All Chapters of The Mafia's Slave: Claimed By My Stepbrother: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

KEITH I heard a voice, which came to me as a shock, because each time I took my bath in my office bathroom, I always ensured that I was alone, even to the point of instructing my secretary to make sure that no one came in.“Who is there?” I bellowed angrily.I didn’t bother with hiding my nakedness, because no one would see anything.“It’s Jackie and me.”That was Saint’s voice and I gritted my teeth in annoyance.“I need some bloody space!” I barked at that.“Alright, alright, we are leaving,” Saint said.I waited until I felt they were gone before I finished washing up and came out of the bathroom.They really wouldn’t have been able to see me directly because of the demarcation, but still, I preferred my privacy.After getting out of the shower, I took my time to get dressed. It wasn’t until I was satisfied with being done that I went to my office main door and yanked it open.I found Saint and Jackie waiting at my private reception area.“What did I tell you about letting anyone

MIA“Why would you say a thing like that?” Cain asked me.I thought of telling him, but somehow, I changed my mind instantly. I was comfortable around him, but there was this part of me that always reminded me that he worked for Keith, and by extension, Saint, and so his loyalty would definitely lie with them.“Never mind,” I quickly snapped.Cain looked like he had something to say, but then he changed his mind. After a moment of silence, he spoke again.“Do you want to continue the tour?” He asked me.I really wanted to, because I still wanted to escape desperately, but then again, I didn’t feel up to it right now.“We should continue later,” I responded in a way that obviously stated that I didn’t trust him, and he knew about it.“You will have to learn to trust someone someday, Mia,” Cain said deeply, but I looked away. “Let me know when you are ready,” he added.Then he walked out of the room.I sat on the bed and hugged myself tightly as I began to tremble. The weight of all tha

MIALeft alone now with my thoughts, I shuddered. I really wished that I hadn’t ignored those signs from my first meeting with Edward Zachary, but then, I wanted to accommodate him because of my mum, little did I know that it would come back to bite me in the ass.Reminiscing about the past did nothing but made me very enraged.“I have enough going on already. I shouldn’t let this make me feel worse,” I encouraged myself.Besides, I had to remind myself that I should be planning my escape and not sitting here worrying about what had already happened that I had no power or control over.I got up and went to the door, but when I got to the door, I stopped. I became a little scared of opening the door and stepping out.“You can’t continue to be scared, Mia,” a stern voice in my head said. “You obviously cannot jump out through the window, so how else do you expect to make your way out of here? Keith is away right now, and this is the perfect time to plot your escape,” the voice added dee

MIAI followed the instruction that was given to me and found myself in the kitchen where I saw Tessa.“What are you doing here?” She asked me frantically.Then I noticed that she was looking over my shoulder.“Where is your bodyguard?” She asked, making me realize that she was stretching her neck in search of Cain.Was she intending to report me to him or give me back to him? She seemed really agitated; more tense than she had been when she was in the bedroom. “He is taking a stroll,” I answered.It was a lie, of course, but it was the best that I could come up with.“And you got here all by yourself?” Tessa asked me.“I got directions from the guard upstairs,” I told her. “You don’t seem pleased to see me,” I added.I wasn’t really comfortable with how she was acting. I thought that there was a small form of friendship between us, but it just dawned on me that outside that bedroom, I was a stranger to her. I would have backed down, but I remembered that I was on a mission to befri

JACKIE I drove roughly to where I was headed, eager to get there. I was also upset, because if she hadn’t called me, Keith wouldn’t have found out that I was spying on him.Thinking about it made my eyes go to my wrist and the bruise that Keith’s tight grip caused, and I winced in pain.“Fucking bastard,” I swore under my breath.However, my unflinching love for Keith couldn’t make me hate. From the first day Von Quavo introduced us, telling me that Keith was his son.And I had quickly said in my head, “Thank goodness Von Quavo isn’t my father.”That would have been wrong, and it wouldn’t have prevented me from desiring Keith. He would have been forbidden fruit, and forbidden fruits were always sweeter. “Soon, Keith. Time is all it takes, and I am willing to wait…but not forever,” I vowed to myself.Keith was the only man for me, and I was more than determined to get him.I arrived at the sex house in no time, and my anger was still boiling hot.“Where the fuck is Madeline?!” I bark
