Tormenting Her Innocence

Running her feet as fast as possible, she was trying with everything to run away not only from her past, pain, trauma or suffering but from those inhuman people who were monsters in human disguises.

Her breathing was hard. Her legs were hurting. Her throat had dried up completely because she was running for more than hours now. Her golden brown eyes scanned her entire surroundings. People were passing by, minding their own business. The streets were engulfed with different vehicles which were running, honking.

She placed her both hands on her knees and bent her upper body a bit to calm her aggressive breathing. She heaved while trying to search for a public water cooler to quench her thirst, but she found none. 

Turning her head behind, she checked if someone was following her or not. To her relief, it looked like those inhuman people had lost their way to her who were following her.

Exhaling a heavy breath, she crossed the road and walked for a couple of minutes more. She saw a public park and decided to go inside in order to search for water. 

She entered the park where she saw little kids playing, smiling and laughing. A couple was feeding their little daughter ice cream. Her heart clenched. Her eyes watered because she remembered her parents who used to love her like this but after their death, her entire life changed and got filled with nothing except pain and tears.

Rubbing her eyes with the back of her palm, she strode a little more and finally saw a water tank which was situated outside that park's back gate. 

She took her steps and went outside the park through that back gate. Her feet were leading her towards that water tank, but before she could reach there, she heard the roaring scream of a man.

"ZIA….."

She turned her head, and her eyes widened in shock, by witnessing a woman standing in the middle of the road, and a car which was dashing towards her at full speed. That woman looked traumatised with terror.

Without wasting a single moment in thinking, she stormed towards that woman and then pushed that woman away aggressively, but it turned too late for her own self because before she could move herself, that car hit her, causing her to scream out of her lungs, and then her body flew away vigorously.

Every bone in her body clenched in extreme amounts of pain as soon as she fell on the road with a loud thud. Her watery eyes blurred with tears and pain. Her whole body throbbed and then everything blacked out for her with that thought in her head that she had finally lost that one thing which she had…that was her own life.

…………..

"Your life?" A hoarse chuckle resonated against the walls of that room. That girl stiffened in her place, by hearing and watching that 18 year old boy who was sitting on her bed. His long legs were wide apart whereas his arms were resting behind him on the bed.

"Do you think I care about you or your life, Marine?" 

That girl felt offended at his rude words, but she didn't let it show on her face because she knew better than to show him her vexation at that time. 

Ignoring his rude remarks on her, she walked towards him, maintaining her seductive smile on her.

She bowed her upper body towards him, giving him a perfect view of her almost exposed cleavage. She placed her both palms on his sinewy hardened chest and gazed into his pale blue eyes.

"I know you don't, but I do care about you and your life a lot, Zian," 

The corner of his lips tugged upward, hearing her words. He was clearly aware of her feelings for him, but did he care? No, he didn't give a damn about her or anyone else's feelings and emotions, except his parents'. He only cared about his own needs and wants and how he was going to fulfil them….was all that mattered to him.

That girl, Marine, intensely gazed into his eyes and then slipped her eyes down towards his lips. Lust filled her entire body because she still remembered the last time when he pounded inside her like a ruthless beast, and continued to make her scream and moan his name till she didn't almost pass out in exhaustion. 

Her core throbbed in desires just with the mere thought of their last time. She leaned her face closer and tried to kiss him, but suddenly a gasp escaped from her mouth when he grabbed her neck in his big palm and stopped her from touching his lips.

"Don't forget that I believe in using, but I despise getting used, Marine," he uttered, smirking, while tightening her hold around her neck. Fear engulfed her immediately as she felt him almost on the verge of blocking her air. She was aware of his sadistic ways and how cruel kind of sadist he was, just at the mere age of 18.

He harshly pushed her down on the floor and opened his legs more. 

"Suck me off like a good whore which you are, sweetheart," he said while smirking viciously. She felt hurt with that name he addressed her, but she had gotten used to his rude and heartless remarks on her during the past six months.

She kneeled in front of him and got in between his legs. She lifted her hands and leaned them towards his belt. She started opening his belt which made him rest his body on his arms. He threw his head backward and waited for her to start pleasuring him.

