David's POV
I'm David King, a famous actor and an arrogant businessman in Hollywood. I have never loved anyone other than my princess Amy. Though the media projects otherwise about my undying love for my ex-wife when we were together, it was nothing but a hoax.
Megan and I were friends with benefits, and we both attended the same school and college. Our parents were family friends. She belonged to the Smith family, who were influential in the business field. Both of us were comfortable with each other, and we were together most of our school and college lives. There was no love between us, but we used each other for our sexual pleasure. We were barely 17 when Megan got pregnant with Amy. As teenagers, we didn't know what to do. We both were confused and didn't want a kid at that time, as it would ruin our futur
David's POVI have been driving aimlessly for the past 2 hours, not knowing how to face my little angel after what I had done to her. I finally stopped the car at a small chapel which I usually visit when I'm upset. I went inside and sat there looking at the crucifixion statue of Jesus. It emphasized the sacrifice of Christ for the redemption of humans. And here I was at his feet seeking redemption selfishly. For I knew that I am a sinner, and I didn't know whether He will forgive my sins or not.I felt something wet on my face and realized that I had been crying. I was surprised because I had never cried for someone, not even for Amy when she was sick. The tears were caused by the very thought of having ruined my little angel. I never imagined that a little girl like her would hold this much power over me. Of
Siya's POV"There was no rape, to begin with, Mr.Addington.It was just rough lovemaking between husband and wife", Mr. King said, smirking at a shocked Ian.I trembled at the sight of my tormentor. He looked like his mighty self...emotionless, unaffected, and spoke those words like nothing really happened ...like he never did anything that should not have happened. I looked at him and his indifferent attitude in fear... Rough lovemaking?... Is this how he planned to hide his crime? How could he be so unsympathetic?... he himself is a father to a girl. How could he behave so mercilessly? Different thoughts clouded my brain. All I wanted right now was for him to leave me alone. But why would he do that? All he wants is to avenge me for his daughter. For him, I'm such a low life who tried to hurt his prec
David's POV"I have made my decision,"Siya told me, disgusted at herself."I will come back with you,"she closed her eyes in pain."But you have to drop the charges against Ian.""Don't worry. I will see to it",I told her, smiling victoriously.I wanted to console her so badly. But I was afraid to fall weak. If I soften, then I'm sure that she will leave me. The doctor came in and gave her sedation which caused
Siya's POV I was discharged a day later in the evening, and David took me back to my prison in his car. I didn't want to be anywhere near this monster. So I sat as far away from him as possible, eventually falling asleep due to the medication's effects.After a while, I felt myself floating in the air. I struggled to open my eyes, and when I finally succeeded, I was shocked to find that David has scooped me up in his arms and was halfway inside his mansion. My body felt disgusted by his touch."Mr.King, What you are doing? Put me down; I can walk", I objected.
Siya's POVThe sun rays fell on my eyes, caressing me and welcoming me back from my deep slumber. My lazy eyes fluttered open and shut again as I snuggled and hid my face onto the warm teddy bear near me. But why was the teddy bear breathing? I opened my eyes with effort and saw a pair of green eyes gazing at me, brimming with tenderness and passion. This is how I have been waking up every day for the past few days. I can't believe that I have been literally sleeping with my tormentor. And to add insult to injury, I tend to cuddle up to him. But strangely, I felt relief from my nightmares with him calming me down every single day. I reminded myself to stop sleeping like a log and start being aware of my surroundings. This was mainly due to the medication I was taking. I got up quickly from the bed, embarrassed, and ran towards the washroom for my morning routine
Siya's POVI had never envisioned in my life that I would be praying for the well-being of the very person who destroyed me. I am doing exactly that right now, sitting in front of the emergency room."Here, have this coffee,"an annoyed voice brought me back to earth. I looked at the person who helped me bring Mr.King to the hospital.FlashbackI was stupefied when Mr.King collapsed in front of me. I did not know what to do. There was no one in the mansion except the security guard. All thanks to Mr.King for giving all of the workers a holiday.
Siya's POV"I think you have Stockholm syndrome,"Ian said with a playful smile."What is Stockholm syndrome?",I asked confused at his statement."It's a disease which makes the victim fall for your tormentor and feels sympathy towards him,"he explained with a professional expression."What the hell...I don't have any syndrome",I
Siya's POVTwo months later It's been two months since David's anaphylaxis attack. Nothing much changed; he was acting weird before, now it changed to more bizarre. After that incident, he started claiming me as his wife, which reminded me of Ian's Stockholm syndrome remark. I honestly doubt that syndrome infected him. I resumed working with Ian and also restarted my online classes. As promised, David did not cage me in, but he started to show some wolfy claim on me, much to my dismay. Whenever I go to Ian's office, he would drop me and pick me up like his favorite job. Although I tried to avoid him, I couldn't as he and Ian had started working together on their next project with Director Brown. S
