He dropped her on the bed as soon as he took her home. He didn't say a word to her and walked out of the room. Sofia hurried to the door and checked if it was locked, and it was. She didn't try to open it or struggle with it; she walked back to the bed and sat on it.She was still wearing his jacket and could smell his cologne. She took off the jacket and tossed it on the floor. Her eyes spotted the camera that was in the room; she knew he was going to be watching her. She raised up her middle finger and rolled her eyes at the camera. Well, call her childish; she couldn't live in a room forever.She peeled off the gown from her body. She stood in the room wearing her pants and the lacy bra Marie had picked for her. She walked into the bathroom and stood under the shower; the head pin was still on her hair. She took out the hair clip and opened it; the screen appeared in front of her eyes.She started typing on it, checking the GPS of the place, and found the address of the building sh

YULIAIt had been two weeks since the incident had happened. Sofia hasn't seen much of Alexander; whenever she was outside her room, he appeared. She would take the other direction or hide until he was gone. She would always peek out to see if he was there, and if he wasn't, she would leave her hiding spot.Staying in the house hasn't been so bad. Alexander had ordered someone to give her a phone, and she gladly accepted it. There was no one that she could call because there was literally no SIM card on the phone. She was only able to use the wifi and watch endless reels on Instagram and YouTube.She had information about all the kinds of jobs Alexander does, but she didn't have the chance to use it against him. She had already been suspected, and she was waiting for the time to tan his reputation. She needed to wait for the perfect time to strike.Marie had been checking on her from time to time, but Sofia was not ready to see Alexander. She was pretty sure that he was going to try t

PADRINO“You messed up!” Alessandro said.“I know, you have told me that thirty times already."They were sitting in the waiting room while Yulia was in the ward. She had fainted when they reached the basement. Alexander had pulled her into his arms and rushed her to the hospital. On the way, Alessandro couldn’t help but scream at his brother non-stop.“I thought you weren’t going to take revenge on her, but I guess I was wrong.” Alessandro scoffed.“I feel bad already; could you stop blaming me? I never knew she didn’t do it.""Like, why didn’t she remember you or your face?” Alessandro asked.“Maybe because of the accident I had, I went into surgery. My broken nose was changed, and my eyes look different.” Alexander replied. “I never knew she was innocent; now I feel like a villain. Would she ever forgive me?”“How terrible have you treated her?"Alexander stared at his brother and said, “You won’t want to know; I messed up big time.”“Just tell me."He wasn’t listening. Was Yulia s

YULIAAlexander opened the car door as they reached the pet store, and Sofia surveyed the environment. If it wasn’t for the pet store, she wouldn’t think about going out. A middle-aged woman appeared by the front door as soon as Sofia and Alexander pushed the door and walked into the store.“You are here!” The woman beamed as her gaze shifted from Alexander to Sofia. “You didn’t tell me you have a girlfriend, and I also haven’t seen you with any lady.”“She is a friend.” Alexander muttered, and she could feel the hesitation in his voice.“Even still…” The woman hesitated. “You never have female friends."Sofia glanced at Alexander; he shrugged off the woman's words, brushed past her, and walked inside the store.“Where are the pets that you need help with?” He questioned.A cat walked closer to his feet and meowed. Alexander peered down at the car. A smile appeared on his face, and he bent down to scoop the cat into his arms. He rubbed the cat’s belly while the cat squirmed under his

YULIAAfter waking up and dressing, she walked to the bed to pick up Mocha when she saw a card laying on the table. Her brows rose in confusion as she studied the card; she didn’t have a card, and she wondered how the card got to her room. Then she found the name of the owner written on it.“Alexander Dante Volkov?” She turned the card around. “Why would he give me his card?”A frown found its way to her face. She lifted Mocha into her arms and hurried out of her room. She headed straight for Alexander’s room. She turned the door knob when she got to the door, but it wouldn’t bulge.“Alexander.” She called out. “Alexander!” She banged her hand against the door. “Come out of there.”After waiting for several minutes and not getting an answer from him, she hurried towards the elevator. Soon she was downstairs, running towards the living room. The pain in her legs was no longer hurting like it was, and she glanced around the living room. There was no one in the living room, so she headed
