Zia continued to stare into these emerald eyes with that question roaming all over her mind that why he was here. The flashes of what had happened between them in his penthouse and in her dream immediately started coming in her mind which made her heart beat more rapidly. "Can't it wait for sometime? Damien and I are conversing over something very important?" Her father's voice took her out of her thoughts. She looked at her father and answered. "I won't take much of your time. Just a couple of minutes," Zia didn't even recognise how desperate she was sounding right at this moment. She just knew that she had to do whatever it took to get away even from that man's shadow and who knew, with what purpose he was there so she decided to talk to her parents with no further delay. "It's okay. I will wait outside, Mr Alcazar," She heard his deep hoarse voice uttering to her father which tightened something inside her. Her father, Zale, nodded at Damien, causing him to get up on his feet.
The shining white stars were beautifully twinkling all over the night sky. The light of the moon was illuminating, enhancing the celestial beauty of the night even more. The cold wind was blowing gently, causing her dusky hair to dance over her face who was staring at the sky. Zia was standing on the balcony of her room because she wanted to calm that storm of emotions inside her which had emerged after her encounter with him today at the lobby and her argument with her parents in her dad's study room. She had never thought a day like this would ever come where she would not be able to figure out what she was actually wanting. She never thought that one day she would try to run away from her own emotions. She had always considered herself sharp headed just like her father and strong hearted just like her mother but now all she could find was a helplessly vulnerable girl in her who wanted to run away from everything. How things turned this much messy just because of that one person? Th
"Wow…. you're looking incredibly beautiful in this gown, Zia," A smile formed on Zia's face who was trying on the gowns for her wedding. Dylan had selected one of the best designers in the country who was going to design his bride's wedding gown. Both the families together finalised the wedding date for the next week because Dylan was going out of the country for a very important business deal this week, so the wedding was scheduled for the following week. For the Alcazar family, Zia's father wanted to celebrate his daughter's wedding on a very huge level, a kind of wedding which would feel like a dream coming true so that the entire country could witness such a grand wedding of Zale Alcazar's only daughter but Zia refused to do it. She told her father that she didn't want any kind of outside world coverage and interference in her wedding. She wanted her wedding to be totally reserved and private between her and Dylan's close ones and family members. She wanted her special day to be
Days and nights passed like seconds and finally the day of her wedding approached her. It was tomorrow. She was going to get married tomorrow to the love of her life. She was going to be the life partner of that person whom she was loving from her childhood. She should be really happy about this …. right? But the problem was, she was feeling everything but happy. As the time of her wedding started getting closer, Zia started feeling more restless. She was feeling like her peace was getting apart from her. That evening when she saw him for the last time, after that she never saw him again. Sometimes she got urge to ask her mother about him that he had really left from the country or not but restrained herself from doing such thing because that was not her headache to take and she was not going to take it just because she was getting those irrational feelings towards him which were morally, ethically and in every possible was wrong…terribly wrong. Dylan had also come back from his bus
"STOP THIS WEDDING…. RIGHT NOW,"Every single person present in that wedding got bewildered by hearing that girl who was standing in the middle of the aisle with her teary reddened eyes. Cia's eyes widened witnessing everything whereas an extreme amount of horror washed over her realising…was her daughter's fate going to be just like hers? No…it couldn't happen. Cia tilted her head to look at Zale who was standing beside her and was looking equally startled by watching and hearing Chloe.On the other hand, Zia was too stunned to even process anything. Chloe ran towards them and got up on the altar. She grabbed Dylan's arm."You can't marry her, Dylan…not anymore," her shivering desperate words filled Zia with more confusion. Zia removed her veil away from her face and grabbed Chloe's arm. She spun her around forcefully."Do you even know what you're saying and doing, Chloe?" Zia seethed out, angrily because every single pair of eyes were on them and she was disgracing just not only he
"Will you marry me, Damien Karlson?" Every single pair of eyes present at that place widened, hearing those words from her mouth. Cia looked at her daughter stunned. She walked towards her and grabbed her arm. "Zia…. what are you saying?" She stated, turning her around. A tear slipped from Zia's eyes by looking and hearing her mother but she again tilted her head to look at him. "I made this decision for my marriage so I will get married today at any cost," she uttered, gazing at him. Cia turned stunned at her daughter's words. "Zia, marriage is not a joke. You can't just…." "But my life is, mum," Zia halted her mother. "My life has turned into a joke in front of everyone and before everyone starts playing with it or making fun of it, I need to stop all of this," Zia uttered before focusing her gaze again on Damien. "So tell me, Damien….will you marry me?" Damien didn't part his lips to speak a single word. "Zia, what are you even saying?" Dylan held her arm and made her loo
