From Heart With Hate

It Hurts Like A Bitch

"Hello, 113 ?"

"Yes"

"I-I have been held hostage; I'm Caterina Angelo from Milan. "

"Where? What's the name of the person ?"

Name? What is his name? DAMN, I never got to know that.

"I-I don't have his name."
I mentally cursed myself for being this stupid.

"Where are your exactly ?"

"I don't know they brought me here; I was unconscious."

"Ma'am, we need to know where you are. Can you turn the device's location ?"

"Yes, okay "

I was about to turn the location, but suddenly I felt a hand gripping my waist from behind while holding a hand against my mouth tightly, making the phone fall on the floor.

I struggled a little, trying to make some noise, but he didn't let me.

"Hello ?"

"Hello ?"

I kicked him hard, groaning in pain, and crawled towards the phone, but the officer cut the phone when I was about to talk.

"Fuck No !" I yelled while pulling my hair in frustration.

I turned around slowly to see him standing tall behind me.

"Aw, princess, are you pissed ?" There was a smirk on his face.

I was about to get up, but he pushed my chest harshly, making me fall to the floor back again.

"Did you seriously think you will attack a housekeeper, steal her phone and I will not know? "

He hissed as he gripped his hands on my neck, holding it tighter, making me unable to speak.

"Let..me..g—" I could feel my eyes moving towards the back of my head.

"Let me show you how to do this the hard way."

He held my hair and pulled me up, making me cry in pain.

"You are hurting me !" I screamed.

"This not called hurting, sweetheart."

With that, he dragged me out of the corridor while tightly gripping his hands around my hair.

"Let me go, asshole."
My head was hurting badly because of his tight grip.

"Shut the fuck up ", he growled.

" Where are you taking me ?" I said while pushing him away with all my strength.

Suddenly pushed me inside a room; it was dark and very different from the one I was staying in.
 
He closed the door behind him.

"W-Why are you closing the door ?" I panicked.

He went towards the table and picked a small cigarette piece from the ashtray.

"What are –"

At that moment, he looked furious. I hurriedly ran near the door to escape, bu,t he gripped my ankle and pushed me to the floor.

"Now you see, I will make it easier for you to remember not to attack my staff and steel things around my house."

"I didn't –"

"Shhh, baby, it's not your turn to speak,", He said while placing a finger over his lips.

He held my right hand and shoved the cigarette into my palm, making me cry badly in pain.

"Now, this is the time to speak."

No words escaped my lips; the pain was too much. I couldn't think straight. I couldn't move because of the weight with which he hovered over me. I just wanted to set free and get out of his sight.

I shook my head continuously in the hope that he would stop. But he didn't. He kept on burning both of my palms.

"N-No, please, please, LET ME Go..." I cried out in intense pain.

After about 5 minutes, he got up and began to smoke the remaining cigarette.

"Now stand up and go straight to your room; I must not see you wandering around."

I immediately got up and went towards the door. Even though my hands burnt like hell, I pressed the nob and escaped that monster's grip.

I ran to my room. Suddenly I fell on a hard masculine shoulder, making me lose my balance.

But Tristano held my waist and prevented me from breaking a bone or two.

"Caterina ?"

He held my hands to make me stand and wince in pain. His eyebrows frowned.

"What's wrong?"

He noticed my burnt palms.

"Did he do that ?"
I nodded while whimpering in pain.

"I told you not to do anything stupid, didn't I ?."
He murmured and took me to the room.

After a few minutes, he returned with a first aid box and a candy.

"Does it hurt too badly ?" He looked concerned, or maybe I had gone mad.

"It hurts like a bitch ." I mumbled, making him frown.

"Attacking Luna for the phone was a foolish thing to do, by the way." He said while applying an ointment on the wounds.

"It's not like I had an option."

"You don't have any option; You can't escape from here, Caterina."

I took my hands away from him immediately.

"I CAN'T JUST SIT IN THIS ROOM WAITING FOR THE DAY HE KILLS ME FOR SOMETHING I DON'T EVEN KNOW ."

He closed his eyes in frustration and spoke after a moment.

"All I can say is don't try silly things, he is my closest friend, and I know him; he won't let you live peacefully if you try to piss him off."

"Why are you even his friend? He is a fucking monster." I scoffed.

"Niccolò can go a little overboard sometimes, but he is the only real friend I have in this mafia world; I am the only one he trusts." He smiled.

The only one he trusts? 

______

It's been almost three days since I have been locked inside the room. Luna is still the maid who attends to me, I apologised to her, but she wasn't exactly pleased. One thing is for sure this house's maids aren't going to trust me anymore.

After a lot of thinking and overthinking, I came out with an insane plan, it is going to hurt a little, but I think it will work just fine.
