" Sometimes the rose has to burn to let the flames cry a song of agony and stealth anguish, a burn so fiery to melt down the sinner into ashes. His sin, the tainted love, all nothing but cinders and whispers of the wind who had witnessed him unleash the demon hidden beneath the layers and layers of a beautiful persona, too magnetic to bewitch every soul but hers "

'Wait ma sa, can you handover your phone to Nandini. She isn't picking up my calls...',she was perturbed by his question. A cold bead trailed down the arch of her neck. What will she say now? A new wave of terror started creeping inside her heart paralyzing her every muscle...'She...she's gone to her friend Riddhi's house', she bit her tongue, barely able to lie.

My heart is feeling restless these days..!', the stressed croaky voice of Vijay reached his wife's ears who was busy making tea on a small gas stove. 'Uff..!! Why're you stressing so much on calling her home since last night? She has her exams till weekend! She can't come...and have you anticipated her reaction when she'll see us in this crumbling state?'Sunita's anxiousness led to a fright seeing her husband's body turning pale.

Vast strech of darkness filled the void with sly pearls shimmering arount the pale yellow crescent moon of the midnight sky gleaming in solitude, the crickets were silenced by the blowing breeze as it swishes through the branches, leaves rustling with slight tremor in peaceful murk.The barking of stray dogs broke the somnolence of Akhil who barely fell asleep after continuous twisting and turning on bed. His distressed sleep got disrupted by thier constant growling and woofing jarring his nerves, frustrated by the disruption he rose from his supine posture. His face was drenched in sweat due to the lack of aeration.in the packed claustrophobic volume.'You didn't sleep?', his stressed voice drew the attention of the girl reclined against the wall on the floor, eyes wide open yet hollow staring out of the window aimlessly without stirring from the crouched posture. She snapped out of the abyss of desolation, fixating her sorrowful brown orbs at his tensed face. 'I couldn't sleep', her

'Akhil, why only you'll be entitled as brother in law? Give me a chance too to serve your sister! My mother was right, torturing you would be a naive step. Since you're never gonna open your mouth, I'll never be able to find where my princess is hidden! But it'll lot be easier and profitable to open your sister's juicy legs to suck her sweet nectar and torture her everyday. How you'll die each day thinking about the pains your sister will go through! How she'll beg me to leave assaulting her body but would I? Why would I pardon her when you stole away my precious gem?', he smirked blowing the cigarette on Akhil's battered face who had no fragment of strength left to even flutter his eyelids open.They were closed, he being chained against chair in a dingy room with blood stains all over his clothes showing the barbarity of the beasts that didn't spare breaking his skull and ribs with a baseball bat after queen exited from the balcony. He looked moribund as if he's gonna die any second
Cruelty Chapter 7|A wicked lie
Pellucid tears clouded my vision, I stood baffled at his Impassive behaviour. He was staring at me as I could feel his intense heated gaze boring holes in my side skull. 'Was my hold too strong? It wasn't intentional tho!', he whispered slightly inclining towards my shoulder, his warm breath tingled my neck as he spoke since he was positioned parallel to me.Am I thinking too much? Really? Is this how he normally hold hands? But he didn't said sorry for hurting me whether intentional or not. I apprehensively shook my head,'N..no'. Maybe he didn't wanted to hurt me..!'You're looking beautiful wifey!', I heard his low gruff voice sort of a hoarse whisper, his warm breath fanning my cheek as blood rushed to my face flushing it. I lowered my gaze, a tint of strawberry tainting my cheeks. We did the rituals together. During our pheras, I for the first time noticed how tall he is! Probably 6"3' to my 5"7', my height's not less but a lot smaller as compared to his height.But still I couldn

Morning fell in all it's glory, bronze and violet pastels mixed with the happy orange poured through the pellucid looking clouds wandering fecklessly in the new born sky. Golden threads of morning light peeked through the blinds filling the ambient space with warmth and positivity. It caressed the tear stained face of a girl crouched in a corner of a small chamber, stress lines prominent on her forehead contrast to her once baby like tranquil moon face reflecting a fresh bloom rose in the mist of the woodland.How calm and serene her mind was and now havoc has wrecked her life. Yesterday, she cleaned the entire fourteen rooms of the palace, cooked dinner and washed the pile of dishes in the sink. When no shred of energy was left in her body, she was fed a meal only half stomach being excused as this is the amount of food you must eat in evening. She can't protest since she was threatened to put the life of her brother at stake if she didn't comply. Her back ached with the intense str

