Seeing the commotion inside the restroom, Abram dragged Myra out, much to her horror. All he could see was red. He came to the club along with his acquaintance and joined his friends on the upper floor’s booth. He was enjoying his time, coming back after two years, and was engrossed in the cliche discussion when the topic diverted on the girl wearing a beige-colored dress and moving like a seductress.
As the lighting inside the club was dim, he couldn’t make out her face initially. One of the guys from the group claimed his stake and went out of the booth towards the dance floor. He almost reached the seductress and was about to grab her by her hip when the lights were turned on for a brief moment. It required Abram a second to recognize that face, and before he knew it, he was out there screaming bloody murder.
He knew the day would come when he had to meet his estranged wife, but what he didn’t realize was meeting her in this circumstance. She wasn’t looking hot; she looked like a sexy siren. If he thought the possessive part of him died a long time ago, then he was in for a surprise.
“Abram,” Myra’s frightened voice brought him out of his thoughts, where he was planning different ways to murder the guy who was planning to dance with her and then fuck her.
The onlookers gave the couple a confused look. Myra’s frightened expression didn’t go unnoticed by them, nor was Abram’s murderous expression. Myra noticed the stare they were getting and started protesting to get out of his grip.
“Not a word, Myra!” he growled, trying hard not to look at her fearing his anger would rein him.
No matter how much Myra struggled, his hold on her wrist never loosened. In an attempt to stop him from dragging her to God knows where she tried holding on to the handrail while they reached the stairs that lead to the upper floor on their way.
Where is he taking me? She was thinking rapidly.
However, her protest only irked him more, and he pinned both her wrist while holding her by her waist, forcing her to walk at his pace. She stumbled due to high heels and also trying to match his strides. In her panic, she completely forgot about Sharon. She wriggled in his hold but to no avail. The moment the exit came into her view, in a desperate attempt, she started looking out for Sharon for help; however, with the crowd around them, it was a futile attempt.
Myra’s heart almost reached her throat in panic, and the body heat from Abram’s body so close to her didn’t subside her panic. She knew his body too well to recognize the lava of anger boiling inside him. A few hours ago, she wanted to meet him, talk to him, confront him about why he was divorcing her, but now, all she could think of was ways to escape him. If anything, talking to him when he is furious was a disaster.
She didn’t even realize when they left the club and reached the parking lot. She frantically looked around for help. When she looked around, she first noticed a couple making out, forcing her to avert her gaze. Her hope arose when she saw two guys sitting on the hood of their car and was about to shout for help. She flinched, feeling hot breathing over the rim of her ear.
“Call out for help, and I would shove that tiny piece of cloth up to your ass and take you in front of them,” he whispered, breathing harshly through his teeth.
Myra gulped in fear and let him guide her. There was no denying he would do as he promised when he was this furious. Myra was smart and knew to choose her battle wisely. A black modified mustang resembling a beast came into her view. Myra had no doubt that the car was second-hand but was modified, making it look world-class. She scowls at herself for still remembering Abram's craze for cars. He always wanted to have a modified Mustang, even if it was second or third hand.
Upon reaching his car, he roughly shoves Myra near the passenger door before commanding, “Get in.”
She held onto the car to regain her balance, and manning all her strength, she replied, “No.”
I can’t let him make me do as he wishes; she mustered up her courage and looked straight into his eyes.
Seeing the glint of reluctance in her eyes, he lost his cool and banged his fist on his car’s roof. Myra flinched before a whimper escaped her mouth. This was the first time Abram intimidated her using his physical strength, and it would be a lie to say it didn’t work on her. A tear escaped her eyes out of fear while she cupped her mouth with her trembling hand to stop whimpering further. She didn’t need to turn around. The sound of glass shattering with the fist impact was enough evidence of broken window glass.
Satisfied with her reaction to his threat, he opened the car door slowly, and she slid in without any protest or question. Myra flinched when Abram closed the door harshly but stayed rooted to her place. Her chest heaved every time she took a breath; however, it came out shuddering when she exhaled. She had no clue where they were heading as she had other pressing matters to think about. She was scared at that moment would have been an understatement.
While she was contemplating what would happen to her, she overlooked her destination.
She clutched her seat for fear of the speed Abram was driving at. Abram decided to go against his protesting mind and steal a glance at Myra and saw her breathing through her mouth and clutching the seat as if her life depended on it.
Still the same, still grab her seat when scared, he thought.
