HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) Prologue.
BOOK TWO.~Prologue~He flashed her a demonic smirk after turning her face back in his direction. "Then tell me." Staring down at her with his jaws shut tight, he asked, "Who are you more scared of?""I beg you. Leave me." She tried to fight his deadly grip, but to no avail. "I am scared." Her struggle was getting violent. "You are scared?" She nodded at him fatuously. Because she was. She was hurt, angry, embarrassed, afraid, and helpless. "From whom?""Y-you!"He gave out a booming laugh at her reply, to which she jumped at the suddenness of it. "Me or them?" His eyes were colder than a glacier's. "You are afraid of me after I just told you about how merciless those people are?" She flinched at the tone of his voice as her ansty eyes wandered away from him fearfully. "Y-you.""Why?""Because you are hurting me more than them!"At her horrified sob, he slackened his hold on her completely. Eventually, he left the grip on her neck from behind entirely. Her tears tasted salty whe
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) 18— A past memory.
18— A past memory.“Hope is a natural feeling because when you have hope; you are never a prisoner to anybody.”— Saumya TripathiHow ironic was it to actually understand why the most dangerous place for humans was their own active minds? Wasn't it?It could do both: soothe you with positive thoughts or mentally crumble you into pieces with its overthinking negative skills. It won't take much but everything out of a person that has to offer before laying them bare, empty, and insane with no sense of knowledge about their surroundings or situations. It tears you apart inside and out if you let it control you before you control it. I blinked at the view before my eyes. With my posture crouched and legs surrounded by hands, head on top of the knees, I sighed despondently. The tip of my nose felt heated. The first ray of sun beamed brightly in the firmament, spreading the dark yet light hues altogether: red, pale, and orange, mixed up distantly, making it look more beautiful and mesme
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) Mistrust.
Mistrust. "He is safe and at home, well fed, and probably stress-free knowing you both are with me." Speaking in riddles, he answered, which confused me altogether, and my head snapped up in his direction.Safe. Huh? As if. "What?" I asked, bewildered. It took me a half second to realise it. Noticing his tone about knowing my uncle was something I never heard of. I had an inkling about him knowing my uncle, but my uncle knowing him? I could never have imagined.Why would an ordinary, retired middle-class man know a criminal like him?"Does he know you?" I blinked, turning my face to finally look at him. “How does he know you?”I was confused. "You did too," he said and gazed. “Once.”I stared.The black pools of his eyes were enlarged. "A time that I can never seem to forget, even if I want to."He was bluffing. Wasn't he? "Then, why don't I remember any of it if what you say is true?" My voice came out as a whisper, but with hesitation.Tears started to pile up in my eyes. Witha
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) Answers are what I seek!
Answers are what I seek! "Quiet down, will you, little one?" His voice was polite and composed somehow. On the other hand, I was everything but calm. I just shook my head negatively."No, give me the answers I seek! What're you trying to hide? Do you want to tell me that? Either whatever you said was just to lure me into believing your forged story or you aren't telling me everything. Just tell me, why? I say!" He pursed his lips together."Now, that is, I don't understand what you're babbling about, little one. I don't seem to comprehend."I negatively shook my head. “You do!”“I told you what you should know.” His eyes were blazing. “I won't repeat the same things numerous times for you to just keep on denying it.”"Why am I here? Is this what you are not getting, or are you simply trying to disregard it?” I yelled yet again. “Don't you already know the answers yourself? Or do you keep on denying it for the sake of it getting changed?” He took a step closer. “Let me rephrase it o
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) The hidden truth.
The hidden truth. I felt nothing but utter desolation, finding it inside my heart uninvited.Why have my parents never said a word about this? We stood there in complete silence. Both of us were too observed in our thoughts to say a word. My heart was beating miles per second. It was an understatement to say that I was frightened after knowing what had been stored for me. A hand shot out all at once and caught my arm, causing me to freeze. Turning my face, I looked down, only to find his fingers holding me captive. My eyes widened. “W-what are you doing?” My voice came out meek and apprehensive. He took more steps towards me. Twirling me in a way, I was trapped between his widened arms. “Sir?” I whispered, my stomach churning. He stayed silent. He seemed to disregard the plea behind my words. “Don't ever try to pull a stunt like you did ever again.” His voice sounded terrifying. “Move an inch from this room, and I will make sure you cannot move anymore at all.”I sucked a sha
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) 19— Deep wounds.
19— Deep wounds. “Knowledge comes with a price that not each one of us is willing to pay as it takes courage to change the perspective one has known since they have been born and brought into the world with morals varying from society to society.” — Saumya Tripathi “Accept it.” It was easier said than done! “How can I just accept it? Trust him? Hm?” With sadness in my eyes and a clog in my throat, I mustered up the courage to ask the question myself loudly. I was terrified. It was an understatement. “Why wouldn't I be?” I remembered his words as he spoke in his deep, throaty voice about the past that I had no memory of. I shuddered while recalling it. Each word made my nerves go haywire. "You had an accident when you were little, causing the memories to be interlocked in a certain part of your brain, letting you form a wall over it.” I could still even remember what he said to me. It was as if a dam of cold water had been broken on me. “We had a bond.” The
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) An unforeseen talk with Sabba!
An unforeseen talk with Sabba!She was hearing me burst out calmly. Her hand was soft and warm when she rubbed it with mine to make me feel like I wasn't alone, and I appreciated that. It was somehow soothing to my insides—her warm touch. “What is our fault, Sabba? Why are we here when it is so dangerous to be here?” I turned my face away from her. I was blinking for the prickling tears in my eyes to go away. “I-i want to go home, Sabba. I want nothing more than to go home.”She paused, and we sat in silence after then, staring at everything other than each other until she broke it. “Because even if this place is dangerous, it has people who have humanity left within them, unlike some people who are nothing but true monsters.” There was a scar visible in her tone. “I hope you never get to meet one.”My breath hitched at her choice of words. “And please don't say that.” Her hands tightened around mine when she kept on saying, “For all I know, this place is only where you are the safe
HIS FATAL SHADES (BOOK-TWO) Determination.
Determination. Calming my erratic heart, I took long, deep breaths. The anxiety that came from overthinking the situation wasn't making it any better. Neither would anything be accomplished by it. Having no choice left, I tried to stop thinking about the overbearing thoughts that were trying to consume me. Later on, I went to my sleeping brother, who was sleeping on his side, adorably. Sitting beside him, I stared at his small, innocent baby face, which had so much innocence and unawareness of the situation we were in. Blinking, I stroked his fluffy, light red cheek lovingly.“No matter how, I'll take care of you, Shaur.” Mumbling, I kissed the crown of his head. He stirred at the remark. “Wake up, Shaur. How much will you sleep, baby?" Taking his small form on my lap, I croaked, massaging his dark brown hair gently. I kissed him softly to annoy him enough for him to wake up. He pouted even in his sleep. I smiled in spite of my sadness and insecurities. Smooching all over his face,
