CHAPTER 4
She tried her best to get out of his hold. There was sweat running down her forehead speaking of her anxiety. Kiara banged her fist on his hard chest giving him hard time in controlling her. "Ehhh, Kiara. Calm down, he will not hurt you. He is changed now."… He spoke assuring near her ear rubbing her back.
There was no way to calm her nerves down. "I want to go, let me go Raven."… She sternly yet difficultly said between her heavy breaths. The dark pair of black eyes that was staring her keenly with a chaste smile intriguingly read her behaviour. She's not changed at all. Three years but still her behaviour, her nervousness, her fear… Everything was just the same that it was in the old times.
"I don't trust him, nor do you. Now let me go."… She glared him, just being on the verge of crying. The advocate who was supposed to get their contract papers signed and get Raven through with this procedure, sat curiously in his seat looking at the businessman trying to handle his going to be wife, alas it seemed the toughest job for him as for now.
He was though in his mid forties, with wrinkled round shaped face, bald thin man with black eyes. His lips were thick and of pale colour. The black suit seemed as though a dress hanging on a skeleton however one could clearly see the professionality his face entertained.
Raven's one arm was locked around her waist and the free one he utilized to keep her still and protect himself from her back to back punches. "Kiara!"… A loud growl with high tone shout stunned her, she froze in her posture with her growing pupils fixating on his face that was red. The time supposedly was stopped, there ran a wave of silence— awkward silence that made both Girard and the advocate to pass glances awkwardly.
"Enough of your childishness!"… He shouted near her lips that turned her mute and eventually her eyes traveled down on her fingers those were shaking in fear. In fact the saline tear drops she has tried to hold back came sliding down her cheek turning her beautiful face sallow.
Raven sighed looking with 'What should I do with you!' look at his brother, Girard… The reason behind this outburst of his and her unusual condition. In turn Girard shrugged his shoulder biting his tongue. He had been the biggest fear of her life, her bully who would bother her every fucking second in the college.
And the worst part was, he was none other than Raven's elder brother aka their senior in Don Bosco University. She had wished for the college to end soonest where the others were asking it not to, just because she was being badly bullied by him.
And intriguingly, it would happen in Raven's absence. And when she would tell him about the happenings, he would just shove it away with a bored look for it was nothing new to listen. Half of his college life or say dating life went in listening to her complaints where she would badmouth about his elder brother, ask him to thrash him, take stupid promises to not let themselves stay in the house as same as of his after they get married.
And today, seemed the worse day she has once thought back in her college times about her and his future regarding their marriage life was coming true. "I didn't do anything. You know she's got a bad habit of accusing me." Girard unwrapped the chewing gum that he took off from his jeans pocket and stuffed it inside of his mouth by suspending it high in air and quickly taking it between his lips before it could fall down. " What else can I expect you to say. "… Raven said silently that still reached his brother who laughed at his words whilst chewing his gum.
Girard Carter, seven years elder to Raven, charming, handsome with heck of sex appeal is a playboy yet having infinite affairs with infinite women all at the same time. His eyes were the scariest green that he inherited from their father. Girard made bubble off his chewing gum enjoying that.
It made him feel as though they were in the college premises where she was hiding herself in her boyfriend's arms with moist eyes and puffy Pikachu kinda cheeks turning red like a kid while he was standing in front of her bully to inquire why did he do that to her? To which he would chip his same old statement, "I didn't do anything. You know she's got a bad habit of accusing me." And like everytime he would end up shouting on her for either his brother would clearly fool him or she would speak something out of anger that would make Girard come near her to show her the new side of the hell. And as always to handle the situation, Raven would scream on her.
However, the situation here was different. This time indeed he was innocent, and she was indirectly accusing him by crying hysterically like how she would cry after meeting up with her painful pranks and bullies. But here, just the difference was she was weeping because of the bitter memories and not him who was enjoying seeing her like that. His favourite prey.