He didn’t know what he was doing or where he was taking her. All he could think was taking Myra away from all the predatory gaze and locking her away from every man. For a long time, her ragged breathing and his grunts filled the air inside the car. To cool his anger, Abram hit the button on the console beside him and rolled down the windows.
Myra subconsciously leaned towards the window and let the breeze soothe her fear. Her long locks were tied in a messy bun; however, few strands brushed against her heated cheek with the breeze. The cool wind was having its effect on her, and she could now think clearly.
She knew she couldn’t escape Abram, and the evening would definitely end with them talking. She needed reasons. She wanted to know why he left her; she wanted him to tell her why he asked her to abort the child when he had already planned to leave her?
She was brought out of her thoughts when the car came to an abrupt halt, and the next second, she heard the seat belt clicking. She was still grasping her surroundings when the door opened, and Abram pulled her by her forearm.
She noticed they were in an isolated parking lot of a multi-residential apartment with no sign of humans around. Her heart was pounding against her chest, and her breathing was uneven due to the effect of her jogging as she was pulled by Abram.
She tried to stay calm in the situation. With her panic state, she won’t be able to get a solution. She let him maneuver her. To test the waters, she tried to get her hand out of his grip when they were in an elevator; however, he clutched it harder, followed by a growl. As soon as she heard a ding sound from the elevator, Abram dragged her out, leading the way.
She was looking at his back with fright, and the next moment a scream escaped her mouth when she was thrown on the bed. The impact caused her to bounce twice before her messy bun ripped open.
She could only hear her heart beating at an increased rate and his exasperated breathing. So far, she thought if she could think calmly and talk to him, she could rein the situation; however, the realization that he brought her to a bedroom drained all her strong facade down the gutter. All she could think of was to remain frozen or best to camouflage with the bed. With the severity of the situation, her logic too left her.
Meanwhile, Abram stood at the side of the bed with closed eyes and a restrained face. He took one deep breath to calm his fury and plopped his right knee on the bed. He leaned down and grabbed Myra by her shoulder. With a gentle tug, he made her face him. The first thing he saw was her closed eyes and shivering lips. He knew she was petrified of him with her rigid posture while lying on the bed and chose to approach her softly.
“What were you doing in the club?” Abram asked while holding her gently by her shoulder.
Why is he gentle now? What is he up to? Those were her immediate thoughts. She knew he would confront him, but she mentally prepared herself to hear him yell at her; however, his softer approach made her frown.
On receiving no response from her, he said through gritted teeth, “Myra, we both know the level of my patience, so don’t test my patience while I am asking nicely. What were you doing in the club wearing this…..” he trailed, running his gaze over her dress again to find the right word.
It proved to be a wrong move. Her dress slid up when he threw her on the bed, displaying her soft thighs while her swell protrude with the impact of him holding her. He lowered himself on his folded knee, pulling Myra closer unknowingly.
She thrust her hands on his chest to make a safe distance between them which earned her a glare from Abram, who looked at her hands on his chest and then at her for even trying to escape him.
“The last time I checked, I don’t owe you any explanation,” she said while giving a disdainful look.
That was his undoing.
“Do you even know what that bastard was saying about you? He was planning to take advantage of you, and what the fuck you were thinking while making the dirty moves on the dance floor? Were you trying to seduce some random guy? Is that what you became now?” He said with a growl.
“How dare you?!” Myra glared, her eyes already glossy with anger.
“You want me to tell you what such women are called?” Abram asked, ignoring her glare.
“What I am, or I was, is none of your concern now. Where were you when I was calling you all these days? Where were you when I begged you to talk to me?” she screamed, losing to her emotions. She kept hitting his chest with all her might.
“You left me!”
“You left me!”
Abram neither stopped her from hitting him nor responded to her accusation, although his expressions changed from fury to blank. When Myra was done hitting him and letting out her emotions, she whispered harshly, “You left me, and now you are pretending as if what that guy said still affects you, whereas the truth is you don’t give a fuck.”
Abram’s expression fell. Taking advantage of his shock, she pushed him with all her strength and got up from the bed.
“You don’t have any right to order me or question me. It’s my life, and I don’t owe you any explanation.” She said, looking straight into his eyes.
Run was the only thought in her mind. She knew she messed it up even more, but she was the one who was betrayed and not the other way around. She should be the one asking the question, not him.
Though she said each word with a stern look to him, only she knew deep down how scared she was to be alone with him in God knows whose bedroom. His impassive form or blank eyes were like the silence before the storm.
Run, Myra. Get out of here before he does something; her mind warned her to walk towards the door.
She darted towards the door and covered the distance in record time. While she was about to open the door, she heard him say, “Oh yeah, I don’t have any right over you? Then explain this to me?”
