“It’s time for your punishment babycakes” the guy spoke walking towards me, like he was a lion and i was his prey. Tears streamed down my face my body swollen and aching, blood dripping down my back.

“No no please no” i jerked awake looking around in panic when i noticed i was in a dark room alone covered in bandages all around.

“Its just a dream”

“Its just a dream”

I kept repeating to myself, i took a deep breath and looked around when i saw a note on the bedside table, i picked it up from under the glass and read it.

“Hey issabella, don’t worry you’re safe here , i found you at the warehouse, im sorry i can’t be there right now but i will be soon. I had the doctor check up on you, there are prescribed medicine’s on the table, please take them and you can use my clothes incase you want to shower. See you soon.”

I took a deep breath trying to calm my nerves, the person seemed safe, but trusting anyone was hard, maybe I should run away what if the person hurt me.

'No issabella you're safe now and completely patched up you're just a bit paranoid' my subconscious is most probably right I'm safe now.

I picked up the tablets and gulped down with the water, letting the cold water flow down my dry and hoarse throat. I moved the silk sheet to the side and got up but instantly regretted it as pain flooded throughout my body.

“Ahh” i muttered tears pooling in my eyes. Slowly and carefully walking to door in front of me, i saw a walk in closet next to the large bathroom.

I walked in the bathroom and almost broke down when i saw myself in the mirror, the marks, swollen face, bloodied bandages on my hand. This is all my fault. I shook my head blinking repeatedly drying up the tears, slowly and carefully i removed the bandages disposing them and removing my clothes walking in the shower. I turned the knob to cold and let the water wash over me. My lips trembled as i thought of what the bastard did to me. The marks stung from the water but soon my heart rate calmed down as i felt the coolness of the water pour over me.

Taking a 20 minutes shower i walked out wrapping a towel around me and saw myself in the mirror, not able to stop myself i cried, i cried for the helplessness i felt, i cried for the pain i felt, i cried for the hate for myself and lastly i cried for myself. I broke down sliding down the floor clawing at my heart wishing the pain would just go away.

After a while of crying all that could be heard were my hiccups. Slowly i stood up and washed my face, taking a deep breath i walked out of the bathroom into the closet and saw some guys casual clothes. I picked up a large jersey and basketball shorts. Putting them on i walked out the bedroom in search for some water, walking around the house i finally found the kitchen.

I saw a lady in her 50s cooking some food, ignoring the pain and limps, I walked towards her and tapped on her shoulder. She turned around with the knife in her hand pointed at me I walked backwards, hand in surrender motion”woah” I exclaimed “oh dear forgive me I thought it was someone else” she said keeping the knife aside. “Its alright, if possible could i get a glass of water?” I asked slowly letting my hands down.

“Ofcourse darling give me a second” she walked towards the fridge and poured me some water and passed it to me. “Once again I really am sorry” I gave her a small smile and shook my head taking the water glass from her gulping it down, quenching my thirst.

“Forgive me for asking you this, but how did you get the marks” she asked, I paled a little thinking about last night the tears once again resurfaced, my body shook, i opened my mouth to answer when i heard a deep voice from behind.

“It’s not important” i turned around and saw the most beautiful guy i had seen. He walked around with a strong aura around him with slick black hair, light brownish grey eyes that matched woods walking tall with 6.5 feet tall height with a sharp jawline. He wore a black and white suit with silver rings and chain that complimented his skin.

I snapped out of my thoughts when he walked towards me and gave me a small smile, i heard the cook gasp “you finally smiled!” she exclaimed. I looked at her confused but suddenly she left the kitchen in a hurry leaving me alone with the hot guy.

Wait did i just call him hot!

Nope nope he’s not hot, he's average

Yup he’s average.

I came back to reality when i saw him waving his hand him front of my face.

“Hey” he spoke softly.

“Hi” i replied looking in his brownish grey eyes.

“Did you take your meds? Oh by the way im leo” i nodded and he sat beside me on the high chairs.

“I’m issa” i spoke after a few seconds this and replied

“I know” i looked at him confused, he noticed this and spoke

“Let me introduce my self properly” he said walking to fridge taking out some juice pouring it in two glasses. I accepted and took a sip

“I’m leonardo matteo giovanni, ceo of Giovanni industries and I was there at your ball yesterday” i spat out my drank on his suit and coughed, he ran towards me and patted my back, wiping my face with some tissues.

“Oh shit im so sorry” i panicked looking at his now orange suit.

“Hey hey relax im fine it’s just a suit it can be replaced, and by your reaction I'm sure your dad told you about me” he stated and i nodded. Dad did tell me about the famous italian billionaire bachelor that owned the richest company in italy. Our company came second in ranking. He was known to be quite a player and cold hearted person but looking at him now cleaning his suit with tissues with a small barely noticeable smile on his face, he looked nowhere near the definition of coldhearted.

“I truly am sorry” I mumbled looking down embarrassed.”

He shook his head “don’t worry about it, you know you would get along with my sister, she too has a tendency to spit out drinks on people” i knew he was teasing me because of the smirk on his face yet, I turned my head sideways to avoid eye contact. I looked away and took a deep breath.

“Are you okay?” he asked quietly, my face fell once again yet, I nodded. Shit my parents, mia , daniel. Fuck fuck fuckkk i need to call them.

“I-um-can i get a phone i need to call my parents?” i asked looking at him .

“Ofcourse i brought a phone for you it has my number in it incase you need it” he spoke taking out the new iphone out of his pocket.

“That wasn’t necessary” i mentioned, he shrugged and walked towards me planting a kiss on my forehead “ I'll leave you alone” he replied and walked out of the kitchen. I was shocked but broke out of my trance when my phone buzzed making me jump in fear, the scenes of last night came in my mind. I shook those negative thoughts away and dialled my dad’s number.

“Who the fuck is this and what do you want” his loud and hoarse voice spoke, i closed my eyes and sighed in relief, tears pooling in my eyes from happiness.

“Dad” i spoke it went silent for a while

“Belle?” he asked

“Sì papa,it’s me dad” i replied smiling

“Where are you belle, do you know how worried we were, your mom hasn’t spoken, mia and daniel are going crazy! Where are you belle?” his voice broke and so did my heart. I heard him sniffle and knew he was crying. I couldn’t tell him the truth he would break so i lied.

“Im sorry dad, i really am, i lost my phone and came to a friends house, i just got a phone, im really sorry dad.” i replied shedding a few tears myself.

“Its fine you’re okay that’s all that matters” he replied calmly.

“I love you dad, ill be home soon, tell everyone i love them”

“I will”

“Bye dad”

“Bye mi amour”

I ended the call and wiping my face but once again I broke down, it’s all my fault i shouldn’t have ran, i should have stayed.

My eyes blurred and i could feel my throat closing, black spots blurred my vision , my body shook , i could feel someone speaking or maybe shouting in the background it was hard to say. I felt someone’s arms go around me and the person singing in my ears. I figured it was leo, i don’t know why but his voice calmed me, soon i felt myself coming back and my heart beat slowed down and my throat started opening up.

I looked up to see leo holding me by my waist sitting beside me on the floor moving my hair away from my face wiping my tears.

“Thank you” were my last words before i passed out
