MALAKAI

Trigger warning: This chapter contains depictions of violence, readers discretion is advised.

*

It is difficult to escape the darkness, but it only takes a second to be drawn back into it, and you are buried deeper than you can imagine.

I hiss at Pierce in betrayal; how many times will I realize that there is nothing scarier than the person who put me in this situation?

Pierce knows of my nightmares. Still, he drags me into it, blocking every escape route as he stands behind me, his heavy hands clenching on my shoulders like red hot steel.

His hot breath presses against my ears as he whispers softly to me; his velvety voice teases me like a tempter's kiss.

"Kai, I told you that I used to be afraid like you, but it was not until I caught my tormentors and killed them one by one that the bad dreams stopped because I knew they could not hurt me any longer..."

My eyes remain wild from the power of my fears, and his arms, which slit around me like a serpent,

    CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT MALAKAI * * I stare blankly at the mixture of blood and water trickling down the drainage. Pierce dries our bodies with a towel after the shower, I walk behind him mutely as he leads us back to the bedroom and gets us ready for bed. We still don't speak to each other, the drive back to the house had also been in silence, but I noticed him casting me a frequent concerned look. For someone who just witnessed a gruesome murder, I'm doing far better than I could have ever imagined, and that's the problem. I shouldn't be okay, but there is no fear nor desire to fight within me. I feel oddly peaceful and light, as though I've won something huge after trying for a long time. Are the monsters truly gone? Then, what do I do about the one beside me? ...Or the ones within me? Maybe I don't have to do anything, it doesn't matter what he is, I'm not going to leave anyway. '...Tell me everything they did to you and let me love you either way ' I lift

    CHAPTER FIFTY-NINEMALAKAI **"I love you too, Pierce" Uttering these words feels to me like I'm sealing my fate. The world may condemn me for my actions, but I need Pierce as much as he needs me, but now I can't fucking breathe.His thick arms are suffocating me, his face is nearly inches from mine, and his dark, excited gaze is consuming me."Pierce, I can't breathe..""No, I can't breath, baby, say it to me again, please!" He breathes harshly; I meet his eyes, which are nearly covered by his unruly hair, forming a veil; the burning intensity and desperation in it make my heart start to pound wildly. "I love you, Pierce,"And he cracks before my very eyes, his features are softer than they've ever been, the happiness radiating from him is like a contagious disease, enveloping me, and the smile he gives me makes my stomach clench tightly and the only thing I can think is that, he's so beautiful.I love that he's happy because of me. I feel as though I've just accomplished my purpo

    CHAPTER SIXTYMALAKAI**I awake to this full sensation in my stomach; I stare at Pierce dazedly; he's still inside of me, and it feels as though we are one person.No, something feels weird. I can feel something trickling down my thigh, his semen?My eyes jerk further awake at the explosive sensation in my rectum, and the realization of what he's just done."You crazy bastard! Take it out of me!" My shout should be loud enough to even wake the dead. I push away from him instantly. "I just don't feel like pulling out of you, baby...""You're disgusting!"I wobble my way to the bathroom, pressing a hand over my abdomen; I felt as though it would burst earlier. "You will clean everywhere after, and be sure to change the bed!" I yell furiously, before slamming the door close.I turn on the shower, only to hear the door open, and Pierce walks inside."You are bathing without me, Are you angry with me or something?" How dare he look so upset?!He stretches lazily and starts to approac

    CHAPTER SIXTY ONE PIERCE * * Kai said he loves me, he needs me. I'm fucking wanted by him. Is this what happiness feels like? A heavy cloak in your lungs that makes you unable to breathe, I can literally feel it surging through my veins like the sweetest drug. So what is this anxiousness then? It constantly prickles my heart like a steel knife, getting intense with each passing day. I feel so fulfilled and blessed by Kai, so why do I feel like I'm walking on eggshells ever since he confessed to me? Perhaps it's because this happiness feels too surreal; isn't it ironic that everything is so perfect that it feels like an illusion? Fear spikes through my heart like hot needles now and then, and I find myself losing control despite having everything I've ever wanted... prayed for even. It is driving me insane, whenever I think that this perfect dream may just shatter into a thousand pieces that will stab through my fucking heart at any given moment. The voices in

    CHAPTER SIXTY-TWOMALAKAI**"You finally decided to remember your brother? Do you know how worried I was? I thought you were dead or something; where the hell have you been?" I was surprised to find my cell phone lying carelessly in one of the drawers. It appears that Pierce has been with it this whole time. Why didn't he mention it to me? I even thought that I had lost it at that motel and was contemplating getting a new one.There had been no calls nor messages from Ezra which I thought was a bit weird because he is the only person I expect to check up on me. He usually bombards me with messages and fills me in on everything happening at home whether I want to hear it or not.I had just been thinking if he'd maybe gotten himself in some kind of trouble, which is why I decided to dial his number, and much to my relief, he answered, but he sure has a lot of nerves to act worried when he had never bothered to call me in the first place? "How dare you __""I'm sorry for giving Mom

