Owned By The Mafia Boss

His dark eyes stared into mine with no emotions at all. “Xav—” “Shut up!” I flinched and let out a shuddered breath. He came closer and took a hold of my neck as if trying to choke me or something. I stared at him and breathed heavily. “Just shut up.” I looked down and closed my eyes. “I own you.” His words resounded in the room. They were like torture to me and I couldn’t escape. I was trapped with him and there was no way out. ______________________ Join me on the roller coaster ride of love and hate, following Xavier Valencian -- a handsome, yet devilish mafia boss and his new interest -- Scarlett Walker. What happens when Scar's dad sells her to the mafia boss for three million dollars? Can she buy her back & save her life, or will she be always a prisoner to his little tricks? [Updated regularly.

Chapter 23: The Half Truth

"So, girlfriend, huh?" He said with a mysterious smile, complemented with a smirk.

I looked at him with a hint of embarrassment. "I… uh, no. I didn't actually want to give that term any legitimacy or anything... I just got confused about what I should say and that came out. Yes."

"Out of the hundred ways you could have introduced yourself, you chose it. That shows something, Scarlet."

"That shows that I speak bullshit when I am in doubt!" I breathed, "And that I need more practice in getting along with people like them."

"But it wasn't entirely bullshit. You are, in fact, my girlfriend."

I sighed. "Forced girlfriend would be a more appropriate term here."

"Not really, sweetheart. I just did what you always wanted. I just made it easier and took the first step."
