Julianna.


    I walked with Flora carrying the dishes to the huge dining table. My eyesnded on Niki who’s walking down the stairs while typing something on his phone. No, Don’t look at him, My subconscious kept yelling inside my head. I refused to turn my head but from the corner of my eyes, I saw him pulling the chair out and sitting down.


    Bastard!


    Son of a bitch!


    Asshole!


    “Stop cursing me in your head and Serve,” he ordered while sitting, his lips curved in an arrogant smile.


    My eyes widened in shock and surprise, How did he know I was cursing him?


    I nced at him and noticed that damn smile on his face. Is he some kind of mind reader of something? I thought while swallowing hard.


    Jesus!


    I was quite nervous not because of fear but, I don’t know but Niki was making me feel nervous inside. I have to admit to a kind of sick fascination with him, perhaps I’m just curious. Before his arrival, I was normal, the atmosphere was normal but now, the atmosphere turned into electricity and there was a heavy silence.


    I took a pair of fish and ced it on his te, I was well aware of his gaze on me, it was so damn hard to believe that sinner wears such a gorgeous mask. My hands were shaking slightly as I served him dinner,


    “Flora!” He called all of a sudden making me jump back at his tone,


    I nced at him and saw him watching me, I noticed the corner of his lips slightly moving upwards. Is he smirking at me? I could feel anger and annoyance rising in me,


    “Go away,” He ordered like I was a pet, I clenched my jaw and ced the bowl on the table, ring at him and strolled out of there in anger. I could feel his gaze boring into my back but I cared less, I was pissed at him.


    Fucking Asshole, Who the hell does he think of himself?


    Die and rot in hell, Fucking dipshit!


    I wish I put plenty of pepper spray on that fish, You’re eating bastard. I so damn wish I would have done that.


    I climbed the stairs, literally stamping my feet on the floor and strolled straight to my room.


    Such an arrogant and annoying man.


    I hate him.


    I pushed the door open and strolled inside mming the door shut, I groaned in frustration while pushing my hair back. I walked towards the bed and sat on it, Calm down, Julia, I told myself while taking deep breaths.


    What does he gain by irritating me, Bastard?


    I wish I pepper-sprayed him more until he lost his sight, he deserves it.


    ***


    After cursing him nonstop, I ended up feeling bored and grabbed a novel from the bookshelves. I found myself sitting on my bed and reading it. All of a sudden, I felt kind of bored and closed the book.


    A thought of my family rushed to my mind and my chest tightened, my eyes burned. I know they wouldn’t worry about me or even give a damn about me being alive or dead but I miss them. I don’t know whether I will be able to see them ever again, I hope they are alright.


    I hate you, Niki Vasiliev.


    A knock on the door pulled me out of my thoughts, Flora walked inside with a tray filled with food. She smiled at me while walking inside which instantly changed my mood. She has something in her smile which gives a kind of motherly warmth.


    “You left without letting me know, so I thought to bring dinner to your room,” She said while cing the tray on the coffee table.


    “I didn’t want to stay there with him,” I replied honestly,


    “With Niki?” she asked,


    “Yep,” I replied,


    “Why? Did he say something?” she asked,


    “No, he’s just annoying,” I groaned, Flora chuckled at my words and handed me the te with food.


    “Thank you,” I said while taking and suddenly Ste rushed to my mind,


    “Did my friend–” she cut me off,


    “Yes, She had her Dinner,”


    “Thanks, Flora,” I smiled at her,


    “You’re wee,”


    While having dinner, I asked her about the Ind and she told me that this ce is the safest ce for them since Niki is a mafia don, they are under constant threat. The location of this ind is top secret and only Niki’s trusted people know about the location.


    “So he bought this ind just like that,” I widened my eyes,


    “Yes, He can afford it,” she shrugged,


    “Of course, he would, He’s a mafia don,” I rolled my eyes. Niki is a huge mystery to me and I find myself more curious to know.


    “Is his father a mafia don as well?” I asked, curious.


    Hearing my question, I feel the change in the atmosphere. Her smile faded and her gaze went t and hard, “Don’t talk about him,”


    I stared at her curiosity eating inside me, “Sore subject?” I asked,


    She nodded, “To answer your question, yes, Niki’s father was a mafia don… but I suggest you not mention Niki’s father in this mansion,” she said, her tone hard and sharp.C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.


    I nodded my head feeling slightly scared of her sudden harshness. For the next ten minutes while I was having dinner she didn’t speak to me at all, didn’t even look at me.


    ***


    Laying on my bed, My thoughts go back to escaping from this ind with Ste. I have survived one and a half days, alive in here and I don’t trust Niki, he’s a mafia don for god’s sake. The fact that he didn’t hurt me yet doesn’t mean anything. It’s just a matter of time before he does something truly awful to me or Ste.


    I need to escape from here before that happens to either of us. He’s dangerous and unpredictable.


    I need to find a way off this ind.
