In the afternoon, Brianna wore a thin strapped, knee-length floral dress. She concealed all the purple marks on her body with concealer. Nobody could tell she was the woman dragged inside the house by her husband. But her once dreamy and gleaming eyes lack the spark. Her eyes were screaming- trying to communicate. They wanted the whole world to hear what Brianna was going through. "Bri, you almost gave me a heart attack. I thought brother did something to you. This was the only possibility I could think of." When Selene saw Brianna walking down the stairs, she jumped on Brianna and started to complain. "Why would you think like that about your brother? He is good to me." Brianna tilted her head where Satan was standing and said with a smile. For Selene and Christopher, her smile was blissful, but Satan could see the mockery behind her smile. "Of course, I have to be good, after you are my only wife." Satan side-hugged Brianna and squeezed the little flesh on her back. "Brother, che

Selene and Christopher returned to their apartment after having dinner with Satan and Brianna. During the drive to home, Selene remained deep in thought."Come on, Sele. You are still thinking about your friend. You have met her and she is doing great." Christopher noticed the subtle look on Selene's face and couldn't help sighing."Something is not right. She was not the same as before, Chris. You know how Brianna was before her marriage. But she looks lost and her eyes were lifeless." "Nothing is wrong with Brianna. She is happy. Your worries are baseless." Christopher tried to lessen Selene's worries. He was a man and could guess the gestures of the other man. "I wish her to be happy." Selene took in a deep breath and tried to think positively.
After returning from Satan's home, Christopher had a hunch about what was happening. He somehow calmed Selene and made her believe in his words. But if Selene could notice, he too could. The way Satan's side hugged Brianna with a sudden force and fearful eyes of Brianna was seen by him. Christopher thought for a while and decided to talk one-on-one with Satan. With this thought in mind, he walked to the balcony and dialled Satan's number. "Hmm." Satan picked up the call after two rings and hummed."Man, you are forcing your wife. Satan, she is your woman, and you need to respect her." Christopher was not someone who beat around the bush."So, my little lamb told Selene. " Satan laughed out loud- thundering laughter."Guess what? I have to teach her a good lesson." With that said, Satan cut the call.Christopher looked at the blank screen with tensed brows.*******Lovelies,I will return in a while. Stay tuned!
With a thin shawl draped on her shoulders, Brianna took stumbling steps on the sand. She did not want to see her beast of a husband, so she went to take a walk on the indoor beach. Selene was her last hope, and she had given her a hint to protect her. She was waiting for a single ray of sunshine to come and light her world like before."I have heard that people walk on the beach alone when they miss someone beloved to them. Are you reminiscing about your former lover?" Satan appeared out of the blue, destroying her peaceful time and taunting her. Well, what he said, was not the truth. "I was never in a relationship before." Brianna continued walking without sparing a single glance at Satan. She was aware if she continued, he would end up harming her, which was the last thing she wanted. "Oh? Then who was the boy you were laughing heartily?" Satan inquired with his arms crossed. The sinister power around him increased."He was just a small-time delivery boy. I don't understand why yo
Living each second of her life with a man who could harm her anytime was not easy for Brianna. With all the insults and beating, Brianna spends half a month with Satan. Most of the day, she would hide in her room, afraid she might wake the sleeping demon."Mistress, Mister is waiting for you in his study room." Jule knocked at the door and informed Brianna from outside the door. No one was allowed to enter her room except for the predator- Satan."Ok." The plump Brianna was long lost and replaced with a thin, pale, lifeless body. She was like a robot acting on its master's orders. She dragged herself to the study room and walked in with heavy steps. The day Satan warned her to feed her to sharks was edged in her brain. That day had deeply traumatized her."What is it now?" Brianna stood in front of him without any expression. She had finally resigned to her fate, and Satan was now her god who wrote her pathetic fate. "Jule told me you never leave your room? Is this a part of your ne
"Mrs Satan needs extra rest. She is mentally exhausted, and now that another life is growing inside her, she needs to be extra careful." The words of the doctor lightly fell into Brianna's ears. Her thick eyelashes trembled, and her eyelids slowly moved upwards. The bright light from the room caused her to frown and shut them tightly before re-opening them gradually. "Mistress, are you feeling ok? Are you hurt?" Jule scurried near Brianna and held her hand with tears of joy in her wrinkled eyes. "How many weeks?" Brianna ignored the crying Jule and directed her question to the doctor. "2 weeks, Mrs Satan." The doctor replied respectfully and stood in a corner, waiting for further instructions,"Where is he?" This time Brianna looked at Jule. "Mister is nowhere in the home. I have tried to contact his assistant, but he is also unaware." Jule awkwardly smiled. She was well aware that a woman needs her husband the most at a time like this. "No need to inform him. If anyone of you da
