"Lucifer" she repeated "Xaphan's father"
She took a deep breath to prepare himself.
"I met him when I was 16 years old"
She started with her story with a strong determination not to stop until she doesn't pour her heart out. I opened my ears and relaxed my mind to listen to her very carefully.
"The time when I used to be a free-spirited, ambitious, tenacious, passionate, and loving girl. My dreams were big and I wanted to achieve something in life. I was a quick learner and a philomath. I used to spend hours studying and researching various topics. My parents were very supportive, they let me chase my goals and follow my passion without putting any pressure on me for learning household chores or any other activity which a girl is supposed to do"
She smiled a little while remembering her old golden days.
"My world was very small, which consisted of my mother, father, a twelve-

Elena's POV"And then I gave birth to a baby boy" the side of her lips sarcastically twitched a little bit."He named him as Xaphan, the one who sets fire to the heaven. He gave him that name because he wanted him to be the destructor of thousands just like his father"She sighed."With his birth, I got a new hope. Although at that time I was only 17 years old, a kid by myself, yet the moment the nurse laid him on my chest, I was able to feel that motherly connection with him. My eyes filled with tears of happiness by seeing a small life made up of my blood and flesh lying in my arms. The time when I gave up all the hopes of living life, that little, innocent soul gave me the hope of living my life again, just for him"She was smiling all the time while telling me about the little Xaphan."But all those hopes of mine shattered within few days. I started loving Xaphan very much and he used to sleep with me

I spent day and night with my baby in a small apartment. I only stepped out to purchase food for my survival so that I can feed my son properly. He became my everything from that day, and the only motive of my life was to make him a good man so that he can fight against evil and no other girl go through the things that I have faced. I saved all the money for his future, I wanted to provide him the best education and wanted to live my dreams of studying through my son. He was very intelligent and a foodie from childhood.

Elena's POVI woke up at the chirping of the birds and the sun rays warming my back. I took a sharp breath, inhaling the fresh air, and stretched my body. I had a tight sleep after a very long time.My eyes fluttered open, slowly and the first thing I saw brought a wide smile to my face. I blinked twice to clear my vision and focus on him so that I can enjoy my morning view that is Raphael's face, fully!He was lying beside me, his right arm wrapped around my waist and my legs entangled with his. His eyes were closed, long eyelashes brushing his cheek and his breathing is even implying that he is in a deep sleep, lost in his peaceful world.As he was in his dreamland I got a chance of staring at him from close. His jaw has become sharper, and he has become smarter than before. A lot of girls were crazy for him in our college days and now with these killer looks, God knows, what he must be doing to the heart of ladies and that too u

Elena's POV"Shoot"*Boom*"Oh no! I missed it again!"I moved the revolver down as I missed the target again.It is been more than one month since I have shifted to Raphael's house. Things are going far better than I expected. My days pass well, every evening Raphael takes me to the depth of the forest and we spend our time in the company of trees and birds which gives my soul so much peace that I just want to live here forever.We are living at a place that is very far from the hustle-bustle of the crowd. The place is placid and restful, and my rifle beside me adds comfort. The combination of everything puts my soul at solace.The only thing I hate is that he made me wake up early in the morning. He does his exercise or I must say gymnastics which he has learned during his training period to join the police. He does this to keep himself fit and forces me to do the same. He doesn't stop until

Elena's POV"NO!"I yelled, struggled to free myself, and abruptly woke up from a bad dream, sitting on the bed immediately, I started panting heavily. The heart in my chest was drumming very loud and my forehead was dripping with sweat.I breathed heavily and thanked God when I realized that it was just a dream.Wiping the sweat from the back of my palm, I scanned the area. The darkness in the room tripled my fear. Stepping down, I moved towards the window and opened it to allow the moonlight and fresh air to fill the room.It is only one hour of me retiring to bed and I already had a nightmare. From the day I have come to know that Xaphan is now out of our reach my restlessness has increased. I am having more nightmares because my brain has started thinking negatively about the future.Brushing gloomy thoughts away, I tried to focus on the moon and feel the fresh air. I flinched at my place when I heard

And today Raphael was very harsh with me during the training session, which gave me muscle cramps. Every muscle of my body is aching so badly that I can't even move. As both of us were not in a condition to cook anything so we asked Raphael to bring something for dinner.As I was about to pick up the mobile to cut the time, I heard the doorbell. My eyes lit up at the thought of my two favorite things, Raphael and food. I instantly jumped off the couch in excitement and regretted the next moment as a painful moan left my mouth."Wait, I will open the door" Mimi offered."No! It's ok. I will manage"I said and stepped towards the door. I peeped from the hole to make sure it is Raphael. We don't open the door for anyone

Elena's POV"Hello kitten"He passed a smirk which made me sick in my stomach.It petrified me the way those dangerous men were standing in front of us with their authoritative and powerful aura. My breath hitched in my throat, my eyes became wide and my heart started drumming in my chest. My body became completely still.How did they get here?"I don't give hollow warnings. I told you once that you can not escape me as I will find you even if you are buried 100 meters deep inside the earth and will embrace you in my hell even if you hide in heaven" his smirk widened "so here I am" he opened his arm to show me his presence "For claiming what is rightfully mine"I ignored him and his words, just like the other two men present in this room also avoided him. I shifted my gaze towards Raphael because he was standing stiff as a board, gaze fixated on Lucifer with ferocity in his eyes while Lucifer was looking e

After four years Third Person's POV As the doorbell rang, Elena ran towards the door to welcome her husband and as usual, her husband engulfed her into a bear hug. "What happened? 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 little terrorist was smiling up at him, showing her tiny and white teeth, while he looked down at her in pure admiration and love. "Ohh!" Raphael now understood why his wife was so irritated.

I know, today I have pushed him to his edge. I was not ready to give in to him because Xaphan was still haunting me but now I have decided to move on. Raphael is so understanding that he gave me the required space and hasn't done anything except stealing kisses and hugs in the past month, which I found cute though.I know how hard it is been for him to control himself but not anymore.

Elena's POV "How long will you take?" My mother asked getting all irritated. "Just five minutes more!" So today is the biggest day of my life as I am going to get married to the man of my dreams! 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. The decoration is very modest because both of us have decided to spend money on a world tour instead of doing unnecessary expenditure on the wedding. "Bui, daddy is

Elena's POV"Mimi, I am not going on a date. It is just a get-together. Why are you forcing me to wear this red dress?"I huffed in irritation and sat on the bed. For the past twenty minutes, we are switching from one dress to another, not able to reach any concrete decision."Yes, I know but I want you to look the best at the party. Please" she made a puppy face "I request"How can I deny her request when she is asking me so lovingly?"Ok""Yay," she squeaked like a kid.This brought a wide smile to my face too."Don't make me wait for long" she made her way out of the room.I for my part started sliding into the red midi to get ready for the party.The day when Raphael took me to the dungeon and I whipped Xaphan, I cried a lot.

Elena's POVIt is been three days since the doctors have discharged Raphael. That day he kept waiting for me but I didn't go to meet him. 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
