DARIEL’S POV:-I went to tell her but I found it extremely hard to do it, like, my words died from within and I had no idea where to start or what to tell her.My own chains restricted me and now when I had words too, I was incapable of releasing me. My fright had stopped me.“Dammit.”Cursing, I was in the hall, pulling my hair in frustration. Making my leg constantly out of disturbance, trying to breath properly but failed. The anxiousness didn’t allow me.“How do I tell you?” My voice broke, trying to gather my fragmented form but it was becoming difficult.And when I was praying for a miracle to happen so it would take me out of this dismay, I heard footsteps. Recognizing them instantly as my beloved, I looked up hastily .“S-Saafia?”Quickly, rising from my seat, my shaky self stared at her mesmerizingly, tilting my head to the side to focus entirely on her.Narrowing her eyes at me, she whispered my name softly, “Dariel.”“Yes-” She slapped me the second I opened my mouth to sp
After Mama left, I was pacing around the sequestered place stressfully. Holding my sides, my sleeves were rolled roughly, opened a few buttons of my shirt with scattered hairs.“Dammit!” Cursing loudly from rage, I punched my car, gritting my teeth from utter dismay and consternation.We were stuck in a horrible situation. I didn’t know what to do, my mind had ceased to function and I was left with no choice but to call my most trusted man.“Ian?”“Yes, Sir?” He yawned, probably sleeping as it was midnight.Taking rapid breaths, I endeavored to regain my sensations and called him desperately, “I need your help. I will send you my location. Come here.”“At this hour? O-Okay.”Panicking at my sudden call and my shaky voice, he got worried too and dashed to my side as soon as possible. Afraid, anxious, when he came, I vaguely told him, pointing at the blood on my car.“What have you done, Boss?!” He gasped in disbelief, inspecting the condition of my car, clearly indicating that it hit
PRESENT“Your curse worked, Saafia.”With retreating steps, tears glistened in my eyes while shaking my head in anguish with a crushing weight on my chest. Saafia had tears in her eyes, realizing how I took the blame to save my family.But my mind was revolving around her words I was unable to fix.“My mother died, my sister left me alone. My wife cheated on me and now I have become the culprit of the woman I love.”Clutching my chest, I displayed my anguish so she could witness how hard it was for me to contain this heartbreak but my life was seriously cursed.“MY HOME WAS RUINED!” Bursting into tears, I yelled my agony. The pain I went through all because my mother destroyed a life and I had to pay for the consequences.Flinching when I raised my voice, she narrowed her eyes in compassion. Covering my eyes with my hands, I fell on my seat, tears recollecting as I sobbed feebly.“Why… Did you remain silent? Why didn’t you tell ‘me’?” She whispered, taking my wrist in her hands and
SAAFIA’S POV:-All the confusion inside me finally vanished, the sting cleared and now I could focus entirely on the man before me, only thinking about our future where nothing but our love would remain.‘What more do we need?’ I thought the next morning when he was sleeping peacefully.My fingers trailed on the side of his face, caressing him lovingly. I was utterly stupefied at his misery, not once I imagined it would affect him ‘that’ much.“I won’t leave you again, my love.” I whispered, trailing my fingers to his pumped shoulders.“Promise?” A smirk crept on his lips, indicating he was awake. Furrowing my brows, I poked his shoulder with my index finger playfully.“Hmm? You were awake?”“Mhm.” He chuckled groggily, nodding before opening his eye-catching silver eyes.“I am just wondering, I didn’t expect you to be that gloomy about my absence.” I exhaled, contemplating the room, not believing how badly it affected him.Seeing that pinched me, I won’t leave him again. Humming, he
JACEY’S POV:-Contemplating everything which had happened till now, the distress inside me flared intensely. Gradually, after seeing Dariel, the realization of them being right… might be right sinking in.Before I could feel guilty about my actions, I went to confront Sam. He was in our room, my heart was pounding, I was afraid to know something I couldn’t bear.But I know, I must talk to him.Entering our room, I saw him talking to his Boss, “Yes, Sir. I understand. I will do that. Okay, Sir.”Frowning, I folded my arms at my chest seriously as he cut the call and turned his attention to me.“Hmm? What?”“I entrusted you with the most important secret of my family only to find out that you told Saafia everything? What the hell are you thinking, Sam!?” Raising my voice, I glared at him, not believing how easily he spread what I made him promise to never tell anyone.“So? What are you going to do about it?”Now I regret sharing our secrets with him.“What is wrong with you, Sam? You w
DARIEL’S POV:-Who knew my life would become this mesmerizing after meeting you?After my meeting, resting my elbow on the table, a never ending smile was lingering on my lips, drowned in the in-depth feeling I hold for my wife.“You sure are smiling.” Ian pointed out, chuckling when he placed the files on the table.“Because I am happy. More than you could imagine.”I chuckled too, failing to keep this glee inside me. I wanted to scream to this world that I had finally greeted my beloved.I Knew that I had found the point I was longing for all my life.“May you always remain like this. You barely had any endearing moments in your life, you deserve all the happiness.” He blessed me sincerely.I smirked, teasing him, “You sure are sounding like a Father.”“I basically watch you grow up. Of course I care for you. You have done so much for your family now you deserve to live the life you always wanted.” He smirked back and no doubt.Amid all my phases of life, he was with me to provide g
Sharing a few talks with Helder and mending our stumbling bonds, I returned to my room where Saafia was holding the bouquet close to her chest, she plucked a rose out and tugged it behind her ears.When my eyes fell on her, my heart skipped a beat, indulging how angelic she was looking in the composure. “What happened? Is everything alright? Why did you make me go inside?” She asked, rising from the bed quickly when I entered with slight worry.“Yeah, everything is alright, vex not. He was asking to place everything behind.” Exhaling, I loosened my tie and took a seat, running my fingers through my hair to wonder why he did this.Or maybe he truly became good? I had no idea.“So what did you say?” “It felt strange, I didn’t expect him to mend bonds but I kept my beautiful wife in my mind and decided to follow what she must have.”Returning a smile, I plucked a few rose petals and threw them at her with a grin. Everything related to her or about her urged me to follow that path.She
SAAFIA’S POVAfter Dariel left for work, I spent my time by using my phone, talking to Sarah, disturbing her during her work and was reading a book to pass my time, humming to myself.I was engrossed in my book until I heard the sound of a yawn. Shit, I forgot Dariel's cousin was here too. He was in his casual trousers and shirt, scattered hair and waved his hand at me. “Hey, Morning.” “Hey.” Smiling faintly, I waved back, getting up. He truly looked scary whenever he was not smiling but no doubt his grin was soothing. “Are you an early riser? I bet Dariel must have left for work.” He asked, ruffling his hair while looking around with his hand in his pockets.“Yes he did. And I was not an early riser but following Dariel’s routine, I became one too.” I smiled sheepishly.“Did he make you?” He questioned, arching an eyebrow with a teasing smirk.I chuckled, shaking my head in denial, “No, I did it sincerely. I love spending the smallest moments with him.”Unaware what happened to m
