◆ MILES ◆
Florence, Italy
"Quando penso che meno incompetente di così non si può essere..."
Thump.
Thud.
"Leo, w-we tried everything!" said a panicking British man's voice. "Gave them two times their cut!"
"Imbeciles!"
Bump.
Whack.
Glass shattering.
"I wouldn't— W-Why would I—"
"D'ora in poi, figlio di puttana!"
"Stop! No— Leo!"
More screaming.
Begging..
Glass breaking again...
Shit.
This might just be the worst time to shove fucking triplicates into the big bad wolf's face—especially if the latter's obviously busy schedule included closed-door "meetings" with his incompetent employees.
While my liquid courage shriveled into nothingness, I tensed up my leg to stop it from trembling beneath my ironed black slacks. The expensive scotch I'd downed on the drive here had

◆ MILES ◆ Brichese, Italy A house, a car, a career, a steady job that paid well, enough savings to let me live comfortably for another year... Not long ago, I rarely thought about those things for myself. Back then, I just couldn't care less. But, my parents were right. Like always. My young, stupid, carefree years were over. I oughta act like a man now. No more "trust fund kid" attitude. It was my own choice to quit the family business, and like my father said, renouncing my current job in the company would mean kissing my affluent future goodbye. No other choices, no considerations, no other compromise whatsoever. Take it or leave it. I chose the latter—only because my sanity was on the line. Pondering my existence after a job well done was one confirmation. SF Shipping would survive without me, since I was nothing but a glorified erran

◇ KEL◇ "We have to go." Niccolo stepped closer to hug me lightly."Where you going?" I muttered after the side of my face touched his neck. I pulled away and noticed his right hand still gripped his phone while his dark brows wrinkled in unmistakable annoyance.What exactly bothered him? Some angry mobster whose black books he might've dug up and e
The Heir's Secret Obsession 65 | Anxiety And Panic
◇ KEL ◇ "Hey. You alright?" I looked up and saw a mildly frowning Enzo approaching me with his main bodyguard, Berto. He was wearing the same sweater and pants, but his hair looked more tousled than I remembered. Enzo had only been gone for more than an hour. Perhaps he met up with one of his brother's business associates here in Serbia. Enzo never mentioned particulars and I felt like I shouldn't ask, either. "You look really pale," he commented once he got near enough to put his arm over my shoulder. "I just..." I leaned against the rental car he'd paid for. I probably did look like my entire face got drained of color. Undoubtedly, my anxiety was forming tighter knots in my stomach, threatening me to some extent. I might just spew my entire lunch meal if my thoughts got even more out of hand. As we stood in the restaurant's parking lot, his security detail guarded the perimeter, d

◇ KEL ◇ "Mykaela?" Light pats on my arm. Gentle shaking. Careful strokes on my head. "Lasciala riposare." "Perché vuole andare lá?" Enzo's voice.Wait... Am I still dreaming? Dazed from the last seconds of my much-needed nap, I laid my head still on a layer of clothes keeping my face warm and fuzzy. The caresses on my hair and the mild scent of men's cologne—Enzo's perfume—gradually cleared up the haze in my head. It left me slightly more conscious of my surroundings and the soft hum of the jet's engines. Enzo kept my curled up body close to his, the rough fabric of his shirt covering most of my face. So, we were still in the private jet, his older brother's new plane. I also fell asleep on Enzo's lap. At the thought, a warm tingling sensation crawled up my spine. We weren't alone. I knew the Tomassinis had strapped security staff right by their side all

It was all I could think of while trying to stay motionless on the ground. The ominous sound of the metal bolts locking from inside the room deflated every muscle in my body. Darkness had replaced my vision, cold sweat covered me from head to toe, and the inside of my chest was coiling from all the anxiety. Meeting Leandro Tomassini might just be the end of me. Now that he had thrown me into a cold and dark room somewhere in the basement, I didn't know what to think of my fate. Was he going to murder me now? Slit my throat open? Dump my chopped remains in the ocean? Leave me in a ditch somewhere on the island? My flesh had succumbed to a state of weakened numbness. The nervous aches and the trembling of my hands had subsided,
