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.

Owned By The Mafia Boss

As I reached Andrew's room, I closed the door and tears pooled in my eyes. The look on Xavier's face when I said those words to him was already haunting me to my core. I didn't know what else I could do, other than just sit down and wait for tomorrow.

I knew Xavier really cared about me and Andrew: he had shown that on multiple occasions, but I didn't want Drew to grow up in a house where he didn't feel secure. Yes, Xavier would become better over time, but was it really worth putting Drew through more trauma?

After everything, Max was running free, Xavier had a woman he promised to marry, and I was left with nothing. Just empty words from the same man who had hurt me for so long. It wasn't enough for me to stay, not anymore.

"Are you okay, mommy?" I heard Drew. He must have woken up by my sobs.

I hugged him and held him close to my heart. "It will be, Drew. It's all gonna be okay."
