Bound by his darkness

Chapter 7: Caught

Katharina's POV

I am running late for my lecture. Mia and I slept late at night causing me to wake up late in the morning. The college is good and I have made few friends here since I am a transfer student it was hard to gel with already made groups but it wasn't a big problem for me because I don't interact with them often. Also, it's not like we are bff's.

Opening the lecture hall door I nod my head to the professor and headed straight to the bench at the back. "I thought you weren't coming" Chris whispered taping my shoulder. "I barely made it on time" I whispered back keeping my face straight.

It was 3:30 pm sharp when all of my lectures were over. I shared a few notes with Chris and gave him a good bye hug. Coming out of the college gate I crossed the road and I saw HIM. Vincenzo stood leaning against the Bonet of his Maybach Sleeves folded up as usual showing his damn veins.

I ignored him and stood a few feet away waiting for my cab, telling myself that he is not here for you so mind your business. I could see him walking towards me I held my guard, trying to be calm however all I think of the last time we met.

"So you're going to behave as if I don't exist" he stood next to me about a feet away I could smell his musky scent. I kept my head straight recalling my mind to ignore this handsome man who has anger issues and you don't want to be any near him. I have been avoiding all the chances to see him.

"Katherina, look I know I was rude the other day but my intentions were not to hurt you". His voice was polite. My cab just came at the right time and I sighed in relief. I made my way towards the cab opening the door but he held my wrist. "We need to talk" he looked at me with a serious face. "No, we have nothing to talk about" I said, not looking at him once. I tried getting in from the other door but he again grabs my wrist and pulls me towards him making me bump into his hard chest.

"We need to talk Katharina" I could see the patience slipping in his eyes. "Fine".
Soon we were sitting in his Maybach. I couldn't look him in the eyes, i don't want to. His intimidating eyes scare the hell out of me.

"Look I apologise if I hurt you tesoro" my heart skipped a beat at his deep voice. "I apologise for my behaviour the other day but you don't know where I was coming from" I kept listening to him keeping my head straight.
He leaned forward tilting his head to my level. "I can't tolerate another man near you" he said it so intently that made me snap my head towards him. His eyes were fixed on me as if trying to read my mind.

"I can see that you are shocked because of what I said but it's true, I have never apologised to anyone in my fucking life but the way you are behaving right now it makes me realise that I have done something really bad".

I looked away from him hoping that he let me out as soon as possible. Suddenly I felt his hand on my cheek pulling a strand of hair behind my ear. A Shiver run down my spine as I could feel the warmth through his hand. "You have no fucking idea what you have been doing to me from the moment I layed my eyes on you" a gasp left my mouth as I felt his fingertips at the back of my neck.

"I want you, tesoro" I looked at him in utter shock shifting in my seat backwards. He wants me? Like how? For what? What does it mean? "What do you mean?" I asked him wide eyed "I want you to be mine, mine to gawk, mine to devour, i want your laugh I want your tears, i want to be your pleasure and pain, i want to possess you in every way possible. How can he? He wants me to be his girlfriend? Ohh wait... Mia told he doesn't do girlfriends? Then why...I mean he doesn't know anything about me we bearly know each other. Also we are poles apart just look at him and look at me there is no match. And what does he mean by posses me every way?

He looked me in the eyes and said it again "I want you Katharina, it might sound a little absurd" he sighed "I want you so much that I was restless without seeing you this whole week, and yes I am sorry for my rude behaviour the other day but I was pretty serious about" he leaned back in his seat resting his head on the headrest "the you will let me know if that bastart comes near you part".

His change of tone gives me goosebumps, a minute ago he was telling me how much he wants me which gives chills down my spine and right now I can see the most violent expressions on this sulptured face. What is he? He get mood swings?

We were looking at eachother. I honestly don't want him to say any thing further I think I am done. I snapped my neck to the other side sighing heavily.

"Look I think you're mistaken, you can't just want me without even knowing me, a person who is a complete stranger. We have only met..." "Your name is Katharina Smith and your father is a management consultant he is currently in Chicago for work". My eyes widened in shock "You currently living with Mia however, you mother and sister are living in your old apartment. You are from a middle class family. Your mother is a homemaker and your sister studies at"... "How do you know so much about me? Have you spied on me?" I narrowed my eyes at him.

"As you said nobody can want a person who is a complete stranger so..." he smirked looking at me with pride. "But I don't know you at all" I reasoned, "I believe you know who I am & what I do so that is enough for you to be with me" I could hear the arrogance in his voice what does he think of himself? "You are unbelievable, you think knowing what you do and who you are is enough to be with someone? Well! It is not and I know who you are and that is a big differentiator". I stared at him disagreement written on his face. "Look, I don't want to sound rude but I think you have taken something wrong somewhere. Maybe you like me as person or something.. Which is also absurd because I don't believe it"... He suddenly put his finger on my lips making my mouth shut.

"First thing baby girl, I do not have any doubt about what I want, I have never had". He came closer, his face a few inches away from me, I could feel is breath fanning my face. "If I say, I want you that means I want you." I gulped as he looked at me sternly "and secondly, even if we don't agree on this I am not going to back down from getting what's mine" he dragged his finger from my lips and cupped my face with his palm rubbing my lip with his thumb never leaving my eyes "and you Tesoro are mine, like it or not" I left a heavy breath that I did not know I was holding as he let go.

I could not believe what he is saying. It's so difficult to digest how come all of a sudden I am his and even without my consent. I gotta get out of this car right now. "I-i want to go h-home". Even if I am not looking at him I now he is staring ohhh God help me I can't take it..he so intimidating he makes me so nervous.

"Not a problem I am dropping you, besides I expected you to tell me how much you want me. He smirked at devilishly. what am I suppose to say? I have nothing I mean just few minutes ago you almost threatened me and disrespected for not caring about my consent and now you expect me to tell him about me wanting him, hug? Are you even human? I don't want this man yes he is handsome and rich and all of that but he is a psychopath, he sacred he intimidates me as if he is a dangerous man.

"I jus-just want to go home I am late and you don't drop me I'll take a cab" me having eye contact with him is a joke I couldn't look at him in the eyes for more than 5 seconds, his stare is so calm and cold. "I said I am dropping you end of story baby girl, you have a lot to learn. So, here's the first rule never argue with me, since we have just started I am going to be polite but if you test my patience you will only be regretting your disobedience".

His eyes could tell me is not joking his threats are no joke cause I am beyond scared from this man. "So now, shall we?" Without any argument futher I node my head as he drove off to me home.
