Ashes Between Us!

Emerald's POVThunder roared outside the window, which is tinted black and way out of my reach. It tells me that the world is still behind it and I am not alone behind it. How mocking it is that windows are meant to see the world yet this tint snatched that right from me. I have heard the word 'misery' since childhood, but I didn't know that it could be felt to this extent, where you wish for death desperately. I sometimes think about ending this life for once but I don't have that right either. I am stuck, I am ruined. I don't know what my life has for me. Going out and looking at the sun is just a dream now. I don't even remember the last time I took a bath, the dress on my body has started shredding into pieces, and coldness always takes advantage of it; the cold floor doesn't help either. My tongue has forgotten what food tastes like, and I can feel my body becoming just bones.I am living in hell in this basement for uncountable days, maybe weeks or months, I don't know how lon

Author's POV Emerald was still on the ground, rain was pouring on her like it was equally angry as Egon. She didn't mind, misery is a part of life. Egon was watching her from the window, and she was drenched in rain. Water was making a puddle around her, yet she wasn't moving. He also knew that she could hardly move due to her weakness. She wasn't passed out yet, he could see her eyes blinking. She was just silently mourning for her sister's death. He loves to see her like that, but she is no longer screaming after the death of her family member. Looks like all screams died with passing counts. It's not as fun as before, as she has stopped screaming, but that doesn't mean he was going to show mercy on her. He looked at the watch. If he kept her out in the rain for long, then she would die, and he didn't want it. She can't die easily. He is going to make it painful for her. "Should I bring her in?"Spider came and stood behind Egon. Spider wants to touch Emerald just one time, eve

Author's POV Egon saw how her eyes turned viciousness into fear in seconds after his presence, she was terrified. Her eyes turned glossy as fear spread into her veins. A minute before she was ready to pounce on the doctor like a hungry tigress. If Layla hadn't informed him, then he might have found the doctor dead. This is what amuses him, people fear her, her mere presence makes people sweat, yet she trembles at his mere sight. It took so long to achieve this but they are finally there, where he has crushed her courage. He let go of her jaw and extended his hand towards the doctor, still glaring at Emerald. Her breathing quickened when the doctor grabbed the syringe from the floor and placed it in Egon's hand. Emerald stepped back in panic. She didn't understand why they wanted to inject this medicine into her body so badly. Why is it so important that Egon himself has taken the job into his hands? She feared that they were definitely experimenting with something lethal on her.

Author's POV It was a cold night, she stormed out of the castle, her heart was beating so loudly that she felt dizzy and nauseous at the same time, but it was important for her to escape now or else she could never do it. After so long, she has finally got the chance, and this she is not going to have again. If not now then it's never. She ran as fast as she could, cold wind slapped her bare face. Bare feet suffered on the cruel ground, and the newly recovered body was getting punished in the wild. They are on an Island, it's exclusively owned by Egon, and no one is allowed here except him and his people. Emerald was running, but her mind was still thinking about how to escape from the island. She escaped from the castle, but now what? How is she going to get off the island? She struggled in the wild, the trees grew in weird shapes, or you can say that they are forced to grow like that to slow down enemies. The Whole Island is groomed as per royal needs. She got scratched and fel

Author's POV His eyes travelled on her as she hid her face in her knees, and silent sobs shook her body. Someone else would have felt guilty, but not Egon. Not him! Because he has seen to what extent this woman can go. She is not an innocent to have pity on.He sat near her feet and wrapped his hand around her ankle, making her look up in defeat. She didn't protest because it wasn't going to stop him; in fact, it was going to make it difficult for her. Egon saw how she was looking at him with a blank face while he tied heavy metal rings around her ankles to stop her from running, he smirked, knowing that she must be thinking about how to kill him after this humiliation. Her ego would never accept what he is doing to her or whatever he was going to do in future. It's so satisfying to scratch her ego again and again. He looked up at her through his eyelashes. She was looking so innocent while getting bound. Her deep emerald eyes stared curiously at the metal around her feet, probabl
