CHAPTER XII
Luciano scrunched up his nose when he knelt down in front of her. “Open those cute eyes, it’s time for Don to take your life, finally”, Immediately he said it, her eyes snapped open and his expression was replaced with a victorious grin that his little trick worked. “I just knew it!”,
“What do you want? “She fake glared at him with a pout and sat up, folding her arms across her chest.
“Is that you trying to glare at me, sweet cheeks? “Luciano raised a teasing brow, and then he playfully pinched her small nose. “You’re so cute and innocent”, He smiled. “Anyways, I came to tell you to go and have your bath.” He used his palms to cover his nose. “I can literally smell the odor from outside there, so if you don’t want me to die whilst watching over you, go and have a bath”, He joked.
“Oh please, stop exaggerating it. It’s not as if I smell on a normal basis”, She pouted again.
“So you talk back? “He chuckled. “I thought you were just a stuttering eighteen year old girl who loves crying,”
Sophia teared up immediately. “Do I really love crying? Is that why your brother hates me so much?”,
“No no”, He chuckled at her. “Lucas loves shedding blood and is only upset you weren’t killed because it wasn’t fair on other poor victims that were killed for being witnesses. And he’s the boring brother here so forget him, sweet cheeks”,
Sophia smiled. “Thank you,”
“Don’t thank me. Go and have your fucking bath”, He gently pulled her arm and opened the bathroom door before pushing her inside. “Make good use of it. It’s not for fancy”,
“I-“, Before she could say anything, he closed the door on her face and locked it.
Was he fond of locking people?
~~~
Sophia walked out of the bathroom with a robe draped round her body and a towel on her wet hair. One might be wondering how she got out but when she was having her bath, she heard the door being unlocked and she was grateful when whoever it was-definitely Luciano-didn’t walk into the bathroom.
She’d taken her time washing up her dirty body and hair, and she felt refreshed. She was actually grateful for Luciano, who forced her to do so, but she just wouldn’t tell him.
After blow drying her hair and creaming her body, she walked into the walk in closet and stared at the expensive clothes, shoes, bags and other items before shaking her head. All she wanted was her freedom. With a soft sigh, she took a big shirt and a pair of shorts before putting them on. She felt more comfortable in them at that moment.
She sat down on her bed and puffed out air from her lips. She was bored and didn’t know what to do. All of sudden, she thought about college and stood up. Maybe if she asked Chase to let her go to college, she’ll not be bored again.
She opened the door and luckily for her, it wasn’t locked. She studied the hallway and realized that Luciano wasn’t anywhere close so she just walked towards the staircase.
“What are you doing out of your room? “A cold voice reached her ears, and she turned. “I was asked to watch over you. I can’t let you leave your room.” He didn’t have that playful tone in his voice again, and it terrified her.
“But Luciano, please, I just want to meet Chase, please”, She pleaded.
“What do you want to tell him? “He accessed her.
She passed him a small, shy smile. “see, I had a bath just as you asked me to. Why can’t you just do what I ask of you?”,
“You had no choice but to have your bath, sweet cheeks, and only I have a choice to take you to him or not”, He said, and she blinked her eyes at him. “come, I’ll take you to him,”
Just when they were about to walk any further, Luciano’s phone rang in his pocket and they stopped. With his lips pursed into a thin line in distaste, he brought the phone out of his pocket and stared at the caller ID.
“You’ll have to wait for me to pick up the call, it’s more important than your life”, He said, and she pouted at his back as he turned to pick up the call.
Barely ten minutes passed and Sophia was already feeling impatient so she just ignored Luciano who was still making his call with his back facing her and she cascaded down the stairs only to see a lot of men she recognized as Chase’s men watching television while some were playing cards, having the time of their life while she was held captive by their cold-hearted and terrifying master. Who would’ve thought that Chase Romano ever allowed his men to watch television and play cards in his own house?
“Excuse me”, She called out, but no one answered her. With a small pout, she went to stand in front of the television, finally gaining their attention. “Excuse me, you all! “Her voice came out as a bare whisper.
“Hey girl, move away! “One of them waved her off, but she didn’t move.
“I’ve been trying to talk to you all, but your attentions were on this television, so please tell me where Chase Romano is”, She whispered out again.
A few gasps eluded their lips at the way she bluntly called his name, and she only let out a soft sigh.
“Please, where is he? “She asked more politely after thinking of how those men could take her life easily.
“I’ll tell you about his whereabouts only if you give me a blowjob!” One of them said, and the man by his side nudged his stomach. “What’s it? She looks pretty innocent and fit for something like that. I’ve already imagined the-“, Before he finished, a bullet was shot in between his eyes, and Sophia gasped in horror.
She looked at his lifeless body before turning to whoever had shot him.
Chase Romano.
He stood there with an emotionless face on as he tucked his gun back in the holster of his pants while the other men stood up immediately, looking at their feet.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“Come here”, Chase stuck out two fingers to her and she walked towards him shakily. She caught the sight of Luciano standing at the last step of the staircase while he had an expression which she couldn’t understand on his face but one thing she knew was that it wasn’t a good one. She instantly regretted not waiting for him.
What if Chase killed her, too?
“Come, Gattina. I won’t hurt you, will I?”. Chase held her wrists and stared at her lips. “Don’t mind what he said just now”, The innocent look in her eyes told him that she clearly didn’t know the meaning of what that dead fucker had said. She didn’t know what a blowjob was. He held her bottom lip softly between his thumb and forefinger and caressed them softly as he thought of her giving him a blowjob just as he actually imagined a week ago. “You can only have your lips wrapped around one thing”, He said, and his cold gaze landed on everyone before he pulled her to his side. “Let me make one thing clear to you all. No one, when I mean no one, no one has the fucking right to even stare at her else I swear, I’ll chop off your balls and eyeballs before giving them to you to eat them because she is mine”, He looked at everyone in the room, before his cold empty voice rang out again. “sono dannatamente chiaro?”,
{“Kitten”} {“Am I fucking clear?”}
Everyone chorused out with their heads still bowed down, staring at their feet’s. “si, Don”,
{“Yes, Don”}
Sophia felt her whole world crumbling down at his announcement.
He had finally announced her as his possession. Something she didn’t even know what for.
