MINE

Chapter 2: The Unlucky One

The next morning,

As I slowly woke up I could feel the heat of the sun beating on my face while I was snuggled in some sheets. As I look round the room i noticed the huge walk in closet attached to the bathroom while all I could focus on was the balcony.

I walked up and towards the balcony taking in the warm breeze of wind, as I slowly opened my eyes once again I noticed a few bruises on my arms and neck.

I slowly walked to the bathroom to get an unpleasant reflection of myself, before i think of creeping around I decide to wash my face at least to seem more pleasant.

Once I washed my face I turned to the door and slowly turned the knob, and poking my head out the door to see a corridor.

It was weirdly quiet as I thought of what had happened the night before, I started running towards the huge staircase leading into an open "lobby" near the door.

I smiled when I noticed there was no one around, I headed towards the door only to open it and run into a hard chest.

"Well good morning to you princess" I looked up to see the "boss" I assume that I saw last night and was struck with fear. He griped onto my waist quite tightly while I tried to loosen from is strength.

"Get off of me!" I said to him, however I instantly regretted it as soon as I saw the warmth from his face turn to anger. "I can do whatever I want with you, because your mine!" He yelled in anger. As his grip was getting tighter I finally had loosened from his grip enough, however I fell instantly from him letting go.

"Who the hell are you and what do you want with me!" I screamed while tears were streaming down my face. "One question at a time mi amore (my love)" "I'm Jeremiah Diego" instantly my face dropped, I had only heard rumours of what the mafia boss had looked like, many girls fantasised over him however none of the previous descriptions had matched his.

His chestnut brown hair had been neatly separated while he wore a navy blue suit matching with his silver eyes. "What!?" I screamed in shock "let me go your a killer! Let me-" I was cut off from finishing my words before he slammed my body against the marble wall with a hand to my throat earning a groan of pain from me.

"Watch what you say Maeve!" Wait how does he even know my name, what is that even a question he's a mafia leader for gods sake. Tears were pooling out my eyes and just as I thought he was going to slap me, me walked away leaving me crying.

Just as I was going to head back to the room I woke up in I ran into another tall man "Shit, sorry my bad" the man said while I looked up "Jesus what's happened to you? Are you alright?" He spoke again, I'm fine I said with my face back down ready to leave.

"You can't leave we have to clean you up" I hadn't realised but when I had fallen earlier I had cut my leg which was now bleeding out. This man took me from surprise as I expected him to shout at me however he was kind.

"No, I'll be fine" I replied "Seriously, you don't want to get that infected" he stated and I finally gave up and he led me to the kitchen which was connected to the entrance of the house.

"I'm Grayson, Jeremiah's best friend and second in command" he stated "Nice to meet you I'm Maeve" "What a nice name, I'm sorry about yesterday" Grayson said, I was confused as I didn't remember seeing his face when I was kidnapped.

"Why'd you say sorry it's not your fault" " Well it kind of is, you see when you were dancing I noticed Jeremiah staring at you and jokingly asked whether he was going to take you home and later that evening in the bar I saw the guy you had been dancing with slip a drug into your drink so I reported it to Jeremiah" this came as quite a shock to me what Grayson said.