Myra frowned, waiting for his question. But what she didn’t expect was the shudder running through her spine when his warm breath hit the side of her face. The next second she was turned around, her back hit the door, and Abram smashed his lips over hers. At first, She was taken aback by his sudden attack and forgot to react; but when she felt his hand roaming over her body, she came to her senses. She groaned to show her protest, her disapproval of his kiss, but it only made him deepen it. She kept pushing him, but her strength was nothing compared to his. Wrapping an arm around her waist to pull her closer, he grabbed the nape of her neck to solidify his claim.
Though Myra struggled to get out of his grip, she was more petrified with the notion of how her body was reacting to his kiss. His kiss was dominating and all-consuming, and her reluctance only fueled his possessiveness. It provokes him to show her she could only belong to him; he was worthy of everything that involved Myra. Whether it was her smile, seductive moves, or heart and soul.
With their gaze locked, he fisted her locks, and she gasped with the action. That exact moment Abram entered his tongue into her mouth. His hard-on poking her stomach. She knew if he didn’t stop kissing her, she would be a lost cause. She started hitting him on his chest without breaking the stare, pushing him with all her might but to no avail.
His black eyes turned darker, and Myra found herself drowning in them. His locked gaze overpowered her sanity, and she ended up welcoming his darkness with open arms. Myra stopped resisting eventually, fisted his shirt, and started twirling her tongue around his. Fuck sanity, fuck breathing. All she wanted was to feel him.
Abram groaned into her mouth before pushing her into the door and squeezing her asscheek with fervor. He started grinding against her while guiding his hand toward the dress’s zipper. Abram wanted to kiss her only to prove he was still her husband; however, all his senses were gone when she kissed him back.
He let go of her only when both were out of breath and were panting. He briefly cupped her face and leaned his forehead on hers with closed eyes.
The deprivation of physical intimacy for two years couldn’t be filled with a kiss. He wanted more. She craved to feel him again. He was still fighting inwardly. The logic demanded he should pull away from her and talk. He made the mistake of opening his eyes, and when he saw Myra biting her lower lips innocently, he succumbed to his desire. His hand over the zipper acted on its own accord and pulled it down. Her dress pooled near her feet, leaving her only in her innerwear.
Myra felt hesitant standing naked before him. Like Abram, even her sanity was trying to bring her back to senses, and in a meek attempt, she tried pulling away from him. What she didn’t know was the ship had already sailed for her. Instead of backing away from her, Abram pulled her up by her thighs and kissed her again, brutally.
Intuitively, Myra wrapped her legs around his waist and grabbed his shoulder. Her resolve broke completely when she gave in to his devouring kiss. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she fisted his hair to kiss him fervorily. Her lips nibbled his lower lip before licking it and then twirling her tongue around his.
Myra moaned into the kiss when Abram placed his palm over her bra-clad breast before brushing her bud with his thumb. Myra had to break the kiss when he kept playing with her nipple, and a spark ran through her. When he pinched it once, she couldn’t help arching her back, giving complete access to her neck to his eager lips. Abram carried her towards the bed while marking her neck with his lips.
Placing her body on the bed, he trailed his lips from her collar bone across her hardened buds, leaving wet kisses over her belly. He halted over the apex between her thigh before clutching the hem of her panty with his teeth and pulling it down ever so slowly. A burst of carnal desire exploded inside him when he saw her core awaiting his ministration.
Impatient, Myra sat up on the bed before pulling him close by his belt and started unbuckling. He let her undress him. First the belt, then his slack, and finally his shirt laid on the floor before he crawled on the bed and hovered over Myra. He again kissed her on her lips while this time it was gentle. In her response, she parted her lips, letting him invade every corner of her mouth. Abram trailed his fingers over her bareback before unlatching her bra and throwing it somewhere on the floor.
Palming her breast, he started kneading it while still devouring her mouth like a hungry beast. Myra moaned in the kiss when he pinched her nipple, and the same spark hit her again. He kept tormenting her sensitive bud till she couldn’t take it and jerked her head up in ecstasy. Another wild moan escaped her lips when she felt Abram’s hot mouth over her other swell. She wound her arm around his head and fisted his hair in pure delight.
“Abram,” what was supposed to be a simple name came out as a chant of prayer when Myra felt the pressure building inside her stomach. The apex between her thigh was sleeked with her arousal.
His palm never left her breast alone while she could feel his tongue circling her nipple before sucking it. Her legs parted on themselves before Abram adjusted between them. Unaware, Myra rubbed her core against his abdomen to create friction and heighten her arousal.
