Twenty-One

Giuliana

Wrists bound, duct tape over my mouth, I glared at Matteo as he hauled me to my feet. Behind the thin gray barrier, I swore a blue streak, but all that came out was a muffled cry. My curses were immediately cut off as Matteo wrapped one huge hand around my neck, his lean, strong fingers pressing into my pressure point. I let out a sharp shriek as pain radiated down my spine, and he forced my gaze to his.

“Do not push me, Giuliana. I promise you’ll regret it.”

With one last withering glare, he shoved me out the door. I threw a beseeching look at Johnny, but he avoided me completely, his expression cold as he directed his words to Matteo.

“Would you like an escort, sir?”

Matteo waved him off. “No. Stay here.”

I threw an angry glare in Johnny’s direction, but he was already moving away, presumably headed back to his normal post. What the hell was wrong with these men? Why would no one help me?

I stumbled in my heels as Matteo forced me through the mansion and out the front door. A car idled quietly out front, and my cousin opened the back door, then practically shoved me inside. I fell to my stomach on the buttery leather, and Matteo shoved me out of the way. My ass slid off the seat, and I landed on the floor with a jarring thump. I yelled at him from behind my binding, but he ignored me as he spoke to the driver. “Go.”

The car accelerated, throwing me off balance again, and I fought to catch myself. Before I could move, darkness descended over my face. I screamed out, and a pair of strong arms hauled me upward. Matteo settled me on the seat next to him, one hand on my bound wrists.

“It’s just a hood. You’ll be fine.”

Condescension dripped from his tone, and I turned a glare on him as if he could see my mulish expression. The glow of street lamps permeated the fabric as we flew down the street. Where the hell were we going? I shifted uncomfortably, my bottom and legs aching from his brutal spanking. I’d never felt so demeaned in my entire life, and I wanted to throttle him the second my hands were free.

Matteo remained silent, and the minutes bled away until finally the car slowed to a stop. “Stay here.”

I knew from the tone of his voice that he wasn’t talking to me; where the hell was I going to go anyway? Bound and gagged, a hood over my face, I wouldn’t make it ten feet on my own. Didn’t mean I wouldn’t try the first chance I got. The second he let down his guard, I was getting the hell away from these crazy assholes.

Cold air invaded the car as the door swung open, and suddenly I was being dragged across the seat again. Goosebumps broke over my skin as the wintry chill washed over me as he pulled me from the car and set me on my feet for a moment.
