Aiden's pov

I came to the office after she went to college. I wanted to wait for her but I have an important meeting to attend so I came and attended the meeting. After that I hurriedly headed to her college to see her. I don't know why I feel like it is essential to see her every time. She became essential like breathing. I didn't feel this feeling earlier and I can't understand it so it makes me more restless.

I parked my car in front of her college and waited for her. She came smiling widely with her friends. Her smile makes me feel something. She's looking so cute and beautiful. She talked with her three friends, one boy and two girls. I have their information but I ignore that thought it is not necessary. Both girls went in a car and then the boy and Elsa talked for some minutes and then she put her hand on his shoulder and smiled while talking. My grip on the steering wheel became more tight and turned my knuckle white. It's fine he is just a friend, nothing else but she touches him comfortably.

I stared in anger at them. Some minutes later the boy went on his bike in the opposite direction and Elsa went in the opposite direction. She walked to the Cafe where she works as a waitress. This cafe was 10 minutes walking distance from her college. She went in and I waited for her outside. Why I don't know? but I love waiting for her. I hold myself to not to barge in that cafe and stare the hell out of her.

Some hours later she came outside and walked in the direction of the bus stand. She looked tired. Did she eat her lunch? How she manages all of these while her other classmates enjoyed their college life. But she's here trying to earn, but why does her brother not care about her and her needs?

She waited for the bus and then she talked to someone on the phone while laughing and nodded while smiling. She changed her expression in lighting speed. Let no one know who the real she is? She talked while sitting in the bus and went towards her home.

Which is for some days after that I will become her permanent driver for life. When she entered her house I looked in that direction for some minutes and then headed to Volkov Mansion.

I came home and went to my study to complete my work and eat my dinner there because I have to attend an important meeting. The meeting went till late at night and after that I came to my room, took a good hot shower and went to bed.

But sleep was far away from me, her eyes, her smile, her face came in front of me. Did I really like her so much or is this just infatuation?

Elsa's pov

"Where is your salary? This is not a hostel.  You have to pay here for your food and room. Otherwise we rented your and your parents room to earn some money." 

Hanna told me in anger while eating her breakfast with Ryder. Last night I'm lucky to not get a chance to see them but today my stars are working against me.

And yes I gave them money from my salary so they let me live here and majorly not rented my parents room which I love the most. 

"Actually I bought my college books  and some money I saved for my daily traveling so...." I said while looking down, standing near the dining table with great difficulty but Ryder bro cut me between and start to shouting at me

"Who told you to save money and remember that you live here because we let you live here otherwise you are a waste. So better to give us money" 

I flinched hearing his words. Yes, right he let me live here in my parents house but for how many days he let me live I don't know. I just want to complete my studies so I get a good job and run from here and never return to this hell. Otherwise they both did something wrong with me forcefully like they tried to do before. 

Tears gathered in my eyes and my heartbeat increased to recall the last incident. They both forced me to get married to his friend because he was a wealthy person and gave them lots of money if I got married to him. They almost killed me to marry him but somehow I managed to tell everything to June and Nike bro, they both helped me and fought with  Ryder brother and Hanna. They backed off from their plan but after that I was always in fear that they both did something wrong with me.

I control myself by digging my nails in my palm to control my sob. My hands are shaking, trembling in fear. Somehow I managed my sobs.

I went to my room and hurriedly got ready for college wearing blue jeans and white t-shirt with white sneakers. Simple, sweet , classy. I tied my hair in a ponytail and wore a golden color watch. I message Ron to pick me up because I'm so late for today's class and I don't want to miss it. 

I came into the living room where they both sat and I pulled out some notes from my purse and gave it to Hanna, she happily took it. I didn't stand there to hear any taunts and ran out of the house. 

Ron waited for me after five minute walk from my house. Why? Because I don't want anyone to misunderstand us and tell him or any of my friends inappropriate things. Which I don't want. 

Those boys I hate them, they stand in my path. They all talk loudly about my brother, things like, how much he drank last night? what he did and how embarrassing his act was and how much money he lost in gambling? They all not only speak that they literally shouted that so I hear all of that and then answer their stupid questions.

I ignored them like always and went where Ron waited for me. 

"Hey ghost" I said to him and he looked at me with a bored expression.

I hopped on his bike and placed my bag in between us and he started the bike towards our college.

    Elsa's pov I tried to get up from the cold floor, my back was hurting, almost my whole body was aching. But the harsh words from my brother's mouth hurt me the most. I sit on the floor, my back supporting my bed. I hate this emotional side of myself. I am feeling helpless. I can't protect myself. But did anyone feel like protecting themselves in their own damn home from their family? If not then why me. Why I'm suffering from all of this. I wanted just a normal life from the very beginning but alas I never had. And about the future, they seal my fate as a slut. No no no I didn't let anyone touch my body. I prefer to die rather than to be in bed with that type of filthy person. I looked out of the window which had iron rods. Its lightly dark outside sun is about to come. I hope it never rises. I hope this night becomes longer and engulf me in itself to protect me from outside brightness. I'm continuously staring outside the window. I have no energy to get up and get read

Still my body is in pain, having left no energy in that. I sat on the bed and covered myself properly with a duvet.I recall the last day's incidents. I might be ill from being drenched in rain but in reality I know that I am not getting food and rest properly from the past so many days that my immune system became weak and the rain drops triggered it to become rebellion.I got up from bed groaning and went to the bathroom taking a good hot shower and came outside wearing a loose brown t-shirt and black trousers. I went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast but to my surprise Hanna already prepared it and sat on the dining table having it. I didn't see Ryder so I asked her but she didn't reply to me. "Prepare lunch fast, Ryder is about to come" She said in a harsh tone munching breakfast. I didn't eat anything