Abram stopped abruptly, earning a protest from Myra. He laid still above her, reading her flushed face. From her lust hooded eyes to swollen lips, the rapid rise and fall of her bare chest and the halo of her hair around her looked enticing. For two years, he missed feeling her soft body below him writhing in pleasure, her sultry moans, and her cries when she reached her orgasm or the heat of her body compelling him to tie her to the bed forever, away from men in the world.
“Abram,” Myra groaned, wrapping her dainty arms around and biting his neck.
Yes, baby. He wanted to call her out, but soon his words died in his mind when Myra licked his hardened nipple like an eager kitten.
“Myra,” he groaned, and the next moment, he pushed her into the mattress, locking her hand above her head.
Wrapping her legs around his torso, his lips fell on her neck, earning oh from her. His tongue teased her reddish earlobe before engulfing the soft tissue, sending a tantalizing spark across her body. His hands glided over her silky thighs before reaching her bareback and stroking it featherly with his finger pads.
Myra arched her back while moaning. The next second, he started giving wet kisses on her neck and trailing downwards.
She fisted his hair with one hand as his lips were pleasuring her weak spot, while with the other hand, she dug her nails over his broad shoulder to control her from screaming his name.
A beautiful smile adorned his face when he was content seeing his marks all over her chest and neck. Pushing his finger inside her core to ensure she was prepared, an animalistic growl rumbled in his chest, finding her sleek for him. Without wasting another second, he entered her in one hard thrust. She shrieked, followed by a gasp at his sudden invasion, and had to clutch his muscled shoulder. He stayed like that for some time, feeling the warm cocoon of her core around his dick, and before he knew it, a moan escaped his lips in pure delight.
Gradually he started moving while holding Myra in his arms and kissing her passionately. The silence of the night was filled with their lovemaking, and the air thickened with the whiff of sex.
The next day’s sun rose with the brightest and coolest rays in sync with the previous night’s passion shared by two souls. Myra laid on her stomach, completely naked unaware of the daybreak. Her hips and chest were partially covered with a quilt, her hair gliding with the wind over her bareback. A moan escaped her lips, and she shivered slightly with the morning cool breeze making her eyes flutter.Although her eyes felt heavy to even blink, her other senses were high alert. She could hear the bird chirping outside the windows. She could smell a familiar masculine cologne, her body covered with goosebumps with the presence of someone familiar, and her heart beating rapidly on its own accord.That’s when her brain registered her surroundings and could recollect the passionate last night with someone who wanted to divorce her for an unknown reas
Myra was staring out of the window at the steady and dreary rain while her companion, driving the car, chose to remain silent, seeing her blank expression. He knew whatever she faced affected her deeply, and the disheveled look couldn’t deny his dread.Elijah signed, looking at her defeated form, and he knew even if he asked her, she would not utter a single word. That’s how Myra was. Anything that bothered her, she would not immediately say it out, whether it was her anger or her pain. She always kept it to herself, and once it reached her saturation point, she burst out.You are the best thing that happened to me. The best thing about you is your soul. It’s pure.I did the right thing by divorcing a whore like you.She laughed bitterly, thinking about how Abram’s view changed about her in just two years. Elijah could see; although her face was blank, her eyes were full of sorrow which she had been controlling.He was shocked when he saw her walking on a de
‘Shock’ was evident on Myra’s pale face.How can it be possible? She thought while looking at Abram, who didn’t notice her till now.He was wearing a crisp white shirt along with gray pants and a blue tie. He ditched his coat, indicating he was mid of something and had joined the meet in haste. Being 5.11 tall, lean built with toned forearms, he was visible to people even at the farthest corner of the room.He still didn’t lose his charm, she thought.There was a round of applause resonating inside the conference room, and the moment Abram was turning around in their direction, Myra immediately hid behind Elijah. Since the room was filled with more than 100 employees, Abram failed to notice three pairs of eyes with shock marred all over them.“Good Afternoon, Team. It’s good to see you all. You can call me Abram. I don’t believe in formalities. I am a man of few words, so I would directly come to the point. I believe in hard work and sincerity. I expect nothing bu
Mrs. Abram Aly, get your ass back on the bed right now.No.Are you disobeying me?Maybe.Oh, I will give you two options, move your ass or…Or?Or pray that when I catch you, I go easy on you.We shall see.Oh, you have no idea how much you are turning me on, my catty.Let go of me, Mr. Aly.Oh, my Persian pussy, never I would let you go.You are so gross.What? I was calling you a cat.************************“Mr. Aly, can you let me go?" Myra said with no emotions, although her stomach fluttered with the familiar warmth and hold.Embarrassed at being caught staring at Myra, he cleared his throat and let go of her. However, without giving a second thought the next second, he blurted out, “What are you doing here?"She wanted to ask him the same question, how the hell did he change in just two years.Why is she looking different? Abram thought while openly gazing at her from head to toe.Myra didn't reply
