Chapter 8
Matteo on the other side had a devilish smirk on his face, he sank into his seat taking a sip from his wine glass.
"I missed you guys so much." Olivia said but only got a smile from Sarah who was already filling a wine glass to give to Olivia.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Dawn," Olivia called out. She noticed the tension between the two men and her sister, probably Dawn was nervous and Stephan and Matteo wasn't one to back down in intimidating someone."I...I...I am..sorry," Dawn stuttered as she apologized and walked out as fast as her legs could carry her.
The contract. The warehouse.
The kidnap.
Everything started to come back into her head, she felt her hands shaking seriously from fear. Why was she afraid? Of course she was afraid, she ran down the stairs and pushed open the door bringing out her phone from her purse with her shaking hands. She dialed Roman's phone, he picked it and cut it. That was their agreement, that he would pick it, cut it and get his ass here on time.
She was in panic mode right now, her heart was pounding seriously in her chest, like it could rip out anytime soon.
She placed her hand to her chest trying to breathe normal, she moved through the dance floor and out of the club. It was just a bloody contract, wasn't it? But how was he here right now. Where they trailing her? But Olivia knew him, was he the man Olivia was head over heels in love with?
The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't handle the tension.
She stood outside the club waiting impatiently for Roman to come but she knew it did take a while for him to come. She started to feel really cold, she hugged herself at interval and checked her phone. She should have brought a sweater for this outfit.
She needed to get the fuck out of here, She wasn't sure Roman would make it here on time before Olivia or worst Stephan come out to look for her. She decided to get a cab and call Roman to meet her half way. She took a sharp turn and bumped into something hard.
"I..am..sorry," she apologized and stared up into Matteo's eyes.
This bastard.
She gulped slowly in fear, he removed his jacket revealing a gun strapped at his waist side.
"May I?" He said raising his jacket up. Dawn wanted to run away right now but the sight of that gun at his waist line, it was a warning to her.
She remembered him nearly blowing her brains out in the warehouse, and she knew with the way he was staring at her right now he would definitely not miss his shot if she decided to run.
He placed the suit over her shoulders when he didn't get a response from her.
Matteo adjusted the jacket over her shoulder slowly, from the way Dawn was glaring at him. He was sure she wasn't welcoming to the fact that he just placed his jacket over her, he was pretty sure she was cursing him right now. He slidded his hands down slowly, he felt her shiver at his touch which only made him smirk.
"A thank you would go a long way," he finally said after he was done. He only got a mean glare with gritted teeth from Dawn.
"What do you want?" He finally heard that her lovely voice. He wondered why that idiot had sent him to come and get her.
Oh right, he had to handle that little slut.
He took the last drag from his blunt, threw it on the ground and crushed it with his right feet slowly.
"How was your little get away?"
"Non of your business, now what do you want?" Dawn asked again, she didn't know what he wanted from her and the thought of it was scaring her. Was he going to kidnap her like the last time? Even if he was, she wasn't going to let him succeed so easily. She was going to try all her best to fight back.
For goodness sake she didn't even owe them any bloody thing.
Oh shit. June. She hadn't found June as she promised. Was this what this was about?
A black car drove in front of them, Matteo opened the back door and motioned her to get in.
"I am not getting in, I have asked you what do you want?"

"We had a deal Miss Hemlocks, and if I remember clearly you didn't meet up to the deal." Matteo reminded her.
"I didn't agree to the stupid deal, you both force me."
"What?" She heard Matteo burst into laughter, she hadn't seen him laugh before but he looked different when he did. More handsome and his teeth. Did he get them whitened? They looked so lovely. What? Why was she thinking about this bastard teeth and his pretty face, Dawn pondered. She needed to concentrate and not get distracted.
"Get in Miss Hemlocks, I don't do well when it comes to patience." He warned.
Dawn stared at him a little longer then at the opposite street, all she had to do was make a run for it but she wasn't sure how fast she would get in her heels plus she didn't trust Matteo not to use his gun on her. Matteo knew what she was thinking.
"You could run if you like, should I give you a head start?"
"What?" Dawn was surprised by what he was saying, she decided it wasn't a good idea. It was just a car ride, probably she could talk her way out of this. Maybe being resistant would only get her into more trouble. "Can I at least message my driver not to come again."
"Get in now," he was furious.
Dawn got in immediately but from her slow pace, Matteo could tell she was still weighing her options to run or not to run away.
Matteo got in after she finally settled in and tapped the driver, who started the engine.
"You look lovely Miss Hemlocks," Matteo said and he meant it. He had thought she was just a bag of potato but turned out she wasn't. The way the cloth hung to her body. Stephan had a lot on his hands with this one.

"Th... Yeah," Dawn replied. She wanted to say thank you, but she didn't. She didn't look at him but straight ahead, she could feel his gaze on her. She wondered where they were going. "So let's play a little game."
Seriously! A game, right now in the middle of this tension.
"You will ask me three questions, and I will answer them truthfully."
"What's the catch?" Dawn didn't trust the idea of this game, signing that contract that she still didn't know the content was enough trouble. The last thing she needed was another issue. "There is no catch, only that I will get to ask you three questions as well in return," he chimed. "Which you will also answer truthfully as well."
"How will I know you are being honest with me?" Dawn finally looked at him.
"So you do have questions?" He smiled.
Don't smile you idiot. Stop distracting me.
She looked away again then looked back.
"Ladies first, come on. Make it worth it thou."
Three questions? What was she going to ask him, she didn't have much time to think straight and even if she requested for time to think she wasn't sure Matteo would give her more time to think. "Did you follow me all the..."
"Don't flatter yourself," Matteo interrupted her. "Do you think I don't have any important thing to do that I would waste my time chasing you. I knew where you were all along, but Stephan thought it was best to handle business first but as fate will have it you walked up to us yourself."
"How did you know all along?"
"Is that your second question Miss Hemlocks?"
