Ara felt sleepy the whole day. It had been two days since she had slept properly. Sleep felt like a far-fetched dream now as her mind was never at ease. She never felt safe enough to drop her guards and let sleep take over her, especially at nights. Within these two days, Ara had become distant and quiet as a mouse. She would speak only when spoken to. Angela had to shout in her ear to get her attention. Her strange behavior has started to worry Jenna. Ara had not only become reticent but secretive too.
"Did I do something wrong, Ary?' Angela stuck her lower lip out as tears started to gather in her eyes. Ara blinked out of her thoughts when Angela shook her with all her strength.
"Ary?" she grabbed Ara's face in her tiny hands to get her attention. "Are you mad at me?" her lips started to quiver&nb
"No, please...I..let me sleep here tonight," she pleaded miserably as a tear rolled down her left cheek."Get. Up. Now," he growled, irritated by her constant resistance."No, please..no," she begged again whilestrugglingto get her arm free from his grip. Anger stirred within him not liking the fact she was tryingto get rid of him. He fixed her with a vehementglare, causing her heartbeat to stagger. She stopped at once. "Please,' she squeaked.Not a moment later, he leanedover and pushed his arms under her waist and neck.Before she could understandwhat was happening, he had scooped her small frame up in his strong arms. It took her a moment to regist
Her senses started to wake up when she feltsomething moving up her shoulder.Ara swatted the stickyinsect away which had now begun to crawl up her neck. She sighed in comfort when the insect stopped troubling her. But a moment later, the insect started creeping up her neck again. She moanedin annoyance and lifted her hand to strike the insect away but this time something restrained her hand. Something closed around her wrist and forced it down towards the bedspread. Her brows creased in confusion before her senses jolted awake. The realization crashed into her like sea waves. Her eyes flung open almost immediately and the first thing that caught her sight was the dark golden drapes that were curtaining a window. The sun-soaked drape looked more light golden than dark.&nbs
"I...I didn't want to but he forced me. He said he will kill me if I wouldn't let him. I..I feel very bad, very filthy, since then," she felt the need to defend herself. Ara broke down in sobs when she finished her sentence."He forced you?" the priest now sounded concerned and very serious."Yes," she managed between her sobs."Can I see you?" he asked"No..no, please," she sputtered instantly. How would she face the person to whom she had just made her darkest, filthiestconfession? She was already very embarrassed."Alright. Listen to me, you need to report this. It's abuse, harassment. File a complaint against the pe
Mr. Serrano.Her mouth went dry.Killian, clad in his formal suit, turned his face to look at her. He was wearing a cold dark expression."Mr. Serrano," she whispered in horror as she clutched hard at the handle to keep herself from falling. Her eyes turned wet both with fear and anxiety.Killian, in all his elegance, rose to his feet and pushedhis hands inside his pants pocket. He squared his shoulder and started taking calculative strides towards her.Ara swallowed down a rock and clamped hard on the handle. His expression betrayed no emotions but the storm brewing in those gray-green eyes was too evident. She wanted to scurryaway like a mouse but her feet had frozen to the spot.In a few strides, he was standing right in front of her. He towered over her by more than afoot.She peered up at him as he stared down ather. His furious gazemade her shrink back in fear. 
