Echo’s Pov:
My eyes flinched as the soft skin on the shutter of my eyes felt the bright illumination of the light which compelled me to twitch my brows and open my eyes towards it.
As I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the blue eyes gazing at me with an evil smirk.
“You're up,” the same guy said as he untied the ropes from my hands and then threw the ropes with his full energy to one of the corner of the room.
I was rubbing my wrist which were now sore because of the ropes being tied on my hands for a quite a long time almost two days.
Wasn't I suppose to be dead right now? Wasn't I suppose to be on heaven right now? Why am I still here? I hate being here with him?
I was looking around my body when he roared.
“ For your confirmation you're not dead.Do you think I would give you such an easy death? Do you really think that your last wishes would be
Echo’s Pov:“There is no freedom here. The only freedom you get from here is when you have your death,” he said in a raspy voice which made me scared to death.I gulped down the lump of saliva which was formed in my throat in a really difficult manner.Fear was noticeable on my face and tension covered all of my body. My knees went shaky as he kept on increasing his steps towards me.“I…I…” I had no words to explain to him. What the hell would I explain to him?“You have no explanations?” he said as he held my wrist and flipped me on his shoulders to carry.No...not again. I kept myself on the huge problem one more time. I shouldn't have tried to run away. I really shouldn't have.“No…No… Just leave me alone. I don’t want to be here. I want to go back to my home. Just let me go,” I hit on his back as hard as I could but it was of no use. The more I hit him
Demonte’s Pov:I loathe myself. I loathe myself for touching her unknowingly and trying to comfort her. I didn’t know the sudden change of my emotions when I saw her tears.I didn’t know what happened to me when I saw her pain. What had really happened to me?I thought they would be fake, her tears. They would be fake like the one Gabriella always showed to me but when I saw her eyes why do they felt like that they were hurting since a long time and they were innocent.The more I want to make her guilty of my Gabriella's death the more I feel her pitiful.The situation was rather confusing. What should I exactly do with her?"Fuck," I swore underneath my breath as I strode roughly in the aisle of the mansion.I came back to my comfy room and them plopped on my bed and resting both of my hands under my head, I went into the deep thoughts about her.
Demonte’s Pov:“Hey…,” I patted in her cheeks to wake her up but she didn’t wake up. I felt the sudden coldness on my wrist which was hanging below my body nearly touching the ground.With the sudden coldness I turned my head towards it and saw that it was her petite slender fingers which had turned red and was touching my hands.I quickly picked her hands from the ground and then sensed it.Hell!It was colder than the ice. She was freezing to death.And without even thinking anything I took out the knife that I usually carry along with me always and started to cut off the ropes that I had tied her before.This had happened for the first time in the history of mine. I mean I had never cut the ropes that I have tied to the person myself. It had always been their body parts that I used to cut but never the ropes that I had tie
Demonte's Pov:"I will come back for you my son," my mother said this sentence which almost comforted me for around one whole night. I waited like an innocent little obedient child.But she never came back, she never returned back to me. The five year old me never got to see my mom again.I don't know whether she's alive or whether she was dead. As time passed by, her face became paler and vague to me that I no longer could remember her face.The only belongings that I owned of her was her necklace which was with her and me. My mother said it was one of a kind and it constitute of stars and moon.I had the moon and she had the stars.As our necklace, she was lost among so many stars that I was never able to find her.She left me cliff hanging. She left me alone on the way that I kept on waiting for her in the woods of Chicago, on the cold December night but there were no signs of her returning back.
Demonte’s Pov:I wished to see my wife. Though we were far apart from each other for so many years, still I missed her everyday like the hell. But, I also knew the fact of being me a mafia would make a great difference in her life, like a real and great difference.Finding her address was just in the left click of my hand if I wanted to. I knew her address since she shifted on Chicago from Rome but later she shifted from there. Just to make her safe away from my world, I never tried to approach her.She really did go really far away from me but I thought our heart were still really close to us.But I quite easily got her address.I knocked her door and the when she opened the door the first expression on her face wasn’t the happiness.“Why are you here? Did anybody follow you?”This was her expression when she saw me standing on the door.
Demonte’s Pov:“ Hello Boss! Madam Gabriella is killed,” the voice from the another side hit the senses of mine so hard. For some moments, I couldn’t believe what he was actually saying. I mean it was just the previous day that we had been quarreling with each other. I met her just the previous day. How can something happen so quick?I looked around myself. It was some hotel room. I didn’t even know how did I ended up getting in the hotel room. The only thing I was able to remember was I was in the pub last night and we were being attacked. I was drugged and… and I met some stupid woman in front of the washroom who was completely wasted.I could vaguely remember her face.And, I don’t want to remember as well. She must be the one who had brought me here.There was a sudden knock in the door.“House keeping.”I opened the door for her and then,
Echo’s Pov:I remember that my butt rested on the cold floor which was almost freezing me to the death. Freezing my heart to death and also freezing my heart to coldness.But when I grasped the area below me, it wasn’t the cold floor where I was made a captive.It was warm and cozy. It felt as a dream that I was sleeping on the cozy and warm bed. It had been so many days that I wasn’t able to get a proper sleep.Unconsciousness could never be considered as the sleep after all, not in my perspective.Being a captive in a lion’s den, no not a lion he was more of a jackal like a person. Fraud and cunning!I could never forget how cunningly he had brought me from the hotel. Before I was scared of the death and scared of the pains but after yesterday’s night when I viewed such a deathly night alone in the store room, myself near to the death in every seconds, I started fearing&
Echo’s Pov:“Dimitri… His name is Dimitri,”his husky voice echoed the whole room. I had a sudden flinch because of his voice and more than me the child who was hanging on my body was scared by him.I could feel his intense fear with the grip of his on my body.This monster could be no good that he even scared such a little child. He is really a monster indeed.“You’re scaring a child,” I yelled.I don’t know where did I get that confidence from but I just shouted at him. I mean I literally spoke back at him. This was even a new for me.Maybe because I got to see something worse last night and maybe that night have made me lose the fear of him, fear of him and his relentless warnings to kill me.“You have guts to speak?” he smirked as he came towards the bed.I gulped the saliva on my throat and then, answered,” Yes. I am not scared of you
