His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 21| Invincible
The huge palace stood in its glory in the heart of the city. Flickering lights began casting shadows on their flawless faces and dresses once they got out of the car and it drove away, wiping out the distance between them. Kevin buttoned up his expensive black coat and stood beside her, holding her tiny waist. His grip was strong and possessive yet gentle. The feeling of his huge hand against her bare back was too much for Emma. But she didn't take it off as people were watching them. Camera flashes illuminated their path as they walked into the palace. She was a new face for everyone. Emma was holding her breath all this time oblivious whether it was because of the media and attention she was getting or was it his hand that was holding her waist, fingers even stroking her bare skin in between.A sudden surge of anxiety rushed through her body leaving her speechless as soon as her eyes witnessed the glorious surroundings she was forced to be a part of. People! There were so many peopl
His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 22|Slow dance
Beautiful chandeliers were lighting up the whole place. Emma was sitting quiet and troubled. It's getting really late. She couldn't even inform Mina about this. Her eyes began looking for him and found him at last. He was leaning against the bar counter, a puff of smoke leaving his lips before he held the cigarette between his fingers. Emma could see his lips moving as he talked with another man dressed in a white suit. The men kept glancing her way while talking, making her feel as if they were talking about her. Emma straightened up and ordered another glass of water. Shortly after the lights went dim and that adorable couple she met earlier walked to the centre holding hands. As soon as the music rippled, they began moving. Dancing slowly, bodies close to each other, eyes full of love. Emma smiled looking at them. How beautiful their bond was. She had no idea why but she looked up at his side again and found him already looking at her. It wasn't a coincidence. He was actually stari
His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 23| Burning lust
The corridor was empty and silent. Her fingers kept dialing Mina again and again as her feet moved towards the stairs absentmindedly. In the middle of the hallway, her wrist got caught up by a cold hand and soon she was pulled into a room, roughly. The clutch along with the phone fell from her hands outside the room. Before Emma could process what was happening her naked back was pressed against the cold door while the click of the lock was heard. Within seconds her fearful eyes met his lustful gaze and they widened in fear."Think you can tease me and get away with it?" Kevin whispered. He had her pressed against the door, his hands on either side of her face caging her between him and the door. "That was rude. The push! Don't you think so?" Kevin's alcoholic breaths bounced on her lips as he whispered near her mouth, his voice taking a seductive tenor."What do y-you want?" Emma asked, tone meek in uncertainty, body shuddering to see his tall figure hovering over her like a hawk."Yo
His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 24| Anguish
Jaws clenched, muscles tense, he looked at her ravaged state with fury in his eyes. Those grey eyes that once used to reflect affection and care for her were now filled with hatred and anger. An intimidating smirk adorned his face as he wiped the blood near his lips with his thumb. Kevin looked at the blood smudged on his thumb and then he looked at her. Angrily. Furiously. Bitterly.She didn't just slap him, she slapped his manly ego which he valued the most. And they say a man's ego is as fragile as a woman's heart and there's no way Kevin would let this matter slip. Forget this insult. Her rejection.Nobody has ever raised their voice while talking to him and the girl he thought was naive and innocent slapped him in front of everyone. He's shaking in wrath. Just because she was a woman he was holding himself from hitting her or doing something far worse. They both looked at each other silently holding each other's gaze for a few seconds. Her teary eyes had disgust for him while the

The sun rays filtered through the linen curtains smoothly bestowing the small room with a subtle orange glow. The night was long gone but her concerns never left her. The fear, the feeling of betrayal, his touch was still there. The marks were still on her body. Regret and sorrow were still buried deep within her heart. With puffy eyes and a bloated face from hours of crying, she woke up.Was it a dream, Emma wondered but then, there, on the couch laid the shredded red silk dress along with the ruby studs placed on it as what? A kind of reminiscence, perhaps. Flashes from last night rushed into her mind again. It wasn't a nightmare but a reality that was much worse. The door opened with a creak and Mina appeared, a small smile crept up on her face seeing the younger one up. Mina stayed the night as she thought Emma might need her."Are you better now?" It was the first thing Mina asked as soon as she entered the room. She had witnessed Emma's terrible state last night. It's heart-wren
His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 26| Crudêl
His deep eyes spoke a lot while roaming on her body ditching their shame. Emma shivered from the weird feeling of his nasty stare piercing her pride but she stood firm. However, within seconds, her body and mind became numb when she heard him say…“Strip!”She stilled, utterly confused. Rather shocked! Was there some misunderstanding or did he actually ask her to strip? Her mind spun.Emma blinked in a haze as Kevin walked closer, his tall frame hovering over her once again."Take off your clothes," he whispered, slowly this time putting pressure on each word showing he meant what he said. Emma gulped. Kevin's deep voice came off much huskier given the proximity. This closeness was alarming. Emma could even feel his hot breaths skimming the sensitive skin below her ear.Emma's big and shocked eyes looked into his grey ones. No traces of mischief in them. No flickers of the warmth and gentleness that they once used to reflect for her. They looked cold and intense. Soul piercing. Mocking

