EVELEEN'S POV          The door shut behind us. I took a deep relief breath.     " Are you insane? You're just seventeen. He looks older than your father. " I scolded her.      She started crying, " He killed my parents and he had captured my brother. If I didn't do what he said, he will murder my brother too. " She said in a cracked voice. Tears were flowing continuously from her eyes. I could feel her pain as I went through the same pain. But Still my situation was totally different. Duante didn't kill my family.      " Shh! Stop crying. We don't have much time. I'll find your brother and then you haven't any need to do this marriage. " I wiped her tears.       She was crying. I knew this feeling. I would not let her do this. I placed my hand on her forearm. She cried in pain as my touch was giving her pain. 

  EVELEEN'S POV     My sleep broke early today. I was ceaselessly glaring out of the window. Balustrade was touching from roof to floor now, giving it the full look of cage. I had attempted to jump from it, indeed I threatened him to jump from it. My husband made it prisoner for me. Now it was giving me the proper feeling of a cage.         I put my feet on the floor. I swiveled to see him. He wasn't here nor my note. I thought it would blow up with wind. I hopefully peeped under bed, it wasn't there. That indicated that he had gotten my note. Door creaked open. He stepped in the room. He was looking handsome in a cream suit and coffee color shirt, a Rolex watch was gleaming on his wrist. His upper two buttons were unfastened. My bitten mark was visible from his open shirt, although it started to fade, I knew this mark would not go. I bit my bottom lip and stood up and sat on the mattress. Shouldn't he

       I was on the main gate, only one step away. I'd be free from his cage. I felt a tight grip on my wrist. I quivered with fear and my heart beat started to run on the treadmill. I turned to see, "Thomas, you scared me."I sighted. He removed my backpack from my shoulder and asked his men to put all the stuff where it belonged.       "Where are you going? "he frowned. He was glaring at me.      "You know what I'm doing. I don't wanna go there. Lemme go, please. "I said.     "Why? "he asked anxiously.     "He's taking me to Mexico. I don't wanna go. My family is here. They don't talk to me but I can see them. "I said.       Abruptly, I heard a thud and groan. I turned my eyes from him to see. It was the same man who took my backpack, who was laying on the ground with a bleeding nose. My body shivered. I swallowed hard. I felt

 Eveleen' 's POV          Yesterday memories were floating in my mind. I was thinking the whole night about her. I blinked several times to throw away the blur. My eyes were feeling odd to me. His arms were securely around me, to salvage me from evil. I gripped his hand to remove it from around me. It was stapled around me. He stayed with me the whole night. It was new for me. I didn't wanna wake him up. I kept my head back on his chest. He wasn't that bad, his thought spread a small smile on my face. But my heart was aching to think about Rose. Tears escaped from my closed eyes.         He stirred suddenly, "What's wrong? "he said in a husky voice.       Seriously for a few seconds, I forgot where I was. I brushed my hand on my cheeks, "Nothing, sorry I've awoken you. It was by mistake."I said in a slow voice.        "Are y

Eveleen' POV          ( After three weeks.. .. .. )       I never stopped thinking about Rose. She was in danger. I was always fearing he'd kill her. I didn't try to call her once. I know she'll not pick it up. She is born stubborn. When I told Mini everything she couldn't believe it. Mini wasn't good at keeping secrets. So I don't talk to him. Mostly, Rose and I shared everything. I was gazing out of the balcony. I could see the backyard garden.       " You like the house. " Duante asked me, hugging me from behind.      " It's beautiful. " I replied, glancing down from the balcony. It was so high, I was clutching his hand firmly. Traffic was moving like ants in a fixed queue far from my sight. I could see the main highway from here.       I never thought he'd be this good to me. When I met him
