Lahat ng Kabanata ng Sinful Visions of the Mafia: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

*SILIA*“Do you really have to do this Silia?” Diana asked following me into the office that I was sure was the last time I was stepping in. She was usually composed whenever she was in public, especially in this building but today she seemed different. The eyes moved after her and at me, who she was following after talking so languidly and informally which was completely unlike the ice queen persona she usually carried.I was worried about her reputation and so silently and in a fast manner I walked over to the elevator to shut us in.When it was finally the two of us alone I sighed, looked over at her and said, “Please don’t make it harder than it already is for me. I don’t want to leave you two as well but I have to. I am sorry Diana but please try and understand me.”My voice quivered at the end as I had still been very weak and exhausted from yesterday. I had barely received any sleep last night and as soon as it was time to go to the office I had decided to submit my application

*SILIA*This was my only chance.“Are you here?” I asked Nicholas, whispering to be sure that no one would hear me.“Yeah, I am standing a little away from the west boundary wall but I don’t think I can stay here for long or else I might raise suspicion,” he said and I could sense his nervousness.“You are right so I will make it quick. I know that in about five minutes they will change their shift it will be then that I will sneak out,” I explained trying to assure him that it was alright.“But the wall is too high on this side, how are you going to escape. I don’t think you can climb out,” he said and I know his worries were reasonable but after training with Alfeo for so long I had learnt a lot and climbing a twelve feet wall wasn’t that hard for me anymore.“No don’t worry I'll be alright,” I said wheeling my trolley suitcase out of my room and down the corridor.“What about security cameras?” he asked and I chuckled softly at his words.“For once I am happy to have been paying at

*SILIA*It was official, the Calix siblings were crazy.This morning after I had hidden away in my room and locked myself in I had been disturbed by a knock on my door. Draven’s voice soon came through asking me to come out or let him in. When I had refused to even answer back to him, he got angrier.He didn’t specify why he was angry but I did hear him shout and say how could I just leave after spending the night with him? The words although clear the meaning was not. I didn’t know whether he was angry that I hadn’t waited to hear him cuss at me or if he had wanted to talk. But if I be honest what else would Draven talk to me about except to say that he had made a mistake? And that I didn’t want to hear.“Silia, open the door. Please let’s talk about what happened yesterday.”This was what he said first. His coaxing was soft and beckoning, almost making me want to melt and curl up in his arms. To cry and tell him about my problems but I had been too ashamed to say anything.“Silia, y

*SILIA*I am woken up by my parched throat from the deep restless slumber that I had been in.After working the rest of the day in Alfeo’s floor and talking to Delilah during the break I had realized that this was how normal life would be for me for a little while. Since I had been told that my life was in danger I should have been scared about it but I knew that as long as I was in the office or this mansion the Calixes would keep me safe.But I had still been on edge for another reason. I couldn’t shake off the fact that Draven might have been watching me through the security cameras or that if he wished to he could come to me or call me up to him. I wanted to avoid seeing him for a little while longer until I could ease into this discovered truth.It wasn’t because I was just being indecisive but I was so happy that I was scared that if I was proved wrong once again, if he was just going to laugh and insult me once again for having some hope then the recovery would be long. I might

*SILIA*Did I forgive Draven yet?No, the answer is a no for now but did I give him a chance to prove himself that he might change?Then yes I did.I am conflicted about whether I had given in too soon or that I could have resisted more but I do not care anymore than this. I didn’t want any regrets and it looked like he was really trying to change.‘But he didn’t say that he loves you yet…’The voice in my head reminded me and I knew that it was still something that I needed to be worried about but since I knew the reason behind why he was like this, there was a big chance that Draven would change if the danger that is looming over me somehow gets eradicated.Knowing that he cares for me instead of hating was a lot better than nothing.“Good morning Silia!” Delilah greeted me properly for the first time in a while finding me alone.“Good morning,” I beamed back at her happy to see her face.At my greeting she looked struck for a second and then mellowing her gaze she said, “I am happy
