“Bash..”Sebastian turned towards Zara’s panicked face.“What happened?”“I am scared to face Paula. She will kill me”Sebastian then remembered the hot tempered Paula.“You are right. She slapped me and cursed me a million times when she found out about your absence. She’ll definitely kill you but don’t worry I’m with you”They both planned to return but first Zara wanted to meet Paula before exposing herself to the public. Sebastian told her about Paula giving birth to a boy, Zachary. He also told her that he gave the crib she bought to Paula. Zara was so happy and hugged him in delight. She should face all of them but she has to know what happened to her friends while she was absent.“How come you are here with Susan?”This was the first question she wanted to ask him when she woke up beside him three weeks ago but she was scared to hear his answer. What if he said they are here for honeymoon or vacation?“She didn’t go out often after the accident. She requested to tag
After ten minutes Paula opened the door with her puffy eyes. Zara heaved a sigh and hugged her tightly. Richard stood dumbstruck at the side staring at Zara like she was a ghost.“I am sorry darling. I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I am scared to come back. I am really scared. I never thought of hurting you”Zara sobbed on Paula’s shoulder pouring out her worries. Paula hardened her expression and pushed Zara away.“Don’t ever come to my door step. I don’t have a friend named Zara Jones. She’s dead a year ago. She left me without a word and I am still grieving. Good bye”Paula could never forgive Zara for hiding the truth. How can she not come to her when she was alive? Doesn’t she knew her absence is unbearable? “Darling please”“Paula, mind your words. She’s been through a lot”Sebastian didn’t like Paula being hard on Zara. He can imagine her anger but Zara really experienced a lot more than them.“What about me? Didn’t I go through a lot because of her? I am ready to fa
He hugged her to his chest breathing heavily. Now he was sure she’s real. Zara held her breath because he held her so tight and she can’t breath.“Liam you are squeezing me hard”She managed to speak and Liam loosened his grip. He wiped the tears that are threatening to fall down and pulled her into the lounge area closing the door and curtains before warning his employees not to disturb them.“You are alive. How is this possible Zara?”He squeezed her shoulders shaking her violently. God knows how much he suffered and blamed himself for her death. He spent alone grieving in the island. “Stop shaking me. I am sick”She held her head and drank water on the table.“Sit please and calm down Liam. I’ll explain everything”After one hour Liam sat there in shock staring at Zara. He doesn’t care about anything. She was here and is alive that’s what matters to him. “So you want to be on the open stage to catch the spy”Zara nodded her head.“And you want to make your man jealous?
“Your abroad friend Selina works on VFX right. You can take her help”Zara put the laptop aside remembering something and wanted to discuss about Selina“Darling, I forgot to tell you something”“What is it?”“I couldn’t contact Selina”Paula frowned and put the bowl down giving her whole attention to Zara.“From when?”“I used to talk to her once in a while after I returned from my master’s program but later, just after I joined Wild group she called me once to tell that she was going on a world tour and that she’ll will be losing contact with me for three months. After three months I tried to reach her but she didn’t respond to any of my emails. I tried to talk to her parents but they were not sure about her whereabouts. They said she eloped with someone”“That was strange. Why didn’t you tell me about that?”Zara scratched her neck embarrassed “That was the time when I am involved with Bash again. I totally forgot about her. What’s strange is Seth, her best friend was
“Zara, you misunderstood him. Sebastian loved you so much but he was forced to stay with me because of our parents”Susan tried to defend Sebastian. She didn’t know what they were talking about. She never knew that Zara was kidnapped. Didn’t she tell her that she fell from stairs? But she chose to pretend like she know everything.“I don’t care Susan. I was tortured by the kidnappers and waited for him but he didn’t come to my rescue. Liam saved me and stayed with me all the time. Would you forgive Liam if he ignored you when you’re life is in danger”Susan stayed silent and tried to find words to talk back. Before she can catch up with Zara, Zara spoke again.“Didn’t you feel disheartened when Liam didn’t come to you when you were in hospital?”Susan widened her eyes. Did she feel sad? Rather than thinking about Liam her focus was completely on Sebastian who took care of her like a baby.“I came to you as soon as I got to know about you”Zara scoffed at Sebastian and stood up
“I am sorry. I am really sorry. Please don’t be mad”Sebastian held her hands on either side of her head. Zara turned her face to the side angrily. She hated his breath because it smells like cigarette “Let me go. You smell terrible”Sebastian was amused at her words and smirked leaning forward and started kissing her cheeks, ear and jawline. Zara can only think about the cigarettes and she hated his kisses now.“I am really not in the mood Bash. LET ME GO”Zara wriggled her hands to get free but Sebastian tightened his grip around her wrists. He hates it when she rejects him. He kissed her lips forcibly. Zara felt her stomach churning.Sebastian pulled her away from the wall and pressed her to the pillar on the opposite side burying his face into her neck. He sucked her weak spot reducing her struggles.Zara gasped and gripped his hair biting her lower lip. “Do you hate my kiss?”He whispered and licked her jaw line making Zara vulnerable. She looked into his eyes and pull
