STUCK Chapter 34
It had been the most peaceful week of her life.Locked away in the far woods dwelled another frantino mansion. Not knowing exactly where they were Tara kept her curiosity to herself. It was evening by the time they reached. Absolutely bereft of people and concrete whatsoever, Tara watched the mountains from the terrace of the only bedroom of the cozy house. Majestic as expected there was nothing else she wished from life. Mountains, wind and sun.She breathed the fresh air as it insultingly thrashed her hair around. She didn't care. Taken with the thrown around coloures of the sky and the beautifully setting sun, Tara was mesmerized. It was her meditation to stand in open spaces and appreciate the sun and nature, to listen to the wild thrash of wind as it scraped her ears.Forgetting her existence for a moment, noticing her breathe as it blew by, feeling a strand of her hair that stuck in her lip and the bat of her eyelashes that made her lose the sensation of vision only for a brief s
STUCK Chapter 35
Week passed in a tense blur after their secret getaway. Tara didn't forget to notice how she was regarded in family conversations. Even after being an awkward outsider her opinion mattered. The frantinos would interrupt in conversations with English to feel her welcome in their chat, letting her decide the menus of their dinners and the themes of their parties.In the scary moments of her eye contacts with dominic it would become clearer and clearer that he walked on thin ice every moment. Watching her every move like a beast on its prey, not once did she allow herself to relax under his gaze.For some sacred reason he had kept his distance. Why she didn't know...she couldn't help but grow curious every day for his odd silence, the lack of storm.Don's absence didn't help either. He would hardly visit the mansion. In the rush moments he would take a brief second to watch her working in the distance and go away. From what she had come to know from their time in the woods an important de

"When?" His eyes watched her keenly, growing suspicious of her claim. Tara gulped. Trembling, she tightly held on to the table at her back, supporting her weight as the cold truth splashed her all at once. It was Dominic. For God's sake it was Dominic. She repented her mind for remembering the brush of his nose as it touched her skin, the swirl of his tongue as it licked her breast. A gush of bile rose in her throat. The sheer hatred she felt for herself for not being able to recognize the obvious ill-intentioned man quickly became the ache in her head, twitching painfully. Her legs wildly shook of terror, she grabbed her head in both of her hands, squeezing it to minimize the pain. As she started skidding down out of consciousness, she felt the arms that wrapped around her, picking her up and resting on bed. Just before she lost the contact with consciousness she felt the worried tap on her cheek calling out her name. She realized in what great danger she could have been if she
STUCK Chapter 37
He hadn't hold himself back. As soon as he carried her inside their suite she found herself pushed back against the door, his lips already on her. His unquenchable thirst was as evident as the current in the lightening bolt.Thunders roared outside their windows, shuddering the very aura of thick air but all he heard was the storm within that ignited an inferno in the coiling vortex, all for her, for the time he endured apart from her. Funny how for someone as concrete as him had started seeing their distance as an illness, an unbearable suffering that throbbed with her trivial memories only to be cured by her touch. Over the darkness that was surprised with sporadic flashing lights of frightening thunders, he only heard the click of their lips as they intertwined, the gentle touch between her skin and the tip of his nose as he dove deeper in her mouth, holding her delicate neck in his snake like grip. The dirt on her hands smudged on his shirt even further when he swiftly picked he

She scrubbed her hands thoroughly, washing the dirt off and as she did, she couldn't help but remember the list of bacteria that lived in soil. As a fervent student back in school she had mugged up as many microbes in soil as she could. It was the kind of fun no one related to, the nerdy activities she poured herself into to forgo the fact how empty her life truly was. For a moment she forgot that he might still stood behind her probably watching her like a pervert. She discarded the flooding information about tiny microbes at the back of her mind, focusing on task at hand. Satisfied with her cleanliness she grabbed the hanging towels beside her, wrapping one around her body and simultaneously tapping herself dry with other one. Finally turning her body she met with the scene she hadnt expected to see. Unlike her presumption that her husband in his ever so smooth posture still stood near the basin, he was gone, leaving the stick of his apple devoid of its flesh.When did he go? She
STUCK Chapter 39
"You don't want to get pregnant do you?" She had seen it coming. The chance was too lucrative for him to not dig each one of his suspicions out and yet the question made her perplexed. With what audacity was she supposed to say she hated the idea of children. She loathed her own life so much to give birth to another one. The sheer will to be pregnant was downright toxic. Life was a rotting insufferable punishment she had survived because of the sins of her parents. She always looked at being childless as a present to her children for never having to suffer the stupid life. For all that she had learnt so far, her life wasnt lived, it was endured, suffered. She was sure under the rule of her husband if her children at all lived they would nothing less than bear their life than live it. It was too horrible out in the consciousness that she never wanted her unborn children to experience it. She knew she sounded absurd. It was absolutely irrational for someone who hadn't looked at their
STUCK Chapter 40
"Get ready"A voice called out.She absently tossed to the other side, slowly to not add pressure on her bruises. A hand abruptly snatched the blanket off her, making her jolt from slumber."I said get ready"She rubbed her eyes, looking at him as if he had asked her for her kidney.He looked unbothered. Tying his tie with his usual poker face, looking ready to leave for work, as if yesterday hadn't happened, as if life moved on faster for him than anyone else.Her hand still itched from the red marks of his tight rope, reminding her that time was working just fine for her."Where" she whispered that came out muffled by her wretched throat.He looked at her through the mirror, raising his brow.She immediately understood questions weren't in order. She hadn't particularly been very good to earn that right yet.Covering herself with the blanket she made her way to the bathroom, stumbling as she did so, understanding that her balance today wasn't supposed to be trusted too...She found
STUCK Chapter 41
After three days of spending time in his office she started bringing her own stuff. Ploping her laptop in front, she worked as he screamed into phones and god knows what muttered to his goons. She realised, inside the four walls of office he was extremely workaholic. She hardly ever saw him relaxed and chatting with his people. He would be either clenching his teeth because someone didn't follow his order or carry his stoic face around the table where he worked for hours.This was probably the only time where she truly got to see how he worked. Italians bustled in his office and listened to him as if he read Bible. She was sure probably they all took his words on their hearts too, listening and following intently.She liked seeing people blabbering in foreign language, probably discussing crime and planning it. Although what she didn't like was one particular man that had ever so tauntingly drilled fear in her heart.She'd see Dominic, under the secure protection of her husband or not
