You Can Run But... Sabotage
The following morning, the yell of men packing loads and decking trucks with tent tools had her standing up from the bed, pushing the net away, and coming out of it.She was limping. She just noticed that her clothes were still bloody, her eye was blood red, and her hair was scattered from the night before. She was quite a sight, and the men couldn't help but take a second glance at her.Ignoring them, she walked around the campsite, her eyes falling on the ashes of the bonfire from last night. Most of the tents were brought down, and only a few remained. She hurriedly ran to avoid two men coming towards her with a metal pole in hand.Maya gripped the sides of the skirt, watching the struggle and bustle. She couldn't wait to be in the truck, telling all of this bye.She looked to her side, seeing the little boy she had seen last night with a little past middle-aged man overseeing the packing.The boy held his hand, playing around him, not even intimidated by his rock-hard face.She di
You Can Run But... Death's Bride
She sat on the car seat, gazing out the window as the road became familiar. The morning was suddenly cold and uncomfortable, and her stomach was churning and burning at the thought that she was returning to him.Sure was the worst way to get your hopes smashed to pieces; she shut her eyes so she couldn't feel the car swerving back to the manor.But it only made her feel the burn on her cheeks the more, and it felt sore against the car that she had to sit up, forcing her neck to stay still.This was the shortest journey she had ever been on, even though the quickest route was taken. When Maya saw the gate of the manor, she retreated into her emotionless self. It was the only part that could survive him.He was on the patio waiting, and when he saw the car drive by, he only stood by, watching the car park to the side of the compound.George came down, buttoned his suit just fine, and came over to open the door for her. His hateful eyes met hers as she stepped out of the car, praying she

"Smile a little, Madame, you see as you walk to your funeral," Lina said, wholly frustrated with Maya, who refused to smile after her makeup was done, staring straight at the mirror and ignoring the beauty she reflected. All she could see was him, inhaling him wherever she went, his aura enveloping her like nature's air. It had been three days since she was dragged back to the manor—three days of preparations and constant questions, most of which she didn't answer, leaving the planners perplexed about how to carry out Don's order of "Whatever Donna says." Three days of him staying out and she staying in, barely eating anything and staring out the window into space, her thoughts racing like a freight train. Good thing he was never around these days, even when Maria had come over-excited at the prospect of a wedding with the news that Gretta and Derinem had sent their apologies for not being able to come. Was she relieved? Yes, she was; it was a lot of solaces. She couldn't imagine
You Can Run But... Donna
NOTE; THIS CHAPTER HAS TRIGGERS. *********MAYA'S POVHe wrapped his fingers around my throat, tilting my head back against his chest, his other fingers tracing my breast down to my abdomen."Everyone has a dark side," he whispers, "and you are mine, do you know?" The pressure tightened around my neck, making me gasp and swallow, my breaths getting shallow. "You're the first thing I think of when I wake up and the last when I close my eyes.""Let me go," I cried, afraid of his whispers; it was getting furious and psychotic. "Please let me go.""Can't you see?!" He held the nape of my neck, turning me around to face him, "Can't you see it's fucking all about you?"The anger that welled up in his eyes had all my sounds stuck in my throat; he was a demon, that's it: a psychopath and everything in between. And I had been forcefully drawn to his world."Now," he hovered above me, "do you want it easy or hard? I'm all up for it, Maya. I'm all up for you."Nothing about him was going to be e

Authors POV She shook her head slowly, bringing her hair back to her face again. She pushed them away, her sobs resuming furiously, "I didn't do it, Anna did, and I was forced to agree to it because... " He had his hands on her shoulders, and she gasped, "Anna? Your sister," She nodded in desperation, searching his eyes so he would believe her. Her petite frame was under his glare. Before he turned, she thought she saw guilt on his face. Looking up at his stiff back and down to his clenched fist, she could see he was fighting the urge to believe her. "You were there; she wasn't; you saw it; she didn't; quit the lies, Maya. It's fruitless." She inhaled, staring at his back; it surprised her the hurt she heard in his voice; he just found out she was innocent, and he was guilty of everything he did to her; did he hurt too? But why not admit it? "I couldn't forget about it. It stuck in my head, and all I wanted to do was turn it off, so I wrote it down in my journal." "Why did yo

You Can Run But... Devil in her (3)
It was two days later, and she was alone in Maestro's room. Since the wedding night, he never slept in the room; he only came in to get his clothes and left again.It wasn't all that comfortable; it seemed weird when he dodged her eyes, guilt welling inside those grey, tired orbs.She also noticed that there was blood on most of the clothes he had changed from, and when they were together on the dining table, his fist was bruised, bluish, and looked painful.Quiet was the term, and it suddenly felt slightly over the edge.Her body had begun to calm from the assault of that night, and all she did now was keep Maria company, and when she wasn't doing that, she was signing ownership papers.Revenge couldn't get any sweeter than this.Lina flowed into the room, her face looking brighter than usual. She knew the source; she had finally forgiven Luca, and these days she was always on the phone, so Maya found herself pitying Derinem."Donna" Maya blinked at her reluctance to tell what was go

"It's seven, madam!" Lina scolded the girl before her, all dressed up in a skimpy black gown that barely covered her thighs, jewelry glittering on her ears and hands, and makeup so heavy that Lina wondered if she could even move her face. "Come on, Lina, don't be such a killjoy." Maria pouted, "All you have to do is cover up for me till I'm back." She went behind Lina, who was arranging cups on the rack after cleaning them with a towel."There are high chances he won't even ask." She shrugged, saying, "All I ask is for you to tell him I'm in my room till I'm back."Lina turned to face her, her hands akimbo. "Where to, madam?"Maria avoided her eyes. "Well, I won't be long; that's all you should know."Grabbing her bag from the counter, she began to walk out of the kitchen but stopped when Lina called after her, "When you be back?""Two," she called back, fleeing from sight.She was tired, tired of the tightness of the manor; everyone had their emotions pent up, including Damon; he nev
