fist hit the wall, the impact shooting pain through my arms and a laughter erupted my throat. I didn't know I was going to fill the pain seeing how angry I was.Suddenly a knock came on the door, pulling out of my thoughts.“Can I come in?” A voice asked, it wss calm and soft. Not like the loud audacious voice I had been hearing. “I want to have my bath.” The voice was almost like a plea and it came scared me. Perhaps they were playing pranks on me.I stuttered. “I'll be done soon.” I simply said, grabbing my towel.“You have

    Her hard hands forced my face to stare at her. “So you're the girl.” She looked at me under her lashes as she held my face in scrutiny.I didn't know what she meant by that so I didn't respond to her.“He didn't lie, you're beautiful.” She commented and removed her hands from my chin. She pulled away and gestured to me to rise up from my seat.I obeyed almost immediately. She then gestured to me to turn around, of which I obeyed almost immediately. When I turn around to look at her, I saw the look of satisfaction on her face.“Good good.” She nodded. “You'll be a great fit for him tonight.” She announced and all the other girls gasped.“Silence.” She shouted and the room fell into silence as she had instructed.“There's no need for muttering is there?” She asked and they all shook their heads. “If anyone has something to say they should signify.”I looked around, no one was raising their hands to say something. But I had so many questions bubbling within me so I raised up my hands at

    At the sound of her voice, the room stilled like the announcement was more of an order.“Really?” A voice broke the silence. “I thought she'd never wake up.” My hands peered out to see the person that had made such statement. Her eyes were small, almost like she couldn't see and her lips were wide almost like they were inappropriate for lips.“Amelia, you should stop that.” The blonde girl warned, cutting through the laughter that enused and the room stilled once more.“You look like you don't know what you are here for.” The blondie walked near me and stretched her bands for a friendly shake. “Anyways, I am Lisa.” She introduced, her face straight as ever, no hint of smile spreading in her face.“Bella,” I brought out my hand, reciprocating her gesture and her facial expression.“You'd have fun here only if you can play by the rules.” She informed and murmurs of approval filled the room.“What rules?” I asked, unsure of this new environment and everything concerning it.“I don't know

    The next morning, just about four am according to my calculations, a huge man walked into the room with Robin by his side.“Get up.” Robin instructed tapping my bare laps, as the man took off the handcuffs. A man yanked off the eye cover on my eyes and I was met with utter darkness. I rubbed my eyes groggily and a sense of survival kicked in. With all the strength in me, I kicked someone in his groin and a groan filled the air.“You didn't tell ne she was feisty, Robin.” The man complained. “She just fucking kicked my dick!’“Turn on the lights.” Robin demanded. “I was thinking she would still be asleep and we could whisk her away without stress but she's proving to be stubborn. We will deal with her adequately.” He said with pure venom in his voice and bright light flooded the room.My eyes met with the hefty man who held his groin in his hands and his face contorted into a grimace. The moment his eyes met mine, he gave me a withering look like he could rip me apart with his bare han

    He rose to his feet, his eyes darkening with rage. “If you have happen to see tomorrow night in this place just know I'm dead.”I didn't know whether that was a threat but I wasn't scared of him in the slightest and he could go to hell for all he wanted. If he said he was going to send me elsewhere and damn, I was ready to be there already. And whatever he planned on doing wasn't my business. I has already accepted my fate that my husband wasn't going to come as soon as I expected.“Okay.” I simply replied nonchallnatly. “Your problem is that you think your weak husband is going to come for you but baby, i hate to break it to you. He's incapable of saving you at this point.”“He'll come for me, he has always.” I said, my voice thick with emotions.He snapped his fingers. “That's all I'm saying now. So why isn't he here? Aren't you connecting the dots? This situation is an exception. The earlier you remember this, the fucking better for you my love.” Robin stated, a mischievous glint i

    “so good.” He nodded “What do you say?” He asked and my chest started to beat quickly.“I'll be back soon.” He said into the call when his phone rang. “Just need her to answer so we know if we're supposed to ship her with the rest of the girls.”Ship her with the rest of the girls? What does that even mean? If she said no to him does it mean that she wouldn't be allowed to have a good life anymore? It meant I would be sold into prostitution and men would game turns having sex with me. That fate sas cruel as fuck and no one deserved that. I shook my head as I winced internally just thinking about the hardship that came with my decision. I just wished stefano would come as soon as possible but if wishes were horses beggars would ride on it.“Over to you.” Robin stretched out his Two palms. He pulled his left hand forward, “on this palms is choosing to be with me and enjoying every protection and power I can give while still married to stefano.* He pulled his right band forward. “On thi

    So what do you say?” Robin asked again with an eager look on his face. I knew he desperately wanted to hear my answer.I maintained a straight face as though nobody had spoken to me.“Oh well, I'm guessing we shall see in a few minutes from now.” He announced after glancing at his wristwatch. I can't afford to waste anymore time here, I believe that was the words that was left unsaid with how impatient he looked.I nodded and followed him with my eyes as he walked out the door with a confident gait. I wanted to tell him to wait but the words remained stuck in my throat. I knew my answer already, I shook my head as I thought of the possibility too, there was no way I could betray my husband because of a situation like this. Stefano was probably looking for him and was thinking of me as much as I thought of him. He was going to come for me and I knew it. I had faith in him and I would wait on him instead of moving with Robin. He was deceptive as hell and there was no way I was going to
