Chapter-1

At Night

Meher's p.o.v

I wrapped the bed sheet around my body. I was naked in front of him but I was not feeling embarrassed because I have given up on my shame 7 months ago when I first stripped in front of him.

7 months ago I used to have everything. I used to have a happy life with my brothers. I was a happy teenager until the great businessman Sehreyar Al-Sheikh entered into my life. He made an 18-year teenager his mistress where he was already a 30-year-old grown-up man. After becoming his mistress my happy life is gone. I have nothing with me anymore. I have given up on my self-respect that day when I agreed to be his mistress.

I am thinking about my miserable life and some whimpers left from my mouth. I felt his scrutinising eyes on me and rested my one palm on my mouth to stop any kind of sound. If I make any kind of sound then he will again insult me saying that I am a born slut and actor. In his opinion, I am just an object to fulfil his desires.

I wish one day he will understand how much I feel disgusted whenever I intimate with him. I wish one day he will understand how much I loath him. I wish one day he will understand how much I want to leave this house.

This house might be the dream of every girl which is full of luxuries. But for me, it's a hell. I detest this house. I detest its owner. I detest myself for living here.

 He is still looking at me raising his one brow. I know what's he telling me to do.

I just got down from the bed and wore my clothes as fast as possible. I left his room without glancing back and returned to my room.

Well, it's one of his rules. He doesn't sleep with me in the same bed nor he gave me any permission to sleep on his bed because I am his mistress. In his opinion Mistresses are only for physical needs.

I came back to my room and took a birth control pill immediately. It's one of his rule that I can never give birth to his baby.

I entered into the washroom to take a shower. I looked at my reflection on the mirror and found a sad girl whose eyes are dead. Once happy and playful Meher is gone now. My body is covered by hickeys which are given by him. His scent is lingering on my whole body.

This time I couldn't control my tears anymore and started sobbing. I turned on the shower and the water is wiping away my tears but they aren't stopping coming out from my eyes. I started rubbing my whole body to get away from his touches and smells. I have become intimate with him uncountable times but still, this thing always disgusted me.

After spending a quite amount of time in the shower I returned to my room wiping my hairs with a towel.

After that, I sat down on the prayer mattress and raised my hands in duaa(prayer).

I said crying," Hey, Allah. Please forgive me for being in a haram(forbidden) relationship. I was helpless. I didn't have any choice. Please, forgive me. You know everything. Please, Allah, save me from this hell. I can't tolerate all this anymore."

" Please, Allah. Make everything alright. Help me and my family to come out from every complicated situation," I said and rested my head on the prayer mattress.

At Morning

Author's p.o.v

Meher woke up from her sleep and ran towards the kitchen to make breakfast. She is doing everything hurriedly and somewhat she is nervous.

She is wearing a pink colour salwar suit and looking very adorable. She has tied her waist-length honey brown colour hair in a bun. She said wiping the sweat beads from her forehead," Please, Allah. Don't wake him up now. I am late. He will be very angry."

" You are late," A deep voice said from behind and the teacup fell from her hand and shattered into tiny pieces.

Slowly she turned her head behind and found her nightmare Sehreyar standing in front of her. He is wearing only his night suit's pant. His muscular body is on display. Meher looked down feeling embarrassed. He is looking at her with his usual blank expression.

She bent down to collect those shattered teacup pieces. She said with her trembling voice," I am sorry. I will set the table right now."

" You are forgetting the rules," Sehreyar said and hold her one forearm tightly. With an abrupt turn, he made her stand up and looked into her eyes.

He asked showing her, his wristwatch," What time is it?"

She was silent. She is looking down when Sehreyar asked again," What time is it?"

But, this time his voice was very harsh making her flinch a little.

" 8:30 a.m," Meher replied timidly.

Sehreyar asked," And what time you were supposed to serve me breakfast?"

" 8 a.m. Sir, please. Don't get mad. I am sorry. I will make...........Meher couldn't complete her sentence when Sehreyar said throwing her on the floor," Today you will not eat anything except water. It's your punishment for forgetting the rules."

Meher said standing up from the floor," Sir, the day is quite long. It will be very difficult for.........."

" Another word and I will call the lawyer to stop fighting your brother's case," Sehreyar replied and Meher got alerted immediately.

She said biting her lips to control the tears," I will not eat anything. Don't call the lawyer."

" That's good. And another thing, always wear your niqab in college. I don't want other men to watch what belongs to Sehreyar Al-Sheikh," Sehreyar said closing the distance between him and Meher.

Meher asked looking down," Sir, it's very hot out there. I will wear hijab. Can I just skip the niqab? Sometimes it suffocates me."

" Are you so desperate to show your slutty face to the public? Hmm! Do you want other people to want you as their mistress also? Are you so desperate to sleep with other people also? Sehreyar asked angrily to insult Meher.

He is a complete jerk who didn't leave any chance to insult Meher. He might not raise his hands on her but he is another jerk who always punish her by starving, making her stand up the whole day etc. And his insulting words are most painful for Meher.

" No, Sir. I will go in niqab covering my face," Meher replied. She tried her hard to control the tears but those stupid tears made their way from her eyes down to her cheeks.

Sehreyar smirked seeing Meher's condition and kissed her hard on her lips. She didn't flinch away nor she kissed him back. She just stood there frozen letting the tears flow. His touches always felt torture for her.

" Don't waste your time in college. Be in the home before it's 6 p.m," Sehreyar said more like ordered Meher.

Meher replied timidly," Yes, Sir."

Sehreyar is eyeing Meher from head to toe when Meher asked him," Sir, Can I go to meet my brother?"

" Which one? The criminal one or the crippled one? Sehreyar asked sarcastically.

Meher fisted her palms in anger and gritted her teeth.

" Stop calling them like that. They have name," She replied sternly forgetting that any of her disobedience can cost her many things.

Sehreyar replied with amusement," You are becoming braver day by day. Aren't you?"

Hearing him, something snapped inside Meher's head and she apologised without any further thought.

She lowered her eyes when Sehreyar sternly said," You will go to your college and return home timely. Otherwise.........."

" I will return home timely," Meher replied before Sehreyar could complete his sentence.

Sehreyar smirked seeing the terror inside Meher's eyes. He is satisfied after insulting her early in the morning.

After that Sehreyar left the kitchen without having breakfast. He returned to his room to get ready for his office.

" You are the most disgusting person I have ever seen in my life. I hate you," Meher said to Sehreyar's retreating figure and chewed a toast angrily.
