the abused wife of the Mafia King

chapter14

Lana POV

I had a very tiring day, I was up from 6 am today, and after my breakfast, I had nothing else to eat. Everything here is so expensive, and I did not want to waste my remaining money on outdoor food. So I held my hunger until I got back to the hotel and ate.

Just as I was walking back home, I got a message from Nicolas, asking about how my day was. I told him that I didn’t have any luck finding a job, but lucky for me, he said he knew a company that would give me a chance.

The rest of the walk was very enlightening since I knew tomorrow would be a better day than today.

I got back to the hotel and just as I was about to enter the lift, I guy followed me in, and to my surprise, it was Jake, my bully.

I held my arms tightly around my chest and went to one corner of the lift.

“What level are you in”, he asked as he approached me.

I tried to take a step back, but my back hit the lift, I had nowhere to go or hide.

I stayed silent, not wanting him to know my room number.

Jake walked up so close to me that I could feel his breath on my cheeks, I didn’t know how scared I was until my hands started shaking.

Jake saw the weak girl in front of him and decided to take advantage of me.

He put both his arms around me, caging me, Tears started rolling down my cheeks.

“Jake please leave me alone”, I cried to him, but he didn’t listen to me. Instead, he held my arms tightly, causing bruises.

“I said, what level is your room?”, he said again, as he pressed himself on to me.

“Jake please, don’t do this to me, please, I’m begging you, leave me alone”, I cried again. But instead of having mercy on me, Jake threw himself onto me and pressed his lips on my neck. Sucking it and biting it.

I started screaming, crying for help,

“Please help me, someone helps me please”, Jake please stop”, I begged him, but he was a monster.

He opened his mouth wider to bite me on my neck when the lift opened and a big, large pair of hands grabbed Jake from the neck and held him up. I couldn’t see who it was as my vision was blurred, not being able to support myself I slid down and fell on my knees. Sobbing.

Just as I was about to pass out on the floor, the same pair of arms gently picked me up bridal style and exited the lift. I cleaned my eyes to see him better and once again, Nicolas was here for my rescue.

“Please don’t let him take me” I cried in his arms.

Nicolas’s hands around me tightened and he walked into a different elevator while. I had my head in his chest sobbing gently when we reached a room, I lifted my head to realize this was not my room.

Nicolas gently placed me on his bed and went to get a wet towel from the bathroom.

After a couple of minutes, he returned with a pair of shirts and socks and a wet towel.

I could see his face was troubled, he didn’t have the same kind of face that he usually had with me, instead, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands were clenched. I could feel rage radiating from him.

He set down beside me and started cleaning me with the wet towel.

He was so silent, and I could sense that he was angry. He cleaned almost every part of my exposed skin.

Once he was done, he looked at me and said, “Can I change your clothes?”.

Once again, his voice was so sweet and kind. But I couldn’t let him change me, I didn’t want him to see all the lash marks on my back, I didn’t want him to see the bruise that Jake caused me today.

“Nicolas, I am okay, I don’t need to change, your clothes will get dirty”, I said, looking down.

His clothes were all designer brands and expensive, I couldn’t possibly wear them and ruin them.

“You won’t make it dirty, here, let me help you”, he said, but I quickly leaned back.

He saw my hesitation and smiled.

“I’ll keep the clothes here on the bed, the bathroom is there, you can change when you are ready”, he said and walked out.

Once he was out of the room, I picked up the shirt and socks and went into the bathroom. I took off my shirt, only to see my back which was ruined, there were a hundred lash marks, and some were still very new. I never want anyone to see this side of me. I don’t want people to pity me.

I put on his clothes on walked out, I placed my clothes on the bedside, and just then, I heard two low knocks on the door.

“Lana, are you changed, can I come in?”, Nicolas said.

“Yes”, I replied in my low voice.

He entered the room and looked at me in his clothes.

“You look beautiful in my clothes”, he said with a smirk on his face.

My face started heating up, embarrassed I put my head down, trying to hide my blush.

“Nicolas, I could’ve gone to my room and changed?”, I said to him, my head still low.

“This is where you will be staying from now on”, he said as he walked out of the room, leaving me stunned.

I followed behind him, to argue, only to come to a table filled with all kinds of food.

I forgot what I wanted to talk to Nicolas about, and at the sight of the food, my shameless stomach started growling.

Nicolas came and took my hand in his, placing me on one of the chairs on the table, and he took the other chair right in front of me.

He took food and placed it on my plate.

“Eat it, you need your energy for tomorrow”, he said as he placed a big piece of steak in front of me.

My eyes went wide, and I looked at him in confusion, how would I be able to finish this steak? I thought to myself.

Nicolas seemed to understand my thoughts and quickly added, “Eat as much as you can, and if you can't finish it, then it is okay”, he said as he placed a piece of potato on my plate.
