‘What am I doing?’

I remained silent and cursed myself for not saying anything. A silence fell upon the table and the cozy environment- which was never formed, was turned into tension.

“Rebecca.. I ..” My grip on my fork and knife tightened.

"...Say something, Ryan." Said Jared.

"Uh…" I trailed off. Rebecca sighed and put her hand over my shoulder and passed me a reassuring smile which sent daggers to me.

"It's okay, I shouldn't have asked. There's no need to prove. " She again handled the situation.

“And beside that fact we are married should be enough for you guys to not ask this question.” And her forbearance broke. Shit.

“Did you guys marry out of fun to ask about ours?” Rebecca snickered, folding her arm.

A silence fell upon the room, she left them speechless.

“See. So don’t ask this question again.” She said assertively.

“Don’t interfere nor try to question our bond because I can do the same with yours and it won’t end well.” She muttered, rolling her eyes off.

    Rebecca POV:-The next day, I woke up and saw Ryan sleeping on the sofa like always. Sleeping with me and magically waking up on the sofa.I don’t know what his problem is. I freshened myself and walked down and prepared breakfast for both of us. I was so wrong to have just a little faith in him, when he wants revenge why will he support me? ‘I have no one by my side, I have to stand all alone.. Like always.’ I don’t know what took over me that I trusted that hateful guy with my virtues. “It’s not like I trust him or expect something from him. Why would he in the first place?” I muttered.But somehow it made my heart clenched when he didn’t speak in my favor.I somehow felt.... heartbroken. I sighed and went to our room and saw him sleeping.I scoffed and called him, “Mr Knight, Wake up.” He didn’t even flinched as I called him loudly,“Mr Knight!” His eyes shot open as he sat up. “What?!” He said, agitated, running his hand in his hair.“Breakfast has been served, if you want

    I swallowed hard and looked around frantically and took a deep breath as I answered his call. “Hello.” I breathe out. “Hi, Rebecca, Are you okay?” His voice was concerned. “I was so worried about you. You cut all your contact, not even a single message.” He continued. “At least tell me if you are okay or not so I can be at peace.” He added. A smile crept upon my lips as I replied, “Yeah, I am okay... You?” “I am also fine… just missing you so I thought that I should ask how you are doing?” “I.. am fine...” I replied vaguely which caused him to question. “Really? Does he treat you right?” No. “You can tell me-” “Jayden…” I closed my eyes as the urge to cry and tell him everything aroused in me. I swallowed hard and after a brief pause I spoke up. “Don’t call me again. I... am a married woman and...” I paused to find words. “My...dignity doesn’t allow me to talk to any other man than him… especially someone to whom.. I am- was attracted.” “But-” I tried to speak firm

    Ryan POV:-"Because you know you are nothing on your own."I sneered at her which caused her to look at me in aversion and intense resentment.“You cannot do anything, you are a nobody at this point.” I whispered temptingly.From what I have heard about her from Marianne, she can even build an empire of her own by herself without any support.“So, what are you going to do?” I asked.Due to some tragedy she lost her will and her skills or else I would be interested to see her at her best.She then narrowed her eyes at me and stood up, "Yeah, I know it. I am nothing but some worthless trash, so throw me out." She spoke her ridiculous words which made me narrow my eyes at her as I pulled away. I leaned on the table and ran my hands in my hair in frustration.“Stop this, Rebecca.” I let out a scowl, infuriated by her absurd words.“This will lead you nowhere.” I turned to look at her, she seemed unaffected which fuelled my anger more. I put my hands on the armrest of the chair as I hisse

    It's been a month of our marriage and after that night, I didn't even try to be intimate with her. We lived our lives ignoring each other. Whenever I try to touch her I don't know but something pulls me back. I still wanted to see her destruction, the day when she'll beg me for forgiveness for destroying my life and not just her but everyone, including you too, Marianne. ‘You shattered my heart, I ‘loved’ you dearly and you just... leave it, all I can do now is to curse all of you.’ It somehow became a routine of mine to be awake by Rebecca. “Mr Knight. Wake up.” She woke up before me and then came after a while to wake me up and then wait for me to get ready as she hung clothes outside the closet for me knowing that I'll never wear the clothes chosen by her but still. “Breakfast is served.” And then I'll walk out in my shirt and pants as she'll help me to wear my coat and then she'll fasten the tie around my neck. “Don’t do it.” I said coldly. “I will do whatever I want

