"3," he counted it as loudly as she couldn’t bring herself out. The next minute, there was a loud bang. He broke the bathroom door with a single hit, and the door was opened. He scanned the whole bathroom but couldn’t find her."Julia," he called her, and he waited for 2 seconds, but she didn’t come out, which infuriated him. He stayed silent and didn’t make any sounds. He stood there for a few more seconds, and by making a sound, he came outside and closed the door behind him. He opened the door slowly, without waiting a second, and went inside. Hearing the door closing sound and thinking he might go out, she came out of the cupboard, which was under the sink.Seeing her, he smirked and said,"Hello kitten, let's end this game now, and as I said here, I stand with a victory."When his voice reached her ears, she started shivering. He gripped her hair and pulled her up."Ahh, please leave me." She joined her hands and pleaded with him with tears in her eyes."You played with fire, and
His eyes were shedding tears, which were unnoticed by him. Her whole body was bruised, and when he was holding a wet cloth, she was crying in pain. He understood how much pain she was in by hearing her hissing sounds, even in her unconscious state. He started feeling guilty, and after a few minutes, he lifted her up from the bed and took her into his arms. He hugged her tightly and leaned on the headboard, keeping her on his legs.He gently stroked her hair and hushed her. He closed his eyes, with her still in his embrace, and shifted to sleep. He is always a light sleeper, but with her in his arms, he had a tight sleep until the next morning.She came back to her senses, and when she opened her eyes, she observed that she was in his arms. When she tried to lift her hand, she was unable to do so because of the extreme apprehension, and when she was totally awake and in all senses, her bodyache was noticeable to her, which made her frown. She closed her eyes and tried to recall exactly
Seeing her struggle, his heart ached, which angered him. He felt disgusted, and if he could, he wanted to go back to the previous night and rewrite it. He got down from the bed without uttering a single word and scooped her up in his arms, which made her gasp in pain and shock."You, you monster, keep me down!" she yelled with an anger-filled voice. He didn't say anything and moved towards the washroom."What are you up to? Aren’t you satisfied with last night's torture? You want to torture me more?" She felt insecure around him, and the trust she had in him went upside down. Now she doesn’t even want to be under his shadow either. She hates him. He already understood her thoughts, and he knows it was his mistake. Her words didn't bother him anymore, so he took her to the restroom and made her sit on the stool there."I will be outside. Complete your work and let me know. I will come then," he said, turning around to walk out of the washroom."I don't need your help. I can do it mysel
Robert took her to the room and knocked on the door. Xavier was expecting him to be there at any moment, so he already unlocked the door and sat beside Julia, running his hands through her hair."Come in," he ordered. After getting his permission, Robert opened the door and took the doctor inside. Seeing Juliaa and the bruises on her face, Robert had a rough idea of what exactly happened. He glared at Xavier but didn’t utter a word."Doctor, check on her," Xavier ordered the doctor, who stood up from the bed.Please, you both go out and wait," the doctor said. Xavier was about to reject her idea of going out, but Robert already knew his intention, so he held his hand and walked out there."Xavier, who is she? Why is she here, and why is she covered with wounds and bruises?" Robert questioned him, looking straight into his face."...." Xavier doesn’t know what to say or how to say it. He can’t open his mouth and say the shameful act he did, and he can’t say that he behaved worse than a
"Robert, drop her back," Xavier ordered. Robert nodded his head and took the bag from her. He followed her politely and after reaching the main entrance Robert turned to the doctor and questioned,"Doctor, can you say the exact situation of that girl, please?"Hearing his question, she looked around to confirm that no one was there to hear her except Robert."You don’t need to worry, doctor. Here, no one has the habit of listening to others words," Robert assured her as he studied her thoughts. Listening to him, she nodded her head and said,"I want to ask, is he a human or a devil in human form? Even they have some sense of what they are doing and what's happening around them. But, he… H. tormented her in such a way that she slipped into mental depression. Her mind wasn’t stable anymore, and the wounds on her body might take 2-3 weeks to heal. If it’s anyone else rather than Mr. Hunter, I would have given them some medicine that can make him paralyzed for his entire life."Listening
"What happened, Xavier? What exactly happened that you lost control of yourself and behaved like a beast?" Robert questioned him directly, looking into his eyes. Xavier felt as if he had the capacity to study what was happening in his heart."Stop looking like that. I am not a girl," Xavier taunted."I don’t even know anything about girls. I am very well known to you and your habits," Robert answered. Xavier looked at him for a second and thought he wouldn't leave him and would let him stay peacefully until he said what happened. With a sigh, he moved from there, and Robert followed him.Xavier went to his study and questioned,"Now say, what's your problem? Why are you annoying me?""I want to know exactly what happened. You were fine when you left the company. So what exactly happened after you were back?" Robert questioned."Yes, I am fine while coming home and after coming home as well. I went to meet Alina," Xavier revealed.Hearing the name Alina," Robert got shocked and screame
"Yes, sir, she was talking like she knew you for a long time and asked me if you got married to Julia and why she was staying in this home along with you. I said, It’s Mr. Hunter’s personnel life, so if you have any questions regarding it, please approach him directly as you already know it, or give me your details and I will inform you.’" Hearing those words, Xavier knotted his eyebrows, and anger dissipated in him."Why didn’t you inform me that day that someone was looking for me and trying to gather my personnel details?" Xavier questioned him in anger."She Said not to inform you as she will call you by herself, and she also said that she wants to surprise you," the guard answered with a shiver."Oh, do you think he will accept all this from you guys? Why would he keep you all? If someone comes here directly saying they want to surprise him and you will allow them in here, which can cause a lot of problems," Robert pointed out his mistakes.No, sir, we won’t," the man replied."H
"What would you like to say?" Xavier interrogated Robert while raising the brow of one of his eyes. “What I am trying to say is what you are thinking. I am aware that she is your closest friend, but when she is attempting to invade your privacy, you need to set clear boundaries for her actions," Robert said in response. “Hmm,” Xavier hummed. “I think she created all that scene last night.” Robert pointed his index finger in the direction of Julia's room and said, "She is aware of all of your trigger points; however, she did that anyway, and the consequences of her doings is suffering inside that room." Robert is aware that Xavier is not an easily influenced person; however, he is also aware that when it comes to his closest friends, he will trust them without question, and that Alina is one of the people in his life who fits this description. Xavier's response of "Hmm" reveals that he was deeply contemplating something, and it tells the whole story. T
