James stepped closer to her, and responded calmly, "You need to behave, Kara. Don't think I am going to tolerate anyone's dirty hands on you."
She looked into his dark eyes while he lifted his hand and traced her jaw with his finger and trailed it down to her cleavage. She tried to shove him off but ended up pressing harder against his body.
"You lost your bet, James."
He smirked at her and slipped his finger down to her abdomen, hearing a gasp escape her lips as she sucked in a sharp breath. His fingers squeezed her waist and pulled her closer to his body tightly, "There aren't any bets valid when it comes to you."
Her heart beat loudly hearing the meaning behind his words. As his face dipped in her collar to trace the skin with his
"Get the stretchers ready.""Are there any casualties?""... No, two patients, heavily injured. Car fell down the hill."The broken sounds barely fell in Kara's years as she came in and out of consciousness. As soon as the car went down, they collided with rocks and she did not even realize when she became unconscious. As she heard the voices, she realized the doctors were talking about her and Damon. She felt a bit of relief knowing Damon was still alive, but afraid too because the pain her body was severe enough for her to realize that the injuries they had suffered were not small ones.*****"Kara?" Someone gently patted her face, "Kara, are you awake?"
"Yeah," James murmured, "it seems so. We have now increased security and everyone is under investigation for trying to murder you. Whoever it is, we will find out soon enough."****One month LaterKara moved a bit, and climbed out of the bed. Her hands clutched the handles of walking sticks, trying to stand up. She had barely stood up, when two hands snatched the sticks, put them aside and lifted her up bridal style."How many times are you going to make me repeat?" James frowned and started walking towards the hall with her, "don't make trouble. Don't make me worry. Don't get out of the fucking bed on your own. Just holler my name, how hard is that for you?"Kara s
"Stay here." James bent his head down and kissed her forehead, his hand holding the back of her head in his palm, "I might be back after an hour or so.""It is fine. I am finally getting some time to chill." Kara grinned enthusiastically.After so much arguments and discussions James had finally agreed to go to work, but only if Kara accompanied him there and stayed with him inside the office. He was completely in control of every minute that she breathed.James nodded his head and stood up to walk away. He straightened, but stayed in his place for a few more minutes, not really wanting to leave her alone. His heart would not stop wanting to stay near her. With everything going on and even before that, he had almost lost her. Now that she was in front of his eyes, he stayed assured she
The waiter was absolutely terrified of James' anger at that point. He was constantly mumbling apologies, even when James pushed him out of the room furiously. He slammed the door behind the waiters and then turned around, his face filled with malice and frustration."James, it was not that big of a matter, I am totally alright."James huffed out a loud growl and stormed ahead until he was just a step away from where she was sitting, "He almost ripped your clothes off of your body. How the hell am I to shut up? What if he had something in his hands and it fell on you? I brought you here with me so I can keep you safe, not to harm you even more."Kara raised her hand and grabbed his in her fist gently, "Don't be so much worried. You are going to fall sick at this rate."James pushed his hand through his hair in frustration. It was not an easy thing for him to keep Kara in this office. He was worried about her health. Her leg was still in a plaster which mad

Damon was absolutely furious. He grabbed Kara by her arm and pulled her away with himself, "I am not leaving you one more second alone with this bastard." he blasted out and started dragging her away with himself.He stopped when he felt a tug and Kara did not move. Turning his head towards her he fumed, "What are you doing?"Kara was standing with a determined hold on her hand, and fixed in her spot, "I am not going anywhere with you.""What? Why?!""Because you are not making any freaking sense!" she shouted, "you are not even listening to what I have to say or what exactly happened. You just assumed things and blamed them on James. How the hell is that fair?"Neil stepped in betwe
He rubbed his nape before stalking off towards the small bar in the room. Kara stood there helplessly. She tried to call his name again but he raised his index finger in the air, indicating her to keep mum.She gulped hard but did not say anything. There was no one else except them in the room but she felt like someone had made her stand inside a burning fire alone where there was no one to protect her but everyone was standing around staring at her getting burned under the blazing fire to the ashes.She tried to keep her composer, not trying to show him her weakness but failed miserably as each passing second increased her heartbeat. She could not understand what he was going to do next. He suddenly turned to face her. The fire in his eyes froze her to the spot making her remember what level of his anger he had showed to his family num
Kara did not even realize when her cheeks got stained with tears that she had been trying to hold back. She had trusted James with her body and soul and hearing him say all these words were enough to tear her soul apart. She had hated him when he had not been there for her, but there had never been a day when she had not loved him blindly. Even when he had ignored her, even when he had hidden her away in the confinement of his room, hidden how closely, how passionately he treated her, she had loved him. He had been there in her arms when she had come to know the difference between a man and woman, she had been in his lap when he had breathed in her scent longingly for the first time, he had been there in front of her eyes on each step of her life, in each moment. And even when he was not there for her in past three years, she had never in her wildest dream even thought of ditching him or being with some other man for physical pleasure. How can she feel so much for a man who thinks o
