As I carefully unraveled the bandage from my leg, Tears welled up in my eyes, a mixture of frustration, loneliness, and despair. For days now, I had been confined to the four walls of my home. It’s been difficult with each and every thing, I can’t go outside, and I had not had any with that I can talk to anyone from outside. I had been become prisoner of my own house. As the days passed, the pain in my leg gradually subsided, and the once angry red scar began to fade, becoming a mere memory of the trauma I had endured. The physical pain might be healed at some point but the emotional wounds ran deep, leaving scar which were not going to heal. The memory of that fateful day haunted me, replaying in my mind like a relentless nightmare. I could still feel the sting of his hand as it struck my leg, the shock and betrayal etched into my soul. My eyes again filled with tears when I remembered how he hit at my leg only because he thought I had tried to burn his mother when his mother was t
..*..*..*... As my chest heaved with each panicked breath, I watched him with a mixture of terror and uncertainty, his eyes gleaming with a wicked intensity that sent a chill down my spine. With a sense of dread knotting in the pit of my stomach, I waited in silence as he rose from the bed and disappeared into another room, leaving me alone in the suffocating darkness. Desperately, I struggled against the bonds that held me captive. But no matter how hard I fought, the ties held firm. After few seconds he again come up with something, my inner self went freeze as I heard the jiggling sound of his belt’s buckle. “Is he going to beat me with this?”- This was the first thought came into my mind. After all what can you expect when he had already rose his hands on me. But my entire notion turned out to be wrong when I saw him getting fully naked only wearing in his pant. He again jumped on bed and this time he pulled down my panty and threw it somewhere in the room. “Rayn!”- I voiced, t
..*..*..*.... "Mam, please come this way..."- A man gestured towards a way. Ivy couldn't help but to roam her eyes around, it was looking marvelous. As they followed their path and walked inside, one of the attendants politely requested, "Ma'am, you need to show your invitation card." Zoe dug into her bag and opened up a tiny black envelope, handing it to him. "Here," she said softly. The attendant examined it thoroughly. "Oooo... Too many protocols, it feels like I'm doing some kind of illegal stuff," Ivy whispered into Zoe's ear. Zoe laughed, and the next second, the door opened, revealing a different kind of club. They were soon welcomed by Daniel. Seeing him, their eyes felt warm satisfaction. "Here, there's too much protocol. They held us at the door for like ten minutes, as if we came here to kill someone," Ivy complained with a hint of amusement. "Goodness gracious! What is this?" Ivy exclaimed, looking in the direction Zoe indicated. She saw a bunch of men shaking their hi
"Aurora!!!" The name reverberated through the hall, drawing their attention like a magnet. Amanda and Aurora turned simultaneously toward the source of the call, their curiosity piqued. And there he was, standing at the top of the stairs.Amanda's voice echoed through the room, thick with emotion as she ran towards her son, Rayn. "Rayn..." she cried, her voice trembling with anguish. "She slapped me, Rayn. Your wife slapped your mother," she screamed, her words punctuated by sobs that wracked her body.Rayn's voice cut through the tension in the room, firm and resolute. His gaze bore into Aurora with an intensity that sent shivers down her spine, his eyes blazing with anger."You don't have to say anything, Mom," he declared, his voice steady despite the turmoil raging within him. "I have seen this with my own eyes."As Rayn approached Aurora, his steps deliberate and his gaze piercing, Aurora stood rooted to her spot, her heart pounding in her chest with a mixture of fear and apprehe
..*..*..*..*... Rayn had reached his limit. For over twenty-four hours, he had confined her to her room, hoping she would come to her senses and apologize to his mother. At first, he thought withholding food might soften her resolve, but she proved to be more stubborn than he anticipated. Locked away, she remained defiant, refusing to bend to his will. Yet, as the hours ticked by, but Aurora didn’t submit in front of him and his command. The door swung open with a creak, the noise reverberated through the room, causing Aurora to flinch. Rayn's piercing gaze bore into her, his eyes ablaze with fury. His frustration with her fragile ego was palpable. Rayn's voice cut through the tense silence, sharp and accusing. "Did you even realize that your stubbornness would lead to nothing but defeat? You have to bend your head before me? - Aurora swallowed hard, feeling the sting of his words like a slap to the face. "Do you ever want to know what your mother said to me? Do you ever?" - Her v
..*..*..*..*.... It was past midnight, when the door opened once again and loud footsteps walked in. Aurora’s heart stopped and dread crept up from the pit of her stomach. More and more tears falling from the corner of her eyes. She clenched her jaw, biting down hard on her lower lip to stifle any sound that threatened to escape. She didn't want him to hear her cries anymore, didn't want to give him the satisfaction of knowing the extent of her pain. Aurora wrapped herself in the white sheets and lay at the couch. It’s been hours since the incident happened at the hall. The whole situation fucked her up, it scared her to her core. The scene of Lucas's cries, the raw agony etched into his young face, was seared into her memory like a brand. She couldn't shake the image, couldn't escape the overwhelming sense of helplessness that had gripped her in that moment. The pain she had witnessed in her little brother's eyes cut her to the core, leaving behind a deep, gnawing ache that refuse
