The Mafia Choose Me

Cassandra's POV

"You are what I need"

"Do you think I'll let you touch me? I'll gladly live to die rather than giving myself again to you!"

Tanggap ko na yung kapalaran ko dito, kaya lalaban na ako. Enough for being weak. They'd abducted and suppressed my freedom and wala namang ibang way para makaalis ako dito kung hindi ang mamatay, so let it be that way.

" Try harming yourself then see how I will tackle you! " sa taas ng boses niya maaaring marinig siya ng ibang tao.

Kahit madilim na kitang kita ko pa din ang pagiging bloodshot ng kanyang mata, naglabasan din ang kanyang mga ugat sa leeg hanggang sa kanyang braso, and his fist was firmly close. His overall face was a threat that he'd again do something which I would suffer with.

"Don't you dare to touch me! Getaway!" I sobbingly shouted but he still tried to come near me.

Buong lakas ko siyang tinulak at mabilis na tumakbo papunta sa labas pero katulad ng dati he caught me. I forgot that a predator always catches his prey.

"Oh please! Leave me! Help me! PLEASE, SOMEBODY, HELP ME! I'M BEGGING! HELP ME!" I screamed for help but nobody showed up.

"What's wrong with you?!" he said. His strong arms crushing my delicate stomach so harshly that it hurt and I'm sure mag iiwan ito ng sugat. "Can't we talk like normal or will you continue acting like a dumbass kiddo?"

"You need to work on your communication skills along with your temper issues because someday, this might cost you bigger than you ever know," I say the truth to his face. He turned me around.

"And that's why I'm asking for your help, stay with me, love me and I'll be the one putting every luxury of this world under your feet" he whispered those words while brushing his fingers on my face, "Trust me, baby".

His eyes help some kind of hope but mo guilt which should've been there on top. He tried to manipulate me again.

"What about me? How will you pay back my virtue? Can you return me the peace, which you looted from me? How did you plan all of that or even did you?" sunod sunod na tanong ko sa kanya. His eyes had so many emotions wandering around in them.

I wish he feels that he made me go through.

Ang sunod na ginawa niya ay hindi ko inaasahan, lumuwag ang pagkakahawak niya sa akin at humakbang paatras mula sa akin para lumikha ng distansya. I backed off immediately where he knelt right in front of me, his eyes were closed as in he was recalling everything he made me go through.

I was numb to act straight according to the situation, hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko, but because I'm guilty I console him.

"Hey... Please get up" I mumbled, "Okay... I'm sorry for babbling rude questions, I didn't mean to hurt you... I'm insisting you get up, please?"

A little ray of light was beaming on him from the window while I was hidden in the darkness, all he did was catching my eyes. Tahimik lang siya hanggang sa gumapang siya papunta sa akin. He wrapped his arms around my hips and his face resting on my stomach.

He is needed, damn.

Wag kang ganyan Halter, baka mapatawad agad kita.

"Forget what I did, I'm asking you to trust me once. Please?"

I lost myself in this moment, lost that he hurt me or even though if doing so. His vibes were all pure of love and sincerity. I was loving the moment we were having. I deeply wished this time to stop but reality hit me.

My inner judge was asking me if kaya ko ba siyang patawarin at bigyan ng chance but scenarios were evidence of his cruelty pero sa isang banda, his love was enough to beat them.

My hand stroked his hair tenderly, I seized his head in my tummy to make him feel secure in my arms. This feeling was beautiful, a sense of protection was hitting me and maybe him too. He exhaled deeply like an innocent infant comforting in his mother's arms.

All of sudden, nakaramdam ako ng pag susuka kaya mabilis akong humiwalay sa kanya at tumakbo sa bathroom before I puked over the floor or in the worst case, on him.

It took me 2 minutes to stable myself. I was panting heavily that my senses noticed Halter behind me. Humarap ako sa kanya, he was covered with the worried and concerning expression: rubbing my back and telling me that I will be fine.

Sana nga.

Kumuha siya ng puting face towel at pinunasan ang aking mukha. Without uttering a single word, his hand buckled me around his arm, lifted me in bridal style, exited out the bathroom, and heedfully tucked up the bed. His sweet action had butterflies on my tummy.

He picked up his phone from his pocket and dialed a number in a hurry, "Female doctors in my room now"

Ano ba yan! Ang rude nito kahit kailan, he just didn't even wait for a reply.

Binalik niya ang kanyang cellphone sa bulsa and laid beside me, an arm angled upwards with a hand on the head: supported by his elbow, his other hand stroking my forehead, coming down to my cheek and here he cupped it with his sole hand. Nakatitig lang siya sa akin. He leans on my way, I gulped and prepared myself for a kiss, nakahinga ako ng maluwag ng sa noo niya ako hinalikan. It was a message of protection to my heart which I gladly accepted.
