"Come over here" he boldly beckoned his finger.
I lowered my gaze to the floor and hesitantly walked towards him and stood in front of his desk.
He got up from his chair and walked towards me, I didn't raise my head until he grabbed my chin up. And that was enough for me to raise the flag of surrendering to his eyes.
He stared deep into me, I started thinking about all the dirty things that are going to happen when he said punishments blame it on BDSM books.
"Bring black coffee for me"
Wai fort What ?...
Wait why I am disappointed?
I shake all my thoughts and nodded, quickly ran towards the elevator.
The elevator stopped at floor 75 with a cheerful ding.
I stepped outside and I have no idea where was the cafeteria
Searching for it, I bumped into someone's hardback.
"Hey, what the fuck," said a man in a black shirt.
he was tall, blonde, manly, and handsome.
"I'm so sorry I didn't notice you I'm so sorry"
"No no it's ok, btw I'm Niall woods" he offered his hand towards me.
"I'm Vanessa foster, nice to meet you "
"Finally, you met her"
Someone from behind said.
Then I saw that the receptionist was coming toward us.
"She is the new personal assistant Mr. Francisco "
She said to Niall looking at me and smiling.
"Oh, really?"
"Yes"
"What are you doing here," the receptionist asked me.
"Mr.Francisco wants black coffee, so I was searching for cafeteria but I couldn't find it "
"It's at the corner over there," she said.
"Oh.. thank you"
"Btw I'm Alice swan, Nice to meet you"
"Nice to meet you too, I need to rush now or else I will be late bye " I started walking towards the cafeteria.
"She's cute,"
"Yea, she's cute"
I heard them saying.
I reached Cafeteria
My jaw dropped looking at it.
It's a huge Cafeteria, I walked inside and took a cup and muffins.
I quickly reached the elevator stepped inside pressed the button and reached the floor.
I walked toward the officer and knocked on the door
"Come in,"
I stepped inside the office walked towards the desk and kept the black coffee on it.
"Here, sir,"
He didn't say anything, he just kept his head as he looked over the documents on his desk.
"Mr. Francisco," I said biting my bottom lip.
"Enzo... call me Enzo when No one's around " he stated, never looking up.
"Ok, Enzo "
"Hmm?" Still looking at papers
"Would you like to have a muffin, sir, I thought ma....."
He cut me off "chocolate?"
"Yes" I smiled and gave it to him
He picked up the muffin and took a bite.
"I need you to go through all of my emails and set up my schedule and calendar "
"Yes sir"
I walked out and took a deep breath.
I relaxed a bit and walked toward my office.
Finally, after running here and there at last now, I can actually see my office.
I went inside my office my jaw literally dropped, It was beautiful The ceiling windows, the interior was the same as his,
Cabinets, couches, mahogany desks, and everything are white ceilings, floor, and walls.
He already set it on my desk with a computer, printer, phone, and a Calender.
I walked over to put my handbag down which was still with me all this time and set my things down on my desk and pulled the chair out to sit. It was comfortable to spend a large amount of time with my ass planted in it.
I took the files which were on the desk, took my notebook, and started reading them carefully and making notes of them. It took all my energy to complete them.
I quickly stood up took my book with me and started walking toward his office
I knocked on the door.
"Come in" with Stern voice he said, I stepped inside
"Miss Foster, next time don't knock just come in"
"Okay sir"
"I read those files and wrote these notes sir please check them once"
I put it on the desk, and he instantly took it and started checking them.
"Please take a seat, Miss Foster"
"Please call me Ven or V or Ness..." looking at him I quickly shut my mouth
"Call me whatever you want sir"
Fuck that came wrong,
I looked away.
I mentally facepalmed at my stupidity.
"I will call you Venessa, I like it.. it's long, deep, and unique"
"That's fine, Lorenzo"
I said in my low voice.
Suddenly he slammed the book on the desk and walked toward me.
I quickly stood up from my chair
We were almost chest to chest Or rather head to the chest as I had to look up at him.
"Say it again," he said in a low voice that gives me Goosebumps,
I'm confused, say what?
"Lorenzo?" I asked, but it came out like a moan.
I was backing up, but forgot that there was a chair and about to fall but a strong arm cached me around my waist and my hands were on his chest
We were so close to each other, Looking into each other's eyes.
I don't know for how long we were like that, I could feel my heart slamming against my ribcage. My eyes lowered to his lips and I couldn't but wonder what It would be like if he leaned down a little bit, I just wondered what it would be like to kiss him.
But it would never happen Men like him never kisses a girl like me.
