Mafia’s Wicked Love

He wasn't always like this... was he? Was it a specific moment that led to where we are today? Was I too blind to see through his façade? Was I blind enough to overlook his sociopathic, sadistic tendencies? No answers, I have no answers. But it doesn't matter anymore. Neither of us are the same people we once were. It's too late for him and I. We can't turn around from the grave sins we've committed. He's the monster I loved once but now, he's the spawn of Satan himself. I was once the girl he supposedly loved but now... I'm just an object of his torments. "You really think you'll be able to leave me?" The sinister look in his eyes keep me alert. "No," I answer truthfully as the blood dripping down my skirt. "You will keep me alive till my heart bleeds for you. Until you break me completely and that's when I'll take my last breath that takes me away from the man who created hell on earth for me; and that's when I'll leave you, forever."

CHAPTER 40

Z A R A 

"Zara, my love, did you take my car keys?" Alejandro asks, standing opposite to me at the kitchen counter. I stare at him hazily, not sure what's going on. "No..."

He smiles at a genuine, heartwarming one. "Don't act naive. It's literally dangling from your hand." I look down to see a remote car key in my grip. "Oh..." He walks toward me but I walk around the counter, avoiding him. It's an instinct at this point.

"Zara, I need to go to work... don't make me chase you," he says with a smirk. I sprint into a run with the keys in hand, not sure where I'm going or why I'm running.

"Zara!" I hear him call out after me. A burst of giggles spurts out of me as I run through the long hallway, wind rushing past me, making me feel free. "Catch me if you can!"
