ADELINA'S POV

I always knew Mikhail was arrogant. He just insulted the boss whose name turned out to be Mr Winters. It was the first time hearing that surname, well I wasn't associated with the business world

The silence was loud, a part of me was glad Mr Winters didn't get the contract. "Please can you think over? You can't just decide. We have been in the industry for decades." One of the managers intervened. Mr Winters wasn't looking great.

This was a major deal, his company just signed a deal with an automobile company that needed the steel for production. From what I heard Mikhail had monopolized the raw materials. If they didn't get it from him they would have to spend a fortune getting it from the black market.

Cutting their profits low and almost running into losses. Mikhail wasn't bothered by their predicament or the fact this deal would have brought him billions. He always did what he wanted, which gave him his title as a tyrant of the business world

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   34 - One Nightmare is finally over

    ADELINA'S POV I never really believed in miracles until last night. Maybe God or an angel heard my silent prayers and decided to have some mercy on me after seeing how much I had suffered. The light chirping sounds of birds could be heard from outside. There seemed to be a nest on a tree branch next to the room window I slept in. A mummy bird with a bunch of annoying baby birds that won't stop chirping. I wanted to sleep in longer but the chirping didn't let me. The sun rays slanting through the gaps of the curtains fell on my eyes as the curtains flapped, sending in the fresh breeze. The air smelled like moist grass and flowers. I was starting to see why Petra loved it here so much. My eyes fluttered open, I laid face up on the bed with my hand shielding the sun rays just to enjoy the morning without a care in the world. It felt thoroughly peaceful. I missed this feeling of being able to appreciate little things like this. The door bangs; someone is knocking

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   33 - Escape

    ADELINA'S POV The alarm kept ringing, mixed with the heavy gunshots. Without a doubt, there was a gunfight going on, and both sides seemed to have a lot of weapons. Chaos was unleashed, and fear was thick in the air that had a strong stench of blood with the dramatic effects of the people screaming their hearts out as they tried to find a way out. Petra and I were unceremoniously drenched from top to bottom in water, the floor was wet. "What is going on out there?" I asked out loud when both Petra and I were as clueless as a door numb. My heart was hammering with fear and a rush of adrenaline. "There is no time for questions. We need to get to safety," she grabbed my wrist, pulling me out of the restroom. Her grip was strong like steel I could not break it. When did she get this strong? I wondered, watching her back as we managed to run down the wet hallway. We weren't the only ones running. It was absolutely chaos; I stared at Petra back; she was taller than me,

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   32 - Meeting Petra

    ADELINA'S POV The barring songs from the concert reverberated through the walls of the building. It was a crazy Friday night for some more crazier than normal. A sense of shame washed over me, I instinctively wanted to run away. More people could not see me like this. "I, I.." my brain stuttered, the words were not coming through. Maybe it would be better if I had just used the restroom attached to the escort dressing room. A sharp hiss snuck in through my lips, I could not do this. "Adel, what's going on?" Petra asked again this time her voice was more firm. I shook my head, ready to run away; Petra was always pretty athletic. She beat me to it, knowing my intentions. Her hands slammed the door short, and with a few fast steps, she was by my side, preventing me from leaving. "Adel, I am not letting you off until you tell me what the hell is going on in your life. The semester started on Monday and there was no sign or word from you. I have been worried sick bec

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   30 - Arrogant CEO

    ADELINA'S POV My throat went dry once our gaze met. I didn't know why but a strong sense of shame washed over me. Why did he have to see me in this state? A sad smile crossed my lips and I forced myself to avert my gaze. There was this cold thick air around him. Jessica's words are crossing my mind about how he belonged to a different world, a fallen heiress could not be in. Why did it hurt thinking about it? He meant nothing and he was just someone I had crossed part with. Regardless there was no way anything could work out between us. He was one of the richest men in the world and I was a fucking escort and sex slave. My existence must disgust him. My eyes stung, a slight tear running down, but I quickly wiped it off. Why did I always cry about the smallest things? The boss's hands finally left me. Still, my skin was crawling in disgust. "Mr Romanov, glad you finally arrived. I feared you weren't coming." He chimed, giving his hand to Mikhail for a handshake. I

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   29 - Having Fun

    MIKHAIL'S POV My head was resting against the headrest with my eyes closed, trying to relax them for a while. It has been chaotic these last few days, it was expected. Being in my position was never something I expected to be easy. "We will be landing soon," I heard Casper inform me, mind-linked, making my eyes slowly flutter open. Great just when I thought I could rest a bit. Sensing I was up, he approached me with a table, which he passed on to me to go through the open tab. "You have an appointment as soon as we touch. My current guess is that they should be waiting for you." He explained; my eyes were on the screen, scrolling slowly, trying to absorb whatever I could. It was a big manufacturing company one that have been in the steel industry for generations. The deal was beneficial but I wasn't the type to readily accept someone's offer when I was currently monopolizing a majority of mines, the natural resources they wanted. I didn't spend my time obtaining all t

    ADELINA'S POV Becky and the girls were not lying about making my life hell. Maybe bullying me made them feel better and less insignificant. It was always the pettiest lies. It felt like Chelsea knew they were lying but went along with them. She probably felt I needed more discipline. It's been just a week since I have been here, but it felt like forever. The semester had already resumed, but why did I care about school? I wasn't leaving here anytime soon Chelsea made sure to drill this into my head. Chelsea finally decided I was ready to serve again. This time it wasn't a private room but the VIP area of the club. Grand Ale's Night Club was one of the biggest clubs in the city, popular for its aesthetic, drink and music. It was exclusive, and every weekend, a popular musician performed. Not just anyone could enter. Aside from that, it was also known for having one of the best strippers, waiters and escorts. The prettiest girls were ready to serve as long as

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   27 - In this together

    ADELINA'S POV Jacintha was more than furious, her face twisted into a scowl. The minister was displeased but said nothing against Jacintha's actions. He focused on cleaning up the stain on his shirt. No matter how I tried, I wasn't brave enough for this. The room went silent. Even the music paused. Everyone was staring at me. I stared blankly at her. I tried my very best not to return the slap, but my body moved on its own. I slapped Jacintha back, and she fell on the minister. A round of gasps rang in the room. Jacintha was stunned. I had the guts to slap her, but I was more stunned than her. I was foolish enough to return the slap. Her face twisted, anger shining in her eyes."You will pay for that." She barked at me, ready to pounce on me any second. Someone quickly intervened, grabbing my hand. I was pulled out of the room, and as soon as the door was shut, I was met with another harsh slap. "What did I tell you about not causing any trouble?" Chelsea barked at

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   26 - Won't Give Up

    ADELINA'S POV It took a while before I could wrap my head around the fact Vivianna sold me to cover up Dad's debt which I could not understand why. Not because of how she could do such a thing but why it was necessary. Dad might have faced a challenge or two financially, but the Marino family was not broke. We had a couple of holdings in offshore accounts. What happened to those? I guess I might never know unless I was leaving this dumpster which didn't seem possible anytime soon. Why was this happening now of all times? Just when I was in my finals and about to round up school, all my effort just had to be thrown away. "Someone looks pretty tonight," Chelsea chimed from behind me. My hand that was laying lipstick over my lips froze. I was in the dressing room getting prepared for tonight. It was a big night because finally after being tormented in the name of being trained Chelsea decided I was good enough to serve those slimy bastards Chelsea was the true b
