FOUR

Two choices Mai. Two choices.

I was still limp on his shoulder while I would gasp for air. My hand messaged my neck while he walked down the hall casually. His hand was loosely around my thighs while he open the door.

"Do-" I coughed. "Don't." My voice cracked while I ended up coughing again. My body was too weak to move while he closed the door with his foot. I weakly picked up my head while I cleared my throat but it ended up hurting even more.

He ignored me while he walks somewhere I can't see. The room that he walked in is simple. A love seat in the corner and a desk with a simple lamp sitting onto of it.

"Vincenzo" my voice was hoarse while he pulled me off his shoulder. "Just kill me please- " his hand goes over to my mouth while my eyebrows furrowed and I slap his hand away.

I step back but I didn't know a bed was behind me, so my legs hit the end of the bed making me fall backwards.

"Damn. That fast Mai." He chuckles but he continues to stare me down.

"Listen." He walks away from me but ends up pulling a chair where the desk was and pulls it right in front of me. He sits on it backwards and rest his hand on the top of the chair.

"I'll like to make a deal." His voice flows through my body and I can't help but love the sound of it.

I narrow my eyes while I sat up. "And what's that? I get to choose how I die?" I gritted through my teeth.

He rolls his eyes, "if you got to choose how you die, it would both be a pleasure way because I do that to the women I kill." He smirks while my heart drops and my face pales.

"Anyway, I have two options for you." He cocked his head to the side while he watches me. I didn't say anything so he continued. "The first one is, you work for me-"

"Nope. Not going to happen." I saw his jaw clenched and he stared at me with a blank face.

"One thing you should know about me, and my men. Don't interrupt endless you want to die or get punished. So, like I was saying. Work for me as a bait. You're good looking, and easily can lure my enemies in for us to kill and take over their group. And-"

"If you're part of a mafia group, you can find someone to do it with experience! You're a fûckin mobster, gangster! Why do you need me! I reject, there is no way am I going to work for a mafia group!"

He looked me at with no emotion while his head cocked to the side and he raised an eyebrow. I grew confused and then I realized what I've done.

"No. No Vincenzo. I didn't mean-"

"So you're really asking to be punished. Good job in ticking off a mafia leader." He stood up while my eyes grew wide. I went to get off the bed but he threw the chair to the side and gripped my ankle pulling me back on the bed when I was almost off.

I kicked at him but his hand went to my thighs and pressed down, which made me laugh out loud.

One thing.

I'm only ticklish on my thighs.

"Stop!" I yelled when his hand went up to my hips, holding me down. I went to punch him but his hand quickly caught them, while he straddle my hips with his.

I squirmed around while he stared at me with a bored face. "Stop Mai. Let me finish and let's see if you still want to die. But remember what I said what I do to women I kill." He smirks while I tried so hard to hold back my tears.

"Okay, like as I was saying. You can be used as bait and one of these women will help you start to seduce a man. And now second option." I continued to stare at him while his hold on my wrist loosen a little but it was still a strong grip. "Be raped and then get killed." He cocks his head to the side and smiles. "So, what would it be Mai?"

"You're really not a man of good choices." I hissed out.

"I know. That's how I get what I want. So, the time is ticking Ever." He smirked.

"What would you choose Vincenzo?" I said while I tried to move my arm away but he didn't let that happen.

"For my choice, I'll live. So I'll go with option one." He said while his voice held amusement to it.

"Then you got your answer."

"Perfect. Another weapon I can use." He let's go of my wrist. "You can start today since I have a meeting in two days. I expect you to have it perfected by then." He gets off of me and starts to walk towards the door.

"Wait! In two days! That can't happen and you know that Vincenzo!" He looked behind his shoulder and shrugged.

"You will. With Erika you can." He smiles and then walks out leaving the door open for me to follow him.

"Wait!" I get off the bed and rush over to him and see his tall figure walking down the hall back to main floor.

"Vincenzo! I don't want to go back in there, and you know that!" I said while I finally caught up with him.

He stopped at the door we left when we finished watching . He looks to his left and looks down where I stood next to him staring up at him with a glare but inside I felt my stomach clench just the thought of going back in there.

"I didn't ask you to follow me, but you followed me out of the room. I never said, 'Mai, follow me.' You followed me by yourself."

I stood there silence because he's right. He saw how my face dropped so his lips went to a smirk. "You are something else, aren't you Ever Green." His fingers went under my chin and lifted it up while he leaned down. I jerked my head back but his hold tighten and brought me closer to him. I felt his breath fan my face and his green eyes burned holes in my face.

"Aren't you Ever?" He raised an eyebrow while his voice was stern and he waited for my answer.

"I don't know, you tell me." I hissed. He showed me his teeth when he smiled.

"I like to say you are. Okay, since you followed me, stay close to me this time and don't make eye contact with anyone. Okay, lets go." He then opens the door to main floor.