At night Zara closed her eyes to sleep but she couldn’t no matter what. She wanted to be with Sebastian so much. They didn’t talk for two days and she missed him already. She sat up frustrated and looked at sleeping Paula and Zachary. She kissed the baby and got down the bed taking her phone. She put on a coat, took her handbag and entered the elevator.She wanted to surprise Sebastian with a sudden visit. She smiled and imagined his surprised look. He will definitely jump in happiness if he sees her at his doorstep in the middle of the night.The bodyguards greeted her as soon as she came out of the hotel. She told them to take her to Sebastian’s mansion. They hesitated and wanted to inform Sebastian. He warned them not to take Zara anywhere without telling him.Zara was so angry but she didn’t want to spoil her mood. She promised them that she will take care of it. She really wanted to see him so badly and didn’t want to waste a second.After ten minutes of fighting, the bodyg
Zara woke up after two hours when she felt emptiness beside her. She opened her drowsy eyes and searched for Sebastian. Where did he go? She sat up slowly rubbing her eyes and put on his robe she threw on the ground earlier.“Bash..”She called him but got no response. She opened the bathroom to see it empty. She frowned and walked out of the bedroom with her jelly legs and heard a soothing guitar music coming from upstairs.She followed the sound and stopped in front of a room beside his dance practice room. She pushed it open gently and saw Sebastian playing the guitar with his naked torso.She leaned on the door frame folding her hands and watched him play the tune with a smile on her face. Sebastian knew he was not alone in the room but he didn’t stop what he is doing.He tried to sleep but couldn’t because of her. He wanted to stare at her beautiful face all the time. He really looked like a pervert. He felt like venting his happiness through the music so he came to play his
“Say something”Zara rested her chin on his chest and looked at him with her cute pout. Sebastian chuckled and sat up leaning on the headboard bringing Zara with him and put her on his lap.He wrapped his left hand around her waist and placed his right hand on her baby bump with gentle smile.“What can I say Sunshine? I am so happy and you are the reason for my happiness”He kissed her nose making her giggle.“Why did you hide from me?”Zara scratched his chin and looked at him mischievously “I wanted to surprise you”Sebastian nuzzled her neck with his nose and bit her cheek lightly.“Who knows about this?”“Grandma”“Wait! You knew it for a long time right. That’s why you rejected having sex with me”Zara nodded her head proudly like she did a great work. Sebastian kissed her lips grunting. He now understood why he felt her belly back then. “Stop it Beast!”Zara punched his chest and glared at him.“I felt dizzy in the village and grandma thought I am pregnant. I sk
The seagulls started squealing in the sky above the sea and the waves added music to their squeals. The Sun peeked from behind the clouds shyly to witness the most romantic wedding at the shore. The soothing music from violin and piano mesmerised the guests sitting on the chairs fascinated by the grand décor. The paparazzi stood aside waiting for the main protagonists.Sebastian never revealed about Zara to the public and he was so protective of her. He used this opportunity to announce that he was taken by a woman many years ago. He wanted the world to witness him marrying the love of his life.Zara was so against his decision at first but soon agreed because she didn’t want to hide anymore. She wanted to stand proudly beside her man and ready to face his world together with him.The whole world shook with the news of his wedding. It’s Michael who announced the news to the media few days ago about his son’s wedding.No one knows about the mysterious bride. Everyone thought Susa
“Wow..”The girls squealed looking at the venue from a far from the resort. All boys stayed at the other wing while girls chose the side close to the beach.Zara didn’t see the decoration because she wanted to see the whole venue on the wedding day. Just three more days, no one can separate her from her Bash.“Put this on”Stella threw a black sexy sleeveless mini dress at Zara for Bachelorette party. Zara shook her head and went for a floral long frock to cover her bump.“This is your party Zara. You should enjoy it”“I know, I just don’t like that dress”“Buzzkill”All others dressed sexily including Jenna, she wore a sleeveless midi dress with a slit. The kids were taken care by the elders. They all went to the party room and Lillian as naughty as she was called few young boys for the party and started dancing. Everyone started shouting and drank a lot.Zara stood aside watching them in amusement. Isn’t this her party? Anyway she’s not in the mood to drink and also it’s