Out of Nowhere, I remember that kissing scene at the restaurant, him kissing some women.
I pushed him but he didn't budge he tightened his arm making every part of my body touch his.
"Enzo ...., Please leave me ..... I...I.I ...have....w... W...work...to do....s..sir"
"Kiss me"
I looked at him
"I'll not leave until you kiss me"
He said with an intense stare, I don't know what to do in that situation.
It's not like I don't want to, I want to kiss him but I can't do that.
I gathered up some courage and slowly lifted my head and looked at him.
" I..I..I.." I stuttered
" If you don't kiss me in 10 seconds I will kiss you "
I started panicking,
"10 "
Fuck he started.
" 9 "
Ah
What should I do?
" 8 "
Oh, God!
" 7 "
" I..i..i "
" 6 "
" I ..ca..."
"5 "
"I.. can't..."
"4"
"Wait "
"3 "
"I can't reach you "
I shouted, out of panic.
Bending over he continued,
"2"
I quickly kissed him on his left cheek.
"1" he ended
"That was clever" smirking, he said,
I looked at him confused.
"I asked to kiss on my lips but instead you kissed on my cheek "
I flushed and lowered my gaze,
Chuckling he released me and walked back to his chair.
" The notes are good, did you check everything properly "
"Yes," I said confidently.
"Good, Now pack up, we shall have dinner together "
I was about to say No but he cut me off saying.
" It one of the punishments for coming late today "
I shut my mouth and quickly
I walked into my office.
Took my things came out, he was waiting outside. We both stepped into the elevator.
On the 75th floor, the elevator stopped, doors opened and Niall stepped inside.
Looking at me he smiled,
" Hi, Ness "
looking beside me he dropped it and stepped beside me when I side glanced at Enzo. he was glaring at Niall. If looks could kill, Niall would be dead right now.
The temperature was hot in here I was literally sweating although there was an air conditioner in the lift.
No one spoke anything
I looked at the display its show 21st floor.
20 Fucking floors
After What felt Eternity we reached the ground floor
Elevator doors opened Niall was Frist to step out,
Enzo grabbed my wrist and started dragging me towards the parking lot.
Everyone was looking at us
I hate attention.
After reaching his car
Enzo opened the door, I was hesitating to get in.
" If you don't get inside in 2 seconds, ill lift you up and put you inside "
I quickly got inside, he slammed the car door which made me flinch a bit.
He climbed inside and started the engine.
What made him this angry
He's scary, he always radiates Dominance. He had that kind of take-charge, no- bullshit attitude.
In my 18 years, I never meet this intense man before.
Suddenly my phone started ringing,
I quickly opened my bag and took my phone, I didn't check who was calling I just clicked the volume button which made it go into silence. I glanced at Enzo, he was deep in thought and unbothered.
I turned,
When I saw who was calling,
Every part of my body started shaking heavily my hands started sweating.

No...No....this is not happening, what should I do, How did he find me......
I was panicking, I tried to control myself but I couldn't.
I didn't pick up the call, I just switched off my phone.
Vanessa calm your nerves he can't find you, cool down, I said to myself.
I closed my eyes and took deep breaths, 15 min later, I was feeling okay.
I opened my eyes and relaxed a bit, I glanced at Enzo he was still unbothered.
Looking at him calmed down a bit.
I have this feeling about him that I could not explain its like
His attitude, dominant behavior and that unbearable intimidation whatever it is, drawers me to him. By looking at him you can say he is a kind of a person who can make people kill themselves by just looking at them.
His features are sharp, dark, and mysterious. While I was thinking about him I glanced at his hands which are gripping the steering wheel. His knuckle turned into white and I noticed there were so many tattoos on them. How come I didn't notice them before,
His nerves were popping up and
Tattoos on his fingers speak of trouble, on his left hand's little finger, has a skull and thick arrow with star lines inside and at the corner " blame "was written in beautiful curving writing.
On the other finger, there was a big thick scissor and at the left corner of the finger, there was "hate "written in block letters.
The middle one has feature dripping black dots below it was eye-catching and beautiful, at the left corner of the finger "love" was written in cursive writing
On the other there was nothing on it, it was empty without a single tattoo
On his thumb, there was a cross symbol that was long, thick, and highlighted.
On his right hand, there was a single letter on each finger that spells " fear " it was written beautifully and at the tip of the fingers, there was water drop, king crown, Music, dollar symbols they were beautiful to look at.
And on his right wrist, there was a tattoo started with a single bent feather as I looked up it disappeared in his shirt sleeves.
My curiosity for it has raised a bit I want to see what's under that sleeve.