    Rebecca POV:- My chest tightened as my eyes felt heavy, my body ached as I couldn't comprehend my surroundings. “Argh…” I can barely open my eyes, everything is vague, I can't even think properly. “Dammit.” I put my hand over my forehead and rubbed it to receive any solace but no avail. A deep sigh escaped my lips and I can felt tears, blurring my vision, due to this stupid flu. “Mari- Argh.” I sniffed and laid on the bed and covered myself with the duvet. I closed my eyes and instantly fell into a deep slumber. The sleep wasn't sound, it seems like it was out of misery as if I can't sleep but I have to as I have to spare some mercy upon myself and give me some time to recover. Some time passed and it's lunch time, the door knocked, waking me up from my deep slumber. I sat up as a sudden pain went through my veins. I winced in pain and asked tentatively, "Who's there?" "Ma'am It's Jen. Please eat something and take medicine." I just hummed and she entered. “Yeah..” I

    We both are at the loss of words and we know they will only make the matter worse as our silence spoke words which held in-depth emotion but we cannot even understand it and considered them irrelevant. “Close your eyes.. Go to sleep, everything is fine…” He whispered, kissing my neck softly. I felt disgusted at myself, I hated myself for it. I detest myself for liking this solace I am receiving from him. ‘I felt so revolting, how can I feel safe in those arms which desire to embrace my sister?’ How can I feel tranquility and insurance in this hand that tried to defile me? Why after all this his touch made me feel secure? I am so, so disgusted at myself. How can I feel anything for the person who loved my sister? He moved as we both laid down and I slept in his embrace. For the first time, the next morning, I saw him sleeping next to me, holding me close. His breath lingered on my face as my eyes widened. My heart skipped a beat and the heat emerging from him traveled in m

    "I'll send you to Grandma's place. From now on, My wife will prepare every food I desire and according to my liking." My eyes widened when I heard it. "But Sir-" "You are dismissed, Flurry." He said looking away but not before sending a menacing glare in my direction. "Do you want to go, Flurry?" I asked. She looked at me then at Ryan and looked down as she shook her head 'no' hesitantly while tears brimmed in her eyes. "Fine then, I'll prepare your food and she will prepare mine... " I announce. "No one asked you." He said nonchalantly. "I am your wife. We distribute equal rights and she will stay here." I said. "You don't have any rights-" I cut him off by saying. "If you are the Head of the house then I am the Madam of the house, My words matter." I declared and stood up. "Flurry, make porridge for me for lunch and ask him what he wants so that I'll prepare it." I said and left for my room. I plopped myself on the bed, awaiting the devil to come and start an argument

    Ryan POV:-It's midnight and it seems like the bed has lost its comfort and my slumber has been deprived of me. A strange coldness surged in me as I felt… Lonely. No bickering, no mocks, a pitch silence is spread across the room and an empty stomach. “What have I done?” I somehow felt alone because there's no one to snuggle close to me. A numbness took over me as I laid on the bed, frustrated. I put my hand over my face and emit a deep breath. I shouldn't have said that, no matter what, if anything happened to her, it would be my fault. “No, she is okay, she is with her sister.” I tried to reassure myself. But at the same time, some uneasiness and distress lingered in my heart as my heartbeat became faint in dread. “But what if she is not?” I sat up and got out of the bed. I went to the kitchen and thought about calling Rebecca.But after what I told her, I don't think it would be a good idea to talk to her over the phone.“Should I call her?”I looked for something to fill

    My heart was torn to countless pieces. Regret ate me upon seeing her like this. She let out loud sobs as tears also rolled down my cheeks in heartbreak and remorse as Rebecca began to say between the sobs. "Please Ryan.. I beg you. Take everything away from me.. But.. But please.. Don't do this for me.. I.. I can't live without you.. You are my everything.” She cried. “My life.. My breath.. My heartbeat.. My smiles.. My reason to live.. Everything resides in you. Please don't take it away… please don't leave me.. I will do anything. But please.. Don't hate me. Don't leave me…” Her words evoked woeful tears, the realization that my presence is all she needs and I failed to realize this. “You are my hope for tomorrow.. After taking me out from the abyss. Don't leave me there anymore. After becoming my light, don't fade away.. Please, I beg you Ryan. Don't do this to me…" She begged, lowering her head. A loud gasp of sob escaped my lips as I held her hand and kissed them, rele