Okay, Raven gave his brother a conquered look. He closed his eyes before picking her up in his arms and taking her to the left corridor that has few chairs kept there in a line. She was still crying with her closed eyes. He made her sit on the chair and sat in front of her on his knees intently looking at her face that appeared to be cute. "Kiara."… He rubbed away the tears biting her lower lip feeling not good. It's like three years after that breakup he met her the last day, she was now left as his last hope. He couldn't just let her cry when he knows she was important. "He's changed. We are no more in the college, he won't hurt you."… He tried to make her understand.
"He will and I know like the early times, you won't say anything to him. No matter what he does to me."… She suddenly spoke making him feel relieved and bad at the same time. Okay, he so knew it. She was only scared of his brother who scares her like a creepy ghost with no legs floating in the air and sharp pointed teeth and handless creature that you see in a movie.
Otherwise, she is as brave as a knight in front of him. "You are diplomatic Raven. You always were, I think I should reconsider my decision of marr—"… Her eyes shot open in shock, heart fluttering with amazing feeling, fingers curling around the fabric of his collar while breasts pressing against his hard torso as he smacked his lips on her supple ones before she could complete that statement.
Tbc..
CHAPTER 5"Don't look at me like that Diaz… Ahh correction… I mean Carter!"… Girard aforementioned whilst settling in the front seat beside the driver. He faked a glare towards Kiara by sitting slightly crossed such that his back was resting against the door. He trailed his tongue round the circumference of his teeth staring Kiara continuously.The situation was funny yet very interesting! There was fear, a slight attitude of being in power by becoming Mrs. Carter (his wife) as well as her confident was modified nevertheless, still there was panic and insecurity in her eyes. "Don't look at him."… Raven made her hide her face in his neck pulling her close. His one hand was around her shoulders pulling her in his safe protection while the other one covering her eyes such that she could avoid seeing his face. Yet, she peeped through the gap between his fingers at his brother's face that was craned
CHAPTER 6Kiara swigged her saliva gazing at the guy in her front, her expressions were as if she was seeing the world’s worst guy, “What are you doing here in this dark night standing alone on the gate?”… He flirtatiously asked trying to touch her bare shoulder. Left eye as well as ear pierced with metal ring, he ruffled his hairs those seemed to be wet. He was Payton, college’s bad boy!Kiara rolled her eyes moving away from him with clenched jaw, her eyes were red already, having waited till so long she did not know what to do. “Go to hell Payton. Fuck you!”… She showed him her middle finger with a cunning smile making the looks on his face to change from smirking to heck serious.This girl was something to play with, something to taste slowly with ecstasy. Her tongue was sharper than a butcher’s knife. She could kill anyone with her killer be
CHAPTER 7Hurt again!Kiara’s point of view…He opened the door for me. His brother Girard swiftly exited the car and entered in the house leaving us alone. I was happy and felt light hearted to see him not near us any more. His presence was making it difficult for me to breathe. He did not seem the old Girard any more yet his facial expressions were the same. It refreshed my old memories. That was haunting!I lightly breathed a sigh feeling my body relaxing in comfort at his departure. I was so much lost in myself that I totally forgot Raven has been standing there with an open door asking for me to get out, but his voice could not reach me, I was too into my thoughts. When I nervously gaped his face that was slightly getting into the mode of annoyance, he just looked away.This was his way to ignore his frustration toward me.As
CHAPTER 8I was in the room alone. Afternoon’s blazing sun was overhead, Raven has got a call and left for some important meeting immediately. I attempted to ask him what was the matter notwithstanding he only said, “I will tell you everything once I am back, trust me. There are so many things I want to discuss with you.” And left not before giving me a feathery kisson my neck.And guess what, I was alone in the entire bungalow with Girard. I begged him to not go, I was sure his brother would do something to me once Raven will leave. And that was why I locked the door, to be on the safer side I placed a table across the same to take every possible measure to keep him away from me.As for now, I was on the bed in my gown with folded legs, I have had curled my hairs into a bun and washed my face. Wearing make up has always been a concern for me. It bothers me, what if acne and rashes appears on my face if I keep
