Sheila's POVI quickly wrapped a robe around myself, as I ran down a flight of stairs in a bid to catch up with André. We were both following closely behind Marco.We finally got to a portion of the mansion that I had earlier been informed, was out of bounds. It was like some sort of dark, deserted basement. I tried to slow down, not really sure if I should follow them down there but André suddenly grabbed my arm, pulling me along with him.We finally got into the basement and my eyes were widened to see a young man, lying on the floor and trembling violently. He looked to be having some kind of seizure... only he kept stopping for a while to look around and scratch his body. "He suddenly started this." Marco said to André, point at the man."You drugged him?" André asked, making Marco shake his head before answering in the negative."We were just questioning him before he started... whatever this is." Marco answered, looking really confused."Maybe he OD'ed on something?" André aske
Sheila's POVIt's been over two weeks since we last spoke, myself and André. Two weeks of him being extra busy with work and his mafia duties. He would come back really late on some nights, retiring to his bedroom and locking himself up in there. On some other nights, he won't come home at all. I didn't really know why but I was worried. Somehow, I felt like he had been avoiding me because of what that man said, weeks ago. He was trying to keep his distance from me.At the moment, I decided that an alone outing will do me some good. I needed to clear my head, after all that had been happening recently. I was dressed up in a real simple outfit, with a face cap to offer more disguise. The last thing I needed was a group of paparazzi and bloggers running after me with cameras and microphones.I took a taxi like every other regular person, a thirty minutes drive to my favorite coffee shop around town. Would have loved to bring Harley along but she absolutely despises coffee.I finally got
Sheila's POVI nervously fidgeted with the hem of my blouse, as I sat quietly in the front seat of André's car. I couldn't bring myself to say anything or to look right into his direction because as far as I could tell, he was pretty pissed. I wanted to ask him how he found me but suddenly decided against it.He had his hands on the steering wheel and his eyes straight up ahead. I saw his grip on the steering tighten a couple times and his jaw muscle was constantly ticking... something he does when he is pissed."So... beautiful day huh?!" I blurted out, totally surprising myself. What a stupid way to break the silence.André still kept his eyes on the road, clearly not wanting to have that conversation with me or any other conversation at all. He probably thinks of me as some snitch or something. Maybe he was thinking I purposely met up with the detective to rat him out. I frowned at the thought."I didn't tell him anything." I said, daring myself to look at his face. He was still f
Sheila's POV"Yasss girl!!!" Harley squealed, spanking my behind playfully, as I walked out of the room. I heard Madeline giggle from inside and I turned around to give Harley a death glare.Madeline and Harley had just taken their time to doll me up because I was going on a date with André tonight. I was wearing the most ridiculously, expensive dress I've ever owned, a high slit exposing my thigh every now and then, as I walked. My hair had been neatly styled and make-up done so well, that I could hardly recognize myself in the mirror. This was my first official date ever and I was trying my best not to appear nervous."Come on! Let's not keep your man waiting." Harley smiled, dragging me along with her, down the hallway. She seemed to be way too excited about this.Madeline was following right behind us, her tablet in hands, as she took numerous pictures of me. I looked back at her and frowned. Wasn't this way past her bedtime already?"Hey! Go to bed!" I waved my hand at her dramat
Sheila's POVGetting into yet another one of André's cars, the ride to the venue of our date was pretty cool. I was enjoying the music he played, as we zoomed past some really beautiful, nightlife sceneries. We didn't take too long to get there and André was quick to hop out and hold my side of the door open for me. My heart literally fluttered.We immediately had a couple cameras flashing at us and it startled me for a moment, before André placed his hand on my lower back. The cameras didn't bother me anymore. It was like having physical contact with André suddenly boosted my confidence. I noticed that André brought body guards along but this time, they kept their distance, like he ordered them not to let me notice them or something. He kept narrowing his eyes at some of them, from time to time and I decided to just ignore André already made reservations, so someone just led us past the crowd of onlookers and photographers outside, till we entered into the main building. It was one
André's POVI slowly picked up the ring from the floor of the restroom, feeling fear and anger take over me. First, her shoes were left on the corridor, now her ring, the same ring I gave to her tonight. There's no way Sheila would just take them off... unless.. she was taken. Somebody had taken my wife and they'll fucking pay for it.Tightening my fist with the ring in my grip, I felt my anger rise by the second. Fuck! I should have just followed her to make sure she was safe. I let out a pained, aggressive yell, stretching my arm to punch the mirror in front of me. The object shattered at the impact, lodging tiny shards of glass into my fist and making me bleed. However, I felt nothing. Nothing compared to the pain of losing Sheila.I could hear the commotion from outside dying down. The restaurant had been completely evacuated by my men already. There was no need for everyone of those people to see the other side of André Wolfe, the mafia side. Now that they're all gone, I'll turn
Sheila's POV I scrunched up my nose at the stench of cigarettes, suppressing my urge to cough. Gosh! I really hate when people smoke around me.Lifting my head to observe my surroundings, I noticed a lot of boxes around me, like I was in some sort of warehouse and I frowned. My hands were tied to the chair I was sitting on and I desperately tugged at the ropes."It's useless to struggle." A familiar voice suddenly spoke up from behind me, making me pause. I tried to turn around slowly, as I heard him approach. It was him, Harris. He was the one who kidnapped me... and put something in my drink."You! Why are you doing this?" I gritted my teeth at him, as he finally stood before me. He smiled."Oh, don't take it too personal." He said, bending down to my level and brushing my cheeks with the back of his hand. I felt myself recoil at the sudden contact and that made his grin even wider. He reeked strongly of cigarettes."Once your dear husband gets here, I'm sure we can ...talk things
Sheila's POV"Don't you dare take another step!" I seethed at Dylan, who just smiled at me."Stay right there.""Why... aren't you happy to see me, love?" He asked, taking slow steps towards me regardless.I looked around, noticing a large, double door in front of us. I would have to run down a small flight of stairs, run past some large, wooden boxes before I'd finally get to the door. There's no way I'll be able to successfully make that run, even though I was desperately feeling the urge to. I mean I was practically standing in front of Dylan, who I grew up together in the orphanage with. We grew up to be in love with each other, planning to end up together. I should go to him, wrap my hands around him and cry to him about how much I've missed him but for some reason, warning bells kept ringing in my head. That old Dylan was definitely gone.I was staring at someone that felt like a shell of his former self. I couldn't quite explain it, the aura around him was... predatory. We use
