Chapter 51: An Shocking AnnouncementThe cracking sound of bullets was roaring throughout the church along with the reloading of the guns. I pulled out my gun, tucked it in my belt, and took shelter behind the wall as soon as I composed myself. The half of the platform I was standing on was destroyed. Good, it means I am their target, not the rest of my family. ‘James’s men allowed them through the gates.’ Terance’s voice boomed in my air. I peeped out. Father and Marc were already holding machine guns hidden behind their chairs. They were in form and took down a few advancing men simultaneously. Nicole was protecting Alex from a distance. She was hidden behind the counter. I aimed at a man dashing towards them from a corner. A rain of bullets was showering all over. They wiped out the dripping blood from my temples and came out of the shelter, getting better access to kill them. 

Chapter 53: A MarriageI was watching his changed behaviour. He casually said, lets get married while the dead body of his lover was laying in the same holy church, which he turned into battle field. His grip over my waist tightened, hitching my air supply. Thick crimson blood was dripping from his forehead and entered his eyes, turning it redder than it was, making it resembles with the devil.  His flaring air fanning over my face when I lifted my hand to check his wound. However, he was. Still my heart longed for him, his wounds bothers my soul, shaking to its last sanity. But he griped my wrist and pulled me with him.  My body trembled, realising where he was heading towards the small stage in front of a blood bathed cross. I held his hand with my other hand, struggling to get free from him.  “NOOO, ARIUS. STOP.” Tears rolled down

  Chapter 55: Understanding You   I looked out of the window. The dark forest which used to remind of the depth of my love for him, now reminding how dangerous it can be to be fallen in love. My body shivered as he traced my arms before caging me in his embrace and peppered a few kisses on my neck.    I wanted him to understand what he had done, but my empty heart couldn’t feel anything. His deed didn’t subside my love for him. I wasn’t able to dislike this man.   “Don’t be such a silent wife, just name it. I will do whatever to smile at you again.” A teardrop slipped unknowingly at his words. He tinted the holy church, killed his bride in front of the cross, forced me to marry him. Was he who coaxing me?    “El, it’s me.” I looked at the sound source. Alex was standing behind me, and Arius was nowhere to be seen. Her presence broke my patience, and I ran

Chapter 57: The Crushing Down Reality A flash of icy cold water on my skin jerked me up into reality. I coughed a few times, trying to snatch some air to breathe. My headache was as if someone was pounding a hammer mercilessly with great effort. I lay on the dirty floor, and my hands were tightly bound over my back. Flashes of what happened back in the changing room crossed my mind, passing the chilies over my already shivering body.  An arrogant smirk made me look up at the tall and muscular figure. He was standing under the dandling light on a corner that wasn’t capable of lighting the entire room. The manic calmness over his face clutched my heart. Composing myself, I lay over the wall to support my weight.  “Who are you?” He straightened his head and kept staring at me with a dangerously curious gaze. I looked a

Chapter 59: Revealing The Piece of The HeartMy lips were quivering, and I couldn’t comprehend what I should do. The dripping blood from the knife suffocated me as if it was yelling at me I murdered that man. Breathing while my blood-drenched hands shook violently. Arius ran hurriedly over to me with his worried face and glanced back at his dead body of Dante. He held my trembling hands and threw the knife away, filling me in his arms tight. My body left the last strength, and I scattered in his embrace. Tears were rolling down my cheeks, yet a word wasn’t daring to break out from me. He cupped my face and made me look at him. His lips were moving, they were saying something to me, and his eyes were roaming all over me. Droplets of tears were sipping from his eyes, and he buried me again in his neck. I let go of everything that was holding me and wrapped my hands around his neck. His steady heart beats of his were the only thing keeping me alive. He made both of us stand up, and h
