Chapter 14
I woke up.
Again.
For the fourth time in two days I guessed. But still I felt nothing except fear, hate, anger and intense hunger. I didn’t remembered when was the last time I ate. I looked around and found nothing new. I was in this same dark room I previously was.
The curtains were opened now and the bright light emitting from sun was entering the room from glass windows making it look somewhat serene and was doing good in calming my senses. I got up from bed and halted in my steps when a sudden wave of blackness hit me. I tried to grabbed onto something for support but end up falling terribly on the ground. I groaned in pain. With great difficulty, I tried again. This time I was successful.
I sat next to window and a small smile made its way on my lips when I saw various, colourful flowers dancing with the wind. In my world, full of grief and pain, these flowers were the only things which were keeping me sane, and heart at tanquility.
The garden was beautiful unlike this place and I felt this sudden need to touch them but I knew I wouldn’t be able to. The room was locked from outside. The windows were locked. And here I was sitting near window, admiring the garden from afar and criticising my fate. By looking at flowers, my half of the pain vanished. I didn’t knew why but I was happy about that. How I wished I could be there with flowers and I could touch them.
But my little happiness lasted for only few moments, when I heard the door unlocked and there come a maid. It was same maid who was in the dining room other day. Wait, what was her name?
Samantha….
No
Something like Sandy…
Oh yeah Sandra!
“Good morning, my lady” she greeted. I looked at her bewildered. I sat at my spot frozen observing what she was doing. And that was when I saw her placing a plate full of food on the bedside table.
“You should eat, my lady. You haven’t eaten anything.” she said with worry lacing her voice.
Looking at food made my stomach growl. I bet she heard, because a small chuckle escaped her mouth. I looked away embarrassed. She turned away and exited the room. And locked it from outside. I kept looking at plate at food.
No!
I won’t eat. What if food is drugged. I looked away. And kept looking outside. I sighed as I continued looking at flowers. There were roses, tulips, orchids, jasmines, china rose, marigold, sunflower. Every colour of flower was present.
Sunflower was looking just like a donut. And roses were red just like strawberries. And…
Get a grip Sarah. I looked at table again and sighed again.
The food on table was calling me.
Okay just drop it and eat!
I stood up from my spot and made my way towards the table. The aroma of food entered my nose and that’s when I lost it. I was hungry. Very very hungry.
I picked up the plate and sat on bed and positioned the plate on my lap. I took a healthy mouthful of pasta on spoon and brought the food near my lips. A moan escaped my lips when the flavours of spices bursted on my tongue. I closed my eyes in bliss.
It was delicious, I must add.
I finished everything within minutes. And licked my lips savouring last of food remains. It was like I was hungry for decades.
I put the plate on table and made my way towards bathroom.
I should take a bath, probably.
I stripped off naked and put my dress on sink. I brushed my teeth and entered into shower. The warm water hits my cold body. And I closed my eyes enjoying the moment. I washed off all the dirt and sweat off me.
After taking a bath of good twenty minutes, I exited the shower and dry myself with towel. And that’s when I realise, I had nothing to wear.
Well great.
I groaned in frustration. I took a bathrobe from counter and exited the bathroom and screamed when I saw a maid standing near the bed.
“Your clothes, my lady.” She said and exited the room. I stood there frozen unsure of what to do. Okay that’s great.
I picked up the dress and frowned. It was simple but a bit out of my comfort zone. It was white in colour barely reached my mid thigh with frills on bottom. The back was bare, backless with halter neckline.
I wore panties that were placed near the bed. They were white too. And wear the dress. I let my hairs down to hide my back. I put the bathrobe in bathroom and again sat near window. Well that’s my new favourite spot in this gloomy room.
Why was this happening to me?
Why was I here?
What was this place?
Who was he?
Why did Falcon betrayed me?
Why was my father here?
All of these thoughts were eating me alive. I wanted answers but to no avail.
I nearly screamed when the door to the room suddenly opened. I turned around and scowled in frustation.
“What are you doing here?” I snarled at him. I didn’t wanted to see his face. He disgusted me. Couldn’t he left me alone. I was already in this hell hole only because of him.
He didn’t said anything but kept looking at me. He was looking…
Guilty? No! he couldn’t feel guilt, no remorse. He was heartless just like rest.
“Your presence is needed… Please, behave.” he requested.
Like hell I was going to come with him.
Like reading my thoughts he come near me and picked me up by my arm and start dragging me towards the hallway.
“Leave me alone. Why are you doing this?!” I screamed but he was unfazed by this. He kept dragging me. And I had the feeling of deja vu.
Remembering the last time, he dragged me along this hallway and I ended up fainting because of those red eyes.
