Chapter Five:Just Breath To Leave

The next morning I was woken up by Maria.It was sunny as usual and l didn't know how l was feeling. Last night was something else if l may confess. 

Just thinking about it… my cheeks turn red with shame and all sorts of feelings. All the events came back flooding back like a. hurricane.

“You mine now….” Those were his words.

“Little miss……”his voice rambled at the back of my mind. 

Luca Dermaco was usually a poison and every thing he touched seemed to be ‘ruined’ by him. 

I betrayed myself yesternight… l sold my fucking soul to the devil himself on a silver platter. 

What the fucking hell…. 

I felt dirty… cheap and nothing because of last night. But the vibration between my thighs on my honeypot tells another story. I don't want my body to act like this… but it's shameless….. reminancing to that blood suckers touch and words. 

I am supposed to think of revenge…. How to avenge my brother…. I am supposed to unveil what my brother was doing in the dark where no one could see him…. 

“Hmmm……”she sighs deeply. 

She buries her face in her hands….. thinking of what's next. This is her life now and she has to embrace and swallow the bitter pill. 

She just has to breathe to leave. 

“What if he has a weakness that I can use l against him?” she contemplates deeply

One thing about the mafias: they never show their weakness…. if there's one they would eliminate it immediately before the enemy finds it. As a Mafia leader you had to show unwavering authority and no one was to defy you. 

Luca was a good example…. his grip on authorities could be sensed with him saying anything. It's like he had an invisible grip on the helm of every territory he stepped in. 

He was a stone cold human being, with no emotion…. or a “weakness” for that matter. 

He was dangerous

Daring

It's so hard to plan revenge on someone who's always sandwiched 24/7 with bodyguards. 

“Cassandra….”I feel a pat on my shoulder.l look up from my hands and it's Maria. 

“Good morning Maria”l say polity

“I'm good… please go and do your morning routine. The Master is downstairs waiting for you to join him for breakfast.”

l nod my head making my way to the bathroom….. 

“...... and oooh dear be in there Master doesn't like to be kept waiting” she says

Instantly my cheeks flash red… thinking that maybe she knows what happened last night… I hurriedly make my way to the bath. 

Last night after that encounter l took a shower and scrambled myself until my skin got red….. with lines from scratching myself with the bath scrub. 

I was just feeling cheap… although l had liked the feeling. 

Cold water makes contact with my little frame and I freeze for a moment. But this is what l wanted. Something to make my body stiff…. 

When I was done my clothes were already there…. with everything made and in place. 

I changed into the short dress that was on the bed….it shaped my curves nicely, exposing my chest…. l had small round boobs with pointy tits. 

Whoever chose this dress, has a good fashion sense.My eyes fall on the little paper peeping from my armpits. It was the cloth label and price. 

My eyes poop out. 

“What the actual fuck is this….. I ask Maria.”I ask Maria dumbfounded. She falls into a panic mood. 

“What's wrong….”she asks her face full of worry

“$4, 500 for a dress….”I ask still lost

She hits her head dramatically and says let's go before he loses it. 

I think l will have to do a tour in this house… because it's massive…. we use a lift to go to the dining area. 

When we reached our destination l stood there in the middle of the room… prey to his eyes. 

Time stood still for a moment. 

His eyes were like fire burning through my soul… 

Consuming me. I could not move from there…. the dress l was wearing wasn't making it any less good. 

“You're finally here….” he roared across the room. 

“...... but I will forgive you this time…. since… since you had a tiring night.”he smirked, licking his bottom lip sinfully and a wave of embarrassment flashed across my whole body. 

I just stood rooted there,playing with my fingers and my head hung low. With no words to give him. 

“Come and sit your pretty little ass down….. or you want me to do that for….” swiftly I sat across him in the middle of the table. 

He claps his hand and a man comes in holding some food. He dished an English breakfast for me. 

My stomach grumbles there and there. It looked scrumptious and I just realized how hungry l was. 

I hear a chuckle from him. l don't dare raise my head, I just concentrate on my food. 

“Today you are going to go through some rules and regulations guide book…..”he paused mid-sentence and l could feel his eyes gawking at me…

“Read them, understand them, master them, know them ... .are we clear?” he asked in

a serious tone. 

I just nodded my head in agreement, looking down without uttering a single word. l mean what was l supposed to say…. nothing but just listen and act accordingly. 

“Look at me when I am talking to you ‘moya’...” he snapped and I slowly looked at him. 

“Yess… yes I will read them”I said

After that we continued to eat in silence. You could cut the cold silence with a hot knife. I was almost done and full already. I don't get why they would cook all these dishes… as if we were going to have a banquet.

Can't he leave already. I know it's his house but I think it's best if he leaves now l can't think straight and strategically when he's around. 

The door opens and someone comes in… I can't tell who but it should be a male figure because of the intoxicating male scent. 

“Dobroe utro moi droug….” “Good morning my friend” The man said cheerfully…. 

So he has friends… that's a first. 

“Oooh my my and what do we have here…. a new….” 

“Shut the hell up… motherfucker.” Luca interjects

“Come in and turn to look at me. 

His eyes were bright like the sun…. and white as milk… He had a manly feature, he was tall with even toned skin and brown hair. 

“.... priviert krasivaya” “hello beautiful” he beamed greeting me. 

“Good morning Sir” I replied quietly

“Miguel what do want in my fucken house this early morning…..I thought we agreed that l will meet you at the warehouse” Luca asked 

Okay so that's his name.He seems nice and not stone cold like his evil bastard friend. 

“No need to be mean man….you know l only pop up here when there are pressing and urgent matters.” he says shifting his tone to seriousness. 

“.... and that is” Luca groans in his chair

“It's the Germans again…..” Alessandro says with a stone cold face. 

There was a bit of silence as Luca was trying to process the news.

Luca waves his hand and Maria walks forward immediately. 

“... take Cassandra here and give her that book…. you know how things should go right.”he instructs her

“Yes Master.” she answers with her head bowed down. 

“And you little miss, go through everything.. will discuss more when I come back”he says that in a deep commanding voice towards me. 

“It's not like l have a choice… I will do so because I just want to breathe.”I shot back not considering that we have an audience. 

“Feisty enough huh…this will make your life interesting Luca nc nc” Alessandro roars with laughter. 

I stand up confidently… pulling my short little dress in a provoking way….then said

“Can l leave now Master” l say dramatically in a lazy,seducing tone. 

Luca smirked.. maybe in disbelief of my attitude. 

Hell yeah I had to show him that l am also made of steel….I agreed to leave under his oppression because l have no choice. They took everything from me. 

I hold the edges of the table.. in a posture that pops my curves out. He keeps on looking at me, showing bewilderment on his face. 

I picked an apple… bit it slowly and put it down looking at him without breaking eye contact. 

“Weeeh….goddamn woman.” Alessandro whistled. 

“Maria take her away….. I will deal with her accordingly when I am back.” Luca says his face is emotionless. 

We went out of the dining area, while I modeled my way out. I let out a long deep breath when we were out of their sight. That was so close and now thinking about it, I'm shocked if it was me. 

So confident

So daring

I will do anything for me to leave. I will do anything to avenge Satan's first born child. Without or without anyone's help Luca will pay. 

But let me act low and seductive for now. 

He may be stone cold… but he's a man with testosterone running in his adrenaline glands he will fall for my trap. 

But I can trust my own body, not to betray me.
