Between Hell and Heaven

"Just beautiful" one of my attendees murmured taking a step back and taking in my appearance from head to toe. I stood up to look at my reflection in the mirror. Indeed I am looking beautiful, the most I ever had. And which girl wouldn't want to look the most beautiful on her wedding day? I spun around, making my gown go twirl and swirl accordingly. It felt like I am spreading sparkle everywhere I am moving, the same sparkles are shining in my eyes too. Smile is not ready to leave my lips and why it should? After all I am going to get hooked with the man of my dreams. "Ma'am, it is time" one of the attendees interrupted. "Ok" I am excited about my wedding and I want to marry him as soon as possible. They all walked behind me taking the tail of my gown in their hands. As I reached down my brother took my hand to escort me to the stage. I moved my eyelashes to have a prope

Elena's POV It is been two weeks since that dreadful incident which stole my peaceful and carefree sleep for nights. His last words kept ringing in my ears and roaming in my mind. His hazel orbs went on haunting me for nights. I have never been traumatized by anyone in this way. I was always the one who picks up a fight and never lose it. Then why am I scared of him? He cannot do anything to me. It was just an empty threat as I haven't seen or heard anything from him after that day. And I pray that I never get to face him ever again. I have decided to take my life a little seriously and these days I was working on upgrading my CV. I have applied for many jobs and I am waiting for my CV to get shortlisted and a company to reach out to me. Yawning, I stretched my hands and legs. My body is aching as I am sitting in the same position for a long time with my laptop on top

Elena's POV I woke up with the chirping of birds. As I turned to my right the sun rays hit my face. I guess I forgot to shut the window last night. Sun rays were making it difficult for me to open my eyes at once. Groaning, I blinked twice and adjusted my eyes to the light. My stomach growled as I sat on the bed reminding me of last night's incident. It is because of that devil that I didn't eat enough last night. Most of the time his eyes were on me and I had a constant fear that he will pull a stunt anytime in front of my family. Strangely, I woke up so early. It is just 9:00 AM. Lazily I stood up and forced myself to the bathroom. After getting ready for the day, I stepped outside just to give Raine a shock. She was not expecting me in the kitchen so early. It is not her fault though! "Oh! My Ella is awake!" Mom chirped.  "I guess today it is going to rain" Raine passe

Neel's POV After I listened to my sister's story, I was boiling in anger, but Ella and Raine stopped me from taking any action in anger. They have asked me to talk to him with patience because they are worried about me as I am going unarmed and he could do anything to me. There is no doubt that he is a dangerous man. So, I have decided to talk to him with calmness as any wrong move could be proved harmful to my family. And I don't want him to hurt my family in any way. I have already committed the biggest mistake of my life by trusting that man and taking help from him. Now I can't afford any other mistake from my side which could take me and my family in another problem.     His office is situated in a deserted place which alone can make someone suspicious. The environment surrounding his office is giving nothing but creepy vibes. It is guarded by men that are wearing black suits and armed with guns. It felt like I am going to enter a

Elena's POVForgetting him and his threats I focused on searching for a job. I have passed these two days under a constant threat of him attacking my family and have taken a breath of relief at the end of the day when everyone is inside the house, safely. I have an interview today with a company and I really hope that this time everything goes well and I get this job. The kind of response I am getting from the companies after the interview is depressing. I am getting tired of giving interviews and sitting in the exams. But I won't leave hope in any case. The only thing I could do is hope for the best. "Miss Elena Roy" the girl who was announcing the name of the person who is next on the list for an interview, called my name. "Here" I stood up with a smile on my face and confidence in my voice. I stepped towards the interview room but before I could reach the door the same girl who announced my name stopped me.