Then suddenly the car stopped, I looked at my surroundings and noticed we were at "Angelo"
It's an Italian restaurant and very expensive.
I have never been there before only heard that it's very expensive and only rich people come here.
He opened his seat belt and stepped out and I started to open my seatbelt.
Enzo opened my door and offered his hand, I looked at him and he has a stoic face I sighed,
I took his hand and we walked towards the entrance he put his hand on my back and guided me.
He gave keys to a man there and told him to park it,
We walked inside and half of the staff walked us and greeted us.
I can see the fear in their eyes for Enzo, they guided us towards a separate cabin.
when I entered inside and I was mesmerized by it. There was a table and chairs which were very neatly kept and a beautiful painting on the wall was beautiful I can't take my eyes off it.
It has a man hugging his women possessively and a woman was resting her head on his chest it was very beautiful.
"Your older please " came a waitress ogling at Enzo moving her chest up Abit it was disgusting to look at.
Enzo behaved like it was Normal for him, she ignored me completely.
I had never eaten Italian in my life, I was waiting for Enzo to order as he heard me he ordered something I didn't even understand.
I was staring at him wanting to start a conversation but I don't know what to talk With little courage,
"Enzo?"
He looked at me,
"Is everything alright? "
He tilted his head sideways and asked
"Why do you ask? "
"You look upset," I said in low voice.
"Because I'm"
"Can I ask why?"
"I don't want you to talk Niall "
That was blunt
I was a bit shocked.
"Can I ask why?"
"No"
Its kinda rude
"Ok," I said, I don't want him to be angry, it scares the hell out of me.
He was surprised by my answer,
But quickly covered it.
A waitress came inside and started serving us
We silently ate our dinner.
I opened my purse there was cash and was enough for my meal.
A waitress came inside with a bill, I quickly opened my purse to pay,
"Close it,"
I looked at Enzo
"I'll pay," he said with authority in his voice.
"No.no I'll pay,"
"Vanessa, I said I'll pay "
"Enzo, I said I'll pay "
"No, I'll pay "
"No, I 'll pay "
He looked at me and smirked at me
"Do you want me to kiss you, here "
I blushed hard, lowered my gaze, And didn't say anything.
After paying the bill we reached his car.
He opened the car door, I climbed in.
He climbed in and started the engine, He was smiling all this while.
I was annoyed by his smile,
"Stop smiling, Enzo "
I said in an angry tone.
"What's funny?"
"What's funny? "
"You face, it was red like tomato"
He started laughing louder.
"You should not say those things outside," I said shyly
"If it makes you like that I will say a lot more things than that "
My face must be a darker shade of red by now.
He stopped the car I looked at him confused.
He gestured me to look at something with his thick eyebrows.
When I saw it, it was my house.
I turned at him, smiled
"Thank you for dropping me, Enzo, Good night"
"Good night Venessa " he smiled at me
I got out and walked towards my home, I turned around and waved at him.
He waved back.
I opened my main door and entered my house,
locked it again.
I smiled at the events that happened today with Enzo.
I was exhausted, so I took a shower and changed into my Mickey mouse oversized t-shirt and my night shorts.
Feeling exhausted I climbed into my bed and started to sleep.
I was about sleep peacefully but I heard a knock on the door.
I groaned and slowly got up and walked to my door.
I opened it and rubbed my eyes to see clearly who was there.
Smirking at me, he said
"Hello Nessa,"
how did he find me?
Somebody, please save me, please.
Everything flashed through my mind, every single detail of his actions, I was shivering in fear.
"W..what are y..you d..doing here?"I asked while taking a step back from the door and tightly gripping the handle.
Stepping inside "you see you didn't answer my call, so I thought why not come and see you...do you really think I'll leave you my Nesse, do you remember who Am I or? Should I make you? "
Stepping back " please... leave me," I said tears started rolling in my eyes.
"Aww my sweet little pet; Are you scared of me, are you scared of daddy...hah?"
"Please leave me... please"
"Oh No No No Never"
Griping my chin "did you forget who you belong to ha... Did you forget me my pet " he started kissing my neck,
"Did you miss my touch huh? Did you miss my lips on your skin? Answer me my pet."
I pushed him, but he was so strong that I couldn't even make him move. I quickly bit down on his shoulder until I can taste blood.
He released me and started shouting
"Ah! Leave it...Ah..."
I pushed me with all my strength he fell down on the floor. I ran towards my bedroom and closed the door and locked it.
I quickly searched for my handbag; it was lying on my table. I took my bag and ran into my washroom and locked it.
"Hiding from me again, my pet. Are we doing this game again" I can hear him say from my bedroom door?
