Mixed Feelings (book 1) - Chapter 35:Threatened by my little woman
“W.. what sur… Surprise?” I shuttered, my hand was shaking in his hand, His hold tightened and the look on his face was mocking me.
“Oh… No.. don’t be scared, you’ll love it,” he said, smirking at me in a low voice. I was scared, these days he isn’t himself, and it’s scaring me. I licked my lips looking away from him. I was scared. I don’t want to find out what’s in that room, I just want to leave this place. I don’t want this, I want to have my space. His hold on my waist tightened, I hissed and looked up at him. He was angry. His eyebrows hitched in anger. “Don’t. Do. That” He said pressing every word in a very intimidating attitude, I lowered my head. We danced in silence, he raised my hand and slowly spun me around, my back against his chest, his arms around me, my breath hitched feeling his erection against my back, I feel his breath against my neck. “Do you feel that?” He whispered in a husky voice, “This is what you do by doing that” he whispered, I gulped hard, I was controlling myself very badly. His manhood was poking my back. I took a deep breath and moved back, pressing my back to his manhood. I’ve decided to show him I have an upper hand in this. I wanted to see how he can control himself. I want to test him. I want to see whether he wants to punish me for doing this. I moved slowly, rubbing my back against his manhood. I can feel him taking a sharp intake, the song was playing slowly. His arms around me tightened, pressing my back against his manhood. This was turning me on, I was controlling myself not to rip his clothes off his body and put his dick deep inside my dripping wet sex, I feel his breath near my ear, “What happen?… Thought you don’t want this” He whispered sarcastically, I quickly came to my senses and turned my head back to look at him, He was smirking at me.
Fuck…Venessa can’t you just control your fucking hormones, what the fuck is wrong with you.
I turned around with a smirk on my face. “Trust me, I don’t,” I said in a confident tone. I moved closer to him, my chest touching his. His manhood was touching my belly, I can see his eyes turning in a dark shade of green, It’s turning him on. I moved my body in a way that every part of my body is touching his, I know exactly how to turn him on.
He stopped dancing and took my hand in his pulling me with him, I looked around and noticed that many of the guests have left only a few people left on the dance floor. We climbed the stairs, He pulled to his room and opened the door. I led me in first, it was dark, I heard the door closing and the room was completely dark. I was panicking, I stepped back “Enzo..?” I called, He turned on the lights and I turned to him, he motioned me to look at something so, I turned to his bed there was an envelope placed on the bed, I was panicking again. I looked at Enzo, “Open it” He said in a serious tone, I gulped and walked towards the bed and took the envelope in my hands, I looked back at him opening the Envelope with shaking hands. Inside, the envelope there were photos. I pulled them out and turned them, I gasped when I saw my grandmother’s photos. They were candid photos of her talking to someone on the phone, playing with her cat and doing some work. My heart beating furiously with anxiety, I turned to Enzo, he was casually leaning his back on the door, I was looking at him with fear evident in my eyes.
“Do you see that?” He said, calmly.
I nodded, “I have my men watching her, If you do any small mistake you will find her on the streets like a beggar, If I find you reveling about our marriage to anyone get ready to face the consequences”
I felt my heart drop at his words, “W…what?…what did you just say?” I asked I was shocked at his threat, he sounded like Brian to me. All that abuse and harassment rushed back to me.
How…how can he do this to me when he knows this had already happened to me before, How can someone do this to their loved one? Did he not love me?.
“You heard me, one mistake and you will find her on streets begging for food,” He said holding his hands.
Tears were rolling in my eyes, I controlled myself not to cry in front of him. I will not show my tears to him, I’m not that old Vennessa who couldn’t fight for herself, who couldn’t stand up for herself. I’m not weak, I’m strong enough to fight for what I love. I love you Enzo but I will not stand aside and watch you destroy people I love. I couldn’t save someone I loved the most back then, Now I won’t stay back to save the people I love from you Enzo. I will fight back, I will.
“Why…Why do you want this?” I asked him in a straight and cold tone, he looked at me for a second and walked towards me. “What made you think that I will answer your questions, If you want your grandmother to stay happy without any problem Then you will have to do every single thing I tell you to do,”
“Touch her and I swear on my dead parents I’ll rip your parts one by one and feed them to the stray dogs,” I said in a dangerous tone stepping towards him. I took the ring out of my finger, I grabbed his hand and placed it in his hand, I strolled out of his room. I don’t know what got into me to warn him like that, I guess I had enough of men trying to control me. I had enough of this, I will change him in my own way. I have decided.
As soon as I entered my room, I broke down into tears, crying out loud. I want his love not this, I miss the Enzo who loved me, cherished me, I want him to come back to me. I can’t see him doing this, I will get it him back, I will get my Enzo back by hook or by crook.

I woke up feeling my head pondering. With all the thoughts rushing inside my head, I stood up and walked inside my bathroom. Did my morning duties and rushed downstairs for breakfast, Judy saw me
“slow down Nessie”
“I’m late, I’ll going to miss my class, Judy”
She quickly served breakfast and had it quickly. Paul dropped me at my college and I rushed inside, I quickly reached my class and took my seat at my usual place. Professor has come and began the class.

