SPANISH GODDESS

CHAPTER 11: [ OSVALDO'S POV ]

I heard the shower running . After brushing my teeth,I stepped into the shower and saw Elora washing herself. I move closer to her and wrap my arms around her waist -pulling her against my chest. I place small kisses on her neck which she doesn't react to- something is wrong!

She's about to leave the shower when I stop her , she looks at me'' this is about yesterday isn't it?'' she remains quiet so I just stare at her '' hate me if you must , but before you leave - let me feed you at least, its the least I could do!'' She nods and leaves me in the shower. I groan and wash myself before getting to the kitchen!

[ ELORA'S POV ]

I know where this will lead to , if I don't set boundaries -I'm on my way to disaster!

I could feel him staring at me while I was eating. I ate quickly and washed my plate. I was packing it away when his hands lace with mine - I look in his baby blue eyes and he stares back at me. '' Don't blame yourself for my actions!'' I narrow my eyes ''we both had a part in that !'' He looked relieved that I spoke '' I'll make sure that the Italian mafia stays away from you for the next few days , weeks if necessary!''' I break out of his hold and walk outside.

I reach outside and Stella's there , sitting in my car- she jumps to the passenger's seat , acknowledging Xandros. As I'm about to get in, he speaks '' I'm just a call away!'' I nod and drive off.

As I'm driving - I see Stella staring at me ''its never easy to let go ,but they are not all the same Elora-he won't hurt you and you know that!'' I look at her for a second and focus on the road '' they the epitome of betrayal!'' she sighs. ''I'm quickly going to change at my place, we will then go to the agency and thereafter eat brunch.

I changed quickly and ran back to the car. After checking the agency, we went to grab brunch.

I looked at my surroundings while I continued eating my Alfredo pasta. ''When did you start feeling so unsafe?'' I looked at Stella ''you know me too damn well!'' she smiles. '' They are going to take me and there's nothing any of you can do to stop that from happening!'' Stella looks worriedly at me'' there has to be something! ''

I looked at my wrist - I had a phoenix tattoo . I encircled my tattoo and Stella looked at what I was showing her. ''You will know every step I take !'' she looked at me with wide eyes '' you a damn genius you know that!'' I laugh '' if you do everything right , you guys will make it in time to save me !''

We left the restaurant , and went to the agency. I checked a few designs I had planned out - after that, I handed Stella my phone and keys. She wraps me in a hug and whispers near my ear'' we will find you, I have faith in you ! you will get out of there-you your fathers lethal weapon!'' I grin ''I'm impressed that you remember!''

I walked out of the agency and sat on a nearby bench. It doesn't take long before they find me - I walk towards them , surrounded by a crowd and I get pulled into the car. As soon as I'm in, a white cloth is placed around my mouth and I sway a bit before I pass out.

[ OSVALDO'S POV ]

The doors swing open , I'm about to protest about the rude intrusion until I see Ivanna running in with Alden behind her. ''Elora is gone, she knew it would happen and she let them take her!'' I stand up abruptly and bark out commands . ''GET THE PLANE READY-WE GOING TO ITALY!!!''