CHAPTER 9Kiara point of view….My throat went dry, the way his eyes narrowed and glared me, I was almost on the verge of passing out. He is handsome, six pack abs, challenging personality but the thing that makes everyone hate him is his nature. That bully nature. Even today when the old friends or old classmates accidentally stumble by and see him, they sweat only by getting a glimpse of his face.The time really had flown by but his old self still holds that dread that can kill anyone!“I…. I” I fumbled.He slightly bobbed his head allowing me to go further unfortunately, I did not know where to start from. His eyes were enough for me to start sweating!Honestly I was never courageous enough to open my mouth in front of him. He threatened me like the monster of any horror movie with disgusting teeth, long nails and lips
CHAPTER 10A drizzling night!The clouds were slightly drizzling, there was fog covering the area while the dew condensed on the transparent glass of Kiara’s window was slipping down. The atmosphere was good. Perfect one to sit silently near the balcony with a hot cup of coffee and talk.The lights were switched off, only the ceilings lights were turned on that made all the object, show pieces to gleam in its light. Raven was in the wash room changing his clothes. While Kiara stood across the balcony enjoying the beautiful scenery there, many a thoughts struck her mind!The month of October with winters approaching was best. The heater was on, how everything unlike a new couple’s bed, their bed was not decorated with flowers! There were no fragrance candles too. Even he did not make her feel as though they would be having their first night tonight!She let out a sigh leaning on
CHAPTER 11Confession.Raven’s point of view…Her skin was as soft as silk. The more close I held her the more I craved her skin. She has not changed even a bit. She had maintained herself like the old Kiara from college. Everybody hated me, all the guys. They wanted to own her as theirs but I got to mark her with my name.I met her on the college gate for the first time. It was her first day, she was a transfer and the topper of her state who was given the opportunity to study in our esteemed institute. Her first gaze was magical. It was enough to bring someone like me on his knees.She spelled me such that I ended up proposing her.I ravished her skin as much as I can. She never permitted me to go beyond neck kisses that was frustrating, but having her so close— was like a dream come true. Where in the college all the ot
CHAPTER 12Ward-38.The drizzling night was now replaced by foggy night. The room has become seemingly comfortable for the night unless, Kiara turned to her right side. She roamed her palm to feel him beside her but to her surprise the side was empty.She lazily unclasped her lashes rubbing them sluggishly. “Raven!” she yawningly called got his name while in the manner moving around her eyes in the entire room. The white shining flooring has the reflection of all the objects kept in the room. His big fledged room with a massive foyer, a comfy set of peach colored sofas, and the teak wood furniture with white paint complimented the room well.There was floor to ceiling long balcony curtained with shady curtains while the ceilings dim lights made everything clear that there was no one else other than her in the room. Yet to hit her satisfaction level and make an increment in her
(Last chapter)63. Baby boy's birthday"Mummy, I want tho (to) go to the market" Billy uttered with his slipping tongue.He was growing up quickly and his talks were becoming way more and more cute and naughty. He was becoming more stubborn too. Kiara smile watching baby boy stand in his half pants in front of her as if he was an obedient son of her mamma. "Sure, I will take you to the market" she pulled his chubby cheeks whilst kissing them lightly too.Five months passed by in a jiffy, and they were the most amazing five months of their lives while they stayed together in Raven's parents' house. Today was Billy's third birthday too, so the celebration was doubled.Girard and his grandparents were occupied with the task of decorating the house. They decided to go with the theme of Mowgli an
62. New beginningA week later,"Thanks" Shania smiled sitting on an armchair as Payton forwarded her a cup of coffee.She was staring at the starry sky from the ceiling to floor huge window. It was like a clip playing on a screen. The blue sky mixed with black theme looked awesomely beautiful. "How long are you going to stay here?" he asked taking a seat next to her.Shania stubbornly got discharged that day from the hospital and tried to attempt suicide again however, Payton who had followed her saved her. He slapped her on the cheek and taught her how important and worthy her life was.But as broken as she was, she still did not want to go to the hospital and face her ex-husband. She was crazy at her father too who had refused to file a case against Raven and Kiara for trick
