MasukThe sky grew darker with every passing second. Heavy clouds gathered like a warning. Thunder ripped through the heavens, loud and angry, followed by sharp flashes of lightning. Then the rain came. Not gentle. Not calm. It poured hard, slamming into the earth as if the sky itself was grieving.Elena lay on the cold ground, completely soaked. Mud clung to her clothes. Rain streamed down her face, mixing with blood and tears. Her body felt heavy, useless. She was half conscious. Half gone.She could hear the rain beating against her ears. She could feel it drenching her skin, chilling her bones. Somewhere close, footsteps echoed through the storm. Slow. Careful. Approaching.Her fingers twitched slightly. That was all she could manage.Her eyelids felt too heavy to open. Her head throbbed painfully. Every breath hurt her chest. Her body felt to heavy every-time she wanted to move. Pain shot down to her bones. She heard the footsteps stopped beside her.A shadow loomed over her. She fel
Malik’s fists were clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his palms. He stared at the man in front of him. Sweat ran down the man’s face. His lips trembled. His eyes darted nervously between Malik and the empty road behind him.“Tell me!” Malik’s voice was low, sharp, dangerous. “Where did he go?!”The man swallowed hard. His hands shook. “I… I don’t know!” he stammered. “I just… I just switched cars for him! He… he paid me a lot of money. That’s all I know!”Malik’s chest rose and fell violently. His entire body trembled—not just with anger, but with the raw fear that Elena’s life was slipping further from his grasp. “You expect me to believe that?” he hissed. “He’s dangerous! Someone could get hurt! Someone already is!”The man’s eyes widened. “Wait—what? Dangerous? Who? I—I don’t even know him! I swear! I just… I got paid! That’s it!”Malik’s jaw tightened. Every second felt like a hammer pounding in his chest. “If I call the police right now, they’ll find you in possession of
Malik was still watching Alex every closely even after the many hours that had passed.He stayed in his car, parked across the street from Alex’s house, long after the city had gone quiet. The engine was off. The windows were slightly open. The streetlight above flickered every few minutes, throwing weak shadows across the road.He watched the gate.Even the slightest movement alerted him.Hours passed.Cars drove in and out of the neighborhood. Guards changed shifts. Lights came on in some rooms and went off in others. Somewhere nearby, a dog barked and then stopped.Yet Alex never came out.Malik shifted in his seat, his back stiff, his neck aching. He rolled his shoulders once, then still again. If he closed his eyes, even for a second, he felt like he might miss something important.His phone vibrated.Claudia.“Are you still there?” she asked quietly.“Yes,” Malik replied.There was a pause. He could hear her breathing on the other end.“You’ve been there for hours,” she said. “T
The night did not end for Elena when Alex left.She knew she could never ever be the same again after that night.The memories. The damage.It stayed in her body.In her bones.In her breath.Hours passed, but her legs still shook. They shook as if they were still getting hit repeatedly. Every small movement sent pain through her body. Her muscles felt torn. Her skin felt bruised. Her head throbbed, heavy and hot, like it might split open at any moment.One of her eyes was swollen and red. It burned each time she blinked. Her lips were dry and cracked. Her throat felt tight, like it had been tied from the inside. Even swallowing her own saliva hurt.But the worst pain was not what she felt on her skin.It was what she felt inside.Elena lay on the bed without moving. Her body was there, but her soul felt far away. She stared at the ceiling, looking like she had no soul in her body. Her mind was empty yet she was feeling everything all at once.Fear.Shame.Anger.Disgust.Her chest fe
At first, he pulled her hair back softly, his hand strolling down her face. He loved the softness of her skin.But as soon as Elena tried to fight back, his hands tightened on her hair. She screamed in pain.He held her chin tightly. Elena felt a sharp pain as his fingers dug into her skin.She felt a sudden headache from his tight grasp.She tried to resist, but he didn’t let her go. Instead, he leaned in to kiss her hard.Elena struggled, but she was no match for his strength.His lips dropped further to her neck as he kissed and sucked deeply. He didn’t stop until he left a hickey on her neck.Tears rolled down her eyes.“Let me go, you bastard,” Elena screamed, but it was almost as though even her scream gave him pleasure.Alex was like a mad dog when he tore her nightwear, exposing her breasts that stood firm and solid.Her nipples were hard. It was as though they were calling out to him.Without hesitation, Alex filled her breast with his mouth.Before she could resist, he grabb
Malik’s apartment was in total turmoil.Nothing was in its right place anymore. It was as quiet as a graveyard but yet the air felt so disturbed. Like something terrible had already happened and was still happening at the same time.Claudia paced around the living room endlessly, her steps quick and uneven. She bit her lips continuously. Worry and concern filled her face. She looked restless and unsettled. Her hands shook each time she rubbed them together.She could not stay still.Malik, on the other side of the sitting room, sat on one of the cushions near the wall. He looked calm, but it was the kind of calm that comes before something breaks. His elbows rested on his knees. His hands were clasped tightly together.Anyone who truly knew him could see it.He was more worried than anyone else in the room.Mr. Clarkson sat opposite him, phone pressed tightly to his ear. His voice was controlled, but his eyes betrayed him.“Yes… thank you,” he said slowly. “Please, we will be waiting