I screamed louder but all my pleas were not doing anything. We reached same large doors and he opened the door and dragged me along. I punched, screamed, thrashed in his hold but all went in vain.
And that’s when I realised we were in same room, but this time the room was not that dark, the darkness was still present even though. All the memories of this room came in front of me like a movie. My body went in panic mode. My breathing shortened. My hands started trembling. I was overall scared.
“Leave.” his dark, cold, dominating voice roared around the room and thats when I realised he was telling Falcon to leave.
No! no! no! I wouldn’t stay here, I wouldn’t stay anywhere near him. With this thought I made a run towards the door but it was already too late.
The door was locked. Realisation hit me like ice cold water.
Falcon left me in this room with this cold hearted monster. I felt his eyes on me, watching me intently, observing my every move. He was behind the desk, I knew but I couldn’t see him. I took a step back, then other and again other. I stopped when my back hit the door.
I was shaking like a leaf, like a puppy. The room lit itself. The chandelier were glowing now. The lights were on. And I could see him now.
He was exactly behind the desk with his arms on table. He was handsome, I must say but he was a nightmare dressed like daydream. His eyes were in his usual blue grey colour. He was looking rather…
Amused?
Even though his dark aura was still suffocating me.
He stood up from his chair and made his way to me. I gulped in fear. I didn’t wanted him to choke me again.
I didn’t know what came into me as I turned around and tried to open the door again. Of course it was locked, I knew. But I didn’t get time to register what happened next.
Everything happened in blur. He moved with speed of light. One second he was near the table and in another he was behind me. His fist slammed the door almost smashing my face with it. I could feel him behind me.
He caged me with both of his hands on either side of my head. His hands firmly placed on door in front of me. My back pressed against his front. I could feel his hot breath near my ear.
“Go ahead, open it.” he whispered like almost daring me to touch the door.
Oh god! why is this happening to me?!
I shivered from his close contact. He swiftly turned me around so that we were now chest to chest.
Well not chest to chest, he was too much taller than me.
He grabbed my chin between his thumb and forefinger and tilted my head up and leaned in. He embedded his head in my neck and inhaled deeply. I was glued to the floor. I didn’t know what to do. I was scared, terrified.
His lips touched my neck and I gasped as electrical sensations passed through me. I brought my hand on his chest and tried to push him but he almost immediately capture my both hands and pinned them above my head. I start thrashing in his hold.
“P-please let me-let me go.” I said shakingly. He paid no attention to my words and kept licking my neck. I screamed when he sucked a particular spot near my collar bone. I was struggling to get out of his grip but he had other plans.
His grip on my wrists tighten and he started kissing my neck vigorously. He pressed his lips on my jaw kissing there, then moved again to my neck.
“What Do y-you want?” I asked with shaking voice. I was afraid what he might do to me.
He chuckled but didn’t stop his assault on my neck.
“I want so many things.” He whispered dangerously. “I want your mind, your strength,” his one hand grazed the hem of my dress and he said, “I want this up,” and again moved his hand inside my dress and tugged the hem of my panties. I shivered from sudden contact. “And I want them down.”
I was in hyperventilation mode. I was beyond scared. My breathing shortened as his lips start moving towards my jaw. He kissed there and move them towards my lips. I was pinned against the door. His one hand holding both of my wrists while his other hand was inside my dress, tracing the hem of my panties.
He kissed the corner of my mouth and looked in my eyes. He must have felt fear in them. His eyes were gery with specks of blue in them. That much I could made out.
I strated panicking when distance between us shortened. But then unexpected happened.
He pulled away immediately like being near me could burn him. But I was thankful for that. His grip loosened. I breathed in relief.
He kept looking at me. His gaze make me uncomfortable. I was happy that atleast he was away from me. He looked down at me with intensity, probably contemplating what he should do.
But that’s when it happened. Next moment I found myself being pinned to the door as his lips crashed against mine. I stood there frozen. Complete silence in my head.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
He was..
He was kissing me.
His lips moved against mine aggressively. He just greedily claimed my lips and moved his hands all over my body, not even gently, very harshly and aggressively and freely. My eyes widened.
I tried to moved to left but his arm on side prevent me from doing so. I tried to push his arm off me. He didn’t let me. I tried to move my head so that I could pull away but he growled almost inhumanely. His lips trailed down on my neck. He licked a spot near my collarbone and I whimpered. I again tried to move off but he slammed me against the door. And then he slammed me again until I start feeling pain all over my body. My body weaken with the impact.
“Don’t, please!” I cried in agony.
He plunged his lips back into mine and again kissed me hungrily, shutting me off.
I started feeling dizzy. Only one thought was in my mind.
Why, why me?….
