She is the one by Asheslove (mobi reader android TXT) 📖

Leo looked at me trying to figure me out like I am somekind of puzzle.

'Then who is saying you to forgave him. You hate him and that's fine, he earned it but don't look so low and feel ashamed of yourself Elena because a side of you is attracted to him' he said softly.  

'Nicolas doesn't play dirty Elena, he doesn’t want to rape you or manipulate you, he thinks he owns you, he thinks he has every right on you and he wants to claim you as his. That's all what he wants and there is nothing wrong in this. For you it's all wrong because you don't think and feel the same way he feel for you but don't look down on yourself because his touch turn you on, there is nothing wrong in this because the man you enjoy having it with took you as his own. Don't intermix your physical pleasure and emotions together and stop being so hard on yourself'

'But I hate him; I hate him so fucking much for everything'

'Then hate fuck him. Tell me one thing, did you ever try to understand him'

'There is nothing to understand about him Leo, he's mental' I gritted.

'Here you are wrong. I told you earlier and I am telling you again he is not mental Elena. He love feeding his demons and knowing he can't conquer you they become more hungry increasing his craving and that's why he wants you to submit yourself to him completely so instead of fearing him face him. Don't make yourself a victim, you are not his victim, you are only victim of your own thoughts. You tried to fight him, you escaped him but nothing worked so now try to face him and return him back what he gave you. You fear him and this fear is what keeping you one step behind him. Think you own him like he owns you, you also have right on him the same way he thinks he have on you'.

'But...I...Don’t...I don't want to. I...just....’ I tried to put words but can't.

'You are left with no choice this time Elena. Last time you had a choice and reason both with you so you escaped him but now he has your family and if you want to go away from him, from all this you can do it. You posses power over him and it’s only you who can broke him. He belongs to you as much you belongs to him. You got right on him, he gave you that right, I know you don't want to but it's in your hands so use it against him instead of running away from him. You can't see Elena but you got control over him, the control he never let anyone take but he gave you and trust me it can bring him on his knees if you use it correctly instead of using it in fighting him. Fighting for yourself is not wrong Elena but everytime it's not necessary to fight. Sometimes not doing anything is a better way than to put a fight, it won't make you coward but gave you a clear sight'.

'You are really confusing me Leo' I said running my hand on face. 

He chuckled lightly. 'I am only telling you the reality Elena. There's always two sides of a coin so did Nicolas. There's nothing to justify his actions but instead of fearing and running away from him try to understand him, face him because that's the only way you can turn the tables in your favor and believe me it will be lot more easier than fighting him.'

I looked at him trying to understand and believe whatever he said. He is right, I shouldn't be this weak and pathetic but whenever I see him all I feel is fear and anger wanting to run away and hide somewhere far from him.

'Will you please tell me what he did to Julie and Chris Leo’? I pleaded.

'Nothing, he just wants to scare you, he send his men behind you friends that's all.' 

'What he did to Chris?'

'He is alive and fine now Elena, both of them are fine. I told you he had nothing to do with them but if you'll try to escape him once more they will not'.

'And my family'

He stiffened.

'They are safe, unharmed but confined in one place. He doesn't care about anything and the only reason he will keep your family alive is because he know that's the only hope you will cling onto. He can't believe you after your escape, can he?'. Leo smirked.

'Where -

'Elena'.

I stopped. This information is enough for now. 

I rested my head on his shoulder as he was driving. 

'You lied to me Leo. You all are criminals who work in mafia. I found about you people'

'So did we' he murmured softly.

I looked at his face in confusion without lifting my head.

'What do you mean?'

'Nothing. I never lied to you Elena. Remember, you asked me is he a businessman and I told you that he is which he really is'.

'But that's not what he all is, you didn't tell me you all work in mafia' 

'But that doesn't mean I lied to you' He said from a timid smile.

'Hu' I huffed.

'Don't you have tattoos on yourself like all others here? I mean most of you have' I questioned looking at his hands roaming my fingers on his hand which was gripping steering wheel.

'I used to have, but I removed them. Now only one is left, on the right side of my chest'. He said thinking deeply in his thoughts.

I wanted to ask why but not pushing him hummed in response closing my eyes. 

'We reached'. His voice came and I opened my eyes without lifting my head from his shoulder looking at his mansion.

'Don't worry baby girl, it will be fine' Leonardo said in a confronting way kissing the crop of my head. Even though I don't know it will be or not as whatever happened, after this there is no way my life will be back to normal ever again and things will be fine but it felt good to hear comforting words from someone.

'Now go, Lorenzo will give you the keys. Nicolas will not came before night' he said giving me comforting smile as I left the car. I watched as he turned his car and left. Whoever name was Lorenzo from the guards stationed in front of his mansion came to me and handed the keys.

Nicolas has closed all my ways this time and I am back in his cage. Whatever Leo explained me at least it gave a clarity to my thoughts making me think in other way than I used to showing me different perspective. Obeying and respecting him is now become prime because I no longer left with a choice as he have my family and it will also keep me away from physical injuries but submitting myself to him will give him control on my very self which is not acceptable by me. He wants me to play my part then I will play it this time but in return I have to make sure he also plays his, after all it's his game.