After everything, Zale cut short the wedding ceremony time and rituals and straight took the couple and rest of his family inside his manor. After what happened today and by witnessing his daughter's state, he decided that his daughter was going to stay here in his manor till she didn't feel like going away from here to live with her husband. Cia wasn't ready to agree to this but didn't defy her husband further and ended up agreeing to him and even Damien didn't try to crosscut Zale's decision because he could clearly see that Zia wanted that too. "But Cia….""Shut up, Zae. Don't behave so irrationally," Cia cutted him off in the middle. They both were present inside Zale's study room whereas their daughter was in her room with her aunt and best friend and their son in law was waiting in the hall to leave from there."He is her husband now and they both have to live their life together from now on," "But that doesn't mean they have to stay under one roof or one room," Zale argued ba
Zia's jaw tightened whereas her fist clenched by watching that insolent smirk playing on his face. She opened her mouth to snap back but stopped herself by hearing that knock on the door. Zia looked towards the door and saw two maids standing there, holding the tray of food in their hands. "Mrs Alcazar sent us here," one among them informed. Their eyes were downcast. Zia sighed and spoke. "Place the dinner on the bed," Both the maids nodded and immediately placed the trays of food in the bed. "Anything else, Miss Alcazar," "No, you can leave," Zia replied, making both the maids leave the room and close the door behind them. Zia exhaled heavily because that creep was still present inside her room and was going to stay with her for the entire night. Hope so she didn't end up killing him. Zia didn't look at him but she could feel his intimidating gaze on her all this time but at this point, she had become familiar with his creepy habit of staring at her and when the last time he
"No, mum. Me and Damien, we both are fine. Don't worry about it but that little girl….." Zia's voice shivered. She was talking to her mother, Cia, who had turned extremely worried about them after hearing about her accident near thar park. "No, mum. Please tell dad that I am fine and he and you don't have to come here. You take care of dad's health. Me, Damien, Dylan and Leo are here in the hospital with that girl," Zia stated as her parents wanted to come there to the hospital but she was stopping them because her father's health was not well too. "You take care of dad. We all will handle everything here….okay, I will continue to update you about here, bye bye ...." Zia hung up the call. With a sigh, she walked towards the operation theatre. Damien and Dylan were standing outside the operation theatre whereas Leo was talking on a phone. All of their faces had worn a tense reaction, especially Damien's as the operation of that girl was going on for almost an hour now. "Damien, any
"Congratulations, my baby. I am so so proud of you, Zia uttered, hugging her son. Her happiness knew no boundaries today. Her son had finally passed his high school. Though his grades were very low, he still managed to pass his high school finally. "I am so happy for you," Pulling back, Zia pecked her son's forehead. A smile appeared on Zian's face, witnessing his mother's happiness, and then he trailed his light blue eyes at his father. Damien walked towards them and looked at his 18 years old son. Day by day, he had started looking just like him. From his aura to his physical appearance, his son had inherited every trait of his, except his eyes. His eyes were the exact reflection of his mother's sapphire orbs with the only difference that….his mother's eyes always looked like they had a beautiful warmth but their son's seemed to have an icy coldness in them just like his dad's. Damien placed his palm over his son's shoulder and patted it. "Congratulations for passing your high sc
"We will embrace your fear together, mi vida," he halted her. Zia just stared at him. He cupped her face a little firmly."We will try our best to win against your fear if you want," he assured her. "Are you happy about it?" She asked him, sincerely. A smile formed on his face at her question. Damien put a kiss on her forehead before answering."You can't even imagine how much, but for me your happiness matters the most," Once again, her heart fell head over heels for this man. His love was a kind of feeling which held the power of overpowering all kinds of her feelings and emotions, including her fear.Zia caged him tightly and amiably whispered."I love you so much, mi vida," Damien beamed warmly before embracing her lovingly in his arms and answering."I love you more, mi vida,"………………Gentle waves of air were blowing. The swing was gently moving. The birds were chirping. The sun was shining beautifully in the light blue sky. A smile was playing over her lips as she was staring