She opened his belt and was about to touch his pants buckle when his phone started ringing. Maintaining his stature, he took out his phone from his pocket and saw Leo's, one of his father's men or he could say, his father's second in command, number flashing on his mobile's screen. Now why was he calling and disturbing him? 

Clenching his jaw in annoyance, he picked up the call.

"Hello……..what?"

Marine witnessed his reaction change from annoyed to appalled in a nanosecond. He hurriedly got up on his feet.

"Is mom and dad alright?.....okay, I will be there in 10 minutes," saying that he dashed out of the door, leaving Marine perplexed behind him. She couldn't even dare to stop him or ask him what had happened and just watched him leaving her alone.

……………

The heavy and urgent strides of his feet shattered that thin silence of the hospital. The receptionist told him where he needed to go and Zian finally saw his mother, Zia. She was sitting on one of the benches outside the operation ward and was crying. His uncle, Dylan, was sitting beside her and was trying to comfort her.

"Mum," Zian spoke, making his mother take her head upward and look at him. Zian stormed towards her. Wrapping his palms around his mother's face, he asked her, extremely worried.

"Are you and dad alright? Leo called me and informed me about that accident. You both are fine, right?" 

He watched his mother weakly nodding her head before answering.

"Me and your dad are fine, Zian, but that girl who saved my life today….she is under critical condition. Her operation is still going on," 

Zian felt relieved, knowing his parents were alright. He settled himself beside her on the bench and wiped her teary eyes.

"Everything will be alright, don't cry," he tried to comfort her with his words because he couldn't stand watching her tears.

His mother, Zia, just slowly wagged her head at him. Zian sighed and then his eyes trailed towards his father, Damien, who was talking to one of the doctors.

After getting done with his talking, his father, Damien, turned towards them. Zian saw his father coming towards them. His face had worn a tense reaction.

"What the doctor said about her condition, Damien?" His mother restlessly asked his father. 

Damien witnessed his father sighing before answering.

"He said, they can't say anything till the operation doesn't end. The injuries she has gotten during the accident have caused severe damages to her neck and head," his father informed, causing his mother to close her eyes and lower her head.

"Mr Karlson," 

Zian tilted his head and saw Leo standing behind him. His eyes were fixed on his father.

"Your assumption was right. The accident was pre-planned and Mrs Karlson was its target. Someone wanted to harm Mrs Karlson,"

Zian's jaw clenched whereas his fists tightened.

"Who?" He spat, angrily but then felt his mother holding his arm. He looked at her.

"Zian, go back home. You don't need to stay here," she told him because she was aware of her son's anger issues, and according to her, her son was still not old enough to deal with that kind of stuff. Besides, he really had no necessity to stay there in the hospital.

"But, mum…."

"Your mum is right, Zian," his father, Damien, agreed to his mother.

"Me, your mum, your uncle and Leo are here, so you go back home. You don't have to get in all of this for now," his father uttered, sternly.

"Yes, and stay with your grandparents for tonight," His mother told him. Zian didn't defy both of his parents, even if he was wanting to, and silently left the hospital.

After a couple of days, Zian was living with his grandparents as his parents still had to stay in the hospital during the entire days and nights because that girl who had saved his mother's life, had gone into a coma after her operation. The chances of her survival were very slim as per the doctors, but his parents were not ready to give up on her life because according to his parents, she was in that condition just because of his mother, so how could they give up on her? Well…. Zian didn't agree to this because according to him, nobody pushed that girl in front of that car. She had decided to get in front of it on her own, so how could his parents be responsible for her in that state?

"Where are you going at this time, Zian?" Zian heard his grandmother, Celia Alcazar, asking him. She was his mother's mother. Zian passed her a tiny smile.

"I am going to the hospital to see mum and dad as you know I haven't seen them from the past couple of days, Grandma," 

His grandmother nodded with a gentle smile. His grandparents were also wanting to visit his parents in the hospital, but his mother had told them not to because his grandfather's health was not well, so she told his grandmother to take care of his grandfather.

"Take care and drive carefully as the weather  is turning a little bad now,"

Zian dipped his head in his reply to his grandmother and then left for the hospital.
