Chapter 17

After I was able to enjoy my hot water bath with bubbles in complete peace of mind, since my mind had cleared of everything that had happened, and I was able to close my eyes in peace, I finally got out of the bathtub wrapped in a towel when I dried myself. My whole body, when I got out of the bathtub, I felt the delicious cold air that entered from the open window of my bathroom, and soon, I went to the coffee table in the visiting room of my room, there was still my chocolate and my food served.

Although unfortunately when I took the cup of hot chocolate, it wasn't so hot anymore, but anyway, when I took the first sip, it was cold, I still enjoyed it, because even if it was cold, it was delicious.

The servants of my house prepared the best of hot chocolates.

After I drank the last sip of hot chocolate, before it ended up running out completely, I decided to take the sandwich to start eating it at the same time that I sat in the armchair in my visiting room.

Soon, I was interrupted when someone knocked on my bedroom door.

I was not scared this time because I thought that perhaps it would be my parents who came to wish me good night because it was already getting very late, and it had been a very tiring day and I couldn't wait to go to bed in the comfort of my bed. .

I put my sandwich back on my plate after I have taken a small bite and I have stood up to go to the door and open it without even asking who it was like I always used to do.

But when I opened the door of my room, I got a surprise that made my hair stand on end, left my body immobile, and even turned pale.

When I opened the door of my room, I realized that it was neither my father nor my mother who was at the door, but Matteo, and two of the men who worked for him, all three of them were there at the door, looking at me fixed with a look of vengeance.

That look left me with a terror so deep inside my body that I couldn't even scream to get my parents' attention and that they would have come to rescue me.

"Catch her!" Matteo orders his men after spending a while staying silent, looking into each other's eyes.

His men quickly approached me, agreeing to their boss's orders, they grabbed my arms, and then, one of them took out a roll of thick gray tape, and they put it on top of my head mouth so that with her on top he couldn't scream.

Matteo's men took me by force to the first floor of the house, and when we went down I realized that my parents had also been grabbed by the arms each by two men, all dressed in black with black hoods that covered their faces and only left their eyes and nose visible.

My parents had also had their mouths taped.

Even the servants of the house were being deprived of their freedom by more of Matteo's men in the same way that he has done with me.

"With them, they already know what to do, I'll take care of her, do you understand?" said Matteo to his men.

His men nodded their heads and left my house with the servants and my parents without wanting to let go of their grasp.

I looked at them with concern, I wanted to cry, but I knew that if I started crying in front of Matteo, it would be worse for me.

"You and I will go back to my house, remember that now you are mine, and that I cannot let you go until I have fulfilled my revenge against your parents, okay?" Matteo says, whispering in my ear with a much more threatening tone of voice than I would think he would ever be able to be in the short time I've known him.

Matteo forcibly took me with him until he left the house, outside, there were at least five armored trucks parked. Matteo forced me to get into the car, he did it while he pushed me inside, and even caused me to fall lying on my side on my shoulder.

Matteo got in the car, and the other men appeared suddenly, they were alone, they were not accompanied by my parents or the servants of my house.

I was getting even more worried about their situation, I just wanted them to be okay, I didn't want them to suffer.

Worst of all, now is when I was realizing that I was really interested in wanting to know what my parents had done wrong in a business to have had to start suffering those misfortunes of having fallen into the hands of the mafia and revenge.

Soon, one of Matteo's men has climbed into the driver's seat of the vehicle in which Matteo and I were, and immediately, without taking into account that Matteo gave him the order to do so, he decided to start in a hurry to get out of my house as if he was in the middle of a police chase, being him the criminal the police were looking for.

I had to sit in the chair when I remembered that Matteo had not tied my arms or legs to prevent him from immobilizing me, because I was feeling that I was getting dizzy from the movement of the car while lying in the position I was in.

The journey in the vehicle lasted at least an hour, and it seemed that Matteo was annoyed that I settled in another position because he immediately grabbed me hard and made me hit the seat again so that I wouldn't see anything out of the way.
