CHAPTER 30: Paranoia
"Stop shivering, Hazel. You are raising suspicions."
Emily's scolding had Hazel looking up with her anxious eyes. And indeed, the officer Theodore had sent for her, was looking her way with joined brows and concerned expressions.
Seeing her eyes on him, he took the initiative of asking,"Is everything okay, ma'am?" His tone filled with respect.
Hazel lowered her eyes and mumbled, "Yes, sir. I'm fine. Thank you." She intake large breaths to calm herself down.
The officer didn't look persuaded though he didn't press furthur either. Nodding, he stepped a bit away from the girls to give them some privacy Albeit his eyes were following them with hawk gaze.
"Now what?" Hazel mouthed to Emily who was standing beside her. Both were now in corridor of hospital. Emily indicated Hazel to keep quiet and turned towards the officer.
"Sir, I will take Hazel inside my office. You can guard on the doorframe."
"Sure thing." He gave a curt nod.

Ruined CHAPTER 31: Pregnancy Reports
"Why are you doing this?!"Her helpless voice had Chris turned towards her. His eyes studied her carefully. From her exhausted face to her sweating body, he analyzed it all.And why wouldn't she be exhausted? She had been running through the whole military track from past two hours."Because I can." He replied in sweetly sickening tone, walking towards her and forwarding her bottle of water. She was barely able to stand on her feets, her legs writhing and shivering badly.She took it from him with breathless thank you, that made him almost smile. Even when he was drilling the hell out of her, she wasn't forgetting her manners. Sweet girl.Too bad, Chris couldn't allow his heart to sway him. He had matters to even with her."That's an abuse of authority. I can complain to Sir Theodore." She said after drinking some drops of water and recovering her breaths."That statement of yours had earned you three more rounds to your prior number.
Ruined CHAPTER 32: Start Of Destruction
Her mouth went dry with fear. She couldn't speak. She couldn't move. All she could do was to gaze down at the reports and then back at him, time to time, with nothing but paleness and anxiety."Talk, Hazel." He said, closing the door and turning around that made her step back unconsciously.He feigned ignorance of her fearful antic. "Right now, I'm very angry, Hazel. So, let me know if you know something about why the hell have I received this unexpected report on my address. If you don't open your mouth, then I will gladly rip the envelope open and will make you read it. And if I found out anything about it concerns you, then God help me. Rest will be the dreadful future, you will remember as close as a horrifying history."With each step he spoke, he took a step closer to her. While, all she could do was to move back and back until her back touched the cold wall, that notified her of pathless alley she had walked into and now the only way to cross it was throu
Ruined CHAPTER 33: Her Decision
"Shh, baby. Stop crying, will you? Are you not my good girl?"He was trying to hush her softy while brushing his fingers through her hair in an attempt to calm her. But, her tears were not stopping. Not a sound was leaving her. He was continuously murmuring gentle things and regretful apologies for jumping to conclusions. But for her, his voice was just blurred frequency resonating in the background.She was traumatized with shock. Her mind wasn't accepting the news.She was pregnant? She? What did she know about pregnancy?How can she bear the child of her rapist?How will she raise the child on her own?But the most terrifying question that was flashing before her eyes again and again was how would she confront Theodore about this?The mere thought sent tremors down her body. Fear struck her. Didn't know what hit her, but she began to wriggle in Theodore
Ruined CHAPTER 34: Obsession
His blood shot eyes were blankly staring at the ceiling, bottle of expensive liquor in his hand from which he had been drinking like an addict.He was sat on the floor, with his back leaned against the side frame of his king sized bed. His hair grown, face pale and eyes mahogany. He looked high on drugs.And he indeed was.He had been inhaling heroine and other drugs from time her disappearance had started taking troll over him. He couldn't deal with the stress. And thus, all he could do was drink and inhale until the painful memories of his time with her, would vanish away from his mind, leaving him nothing but hollow and numb.He didn't know where to find her anymore.All his resources had failed. There was no clue of her. It was as if she had disappeared in thin air.He couldn't get to meet with Evelyn and Chloe either. Apparently, the orders from that Brigadier were like stamp on paper. There was no repelling against his words."U
Ruined CHAPTER 35: Little Mouse
With very thundering heart, Hazel stepped out of her room. The whole house was eerie and silent, evening's dim light coming from window.The atmosphere added more anxiety to her already anxious nerves.Taking in short, nervous breaths, she dragged herself forward to the kitchen to hydrate herself. The pregnancy reports were tightly clutched in her hands. She had made up her mind to talk with Theodore. Today and right this instant.After drinking the water of course.Not that it would be of any use. Her mouth always goes dry at his presence, anyway.He would-"So the little mouse is out of her attic, huh?"Much for the; Speak of the devil and devil appears.His sudden voice caused her to jump in fright. Stabling herself, she placed the now empty glass on the shelve before turning around and looking at him.He was leaned against the doorframe, in his casual black button up shirt and black pants, sleeves rolled to his
Ruined CHAPTER 36: Karma
Sat in darkness and silence, Edward was working on finding his solace in it. Though, it was no where yet somehow he was alive. Merely breathing but alive.Suddenly, his peace of mind got disturbed by distant voices, some uproarious and some haughty. His brows furrowed together on hearing his father shouting at someone. He had never seen him doing that before."How fucking dare you touch my Minha , huh?!" He was yelling in deranged tone.Edward's brows cocked up hearing the name of his one and only elder sister who moved out of the house a year back and had gotten bit distant from them. At first, it was weird but then Edward grew used to it. Their father's wealth and influence had made her independent at an early age.Though, no doubt, Edward was the one who had gotten most benefitted from his father's influence. But right now, when he needed his father's influence the most, his father dearest had backed away, causing him to mentally writh in abandon
Ruined CHAPTER 37: Rage Like Never Before
"What is it you wanted to talk about?"Theodore was leaned against his desk, with his both hands gently enveloping Hazel's. He could feel the tremors coursing through her skin. And that had rose suspicions and concerns in him. She wouldn't be this scared and anxious for no reason."Hazel, baby. Let it out. What's disturbing you?" He said gently, raising her one hand and placing a kiss on back of it.Hazel lifted her fearful eyes and looked at him. "Promise me, you will not be a-angry at me."Her words made him lift his brows. "The fact that you are taking time to make that promise with me tells me that whatever you are saying will anger me alot. Will it not?"It will." She mumbled with lowered eyes."And yet you want to tell me?""I have to." A tear slipped past her eye, rolling down. Theodore looked at it for some minute before sighing out and brushing it away with his thumb."Go on, then. I'm not making any such promise."
Ruined CHAPTER 38: Guilt
"Come here, Hazel."Hazel lifted her swollen eyes and looked at him. He looked furious like never before. But, he was taking time to calm himself. He was struggling to control his beast from unleashing.Scared, she shook her head fearfully."P-Please l-listen to m-me. I didn't do-""FUCKING COME HERE!!"His sudden roar made her shrunk into her seat. Small whimpers escaped her trembling lips. Standing up on her shivering legs, she took baby steps in his direction and paused right infront of him. Her eyes not daring to lift from the floor.He grabbed the back of her neck before yanking her forward to his chest. His sudden action caught her off guard. She gasped, startled and placed her hands on his chest to study herself, her innocent, teary eyes clashing with his cold ones."You cheated on me." His words pricked at her heart. She tried to shook her head, but his tight grip on her neck didn't al
