38. Psychopath.
Sophia's POV
My head was hurting so bad but I couldn't bring my hand up to hold it. My hands and feet felt numb. With a lot of struggle I opened my eyes to meet with a dark wall in front of me. I was racking my brain to find out how I landed here but couldn't remember a thing . I felt extremely drowsy and darkness consumed me again before I knew it.
Next time when I opened my eyes , I was in the same place but this time I remembered everything. Walking out of the restaurant and getting kidnapped.
Ethan! My poor baby. Was he missing me ? He gets scared when I am not there for a few hours and I don't know for how long I have been here. He must be thinking that I have left him. I hope Nick can handle him.
Nick !? Was he fine? He should be right ? Did they take only me?
I was lying on the floor in the middle of a dark room. My hands and feet were tied which explains the numbness. My back was badly aching for being in that posi

The Arranged Bride 39. She Left.
Nick's POV" Four days , four days since she got kidnapped , since I last saw her, Dad. Nobody is able to trace her . I-I don't know what to do anymore." I put my head in my hands. I didn't remember when I had last felt so helpless . My patience was running thin , I was randomly lashing out at anyone and everyone. Sleep , had as if left me. I was now desperately praying for a clue to reach her.The police didn't find anything suspicious about Clara. Her mobile was tracked and it showed nothing unnatural." I know my consolation isn't going to do shit but I strongly believe that we will find her. Don't loose hope." Putting a hand on my shoulder , he gently squeezed it." When ? When will I find her? I don't even know in what conditions is Sophia living. Where is she Dad ? " I spoke without looking at him. I knew I was being pessimistic but I couldn't help the fear that was bubbling inside me." M-Mom le-left ?" I hear
The Arranged Bride 40. Hold On.
Sophia's POVI felt cold water being splashed on me.I groaned and tried opening my eyes but couldn't. The last few days were were like a horrible nightmare. Sometimes, Christina even used to have one of the guys beat me until I was knocked out. I was always either in pain or was drowsy.Suddenly a hard kick was delivered to my stomach but still, I couldn't move. Every part of body was aching. I peeled open my eyes to look at Christina looking down at me. She crouched down in front of me and fisted my hair in her hands. Pulling it harshly , she made me face her." Aww , look how pretty you look. " She cooed at me mockingly and within a second her face turned angry with pure hatred in her eyes." You know I would have loved to do a bit more damage to your pretty face which snatched Nick away from me. But you know, nobody would like their whore look uglier than you already are." By the end of the statement she was maniacally
The Arranged Bride 41. Psychotic Bitch.
Nick's POVThere was a dead silence , no one bothered to speak . Everyone was anticipating what the doctors would say. After what seemed like hours, the doctor came out. I was trying to read his expression but his neutral face gave away nothing." Doctor , how is she ?" I asked." The abuse she faced was serious. She is thoroughly bruised and a few ribs were broken. She is out of danger now but she is extremely weak due to lack of food in her system. Also , there was a huge amount of sedatives in her body . She will need few hours before she is conscious again." No one uttered a word simply because we simply didn't know what to say." Was there - was there any sign of - any sexual abuse?" Ryan asked the question that I was dreading so much. No matter what , I couldn't bring myself to ask it ." No. Fortunately, there were no signs of molestation." I breathed out in relief . I don't know what I would have done if the
The Arranged Bride 42. A Hot Man!?
Sophia's POV" Good morning, Sophia." Nick pecked my forehead, waking me up. As I opened my eyes I was welcomed with the sight of a smiling Nick." Good morning." I yawned and looked at him." You're here so early?" He chuckled at my words causing me to frown." I was here only and it's around ten , not so early I guess." I smiled sheepishly at him on realizing that I had been sleeping for about twelve hours straight.The medicines were making me drowsy and last night I was out just as I closed my eyes." Nick , you should go home and take rest. You look so tired." He was here for two continuous days and his face showed signs of pure exhaustion." Not happening. I will not go home and moreover I am not tired . I slept here." He pointed to the sofa in the room. Seriously? Just by looking at it, one can tell it is uncomfortable." Oh you aren't tired ? But the eye bags suggest otherwise." I narrowed my eyes at
The Arranged Bride 43. Together.
Nick's POVOn feeling a lot of movement beside me , I blinked open my eyes. It has been three days since Sophia was discharged from the hospital. Since then I have become a light sleeper. I was trying to be alert in case she needed something in the middle of the night.I looked at Sophia to see her squirming , her eyebrows furrowed . Leaning on my elbow , I roamed my eyes over her body to find the cause of discomfort. Her face was scrunched up in what seemed like pain." Sophia , does anything hurt?" I asked only to get no response. Her squirming increased every passing second which was making me anxious. I couldn't wait for the pain to become unbearable and as I was about to get up to call the doctor , I heard her mumble something." No - please no.." My eyebrows creased in confusion. Was she asking to not call the doctor? But I didn't say it aloud . Then how-My thoughts were cut off when she spoke again."
The Arranged Bride 44. Honeymoon?
Sophia's POVIt has been three weeks since I had my last nightmare and Nick was the one to pull me through it . From waking me up whenever I had a nightmare, holding me close to him and whispering assuring words in my ears to talking about my nightmares, he did them all. I couldn't help but fall deeper for the caring and loving side he has shown to me.I love him, I love him with my everything but confessing it seems to be the toughest job on Earth. I am scared of his rejection. What if his feelings are not mutual ? What if he doesn't feel the same about me? Yes , he likes me and cares for me but love..." Sophia , are you alright ?" I came out of my thoughts to look at Tyler and all my friends looking at me. Yeah, I had joined office since two weeks now. Nick didn't want me to join so early but I was sick of sitting at home. Besides, taking undue advantage of being the boss's wife isn't something I appreciate much." Yeah
The Arranged Bride 45. Patience, Baby!
Nick's POVI was up and as usual , Sophia was still sleeping in my arms, looking as innocent as ever. I slowly stroked her hair while staring at her face.Last night I was nervous as hell. I came home early with the cake and the necklace to surprise her but as the time was coming close , I was freaking out. When Ethan left the room , I could feel my heart beating at an inhuman speed but I had to say it. I couldn't afford to not confess my feelings to her.I was skeptical about her reaction but when she said that she loves me as well, I was ecstatic. If anyone would have told me some months back that I would be so much in love with anyone, I would have laughed but now this is where I was.I tried removing her hand but it only tightened around my
