Chapter one
Nora Robinson,a first class graduate of the most prestigious Harvard university, also with a degree in one of the largest business schools in the world I mean, Harvard business school Boston, I deserve an accolade you know right?, over joyed.
You go girl, Caroline Marcus, my cousin praised me, the loud music blasting out of the speakers, adding to the richness , and beauty of the exclusive VIP lodge the party was taking place, the excitement in the air was exquisite,as we swing our hips to the rhythms and melody of the music,it is an amazing sight to beyond.
It is really nice to be back home, taking a sip from the glass of Champagne in my hand.
It is really nice to have you back Annabelle and love, dancing closer to me, I have missed you ladies, I said barely audible.
Swaying in time with the rhythms,as we sang along,CUFF IT By Beyonce, played repeatedly.
You have slept for too long,a worried voice spoke across the room, my eyes flash opened as I try to sit up, recognizing the voice at once dad I tried saying, but I felt a great pain on my head, with my two hands place on my head,i could feel my head burning, it hurt so much, just relax and closes your eyes,my dad commanded with a strict voice , how many times have I warned you to stay away from alcohol, but you refused to listen to me he scolded me with displeasure.
The door opened a maid came into the room with a bowl of water with a small towel.Kim, my personal maid, stood close to me resting my back on some pillows. She helped me sit.
As the wet towel touched my face I felt the coldness of the water relaxing and refreshing.
I think she has caught cold,sir. so let me call the doctor.
She will just take some painkillers, that will be all,doctor Sam, our family doctor assured my dad, as I just watched.
"You must not try this again",I am sorry.
In the next few days,I was in doors as my dad gave strict orders for me to be reminded in my room,I had no objection because I really needed it. School was very stressful,at twenty five, I just graduated from Harvard business school, the labour market was already opened for me.
That is another conversation my dad has refused to listen to.
I wanted to start my own company, daddy has paid a deaf ear to my request,I have more than enough companies, and businesses for you to take over, he always reminded me.
I have an elder brother,he will take over the companies not me, this has always been my defence, but since my brother has refused coming back to home, there is no escape route for me, Patrick Robinson my beloved elder brother, has refused to come live with us, even as he schools at the university of Michigan, studying medicine and surgery, he's too soft to handle dad's temperament so he stayed away.
Dad has always wanted him to study business so he could take over the family businesses .But he went and pursued his career as a medical doctor, which did not go well with dad, they were always arguing and so he refused to come live with us.
Coming out of my room the aroma of a freshly baked bread came rushing into my nostrils, making my tummy sing at loud and my mouth salivating, I have not eaten since morning, but it was already lunch time, walking closer to the kitchen two maids came standing by my side, what should you want to eat madam?
Do you want me to help you with anything? the other one asked .
I waved my hand, dismissing them, get me Kim I instructed them so I worked back to the living room, immediately Kim came running to see me,
You are awake ma, how are you feeling now? Do you still want some painkillers?.
Am fine Kim, just get me my food, yes ma, she hastily left heading back to the kitchen.
I have never entered that kitchen neither do I know where things are kept in the kitchen. I found myself thinking about it.
It does not matter, what will I be doing in the kitchen? Where we have up to ten workers in the same house as me, the house is that big.
The food is ready ma,Kim brought me back to reality,as I stood up and followed her to the dining room, The varieties of food I saw there was as if a feast was going on, who gave this order?,I ask. Did I ask you to prepare all these meals? I yelled at her, your father.
I asked her, dad interrupted Kim.
You may excuse us, good day dad, you shouldn't have bothered ,you don't have a choice Nora, you have not eaten since morning so start eating he commanded.
Sitting close to me,it seems as if someone was watching me,I raised my head to see dad staring at me. I quickly stopped eating, dad what is it?
I just spoke with your brother and he will soon be back home, he said but there was this other thing in his mind that he has not said ,as a mind reader that I was,i will wait for him to continue but he stopped.
Dad spilled it already ,I know there's something you wanted to say apart from my brother coming home, so let me hear it.
You know me so well he's sigh, You are going to the shopping mall to run some errands for me ,dad an arrand? for you? I was shocked.
When did I start running errands for you daddy?
Well it's not an errand but an order, what do you mean dad?.
You'll be taking over the leadership of the shopping mall, as the new executive director. so you'll be going there for inspection, after you done eating.
All right dad, I did not even argue ,or put up a fight. I just agreed and continued eating. He raised an eyebrow as if trying to ask why I did not protest, I pretended as if I did not see him, as I continued with the delicious meal Kim had prepared.
An hour later I was on my way to the shopping mall, on getting there the manager and some top staff were already waiting for me outside.
Welcome back from school, Mr Zack the manager said, first class graduate of Harvard business school ,you did so well, thank you Mr Zack can we all go inside to discuss the business of the day?.
Sure. Few minutes later, the head of staff was taking me on a tour around the shopping mall and its departments. The staff greeted me as I passed every department.
30 minutes later, the meeting was over as I was invited to my new office as the executive managing director of Brickyard, one of the best shopping malls in Chicago.
Carry my bag, I handed my bag over to a cleaner that walked past me,
He stopped and looked at me immediately our eyes meet I froze.

"You're a creepy bastard." His eyes smolder me and his answering grin is nothing short of beautiful. Deadly. "Yet you hunger for me. Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict. He didn't know her name, but he knew every inch of her skin, how it flushed when she climaxed, her favourite novel and that every night she contemplated suicide. He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned. There'd be bloodshed if he touched her, but the sight of blood always did fascinate him. * When Susanna flees from her husband, she stumbles right into the arms of her devilishly handsome neighbour with a brooding glare. He couldn't stand her, but she needed him, if she was ever going to escape her husband who now wanted her dead. Better the devil you know than the angel you don't. She should have recalled that before hopping into Zefiro's car and letting him whisk her away to Italy. Maybe then, she wouldn't have started an affair with him. He was the only man who touched her right, and the crazy man took no small pains in ensuring he would be the last.
For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
