MIRANDAI wonder what Antonio wants to tell me.He hasn't been home for the past two days.I miss him.As weird as that may have sounded,I actually do miss him.His touch.His voice.Even the way he cautions me when I go against his simple instructions.I hugged the bedsheets so tightly. I squeezed them in my hands and inhaled the fragrance out of them.His cologne still spreads around the room and on the sheets.He had become a part of me already even though his presence only threatened me and made me feel scared.I have become so glued to having him around so I feel empty when he is not.Let's not go to the sex.As much as I hate him and wish to escape his grasp, I enjoy every moment of it.It was as though he had cursed me with his charm and now I am left trapped in his sexiness and beauty.The way he handles me is one of a kind.I can't seem to get it out of my head.A feeling I hold onto whenever I want to While I was wandering in my thoughts, I heard a voice from outside my r
MIRANDAQuick.Making sure he didn't notice anything, I rushed to put back the contents of the purse in it.As soon as I saw him coming, I acted like I was focused on the flowers so I strolled my hands through them.The first thing he went to was his phone.I could see the look on his face as I glared at him with my side-eye.“Boss called?” He asked.“Hmmm…what a scope!” I thought.I didn't answer. I acted like I didn't hear his question.I have been around Antonio and his men for too long to know their schemes and ways of finding out things.I could say I had become smarter staying in that mansion and watching things play out in front of me.He picked up his phone and went away.It was obvious he didn't want me to listen to his conversation.But I had my plans too.Ever since my plan to escape failed, I had totally become Antonio's own.Watching over his back and finding out things for him even though he didn't tell me to.I knew how much he loved his sister and I know he is out for
DON VITOSOME YEARS AGO,“Bring her in.”“I hope you did a neat job. No one saw you?”“Not at all,” Danny answered.Danny is one of my secret agents who does dirty jobs for me.Smuggling, Kidnapping, Murdering.He was good, sharp, and fast.He was the right person to do this job.I know how much Antonio loves and protects his sister.I already had him disoriented after I made one of my men at his place steal the suitcase.I needed to shake him a bit.Not even shake him.I needed him to be totally committed and submissive.“I want to be his everything. His godfather. His only family.”That his sister seems to be taking up his attention and focus from me and the businessI need his head in the game.“Boss, are we really doing…doing this? Antonio is….” Danny said.“Shut it. You don't know Antonio as much as I do. What I do with him, how I handle him is none of your business.”“His sister shall be here with me till I am tired of her and satisfied before I release her.”“That is if I decid
ANTONIOI exhaled.Am I scared?Despite knowing all it takes is for me to pull out my gun and blow his brains out?Am I really scared?Well yes. Not to act. Not the fear of pulling a gun out on him.It's more than that.I have a family to protect. At least the only family left.I have Miranda who is also carrying my unborn child.Don Vito must not know of Miranda.Don Vito was the last person I was expecting to be here today.His visit was sudden, strange, and quite suspicious.I got downstairs. Signaling to my men to stand at their utmost guard.“I need your heads up. Every single one of you. Don is right outside,” I said to my men.“On guard. Maximum guard. I don't want to see any of you jesting or whatever. Have I made myself clear?!” I said aloud as I made my way to the entrance gate.“Open the gate!” I instructed my gate man who stood at attention waiting for my order.His convoy of cars rolled in. “What is all these for?”This has to be planned.“Antonio,” Don Vito alighted from
MIRANDA I fell.I didn't know what happened.The only thing I remember was me trying to catch my breath inside the wardrobe I was locked in.I was scared.That sound. I hope Antonio isn't in trouble with that sound I just made.I couldn't feel my legs.I lay there like a helpless being.My whole body was numb.I tried to lift myself off the ground but I couldn't.It was like there was a heavy load on my back.I tried to reach out to the bed poles but I was too far from them.Before I knew what was happening, I heard footsteps approaching.The person was in a hurry from the sound of his feet on the stairs.Fear gripped me on that spot.If that was Antonio then I am in big trouble.Or wait, could it be Don?Does he know already?I tried again to get up.I groaned in pain.Suddenly, the door opened and Xander came in.I gave a sigh of relief.Some seconds ago, my heart almost jumped out of my heart."Xander, help," I spoke softly."Ma'am, you have to be quiet. Don Vito is right downstai
XANDER"What's the issue with you?""Don't you know you could put me in trouble?""Why the fuck would you be calling at that hour? We had an agreement!""What if Antonio creeps in and finds me talking to you? How do I get myself out of that mess?"I lashed heavily at the man who stood in front of me.He was sent by Don Vito to get my daily report on Dante's movement and plans."You still haven't given me anything, Mr.Man. What do I tell Don?" The fellow said."So all I am saying doesn't mean anything to you?"He didn't respond. He just stood there like he was going to shoot me after I told him everything."Your report, Xander?""I have no report," I replied angrily.He scoffed."No report? What the heck are you saying?""Do you want my head blown off? How do you expect me to go back to him with such?" the young man said."Oh, so you know that too? That's exactly how it feels when you disturb me with your calls. That could land me in trouble with Antonio and his…."Shit! I had to stop
MIRANDA"Please don't go. What if he catches you?" Karen shivered, holding my hands."I won't let him see me. Just don't lose hope, sis. I'm going to get help and come back for you. Just stay safe, please," I promised, encouraging my kid sister.It's been fourteen years since we lost our home and our parents to that monster called Don Vito.A deadly, dangerous man. He wiped our family and took Karen and me as his hostage.For fourteen years he has been maltreating my sister and me, threatening to end us both if we go against him.This life of torment and suffering, I can no longer take it anymore. So, I came up with a plan to escape.I planned on taking Karen along, but she's just too scared to move. She's afraid of Don Vito spotting and harming us both.I can understand her fear. The poor girl has been in trauma for years. The pains, torments, abuse..."Just stay here. I promise to bring back help. Together we'll leave this city and head to a better place, okay?""Okay," Karen nodded
MIRANDAWhat? Be his tool of pleasure?His eyes remained on me, waiting for my response to his condition.I'm trying to save my sister and me from one monster, and he is planning on making me his tool of pleasure."No, I can't accept that, " I refused Antonio.He stared at me with his right brow levitating at my answer.But that got me thinking."If I turn him down, how will I save my sister? He's the only one I can ask for help. He's ready to help if I please him, so..." I reasoned, looking back at Antonio.I guess he knows what is going on in my head because I've been quiet after my first answer.Having no choice, I agreed to his condition."This is about my sister's life. She's very important to me. I'm ready to do anything to save her from Don Vito. So, you have yourself a deal," I accepted.His eyes shone with delight as he carefully took his hands off me, letting me go.He said nothing but sat properly against the wheels.I lifted myself off the armrest, wondering how we'd execu