As per the instructions, Jule and the doctor sealed their lips, afraid of the repressing aura of Brianna. Jule was one of the loyal workers of Satan's father. Although she was well aware of the dark things happening in the mansion, she did not utter a single word or go against him. This was why she was alive till now, even after her friends were massacred before her eyes in the name of educating their loyal servants. Now that she was keeping a secret from her Master, her mental state started to collapse. The fear of Satan finding out the truth and disposing of her made her restless. She racked her old brain to find a way to send Satan to Brianna's room. Alas! Right after her thoughts ended, Satan walked in through the front door with an ugly expression on his devilish face. "Master, you need to have a look at Mistress. Yesterday she fainted outside your study room, and you were out of reach."Jule could not disobey Brianna, but she could tell Satan about Brianna's health. Isn't that o
Emma stood on the balcony with a serene smile on her slightly wrinkled face. The man beside her handed her a cup of warm coffee."Thanks, Emma. If not for you, I would have been dead by now." Fiasca stood beside Emma as both reminisced. "Don't thank me, Fiasca. You are a good man. That's why God helped you." Emma shook her head slightly."You always have your way with words." Fiasca laughed out loud."I am a businesswoman, after all." Emma shrugged her shoulder's as if it was nothing."Yeah, the iron lady." Fiasca grumbled in disdain. ****************Short poetry for my lovely readers:It is an ancient Mariner,And he stoppeth one of three.'By thy long grey beard and glittering eye,Now wherefore stopp'st thou me?The Bridegroom's doors are opened wide,And I am next of kin;The guests are met, the feast is set:May'st hear the merry din.'He holds him with his skinny hand,'There was a ship,' quoth he.'Hold off! unhand me, grey-beard loon!'Eftsoons his hand dropt he.He holds h
Satan remained in coma for two days. When he opened his eyes, he saw the figure of a petite woman laying beside him. In the darkness his eyes took in the appearance of the woman. Satan slowly darted his eyes towards her belly. With great difficulty, he moved his hand and rubbed it on her stomach. The little woman squirmed under his soft touch and slowly opened her eyes.Brianna's amber eyes met his deep forest eyes. She distanced her body from his and left the bed."I'll call the doctor." Brianna did not dare to look into his eyes."Brianna?" Just as she took a step forward, Satan called out to her. "I am sorry. I know it's too late for me to realize my mistakes, but I am sorry for what I have done to you and our first child. I won't force you to forgive me but please don't leave me. I will change my personality and try to become a good husband and father, so please don't abundant me." This was the first time Satan had begged someone. Brianna too was at a lost."We will see it." This
The news of Satan's accident was kept confidential. Except for a few close people, no one was aware of it. Robert, who was far away in Singapore received the news with a heavy heart. He looked over at Brianna who was talking to her baby with a small smile on her face. Over the past month, other than having nightmares, she was fine. Her body had returned to its original plump shape. Robert did not know how she will perceive the news of Satan's accident. "What are you staring at?" Brianna felt someone's eyes on her and could not help looking up to see who it was. "Brianna, you might have to return to Florida." Robert sighed deeply. There was no other way. She was still Satan's wife and her presence were necessary. "Why? Did Satan threaten you with Rose?" Brianna frowned as she thought of this possibility. "It is because of Satan, but this time he didn't threaten anyone. Brianna, Satan was involved in a deathly accident and right now he is in the operating room. No one knows if he
After hearing Emma's story, Satan staggered out of the house. His body trembled with emotions."Satan." Roy panicked at the sight of him. His face was pale, and sweat was dripping from his forehead. "Move!"Satan snatched the car keys and pushed Roy aside. He entered the car before slamming the door and driving at high speed."Roy, where is brother?" Rose and Emma walked out of the house while catching their breaths. "He left in a hurry. Ms Rose, Satan doesn't seem to be in good condition." Roy frowned as his eyes swept past Emma. It must be something related to his mother. Roy concluded in his heart. "Give him some time. He will be fine." Rose patted Emma's shoulder and wiped the tears from her cheeks."Hmm." Emma nodded, but her heart ached even more for her son. On the other hand, Satan drove at a maximum speed. His mind was a mess, and he did not know where he was going. All he knew was that he wanted to eliminate the suffocating feeling. He felt a hand squeezing his heart. "