His furious expression turned blank before it morphed into amusement."I see," he commented, amusement dancing in his eyes."Get in the car," he said before rounding towards his side. His psychotic behavior was confusing her to no end but she was relieved he didn't ask her to strip again.Ara didn't want to ride with him but she had no other option. The place was dark and gloomy. There was no trace of human existence in there.Ara quietly sat inside the car. Killian didn't utter a single word after the incident. They drove for ten minutes before he stopped the car in front of the sheriff's department."Go on and file your complain," he stated casually as he leaned back in his chair. Her shocked eyes snapped in his direction."We don't have all night, Bella. You want me behind the bar, right? go and report me," he whipped his cigarette and lighter from his pocket and lit it up.The smoke-filled the c
Ara rested her head against the car's window and closed her eyes, letting tears run free. She heard him jerking the engine into motion and felt the car moving. She felt the warmth of the interior and smelled the cologne that dominated the air. She was restless and numb both.She heard his phone ringing. He had put the phone on the speaker."What's the matter, David?" Killian questioned, amused."Sorry for disturbing you at this moment, Sir. But my junior told me that a girl had come to the department to file a report against you. I thought I should let you know," the speaker was speaking in a very respectful tone. Her eyes flew open when she heard it. Aretheytalking about her?"Really? What was her name?" Killian asked, feigning ignorance but thoroughly enjoying her reaction."Some Arabella Garcia. Do you want me to press charges against her? " the man offered generously. Ara's eyes widened in shock and&nbs
Ara was in the garden, sipping on her coffee.The big chunk of clouds were rolling and curling overheadin the deep blue sky. The coldwinds were waltzing through the trees, howling and whistlinglike joyouskids. She closed her eyes and tilted her face up when a thick droplet of waterhit her forehead, spilling down her nose, and, landing on her lips, a clear indication thatIt was going to rain soon. The weather was tempestuousand lively unlike her. She was drowningin a pit of despair. Her heart was destituteof hope. She had admitted that Mr. Serrano is an invincible monster and that she had no other way out. Her fragile heart had accepted defeat but what she wasn't able toaccept was her fate. Is she really going to lose her virtueto him? Is that what is written in her fate? But why? She couldn't understand
She was at the bus stop, waiting for the bus. She waited for an hour but no bus arrived. The day was only turning out worse. Just why?She sighed in frustration and reopened her umbrella. Looks like she would have to walk on her feet.She wasn't enjoying the rain at that moment.She was the only one walking on the road in the rain. A few cars swooshedby heras she walked towards the exit of the town. Ara had planned to stay away fromthe town till he is here. She innocently believed that the shift of town will save her from him. For now, she had planned thatshe would take a lift after exiting the town and let destiny lead her.The day drew to an end and darkness took over. She was still walking. Her town was small but right now it felt vaster than London. It wasn't coming to an end even though she was walking straight for an hour, moreover, the constant rain had slowed her speed. However, after half an hour
After recovering from his years-long amnesia, the former Mafia King vowed to get back his crown.They played him. His second in command and the love of his life. He was a fool to believe them. He shouldn’t have ignored the signs. He shouldn’t have let drugs impair his abilities. Now the damage was done.He now clearly remembered the night, his second in command had almost killed him.After assuming him dead, he had thrown him into the sea, hoping the fishes would eat his body. But no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot overpower fate.The man was rescued by the fishermen.Th
It was one month after their honeymoon did Ara find out she was pregnant. Killian was on cloud nine when he learned it. He was so happy that he bought Ara an island for making him a dad. However, the man didn’t know that the pregnancy would turn his sweet Bella into an always frustrated woman. Her mood swings were terrible than his. One moment she would be all cheery and in the next, the fire would be spewing out of her eyes. One morning she had told him to bring her pineapple cake. As the day went by, he forgot and returned home empty-handed. “Where is my cake?” this is how she welcomed him. Her eyes scanned him for her cake as if it would be somewhere on him. “Oh..sweety, I forgot it. I’ll get you one tomorrow, okay?” he walked over smilingly and pecked her lip. Ara gave a slight nod with her head hung low. Killian walked up to their room to freshen up. After getting fresh, he returned and settled in his chair. Bella was sitting next to him. He had hardly taken a bi
