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

'Hey brother, what took you so long' a brown haired man said to Nicolas getting up from the table before hugging him.

‘Who are these men’ I said pointing towards blonde and that brown haired guy who were looking a little boyish. Both of them hugged Nicolas like meet after a long time. 

'The one with brown hairs whom Nic is taking is Michael and other one is peter'.

‘And this woman?'

before Leo could reply Nicolas said something to them and now their whole attention was on me like I am some kind of alien came from different planet. Both the men gave a knowing look with their best smiles and the woman walked to me with grave yet dark expressions. Her eyes were dark brown and she was wearing a wooden beaded cross in her neck showing she must be a catholic.

‘Hello darling’ she said in a deep voice and brings her hand forward to me.

I grabbed Leo hand in mine and looked at Nicolas who was looking at me amusingly. 

I shake her hand with my other one when she said “I am Bethany” studying my face like already know what's in my mind.

Her personality and effect was strong and there’s an unusual dark aura around her emanating danger.

If it will be a normal situation then I must be quacking in my boots because of her intimating gaze on me and her personality showing how dark this woman is but because of drug in my system I don’t feel a little bit of fear.

 ‘I am Elena Blackwood’ I said confidently with my head high looking in her eyes. The eyes of whole room widen including Nicolas himself like I spit fire instead of saying my name.

She faintly smiled at me. 

‘You got yourself a beautiful woman Nicolas’ she said brushing my cheek from back of her hand with cigar in her fingers and turned his head towards Nicolas 

“and beauty is always very dangerous, the more you stay away from it much is better”.

I was looking at her awkwardly, I don't understand what she meant but it definitely has some double meaning.

‘Where is my girl Sophia’ she said going back to her seat taking a long puff from cigar. 

He said that he wants me to meet someone but it’s more like he wanted her to meet me.

“She’s coming” Edward said looking at me. I am not frightened from anyone or anything not from even the devil that is standing in front of me dressed in black suit instead of this crazy Edward who was looking at me like will murder me right away.

‘I heard someone has returned’ she said releasing the smoke in air.

‘Don’t worry we will take care of him before he will be manage to do anything’ Nicolas said in his strong authorized voice taking a seat beside her.

‘He already knew that and that’s why he will target all of you, especially you, Leonardo and his own daughter’.

Nicolas gave a sign to Leo and he took me out from their meeting. Good for me because whether they talk in English or Italian their internal talks were impossible for me to understand and with that the strong air inside that room was suffocating me.

‘You enjoy the party until we have a small discussion. It will be boring for you to stay there’

‘Come on Leo I am not foolish. I know you people were talking something private and don’t want me to know. You don’t have to act like this’ I blabbered taking the seat.

‘Nevertheless don’t worry about me. I am better here alone than staying in there. It was also hard for me to breathe inside because of the smoke circumambient in that room’.

He smiled and turned to leave but stop on his track when I asked “Are you people gangsters Leo”.

From a pleasurable smile he turned to face me ‘Huu, you can call us that if you want” and giving a wink he left.

“What does that mean?” I thought to myself, are these people gangsters, they can be, doesn’t matter. 

I was looking around me, everywhere the rich people chatting and drinking. This world is truly different from mine Nicolas was not wrong when he said that. I had never between rich people before and seen parties like this and now I am, it’s making me uncomfortable and I was felling weird and nauseous.

I went to washroom and there was no one besides me inside but when I was done and about to come out, I heard someone.

__________

 After they left I was nothing but surprised and shocked.

The whole time it was me who's being tricked, in this one month the whole time she was fucking lying. My sub conscience about her was not wrong. I felt betrayed and cheated. Everything was lie, the concern, the comfort the sympathy, they were all fake. Tears flooded in my eyes but I hold them back.

 Sometimes wrong way shows the right paths. All the time it was her who lied to me, played with my emotions and broke my trust.

But great because occasionally things happen for my own good and since I knew the reality it will be more easy for me to escape. Now this lie is what going to help me in escape.

I came out from the washroom back to the chair where Leo left me and thinking about what I was going to do next I put my head on the table and closed my eyes.

‘Hii Elena, finally I got a chance to meet you’

I opened my eyes and lifted my head up to saw a young woman with red hairs, thin lips and long face. Her facial expressions were gruesome and she somehow looked cunning.

‘Do I know you?’ I asked surprisingly because the way she said my name it seems like she knew a lot about me but she was a complete stranger to me.

“No you don’t but I know you” her voice was sharp and pointing.

‘I knew you were kidnapped and is held captivated forcefully'.

And this took me off guard as my eyes widen in surprise. She doesn’t look like Italian her English accent was more like American but how did she knew this.

‘Who are you and how do you know this?’ I asked narrowing my eyes.

She leaned her back comfortably on chair and with an evil smirk looked at me. Man, she is truly dangerous.
