HIS DARK LOVE

Chapter 7

SITARA POV :

    I just sat in front of the mirror like a broken doll. Am too tired to even cry and also too afraid to make him angry. He showed me an obsessed person in him yesterday.

I didn't mean to cut my wrist but it happened by fault. But he didn't even have given a  chance to explain before brutally whipping me.

After he burnt my hand he carried me to his room . He delicately treated my hand like he was not the person who burnt it.

I have to do something to escape from this obsessed person. His love towards me is so dark that it will cloud me and burn me .

Yesterday, I witnessed his madness. I somehow thought that he is not a normal person but yesterday he gave me a reason to.

In his madness , he killed an innocent. Viraj is dead because of him .

" Not him , you are the reason he died ", my subconscious yelled at me.

I will agree with it. If only I didn't get his help. If only I didn't make Viraj my friend then he must be alive and live his life peacefully with his mother.

" Am Sorry ", I whispered softly. A lone tear escaped my eye followed by many.

" For whom you are sorry , Sugar ", my whole body shivered listening to his voice which I hate the most. My predator , the devil himself is staring at me leaning against the door frame with a smirk. How much I wish to wipe it off his face .

" N...nobody ", As much as I hate to show him my fear , I can't control it in front of him and my stuttering is not even helping me.

" Liar ", he said and took his predatory steps towards me and I stepped back to get away from him but ended as his prey when my back touched the mirror behind me.

He caged me between his hands and the mirror.

" As much as I hate to give you marks other than love bites you leave me with no choice , Love " , he said while leaning close that this closeness is suffocating me.

" S.s..sorry ", I uttered frightening what he will do to me this time.

" It's okay Sugar , I will let it slide this time but don't make this mistake again ", I released a sigh listening to him that he will not punish me again.

He took my wrist softly and took me to the bed . He made me sit in his lap. I don't know how long I can endure him . Why can't he understand? I don't wanna be with him.

He placed his neck in the crook of my neck and inhaled.

" Are you a dog ? ", the words automatically left my mouth before I could stop .

I am afraid of the core that he will get angry at me but to my surprise he laughed.

" No Darling, but your smell is so addictive that I can't control myself not to inhale it ", he answered and continued his sniffing and inhaling.

" S..samrat ".

" Hmm ", he just hummed not even lifting his head. As a signal I just continued.

" Can I go to college on ...t.. tomorrow ", I inquired hesitantly.

" No ", he replied instantly which made my blood boil. I dug my nails into my palm to control my anger and hissed due to pain then only I realised that I hurt my burnt hand in anger .

I looked back only to be met with Samrat's furious eyes .

" S....s...sorry ., I didn't mean it ", i said hoping that he will calm down but it didn't work.

I don't want to go through his punishments again . They are very brutal and sadistic. I have to save myself from him .

I quickly wrapped my hands around his neck and hugged him tightly. I know that any person in my place will not do it but I have left with  no choice.

" please....am...sorry ", i whispered in his ear softly to calm down him.

He didn't say anything and when I was about to break the hug he wrapped his hands around me and hugged back.

I mentally noted that I need to scrub my body thoroughly to remove his touch.

After what felt like an eternity to me he left me. I quickly stood and ran to the couch to maintain some distance. I encouraged myself again and asked him.

" Samrat , am only 17. Please let me study . I will not talk with anyone. I promise. Please".

He is not saying anything and that made my eyes to be filled with fears. The mere thought of my dreams getting shattered is making my heart ache.

He left the room silently without answering me .

After he left , I cried and cried and drifted to sleep.

My sleep got disturbed with a knock on the door. I know that it was not the devil cause he doesn't knock.

" Come in ", I said and a girl of age around 23 entered.

I smiled looking at her but she didn't reciprocated.

She placed the food tray and was about to leave when I stopped her " what id your name?".

She didn't reply and started to walk
away .

" Hey , am asking you only ", before she could answer I heard a reply from the door .

" She is not allowed to talk with you sweetheart".

I looked at the door and found Samrat coming into the room.

" you can leave ", he said to the girl and she ran away immediately.

He sat beside me and took the plate in his hand to feed me.

" Eat fastly Sugar ,I need to change your bandage ", he said and placed the spoon near mouth.

" why she can't talk to me ", I asked.

" Not only her , no one is allowed to talk with you , now eat  ".

He again tried to feed me but I need my answers.

" Why ? ".

" Is if necessary Sugar  cause you are mine , only mine . Now enough of your questions eat silently ".

I pushed the spoon away which made the rice fall down.

" SUGAR", he warned . But me being me didn't took his warning seriously. I grabbed the plate from his hand and thrown it on the floor breaking it into pieces.

"I don't want to eat unless you allow me to study further", I Screamed loud making my lungs hurt.

He stood from his place but befire he can reach me , I ran out of the room.

I can hear his loud steps behind me . I entered another room and locked it from inside. I took some deep breaths until I calmed myself.

" Sugar, open the door ", he ordered while banging on the door.

" No ".

" ok then I will see until when you will hide inside", he said and walked away.

I sat on the bed feeling that am free for today from his hold.

I sigh in relief and drifted to sleep without a thought about the devil outside.

Only if I had known that he is not the person who accepts defeat easily.
