The day Myra heard the truth from hiding, she was dragged to the mansion and imprisoned. The intensity of the shock and fear of being unable to escape him made her quiver in despair. When she couldn’t take it anymore, she chose to end her life rather than let him touch her with his evil intention. But when her captor reminded her of the baby, she stopped, thinking about her child. For her, her child was everything, her solace to every pain she endured in life or to the darkness she was held in.She slowly rises from the floor and freshens up, knowing well if she was late, even for one second, he would enter the bathroom. He was already placing the breakfast on the table by the time she was out. At the sound of the door opening, he turned around and glanced at her from head to toe.“I sometimes feel envious of my clothes. At least it has a chance to touch your bare skin while I’m bounded by my promise,” he said with a gentle smile as if he didn’t just eye rape her and instead gave a co
Who said death comes only once? For the entire night, Abram felt his body being ripped and torn bit by bit. he felt the wait for the next morning was more excruciating than death. With every passing second, he was driven to the edge. Never in his scariest dream did he think a day would come where he would suffer more misery than death just by waiting for the next morning.Ronan assured him by morning that he would come up with a lead since they could trace the ambulance and get hold of the driver. He wanted to talk to someone, someone to share his pain, but whom could he approach. Elijah and Sharon finally started to live together; he couldn’t disturb them, and what was he supposed to say to them? A covered pregnant woman asked for help, and the only connection was the endearment he used to call Myra with.It was not the first time he hallucinated seeing Myra and searched for her like a madman. One such incident happened when Sharon was with him, who was aware of his madness yet didn
"You are lying," Abram's rasped voice was heard.Daniel cracked up the next second and rested his head over his palm with his elbow supporting he looked at Abram with amusement."Let me guess, she told you that I left her? And what was your excuse to divorce Myra? I told Myra about Zara, but she trusted you. She defended you and said you never looked at Zara like that. With the news of her pregnancy, she thought all the misunderstanding would be cleared," he snarled at Abram."You knew?" he gaped at his friend."That was the surprise she was planning for you. I was helping her out. Isn't it interesting? You both divorce your partners at the same time." he added and noticed Abram's expression change instantly."I was made to believe Myra was having an affair with you, and she was carrying your child," when Daniel heard him, he froze, and the next second, fury took over him before he lunged at Abram. He pulled Abram by his collar and punched him one after the other."You bastard, is tha
While Sharon was moved to a normal ward, Abram requested Daniel to be with her while he checked on his father. For an hour, both father and son stood outside the operating room, waiting for it to end.As soon as the light above the OT’s door turned off, their stances went alert. “Congratulations, your wife is out of the coma. Everything went well, but we have sedated her for recovery,” Dr. James announced, removing his mask.“Out of coma?” Noah asked dumbfounded“Yes, Mr. Aly. Earlier, when her body went into shock, it was a reaction to the treatment, but still, we have to remove the clot to avoid future complications. Didn’t I say miracles happen?” he smiled, patting Noah’s shoulders.“We will move her into the ward soon. By the way, who is Zara? The patient was crying whiile calling her name.”The moment Abram heard the doctor, the missed piece finally was put in its right place. The surrounding blurred around him and his eyes flashed with determination. Inside Sharon’s ward:“Zar
“Would you not invite us inside Zara?” Abram asked with a wicked smile.The fear and the hesitation on her face were enough to concrete his suspicion of her. When she didn’t reply, he barged in with force making her stumble back, followed by Ronan, who secured the exit. “What…how…do you know this place?” she stuttered, gaping at how her escape was blocked by a stranger.“The same way you came to know I was hospitalized. Funny, Dad told me it was you who called him that day and not the other way around,” as soon as he said, her face blanched.“Y-yes…I….c-came back that day and…a-and wanted to check about Ruby aunty,” she stammered with shallow breathing.“Oh, I forgot to mention, Mom is awake now, and she was asking about you,” he said, plopping on the couch and spreading his arms on the backrest.As he anticipated, she went rigid and gaped at him. “Zara, are you not happy hearing about Mom?” he asked gently, gauging her reaction.“I-I….am h-happy,” she forced a smile but was unsucce
If Zara’s betrayal was a hit to him, it was nothing compared to the betrayal he felt seeing the person in front of him. Of all the people, he never expected him to be the culprit. “Weren’t you coming back on the next flight?” Abram asked, turning around and facing him.“Indeed I was. I was about to leave, but my motion sensor alerted me of your arrival,” he replied.Green orbs against black ones.“Why Elijah?” Abram strides towards him even though Ronan warns him to take cover.“What’s the hurry? Let me first welcome you properly. If my mother was alive, she would have beaten me to death for my lack of manners,” he chuckled dryly.“You can ask your friend to come out too. I am not armed. I am a peace-loving person,” he laughed over his joke.Ronan cursed Abram and pointed the gun at Elijah, who immediately raised his hand in surrender. “I am at your mercy, Sir; you can check me if you want,” the plastered smile never leaves his face. Zara was still kneeling beside him, not making ey
“You still haven’t answered. Why did you do all this?” Abram asked, clenching his jaw.“Baby, care to explain how he learned about you staying here?” Instead of replying to Abram’s question, Elijah grazed his lips over her neck in a deliberately slow move.Myra’s chest heaved in dread recollecting his earlier warning. After staying with him for three months and seeing craze in his eyes for her, she was aware of where her silence would land her and Abram.“I…..I.. don’t…” she shook her head when as a warning, he bit her shoulder before he interrupted her, “doesn’t matter now.”Abram couldn’t help opening his eyes at her wince and yell, “Stop fucking touching her!”“Oh, but I have been doing more than touching Myra for the last three months. Isn’t it, baby?” Myra wanted to refute it, but she couldn’t deny it. And even if she wants to prove her innocence, why would she do it in the first place? Wasn’t her image worse than a whore in Abram’s eyes? Wasn’t she just a toy for him to play wi
Myra stood frozen in her place even when Elijah lay unconscious on the floor. Pain, anger, frustration, and every emotion rushed through her. She didn’t know what would happen to her or how she would deal with the aftermath of going through so much, but she couldn’t care less. She was done with being the damsel, with people breaking her trust. At that point, something snapped inside her. She was so overwhelmed that she didn’t realize the absence of her baby kicking inside her and a bubbling pain rushing through her spine. She didn’t even notice Daniel coming closer and untying her hands. She didn’t hear him talking to her rapidly. All she could feel was a sudden wave of pain passing through her back and abdomen. A heart-wrecking scream left her mouth as her body gave up, resisting the ripples of pain across her body. For a moment, the surroundings went blank for her; the only sound she could hear was her accelerating heartbeat. She knew she would hit the ground at any moment, but two
