Wicked Games

Giovanni grabs my hand as if trying to hold it, I don't let him. He stops right in front of the office door before looking down at me.

' You don't have to like this little fox.. But it's in your best interest to not play your childish games. '

' You can hold me hostage but don't you dare think I'll force myself to play along  or play happy for you. We both know I don't like you so don't kid yourself. '

I growl. I watch as he raises a brow before he licks his bottom lip and responds.

' You don't have to like me little fox but you will respect me. '

He growls back at me. I roll my eyes and go to push past him before he grabs my arm hard enough to stop me in my tracks.

' You like playing with your life don't you Novalie? Don't let your false sense of resilience fool you into making a fatal mistake darlin '

' Hm L'ombra or death.... What's the difference? '

I say antagonistically. I really don't care about anything except trying to make my great escape. He smirks and let's out a low chuckle.

' You ask around and there is none so watch yourself love '

And once again he grabs my hand and I hold it loosely, following behind him like a sad lost little puppy. Having no choice. I either let him have me or lose my life easy enough right?

He walks us towards the entrence doors, as we walk out I notice Benny isn't there but instead is a blacked out RR Cullinan in his place, Big Ben steps out and I let out a shaky breath. Of course, I think to myself.

Ben opens the back door as Giovanni helps me inside as he follows behind me, I scoot all the way over to the other side. As I watch Ben shut the door and walk over to the driver's seat and climb in before asking ' Where to boss? '

' Home '

Is all Giovanni says and we're off. Giovanni puts up the privacy window as he checks his phone for a minute before setting it onto his lap.

' Does Niko know I'm not going back? '

' Yes '

He growls, almost sounding annoyed.

' What exactly do you want from me Gio? '

' Everything little fox. Especially this '

He places an open palm on my stomach and rubs it in place..

My eyes go wide as I realize just what he means..

' Abso-fuckin-lutely not. That's never going to happen '

I say venomously. His light laugh infuriates me to the point I wish I could just hit him.

' I won't do it Giovanni and you can't make me. '

' Keep telling yourself that little fox. You don't have a choice remember? '

He takes his hand back and rubs his jaw before saying something I wasn't ready for..

' You should be thanking me.. I'm saving you from a coke fiend with a nasty whore habit.. '

He softly grabs my chin tugging it until I'm looking at him before he finishes.

' He could've done a lot of damage with his infidelities. You deserve better, And I plan to be that for you little fox. I'd never step out on you.. I've waited years just for you. '

My heart hurts, from the truth in the reality I was forced to see. He's not wrong, He could've done a lot of damage sleeping around. I pull my head back and look down as I cross my legs and sulk.
