"How are you feeling, Alisha? Are your feet feeling better now?" Mary asked, smiling as she once again changed the bandage.

A week had already passed, and somehow Mary and Alisha were holding up well together, but Alice hadn't come to disturb them. Alisha was just resting due to her injuries.

Mary was glad that Alisha was slowly returning to her usual self. She was healing—her wounds, her eyes—everything now looked happier than when she found Alisha at that monstrous mansion.

"I'm feeling better, Mother. I think I should start going to college now. It's already been over a week, and I'm missing out on a lot," Alisha said. She no longer felt the pain in her feet.

Since the day she left Alice's house, she had been getting nightmares, but they were slowly changing.

She enjoyed being with the kids and Mary's company. Slowly, things started to feel better. She didn't know how long this feeling would last because she still felt paranoid about what might happen if he came back and did someth

    "Alice, I think you should stay home today. It's been a week since you came home, so many days have passed without me seeing my son. Now that you're here, how about spending some time with me," Daisy softly spoke as she gently stroked Alice's hair while he lay on her lap.She didn't know how to communicate with him. He had been absent for a whole week, immersed in work, and hadn't returned home. She felt restless and tense all week.She reached out to his assistant and handled everything, but it seemed like he was ignoring her or avoiding seeing her face.This was unprecedented; no matter how busy Alice was, he always came home for dinner and breakfast, making it a ritual for them.But since Alisha left, he had changed. He was always a workaholic, but now it seemed intensified, and Daisy couldn't do anything about it.Daisy didn't want to pressure him. Whatever had happened, she felt it was better not to agitate him further, especially considering it was Alice."Mom, I know I have a l

    "Have a wonderful day, sweetheart," Mary whispered, planting a tender kiss on Alisha's forehead before dropping her off at college."Thanks, Mother. I'll be fine," Alisha smiled warmly as she stepped into the bustling campus.A wave of contentment washed over Alisha as she immersed herself in the familiar surroundings of her beloved college. Education had always been her refuge, a sanctuary she cherished, alongside the simple pleasures of eating and sleeping."Hey there," a melodious voice interrupted Alisha's thoughts, drawing her attention.Turning, Alisha's gaze met the sight of a girl with radiant brown hair and a friendly smile, making her way towards her.Perplexed, Alisha squinted slightly, trying to place the girl and recall if they had crossed paths before. The warmth in the stranger's smile suggested a level of familiarity Alisha couldn't quite grasp."Um, sorry, do I know you?" Alisha inquired, her voice tinged with confusion."You might not know me, but I certainly know yo

    Alisha winced as she agreed, unsure why she had even acquiesced. Breaking promises wasn't her style.But when Nishi mentioned it was within the college radius, Alisha rationalized she wasn't truly breaking her word. It fell within the confines of the college, so it shouldn't count as breaking a promise, at least in her mind."Great, let's go," Nishi said, taking Alisha's hand as they strolled out of the college.Alisha's laughter bubbled up, the sensation of having a friend was indescribable. It coursed through her veins, filling her with warmth and joy.She never imagined she'd find someone to study or eat with at college. Her only companions had always been the kids at the orphanage, her mother Mary, and Lucky, her pet dog.How could she resist or deny the happiness she felt from finally having a real friend? It was like something out of a fairytale.In Alisha's life, the adage held true: when you're hungry, you'll take whatever morsel you can find. After years of solitude, having a

    Alisha and Nishi both glanced towards the source of the voice, their expressions confused.Alisha's eyes widened as she gazed at the lady standing there.Her heart began pounding wildly."Why is she here? What's going to happen now?" Numerous questions raced through her mind.Nishi observed Alisha's pale expression and then turned to the lady, feeling equally perplexed."Aunty Daisy," Alisha whispered, feeling terrified for her safety, wondering if Alice would also be with her.Daisy, who had come with Alice for an outing today, had a sudden craving for something sweet when she spotted the café.Although Alice had wanted to accompany her, she insisted on taking a solitary walk.He reluctantly agreed after some initial resistance.As Daisy approached, Alisha's anxiety intensified. She couldn't shake off the fear of encountering Alice, unsure of what his presence might entail.Nishi, sensing Alisha's unease, placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder, silently offering support."What are

    The loud curse boomed as the waiter approached, spilling a whole cup of hot chocolate on Alisha, drenching her dress.Shocking both Alisha and everyone nearby, the attention swiftly shifted to them.“Can't he see?”“He's going to lose his job now.”“Utterly useless!”The harsh words rippled through the air, as if everyone had been waiting for such an opportunity.Alisha was stunned as the scalding liquid made contact with her skin, leaving it slightly burnt and reddened.She couldn't grasp what had just happened; her reaction was completely numb.Nishi and Daisy both sprang to their feet, grabbing tissue paper to help clean her up.“What have you done?” Daisy glared furiously at the waiter, noticing the painful redness on Alisha's hand.“We need to tend to this,” Nishi insisted, gently cleaning the affected area.“I'm sorry, miss, truly sorry,” the waiter pleaded, fearing the consequences of his mistake and the looming threat of losing his job.He knew he had blundered, and judging by

