THE GOLDEN LEASH.​"I am twenty-two years old, father, not a child”.Katerina Romano’s voice shook in anger . She stood in the middle of the room, her chest heaving underneath her silk blouse, her blue eyes blaring with a fire.​Don Romano did not even spare her a glance, his eyes fixed on his ledger. He poured himself a glass of red wine with a steady hand—releaxed oblivious to Katerina fury.​"You are a Romano," he said, his voice low, with a terrifying rumble. "And until you learn that your casual life in university is a threat on your back, you will have a personal bodyguard. The last one was a failure because he was ridiculously soft and polite. This one... this one is strict and different"​"I don't want ‘different'!....I don't want any of this, I just want to be left alone!" Katerina spun toward the tall glassed windows. "I have got a lecture in an hour. I’m going on my own”.​"You’re going with him, and that's final." her father commanded. Finally looking up, from his ledger

I’ve finally ditched Xavier.”“ Good, i’

Katerina opened her mouth, her voice a faint, terrified whisper. "Jackson, I..."​Before she could finish, the grand double doors of the ballroom were open. A Romano soldier, face pale and bloodied, stumbled. Everyone gasped in utter horror at the sight of him.​"Don Romano!" the soldier collapsed to the floor. "The estate is breached!....they are not here to talk, but to burn the house down “​In the chaos, Jackson looked unbothered. He stood up, but his eyes weren't on Katerina anymore. He looked directly at XavierXavier didn't wait. He vaulted over a table, his gun drawn in alarm, his lethal focus locked on Jackson. "Run to the library Katerina!....now!!” Xavier snapped in alert. *****************The party roared downstairs—with sheer terror as the guest paced around agitated searching for an exit.Inside the mahogany-rowed library, ​Katerina stood by the window.She turned when the door clicked open and shut. She knew the rhythm of those footsteps anywher
