Chapter 3

SASHA'S POV

As he pulled me along with him, I felt my heart pounding with fear. I tried to break free from his grip, but he was just too strong. "Please, let me go. I promise I won't tell anyone what I saw," I begged. Trying to remove his giant's hand from me.

But he didn't listen to me. The next thing I hear is a whistle. I directed my eyes behind this man, just to see the others coming. All had their guns in their hands, as they matched toward me. I am beginning to tremble. What can I do?

"Please, don't kill me," I pleaded with the fellow holding me. Still trying to set myself free.

This giant tossed me into the arms of another man, who's less huge, but still muscular.

"Get her into the car," he ordered, and the other man just nodded, like an obedience puppy, and started pulling me away.

My heart is pounding at his command. Are they taking me to where I'll be killed? My fear took over my heart.

I watched as one of them moved ahead of us. The men dragged me along, all putting on a serious face. I kept looking at their faces, unable to cry out but beg for Mercy.

A car came closer to us. I was immediately tossed into the car by the man who tied me up. Two of them sat beside me in the car, and another sat in front. "Let's go," The one on my left said.

The car immediately drove from that place and straight onto the road.

I was already thinking of my last day here on earth until I was left stunned to see a magnificent mansion coming into view. I stared at this building, as the car pulled up into the premises of this large building.

I was dragged out of the car and brought into the house.

“Knees, you don't want my boss to come back here without you on your knees,” One of the men said, while I swallowed hard, wondering who their boss would be.

Looking at the interior, gave me my confirmation on who these men are. They are Mafias. This means I'm going to be before their boss. He must have ordered them to find and bring me before him, so he could finish the work.

I thought and felt my entire body shiver while thinking of what was in store for me. If only I had listened to my heart when it suggested I take the bridge.

I thought but just then my mind drifted off to the handsome man from earlier, and I just glanced around wondering where he was.

“So you are the one that kept us all up the entire night?" I heard a familiar voice, but couldn't place my hands on where I had heard it from before, but just then, the handsome man showed up in front of me, sitting down on the sofa in front of me.

I lifted my eyes at this fellow, I should have been scared, but somehow I wasn't quite scared. Maybe it was because of how he had spoken softly to me back in the woods.

His eyes were directly above me. He's talking to the man behind me.

"She's the one boss." I heard someone say, making me realize he was the actual boss here.

I immediately took my eyes down to the floor, staring at him was making me go wild when I should be thinking about my life.

Looking at him right now, I knew he was a Mafia boss, and I was sure he wouldn't just spare me because I was an eyewitness to his crime. So I should be bothered about that, and not getting all wet over him.

At this moment, as these two talked about me, I was thinking about my life. It was already flashing before my eyes. My father... Gosh! Is this how everything is going to end for me? Does this mean I'll never see my father anymore? I felt my hands shaking, just thinking of my end.

“Hmm.” I heard him exhale, and just then he cleared his throat.

Everything became silent. I couldn't hear anything anymore, but only the sound of my heartbeat pounding.

"What's your name?" I suddenly heard from him. Lifting my gaze right back at him.

I found him staring at me, with his legs crossed and his back against the couch he was on.

"Sasha," I answered, almost inaudibly.

"Sasha. That's a lovely name," He commented. Placing both legs to the ground and pulling himself away from the couch. His right hand came before me for a handshake. “I'm Sebastian," He introduced.

I felt my heart beating. I wasn't sure if I should hold his hand or not. Many terrifying thoughts come to my mind. Though he made me feel desire back in the woods, but knew he was acting like he had never met me before.

"Don't be afraid. I just want a handshake," He said. His face looked almost cold like it didn't rhyme with the tone of his words.

Due to my fear, I took hold of his strong and rough hand. He held mine gently and shook it. Letting out an arc to the side.

I attempted to draw my hand back, but his grip became tight on mine, and somehow I felt good within me.

"At a very bad time, you found yourself witnessing what your eyes weren't meant to see. Bringing you to a very uncomfortable position now, Sasha," Sebastian said, tabling out my situation before me.

"It wasn't intentional. I was only heading home when I saw the cars parked on the road. I couldn't get through, but decided to find out what was happening at the front. That's how... Please, let me go," I begged.

His eyes are still on me. Almost like he's hypnotizing me, because I didn't realize when his hand released mine. I only realized it when he said, "You have two choices to choose from." He said making me gasp wondering what he meant.

Choices? What options does he have in mind?
