The Devil's doll

Chapter 15

Vincenzo
Flashback
It was raining pretty heavy that day. I was sitting in the back of the car looking outside the widow. Watching her standing outside of her school. She didnt had an umbrella with herself waiting for the rain to end. I got out pluck the umbrella that the car has and started to approach to her. As I got close to Cecilia, she recognised me for far away and smiled at me.

How beautiful she is with that smile on.

"Vincenzo?" The smile never leaves her face.

"How are you Cecilia?"I asked

"Good. What are doing here?"

"I had my way to your house, need to speak to your father for an important business. But I saw you waiting outside your school. I cant let a young lady here all alone in the rain! Why dont I sent you back home?" I added reaching for her hand. She looks at me and politely takes my hand. I put an arm on her shoulder to stay close to me so the rain couldn't catch her.

"Thank you!" She said. I smile at her opening the door to get inside of the car.

On the whole ride I noticed her fidgeting with her hands while looking outside the window.

"How was school?" I tried to break the silence.

She turned her head to look at me.
"It was fine. Like always." She said.

"Does anyone bother you?"
She shakes her head of a way saying no.

"No. No one does. Even if they try, they are afraid to talk to me."I look at her confused.

"Why is that?"

"I hear them whispering and saying that my family are all criminals involved with mafia. And no one dares to even come up to me." She stayed a bit quite." Im not complaining about it. I like staying alone and enjoying my peace."

I keept my eyes on her all the time. Im really happy for her that shes fine and not bothered from anyone.

At that moment the driver stops at her house. Before she could get out I made sure to opened the door again for her. We got infront door and ringed the bell. I hear loud steps coming closer seeing her angry father opened the door.

"Where the hell were you? I sent out someone to get you and you weren't there..." he stopped talking by moment he saw me standing behind her. His face became white as a ghost.

"Im sorry dad...but Mr.Vincenzo offered me to take me home since he had to discuss with you."

His expression never leaves his face, locking eyes with mine. I couldnt stayed serious but smile at him.

"Its not nice to let your guests outside right? Mr. Moretti..." He steped a side to let us get inside, he started to sweat like a pig he is, gulping down, praying for his life.

I get down on one knee infront her.
"Cecilia be a good girl and go upstairs to your room. Me and your father need to discuss about something importanted." I say to her politely and brushing her face with my thumb. She gives a look to her father and made her way to her room.

I made sure to hear the door being shut before approaching to her father.

My eyes darken when they landed on him. Being so scared he backed  away from me and landed sitting on a chair. I place some papers on the table sliding infront of him.

"Me and my father agreed to something..." I still haven't said anything to him only for him to take out a napkin out of his suit to wipe the sweat.

"Anything...Ill do anything to pay my debt. Please just let me live." He begged. Almost felt like he was crying. What a pussy! Hes just a little girl. He may act tough infront women but if he faced a man, he almost shits himself. How does he consider himself as a man. So disappointing, ruining my fun!

I smile."I wasn't done talking." Giving him a death glare. "For an exchange of the money that you own us, I would like from you to sell your daughter to me. Sign these papers and she will be mine by the age 18. Do we have a deal?"

"Deal!" He said fast. Not thinking twice. That was surprisingly quick. It really ruined my mood. I had in mind so many things and threats to say if he declined. I can see his true colours now.

He looks at me and then the papers.
"You can have her when she turn 21. I want her to graduate university first... And then you can have her. I need someone to take over the my company." I had hopes that he would pass it to his son. Since he was disappointed that he left the family started to work for me.

I thought about it. I could wait a bit longer than that. I slide the pen for him to sign the papers.
A smirk sticked to my face as he slide back the sign papers. Perfect. I cant wait for her to me mine.

Befor I left, I made sure to say goodbye to Cecilia first. When I entered her room she was sleeping. A cozy bed and rainy day its the perfect combo to get a good sleep. I sat beside her, removed her hair out her face and placed a kiss on her forehead.

End of flashback

I explained everything to her the situation about how she was sold to me because of he fathers late payment, she didnt look happy about it.

"It cant be true! I know he didnt love me but not going this far!" She started to break down.

I know it was cruel from him. He wanted to save his ass and not think about anything else.

"Cecilia..." I whisper to get her attention.

"Please leave me alone! I dont want to talk to you!" She begged. She was going through lot of this. I understanded that and decided to respect her wish and privacy. I close the door behind me and ordered a maid to stand outside the door incase if she wanted anything.

I know it didnt end well for her. It was for her best.
