Waking up in a Mansion

10 : 17 in the morning.

The bright sunshine that came inside the room from the window fell on his face, making him open his eye lids gradually. Li an slowly got up on the king-sized bed he was on. As Li an looked around his surroundings, he remembered what had happened last night. Some people had kidnapped him and now he is here, a luxarious huge bedroom.

Now he was anxious, unknown to what to do, and where he is, and what might happen to him..

He got up from the bed, as he was moving closer to the door, without making any sound,

shatter.

The shattering sound of a vase could be heard out loud. He accidentally broke a vase while he was moving beside a table, where there was an expensive vase. As the vase shattered, one of the glass pieces hurt Li an on his left foot.

"Goddamit-" He took a sharp breath and ignored the pain and went close to the double doors and tried knocking on it but nobody opened it.

"Hello, is anyone outside?!"

no response. What did he even expect? He roamed around the room to find any opening exit this place but found nothing. He sat on the edge of the bed hopelessly. panicking. Thinking hard on if he had enemies who could abduct him like this, but nothing ring a bell because Li an never made any rivals or enemies. Then why would someone kidnapp him?

"Where am i..?!" He said out loud, frustratingly.

****

One hour had been passed, Li an was still in that bedroom, spacing out as he had no hope, he tried to open the door with some hard object but the double doors were strong enough so the lock didn't break.

All of a sudden, Li an heard someone coming close to the room, he put up his guards as he stood up and tried to hear the noises. Before he could realise what was going on, the room's doors were unlocked and the person who was outside, their shadow disappeared.

Li an took a sharp object such as a piece of the broken vase, that was near him and carefully went closer to the door. When he twisted the knob, the door opened. His eyes widened, as he pulled the doorknob as the door opened for him.

He came outside, looked around to see if anyone was there. When he noticed nobody was there, he moved forward to the long hallways infront of him. When he reached the end of the big hallways, he found the stairs. He hurriedly came down using the stairs, but still the whole mansion was like a maze, he couldn't find the exit at all.

After all that running, he was exhausted. He found himself infront of two more double doors, as he pushed the doors open, he entered a giant living room. The living room had a luxarious decor, Couchs, two armchairs, tables, and a fire place which kept the room warm. Li an looked like a lost puppy.

"Mum must be worried right now..." He was in a daze,

"You woke up."

Li an flinched at a woman's soft voice which came from behind him. The voice felt familiar but he couldn't remember where he heard that voice. He put up his guard again. He turned around to see a beautiful woman, leaning on the wall, near the fire place.

"I was waiting for you to wake up so i told Icarus to unlock your door so that if you wake up, you can come out." As Sofia said, Li an narrowed his eyebrows in anxiousness as he opened his mouth,

"First of all, where am i? and who are you?" He said out loud, Sofia sighed,

"I'll answer the questions one at a time, so you are at the Emilio Mansion, and you will never know where the Emilio Mansion is situated and it's guarded heavily. So forget it, if you are thinking of escaping." Sofia wanted to console him, but she realised, she is the culprit here. She is basically forcing him, and she does feel bad about it.

"You're...." Li an gasped at the name; Emilio. As realisation hit him he said out loud, "Sofia Emilio?!"

"Well, i guess i'm famous, anyways, why don't we sit down and talk?" Sofia asked since they were still standing.

"You think i'll stay here? sit with you and drink tea?!"

"I don't exactly drink tea, i like coffee." Sofia said, that sounded like a mock.

"Let me the hell out!" Li an was getting impatient right now, he couldn't tolerate this.

"Do you really think i brought you here just to let you out?"

Li an figured that running isn't an option so he didn't try to run, but he was panicking inside on what to do? Suddenly a mafia leader; The Sofia Emilio gets him kidnapped, its freaking him out. He is scared, because she has the power to do so many horrible things to him.

for example, Human trafficking.

He cleared his throat as he asked carefully, hoping that what he is thinking will not be true.

"Do you want to sell me..?"

As he said that, Sofia's frowned as she stepped a little closer to him, which made him step back a bit.

"Who told that i will sell you? i am never involved in those businesses." The answer still didn't calm him down, he was still afraid of her. Sofia continued, "Are you afraid of me? Don't be. I won't ever harm you.."

"Then why the heck am i here? What do you want from me?!" Li an yelled at her. Sofia sat down on a couch nearby, crossing her legs as she sighed,

"I first met you one year ago. I took an interest in you at first sight, but then i almost forgot you, thinking that it's pointless, After all i'll never meet you again." Li an was listening carefully to what she has to say, without interrupting. Sofia continued, "But what's incredible is that, yesterday i saw you again infront of your university. After thinking it bit i realised i like you. And there is a chance for my own lovestory." She looked at Li an, and smiled geniunely.