    CHAPTER SIXTY-THREEMALAKAI**Time floats like a soft wind; It's the beginning of winter, and snowflakes fall from the sky. Today, the weather is cool and breathtaking; the air is crisp, and the sky is somewhat cloudy.I feel proud that I'm finally able to achieve something I love without anything holding me back, in fact, I'm being supported to do it. I carefully examine my subject through the lens of the camera, the sunset casting a golden hue on him, causing my spine to tingle with anticipation.I'm always passionate about taking pictures, but capturing him always makes me feel both nervous and excited, and right now in this casual attire with his black hair falling across his face, he looks as sinful as a fallen angel, he is a mix of mysteriousness and always has this air of danger surrounding him, but it seems I'm the only person capable of sensing his deadly energy because everyone else only watches with admiration when he walks. I inhale deeply, steadying myself as I take t

    CHAPTER SIXTY-FOURMALAKAI **It isn't often that you can see your life flashing before your own eyes, and I can only wonder yet again, why does trouble always find me any time we go out?Horror spikes through my body like sharp shards of ice as Pierce walks closer. I try to turn away from Richard only for this bastard to block my path, he follows the direction of my gaze and a malicious smile across his face."Seems you're here with someone, is he your boyfriend? No wonder you're so tensed, are you scared he's going to find out about us!" He laughs."We never had any relationship, and you better keep your mouth shut, if you know what's good for you!" I give him a warning glare and brush past him to meet Pierce halfway. "You good?" He says, looking behind my head, and panic knives through me again, so I try to bring his attention to me. "Are you done? Let's leave here," I grasp his arm hurriedly, praying he doesn't hear the fear in my voice; we barely take a few steps towards the

    CHAPTER SIXTY-FIVEMALAKAI **I find myself waiting for Pierce outside the operating room of the private hospital. His father had suffered a major heart attack and is still in critical condition, so only immediate family is allowed to see him. I have never met his father before and feel slightly relieved about not having to see him right now.Even though Pierce is still mad at me, I'm still happy that he wants me to be here with him."I didn't think you would get back with him after everything__"I turn around to see Pierce's stepmother gazing at me; her expression is unfathomable, and I grow nervous under her stare. Earlier, when we arrived, it had been so obvious that Pierce and her didn't meet eye to eye; they didn't even bother to hide their dislike for each other. She quirks a brow at the bottle of water and Pierce's jacket in my hands and adds. "You play the part of a good lover quite well, I take it that you don't hold any resentment for the man who gave you away to his son

    EPILOGUE PIERCE** TWO YEARS LATER I broke him, my little bird. My prettiest boy, and my husband. Yes, we have been legally bound for almost two years now, and even though some time has passed, Kai is still broken by that incident. He is like a beautiful reflective glass that has been splintered into a million pieces, and I'm not going to try to fix him, because I know that each piece of him loves me dearly. Glass is beautiful when it is whole, but have you ever noticed the way it shines brighter when it is broken? That is exactly how Kai is to me, and I love to think that if that situation two years ago is played all over again, he's going to choose me again. And he knows it too which is why he's never going to forgive me for manipulating him into doing what he did. Even right now, as I watch him, everyone else around him feels inferior. He's like that bright star in the sky that no one else can reach, but somehow, he is mine, which makes me the luckiest bastard on the planet

    CHAPTER EIGHTY ONEMALAKAI **Liam freezes, the knife still suspended in the air, as I make cold eye contact with him."Get away from him, don't make me do it__" My voice is oddly firm even though desperation is boiling and pumping through my veins.The gun feels heavy in my hands, "Get away from him, I won't repeat myself!" My hands start to tremble. I don't want to do this. I meet Pierce's gaze, the blood seeping from his hand catches my attention and this is probably the first time I've seen him hurt. And it does something to me, like every thread of reasoning in my brain snaps and all I'm left with is protective and murderous instinct. How dare Liam hurt what is mine?! The voices in my head are screaming to pull the trigger. I want to kill him!"You're not going to hurt me, you can't even hold a gun!"Liam sneers.Pierce starts to shove him off, and Liam raises the knife high; the next events happen in a blur, and the shot explodes, not just once, but twice.Time and everythi

    CHAPTER EIGHTY MALAKAI **"Pierce?""Hmm?"'Just tell him, don't think about anything else, tell him everything!'It's only sensible to let him know, but my mouth feels frozen when I open it, and I can not find the words to tell him that we could possibly be in danger. That I've been giving money to Liam."What's wrong?" Here is an opening again to confess everything."If something is bothering you, you can always tell me, you know that, right?" Pierce says softly, gazing at me in the most adoring way that makes my heart clench. I have been lying to him a lot lately, and I don't like it one bit because keeping this secret means distancing myself from him and he keeps providing me with these opportunities, so why do I keep hesitating? The reason is simply that I still want to give Liam a chance; I feel that he is just lost. I've been at that point once. If I tell Pierce, there's no way Liam is going to be left alive. So, what am I going to do about the loanshark? I don't want to