In the Calascione Villa, Satan walked to the glass room where he had forced Brianna and assaulted her to no end. Maybe it was the last straw which he broke with his cruel actions."Brother, what are you thinking?" Rose walked from behind with a curious look on her face."Nothing. Let's go." Satan forced a smile and walked past her. Although he didn't say it, Rose understood he was starting to feel guilty. Other than the emotion of revenge and hatred, Satan was oblivious to many beautiful feelings. In the past month, he had changed a lot, and those changes were for the better. It wasn't easy for Rose to see her brother suffering every day. She had spent her days in the house and abandoned her clinic because she wanted Satan to return to his original self - a gentleman."Reeve, we are getting late." Rose heard the distinct yelling of Satan and hurried towards the car. Rose was afraid and excited because it was the day Satan would meet Emma and get the answers to all his silent questio
In a villa in the centre of Julong East, Singapore, Brianna slowly opened her hazed eyes. Her throat felt parched, and her cracked lips hurt a little. She remembered leaving Florida for good. Robert had accompanied her in his private jet, and there she fell asleep. After that, she remembered nothing. "Goodness! Ma'am, you are finally awake. I should inform sir." The housekeeper gleefully ran out of the room. Brianna looked at the middle-aged woman in bewilderment. She tried to lift her body, but there was no strength. She wondered how many hours she had slept. Her amber eyes then turned to the IV drips connected to her hands, and her eyes widened. "Ms Brianna, glad to know you are awake after a month of sleep" Robert did not enter the room. Instead, he leaned on the doorway frame. "A month?" Brianna gasped in horror. Her brain worked faster and concluded that she might be sick or an incurable disease had occurred to her. As if reading her mind, Robert chuckled. He walked to the
It was the second day after Brianna disappeared, but Satan's men failed to track her hideouts. Robert was one of the top researchers and good at removing traces of his tracks. Satan growled as he ran his fingers through the locks of his silky hair. "Master! A woman is here- the same doctor. She is here on Robert's behaviour." Blake scrunched his nose in annoyance when he thought about the sly smirk on the young lady's face."Bring her in." Satan sat with crossed legs on the couch of the living room. His dishevelled appearance did not make him look ugly but added to his sinister charm. "Good morning, Mr Calascione." Rose walked in with her fox-like grin. When her eyes took in Satan's appearance, a light flashed past her blue eyes."Did Robert send you here for therapy?" Satan did not open his eyes. His ears perked at her voice. It was as if he was too familiar with this voice. "Yes, Robert sends me, and no, not for therapy. He wants me to take you to where your mother is." Rose blin
Time ticked quickly, but there wasn't a single news of Brianna. The more time passed, the more Satan started to lose his rationality. His shaky hands crumbled the burnt cigarette in his hands. Red veins covered his eyes like that of Dracula. Anyone could sense that he was on the brink of losing his sanity. "Roy, how is the progress going?" Satan tapped his shaky fingers on his muscular thigh. He was chilling, causing everyone to freeze. "We have recovered the footage. Here!" Roy frowned upon seeing what had occurred. How did that man enter the house without being noticed by any of the bodyguards? If Brianna had gone with him, it would be impossible for them to find her until Robert wanted them to.The around them turned heavier. Satan's subordinates, along with Roy, did not dare to breathe loudly. They were terrified for their lives. Satan watched as Brianna sneaked out of the house and entered the glass room, from where a young man led her to the secret door in the parking lot. He
Humans are greedy and selfish. They love to play with others' life and grasp their life and death in their palms. They become so obsessed with their lunacy that they forget about God's existence. The same was the thing with Satan. He was raised to be a man with high potential and the mindset of setting things according to his will. But now that the person he was holding in his possession had eloped under the nose of his men, Satan lost his rationality."Satan, someone hacked into the system, and we could not find the footage. I've asked Hedger to retrieve the data. He will soon recover it." Roy's anxious voice rang from the earpiece."I want her in my house at any cost." Satan gritted his teeth with pure hatred. He married her and provided her with all the luxuries of this world, yet she dared to leave him - she had fooled him- making him wedlock. If word spreads, he would be the centre of humiliation and mockery. A joke to everyone. He will be left alone in the darkness just like Ter
