HATE AND DESIRES (mafia enemies to lovers romance )

CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE

Vi's PoV:

I don't know how to feel.

I can't bring myself to believe the last few hours. I hope it just gets erased form my mind.

I could never have imagined. I feel betrayed.

But most of all I feel sorry. For myself for believing all these lies. I was too stupid. I didn't think to look at this a little deeper.
It all happened right under my nose.

Felicity was right. I was too caught up in my own responsibilities and complains that I couldn't see the real danger in front of me.

And here I am. Completely powerless.

It all makes sense. Only a man as influential as Dominic Forman could have managed to go untracked.

I'm still tied to the chair. No one has come in here since my talk with Felicity and Dominic.

I hope Alex heard it. But I also hope he didn't. This can't be easy. Especially for him.

Now he has to choose and I can't help but wonder what the possibility is that he chooses his father and lets me die.

It's certain that Dominic wants me for something. Or else I wouldn't be alive. Once whatever he wants is done. He'll kill me.

No one will be there to save me.

I can't help the tears that start to escape my eyes.

I've been here almost all night. I know it's daytime because of the light escaping from under the door. I couldn't even close my eyes for a second.

I need to escape. I've been trying to struggle out of these ties and my wrists have started to bleed. But I still can't get out of this.

If only.....

It's no use now. I'll have to go with them until I see an opening.

But from this revelation, I know for sure it's not going to be easy.

Suddenly the door opens. My eyes try to adjust to the light coming from the door and that's when I see Dan.

"I see you're awake." He says in a mocking way.

"I didn't sleep." I say bluntly.

"I know, I was watching you. Struggling like a mouse in a trap. Bleeding to break free." He says walking close to me.

Then his hand comes up to my face to touch my hair. I flinch.
"Don't touch me." I snarl.

"Oh don't worry, I'll do so much more. Once he's done with his plan, you're all mine to play with." He says with a creepy smile.

"What are his plans? Why are you working with him?" I ask him.

"Only I get to ask the questions." His tone changes.

"I'm not telling you anything. Once I'm free, you're the one I'm coming for first." I look him in the eyes. "I promise."

Then the bastard laughs. "That is if you escape. That's not going to happen. Who's going to save you? Your parents are dead, so he can't come in here like last time."

I fuming with anger. "Alex will come. He'll kill you all."

"You're so naive to believe that. Do you really think he'll choose you over his own father? God. Isn't this déjà vu? A few years ago you were screaming Mom and Dad and now it's Alex. It's almost funny." He scoffs.

He's not wrong. I look down.
I guess it really is hopeless.

"Why are you here?" I ask him.

"Why do you think? I'm here to ask questions. And you will answer them." He pulls out a knife.