Every day Sharon used to drop Myra at her home since it was on her way. However, after hearing Sharon's rant about how he didn't take her out the other day, Elijah planned for a date night.“Myra, how will you go home?" Sharon asked. “I'll book a cab. You guys should get going now," Myra replied while checking for a cab in an app.“We can drop you. It won't be a problem for us," Elijah joined them.“It's OK. This is not the first time I am traveling alone."Meanwhile, Sharon and Elijah bid her goodbye; Myra was notified that Abram had asked her to meet him.“Now, what does he want," she huffed.“Ms. Nur, I am sorry to bother you, but I need some data urgently," Abram said without glancing at her and working on his laptop.“I need the customer satisfaction report for the last quarter, I hate to say this, but you have only 30 minutes to pull the data."“30 minutes are too less of time. I need to run a pr
I told you she is not what she pretends to be.Stop it!Denying the truth will not help you anyway, Abram.I love her!Does she?I want her to be happy, even if it means I have to stay away from her.Abram drove his car back to his apartment, “Why do you have to come back to my life, Myra?"“Wasn't it enough that I let you go once? Why are you making it difficult for me?" His trail of thoughts was interrupted by a song playing on the radio. It was the song which he sang and dedicated to Myra when he proposed to her before their wedding.On the other side, When Myra stepped into her house, she saw her father waiting for her.“Dad, why aren't you asleep?"“Ah, nothing. I thought of having a warm tea with my daughter. It’s been a long time that I could spend time with her," Rayan said, smiling from the couch “You made tea for me? Why did you? I would have made it for you," Myra smil
The cabin looked more like a war zone, with both Abram and Myra glaring at each other from time to time. “Add new criteria to the report. Apart from customer satisfaction, I also need data on their dissatisfaction. The client wants to see the percentage first and then proceed with the transit," Abram said in his monotone. All the while, he was busy with conference calls and was rigorously typing over his laptop. However, one call caught Myra’s attention when he answered with a big smile, “Ma, how are you?"Myra never had any issue with her mother-in-law Ruby, but she never stopped her son from divorcing her either. On the initial day of her divorce, Myra's mind was plagued with lots of questions, why did it happen? There were no red flags or issues in their relationship. Everybody was happy then why all of sudden they left her without giving a reason.Flashes of the past made her uneasy, and she made an excuse to leave the cabin, which didn’t go
“Why do I have to sit with Mr. Aly?" she couldn’t stop but ask.“Well, because it’s a big opportunity, and he wants to mentor you, not you, but whoever was selected, which is you," Shane said as a matter of fact.“I don’t want to then," Myra blurts out, earning a raised eyebrow from other members at her reluctance out of the blue.“She will. She is just nervous; please give her some time," Elijah said before dragging Myra.“What are you doing?" Elijah said.“I am not going to work with him, Elijah. it’s too much for me."“Listen, babe. It’s a big opportunity; if you pull this presentation, your promotion is confirmed. Please don’t lose this because of him. You already lost so much because of him."“But-" before Myra could retort, Sharon interrupted her, “Elijah is right, don’t let that dickhead screw your opportunity."“Sharon, language Please," Elijah sighed.The following day, as instructed by Shane,
“No, it’s perfect,” Myra said, both oblivious that they were still holding their hands while looking into each other’s eyes with love. However, their moment was broken when a nurse came in carrying their son Amayr, and the room was filled with his whimpers. Myra couldn’t believe a few hours ago, she was still carrying her baby, and now she could hold him. Her chin wobbles overwhelmed with emotions. Abram went behind Myra, supported her back over his body, and gestured to the nurse to bring their child. Myra could see his pink fist poking out of the cover while whimpering in annoyance. She smiled widely and let out a giggle, making her welled eyes start trailing. Her breath hitched in her throat, and she started crying, seeing her innocent son staring at her with curiosity. “He got your eyes,” she whispered barely audibly. “But he looks exactly like you,” he rubbed her back to calm her. She was shivering with rising sentiments for her child, and his warmth proved to relax her tensed
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
“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
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
“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
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
"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
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
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.
