Alexander was in his study, working on his laptop. After a few hours, he decided to see Sapphire.
He went to her room but she wasn't there. He walked to the garden, she wasn't there either.
He asked a maid where Sapphire was. She replied she last saw Sapphire going to the library.
Alexander stepped inside his huge library and found Sapphire was reading a book. He went near her and saw her reading a big scientific book.
Sensing his presence, Sapphire looked at him. Alexander smiled at her but she didn't return it.
"Do you like reading? I never knew you were fond of scientific books." He tried to start a conversation.
Sapphire sighed but didn't reply instantly. It reminded her how much she liked to read scientific books. She was admitted into microbiology. But after Alexander took her forcefully, everything was over. Her dream of becoming a scientist was over too.
"It is alright. Go freshen up; I want to tell you something." Sapphire said to Alexander. "What do you want to say? Tell me now." He spoke. "No. First, go and freshen up." Sapphire suggested. "Okay, then come to my study after half an hour. I will be there." Alexander turned and left. Sapphire's POV:I wanted to ask him about when he would let me go. I couldn't stay here forever like a prisoner. I had a life of my own. He had to listen to me. I would make him listen to me. I had lost myself staying here; I wanted to get myself back. About an hour later I went to his study. I knocked but he didn't respond. I opened the door and what I saw scared me to the core. My eyes widened in shock, I was shaking. My knees felt weak and suddenly my throat went dry. Alexander was standing, holding a gun. Body of one person was lying on the floor. He shot another person in hi
Alexander's POV:Why did you spoil every possibility of love between us? I can't pull you near me even if I try, my memories recall those incidents. You have killed me and all my abilities to love someone in my life. You have scarred my mind and soul forever. When I listened to her saying those words, I felt like killing myself. My heart clenched painfully. Never in my life, had I regretted any of my doings, whether right or wrong. But what I had done to my angel was not only unforgivable; it was too painful for her. I was ashamed of myself. Even after many months, she couldn't get out of that incident. I was the worst kind of human being. How could I do that to her, my angel? If I could reverse the time, I would go back and start everything between us over. Which is never possible in reality. But I will change the reality with my love. If she hates me, then I will love her so much, so much that her hatred will t
He took her to his room and laid her on his bed. She fell asleep out of exhaustion and stress. Alexander sat beside her, observing her. Her tear-stained face, disheveled hair, dark circles under eyes were a clear indication that she was in pain inside. His heart painfully clenched at the thought of when she asked him to kill her. Living was way too painful for her. I know I am selfish, but I am in love. I can do everything for you; even die for you but I am not letting you go. I corrupted you and I will heal you. I have snatched your life but I will give everything back to you. He vowed. He took her hand and kissed her knuckles and then kissed her forehead. Just a mere touch of her smooth skin against his lip made him hungrier, wanting for more but he controlled himself. He quickly made leave from there. He entered the bathroom, took a shower and came out. He
Third Person's POV:She looked at him but didn't say anything. She weakly shook her head in negative and looked at another direction from Alexander. He cupped her face and softly made her look at him. "What's the matter? Tell me, angel." He told her. "Nothing at all. I am happy, really." She said, trying to smile but couldn't. Her smile didn't reach her eyes, she failed utterly. "I am happy." She whispered, a lone tear slipped from her eyes. Then it hit him that something was definitely wrong with her. He crinkled his eyebrows. He felt puzzled, why she was crying. Wasn't she a bit happy?! He wondered. "What's wrong, baby? Why are you crying then?" He softly asked, cupping her face, rubbing her shoulder. The sobs she was holding back, she burst into them. "Because, I miss him so much, badly. It hurts so much
Sapphire's POV:I felt so bored. I had nothing particular to do. I just got up, ate foods, pooped and slept and again repeated the damn process. I meant now it's too much. I was a girl who just turned 21; I wanted to do many things. Not just to sit and eat while caged in a mansion. Maids also didn't talk to me very much without necessity. Sometimes I felt suffocated, always alone. I got up and reached downstairs to have my breakfast. Alexander was gone early. He didn't even tell me yesterday. He was a selfish man. Really a selfish man. He wanted to have me all to himself, isolating me from the world. Couldn't he understand that I too felt bad, I too felt alone? Or God, is it you who always want to me stay alone? I wanted to talk to somebody. I had my breakfast and decided to peep inside the kitchen.
"Can't we stay here overnight? It's so beautiful." I whined Alexander chuckled. "If you really like this place, we can come here again. But not tonight. We don't have food or clothes." He told me. Pouting I returned with him. I didn't bother him anymore. He was busy with the laptop doing his works. I went to Twity and played with him. He was such a good dog. If I patted him, he would lick my hand. The next day, Alexander told me that someone important to me would come. He didn't say much and went to work quickly kissing me. I asked him but he just winked. I was reading a book about bacteria in the library when a maid came and told me that I had a guest. I went to the living room to see who could be this important guest. I didn't have any idea at all. I saw a girl was observing the rare wall paintings turning her back.
He was handsome in a blue suit but not as much as Alexander. "I am not alone here. My date is waiting for me. Excuse me then." I said awkwardly; didn't want to initiate any conversation. "You are in a hurry. He may wait a bit. How about we get to know each other? I am Ivan Morisson by the way." He suddenly pulled my wrist. Awkward man! "I am Sapphire Atkinson." I flatly said. I heard the announcement for dance was made and soon couples would be pairing up for the dance. "Let me have the pleasure to dance with you for once." He said pulling me towards the dance floor. "Mr. Morisson! I don't think it's a good idea. My date is waiting for me and I want to dance with him. Now excuse me." I dismissed him and about to walk that's when he again pulled me but harshly this time. I gasped in surprise. "I wasn't asking." His voice seemed commanding. "J
Sapphire's POV:I woke up and my head was pounding. With a groggy feeling, I opened my eyes and was welcome by the sunlight. I was covered by a blanket and was wearing a big white shirt and my black lacey underwear. I must be really drunk yesterday night. Whoever changed my dress! Alexander gave the maids the night off. And why the hell am I in his shirt?! Don't tell me that yesterday I had done it with him. I quickly touched between my legs over my panty. No, nothing was wrong. I wasn't sore or in pain. Then why the hell I am in his shirt?! I was tensed and embarrassed. I covered my body with the blanket more tightly and buried my face in my knees, thinking deep. "Nothing happened yesterday night." A deep sexy voice spoke up. I jumped in shock. It was Alexander.