    Ryan POV:- There is an eerie silence in the house. It doesn't feel like home at all. I missed Rebecca a lot and felt so heartbroken when I couldn't be able to tell her how much I love her and what her worth is; which is greater than any riches of heaven. Even if I try, I can’t tell her how vast my love for her is. A pain inflicted on me and hurt me a lot to see the empty wall as no sound of Rebecca can be heard anywhere. No smiles of hers reached my eyes. I want nothing from God but to bow in front of her. I worship you too. She is present in my very prayer but Dad plus the doctor's words are pushing me in turmoil. I have to let her go because I am

    My eyes slowly opened when a bright light fell upon my face. I blinked a few times to adjust my vision. My heart felt hollow as I felt so weak. I looked around and found myself in Marianne's room. My throat was dry. I shifted and saw Marianne, sleeping on the couch. “Papa…?” I slowly sat up, my head hurt along with an aching pain in my heart. I put my hand over my head and closed my eyes, feeling heartbroken. “Marianne?” The creaking sound of the door made me think that it's Ryan so I quickly shot my head but the one who came was Papa. "Papa." I whispered. "Oh, My child, Finally you are awake." Papa came and patted my head. He sat beside me as I

    Rebecca POV:- My everything came to halt when Ryan told me that we have lost our child. My world came to a crash, my breaths stopped, my mind went blank, my reason to live suddenly began to feel meaningless. “What have I done?” I was willing to bear any pain with a smile but this is something unbearable. It's all my fault, my pathetic decision killed my child. “No, this has to be a lie…” I was on fire, my eyes couldn't see. My body couldn't feel anything but devastation. A deadly ravage roamed in every inch of my core. I was losing my breath. Nothing in this world can be comparable to this heartbreaking pain. I was damaged beyond repair, killed from inside.

    An involuntary smile crept upon my lips when I read it. Getting some motivation on how to love from him. If Jayden loves someone, that person would be lucky. If I didn't give this to Rebecca, I would be unfair. I can feel the pain of his words. I put it in my pocket and went home. My heart skipped a beat as unnerving thoughts stirred my mind. I went home after two days, I hoped Rebecca would be alright. I guess at that time, she must have thought about things… about us. Now Jayden is gone, the only way to find liberation for Rebecca is.. divorce. I shuddered when I thought about it. I swallowed hard and searched for Rebecca. “Where’s Rebecca? I told you to

    "Don't touch me!" I said, holding her arms and pushing her away, unintentionally it was a little hard which caused her to stumble and it tore my heart. How can I be so harsh? "Why are you doing this?!" She shouted, falling on the ground. "I never desired you in the first place, get out of my life." I said looking down at her. Her breath hitched when she heard it. She looked at me with a hint of astonishment. Invoking a ravage inside her, throwing her into an endless pit of turmoil. “W.. What?” She kept looking at me to find any hint of affection but the only thing which was plastered on my face was seriousness which intoxicated her in venom.

    Ryan POV:- I have told so many harsh things to Rebecca, she is hurt. My words are breaking her heart, my whole being is giving her scars. I am doing things to her which I never thought I would. I am deliberately pushing her away and being this cold to her hurt me. I don't want to do it but I have no control over my senses and I am lost in the delusion that she can only be happy if she stays away from me. “Doctor, I complied with your word but… my distances were only hurting her.” I said sadly. “I know, Rebecca told me. Ryan, I know taking the responsibility of an emotionally fragile person is extremely hard. I doubt you could do it.” He sighed. “There is a possibility,

    The next day, I woke up and saw Ryan sleeping beside me. A smile crept upon my lips when I saw him but It was a sad one and the only question on my mind was, 'Why are you refraining yourself, why are you pushing me away?' I closed my eyes and remained like this, not wanting this moment to end and wishing that he doesn't go back to his cold personality again. "Are you awake?" He asked softly, my heart skipped a beat, worried he might not scold me. I nodded and said faintly, "Thank you." He hummed and shifted. We both sat up and I kept smiling at him. No words were exchanged between us as we both got ready and he did what my Father did.

    None of us spoke another word after it as the time passed quickly and I went home even if I didn't want to. "Where were you?" I heard Ryan's strict voice from behind, he was leaning on the wall looking at me direly which made my heart race at his dominance. "Why do you care?" I scoffed, folding my arms. "I am tired of living in that room. I will sleep in my room, come if you want." He said nonchalantly. My eyes widened for a second when I heard it. A shiver went down my spine, I turned to look at him. "Don't leave me, Ryan. Please." I said in a barely audible tone. "I won't stay in that room. Learn how to deal with your fears." He said firmly, which immerse
