"I didn't have an appetite," I said and he walked towards me.
I looked at his shirt and spots of stained blood littered the fabric. His knuckles were bleeding and his hands had dry blood on them.
Killer
He's a mafia boss Esmeray
You've heard what people like him do.
I looked at him and he licked his lips before cocking a brow up. I looked away as my heartbeat quickens.
"The chef already left," he informed and I look back at him.
"I can cook," I said
"I don't trust you remember, so why do you think I would let you leave this room?" he asked
"Please Steele just let me go," I said while looking at him.
He folds his arms, presses his tongue against his inner cheek, and rotates his jaw.
"Go on then little bird," he said and before I could leave he grabbed my arm.
"Don't be stupid," he said and released me. I hurried through the door and I went down the stairs while looking behind me now and then.
I needed to get out of this place.
I went in the opposite direction of the kitchen and run toward the main door while looking out of guards.
The moment my eyes fell on the large mahogany door I ran towards it. I opened the door and I ran outside.
Without thinking I ran down the stairs and ran down the driveway. I stopped at the large black gate.
I tried climbing the gate but failed. It had sharp pointy parts that makes it impossible to climb plus it was incredibly tall.
"Fuck," I cursed
"I say don't do anything stupid, you do something stupid. For a girl who says she reads, I would have expected that you'd be smarter,"
His voice came from behind me and I sighed in failure.
I wasn't even surprised.
Tears started running down my cheeks and I dropped to my knees.
"I just want to leave," I cried.

Those eyes
Those fucking eyes
"What did you think little bird? The third time would be a fucking charm and you would escape?"
Hot tears streamed down her beautiful face as sadness filled her eyes.
She looked broken when I was turned on.
Pssh I didn't cry about her tears
"I already told you Esmeray. You're a cute little bird in my cage and you aren't going anywhere," I said making her shake her head.
