CHAPTER 5
"Don't look at me like that Diaz… Ahh correction… I mean Carter!"… Girard aforementioned whilst settling in the front seat beside the driver. He faked a glare towards Kiara by sitting slightly crossed such that his back was resting against the door. He trailed his tongue round the circumference of his teeth staring Kiara continuously.
The situation was funny yet very interesting! There was fear, a slight attitude of being in power by becoming Mrs. Carter (his wife) as well as her confident was modified nevertheless, still there was panic and insecurity in her eyes. "Don't look at him."… Raven made her hide her face in his neck pulling her close. His one hand was around her shoulders pulling her in his safe protection while the other one covering her eyes such that she could avoid seeing his face. Yet, she peeped through the gap between his fingers at his brother's face that was craned in her direction.
That sly foxy smirk, narrowed eyes as that of a criminal, lips pursed together, Girard looked freaking deadly. Not because he was handsome, he was one of a heck handsome guy still, here— he seemed deadly because of his intensifying gaze that pierced through her.
It was always fun for Girard to play with her. She was his favourite pawn. Uhh, not a pawn precisely?— a favourite toy that provided him utility always as and when he wanted. It was as simple as anything he would bother her, scare her— She would end up crying just looking at his face, there was (most of the times) no need to of doing anything to her.
His one glare would be enough.
She was that predictive. Or say innocent! Yess innocent— that she got herself trapped in his billionaire brother's trap that he has been setting for her for months!
Never mind, he kept constantly eyeing her with glint of fun playing on his face with his smirk while there her newly wedded husband, was trying his best to ruin his moment of fun by covering her face. Raven hardly gazed his brother asking him not to bother her any more in turn, he only got to get mournful chuckles as the answer that clearly meant, 'Dude, fuck off!'
A minute later, they were all lost in their own thought process. Just within a night. Her life changed. Their relationship as well as their indifferences were given a name. A sacred pure name of marriage.
There were still many questions she wanted to ask him still did not do the needful, it is just the start.
They have got whole life to discuss on this topic!
She would not have thought this would happen. She was living her as usually boring life by working as an employee for a small-scale company of Texas, living in an apartment that demanded cheap rent with very low voltage bulbs hanging overhead in the kitchen and her small room, eating boring nearby small restaurant's food, wearing recycled clothes that she keeps on sewing every now and then, caring about nothing in life. It was a heck of boring life that anybody could have!
Although she never worried much about her clothes, the uniform was offered by her company, she would not attend any parties, so yeah… It was not a big deal. However, it was yet again like dream come true when she saw her ex boyfriend standing on her doorstep with his signature heart winning smile, after three years.
Not exactly the same old winning smile, it was different. Because he was standing her doorstep who he left behind three years ago after ditching her for another girl.
She was both happy and confused when he proposed her to marry her. Uhh, not in the usual way by sitting on his knee and presenting her a diamond ring but how ever it was, it took away her breaths. She has never expected him to stumble on her doorstep after their break up happened back three years ago…
Flashback…
It was their last year of college. They were going to get it completed, she was happy that she would finally be able to move out of that city Louisiana after a week. For the present, they were actually shopping for the farewell party. "Raven what are you wearing on the party eve!"… She asked, they were sitting in KFC.
On not getting answer promptly, she looked at him from her cold coffee at him who was smiling whilst looking in his phone. "What are you looking at! Show me?"… He quickly put his phone inside the pocket gaping here and there.
"Nothing!"… He replied confusing her.
"I know there is something. Show me no? Please."… She batted her lashes making puppy face. "Don't you love me? Raven… I want to see your phone."… She got up from her place whining like a kid and tried to grasp his phone from his jeans pocket. Raven held her wrist aggressively by standing up, he faced the people around, everyone was amusingly staring them.
Leaving her there, he came out to the parking, huffing in vexation. "Can't you just behave like a normal girl for once?"… As soon as she reached him, he shouted glaring her badly. "Why is it necessary for you to always act like a kid damnjQuery21403772016193891261_1571131743281?"… He kinda pulled his hairs feeling offended.
Her eyes softened, her lips curled up together feeling bad. Kiara played with her fingers looking down on her shoes, it was not her fault actually. She was always like this, little childish, little immature and all the way irking. This is how her father weaned her up. He never taught her to be egoistic, over smart, sassy like other girls.
"Why are you getting angry Raven, I just wanted to see whatever you were smiling at."… She pouted with soft eyes that was instantly avoided by him. It was all love in the beginning, for now— it just frustrated him.
Every guy wishes to have a girl with child like nature but when she depends lot more than necessary on him, it bores him. The same went with him. "Okay I am sorry."… She stepped ahead to hug him alas, he walked backwards folding his hands against his chest. "I said sorry no, now why are you getting angry?"… She grunted cutely that did nothing but fuelled up his frustration.
"It is a waste of time to talk to you Kiara. I don't think you'd ever want change!"… And, he wore his helmet, got on the bike and drove away from there leaving her all puzzled and blank.
On the farewell's eve…
She was waiting on the gate for her partner to come, clad in black simple court gown… She managed to catch everyone's eyes, however the guy, who she badly wished to seduce was nowhere. "What is taking you so long Raven?"… She stomped her foot pressing her upper lip inside her mouth huffing in grouchiness.
The party has started already, she could hear the music as well along with everyone's voice singing along the song, now she was only the one left to go inside. " I swear I will kill you tonight Mr. Carter. You dumb head cre-"… Earlier than her word could complete, her right shoulder felt a tug making her turn around.
"You!"
Tbc...