"Yum….the food smells delicious, hubby," Damien chuckled, hearing his wife who was sitting on the countertop of their kitchen. He was cooking her favourite dishes as her final exams of her last year in college had just ended today. Yes…….. it had been almost one year since he had gotten this beautiful human as his wife. It had been almost one year, they both had gotten tied in that alluring bond of marriage. Their family bonding had even turned better in this one year. Damien had finally started opening up to his family wholeheartedly. They both still lived in their own home like they used to do before, but now at least for once, they both visited the Karlson family in a week. Damien had chosen to stay away from the public eyes and limelight in every possible way so he refused to be the part of Karlson's business and corporations which everyone respected and accepted. Slowly and slowly, everything had started falling back to its right track. Her mouth watered when she saw him putti
Chloe lowered her eyes and then wiped her cheeks. Zia's heart clenched as she saw her vulnerable state. Despite everything, they all somehow received something beautiful but that poor girl lost everything in all of this. Zia was never a fan of Chloe but now when she had started understanding people, she noticed that it was not always about whom you liked or not….the most important and relevant thing was that a human must feel humanity towards another human.Exhaling a soft breath, she walked towards Chloe. Zia sat beside her and then wrapped her arms around her face. She gently turned her face towards her and saw her swollen reddened eyes which were still shedding tears because Chloe knew that at this point, she had nothing to hold onto. Zia's heart ached and felt extremely bad for her.Gently wiping her eyes with her thumbs, she spoke."I should also apologise to you, Chloe," Chloe just stared at her silently."Because I was the one who never tried to behave humanly towards you. I
"Take your steps carefully," Dylan uttered to Chloe. He was helping her walk to the bed. They both had gotten back to the Karlson residence. Chloe told him that she should go back to her own apartment now as now she had no reason to stay with him in his house but Dylan simply denied her by telling her that she had no one in her apartment who would take care of her and she needed to be taken care of as she was still really very weak after what happened to her. Dylan helped her sitting on the bed. He placed some pillows behind her and then leaned her back against it. Chloe just gazed at him. Her heart ached, realising he was still caring for her well-being after what she had done to him. If it would have been anyone else in place of him, that person would have done so much worse to her after her wrong doings but Dylan didn't even raise a question at her, let alone hurting or humiliating her. His heart was really very beautiful and tender from the very beginning. The biggest reason she s
"I will beg to Dylan and Chloe for their forgiveness,"Hearing those words from his mouth, Zia turned startled. She slowly opened her eyes. Pulling herself back, she stared at him in astonishment with her glossy eyes. Wrapping his hands over her warm cheeks, he tenderly muttered."I will do everything to lessen your pain, mi vida….. even if it means to beg them for their forgiveness after what I have done to both of them," there was no lie which could be detected in his words or eyes. She could clearly see the sincerity and honesty in his gaze because for her, he could do anything….any single thing and it didn't matter to him what he would have to do for her and her happiness.Her heart swelled up with more love for him. This man was really her being, her soul, her heart. The things he had done and was capable of doing for her…..no one had ever done it for her whether loving her like an insane or ruining her in that same love of his. Each and every emotion of his belonged to her. He
"How is Dylan now?" Zale asked Reid as Reid had just gotten done talking with his wife, Larisa on a call. Larisa was staying with Dylan and Chloe in the hospital. "He is fine and has gotten back his consciousness," Reid answered, earning a nod from Zale. They all were waiting in the hall because they wanted to give Zia and Damien their privacy. Zale trailed his eyes at Cia who was sitting on a sofa. Her head was hung low. Zale sighed and walked towards her. He kneeled in front of her and placed his palms over her knees. "Have trust in our child, Cia. Everything will turn alright," Cia exhaled a heavy breath, hearing Zale. She looked at him and gently nodded her head. She was about to say something to him but stopped when she saw Zia and Damien entering the hall. "Zia," Cia said and hurriedly got up, followed by Zale. Everyone darted their eyes at the couple entering the hall. Zale and Cia walked towards them and before they could ask them anything, they got their answer by wa
PRESENT TIME"Zale told me that Damien wanted to get trained like him and wanted to work with him. I, as his father, was not ready accept it because I knew the risk and danger involved in it but Damien was adamant and like always, he didn't bother to listen to me and I understood, if I continued to deny him every time, it would make him hate me even more which I didn't want, so I reluctantly ended up agreeing to Damien's request which he made to Zale," Reid said and then looked at Zale."And Zale assured me that during the beginning days of his training, he was himself going to train Damien under his supervision, so less harm would reach him. It gave me a bit of relief because I trusted Zale and then his training began. Everything was going normal and I thought that Damien had forgotten about Zia because he never took her name in front of anyone after he left this country. I had told his uncle to keep an eye on him and he continued to inform me that Damien never took Zia's name even m