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINEMALAKAI**Wandering hands and probing lips wake me up, the covers are pulled back and firm fingers are grasping my knees apart"Pierce," I sigh when I feel his warm breath on my flesh just before he gives my nipple a long lick, warming me up to the tingles of pleasure. Lying to Pierce about where I was last night had been easier than I expected.I created a false story about meeting some random street beggar, and he had been convinced he didn't suspect anything.Normal Pierce would have interrogated me deeper, why is why I feel weird, and I'm starting to think that maybe he__No, it can't be that. If he knew that I secretly met Liam, he would have raised hell. Not treating me gently like this. "Pierce..." I moan when I feel the thick head of his cock stretching me wide; my body is trembling for his touch."Hmmm," His low hum vibrates and encloses my nipple, sending a wave of electric shock through my spine. I bury my fingers into his back when he starts to thr

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHTMALAKAI**As I watch, a delicate hummingbird flies into view, its feathers glowing like diamonds. I snap photo after photo, trying to freeze the moment. My camera lens views the curious butterfly as it lands on a nearby flower, its wings unfolding like tiny works of art.I lean in closer, capturing the intricate details of its delicate body. The theme of the assignment is animal versus nature, I just hope that the professor is going to like my work. I shift my camera to a new landscape and zoom only for all of my thoughts to freeze.It's him again.I look up from his image on my camera, and sure enough, he is still standing there, close enough for me to acknowledge his presence but too far for me to reach him. What does he want from me? He keeps following us everywhere. "What is it?"I jump at the sound of Pierce's voice, I try to smile but it falters from my sudden nervousness. "Can we return to the hotel? I'm a bit tired, and I need a drink,"We are in th

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN MALAKAI **SEVEN MONTHS LATER "I'm doomed, I already booked us dinner, but I still don't have his birthday gift!""Did you get him a ring or something like I told you?""Of course not!"I'm on face time with Ezra, and he snorts at my dumbfounded expression. His idea is horrible, but I can only blame myself for asking him for gift ideas in the first place; at times like this, I sort of wish that I had other friends to consult. Why is gifting Pierce something always so difficult? Or maybe I deserve the title of being the worst boyfriend because I still haven't figured out what Pierce is enthusiastic about. At this point, I may have to wrap my ass or my dick in a ribbon and give it to him. Wait__ can I do that? It's only reasonable because that's the one thing Pierce ever seems to always want."You even got two different cars on your birthday! If I were you, I'd marry him right away. Life's rough out here, you know"Actually, it's Pierce's dad who also gifted

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIXMALAKAI**I fall asleep at some point, and it's probably due to the IV fluids, but it isn't a deep sleep because my eyes flutter open when I hear a sound at the door."Is it already time to go?" I mutter groggily to Pierce, who is sitting on the bedside chair close to me. I feel better, but my body is still weak, my gaze shifts to the door to see the nurse who had attended to me earlier enter, but she isn't alone.The familiar figure that walks in behind her makes my heart race with surprise.Uriel?She sees me, and her eyes instantly widen with a thunderstruck look that reflects mine."Malakai, It's really you!" She rushes towards me; my weak condition seems to sober her up, or I fear that she will just jump on me. "Where have you been?!"I stare at the attending nurse, who is giving us a bewildered look. Pierce had coldly told her off when she tried to take our picture earlier. I guess she still secretly did it, but who could have imagined the coincidence?Uri

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVEMALAKAI **I stare at the deep scars around my flesh in dismay. Most of the skin is reddish and purplish, almost like a tattoo all over my cock; not only that, the burning sensations scream to me that I have been overused. Just staring at my dick brings pitiful tears to my eyes,"What's wrong?"I hear Pierce's deep voice from behind me, and I clench my teeth; how dare he even ask? The nerve!"My... my... It's ugly because of you!"I can barely look at the dark hickeys covering every inch of it without wincing. At times like this, I wonder if Pierce loves me or hates me. "Son't see what you're talking about. It looks fine to me," He says, and he tries to touch it, but I swat off his hand.Of course, he's going to say that!"You're just jealous that my dick looks prettier and you had to make it ugly and scary looking like yours!" I glare at Pierce, his loud laughter at my upset state makes me even more mad. I see the dark circles beneath his eyes and can't h

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOURMALAKAI **Can you love a person so much that you hate them for it?is such a thing even possible?Pierce is beyond horrible; words cannot even begin to describe it, but every fibre of my being is honest when I say that I love him. Even knowing that his insanity knows no bounds that he is a madman who has been allowed to roam freely. Nothing and no one is safe, but my damaged soul, my messed up mind, and my broken heart only know how to love him. "I love you..." because I'm terrified not to, without these feelings, I'll be an empty shell. I may breathe, but I won't have a purpose.I have no excuse. I'm fully aware that I have been dragged to the depths of hell by him, but he makes this hellish cage feel like heaven, and I'm so intoxicated. I feel like that insect sucking the sweet nectar of a carnivorous plant. Only destruction awaits it.Pierce has shown me yet again what he is capable of; he doesn't even hide his demons from me; he gives me a glimpse and
