Katilia POV
Run. Run harder! I pushed myself to the brink until I thought I would pass out. I could hear him getting closer. Running around the corner of an old building in town I slammed into a hard chest. falling back on my butt I looked over to see my Uncle smiling evilly. I felt hands picking me up and I instinctively curled myself into their chest. "P-please", i stuttered crying into the chest. I heard my uncle's footsteps get closer. "You bitc-". He stopped and looked up at the person I was clinging to as if my life depended on it. I sneaked a look at him and fear was etched on his face. "I suggest you turn and leave", the deep voice said wrapping an arm around me, pulling me close. My uncle's eyes showed surprise and then he hesitantly turned and ran. I heard a deep chuckle as I buried my head in the chest. I looked up and saw deep brown eyes glaring down at me. I gasped as I realized who I was holding onto. Dominic Dario. The Italian Mafia Boss.
Dominic POV
I had just walked out of one of my many clubs when a small human being came running around the corner and ran into me. At first I thought it was a child. Until I saw her land on her butt and look back where she came from. I looked down, annoyed at the girl for being so clumsy. Reaching down I pulled her back onto her feet, but I didn't expect her to cling onto my shirt. "P-please", I heard her stutter. Confused I looked down at her trembling body. She was short with brown hair. For some reason I found myself wondering what her face looked like. Her body was covered in to large clothing and she smelled as if she hasn't taken a bath in days. I was starting to wonder why she seemed so scared. "You bitc-" came from around the corner and then I caught sight of a man wearing dirty clothes as well. He stopped as soon as he saw me. He's the reason she's scared. I looked down and saw faint bruises on her arms. He's hurting her. Anger flared through me and i wrapped a protective arm around her. I glared at the man standing before me. So help me God if he hurt her I will have his head. Fear was evident in his eyes and I simply said, "I suggest you turn and leave". He nodded and turned to leave. Then he ran. Looking down at the small woman in my arms she buried her head in my chest. I chuckled and she hesitantly looked up at me. Her eyes a beautiful shade of blue, full lips and a button nose. She had a cut above her eyebrow and her lip was busted. A bruise covered her right eye and she seemed so scared. I heard her gasp. She knows. She started to back up but I found myself wanting to hold her longer. What? Where the hell did that come from? I let her go and she stumbled back. One of my men stepped out of the club behind me and looked at the girl. Anger was on his face. "There a problem boss"? "No. But we're taking this one with us", i said looking at her shake. Fear was in her eyes as she started to cry. I felt my resolve falling but I quickly covered it up. Picking her up bridal style I crossed the street to our car. Placing her in the back I climbed in the passenger side. I took one glance back at my captured little beauty. She looked away and leaned against the window, slowly falling asleep. Curiosity ate at me the whole way back to my place. Why was she running from the man? Why was he chasing her? Who is she? I vowed I would soon find out who my little sleeping beauty was.
And then she'll be mine.
