After forcing my cries to a halt and not break in front of him, I walked out of the bathroom. I changed into my nightwear. I leaned on the wall and thought about sleeping on the bed. But, his harsh words are echoing in my head making me tremble in dread. Why is he like this? Why can't he accept me? Why is he pushing me away in the first place? I just want to run away from all this tribulation and live in my delusions so that I can find solace in that. Otherwise, there's no source of consolation and content for me.

My thoughts were interrupted when Desmond opened the door. He glared at me, making me stiff. I looked away angrily, closing my arms at my chest. He went to the bathroom. After a while, he came out with a trouser and a casual shirt. Without sparing a glance at me he laid on the bed,

"Are you gonna come? Or you're gonna sleep in the corner like yesterday?" He mocked. "Why do you even care?" I muttered. "Why am I offering?" He said without looking at me.
"Oh, A shred of humanity. Thank you, Mr Corte." I taunted and rolled my eyes off him and laid down before I could shift myself to the farthest corner from him, He held my wrists and flipped over me. He was on top of me. My face turned red. My Sapphire Gems looked into his Intimidating Grey ones. He smirked as my heart stopped for a second when he did so.

"G-Get A-away," I stuttered.
"And if I don't?" He smirked. I looked at him and narrowed my eyes, "If there's nothing emotional between us, nothing physical will happen as well. Get away!" I said, trying to push him away but his one glare to shut me was enough to stop struggling but I won't let him do anything. His eyes roamed my embarrassing form which trembled due to the closeness. His eyes are filled with thirst. I wanted him to get away but I couldn't, his presence was enough to shut me out. I don't want it.

"Looks like your petite form can't even fulfill my lust." He spat at me exasperated and got away from me. I gasped when I heard it, "You are the one who touched me first." I said.

"You are so... undesirable in every way." He mumbled. "Then don't you dare to touch me ever again." I quickly shifted to my side and covered myself with the blanket. Just how many times he's gonna ridicule me in just one day? I let out heavy breaths to put myself serene and tried to sleep. After struggling for a while, I finally fell asleep.

I woke up. I smiled to myself and stretched as I let out a yawn. A new day brings new hope or I thought so. I realized that I am not lying here alone. I looked at my side and saw Desmond. He was still sleeping. I looked at his beautiful features. I wish I could run my fingers through his Raven hairs. Oh Well! I believe one day I Will. I smiled to myself when I looked at him. His eyebrows are thick as well as his lips. His beard perfectly matches his features.

He is a handsome devil.

Averting my gaze from him, I got out of bed and freshened. I will try my best not to be scared. A smile can win every heart. I just have to smile.

I smiled when I walked out of the bathroom. I saw him sitting on the bed. He runs his finger through his hairs.

"Good Morning!"I smiled as I cheerfully greeted him. He looked at me with his sleepy eyes.

"Being so cheerful in the morning?"He said, yawning. His every reflex made him look exquisite.

"A new day brings new hope!"I beamed. But, my happiness trampled when he smirked at me and said,

"Let's see how long that will remain." Mine smiled and faded when he said that. When I was about to force a smile his deep commanding voice startled me,

"Come here."It's just morning and he's ready to show his dominance. I walked towards him.

"Sit" He motioned me to sit on the ground. "I won't." I said in a croaked voice. "Shall I make you?" He whispered as I sat on the ground and looked away. I felt like all the hope that awakened within me faded away. I felt his superior gaze at me. His deadly glare was showing that I am Inferior and He's Superior. He held my chin to make me look at him.