    Alisha winced as Alice dug his thumbnail into the red, aching wound of her hand."Why are you hissing, sweetheart? Your lips against my palm are doing a lot more than they should," Alice said, looking at Alisha in the mirror and feeling much better after seeing her after a week.Today, he came to fulfil a promise to his mom, spending time with her in the park. As they were enjoying themselves,Daisy had a craving for something sweet, and he offered to fetch it for her, but she insisted on going herself. He agreed, knowing his mother's stubborn nature all too well.However, when Daisy didn't show up after going into the cafe, he grew tense, fearing someone had harmed her. As a Mafia member with many enemies, he never let his mom roam around alone, but Daisy's stubbornness meant he had to relent.To find her, he entered the cafe and witnessed the whole scene of the waiter spilling hot chocolate on his Angel. He was mesmerised by seeing her sitting beside his mom, his heart beating wil

    Alice watched the tears spill from Alisha's eyes, observing how she forced them out, almost as if she were challenging him. It both frustrated and intrigued him that his presence alone couldn't elicit genuine tears, especially after what she had done—leaving him. It felt like she was poking at his ego with her fake tears.He couldn't deny finding her tears somewhat cute, but the way she looked, it was exaggerated.“Sweetheart, that's not how you cry. Let me show you,” Alice's voice dripped with malice as he grabbed Alisha's hair and forcefully slammed her head into the wall, not exerting too much force but enough to leave her with a concussion.“Ahhh!” Alisha cried out in pain, feeling her face scrape against the rough surface of the wall.Alice pressed his body against hers, his aroused state evident as his hands tangled in her hair and pinned one of her hands behind her back. The side of Alisha's head began to bleed from the impact.“See, I told you. If you don't cry, you're going t

    Alisha shot him a sidelong glance, incredulous, as he suggested she could leave.With his chin still resting on her shoulder and his breath sending shivers down her spine.Alice uttered his demand, seemingly unconcerned. "I'm willing to let you go, Angel, but only if you're on your knees, lips in the right place, sucking me, giving me what I want. Maybe then I won't change my mind."His gaze pierced her, as if he could devour her whole, and she knew he could do it without hesitation.He was confident in his abilities, determined to indulge in the pleasure he desired.If Alisha still harboured this desire to leave him, how could he refuse? How could he deny his Angel? He couldn't. So he would do what was necessary.Alisha stared at him, struggling to comprehend his words about sucking and placing her lips in the right spot. The explicit instructions overwhelmed her.Alice smiled, not a genuine one, but rather lopsided and slightly unhinged, making him seem even more unpredictable."Wha

    Alisha raised her head, her doe-sized eyes filled with terror and innocence simultaneously, met his gaze.Shock etched on her face as she struggled to decipher his words, aware they carried more weight than they seemed.“I said stand up, sweetheart. Did you hear me?” Alice commanded, one eyebrow raised, jaw clenched.Too weak from standing too long, Alisha felt immobilised.It wasn't just fatigue, but fear rendering her unable to move; the metallic tang of blood assaulting her senses, the dampness on her neck and feet screaming of the dire situation.Summoning all her strength, she rose, keeping her gaze fixed on him, knowing any shift would only provoke him further.“You know what you've done wrong?” Alice's voice, cold as ice, pierced the silence.That's exactly how he sounded—cold and dangerous.Wrong? Alisha replayed the scene in her mind, struggling to identify her error.She couldn't recall any misstep; it was him twisting her words, unfairly blaming her and growing increasingly

    “Ahhh!!!!!”Alisha screamed in shock as she fell to the floor, startled by the sudden sound of Alice punching the glass table, causing it to crack in the middle.As Alice stood up, his knuckles bleeding from the impact, he ignored the pain and directed his gaze towards Alisha, who was now on the floor with her hands covering her ears, looking pale and frightened.Internally seething with anger, Alice couldn't comprehend how Alisha could feel pity for someone else when she seemed to only harbour disgust and hatred towards him."What's wrong, Alisha? Why are you scared now?" Alice's voice was laced with bitterness as he extended his hand towards her, blood dripping onto the floor. "Don't you feel pity for me now? I'm bleeding too."He stared at Alisha with intense anger in his eyes, demanding an answer. "Tell me, don't you feel pity now? Instead of fear, you should be feeling pity for me because I'm bleeding more than that bastard guy you felt pity for.”Alisha felt a surge of fear and

    ‘Does he think I have no work?’ Alisha questioned herself, feeling hurt by his words.She did have work – she was a student and needed to study. But with him invading her life and not knowing when she would be able to return to her studies, more than a week had already passed.First, he took her with him and she went into a coma. Then, after she recovered, she couldn't leave the orphanage because Mary was selling the orphanage and they had to move out. And now, here she was again with him.He is parading her from his place to office, as if it's her who asked it.She wasn't free – she was literally forced into this situation. She didn't have her books or anything else to keep her busy. So, of course, she would appear idle.But what did he mean by saying she was "looking at people"? She had eyes, they were meant for observing. It was absurd for him to blame her for that. He couldn't make her feel any more annoyed than he already did."I have work too, Alice," she replied, her voice ting

