Scarlet Betrayal: Love and Deception in the Mafia's Embrace

“Am I in heaven?” I thought, but then, when has a stripper ever made it to heaven? I was sure I was on the passageway to hell. The thought of still being among the living was far from me because I knew that was impossible. I opened my eyes slowly; everything was blurry at first, but I could see bright white lights. "I made heaven after all."My vision became clear, and I saw Zach's face. 'Nope, I'm definitely in hell'."You are awake," he said."How am I alive?" Tears almost came out of my eyes."What were you thinking when you jumped into the river? You wanted to end your life." He asked."Yes, I did. Did you want to volunteer to help me?" I asked him, and he went mute."How did you find me?" I asked."I'm a fuckin ma..." he paused, and he didn't say anything else. I was currently lying on my bed. I really couldn't believe I was back to square 1 with this awful demon."Why...why did you save me?" I asked; he could have left me to face my death. "Because you are mine, you don't get to die until I say so, Papaya," he said.
