Irresistible Love

"Been a while..isn't it?"

The dark room enlights up when Max turned up the lights and the two of the hostage looked up squinting their eyes when the light hit their eyes.

"You son of a bitc-"

"Nicholas!" his father cut his son off and shook his head no warning him not to open his mouth.

"See? Your father is such a polite man and indeed...intelligent..." I chuckled as I took a seat on a chair before them.

"Why have you kept us alive?" Vito talked to me for the first time. He has been tight-lipped from the day they have been captured and that captured my interest.

"Well, someone is in talking mode today," I mocked earning a glare from Nicholas.

"Honestly, I take my words back. You two are the dumbest people I have ever met in my life," I sighed as I folded up my sleeves and crossed my arms across my chest leaning against the chair as I lift my leg up and kept it on the other one as I took in their appearance.

My people totally forgot what the word sanitization actually means because it was how they had kept these two all these while my absence. They were wearing the same clothes in which they were captured. Their shirt dirty and bloodied, hair messy, bruises and blood stains on their skin and they smelled like rotten rats.

"Jeez!" fanning the air before my nose, my nose scrunched up when the scent of raw blood assaulted my nose and it was when my eyes fell on Nicholas' leg.

"Seth!" I called the guy who was supposed to be the caretaker of the two guest.

"Yes, Boss!" within a minute he entered the room and stood in between us exchanging glances towards our guest.

"What is this way of handling our guests Seth? Where are your manners?" I asked and even though he didn't understand what I meant he hung his head low and waited for me to continue.

"Look at his leg. He is bleeding. What do you think you have been doing? From now on, take even more good care of our guest, do you understand?" my voice raised a little at the end and all he did was to nod his head.

"Now what are you waiting for? Go! serve our guests. His leg is bleeding...go and bring a cloth and mop the floor. Do you have any idea how costly the flooring is? His dirty blood is ruining my floor and moreover, this place has started to stink. I don't want people who come to my house think this place as a butcher shop or something. It's terrible!" I huffed at the end.

Seth nodded and left out of my sight leaving the four of us including Max who was standing in the corner of the room to talk privately.

"You little! Unhand me this instant and I'll show you what I have got!" Nicholas spat enraged all of a sudden.

"Easy there tiger...I believe you don't want me to hurt your father now, do you? hmmm?"

"Nicholas..." Vito whispered yelled at him.

"Why have you kept us alive? What do you want?" Vito spoke up.

"Why? Do you have a desire to die soon?" I asked as I raised an eyebrow at him.

I stared straight into his eyes "Even though my desire is to kill you here this instant...I won't. I won't until and unless both of you beg me to kill you. You fucking rats have the guts to look straight into my eyes even after what you did to my sister and you dumbasses of the century thought barging into my territory and abducting

No! No!" Vito

Don't kill my son. Kill me

after," I said icily as I turned around

I won't let you suffer that heart-ache. Even though I want to be the one to kill him with my own bare hands, I can't. I don't want to be marred by his filthy blood. So, that is why I'm letting you have this

I wasn't worried about anyone but just wanted to fulfil my responsibilities as her employer. I kept her working late for helping me and

She nodded frantically and without even second thoughts she ran to her car and closed the hood and took her purse out before locking the car and ran back as she got in and closed the door in a hurry. I locked the door and looked at her to