I was despondently heading towards the lounge area when I sensed someone's shadow, towering over my head, just behind me. I turned around and I felt as if my eyes are deceiving me. I finally beheld her face before departing. She was breathing heavily, gasping and all drenched in sweat, her hair all messy and sticking to her face as if she reached here, running a marathon. Being too overwhelmed and scared, I forgot to ask her permission and crashed her into me, tightly clutching her dainty body against my chest.And she too, complied by not pushing me away, this time. After a short while, she shifted a little, indicating to break the hug and I did, freeing her from my smothering hold. That's when I noticed the saree she was wearing, the one I wanted her to wear at the event but she had refused to accept anything from me. Typical she and her queen attitude, well I respect that attitude that's why I am alive.Taking one deep shaky breath, she started shouting or rather roaring at me, imp
Cruelty Chapter 46|Epilogue
I looked myself in the mirror. The red georgette saree perfectly hugged my curves. With fine intricate designs imprinted on the smooth fabric, the stud earrings overall made my appearance look extremely sophisticated, exquisite and maybe enticing? The event was not the only thing, I am getting ready for. There's something more that matters to me a lot, at least before I take any firm decision in my life and choose whether I live with my past or move on, completely. I haven't read the contents inside of the envelope but since our relationship hasn't completely dissolved in the way it should, I have decided to meet him in person and sort everything out. The one thing that always was always a negative aspect in our lives was the lack of proper and in depth conversation. It was always either an unfriendly and cold encounter or no words exchanged for days. This honestly requires a lot of courage for me to face him after not seeing him for so long, maybe an eternity, well that's an exagger

A week later Somber night, a masculine figure rolled out of his sleek SUV, parked in front of an abandoned and desolate apartment complex. Black aviator glasses complementing his trimmed beard and overall domineering appearance in brown tuxedo over velvety Armani shirt, hiding a long scar running through his chest after spending three consecutive years behind lock up with inmates, bully and crazy maniacs.His ravening footfalls echoed in the silent corridor as a bunch of armed men advanced through the cramped hallway, following the formidable shadow in order to safeguard him from any potential attacks and threats, the desolate place, a dwelling to countless hazardous pests and toxic contaminants, filled with malodolorous smell lingering in the smothering environment, damp, cold and humid. With one robust push, the metallic door slammed open, revealing a moribund body chained to the walls, stained with ugly patterns of blood splashes all over the surface. 'Is he breathing, still?', t

The following morningIt was still dark and cloudy outside when Saanvi abruptly woke up from her slumber. Her eyes were swollen and face puffy after the rough evening. So much has happened yesterday that she couldn't get over it. Firstly, she encountered a creepy man at her shop that immediately left after disclosing her identity in a threatening fashion, leaving the bouquet on the counter. Secondly, she was sent a notice regarding the study loan. Thirdly, she received a call from the hospital regarding her mother's critical condition. And lastly, she has to pay rent the following week for which she has no money.She slid off her blanket and made her way towards the balcony to witness rosy hue of the hidden sun. While the darkness was still subduing the light with all it's effort but in the end, light will penetrate no matter what, spearing through the dreariness. Wish it could happen in her case too.The rhythm and harmony of the morning air, the fluttering leaves and strutting pigeo

He was sentenced to three years in imprisonment being found guilty of abuse and misleading and hiding crucial evidences regarding an ongoing case of a minor girl being harrassed by the man, now being pronounced 'not guilty' and framed by the court. Whilst stepping down the staircase, he saw her standing in the rain with a black umbrella on the side of the lane, the scene pretty much hazy and unclear.He stood watching her stoic face, completely numb and expressionless. Exactly, how he saw her inside the courtroom while the judgement was passed against him. He didn't deny any accusation, the conscience was culpable for crumbling her soul. 'Aren't you going to say anything?', he softly asked from a distance. She shook her head, closing the space between the victim and his cuffed perpetrator.'Instead of saying anything, I want to present you something. This is a divorce letter, an unpleasant and bitter conclusion of our failed marriage. This will forever remind you of how sometimes, fe

The turbulent sky of Svamgarh grew leaden and darkening, overcast with ash grey clouds, loured, roaring and thunderous. An ephemeral serein drizzled down on the heated terrace and soon after, the heavy down pour began.The soft mizzle emanated an earthy smell of soaked soil, the dewy petrichor that gradually permeated in the soothing and hushed ambience of the twilight, a sublime and unparalleled blend of lilac and orange, tranquilizing the troubled and anxious state of a woman, leaning against the steel bars with her drenched saree sticking to her wet curves, complementing the dewy texture of her supple and lithe skin underneath the gauzy silk.The puddles, waterlogged, plinked tenderly each time the sparkling beads of rain dropped intermittent kisses on the unmoving waters, spawning ripples. The street was nearly empty with silent commotion, only vigorous pitter pattern reverberated on the concrete lane. She was lost in the cold rain, faint swishing of winds murmuring back tales of

Saanvi's POV:I inhaled a sharp breath, regaining my lost composure. His sharp gaze paused at my nervous face, zooming into my expressions very keenly. Tightening my fists, I peered into his piercing eyes, deeply engaged in scanning my finest activities as if awaiting to spot something off about our unprecedented collision.'You had been mumbling something in sleep, something like where must it be? Were you looking for something in here?', my heart beat escalated would be an understatement. I literally panicked internally though my poker face could've manage to conceal the internal turmoil of my mind.'Did I really blabber in my sleep?
