I woke up to the sound of a gunshot. My heart jumped in my chest along with me on my place. My eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the bright sun rays peeping through the broken window.
Blinking multiple times, I tried to focus on my surrounding, the first thing that came into my vision was Raphael's very tense face.
I sat up in my place immediately and adjusted my gown. The sun has risen to its full glory telling the world that it is a bright new day.
But by the way, gunshots are deafening my ear one after the another, I think we are not going to have a good morning.
One bullet came from the broken window and crashed against the front wall. I was about to scream at the top of my lungs when Raphael placed his hand over my mouth, killing my ear-piercing shriek in my throat.
My eyes were wide, my heartbeat was doing the marathon and my palms were going sweaty and numb out of fear.

The house in which they are living is very small and is made up of wood. It is in the middle of the deserted area hidden with trees and bushes from all directions. It is very hard for anyone to reach here and find out about this place.I dropped the bags on the floor and a wild fr

He closed his eyes in dismay and took his hand back along with his will to speak his heart out. I was disappointed too. Her timing is wrong."I am sorry if I disturbed you"She apologized as she suspected the tension in the environment and was about to turn when I stopped her."No auntiji, it is completely fine. Please come"I smiled to welcome her. This will be very rude if we let her go just like that.She stepped in and walked to us."I was here to give you pain killers"She stood in front of us and gave me the tablets and a glass full of water.

Is everything fine?" Raphael asked when he found his wife low in energy. "I just get tired of running behind the culprit all day long" she answered him. "Culprit?" His eyebrows knitted in confusion "When did you join the police?" He asks still standing on the door. "Your hundred culprits can not complete my one as mine is no less than a terrorist" Raphael was still confused with the words of his wife, this is when she took a step aside to show him the actual culprit.

The anxiety and nervousness are at their peak. My palms and feet are numb and my head is so full of thoughts that I can't think anything specific. The only thing that my heart is chanting like a mantra is that every time this day should not turn out to be a dream. I want it to be a reality. Strong emotions have overpowered me, making me feel surreal. We have kept the wedding very simple as our families are small. My family has arrived two days back and Raphael has invited a few of his colleagues to attend the wedding.

I am still not able to muster enough courage to face him.In fact from the day he has come to the home, I am just ignoring him, trying to avoid eye contact, refraining myself from indulging in any kind of conversation.Today, at the time of lunch he was sleeping so I and Mimi had lunch together. I woke up from a siesta when I felt thirsty. I checked my bottle just to find it empty. I walked towards the kitchen to refill it.As I was crossing the hall I saw that Raphael's room door was open. I peeped into it slightly and found him having his lunch on the bed. He was struggling with the food because of the bandage on his right shoulder. He was trying to eat with his left hand.After giving it a thought, I decided to go into his room. The ignoring game is not going to work for long.He

Elena's POV Shock is a very small word to express what I am feeling at present after looking at the completely changed demeanor of Raphael. I never thought even in my worst nightmare that he can trade his mother for money and love. This is not the person whom I loved and if this is his real face then I am not going to accept him in any way. I flinched at my place at the gunshot and snapped my head in the direction of the voice and found Xaphan standing there with a gun pointed towards the sky, firing in the air. He was looking drunk as his eyes were bloodshot red and his knees were wobbling. He was not able to stand still on his feet. He yelled like a beast and pointed his gun towards Lucifer. "How dare you?" He roared, clasping the gun with both hands and making the balance. "Put the gun down, Xaphan" Lucifer instructed. But he was too high to give heed to anything. He was looking thirsty fo
