After finding she had escaped from his house, Rican immediately went out of his house in order to search for her. He even ordered his men to start looking for her all over the city and every possible place they could reach to find her. “Some people said that they had seen her asking for some kind of address but she is not here, boss,” one of his men informed him on the call which made Rican clench his jaw. His grip tightened around his car's steering wheel. He and his men were searching for her for more than two hours now but they could not find any sign of her. Where the fuck she had vanished all of a sudden? “Do not stop searching for her until I didn't get her in front of me,” he seethed out and then hung up the call. He asked some people on his way about her and one among them informed him that he had seen a similar looking girl as per his description heading towards this countryside which led him here. Rican accelerated the speed of his car to the extent that it had started p
Nina felt her soul had started shivering inside her body in pure terror by witnessing the way he was looking at her. It made her feel like even her mere breathing was making him hate her more and more. He was glaring at her like he had never hated anyone more than her and it hurt Nina beyond her endurance. Seeing that unknown hatred in his infuriated eyes, Nina felt extremely shattered and broken because she didn't even know what she had done to deserve these looks of disdain from him. With his fisted palms and without taking his flaming gaze away from hers, he tried to step closer to her but stopped when he saw her backing away from him. He found that terror reeking in her eyes. She was feeling terrified of him and it doubled his wrath. Tears were falling down from her eyes which made him clench his jaw. He attempted to walk towards her again but she immediately took a couple of steps back and then turned around and started running away from him with her throbbing knees. Rican clen
Under that cavernously dark sky which had gotten completely stained in the gloominess of those inky clouds, they both remained attached into the embrace of each other. Their arms were tightly wrapped around each other.Rican continued to caress her head with his palm tenderly, hearing her wailing against his chest. Her body was still quivering in his embrace, telling him about those countless emotions inside her which were squeezing her very being cruelly. He continued to knead her head and hair to calm her down while holding her in his embrace.On the other hand, for Nina, she refused to care about anything and anyone anymore as she was feeling extremely demolished, both mentally and physically, to think about anything or anyone in that moment which was not him because all of this had become too much for her endurance. She had beared a lot throughout her life but right now, she knew even the slightest things were going to shatter her into uncountable pieces. Her state had turned that
“Why?” Nina's questions faded each and every emotion from his face. His gaze got deprived of that tenderness with which he had been peering at her till now. Nina could not even understand the storm of emotions evoking inside him in that moment because he was perfectly capable of not letting his emotions to show on his face with his blank numbed gaze but deep inside, her question had shaken something extremely deep inside him as he knew it he would give her his answer then it would definitely make her loathe him which he didn't want in that moment somehow. He didn't want her to hate him but he was aware that hiding the truth from her was not going to be a suitable decision in the long run. She deserved to know the truth and he should tell her about it but something inside him was stopping him from telling her the truth as he knew the truth was going to change every single thing between them. Getting stuck in that dilemma of what he should do, Rican looked at her and found her staring
Nina's gaze widened, finding a restaurant in front of her eyes. She gaped at it with her startled eyes while thinking why were they here instead of his house? But then suddenly it clicked her head.She snapped her head in his direction and found him removing his seatbelt. How wrong she was to think that he would not hear her tummy growling? He noticed every single thing around him. He was too keen headed.Rican was about to open his car's door when he heard her telling him.“I am not going inside like this,” her words finally gained the attention of his gaze on her and he found her giving her a look of disapproval and he knew exactly why. She didn't want to go inside that restaurant in those torn clothes of his, messy hair and completely messed up state.“Do not try to escape again. I will be back in a few minutes,” he told her but Nina clearly caught that warning laced in his tone. If she would try to escape from him again then this time he would surely pull that trigger of his gun o
Nina stopped adjusting her towel and took her hands down when she witnessed his eyes taking a brief but full overview of her body before his gaze stopped at her face. Nina felt her cheeks start turning hot all of a sudden, seeing that deed of his and why didn't he turn around like before this time? She swallowed in order to calm down her burning cheeks from turning more red because she knew her flushed cheeks were impossible to hide, especially when he was standing right in front of her and his eyes were already on her face. Lifting her hand, Nina tried to tug away the wet strands of her ginger hair behind her ear as her long hair were all over her shoulders and face but she noticed his eyes were still staring at her. What had gotten into him? Why was he staring at her like that? Was he checking her out? Nina was about to speak something but before she could do that, she heard him speaking out.“Did you really take a shower or did you just wear this towel to show off?” He questioned
Their eyes collided for a moment before Rican saw her taking her eyes down to look at his palm which she had been holding in her hand. “Come here and sit,” she patted on the place beside her on the bed. His brows arched in confusion but still he followed her words and sat on the bed beside her.Nina looked at his palm and found his fist was slightly clenched which made her sigh. When was the last time this man had felt relaxed from the inside? But little did Nina know that, 7 years ago, he had lost his each and every reason to feel his serenity again. He could never be at peace ever again.Lifting her hand, she slowly unclenched his fist and he just stared down at her until he found her eyes falling on that cut on his palm which he had gotten with that knife while fighting with those two men who tried to harm her.Nina's heart felt a stinging sensation when her gaze landed on his wound. It looked extremely deep and even very big too. If it would have been her in place of him, she mig
“Done being a pervert, Ms. Halzen?” Nina's eyes widened, hearing his words. So he had been aware of her presence here all this time. How foolish of her to think she could keep her eyes on him and he would not even notice it. His senses worked more than that tiny size brain in her head. In fact, his senses worked overtime for him whereas her brain believed in staying on leave even on working days. Nina frowned, witnessing now she had started insulting her own brain because of him but wait…did he just call her a pervert? How dared he? Scowling, she dashed towards him and stood beside him. “Did you just call me a pervert?” She spat, glaring at him who was punching that punching bag more aggressively now. “If your last name is Halzen and you are a Ms. then I guess so,” he answered, without stopping his punches. His answer hardened her scowl whereas the fact that he was not giving his full attention to her, had started irritating her. “Shut up. I am not a pervert,” she retorted back.
