Diego.

To say my security team was shocked to see my home this early would be meiosis, they were stunned. Generally, I wouldn't be home till midnight but today I was in at eight P.M, the excitement of seeing those silver eyes again had me doing things I'd never usually do.

They bowed their heads as I walked up to the front door to show they acknowledged my presence.

I walked with long strides to the guest room but was disgruntled when the eyes I longed so much to see were closed. I desperately wanted to hear her voice, to see her. I got a chair, sat next to her and watched as her chest steadily rose and fell. Examining her features, I could see clearly that this girl is nothing but quintessence. As my eyes travelled from her cute little feet to her legs I saw she had the most beautiful delicate fingers, my eyes continued to roam further I lifted her shirt and saw she had a waist that would fit perfectly in my large arms and I couldn't wait to hold her. she had perfectly sized breasts oh what I want to with those breasts, she had the perfect colour bone and all I wanted to do my put my mark all over that colour bone, even her neck was perfect I thought as I silently laughed to myself.
My eyes proceeded to travel further and my view was met by plumb pink lips, all I wanted to do was to kiss those lips senselessly till they were red and swollen .she had a cute little nose, naturally, long eyelashes that covered those beautiful eyes, perfect eyebrows and long silky brunette hair, she was magnificent. I silently cursed myself for not meeting her sooner I heard she was beautiful but I never once thought of confirming it for myself.

The next few days passed by in a blur I had travelled to Mexico to check if my goods were safe and make sure all the capital I had invested was worth it and I also had to make sure the warehouse was safe.
I spent the next few days in Mexico dealing with some more tiny gangs that thought they could match up to me. Pathetic.

"Get Dr Parker on the line, "I told my driver casually.

I haven't heard from the man in a while I needed to know how Angelica was doing or if she was awake.

"Hello, Don."

"Is she awake?"

"Not yet but she will be soon."

"You had clearly said she was too awake in a few days, did you lie to me Dr?"

"No don her progress has been steady and she's showing signs of regaining consciences, she will awake soon don."

"I'll be in New York soon."

"Yes, don."

Hearing her voice is something I've been anticipating for a while now. I couldn't wait to go home.

★★★★...

Angelica's POV.

Surrounded by darkness, I wished for nothing but death. Because only death would allow me to be with my mother.

"My angel?" I heard a voice that sounded too similar to my mother's.
Am I dead? Has someone finally listened to my pleas and taken me out of that cruel world or worse, the hell I grew up in?

"Mommy?"I answered while sobbing "are we finally free mommy?"
My mother's embrace surrounded me, it made me feel at peace it made me feel at home. I never realized how much I missed her till now.

"No my little angel, I am free but you are not."

"Wh..what?why?" I asked hurt, I didn't want to be alive I didn't want to be brought back to a world without my mother.

"My angel listens to me, I lived a full life you have so much to see, too much to feel, so many truths to discover, so much to avenge."

I realized she was right I had to make those horrible monsters pay one way or another.

"I don't want to do it without you," I responded.

"You have to my angel. And am always with you always watching you, I raised you to be a strong woman I know you will manage. Go my child, go and live life."

I was about to respond but I felt myself fall deeper into the darkness.
I expected to be in pain, but I wasn't instead I was met by a continuous beeping sound that irritated me to the core. I wanted to open my eyes and find out where that stupid sound was coming from, but they felt heavy. With my mother's words in my head, I started to slowly peel my eyelids open shortly regretting the decision and shutting them as I was filled with bright light.

"The light, "I croaked out "water?"

"Oh my, you're finally awake."I heard a voice say from somewhere in the room before I felt a glass placed on my bottom lip.

"It's water miss, your throat is dry drink some water and you will feel slightly better." the voice said again.
And he was right after drinking some water I felt better. I started to open my eyes again finally adjusting to the light in the room.

When my eyes opened fully, I discovered I was in the most beautiful room I have ever been in. The room was huge, clean but most importantly it was quiet. It was a quietness that that hell hole could never give me. There was a table with a computer and chair and a few books neatly placed. Next to it was a huge shelf with different types of books stacked to perfection, a door that leads to what I assume was a bathroom and another that must lead to a closet, I think. I let my eyes roam further and I saw doors that lead to a balcony. The whole room had a continuous grey, white and brown colour combination pattern. It was not too bright nor was it too dark it was beautifully designed, perfect even.

I tried to push myself up and just realized I was on a huge bed with the silkiest sheets I've ever laid on. My fingers did a little appreciation of the material beneath them. Where am I?

"Am so sorry Miss but you can't get up ."

"Who are you? Where am I ?"

"Am doctor Parker and you are in Don's mansion." He answered like I was supposed to know who the hell the don was.

"What do you mean mansion and who is the don?" I asked again.

"Oh my, that reminds me I have to tell the don you are awake ." He said while rushing out of the room leaving me alone with so many questions unanswered.

I needed to find out who this "don" was or if he would help me get revenge .no.no.no cancel that thought I can trust him I can't trust anyone what if he is part of the people responsible for my mother's death. I can't trust anyone not even the cops, I have to get out of here and get the revenge I need I can't stay here .no matter how beautiful this room looks I can't stay here.

I NEED TO LEAVE. I HAVE TO RUN AWAY.

sorry for the late update.
