Chapter 6

DIANA'S POV

My hands struggled gently to hold the gun as I deepened the kiss, Enzo's eyes were shut…meaning he was enjoying the moment.

This was my chance, without wasting much time, I swiped the gun from his pocket and just before I could point the gun at him, Enzo caught my hands and opened his eyes.

“Not so fast, Diana.” His smirk reached his cheeks as he narrowed his eyes, I could sense anger rising, I darted my eyes slowly around the area, looking for an object to set myself loose from his clutches.

“Leave me alone!” I yelled and yanked my hands away from his, Enzo pocketed his hands and gazed at me.

“I could recognize you even from crowds, how dare you try to fool me?” Enzo gritted his teeth.

My reflex kicked in and I knew I had to run. I was almost at the gate,there doesn't seem to be a lot of security around there.

I stepped back slowly as I looked at him.” Don't come closer to me, Enzo.” I barked at him and he chuckled, moving even an inch closer.

Before I could go for the run, I saw Franco running towards us, anger evident in his face.

“This little…” he held himself from cursing at me as he clenched his fist.

“Take her to the room beside mine and lock her up, no one would go in except me or you.” I heard Enzo's judgement and tears rolled down my cheeks.

Franco bundled me like he did earlier and I glared at Enzo, one of bitterness, betrayal and anger. I would never have believed Enzo would have caused me so much pain and terror.

“This… it isn't the end, Enzo, I will make you pay for what you did to my family!” I shouted at the top of my lungs.

“Take her away.” Enzo spoke, unaffected at my words, more tears rolled down my cheeks and my vision was blurry, my chest churned from everything Enzo did,my heart yearned for My sweet Maria, how cruel was he to end her life without pity.

I couldn't struggle with franco as he dragged me away, my life was completely shattered to fight for, should I just succumb to the mockery and anguish?

Just as we got to the first step, I felt a sudden thud on my cheek followed by a tingling sensation, I looked up at Francesca whose appearance was raging, she fumed as she glared coldly at me.

She was about to raise her hands again when Franco stopped her.” Stop, Don wouldn't take it if he finds out you laid a finger on her.”

“What? Did you know what this wench did to me? Look at me, she had the audacity to lay her dirty hands on me!” Francesca ranted like a mad lady.

I twitched my teeth as I swallowed my saliva, the slap was nothing compared to the pain I caused her,there was this sense of victory I was having when I glanced at her.

“Let me Make this known to you, Diana D'Angelo.” She dug her nails in my chin as she raised my face up.” You're trapped here, forever, No one is going to save you, not even your Maria whose blood still lingers in my nails.” She snarled and I gritted my teeth at her.

My fist clenched slowly as Trapped forever echoed in my mind, No, I should escape, I can't be trapped in this anguish, I can't be a prisoner forever.

“That's enough Francesca, change your clothes before don arrives.” Franco mentioned before leading me to my destiny.

Pushing me into the room, he immediately locked the door and I could hear his footsteps retreating. After I was sure he had left, I scanned my eyes around the room and realized there was just one window and it was so small that a teenager couldn't fit through talk more of me.

I slowly fell to the floor and hugged my body. For the first time in my life, I felt insecure and scared. What was going to happen to me? There should be a reason Enzo was keeping me captive, was it because of Dante? Was he trying to use me to capture my brother?

My lips quavered as I mumbled incoherent words,I hoped and prayed he wouldn't make a mistake to look for me,it could be a trap and just like that, I found myself going drowsy and soon, I shut my eyes, hoping I won't ever open them again.

The door to the room opened slowly and opened my eyes slowly and sat up from the floor. The familiar figure walked up to me and bent low to my level.

It was Enzo.

He flicked my hair away from my face and tugged it behind my ear.” How brave of you earlier, You took such bold steps to kiss me.” He started and I shivered in fear.

I knew where this was going, I wasn't ready mentally for anything he was planning to do.

“You might as well be brave enough on the bed don't you?” Enzo let out a smirk as he gazed at me.

“Don't touch me with your filthy hands.” My voice sounded cold and croaky.

“You can't command me Diana D’Angelo.” Enzo growled as his face changed.” You are my prisoner and anything I tell you to do, you do it and not the other way around.”

“I don't care whatever you think, I won't let you touch my body.” I mumbled with the last courage in me.

“Your body is mine and mine alone!” Enzo voiced coldy as he tried peeling the clothes from my shoulder.

“I have kept myself for you all these years thinking you are the right person for me, but not anymore, I won't let you touch me!” I yelled.

There was a moment of pause and Enzo's brow raised high in surprise… I think.

“Are you still a virgin?”

he whispered, his eyes burning with intensity.

His voice trailed off, leaving the question hanging in the air like a challenge.