Later, I was sitting with my friends at our usual spot in the cafeteria, having our lunch. Beth was talking to Zach about her new project and he was listening to her very carefully. I was checking my schedule for the next class, Aron and Megan and others were having a conversation about some new article they’ve read about.
“No, It was real I thought it’s fake but It isn’t,” Morgan said, explaining to them that she saw an article about the aliens. “Morgan, It’s fake there’s nothing in Area 51, It’s just a military base,” Timothy said, “But the saucer, How can it be fake,” she asked him, “wait, let me show you,” she said, pulling her phone out and typing something, I smiled at them shaking my head. All of a sudden she screamed my name, I flinched on my chair. Everyone in the cafeteria was looking at us now, I turned to Morgan and she was gaping at her phone screen, “Morgan?” Aron called her out, but she didn’t respond. “Morgan!” Rachel called her, shaking her shoulder. She looked at me, “Bitch why did you hide your engagement from us?” She said, “What!” Everyone at our table said at once, standing up from the chair. I looked up at them, I sighed and lowered my head, “Guys, I can explain” I said, they sat down, quietly waiting for my explanation, I sighed. Now I have to create a story to hide the truth that this is a Contract Marriage and I’m forced to marry him. I took a deep breath and prepared myself, I looked at them and noticed their curious stares. “Ok…We got back and he proposed to me and I accepted” I said in a breath, They looked at each other. “Nessie do we look like fools to you?” Beth said I shook my head.
“Guys, I’m not lying. We met in the mall, he apologized and I accepted his apology. He proposed to me later and I accepted” I said, I looked at them. The look on their faces screaming that We- are-not-taking-this-bullshit. “Are you happy?” Asked Zach, All of a sudden every single thing that happened in the past few days rushed back to me. Am I happy? I asked myself.
“I’m happy,” I said to Zach with a fake smile,
“Vennessa are you sure? DO you really wanna marry him,” Timothy asked,
I wanted to scream, No I don’t want to, but I couldn’t so I just smiled. “I can’t see my future without him,” I said lowering my head, I heard Morgan gasping “You’re so in love,” she said,
“I’m happy for you,” said Jack,
“Finally, we can go for a double date,” Rachel said,
Double date and Enzo, doesn’t fit in one sentence, he will never do that. Imagine him with us, it will be a disaster. He’s a bossy and very intimidating person. By just looking at him, people get frightened.
All this while, Aron was quiet and He didn’t even look at me, which was strange. I feel bad for lying to them about us, I don’t have an option. I can’t tell them the truth and put them in danger, Enzo can hurt them. I have to save them from him, I can’t have him blackmail me using my friends. I have to be careful.

I was walking to my paul who was waiting for me in the parking lot, Beth came to me and grabbed my hand and pulled me with her to an empty classroom, “What the hell is wrong with you Nessa” she yelled at me,
“What?”
“Don’t try and act smart with me, you can lie to everyone but not to me. So, stop lying to me and Tell the truth”
“I’m not lying to you, I’m happy to marry him. He loves me, I love him there is nothing to lie about beth” I said, looking at her. It’s hard to lie to her, she will not believe so easily.
“V, please don’t lie to me, you can tell me whatever it is, I’m here okay, If you’re happy with him then I won’t interfere, but if I know that he has hurt you then I swear I will cut his balls off and make a tasty, tasty dish and make him eat it completely,” she said, I gasped and slapped her shoulder, she giggled. “I swear I will do it, I’m not bluffing”
I hugged her, I’m lucky to have a friend like her. I can’t imagine her leaving me, I’m so sorry beth for hiding this from you, I’m sorry.
We walked outside the room and I saw Aron walking outside, I called him. He heard me and stopped. “I’ll talk to you later,” I said to beth, “okay, see you later,” she said. I walked to Aron, he turned to me. “Why are you ignoring me?” I asked him,
“I’m not ignoring you, Nessie,” he said,
“Oh..really Aron, you weren’t ignoring me? Don’t lie to me” I said angrily,
He sighed, “I don’t want you to get hurt,”
“Why will I get hurt,” I asked confused with his words,
“Because you don’t know who Lorenzo is….you don’t know what he is capable of. You don’t know what he did behind…..” He was cut off by someone from behind calling my name, we turned and saw Paul walking to us. “Vennessa, we need to go,” Paul said, I nodded and I noticed Paul looking at Aron for a second, both looking at each other like they are communicating through their eyes, paul broke the eye contact and walked ahead, I turned to Aron. “I don’t why you feel that I will get hurt by being with Enzo, but truth me, Aron, I’m happy with him please don’t worry about me. See you later” I said to him, he touched my cheek, “Take care of yourself V,” he said,
“I will”

“Where are we going, Paul?” I asked,
“Mr. Francisco asked me to bring you to him”
My heart started beating furiously against my rib cage, what does he want from me now?. Paul stopped the car and opened the door for me, I stepped out. The area was deserted but a pathway leads into the woods. He took me to a cabin which was located in the center of the woods, he went inside and opened it, held it so that I could walk inside. This was scary, I was Chatting god’s name and following Paul. What if Enzo is calling me to torture me? I gulped at my thoughts. Paul stopped at the huge metal door, there was a panel at its right, he pressed something and the gate opened. It was guarded by so many bodyguards at the door standing opposite to each other, I followed Paul inside a cabin. There he was sitting on a chair, looking at me calmly. I walked to him, Paul left us alone in this cabin. He stood up and turned to the glass. He pressed a button and light shunned from the mirror.
The other side of the glass was visible, two bodyguards stood straight wearing black suits. As they stepped aside another man sat on the chair, his head down and his hands and legs tied with leather belts to a leaning barber chair. I stepped ahead to the glass to have a clear picture of the person.
And when I see who he was I gasped.