"You've got to be kidding me." Li an looked at her as if he couldn't believe her words. He scoffed, "You think i'm an object that you can own? kidnapping me and thinking that i'm all yours?!"

Sofia looked at him as she argued back, "I know! But i am willing to give you alot of time to think about it. If you live with me, You will eventually start to like me too-" before she could finish, he interrupted,

"Love is not something you can force!"

"I'm not forcing you. You will like me on your own."

"You know what, i dont care about your bullshit, let me go and you find someone else to be your little toy-"

"Li an, i have alot of prostitutes to please me, but i chose you above all. Its because i geniunely like you."

"You didn't ask for my choice before abducting me! i have a mother who is waiting for me! i have friend-"

"You only have one friend, who is not even close with you. You introvert." Li an's eyes widened at that comeback, so what he doesn't have friends, no no its not like he doesn't have friends. He never made too many, because he doesn't need it. He has his lovely books.

"I have my own life!"

"I will give you a better life here." Sofia got up from the couch to go close to him as she wanted to give him something. Something she bought for him.

An expensive watch.

That Li an always had an eye on, but couldn't buy since it was too expensive. Sofia's people informed her that Before going back to his house, he stopped infront of a shop and saw a watch inside that on the showcase, he stared at it for a solid minute but then walked away. Her men figured that he wanted to buy it, just doesn't have the money to do it. The price was $1900 after all. When Sofia heard it, she felt bad and immediately ordered it for him.

When Sofia moved closer to Li an, He misunderstood her, thought that she would harm him, since he wasn't agreeing to stay in this mansion.

He started panicking and picked a gun on a side table and pointed the gun towards her, not that he was going to shoot her, just for his own safety.

"Don't come any closer-" Li an said while pointing the gun at her. Sofia's eyes widened as she was shocked, she didn't realise there was a gun on the side table.

"Li an....put that down. You will get hurt!"

"The gun is pointed at you- so dont come any closer!"

Sofia calmed down a bit as she went closer.

Li an was confused and scared as he yelled out, "Aren't you scared?! Stop coming closer!"

Sofia didn't listen as she still went closer, The gun hit her forehead. Li an was panicking, if he accidentally pulled the trigger, her men might kill him, but he was also scared to put away the gun. What if she gets him killed?

"If you are brave enough, then shoot me." Sofia's gaze was so sharp, that it looked like she was looking into his soul. Li an spoke,

"Aren't scared of dying?!"

Still staring at his eyes, she replied, "I wasn't raised to be a coward. I have been born in a Mafia family, walked a blood path. And i have nothing to lose. My family is gone. speaking of you, I'll gladly give you my life."

Li an didn't know what to say anymore, he was in a daze,

"Aah-"

Suddenly Sofia pulled him by the arms, as she pulled him close to her and pushed him against an armchair that was near them. She imprisoned him in her grip, but didn't hurt him, then she took the gun from him. Li an's eyes widened at her movement, he was about to say more but the words seemed to stop in his throat and didn't come out.

Putting the gun in her pant's pocket, she moved close to his left ear, she whispered seductively,

"By the way, there wasn't any bullets in that gun." She then kissed his earlobe, which shocked Li an more.

"Oh Woah, Sofia you're moving pretty fast-"

Sofia was about to get up when they both heard a voice. Sofia got up immediately to see her butler; Icarus and Felix. She answered to Felix's taunt, "I wasn't doing anything, just taking the gun from him. You want to say something Felix?"

"Oh right, the reason why i was here was, Well- Hi."

"Did you just come here to say hi?" Sofia was speechless. Li an was glaring at the wall above.

"Yeah. Hey Sofia's future husband-"

"Shut up, he feels uncomfortable. Let him rest." Sofia said while Li an tried to stay calm but he just wants to get out of here, somehow. Sofia continued, And Icarus?"

"Yes M'lady?"

"Until i'm back, make sure, nobody puts a scratch on Li an. If i come and see anything, i will cut their hands off." Icarus nodded and Li an just stared at Sofia, without saying anything, when he heard that. She did cared for him but how can she just say something like that so casually?!

Sofia then turned around to look at Li an.

Li an's breath stopped in his throat as she spoke, "Li an, if you want, you can roam around the mansion, but not outside until i say so. I am worried that you might try to escape." she sighed. Li an just stared back, still sat on the armchair.

Sofia left with Felix and Icarus, leaving Li an in that huge leaving room. Li an wanted the ground to swallow him up.