“Hey lazy pig, wake up”Paula patted Zara’s cheeks who is sleeping in the trial room without trying the wedding dress.“Darling please”Zara waved her hands and continued to sleep sitting on the chair. She wasted all her time talking to that beast last night. Even though she only talked for two hours she is feeling so sleepy. “Are you alright Zara? You are sleeping a lot these days”They rented an apartment in the city. Andrew and Meredith stayed with Zara in that apartment so that they can easily travel to wedding venue for the arrangements. It's been two weeks since they moved in to the apartment. Paula and Jenna came yesterday to help Zara with wedding dress after settling their kids with their husbands.“I am fine. I talked to Bash last night”Zara stood up and stretched her body lazily. She didn’t want them to doubt her condition so she forced herself to stand up and tried the wedding dress with the help of the assistants in the store.Paula and Jenna waited outside ch
“Finally!”Sebastian hugged Zara from behind when she was applying lotion on her body in front of the mirror. She chuckled and patted his cheek smearing little bit of lotion on his face.“What was that for Bash?”Sebastian nuzzled her cheek inhaling her smell greedily.“I couldn’t hug you properly in the village with everyone around you”They returned back yesterday after spending a week in the village. She was so tired from the journey so she slept as soon as she came back to the mansion. Today he went to the office even before she woke up to finish his pending work as early as possible.The wedding is five weeks later and his mother strictly warned him to send Zara with her parents after a week because it’s not good for the bride and groom to see each other prior to the wedding.He argued with his parents and Zara’s parents but finally agreed when they told him it’s best for their future. He only had a week to have her in his arms.Zara sighed and done with her body care. Sh
“How about we celebrate with this?”She waved the wine bottle at him. Sebastian could never say no to his favourite wine. He filled the glasses with the wine and gave one to Zara. Zara sat on his study chair and wanted to take a sip but Sebastian snatched her glass. “What happened?”She pouted like a kid looking at the wine glass he just snatched. She is not fan of drinking but Sebastian loves wine a lot. She wanted to get used to it because she thought to be his drink buddy.Sebastian took a sip and bent down crashing his lips on her. He then poured the wine into her mouth.“How’s it?”Zara was bewitched by his smiling face. She forgot about the wine she just drank. The beastly Sebastian would never miss a chance to make love to his Sunshine. He didn’t wake Zara from her trance and started kissing her hungrily picking her up from the chair. He placed her on the desk removing her clothes one by one. The study room was a mess for the next few minutes. After all the hardshi
Sebastian attended a lot of auctions with his father over the years. Which one is she talking about?“The one in which you gave your favourite painting to a little girl”Sebastian thought hard to remember the incident and then it triggered him. He liked to decorate his room with lot of portraits. Now he filled his room with Zara’s photos. Before it used to be his pictures. But when he was a child he put lot of paintings in his room. He thought to add one more beside his nightstand so he bought the painting but a girl who was same age as him came to him and pleaded him to give that painting to her.He didn’t even spare her a glance because he was in a hurry to leave for his guitar class. He couldn’t tolerate her nagging so he gave that painting to her and left the place as fast as he could.“That girl is Susan. She thought you sacrificed your favourite thing for her”Sebastian scoffed shaking his head in disbelief. That was not his favourite painting and if he had known that pai
“Mom, did you see Bash?”Meredith and Esther chose to stay in hospital with Zara to take care of her. Michael invited Andrew to his house as they wanted to discuss about their kids wedding. Paula and Jenna returned to the hotel to put their kids to sleep. She saw all her family and friends even LTW who glared at her all the time. They warned her to meet them after recovery and she knew they will kill her then.She didn’t see her man at all. She remembered seeing him before losing her consciousness. Is he injured? But Michael and Esther wouldn’t be smiling if something happened to him.Then where the hell is he? Why is he not coming to see her? She woke up in the afternoon and waited for him for hours. It’s night and she’s feeling tired. Her eyelids were heavy and she badly wanted to sleep.Meredith and Esther shared a look contemplating about what to say. They were confused about Sebastian’s behaviour. He’s with Zara all the time before she woke up. After that he didn’t step int
“How is she?”Simon asked Sebastian who stood in the corridor outside Zara’s room. Her family and Paula including his parents guarded her. “She’s fine”“Are you blaming yourself?”Sebastian lowered his head and sat on the chair deep in thoughts. It’s not him who saved Zara. It’s Medusa. What if she still loved Susan? What if she killed Zara right there? “Sebastian you didn’t attack Poison because she didn’t harm Zara. Your impulse would’ve killed Medusa if she really did something to Zara. Don’t blame yourself”Sebastian still felt he didn’t deserve to be with Zara as he couldn’t protect her. Paula came out and told them that Zara woke up. He informed the doctors and they did a thorough check up on her.Zara didn’t see Sebastian when she woke up. She was a bit disappointed but then thought he was busy. Her family and Sebastian’s family took care of her for the whole day.Nicholas visited her this afternoon with baby Kim and Mary. The adorable Kimberly talked to her with her