CHAPTER 6Kiara swigged her saliva gazing at the guy in her front, her expressions were as if she was seeing the world’s worst guy, “What are you doing here in this dark night standing alone on the gate?”… He flirtatiously asked trying to touch her bare shoulder. Left eye as well as ear pierced with metal ring, he ruffled his hairs those seemed to be wet. He was Payton, college’s bad boy!Kiara rolled her eyes moving away from him with clenched jaw, her eyes were red already, having waited till so long she did not know what to do. “Go to hell Payton. Fuck you!”… She showed him her middle finger with a cunning smile making the looks on his face to change from smirking to heck serious.This girl was something to play with, something to taste slowly with ecstasy. Her tongue was sharper than a butcher’s knife. She could kill anyone with her killer be
CHAPTER 7Hurt again!Kiara’s point of view…He opened the door for me. His brother Girard swiftly exited the car and entered in the house leaving us alone. I was happy and felt light hearted to see him not near us any more. His presence was making it difficult for me to breathe. He did not seem the old Girard any more yet his facial expressions were the same. It refreshed my old memories. That was haunting!I lightly breathed a sigh feeling my body relaxing in comfort at his departure. I was so much lost in myself that I totally forgot Raven has been standing there with an open door asking for me to get out, but his voice could not reach me, I was too into my thoughts. When I nervously gaped his face that was slightly getting into the mode of annoyance, he just looked away.This was his way to ignore his frustration toward me.As
CHAPTER 8I was in the room alone. Afternoon’s blazing sun was overhead, Raven has got a call and left for some important meeting immediately. I attempted to ask him what was the matter notwithstanding he only said, “I will tell you everything once I am back, trust me. There are so many things I want to discuss with you.” And left not before giving me a feathery kisson my neck.And guess what, I was alone in the entire bungalow with Girard. I begged him to not go, I was sure his brother would do something to me once Raven will leave. And that was why I locked the door, to be on the safer side I placed a table across the same to take every possible measure to keep him away from me.As for now, I was on the bed in my gown with folded legs, I have had curled my hairs into a bun and washed my face. Wearing make up has always been a concern for me. It bothers me, what if acne and rashes appears on my face if I keep
CHAPTER 9Kiara point of view….My throat went dry, the way his eyes narrowed and glared me, I was almost on the verge of passing out. He is handsome, six pack abs, challenging personality but the thing that makes everyone hate him is his nature. That bully nature. Even today when the old friends or old classmates accidentally stumble by and see him, they sweat only by getting a glimpse of his face.The time really had flown by but his old self still holds that dread that can kill anyone!“I…. I” I fumbled.He slightly bobbed his head allowing me to go further unfortunately, I did not know where to start from. His eyes were enough for me to start sweating!Honestly I was never courageous enough to open my mouth in front of him. He threatened me like the monster of any horror movie with disgusting teeth, long nails and lips
CHAPTER 10A drizzling night!The clouds were slightly drizzling, there was fog covering the area while the dew condensed on the transparent glass of Kiara’s window was slipping down. The atmosphere was good. Perfect one to sit silently near the balcony with a hot cup of coffee and talk.The lights were switched off, only the ceilings lights were turned on that made all the object, show pieces to gleam in its light. Raven was in the wash room changing his clothes. While Kiara stood across the balcony enjoying the beautiful scenery there, many a thoughts struck her mind!The month of October with winters approaching was best. The heater was on, how everything unlike a new couple’s bed, their bed was not decorated with flowers! There were no fragrance candles too. Even he did not make her feel as though they would be having their first night tonight!She let out a sigh leaning on
CHAPTER 11Confession.Raven’s point of view…Her skin was as soft as silk. The more close I held her the more I craved her skin. She has not changed even a bit. She had maintained herself like the old Kiara from college. Everybody hated me, all the guys. They wanted to own her as theirs but I got to mark her with my name.I met her on the college gate for the first time. It was her first day, she was a transfer and the topper of her state who was given the opportunity to study in our esteemed institute. Her first gaze was magical. It was enough to bring someone like me on his knees.She spelled me such that I ended up proposing her.I ravished her skin as much as I can. She never permitted me to go beyond neck kisses that was frustrating, but having her so close— was like a dream come true. Where in the college all the ot
CHAPTER 12Ward-38.The drizzling night was now replaced by foggy night. The room has become seemingly comfortable for the night unless, Kiara turned to her right side. She roamed her palm to feel him beside her but to her surprise the side was empty.She lazily unclasped her lashes rubbing them sluggishly. “Raven!” she yawningly called got his name while in the manner moving around her eyes in the entire room. The white shining flooring has the reflection of all the objects kept in the room. His big fledged room with a massive foyer, a comfy set of peach colored sofas, and the teak wood furniture with white paint complimented the room well.There was floor to ceiling long balcony curtained with shady curtains while the ceilings dim lights made everything clear that there was no one else other than her in the room. Yet to hit her satisfaction level and make an increment in her
CHAPTER 13His outburst!Author’s point of view…It was 7.00 in the morning when Girard and Raven decided to take a leave from the hospital. Billy though could not get relief from his pain but as for now he was sleeping peacefully under the effects of sedatives. Once he was peacefully taken over by the slumber, the appointed officers allowed Raven to only see him through the circular mirror built in the door.His parents, Mr. And Mrs. Carter were sitting next to little boy on the either side on the stools. They were not so old, their physical appearance— pleasing and impressive. While Mr. Hardin Carter was dressed in his suit, there Mrs. Kelly Carter seemed beautiful in her night gown. She was time to time caressing baby Carter’s hair adoring his pallid face. On the contrary, Mr. Carter tiringly sighed, he was in his formal clothes indicating h