As soon as Emma walked out of his office, she sat on a nearby bench and let out heavy breaths that she didn't know she was holding all this while. It's frightening how he affects her to such an extent that even talking becomes quite a task. Her fake bravery might have helped her to escape this time but she was scared. The madness that his grey eyes were reflecting terrorized her. Her throat dried thinking about him.What has she gotten herself into?Emma opened her bag and took a few sips from her water bottle. It took her some time to calm down from the traumatic experience before she got up and began walking down the lane, thinking. Her life has been turned upside down since the day she met him. Appearances can be deceptive. True! How innocent she was to trust him. It's ludicrous that she thought he'd be nice and different. Emma's heart began filling with regrets as she walked down the lane, slowly. She wished she never met him. And even if destiny brought them together, she should

The night was falling when Emma came out of the cafe. The icy wind stroked her soft skin forcing her to wrap her arms around herself completely unaware of the storm that was coming her way. She was just a few steps away from the cafe when a limousine stopped near her, eliciting a sudden wave of panic in her. Danger, Emma could feel it. But before she could take a step back, the car's door opened and she was dragged inside harshly.For a moment, Emma couldn't process what exactly happened but then her eyes met his, and she froze. Goosebumps crept up her arms and her heart started beating violently seeing the swirls of emotions she witnessed in his deep eyes. Lust. wrath. vengeance.Why was he here again when she'd settled everything with him? He had already made her suffer, snatched her jobs, her peace. What else does he want now?

His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 32|The Wedding
A week passed in a blur and the day she dreaded finally arrived. She's had sleepless nights worrying about it, thinking about the things he would do to her. Marriage is such an important day for every girl but for her, it wasn't a wedding, but a sacrifice.She once had a dream of marrying a man who would love and respect her. But those days were long gone. Ever since her parents left her, all she could think about was how to overcome the difficulties and carry out her responsibilities well. Survival was difficult for someone as naive and young as she. She never had the time to think about boys or relationships because she had to worry about getting food and shelter for herself and her brother. However, Emma never thought that she would be this unfortunate to marry someone like him."It will look beautiful on you," said Mina, holding a heavy custom-made white gown in front of Emma who was looking at the rack of wedding dresses without any emotions.She seemed befuddled and lost. Even t

"Marry me!" he said calmly. His voice was subtle but his aura was commanding. "Be mine."Emma's gaze reflected uncertainty. What did he say and what does that mean? Fear and confusion battled within her, unable to believe the lengths he was going to drag her down and hurt her. Emma stared at his face, hoping and praying that he was joking, but the stern expressions on his flawless face indicated that he wasn't. He meant exactly what he said.Marriage? The mere thought of marrying him was terrifying. It didn't even make sense. They were insanely different. He's fire, burning with passion while she's water, calm and serene. They were worlds apart. "No," Emma hitched out a sob. "Don't-don't do it to me please," Her voice was soft, tone almost pleading. He's taking it way too far."Anything but this.""A person in need can't be demanding I believe," Kevin walked closer to her, his lips curving upwards slightly, a few strands of his dark hair falling fractionally on his forehead.Emma look
His Vicious Revenge   Chapter 30| Be Mine
It's a cold night. Heavy snowfall covered everything in a blanket of white. It was the type of night when most people would choose to stay indoors, in bed, or by the fire.Emma was walking down the road that led to his mansion. There wasn't a person in sight. There was nothing but emptiness, dark, and rows of bare winter trees that stood firmly against the icy gusts. Their fortitude and bravery were quite admirable. However, it was nothing in comparison to hers. Think about going to someone who wants to destroy you. Someone who wants to tramp on your innocence and cause you harm. Taking such a step demands great courage. Despite her immense fear of him and being well aware of the wicked things he intended to do to her, she stood in front of his magnificent mansion. She was indeed strong. Well, she had to be. That's what happens when you are responsible for lives other than your own. Emma inhaled sharply. Her subconscious was urging her to stop and think over it again. There has to b

Sitting near the fireplace, she watched the flames curl and sway, flicking in every way, crackling as they burned the dry wood. It was a cold December evening, she was sitting on the old but soft wool rug. Its soft surface was protecting her bare feet from the coldness of the floor. It's been fifteen minutes since her gaze was fixed on the flames—they had no appreciation of what had been given to them and no concern for what would be left after. The flames danced and leaped in the air, while the crackles of the dry wood made every other noise barely audible.It was the night after Christmas. What a tragic Christmas for the siblings. Though Emma did give James presents which she had bought at the beginning of the month when she got the promotion yet he didn't look happy. James wanted to be home. But it's next to impossible given the unfavorable circumstances.Emma held her tears back as she wasn't alone in the living room. Her brother and Mina were also in the same room, talking and p
