The Trillionaire's Highest Bid

Chapter 17

Giovanni's POV

I gazed at her. 

She wasn't supposed to see that. I thought.

"Gio, the body's all taken care of." Domenico said when he came inside the room.

"Good." I replied, my eyes still fixed on Miognette.

"She wasn't supposed to see that." He said

"I know. Now I have to deal with this." 

"Anyway, I need to go to Paris for a meeting. Want me to do something?" He asked

"I need you to know why Miognette moved to Rome." 

"Okay. Anything else?" 

"No." With that we bid each other goodbye.

I mean look at the bright side at least she knows. I simply sighed at the positive thought.

I'll deal with this tomorrow. I thought and got ready for bed.

Miognette P.O.V.

I woke up to the sound of birds chirping. I opened my eyes and jumped when I saw Giovanni sitting on the sofa in front of the bed staring at me. Then the horrid memories from last night came to me.

I grabbed the sheets closer to my body and  gave him a glare.

"You murdered that man." I said, every word filled with hostility.

"He was a bad man. He deserved to die." He replied coldly 

"How do you know that."

"He stole from me. He was willing to kill his family so he can work for me. Now tell me mia bella, Is that kind of man still worthy of your mercy?"

I stayed silent and lowered my head.

"Exactly." He stood from his chair and turned his head slightly to me.

"What are you?" 

"I'm someone dangerous, and you? you're gonna be that dangerous man's wife in a few days." 

I frowned at his words.

"I want to get out of here. I don't want to do anything with a murderer." I said walking my way to the door. I need to get out of here. I have survived and endured this long. I don't want my death to come earlier than expected.

He suddenly grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him.

"Enough with your blabbing. If you wanna get the fuck outta here then pay me back the money I wasted for you." He said

"I'll work for it. I don't care if It takes my whole life. Anything is better than being with you." 

Before I could react he pushed me on the bed and pinned me down.

"You already are. You being my wife is your payment and your work. Don't force me to be rough with you, Miognette. Cause if you force me to you would be broken, emotionally and..." 

He paused and his eyes went down to my lips, to my breasts then back to my eyes. His eyes darkened and filled with lust.

I gulped and held my breath.

 He brought his face closer to my ear. 

I could smell his perfume and his minty breath.

"Physically. I would break you to the point you couldn't feel anything from your waist down." He said in a dangerously low tone.
