She wanted to get away from the dimly lit room, but the doors were locked, and there was no sign of a window on the rough wall. The air in her lungs was only sustained by the air conditioner in the room, which only had a bed and a few rags worn as clothes.
She was only twelve, without knowledge of how she got there or what will happen next. The dirty-looking girl slumped down to the ground and buried her face in her palm, sobbing softly. Soon a heavy footstep echoed outside the door, followed by a killing silence. She raised her head and stared at the wooden door, filled with hope and anticipation. To her relief, the door burst open, and a man walked in. Her heart warmed up at the sight of a human being but when she peered closely at his face, the warmth disappeared and was replaced with fear. There was a mask over his face, a mask that resurrected memories of what took place before she slumped down into unconsciousness. She didn’t know who the man was or what his face looked like but she was certain that he was no savior. “Finally awake, little angel?” his hoarse voice filled the room, forcing her to cringe back in fear. “Please, don’t hurt me, please,” she pleaded, clasping her hands together as tears burned her eyes. He took a step closer, and she took a step back; they continued with that movement until her back hit the wall, putting an end to the hide-and-seek game. “Come on, honey. I won’t hurt you,” he muttered when he stood face to face with her. But the little girl knew it was all a lie. He wasn’t a human, he wasn’t an angel either. The man leaned closer and ran his cold hand over her chubby pale face, sending shivers down her spine. “But I will show you what it means to be a woman.” His chilly whisper echoed in her ear, making her heart shrink. “No!” she screamed out and made to whisk away, but the man gripped her wrist, slammed her back to the wall, and pinned her hands above her head. “No,” she whimpered, hoping for a miracle. A grip at her well-worn dress left her standing stark naked before him. He smirked and pinched her yet-to-be-bloomed buds. She gasped out as pain washed through her body. Her eyes dripped with tears, and her lips muttered words of mercy as he exploited her young, unripe body. “You will grow to be an extremely beautiful woman, little angel. You don’t have to worry, I will watch you grow into that.” Immediately, those words left his lips; he plunged her down to the bed, tore off her panties, and caused a horrified, painful scream to erupt from the little girl. ~~~~ Selena sprang up from bed, covered in sweat and cum. She gasped out and rubbed her forehead before narrowing her eyes around the dark room. A hiss escaped from her lips when she noticed the man lying next to her on the bed. She reached into her drawer and pulled out her revolver, then pinned the nozzle on the back of the man. The cold metal against his skin caused him to steer. Without thinking, he knew what that was and he knew who would dare to point a gun at him. “I didn’t mean to fall asleep,” he muttered in a sleepy tone and knocked the gun away before getting up from the bed. His large dick dangled in between his legs as he pulled on his pants and slung his dark shirt over his body before picking up his pack of cigarettes and a lighter. “You will always be the only woman to satisfy me, Selena,” he grinned, getting a glare from her. “Get out if you don’t want to lose your balls,” Selena growled in a voice that wiped off the smile on his face. He snickered and lit a cigarette before trudging towards the door. “Have you forgotten, Lorenzo?” Selena spoke up, making him crane his neck. “How many boys do you need?” he asked. Selena tilted her head, piercing him with her dark cold eyes. “How many hours did we fuck?” She returned the question. Lorenzo turned up his lips in disgust as anger darted across his dark orbs. “That wasn’t the deal!” he snapped, cautiously watching his tone. “Are you in or out?” Selena muttered in a cold unbothered voice. “But—” “Are you in or out?” she cut him off, her gaze unwavering. Lorenzo sighed in defeat and huffed. “I will send the boys over to your base,” he replied and walked out of the room. Selena breathed in and got out of bed; she lit a cigarette and stared at her nude body in the full-length mirror, circling her swollen buds with her fingers. She took a long drag at the cigarette and threw the rest of it into the trashcan before sauntering across the room to the bathroom, her bare ass quivered violently with each step she took. She dropped into the bathtub and sighed as the cold water covered her body, washing off the dirt on her body. She wasn’t just the most feared female Mafia, she was the faceless queen of the underworld. She was the only woman who made lords fall at her feet, with or without her enchanting face. Everyone knew her but not her origin. Even heirs of Mafia groups and families couldn’t beat the Mafia Queen who had no trace of a Mafia family line. She was just a Mafia, a Mafia who started her world all alone. The door creaked open and her most trusted employee walked in. Gina wasn’t just the head of the maids in her house; she was like a mother to Selena, the only one who accepted her without a doubt or question. “Master Lorenzo Almitta just left, he seemed to be in a fit of rage,” she muttered before picking up the body scrub. A dark smile dangled on Selena’s face when she heard Gina’s words. “He wouldn’t dare disobey me, he has only an hour to avoid the consequences,” Selena muttered and moaned out as Gina scrubbed her back. “I doubt he will,” Gina replied, chuckling lightly. “Will you be going to the college today? The semester began yesterday,” Gina asked, and Selena groaned, snapping her eyes open. “I have lectures to handle today. Teaching sucks,” she snickered and Gina smiled. “I hope you find a reason to keep going. Besides, the children seem to like you a lot.” “You mean the boys?” Selena groused, narrowing her eyes in annoyance. To the world, Selena Santa Cruz was just a college professor. Everyone outside the underworld knew Selena to be a grumpy yet intelligent professor. She was good at what she did and had received several awards to her name and career. Having a high IQ was one thing, capturing the hearts of grown men and young boys was another. Her body figure was so tempting that she received envy from female colleagues and shameless admiration from male colleagues. Teaching was the façade she created, and that