I was woken up by someone breathing heavily in my ear, blinking my eyes open I looked at what the breathing was coming from.

I went from sleepy to wide awake in a matter of seconds, jolting up into a sitting position when I saw the man that was causing the heavy breathing mere inches from my face.

"What the fuck!"

He grinned at me evilly.

"Good morning Ms highland," he said taking a step back.

"Have you ever heard about personal space you creep!"

He chuckled, but it wasn't handsome and welcoming like most men in this house chuckled. It was chilling and evil.

"I suggest you leave here."

I frowned.

"Who are you to tell me what to do."

"Do you know what these people do to girls like you?" he said with a raised brow.

I paused.

"They get girls to like you and sell them off to the highest bidder, the girls that go into those things are never the same, they beg for someone to end their miserable lives," he said answering his own question.

Would Elias, Alessandro and Andre really do that?

"Your better off running away from here."

I frowned in deep thought. I didn't know these people well enough to know if they would really do those types of things, but then again this was a mafia. Who knows what types of bad things they did, but this creep could just be lying.

My frown disappeared as I looked at the unknown man.

"I'll have to give that a thought." I stood and walk towards the door which stood behind the man, but his hand quickly snatched up my wrist holding it in a tight grip, so tight I knew it would leave a bruise.

I winced as I looked up at him, but instead of the man, I saw Lucus.

I sat at the bar in the hotel Lucus and I was staying at, sipping on my margarita when a handsome blonde man came up to me and offered me a drink, I had politely declined, mentioning I was waiting for my boyfriend which he respected and left.

What I hadn't known was that Lucus had seen our interaction.

He came up to my hand grabbed my wrist in a grip so tight I thought my wrist might snap, I looked up at him in pain. I felt weak, knowing I couldn't do anything because if I did I would get more of a beating before being left on the street to rot and die.

"You slut. I leave you for a couple of minutes and you already have someone to fuck."

I frowned at him quietly wincing. "L-Lucas I would never cheat on you."

His grip only intensified as he hissed in my face. "lies." that's when he pulled me up and practically dragged me to our room, where he threw me on the bed, crawling on top of me he kissed my neck hard and painfully, his teeth scratching at skin.

In moments like these I was scared if he was going to rape me, but he never went that far which I was beyond grateful for. But I still absolutely hated him.

My heart beated rapidly as tears pricked my eyes, the same weak feeling I had whenever Lucas did this to me.

"If you know what's good for you, you would leave," the unknown man hissed in my face before throwing my hand at me and walking out of the room.
