Mia’s pov As I carefully climbed down the stairs, I made sure to be as quiet as possible. It’s past midnight and I’m currently creeping towards the kitchen because I couldn’t ignore the hunger pangs any longer.The last meal I had was the one Lorenzo had forced me into accepting, right before the weird encounter between us had taken place. After I fled the sitting room once I was able to; I made sure to remain in my bedroom throughout the rest of the day, because I didn’t want to come across Lorenzo no matter what. The large wall clock in the sitting room clearly read 12:26am.It’s quite late, and I’d have been fast asleep by this time on a normal day.As I made my way into the kitchen, my stomach began to growl at once. I knew there wasn’t any snack or easily prepared food laying around in the kitchen, I can tell because I’ve thoroughly turned the kitchen around the two times I had been forced to prepare breakfast. The only reason I’m here right now, is because I had hop

Mia’s pov When Lorenzo came down for breakfast, he barely glanced at me twice, and I wasn’t sure of what to make of that.The fact that he isn’t paying attention to me right now is supposed to feel relieving and pleasant, which is why I’m unable to place my finger on the meaning of the weird feeling bubbling in the middle of my chest.It’s been two days since I last set my eyes on Lorenzo.The last time we both saw each other was that night in the kitchen when he had returned from somewhere in the middle of the night, whereby I had made myself a bowl of cereal after being unable to fall asleep on an empty stomach.The days that had followed that midnight, I had been glad that Lorenzo hadn’t come to call on me to come prepare food for the both of us, and I had been pleased that he left me to myself. I spent those two days eating snacks and food that didn’t require me to turn on the gas.I had thought that was how I was going to be living the rest of my life seeing as he left to

Mia’s pov Once the dress pooled around my feet, it took a few moments for me to step out of it because I was trying to get my bearings together. My heartbeat has accelerated and my face felt hot enough to fry an egg due to how much mortification I’m currently feeling.I could feel Lorenzo’s eyes on my back, on the curve of my ass in the flimsy underwear I had worn beneath the dress. I hadn’t worn a bra underneath the dress, which is why I’m still yet to turn around to face him.I swallowed emptily while wondering if he expects me to turn around and walk over to the closet with my chest completely bare while he’s in here right now, but as the train of thought was still going on in my head, the sound of his footsteps retreating echoed around the room, tugging me out of my thoughts at once.Next, I heard the familiar sound of the closet getting opened and I felt a weird feeling settled in my stomach at the thought of Lorenzo finding what he wants me to wear tonight by himself.Becau

Mia’s pov Lorenzo tugged the dude who had been trembling in his seat in front of us and asked that he say his last words, right before he shot him at the side of his throat. At this point, everything had scattered completely and blood was splattered on the front of Lorenzo’s white undershirt. At that point, he had already killed over five people, and I could barely suck in a deep breath without trembling in fear while still curled in my seat and taking everything in all at once with wide eyes.I had almost gotten shot at once by a dude who began to shoot back at me, but Lorenzo hurled me out of the chair and pinned me against his side as he emptied his gun in the person’s chest, grip tight around me. “Get my other gun out from underneath my shirt, the left part.” He ordered urgently as he moved us sideways and shot at a dude that was about to reach for his gun which had fallen from his hand after Lorenzo had shot it. My entire body was trembling in fright and my head felt woozy fro

Lorenzo‘s pov At first, I hadn’t realized it was in that direction that I was driving in, until I was almost there, was when it dawned on me that I had began to drive towards there without even realizing it.As I exited the meeting office, a lot of thoughts filled up my head at once, and even though I hated to admit it, I had actually taken what Drake had said to heart a little. When he had said people might see me as weak for not killing her yet.I knew it was fruitless for ne to attempt considering killing her niw, cause deep down, I knew I won’t end up doing it. Thinking about her large green eyes blinking up at me right now was enough to remind me that there was no way in hell I’d be able to actually kill her.So many thoughts ran through my mind as I left the building in my car, and as soon as I began to drive, I hadn’t realized where I was heading to, until a few minutes ago.I was driving towards my childhood home.The house where I had grew up in. The home where I had