She was gasping and moaning while clutching hard on the metal as he thrusted in and out of her, discarding all restraints. Her hips hit the railing repeatedly as he pumped her violently.She was bent over the railing with her ass up in the air for her husband who was fucking her from behind like a wild animal. His large callous hands were splayed over her hips with his heavy balls slapping against her clit, every time he slammed into her. The shimmering Eiffel tower in front of her held no allure as her attention was captivated by his thick rigid cock which was currently pumping into her with ruthless ferocity.she could feel his hot breath on the side of her neck and the beads of his sweat dripping down on her inflammable back despite the cold night.He withdrew a couple of inches then
With a swift turn, Killian took over the maroon car.The smaller vehicle screeched to a halt. Killian opened the door and got down his SUV. He scanned the surrounding beneath his shades and lastly rested his eyes on the car. One by one, the men started climbing out of the car.Killian remained calm like the surface of ocean water. He didn’t react even when they yanked Bella out like an animal. The man knew one reaction from him could result in the termination of her life. So he acted unaffected.His heart was raging with a fierce vengeance but he held himself back and watched the man manhandling his woman. He silently vowed that he will make them pay with their blood for every drop of tears she spilled.The man didn’t know he w
Killian's POVHe watched her walking away. His Bella was leaving him. An excruciating pain tore through his anxious heart, benumbing his senses. He called her. He begged her. His vision blurred as he felt something warm trailing down his cheek. He was crying. His heart was restless, it was twisting in agony.The rough edges of the cuff dug into his skin, drawing out blood as he struggled against it to reach her.His pleading voice as he begged her to stay sounded foreign to his ear. He was a conqueror, he ruled his world with an iron fist. This voice was known for barking orders and issuing threats. He was never the one to plead but here the tables had turned. The man who ruled the world was on his knees now, begging for his woman to stay. It is in that moment he realized, how she had turned everything upside do
Did you or did you not trade the information?" he slammed the butt of the gun against the back of his head."I..I did..I am sorry, forgive me. I became greedy for money," Sweat poureddown from every pore of his body. As he joined his tremblinghands and pleaded with tears streaming down his eyes. He wason his knees."An inheritance claimed too soon will not be blessed at the end," Killian skimmed the barrel of the gun down his bloodstained cheek. The man looked up at him, confused."I reckon you don't reed bible, eh" Killian smirked. In all honesty, he also had never read the bible but staying with his devotee wife, he unintentionally had memorized a few verses. Let's say, he had memorizedhalf of the holy book. The consequences of marrying a
Killian was on tenterhooks as he spedtowards the hospital. Ten minutes ago, he was in his office, getting readyfor a presentation when Natashacalledand told him about Ara. He dropped everything right that moment and departed for the hospital where his wife was admitted.He hastily stopped the car and climbed out. With long, urgent strides, he walked towards the receptionist and asked her about his wife. One moment later, the woman told him the room she was in. Killian turned and hurriedtowards the mentioned room.He stoppedoutside the labor room and swiped a hand down his face in nervousness. Right on cue, a doctor opened the door and sauntered out. Killian stopped him."Is my wife alright?" he asked.
"But we are married," she looked confused."I want to see love for me in your eyeswhen you will say "I do,"he disclosedsoftly. This was the softest side of him. A side that didn't exist for the world. A side only she evoked and according to him deserved.Ara's lips curved into a smile as she raised her hands and raked her fingers through his silky sweaty air. "I would love to," she stated, lifting her head andbrushing her lips against his. Killian captured her lips into a heartfelt kiss."Pack your bags. We will head out in the eveningtomorrow," he murmured against her lips.Her brows pulled together in confusion."Where?" she askedHis eyes twinkled with excitement as he looked into her eyes."Paris," he stated and pulled her lips into anotherdeep kiss...........Ara stared at her reflection t
Ara had organized a family dinner to celebrate Killian's birthday. Sophia, Natasha, Santiago all were invited. The day was big and she didn't want to leave any stone unturned. Luckily, she had the whole day toarrange as Killian had already left for work in the morning. Poor guy, he couldn't get rest even on his birthday. But it was good in a way, he wouldn't have let her even out of their bedroom if he had stayed home.Ara let the maids cook all the dishes as she didn't know much about Spanish food. She only cooked Killian's favorite and thedessert."Bro, the enticing aroma of your food can be smelled from the maingate of the mansion. The guards areliterally salivating," Natasha entered the kitchen, eyeing the food with keen interest.Ara turned and smiled."They are in luck then. I've made some for them too," she stated."You are an angel, Ara," Natasha said, grabbingsomepieces of c
