EMBER's POV"Ivan, Ivan... I want to talk to my papa," I said as soon as we entered his apartment."Later, Ember," he said, and I gasped in pain when he let go of my hand. Oh God, it's hurting badly. I looked at my wrist and found his handprint. Throughout the whole way, he was gripping my hand tightly."I don't want him to get any false news, so let me tell him," I said, and he looked at me. I found anger in his stare."Let him know whatever he gets to know. Let him think whatever he wants to think. I don't care. I am here to handle everything, so stay assured," he said. How can he say this? The man he is talking about is my papa. I don't want him to misunderstand me."No," I mumbled, and without caring about my situation, he walked away. He will not listen. Oh God, please help me. I bent over to take off my heel sandal. My legs are hurting badly.I hissed in pain as soon as I took off my sandals. Oh, I got some bruises. Why would I not get them? He literally dragged me like I am any
Author's POVInsecurity about herself and fear of her father's reaction are not doing her any good. He still sees her crying her eyes out. Many women in her town have told her that she's not pretty, but she took their sentences as compliments because they were jealous of her. However, today, when he described her as not pretty enough to satisfy any man, it broke her badly. Well, she is not here to satisfy any man. She was here for her studies, but this man always makes her regret her decision."You aren't beautiful," he said."I know!" she shouted while crying."You are far beyond the word beautiful," he said, and she looked at him with her teary eyes. He gazed at her with affection."The word 'beautiful' is not enough to describe your beauty," he said."Shut up," she said in between her sobs."No, trust me, Ember. You are very beautiful, and I love every feature of yours. I was just joking. I didn't mean to hurt you," he said as he slid near her."Whatever I said, it was all a pure l
IVAN'S POV:"Okay... Be ready, I'll reach there in an hour," I replied as soon as I entered my bedroom, fully dressed and prepared for the meeting with Mr. William. I hung up the call and glanced at the bed, which was in disarray from our activities the previous night. There, lying amidst the mess, was a beautiful sorceress soundly asleep. Despite the restlessness she caused me, I couldn't blame her; I had been quite rough with her. Nevertheless, I found myself drawn to her as my heart pounded loudly in my chest, a common occurrence lately whenever she was around.Approaching the bed, I gently brushed away the hair strands that fell on her face, smiling at how peacefully she slept, seemingly without a care in the world. While I had important matters to attend to, I would go to any lengths for her. Examining the marks I had left on her shoulder and neck, I couldn't resist the temptation of her swollen red lips. I lightly touched her with my knuckles, feeling a surge of desire that awak
"Because I love her, and I don't think I can live without her. She has become the source of my happiness, and trust me, I will always keep her happy," Ivan said sincerely. "Yes, I scared her before our marriage, but now I don't scare her. I know how much you love her, but trust me, I love her more," he replied, though it was uncertain whether he truly meant his words or was just trying to persuade Mr. William with his words."You are lying~" Mr. William said, unable to believe everything he had just heard. The situation had taken a dark and complex turn, leaving Mr. William torn between his love for his daughter and his inability to save her from this manipulative man."Then I could have left your daughter after using her," Ivan said bluntly. "If I were lying, then I could have used her, but I married her. I am not using her; she is my family, the only family. I love her sincerely," he replied, trying to convey his genuine feelings."I know you are afraid for her, and I can't help wit
Author's POVIvan entered his luxurious penthouse and found it silent. She was nowhere in the living room. Maybe she was sleeping because she is an early bird who believes in sleeping early and waking up early."Ember, I am home," he said, closing the door, but he didn't get any response from the other side. His eyes desperately looked at the kitchen door. If she were in the kitchen, she would have shown her face by now, but no, she wasn't present at the door. Yes, she is definitely sleeping. Thinking that, he walks to his bedroom.Entering the bedroom, he found her sitting on the bed, and unknowingly a smile formed on his serious face. There she is, sitting on the bed, showing her back to him."Ember," he mumbled and threw his coat on the sofa. She turned to look at him. There he is, standing near the bed, taking off his watch."I hope you didn't mind me leaving you alone in the morning," he said without looking at her, pretending nothing happened."I missed you like hell~," he could
"What... what do you mean?" She asks."Your father is in my hospital getting treatment, and your brother is under me." He said, and her whole world shattered."I.. I will pay each penny... Just let me fucking go!" She cried out in frustration. "I don't wanna live with a monster like you... You hurt my family~""They aren't your family!" Ivan shouted, making her jump at her spot."I am your family... I am your husband... and this penthouse is your home." He said, making her heart beat loudly and crazily in the ribcage."You are not!" She shouts. "You told me you will leave me when you will be bored~""But am I bored of you?" He questioned."Don't do this, Ivan... You have already touched me, seen me... Don't be cruel and let me go... I don't wanna live with you." She said in between her sobs, and hearing her statement, he fumed in anger."You hurt my family~""And I will hurt anyone who will come in between me and you." He announced, making her soul shiver."Don't be surprised, Ember.

Now, he threatens to harm anyone trying to separate us. Papa, I don't want to live with this monster. Please save me.