façade had remained the perfect camouflage for the several years she’d been in the underworld. The telephone buzzed and Gina stopped scrubbing Selena’s body. She stood up and walked out of the bathroom. After answering the phone, she returned with a smile of satisfaction on her face. “Master Lorenzo sent eight boys to the base.” Selena smirked and took a drag of the cigarette in her hand, puffing out smoke that floated around her. “I think I’m in the mood to go to the college now,” she said in a sensual voice, grinning widely amidst the dark toxic smoke that surrounded her.She spun around, shock scribbled across her face. "What did you say?" She asked, disbelief laced in her voice. Tyrone began to ascend the stairs till he got to where she stood. He stared confidently into her dark eyes without flinching. "Let me… into the underworld. I want to be the only one you can trust and fight with," he muttered in a voice filled with determination.Gina gasped from where she stood, her eyes popping out of their socket.The last thing she wanted was to watch Tyrone join the mafia and ruin his life the way Selena had ruined hers.A dark smile sneaked into Selena's face and she extended her hand to his face, caressing his cheeks."You want to fight with me?" She whispered.Tyrone gulped hard and clenched his fist at the chills the feeling of her hand on his skin gave him."For you. I want to fight for you," he replied.Selena's sinister smile widened and she leaned closer, smashing her lips on his."You will lay down your life for me?" She whispered, hitting he
They sat on the table in silence, buried in the memories that they had once eluded. "So… what are you up to?" He asked, causing Selena to look up, her eyes filled with fury. "What the twin blade is up to," she muttered, her voice hoarse and filled with so much hatred. He sighed and leaned into the chair, twirling the glass in his hand. "This will do you no good," he muttered. Selena raised her brows and scoffed, her lips twitched up in disgust."I am not a coward like you, Aaron Rivera. I will exact revenge on everyone who killed my family, understood?" She growled, slamming her fist on the table. The table shook under her fist and Aaron's throat knotted. She leaned back and tilted her head to the side, a sinister glee in her eyes. "Now that you've gotten what you want, it's time we part ways," she said. Aaron felt his heart sink into the pit of his belly when she said those words. Meeting her was a new beginning for him, an era he had always looked forward to.After a moment
The car stopped in front of the restaurant and Selena rolled down the window, poking her head out. “Is this the place?" Selena asked, taking a long drag at the cigarette. "Yes, ma'am,” the chauffeur replied and Selena hummed, twitching her lips into a smirk. She dropped the half burnt cigar in a small platter, pulled the door open, and stepped out of the car. She forced a smile into her face and walked into the restaurant. Her brows raised when she saw no one in the always bustling restaurant except a man who seemed to be in his late forties, sitting alone in the middle of the large restaurant. He looked up immediately she entered and smiled before getting up from the seat. “Miss Selena Santa Cruz?" He asked, his brows raised in question. "And you are?” Selena asked as she walked gracefully towards him. "Aaron Rivera," he muttered as he waved his hand towards the empty seat across the table. “Join me, please," he muttered, waiting for Selena to walk to where he was standing.
He looked up, his eyes dimming in shock. “Pawn?" He scoffed, his jaw slacked. Selena grabbed his collar and forced him to look deep into her blazing, dark, devilish eyes. “Listen to me, I want you to pack your bags. You're leaving this country tonight," Selena snarled, and Tyrone's eyes widened. “What?" He gasped out and scoffed. The door burst open and Selena roughly pushed him back and began to descend the stairs. Gina paused and glanced at Selena's retreating figure, her hands clenched the grocery bags she held. From the expression on Tyrone's face, she could tell that Selena must have acted bitchy again towards him. Selena stopped walking and craned her neck backward, her eyes scanning Gina's pale face. She felt no remorse for her past action but for the sake of Cruella, she thought about making peace with her. “I would like a bubble bath," she muttered, trying so hard to sound calm and less demanding. Gina smiled brightly and nodded eagerly before rushing into
Selena sprang up, her eyes as wide as saucers, as she glared from Tyrone to Cruella. She felt like she had been trapped and there was nothing she could do. Tyrone had been caught, and she knew what awaited him: Cruella was going to kill him. There was no doubt about it, it was either death or nothing. As if she read her mind, Cruella glared at Selena, reached into her bag, and pulled out a gun, pointing it at Tyrone. Tyrone backed away in shock and surprise, wondering what a woman at that advanced age was still doing with a rifle. “Who are you?” He stuttered out, unaware of the kind of power she possessed and the control she had over Selena's life. Cruella turned and looked at Selena with questioning eyes. “Who is the bastard?” She snapped in a husky voice. Tyrone scoffed at the remark and parted his lips to respond, but Selena sent a glare that shut him up. She turned and forced a smile into her face to pacify Cruella. “He is just some boy that we hired,” Selena replied an
Selena felt her jaws drop at the request. She couldn't understand why Cruella was bent on going to her house. “Why don't you go another day, Mother? You should take a rest today, you just arrived,” Selena said but Cruella's cold eyes pointed out to her that she wasn't going to listen to any of her words. “I want to see Gina and it must be today!” Cruella snapped and Selena felt her throat knot. "I can invite her over to your place tomorrow,” Selena said, her heart thumping loudly in her chest. Cruella smirked and took a few steps towards Selena, forcing her to back away. “Tell me, honey, is there something you are keeping from me? I am your mother, aren't I? You promised to tell me everything,” Cruella said, her voice low and yet demanding. “I am hiding nothing, Mother,” Selena managed to blurt out. Cruella stepped back and tilted her head, running her eyes suspiciously over her body. “Okay then, let's go if you are hiding nothing,” Cruella responded, her eyes fill
