Chapter 10

LYRA POV.

I heard a ruffling sound of papers. I opened my eyes to see a man sitting on the same chair where I received the messages earlier. He kept on crushing the paper and then threw it on the dustbin then again crushed the paper and threw it in the dustbin.

It was so annoying. Oh gosh I wish to stuff that papers in his mouth and tie his hands with his shoelace and teach him a lesson. He definitely should be one of those men who are keeping an eye on me.

I threw the duvet with my legs which flew and landed on the other side and got down from the bed. He was too much into papers that he didn't hear him. This is what I thought. I was feeling a lot energetic now or maybe because I was going to do something mischievous.

I giggled internally so he would not hear me. Doing things like this always excites me. It felt good and it gave me peace, sometimes just too much peace.

I tiptoed and picked the paper which was near the bed and walked behind him. Now I thought to stuff this paper in his mouth. I would turn the chair and fastly put this inside. It sounds ridiculous but it will work.

I was about to put my right hand on the left handle of the chair when suddenly he stopped my hand and stood up from the chair.

God!!! You truly spend too much time shaping him. He was so beautiful. His eyes were darker shades of silver. His body Dammm! His hair was a lighter shade of brown. He looked so good that I thought about dropping the plan.

The aura coming from him made me feel small. He was quite huge like a…

"Bear" It slipped out from my mouth. Wrong time Lyra because I think he heard me. I wish we could eat our words. He kept looking at me and I was stupid enough to smile at him. He too returned with a smile. He was not scary compared to his size. He was gentle.

Stop it.. control me someone. At this rate I won't be able to escape.

"Finally you are awake. You need to get something inside your system" He said and I smiled again. Stupid.

"I don't have a system " It slipped again. I covered my mouth with my hands.

Slowly he picked me up in his arms and I think I melted. His hands engulfed me and I felt like a kid. He started walking out and I didn't complain.

Like before there were two men standing outside the door. Watchers. I low-key made eye contact with one of them and he quickly turned his head. I wasn't going to beat him, his behaviour was unusual.

In this huge house there were already less people so as we were descending one could hear his foot loud sound. I became conscious when he was on the last step of the stairs. There were sex ladies already waiting for us near the stairs.

Put me down, I whispered to myself. You need to say it louder you dumb head. When there is time to tell him I'm whispering to myself.

"Put me down," I slowly said to him.

"I don't intend to do so" He said, maintaining a straight face. His words were so captivating. I felt tickling inside my stomach.

"Put down please, Everyone will think I'm a kid who can't walk" I mumbled near his ear. He laughed like literally laughed. And exactly the same happened everyone Started staring at him first and then to me.

They were terrified seeing this man and shocked seeing me. It was the huge hall which was connected to a hallway.

We entered a hallway and at the end of it there was a similar room with which you can go down.

Now that no one was here. I tried to jump out from his arms but he was holding me a little too tightly.

"I told you, I don't intend to let you go" He said in a mischievous voice.

"But this is wrong," I said to him. He pressed the numbers which I already knew and then stepped inside.

"Nothing is wrong until you deny it with your heart" He said with confidence. Like he knew what was going inside my head. Am I this obvious!

Ding*

The door opened and I hid my face in his chest. Wow, he smell so good. There was just too many men standing for our welcome.

"Boss" One of them came from the side and spoke to him about something in their language. Now it was clear they were purposely talking in different languages so I won't understand them.

He started walking again. I knew he was not going to put me down so I Started pinching him.

I pinched his arms. Bamm he was muscular and his muscles were hard but I didn't stop. I continued pinching.

Finally he put me down and made me sit on the chair. It was a dining area. These people were so rich everything was so customised and fancy. If I get a chance then I will definitely take something as a souvenir from this house and then sell it.

Two maids from inside came holding a big bowl of water in it. They placed each bowl before us and then dropped a tiny ball inside it and slowly bubbles came out of it.

I was flushed seeing this and then I was made to dip my hands in it. After that they took the bowl away and I was concerned for my soppy hands. I thought to wipe them in my clothes when the maids came with another set of bowls.

I dipped my hands and washed my hands. Slowly food started arriving. The dishes kept on coming and the aroma was so tasty that my stomach growled.

"Please let no one hear.." Was I loud?

"I promise no one heard Anything" I did it again. He said, his eyes fixed on his phone. What is wrong with me? I guess maybe I'm hungry that's why.

They served me food. It looked so delicious. I took the first bite with my spoon and it tasted so heavenly.

"It's so delicious" I chirped happily. I was giving her a compliment for the food but she didn't respond. Instead she walked out without even giving me a glance.

It shouldn't bother me but it hurted me when she didn't even glance at me.

"Don't think about her she can't hear " He said sharply. I didn't reply to him and continued with the food. He was a stranger to me, not only him but all these people were strangers to me. Still having dinner with him felt normal.

There was still so much to eat but I was done so I pushed my plate. He had been understanding the action so far so I knew he would understand this time as well. I was going to get up.

"Want to go for a walk?" He asked, he was almost done with the food. This was the time I could find the exit…Yesss!!!

"Yes! I would love to" I almost shouted the Yes part to which he smiled. I stood from the chair and ran towards the edge of the table.

I narrowed my eyes towards him. Try picking me up this time, I will bite you. He came to my side but didn't pick me up. He walked before me and then I followed behind him.

He was really tall. Double my size. Even his feets were huge. His one steps were my two step. It was a little bit of walking and then finally we were out. I tagged behind him.

From outside, the house looked complete palace. It's lifestyle spoke otherwise, these people were loaded with wealth. There were so many flowers planted.

Just like their house their garden also was huge and beautiful. He didn't say a word and I too reminded quite. It was good that way.

Again' people where watching us. It wasn't weird for him. He was least affected by that but for me it was though they won't make eye contact. Still it felt wierd to be watched.

"Do you want to swing?" He turned back and asked, I looked at me then he pointed his finger towards the swing. It's rope had flowers around it.

We reached near the swing and I couldn't hold myself. I ran before him and sat on it.

"You are going to push the swing" I don't know from where the confidence came but I commanded Bear and he followed without a word. He pushed the swing lightly. The air was fresh, it rained yesterday so the mud was a little wet.

He pushed again and again but still I wasn't satisfied. He wasn't applying too much force, it was just light.

"I'm done." I said and he slowed the swing. He was about to walk out but I stopped him. He worked hard so he too should enjoy the swing.

"Come, I will push you this time" I said and he looked at me amused. I patted the seat of the swing. He looked at me and nodded his head in No.

".......Ok, fine I will sit on it" After a few seconds he agreed I didn't do anything, just stared at him a little.

I pushed the swing. He is heavy. I tried to push him a little bit higher. Nope he weighs like stone.

"Alright, It's enough for today" He said getting up from the chair.

For the very first time. I felt free. I felt alive.

"Did you like it?" He asked.

"Yes…" I don't think that was the word to describe this feeling. I loved it. Some changes are meant to be Good, I guess.
