02|Bullets.~~~~We maintain eye contact for only a few seconds, yet I feel like I have been gazing into his eyes for a long time. Averting my gaze from his, I try pushing myself up, only to fall back again, Valentino frowns. “Um, could you help me up.” I ask his chauffeur.“Ah yes.” He holds my hand and helps me up.“My car is right over there.” I inform him, voice quievering, unable to forget what I just witnessed a few minutes ago. “Wait.” My Uncle In-law commands, I freeze, because for no reason in particular, my heart squeezes at the sound of his voice, he walks over to me, steady, confident like he has nothing to lose, his scrutinizing gaze examines me. “Why are you covered in blood?”The moment he speaks, I step back, almost stumbling. “Uh, I um.” I lick my lips, glancing behind me, right where I had just sat on blood. “I don't know.” My gaze snaps to his scrutinizing one, what if he is the masked man? Or what if it’s a friend of his?If he is in any way related to the death I

04|Options.~~~~ My shoulders relax, atleast i am not being attacked by an assassin. “I am um… I am Amber.” I introduce myself, turning my back to her so I can close the refrigerator. The woman relaxes. “Oh, hey Amber. I am Viola.” She puts down her frying pan. “ Sorry for this, I presumed you would be asleep till I leave.” Her voice is thick with her accent, raven hair packed in a bun, she isn't dressed like a maid, in fact, she looks like the lady of the house.I lean against the refrigerator, the cold seeping into my skin, reminding me of the fact that I am still in my thin nightgown, and that I had almost died just earlier today.“Oh my, I can't believe he left you all by yourself.” Her eyes widen when I limp towards the counter.“ah, it's nothing, I just sprained my ankle, it should be back to normal by tomorrow.” I inform Viola.“Oh, you silly girl, you can barely walk a step without support, how is this any good from using a crutch.” She wraps her hand around my waist. “Here,

06|I Don't Want You. A gasp tears out my lips as he squeezes my neck from behind. My back connects with the wall, and he leans in closer, lips connecting with my neck. I bite back a moan when he nibbles on the skin, while caressing my waist. He moves my hand to his neck, pulling him closer. “You smell so damn good." He mutters, sucking on the spot beneath my jaw. My lips part softly, feeling myself lose control. “We..." My words are interrupted with a shrill sound that reverberates through the room, Valentino lets out a groan, finally releasing me. I stay like that, cheat heaving up and down, while he heads to the bed where his phone is continuously ringing. “What?!" He demands the moment he picks the call.Valentino runs his hand through his hair at whatever the person just said, then he walks out of the room, while speaking rapidly in Italian, almost so fast that I only catch. “Burn the cargo-” then he's out. My eyes close.Now reeling on the thought of what I have just done.I

08| Still Being Haunted. I get my answer when Valentino glowers at me, gaze heavy and icy. Yes, yes I have gone too far, yet I can't relent, not now. So I square my shoulders, ignoring the thundering of my heart on my chest. With a gulp, I continue with my verbal assault. “I said that my husband isn't like the likes of you. I know it was you who shot him, you wanted him dead so you could have the empire to yourself. Killing your father wasn't enough for you, now you want me? Just how many life must you ruin before you stop?“ The moment I am done speaking do I realize what I have said, my lips parts in a soft gasp. The room temperature drops, the air shifts.

Valentino steps closer, making me take a step back. “W-well, I didn't mean it like-" my back collides with the table edg
