Sara ran into a tree and groaned at the impact against her head. She moaned as her foot got stuck in a branch and pulled it out ignoring the stab of pain that shot up her body. “I need to go, I can’t stay here.” She muttered to herself as she ran. Her goal was to keep as much distance between herself and Adrain, he couldn’t find her; he just couldn’t.She didn’t want to go back to that house, she couldn’t go back to that life. All the punishments, the insults, the disrespect, it was all too much. She had to find where she belonged and it obviously wasn’t here.“Sara? Sara be careful it’s too dangerous. Please come back here.” Adrain’s voice reached her ears and she increased her pace, her legs barely touching the ground. He was getting closer and soon he would take her back..no!She ran even faster, her beating wildly in her chest.“Sara, Sara be careful this place is unsafe.” His voice called out to her again and she increased her pace.‘It’s at least safer than being with you.’ She
“Adrain?” she called again raising her head from his body using her hands to wipe her face clean. She slipped her hands into his shirt and placed her ear against his chest. His heart wasn’t beating anymore, he was just quiet; too quiet.“Is someone there?” she screamed her voice hoarse from all the crying. “Can someone please help me?” she whispered as her sobs took over swallowing her up. This was all her fault. She had wanted to be far away from him so bad and now not only was she stuck with him but he wasn’t even alive anymore. “I’m so stupid!!”‘Well, you got what you wanted didn’t you? You wanted to be free from him, you didn’t want his punishments any longer, you couldn’t take it all and so you decided to run away. He ran after you to rescue you and now he is dead because of you. You should be proud.’Sara shook her head vigorously trying to push all the voices in her head away but it only seemed to get louder no matter how much she tried.‘…now he is dead because of you.’“Stop
Adrain raised his phone to his eye level and Sara paused holding him so he would not fall. She wasn’t sure if he was fine to walk by his own strength yet.If only they’d find signal so his men could get them out of here and hopefully to a hospital. She needed to be sure that he was alright. She would never forgive herself if anything happened to him because of her stupidity.“Any luck?” she asked, her heart in her mouth.He shook his head frowning and she sighed letting go of his hand. He staggered a few times on his own and then found his balance again. By now Sara was too carried away with their present situation to notice.“How many more miles until we can stop?” Sara sighed as she knelt on the ground. They had been walking for quite a while already and she was exhausted.Adrain paused in his step and glanced at her a frown on his face. “We haven’t been walking for that long.” He muttered and took a deep breath when she glared at him, raising his hands in mock surrender. “I think w
Adrain ran a hand through his hair and stopped walking for a minute. Sara was resisting and Damien was having a hard time doing his job. She was refusing to go to the hospital without him.Why was she being so stubborn and caring all of a sudden? It was because of her that they were in this situation. Or it her guilt that was making her care about him?“Boss.”‘Boss?’ Adrain stared at his assistant and very good friend with a frown on his face. “Its Adrain Sean, just Adrain.”“Adrain.”“And don’t forget it.”Sean raised his hands in mock surrender and smirked. “Yes sir.”Adrain shot him a dirty scowl and Sean chuckled deciding to stop teasing him. “Sara is giving Damien a hard time.”“I’m not surprised.” The smirk was back on his face.Adrain ignored him as he continued speaking. “She needs to get her injuries checked. She has a few cuts and bruises on her body.”“Boss.” He started and paused when his friend made an inaudible noise in the back of his throat. “Adrain, Sara mentioned th
“Adrain.” Sara continued to yell even as she was pulled towards a white limousine. Why was Adrain ignoring her? He had injuries so why wasn’t he coming along to the hospital?“Be careful with her.” Damien warned eyeing the men that were pulling Sara. He knew very well that nothing bad could happen to her. None of the men were allowed to be rough with her. Adrain will have their heads if anything happened to her.“Please get in ma.” One of the men said with a sigh.Sara stared at him for a while and then stood on her tiptoes to glance behind him. with a defeated drop of her shoulders, she reluctantly got into the limousine thanking Damien as he closed the door behind her.Damien whispered his thanks to whoever had helped him convince the lady to comply and got into the passenger’s seat. “Drive.”“Is your boss not coming along?’Damien shut his eyes and bit back a curse. “Ma’am, please just sit tight. We are taking you to the hospital.”“Your boss is injured as well. What about him? He
Sara got into the car whispering her thanks to Adrain under her breath as the door closed behind her. He had been ignoring since they left the villa. She wondered what was running through his mind and he seemed to be thinking so deeply about or if he was thinking about anything in the first place.Adrain got into the car and told the driver to drive. The silence was intense and uncomfortable. Sara shifted in her seat restless and not at peace with his calmness. She opened her mouth to say something and shut it again.“How are your injuries? What did the doctor say?” she asked finally finding the courage to speak. Her question was met with silence and she sighed moving to the other side of the seat putting as much space between them as possible.His silent only meant his brain was working on auto drive and it was never good because it meant he was either thinking about her punishment or something that wouldn’t be good for her. She leaned against the glass and shut her eyes drifting off
They were both breathless when he pulled away from their kiss first and stared into her eyes. His eyes were steady and didn’t give off what he was thinking.Sara’s skin tingled in anticipation of what his next move would be. He was a believer in the unexpected and seemed to derive joy in catching her off guard.He took two steps towards her and she panicked moving back until her back hit the car. She looked up and gasped at how close his face was. She took a deep breath trying to calm her racing heart.He closed the little space between them and Sara gasped when his erection pressed against her. She bit back a moan when his teeth grazed her neck and shut her eyes.Sara shrieked when she felt his hands on her legs and wondered what he was up to. He ignored her protests and swooped her up in one swift movement. Her heartbeat picked up speed as her body left the ground.The anticipation of what was to come and the fear of what kind of punishment he had in mind was eating at her and she c
Sara clenched her jaw and glared at his retreating back feeling the strong urge to hurl something at him. She tugged at the cuffs huffing when it didn’t bulge. “Adrain you can’t leave me like this.”He chuckled but didn’t look back at her and she groaned whimpering when the cuffs cut her flesh. She cried in pain when she tugged her skin free and leaned closer to massage the spot. This action only caused the cuffs to tighten around her wrists.He looked up then and frowned looking at her hands and then at her face. “I have told you it is useless to keep protesting, you can’t get away from me.”Did he want an apology? Is that why he was doing this? Sara admitted she did owe him a lot after he saved her life tonight not once but twice with that cooked up story, he told his father just to spare her neck. Would he uncuff her if she apologized sincerely? It was worth the shot.“Fine, I was stupid okay but please just uncuff me. Please.” She cried out in frustration and glared at him when he
