Sold to the mafia boss

I heard my own subs as I sat on the cold floor, my back against the wall.

I knew Logan was going to burst through the door any time soon and I didn’t wanna show him my weakness, didn’t wanna show him how much I feared him but I couldn’t bring myself to stop the tears from coming .

The door bursts open and the devil stalked in. I quickly stood up, my back still plastered on the wall while I tried to stop the tears from coming. I watched his menacing eyes. They glistened. His lips rose up at the corner in an amusing smirk.

I worked my brain to come up with a plan. I knew he would hit me, or worse kill me.

As he stalked towards me, I thought of what I’m gonna do now.

Think!

But as soon as he reached me, I pushed him back with my full hands pressed against his hard chest.

” Where were you all this while?! ” I barked, feigning hurt. He seemed to be taken aback by surprise because he smiles. I gulped hard, waiting for the worst but he doesn’t do anything. He just stops and watched me, his smile widening.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

” I didn’t know you missed me so much, ” he said, advancing towards me again ” it’s only been three days. If I knew you’d miss me so much, I wouldn’t have left ” he said the last part into my mouth as he caged me between his wide body, his hand pinning me in place against the wall. I gulped again. I didn’t want him thinking that I missed his absence but if that would prevent any form of abuse from him, then I would definitely play along with this.

He lifts a hand and brings it up to my face, grabbing my chin. I winced in pain from the bruise I already have there from the punch I’d received earlier.

” Did you miss me so much that you couldn’t wait for me to return, instead breaking the rule of not stepping out of this house? ” He said angrily now, his palm now crushing my jaw.

I cried in pain and tried to push him away but instead he pins me further against the wall and quickly grabs my body, spins me around, pressing my face hard against the wall, my back pressed tightly against him.

” You dare try to run away from me?! ” He growled into my ear.

” I’m sorry ” I cried. The pain was too much and I didn’t know how much longer I could hold it in. ” Please…”

It felt like his hand was crushing my skull into the wall.

” To think I was beginning to trust you! I knew you were all fake, Layla! ” He screamed into my ear before grabbing me and turning me to face him again ” you know what? Why don’t I give you what you’ve always wanted? Killing you is too much of a mercy for you ”

He grabs me in one swift move and throws me over his shoulder. I cried, my voice fading by the minute as he makes his way down the stairs in one go, then through a hallway. My eyes were too streaked with tears to see where he was taking me until he was tossing me on a wooden chair and I looked around to see that he’d brought me back to the basement where I’d tried to escape through before.

I looked around, towards the small hole where I’d crawled out through to find that It had been cemented. There wasn’t a way out anymore. I felt my heart shatter.

” You think that I’m stupid, don’t you, Layla? ” Logan began as he paced the room ” you mock me don’t you? ”

I shook my head vigorously ” no, Logan, I don’t…”

” You do not speak when I speak!! ” He yelled, closing the distance between us and slapping me across the face. I felt the metal taste in my mouth and knew instantly that I was bleeding.

” I will kill you ” he said as he stepped away. The words seemed to have been forced out, like he wasn’t sure of what he’d just said.

My cheek stung as he landed a slap across my cheek, and I felt the urge to cradle it but I was too overwhelmed. This was the first time he was hitting me, the first time he was smacking me across the face. And it hurt differently.

Tears freely flow down my face. I tried to look back at him but I couldn’t. I couldn’t do that without crying all over again.

” Are you just stupid? What makes you think the world out there is better for you? ” He continues ” you’re such a fool, Layla. I dug out that hole for you and you took the trap like the stupid girl that you are. And now you’re going to pay for it ”

The pain was instantly filled with anger as the words left his mouth. He set me up and now he’s going to punish me for it? What kind of twisted psychotic mind did he have. I slowly looked up at him.

” You did this to me? You did this, left that key in there because you knew I was going to fall for it?” My voice broke as I asked him.

” I’m surprised you didn’t realize that sooner ” he spat out.

” You’re a monster ” I told him, fresh tears breaking down my face. ” I hate you ”

His lips lifts up into a smile and he walks closer to me, leaning down till he was at my face level and said ” oh there’s more to come, love, it would be too early to start hating me.”

I wanted to spit on his face but I knew that would be me preparing for my own death. So instead, I watched his eyes with all the hate I could muster.

He rises up and walks over to the other darker side of the room.

” You’ll never learn, ” he said as he turned around with a folded rope in his hands. Fear struck me as I saw the rope but I didn’t wanna show him that. Whatever he wanted to do, he should do it. At this point, I didn’t care if he killed me or not.

He walks over to the darkest part of the room, a much smaller room that seemed to be a storage for something small and tied the rope on a hook. He walks over to me and Yanks me to my feet before dragging me over. He straps the end of the rope over my clasped wrists. He tightens it further until I winced in pain. The distance between my hands even when stretched and the floor was much so I end up standing on my tip toes.

He smiles on my face and spoke ” I will let you out of here once you’ve learnt your lesson ”

And then he was out, slamming the door loudly behind him.

Then I let the tear slide down my face.