The sound of the opening of my bedroom door was loud and clear to hear from where I'm standing.
"You *bang* cant * bang* hide*bang * from * bang* me"
I quickly opened my bag with my shaking hands and started searching for my phone.
*Bang*bang *bang *bang* bang*
"Open the fucking door Nesse I swear I will fuck you raw if I find you, bitch,"
I started sobbing.
"Please please please please please please please please please please be there be their phone"
I turned my bag upside down started to shake it, everything fell from my bag.
I sat down on the floor and searched for my phone, but I couldn't find it.
I was breathing hard and can hear he had broken my bedroom door.
"Where are you Nesse? Hiding from me is just waste of time you can't fucking hide from me Nesse"
I quickly stood up and tiptoed towards my bathtub and sat down at the corner of my bathtub and closed the curtains.
I closed my mouth with my hands tightly.
Flashback
"Please please, I will not do that again, please,"
I was pleading him.
He gripped my hair making me inches away from his lips.
"I told you not to talk to them but you bitch never wants to listen ha, you want them to touch you my little pet, you want them to kiss you, fuck you that's why you go to them wanting for fucks don't you bitch."
"No no no, I am not like that they're just my friends please listen to me," I said crying hard.
He pushed me; I fell flat on the floor.
He unbuckled his belt and started walking toward me with a wicked smirk.
"Please please don't hurt me, please."
Flashback ended
Crying hard I tried to forget those nightmares.
I snapped to reality when I heard him breaking my washroom door.
I started panicking.
God help me, somebody, please help me, please.
* Bang*
I flinched at the sound of my door. I can hear his footsteps coming straight towards me. I was breathing hard.
His footsteps suddenly stopped and started to go in another direction. Suddenly he opened the curtains.
"Gotcha,"
I screamed.
He caught me by my hair and pulled me towards my bed.
"You think you can hide from me, you ungrateful bitch."
I threw me on my bed.
"I told you, your virginity would be mine your body everything is mine. After searching for you for years, you are here! Hiding like a cute little kitten"
He climbed up on me and pinned my hands above my head.
"Your body is mine only mine, not even yours everything belongs to me," he said sucking my neck.
His left hand was holding my hands above my head and his right hand started to go inside my t-shirt and started touching my belly button.
"Please leave me alone" I started sobbing.
But he ignored my sob completely.
Please, somebody, save me.
Somebody
I was sobbing struggling to move away from him. But his body weight tons.
"Vanessa "
I heard someone calling me.
I tried to reply but he quickly closed my mouth with his big hands And he dragged me with him towards my window curtains and offed the lights.
"Venessa, where are you?"
I can hear footsteps coming towards my bedroom. Tears were rolling down my cheeks.
Please look here please please please please I started to pray.
Footsteps came into the bedroom, Roaming around and it went outside again.
I felt shattered, I started to lose hope.
Nobody can save me from him. Nobody.
Suddenly curtains opened widely,
When I looked up and I saw Lorenzo's beautiful face.
He was very angry, He grabbed his collar dragged him from me, and started punching him like a wild animal.
I just stood there crying like a kid.
After a few seconds, cops came in, They pulled Enzo from him. It was a very hard task for them. He was laying on the ground unconscious; they took him out. We walked out of my house.
They were taking care of him, Enzo talking furiously to the cops, I was numb, I couldn't feel anything; nothing was making sense to me.
I don't know where I was walking, but I didn't stop. I wanted to release my anger and disappointment with everything. It was a busy street with cars, and buses, and crowded.
I saw on my left there was a band performing on the road but no one was there to hear them. No audience, everyone was busy with their phones and work. No one was noticing them. I walked towards them; The main vocalist was a man with, a cute face, and a lean body. I walked towards him,
"Hello,..C.Can I sing?... please" I asked with my soared throat.
He nodded and immediately handed his mike over to me.
I don't know why, but he didn't say anything to me he just handed over his mic to me maybe he can see that I was not in good condition.
I gripped the mic tightly took a deep breath and closed my eyes.
Started to sing while The band joined too
Song:- On my way.
Lyrics,
(My eyes were shut but of those painful memories played in front of me, All that pain which I buried deep down in my heart. My parents, Abuse, Deaths, Rape, and my heart clenched hard remembering them.)
Song ended.
I can feel my tears flowing through my eyes; I opened my eyes and quickly wiped my tears.
We were surrounded by the crowd and everyone was giving a round of applause for our performance, I turned around and quickly ran out of that place.
When I reached a shopping mall, I took a turn from there, but someone caught my wrist and spun me around.
