Chapter - 1
Nightmare
And here he was standing right in front of her, her worst nightmare.
Nightmare.
As normal as the word sounds, it's as fearful as it can ever be. They are the part of our daily lives, yet so terrifying that we fear them every night.
But the funny part about nightmares is that we can forget the ones we see at night in our dreams but what about those living nightmares. Those who are always in front of our eyes, breathing the air we breathe, staring at us right in our eyes with oh so disgusting smirk present on their faces and the evil look they give whenever we cross them. One thing that you can't forget....
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE
(PRESENT)
"Wh.... what"
Here he was standing in front of her, her worst nightmare.
" How is that possible - If that's what you are wanting to say BABY ".
He took his predatory steps towards her slowly like a predator trying to kill his prey just by his look, and he was very much successful in his motives. She was shivering from inside just by seeing him.
An evil smirk found its way on his insanely handsome face like lucifer.
'No, ho-how is that even possible.' she mumbled under her breath. 'Calm down lily, don't think too much just pretend you don't know him'.
" What are you doing here? "
" Finally, you got your voice back Baby,
huh? "
He smirked, knowing very well what was going on inside her little head. she may not admit it ever, but he could always see right through her soul. He knew she would say that, when they had met earlier too, she had tried to avoid any conversations longer than a few minutes. That too would be about the recent projects going on in which he was investing.
Of course, if they were in college, she would pretend to not recognize him like their previous encounters in the administration block of St. Xavier University.
ow. she could have avoided any sort of encounter with him but right she couldn't run from him, there is no place for her to run anywhere, anymore and he knows it! so very well.
He is standing right in front her apartment's front door.
"Answer me first! What are you doing here? Why are you here Mr. Blake?"
She questioned him in a stern tone. Not wanting to sound scared, but little did she know, or she already knew, he could see right through her stern façade at how scared she was.
'How did he know where I live? Wait, he can find anything if he wants. EVEN UNICORNS! '
' What am I even thinking! '
Concentrate lily! '
" Mr. Blake?"
He questioned. She was taken aback by his exclamation.
She could hear the warning bells ringing in her ears, she very well knew what he was pointing towards and anger and frustration clear in his voice, but she couldn't go back to square one after where she was standing right now. how could she just give up now when she has already given up so much for her peaceful life.
"Yes sir, how may I help you? "
"Hmm. So, you want to play now huh! Nice try Baby. But we don't have enough time to play now, do we? "
His voice became thick and husky till his last words. Playfulness lacing the threat in his sugar-coated words. He was clearly not in the mood to play hide and seek with her now and she knew it very well.
" What are you saying sir? I didn't quite understand. If you need anything you can ask Mr. Jonas, the director, on the phone. You don't need to involve yourself by coming to college."
She tried to sound confident about her words and actions.
"Or my Home"
She mumbled the last line under her breath so he wouldn't hear her, but to her surprise he heard her clearly, but didn't show it on his face.
With a Blank expression he started to take steps towards her again. Her breath hitched watching him walking towards her. She started to take her steps backward. He entered her apartment and locked the door from inside.
when he turned around and looked at her with his darkened gaze.
She stumbled backwards but soon realized there was no more space left to go back as she searched the dead end. When her back was pressed against the wall.
"Mr.…Mr....B-Bl... Blake?"
She murmured loud but it only came out as a squeal when he placed his right hand just beside her head harshly with force and leaned towards her.
She was shivering under his masculine figure towering over her petite body. She had her gaze down casted towards her legs, not confident if she could meet his eyes without faltering. Her tough façade and confidence slowly withering.
"Mr...."
"Shh …."
She started but was shut by him who placed his index finger on her lips.
But before she can do something or could utter a word, she found him picking her up like she weighed nothing. He turned around and walked out of her apartment complex towards his red Lamborghini parked outside. He threw her inside the car in the passenger's seat and locked the door, while seating himself in driver's seat and drove off.
During this entire process she was too stunned to react to anything. When she came back to her senses, he had already started the car and was speeding his car through the streets of San Francisco.
"MR JASON BLAKE WILLIAMS WHAT IN THE DAMN HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING. WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME."
"Our home baby, back to where you belong....
MRS LILIANA JASON BLAKE"
