Her mother was in the hospital and failing to stay at home on her own, she called me over. “Hmm, what is it?” I sounded so cold. “Denzel, I feel so scared,” She whispered and was about to hug me but I stopped her. She made a crying face, so distressed by these troubles.And worsening her state, I replied nonchalantly.“Then marry him,” And with a crushed heart and fragmented dreams, of losing her before I could have her. My mate was lost before I could gain the privilege of having her. I had lost her. “What? What did you just say?”With an unwanted heart, I was confronting her. She was trembling, tears were glistening in her eyes as I became a heartless one in her perspective.“I said marry him. Kyle is the only one for you now.” My enunciation brought tears to her sapphire eyes. She was holding the hem of her dress. She found it extremely hard to believe after my promises and I couldn’t explain how excruciating shattering her heart was for me.“What? What are you talking abou
‘I am sorry, I am so sorry for having me in your life, for becoming the worst person you had ever met. Please forgive me,’I thought sorrowfully when me and Mrs. Duke was struggling to convince Eliana for the marriage and she was not listening.“You have to do this. Lives are dependent on your decision, Eliana, please, try to understand,”The power of mate-pull which I suspected she could feel was there. And it was not allowing her to accept anyone else anymore apart from me. When she had accepted me, she couldn’t think of another man.“Please, please, don’t say this,”“Why not, Eliana? Look around us, your father is in the hospital, Kyle is threatening you. Do you see any options available?” I growled, hoping to make her listen but shaking her head, it didn’t work.She couldn’t do this. “That doesn’t mean you will serve me as a sacrificial goat and make me marry him. When I said I won’t then I won’t!”Shouting, tears began to glisten in her eyes, pulling her hair with frustration b
PRESENTELIANA’S POV:-I was stunned to hear everything, I could feel it within that he must have a reason to do all this but his heartlessness silenced me.I didn’t want to believe it but the sting of it remained and now he had told me the reasoning, things he was afraid to tell me.I found myself being wrapped in a sheet of tranquility.“And when you told me you are pregnant, I knew I must protect you at all costs.” Holding his head, distress began to creep on his handsome features as he held my hand firmly and kissed them.I found it relieving that he suffered how I did, that me latching my heart with his was never a mistake. “Fuck whatever I will lose, I won’t make the same mistake again,” He whispered, voice breaking a little but he suppressed the heavy sensation and greeted my eyes firmly.“You said… save my life. I don’t understand. Papa begged you-”“Armiz can kill you and he threatened me he will kill your parents and take you away forcefully,”“Why?” I whispered, having no
“Please stay tonight, Denzel,”I didn’t know about him but my body was heated, my mind was intoxicated, my breaths were unstable with the urge to be connected with him only.He was staggered, staring at me in a hint of hesitation. I held onto his hands firmly with desperation creeping on my face. “Don’t go,”“Eliana…” Licking his lips nervously, he pulled hands away from mine slightly. The fire in body grew but he held an apologetic face.“Please don’t say this,” He whispered.“Why?”Bringing my hands closer to his lips so he could kiss my knuckles, increasing my hopelessness.“Seeing this bed already is devastating for me, to fathom what he must have done to you. It is already painful,” He murmured.“And that is exactly why I want you to stay.” Leaving our hands as I ended up gripping his shirt firmly, pulling him forward into me. My eyes were pleading with him to stay while he wanted to leave. “Weren’t your body in pain?” “Not anymore when you are here,” Taking a step closer
“Hey, are you okay?”After the cops left, Kyle held onto me in an oh-so loving manner as if he cared too much for me. “Why are you caring now?”Frowning, I ripped his hand off from me.“Where was it when I called you? When you considered my terror a drama,” I hissed.Going back inside the untidy room, watching the mess in the window with a growl lingering constantly on my face with him following me from behind.“I am sorry, Eliana, I didn’t know… I am so sorry, I was frustrated because of the accident,” He murmured softly.“And you took it on me?! How could you, Kyle!?” I hissed.Now after hearing everything that not only he forced and cheated, he also threatened to offer me as a slave to Armiz.He was downgraded from my perspective terribly. I feel disgusted, hating his proximity, not wanting to spend a moment with him. “Please, listen, I didn’t mean to get you hurt,”Coming behind me to kiss my shoulders but I pushed him back with my elbow.“Don’t you dare to come closer.”Glarin
DENZEL’S POV:-“And is that enough to seal your mouth?”Throwing the suitcase on the table, I folded my arms at my chest angrily with a scowl lingering on my features.We were in my car, in a secluded area to be away from the public's eyes and I absolutely hated it.Bob, the cop, smirked at my frown and took the suitcase, going through the money we agreed on not using my name.“Absolutely, Sir. Your name won’t pop at all,” He laughed a little.I paused, noticing the vileness dripping from his presence and it caused me to go into deep ponderings for the next few moments.Furrowing my brows, I studied his desire for money and I instantly knew, he could do anything for money and the dark, thrilling sensation in my bones elicited a spark.“Listen…”“Yes?”“Can you do me a favor?”“It doesn’t nothing, Sir,”“I know. Place your demand but I want you to interrogate Kyle.”“Why…?”“Wife called, yet he called it a shenanigans, how absurd.”To my words, he paused, narrowed his eyes suspiciously
‘Please let not anything worse happen now. Please keep her safe,’ I thought anxiously the whole way. Endeavoring to not gather around unwanted thoughts, I rapidly rushed to see her, praying for her betterment. I saw the window was still broken and not fixed.“Oh, great,” Watching out from the neighbors and others in the vicinity, I climbed to her room cautiously through it, catching a glimpse of her.She was pacing around while rubbing her hands together with visible stress plastered on that beautiful face. “Eliana!” Calling her breathlessly, I covered the windows with curtains and opened my arms to her.“Denzel!” Instant relief washed over her when she saw me and rushed to embrace me in her arms. Holding her firmly, I kissed the top of her head for assurance that I was here now and nothing could harm her.“Denzel, nobody saw you, right?”“Yeah, it’s clear. Nobody did,” I nodded, pressing her near me to help her loosen her shoulders and vex not.“Oh, thank goodness you are here
-Until the sound OF THAT FUCKING CAR CAME!Indicating the man I least desire to stumble upon right now returned from his shenanigans with my rival, honking his car.Probably to let her know that he came. ‘Fuck!’Gasping, we both pulled away hastily with an awkwardness traveling in us. She got up quickly, glancing from the window and saw him.“Oh Lord, Kyle is here,” She whispered fretfully, rubbing her cold hands together out of tension on how to deal with this situation.“What-What should we do now, Denzel?” She started to get dismayed immensely, shaking a little, not sure what to do anymore as I stared at her features to observe them.“I am so scared. He won’t hit me again, right? I-I can’t think straight,”Getting up as well, I held her shoulders from behind, snuggling to her neck. My breaths were uneven due to the lust traveling to my core, left unfulfilled. “Eliana, please, don’t make this face. I am here, right here,” I murmured on her neck.Gripping onto her firmly, prote