    ‘Delusional?’ the voice in her head commented.Because that's the most sensible explanation. He sounds completely delusional, either unable to grasp reality or deliberately avoiding it.Who behaves like this, twisting words out of context and pretending they were the exact words spoken?"Now, can I go sit?" Alisha asked, annoyed, not wanting to continue the conversation. She'd had enough."Didn't you ask me earlier if I had an allergy, so couldn't you rub it? Maybe it'll make me feel better," Alice said, his eyes wide, giving her the most innocent expression he could muster.It was the same expression he always gave his mother, and now, to Alisha.These were the only two people he showed his inner child to, maybe with Alisha, he could show all his sides, even the ones he tried to hide from his mom."I didn't cause any allergies. I never touched you to cause it, so why would I rub it? And since when does rubbing heal an allergy?" Alisha asked, struggling to maintain her balance.Her fe

    Alice looked at her, moving his chair in her direction, spreading his legs wide open, his hand resting on his thighs."What good?" Alisha's mind rang, not understanding what he was trying to praise, as there was nothing to be praised.It had been more than an hour, she stood like a statue, her eyes fixed on him, even though he wasn't particularly looking like anything interesting to look at."Do you know what you look like now?" Alice asked, sliding his hand up slightly, as if he might pull something out if he continued rubbing his palm on his pants like that."What?" Alisha asked, knowing there was no way to dodge it.The way he punctuated his words made it clear how he wanted her to respond."You look all mine, the way your eyes are on me," Alice stated, his voice thick and seductive.Alisha felt awkward seeing him rubbing himself like that and sounding so deep. "Are you feeling itchy? Are you allergic?"The words slipped out before she could realise."Do you want to rub me? Because

    Alisha wanted to squeeze her eyes shut and disappear, but she kept them fixed on him, even as he sounded like a devil from hell.“I don't think it will end well if I have to repeat myself. It won't be 'sweetheart,' I can assure you of that,” Alice warned, waiting for her compliance.He knew she couldn't defy him, especially after witnessing his outburst firsthand. Despite any shortcomings, she understood better than anyone how to avoid pushing his buttons.Alisha cleared her head and looked at him, her breath caught in her lungs as if it couldn't reach her mouth due to the intensity of his gaze. Whether it was her imagination or reality, his eyes seemed darker, deepening her fear.“Keep standing here and keep looking at me, only me. If you move your eyes away, you'll face trouble. And I don't think you want that, do you?”Alisha swallowed hard, her throat dry with fear as she nodded slowly in response to Alice's question. “Okay”With a sense of resignation, Alisha kept her eyes locked

    Alisha's heart raced as she jumped in her place, hearing his loud and anger-filled voice, not knowing what had made him angry at her when she hadn't done anything to provoke him.He looked at her in anger, without any reason, his eyes screaming that he would kill her and then eat her, without remorse.She gripped both sides of the couch firmly, feeling fear coursing through her veins.“Tell me, what are you looking at?” Alice asked angrily, his eyes blazing with anger.The man who was standing also started trembling. Without wasting a second, he left from there.“I... was…”“What did I tell you about stuttering in front of me?” Alice cut her off, hearing her stuttering fueling his anger further.Alisha closed her eyes tightly, feeling even the veins of her body pulsating too fast; she could hear them in her ears. That's how scared she was in the moment due to his presence, his eyes, and his anger.“Nah, you like it when you defy me, right? Open your damn eyes, Alisha,”Alisha immedia

    "Yes, I am fine," Alisha snapped back from her trance, keeping her eyes on her lap.She didn't want to look at him with so many emotions swirling inside her head, making her feel overwhelmed."See Alisha, I know I am the last person you would trust to confide in, but if you feel anything is wrong, you should speak up. Even if I'm the last person you want to turn to, I'm still the only person you have, because you have no one else," Alice's words pierced through her thoughts.‘You are not the only person. You make sure of it by forcing others out of my life,’ Alisha answered silently in her heart.She didn't understand why he wanted to know if she was comfortable when he knew how his presence made everything worse. Suppressing the urge to say anything, she didn't want to break the fragile illusion he was trying to create.Alisha remained silent, her mind tangled in a web of conflicting emotions. She couldn't shake off the feeling of being suffocated, trapped in a reality she never ask

    After an hour, they arrived at his office.Alisha stopped crying, appearing much better than she had at home.He stepped out of his car and opened the door for Alisha. "Come down, sweetheart," he smiled, speaking softly.Alisha looked up, seeing him smiling and acting so gently, a stark contrast from his usual behaviour.Did he hit his head somewhere? She questioned internally."Sweetheart, come down," Alice repeated, noticing her lost in thought, gazing blankly at him.Alisha was startled by his voice. Without further delay, she exited the car and surveyed their surroundings. They were in what seemed like a parking lot.However, besides Alice's car, there were no other vehicles parked in the spacious area.His driver remained seated inside the car, as Alice was the first to alight."Shall we go, Angel? If you prefer not to walk, I can carry you again," Alice suggested, eager to lift her.He found it oddly satisfying to carry her in his arms, a source of amusement for him."No, I can
