Mafia Vengeance (Dark Romance)
Mafia Vengeance Chapter 26

Slowly I opened my eyelids, only to be squeezed shut in pain. A searing pain radiated from my left shoulder. And a whimper left my mouth. I was in his room. He was not in the room. I looked down, and I was not in my previous clothes, instead I was wearing a loose black satin night dress. (Who changed my clothes?)

That thought immediately left my mind. When I touched my chest only to hiss in pain. I removed the dress slightly from my left shoulder until a bandage was visible to my sight. I touched it slightly only to feel sharp pain. The memories of yesterday came to my mind. Andrew has proceeded to brand his name on my skin. The pain was so much that I blacked out.

I saw my reflection in the mirror, there were fingerprints of his slap on my face. On my wrists and ankles there were dark red and blue bruises of the cuffs. I felt pain in my knees when I was walking and found a bandage on my knees. Then my eyes landed on the bandage on my chest.

I wanted to scratch his name off my skin. But I can't even properly move my left arm or shoulder without feeling excruciating pain.

He is a monster. How could someone be this cruel, he has no right to mark me...he reduced me into a mere property. What did he want to accomplish by branding me. He violated me. I felt disgusted. I never hurt anyone then why is he doing this to me.

I saw a tray of food on the bed side table along with the pain killers and a glass of milk. I sat down and ate everything thing because I was feeling so weak. After that, I laid on the bed, while tears streaming down my face. How can my life become this pathetic on the mercy of the monster.

No one was born evil, what happened to him that he became like this and is inflicting so much pain on me. If he continued like this, then he will probably kill me one day.

Andrew POV:

Past......

"A-Andi... I want to eat our favouuuuriiiteelemoooon rashpbeurry cakeuu for the laaast time pleaseuuee." Lucy spoke in her childish voice.

"Don't say last time luci. We will eat it every day, when you'll be discharged." A young Andrew spoke.

Tears were streaming down his face by listening to his sisters words. He felt so helpless at that moment he held his sisters hand and kissed it, and also kissed her forehead, both eyes and cheeks, and she giggled.

"No princess you are not leaving me OK. And I'll bring that lemon raspberry cake. And then we'll both eat it OK. Love you princess." Andrew spoke.

He kissed her forehead, but he didn't know that it is for the last time..........and he left the hospital to full fill his sisters wish.

Present.....

That cake brought those memories back.

I shouldn't have done this. Her teary face came to my mind. She need gentleness, and I am unknown to such emotions. She is made for love and I only knew force, power and authority. She is fragile and I'm a beast. This society made me like this. Where she slept on soft bed, I slept on the road. Where, she ate healthy food. I ate only stale bread. Where she had everything, I had to work hard to earn where I'm today. My world is cruel and tough for her.

She wanted to run away from me. I won't let that happen. I don't care on what circumstances I married her. But now she is my wife. She belongs to me now. She will stay with me forever either by her own will or by force. I will not let her go... Never....

I wasn't planning on branding her. But she pressed the buttons of my anger. I was already angry because of that cake. And then her outcome of running away, slave and property all that shit just pissed me off.

When she said she will run away from me and will never come back. That particular thing angered me. How can she think like that.

(she thinks like that, Because you behave like bastard towards her) my inner conscience spoke.

I felt pang of guilt for doing this to her But I will not show her and definitely I will not apologize. So she will never ever think of running away from me. I can't hurt her anymore... But she doesn't have to know this. Chloe POV:

I was sitting in my room when I heard a knock. Then Eli came in.

"Boss is calling you downstairs for dinner." Eli spoke.

"Huh!"

(That ugly sick man has the audacity to call me for dinner after doing this.)

Eli spoke again. "He is calling yo-"

I cut her off by saying.

"Tell him I'm not coming. He may go to hell." I hissed.

"Really!" His deep voice spoke.

I turned towards the door so fast that I was about to crack my neck. There stood the devil while smiling (oh so softly) and all I felt was fear and disgust towards him. And unintentionally I took a step back. It didn't go unnoticed by him. With his fingers he waved at Eli to leave, who left quietly while closing the door.

"Why are you not coming for dinner?" He asked.

Why is he behaving like nothing happened as if he didn't just freaking branded me yesterday. The audacity of this bastard.

"Why are you behaving like nothing happened. How could you be so cruel, that you branded me like animals. Your sick psychopath... I HATE YOU." I yelled.

His face darkened, he clenched and unclenched his fists. And came in front of me, I took a step back and met with a wall while tears were rolling down my face. He came closer and said.

"Now I wouldn't do that if I was in your place." He warned.

With that he touched my face and wiped my tears and I flinched. He then holds my hand.

"Come lets have dinner." He spoke.

"I don't want to eat with you." I muttered.

Andrew mused. "I didn't ask you. I told you."

"But I said I don't want to eat with you." I mumbled.

"Fine then..." He muttered and left my hand and I thought he would leave. But instead he picked me up bridal style and started walking towards dinning hall. I struggled but it was hurting my shoulder, so I stopped. His musky masculine scent filled my senses and it stirred something inside me.

He sat on the chair,when I was about sat on the chair he holds my right arm and pulled me towards him and I landed on his lap with a gasp. As I was about to stand, but he encircled his arm around my waist. "Sit here." He spoke.

"N-no-"

He cut me off by putting his fingers on my lips. I turned my face on the other side. He then brought the spoon full of rice near my mouth. But I kept my mouth shut. My eyes widened the next moment when he nuzzles his face in my neck, he inhaled there then bit my earlobe and a yelp left my mouth. I started to squirm, but he held me tight and spoke.

"Eat the food. Or else I will eat you."

He said all this while nibbling my earlobe. I quickly nodded. And he chuckled. My cheeks are bright red now. He kept feeding me and himself with the same spoon. He then made me eat pain killers. And picked me up bridal style and took me to his room.

I panicked, but he gently laid me down on the bed. Then I spoke.

"I-I don't want to sleep h-here." I mumbled.

"From now on you will sleep with me." He stated.

He said while removing his shirt and giving me terrifying news.

"W-what... N-no... I -" I paniced.

"Shhh sleep now." He soothed.

I avert my gaze from him when removed his shirt, and he cut me off mid sentence by putting his hand on my lips. I know arguing with him is of no use. So I move to the end of the bed and laid down. I felt the bed dipped from the other side and his arm wrapping around my waist, and he pulled me in his embrace. I squirm in his hold, and he nuzzles his face in the crook of my neck. And I stopped struggling.

Andrew mumbled. "Sleep love."

Why is he behaving nice all of a sudden. Does he feel guilty but he didn't apologize. I didn't saw any expression of remorse or guilt on his face. Then why showing concern towards me. I can't understand what's going on in his head. With these thoughts I drifted off to sleep.
