Angela's pov
------------------

I'm rudely awaken by the door being thrown open with a loud bang. I quickly sit up on the bed looking around alerted.

"Well, she's a pretty little thing isn't she..." a man says while strolling into the room. I don't recognize him though and sink further into the bed.

He comes up to me and smiles. "I'm sorry if I startled you from your sleep, but I just had to come see what all the fuss was about."He says.

"I'm Dante."He introduces himself while holding out his hand. I slowly shake his hand while looking down.

" I'm Angela." I say quietly. He softly tilts up my head by putting this finger under my chin. He smiles at me and just stares at me for a few seconds.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Angela." He says and I now notice that he's quite handsome. He has curly dark brown hair, light brown eyes and the most longest eyelashes I've seen. "Don't look down princess, how will anyone be able to see you're pretty eyes." He says softly and I just stare at him with wide eyes.

"Get your hands off her, Dante." a dark voice interrupted us. Dante quickly pulls away and clears his throat. I turn to the door and see the same man from yesterday.

Elijah.

He's standing there with his arms crossed and a death glare directed to Dante. "Get out." He gritted out and Dante just leaves without question.

He closes the door and walks toward the bed. I move away from him, wanting to be as far way from him as I could. He frowns at this but still sits down on the edge of the bed.

"I feel like we got of the wrong foot."He says

" Well you did kidnap me."I say quietly. He looks at me and just ignores what I said.

"Let's start over," He says. "I'm Elijah Black."

"Angela Santiago."I say. He holds out his hand for me to shake. I place my hand in his but he doesn't shake it, instead he just slowly brings it up to his lips and gives a gentle kiss on my hand,while still keeping eye contact.

I feel my cheeks burn and I quickly take my hands away and place them in my lap.

"We're going shopping today, since you don't have any clothes here and you will be staying here for awhile. I would've sent you with one of the guards but I don't trust any of them with your safety, so I'm taking you." He says, while avoiding eye contact this time.

"It's not like I have a choice..." I say quietly and he throws a glare at me. I look down again and I hear him sigh. "I'm sorry, I'll be ready in a few minutes, then we can go."

"Mrs. Perez will bring you breakfast and a set of clothes, then we'll go." He says and leaves the room. I sigh and get out of bed.

I go take a quick shower and brush my teeth. When I leave the bathroom with a towel wrapped around me, I find a pretty white sundress on my bed. I quickly change and eat my breakfast that was set on the bedside table.

After I'm done, I just wait for Elijah or someone to come get me.

For some reason, I'm not treated like a captive. At least not really. I'm not tied up or being held in a dark dirty cell. I'm in a mansion with nearly a hundred men and guns. I have my own room, or at least I think it's my room. There are some men's clothes in the closet but I'm not sure who they belong to.

My thoughts are interrupted by the door opening and Mrs. Perez leads me downstairs. I'm assuming this is also a mansion because it's huge. It's bigger then mine back home. When we finally reach downstairs, I see Elijah waiting at the door on his cellphone.When he finally looks up, he looks at me from head to toe while clenching his jaw.