61. Unveiling secrets and a broken WarriorWith the arrival of fresh morning new relationships came to life. The fresh breeze of the new beginning brushed Kiara's pale tired face. She stirred stretching her arms on her side. She trailed her palm on the side of the bed under her semi-conscious state. "Raven!" she sat on the bed with jolt as the side of the bed was empty.She looked at the wash room but no voice came from inside. Billy was sleeping in his cradle while the windows was perfectly curtained so that no sun light can creep inside the room and disturb her sleep.They were open in the last night. Raven may have closed them, but the question was, where was he?Kiara's heard started throbbing loudly. Hasn't he decided to abandon her!Many such emotions filled her h
60. Unexpected crashWhile the living beings were sleeping soundly in their beds Payton sat in the empty lounge of Seattle Airport alone. He was waiting for his private jet to occur that was about to come. On the other hand, his mind yearned to message Raven and Kiara and wish them a good luck before leaving.He was going back to Serbia, this time forever. Although her love was incomplete, yet he was happily going back with some of the good memories stoked up in his brain. He was happy for uniting the couple he grew up seeing since the college began. The two of them were college darlings and meant to be together.But the life played according to its game and after some separation and drama it finally brought the two of them together. Together a happy family they seemed awesome. He can't admire their love for a limit, it was limitless.&nbs
59. Their love won!It came as a shock to Kiara. She stiffened her body under his pressure while emotions built within her. She was speechless running dry with words and empty with courage. Her fingers around his shoulder s loosened and came across her chest. She suddenly felt like a fish drawn out of the water and thrown of muddy ground to suffer.She was still in daze that her eyes several times blinked. Had she imagined him saying that! She asked herself while her lung blew and such long breaths. Raven though was not in any mood of pretending it was her imagination. The way he got back on his legs and faced the open windows of their room, his tongue spoke again, "I just proved your swears wrong, Kiara. You said you were pure, didn't you? If you were pure why would you yearn to my sexual advances like that" he raised his eye brow giving her thought looks.Kiara wh
58. He's turned you into a sex addictThird person's point of view...She was waiting for him without keeping her attention occupied by any other stuff. It was 12.15 am in the night, billy was sleeping soundly in his baby cradle located beside the bed on a distance. The room was illuminating with dim lights while Kiara walked to and fro around the balcony waiting for his car to catch her glimpse.They were supposed to talk. She was prepared doing what she has planned. Alas, there was no sign of him anywhere. Ste was ready to take the bull by the horns but her badass husband was seeing to it that she suffered.Not only had he blocked her phone number but also warned anyone to give her his location. Kiara tried talking to Girard and his answer was as expectedly— useless.Bu
57. When I talk to you— look at meKiara's point of view...The life was giving me a second chance. It was not yet clear but I have seen it... It was my chance— chance to ask for my husband's forgiveness.He was mad at me for staying at another man's house. But how to make him believe we stayed in two different rooms in the same house. Payton is not that bad which he was in the college. He is a changed man now.But for raven, he was still the old guy who was just trying to woo his girlfriend turned into wife.Any ways, I have seen it in his eyes he was not angry... He was just jealous. And if what I have deciphered true, than tonight will the night of our togetherness. I will make him mine again.I have changed to take reve
56. How can I not believe that nothing happened!He halted on the door looking at the scene before him. There was nothing he could say as his son was actually crying because her uncle Girard has held him within his arms not letting him go to his mamma. She was on the bed looking extremely sick with red eyes and yellowish pale skin. There was a bottle of glucose hanging on the bedside while the pipe kept attached to the back of her wrist. Who would tell his stubborn son what was up with her.He cried kicked and bit Girard on the shoulder agitated by his action of preventing him from his mamma.But when little Billy caught the sigh of his startled father at the door step, "Pappa... Pappa" he faked a cry pushing Girard away from himself and got down of the bed carefully.Just as his little body pushed itself down the bed
55. You don't see my painAfter that leave Raven never visited his parents' house to see Billy. That Night Kiara cried to herself hugging her son to her chest as she did manage to get him back to herself but his father, she could not get him at all.He was damn angry on her.It was justified though.Kiara can comprehend as to what was holding him back. Firstly, she left them in the hardships and when her guilt was eating her for the blunder she made, she came back.Although the entire Carter family forgave her there was her husband who was still maintaining distance from her. "Morning uh, m-mom!" Her eyes were red and puffy, Mrs. Carter forced a smile recognizing them.She must have cried the whole night!
