Dark Knight- Saved by The Tyrant King

Strange Feelings...

She was sleeping like a koala. She might be a tortured soul but has a composed vibe in her, which made people relax, just looking at her.

Her soft pink lips were pale along with her jade white skin. Her face was dull and damaged, proof of the heavy avoidance of self-care. Yet, it could not suppress the surging beauty she carried with herself.

Her high cheekbones and celestial shaped nose were the highlights of her oval-shaped face. And those jet black hair was just a perfect complement to her whole feature.

Those long dark lashes were touching her cheeks and medium length hair was spread over the white pillow, making her divine. If her cheeks were not broken but filled at the moment, anyone would have taken her as a Goddess, sleeping peacefully.

Ruslan carefully watched the sleeping woman. He was impressed by her beauty. Especially those eyes. he was mostly attracted by her ivory eyes. They were cold as ice, Mysterious as the universe and painful as if rotted in hell for a very long time! A perfect creation of God!

And for some unknown reason, he wanted to know all those secrets she was hiding behind her scarred soul.

Ruslan was alone in the room. After the doctor checked up on her, everyone left, including Igor. Every time he would insist on following his best friend because of his high temper. But, somehow to-day he left with others. Maybe inside he also knew that he would not hurt this innocent, but protect her.

Ruslan didn't know for how long he was staring at her. But he just couldn't withdraw his eyes from her. This was new for him. The doctor's words kept roaming inside his mind.

'She has been tortured very brutally, including her private parts. Not sure been raped or not. If even it wasn't, then also it was no less than being raped! She has deep scars on her body and some were very old, maybe for years, she has been tortured. Even she had been kept in some dark and cold places too for a long time. Because she was very weak. so, the sudden incident took her by surprise and her body lost the fight.'

The more he thought of her being tortured, the more his blood rushed into his head. Ruslan rubbed his hands over his face in frustration. As his eyes again fixed on the sleeping beauty.

His heart was sunken with some strange feelings and uncomfortablity, he never felt before. His hands were itching to rip those persons alive by his bare hands, who dared to torture this pure soul! Even he was angry with himself that how could he just use her for his selfishness! How could he didn't notice this innocence at first! And to repay her, he would protect her from now on at any cost!

"Mo..mma..a.." The little girl sobbed hugging her mother. Her mother's life was almost on the verge to leave her ruined body. "L..issten to m..omma ba..by.." She managed to speak somehow.

Her weak and trembling hands caressed her little daughter's fair pink cheeks.. "r..run a..aw.ay.. you have to liv..eh andh.. yo..uhh..ave to li..ve forh mo..momm..ah.. M..om .ma lov..es yo.uh.." Her voice came out broken and it was hard to understand the little girl. Still, she understood the main point of running away. Because it was the most heard and common word for this little girl.

She shook her head stubbornly and clenched her mother's hand as if there was no to-morrow. "No momma! Please don't leave me!" She was a crying mess by now.

Her mother gulped again painfully. She knew she would not live long enough. "O..ne day som..eone w..ill co..comeh to..h sa.v.e you.. Th..e prince cha..rmingh I sa..id.." The little girl again shook her head. "Ple..ease momma.." She was trying hard to hold her tears. Her mother always said that strong girls do not cry. And she wanted to be the strongest girl for her mother.

But her little mind was also broken witnessing her mother in this way.

Her mother dropped a soft and breathy kiss on her hand. "Ye..sh, b..aby.. And.. And h.e wi.ll sav..e yo..uh.. Mo..mmah lo..v..es y..ou m..y lo..oveh.." And slowly with a smile set on her face for her daughter, she left the world for good and all.

Eviena's eyes jerked open. Clenched in sweat and with a thudding heart, she sat up on the bed. A sigh of relief came out from her, thinking it was only a dream.

It's not a dream but a nightmare for her. She has faced this scene in childhood and this part has always haunted her after that. Especially when her mother let go of her last breath in her arms.

Sometimes Eviena did not understand why God send her into this world when he hated her so much! Wouldn't it be good for both of them if he never send her into this world! The only person who cared for her in life was her mother. Even she died while saving her.

Bending the knees close to her chest, Eviena hugged herself. Life has once again prisoned her in a place. But, this one was a bit different from than others.

And that man. The angry king. Remembering his deep grey orbs, Eviena shivered alone. They were very enchanting and dangerous as well. They were very curious and manipulative, which could make her helpless in no time.

Eviena tried to push away her weariness forcefully. She did not want to recall them. They scared her in a different way! "I wish I don't have to see them anymore." She murmured on her own.

Time passed by and with time, Eviena was growing impatient. Because since she has been waking up, no one came into the room. In her mind, surely she has been kept locked in the room. So, she did not even try to examine if she was right or not.

However, with passing time, it was hard for her to sit down without doing anything. She got out of bed. "Let's see if I have ever in my luck or it's just my over expectation from God."

Eviena twisted the knob and with a click sound, the door opened. Her jaw almost hit on the floor. "I..is it really not locked!? Or.. or, they forgot!?!"

It took her a good long minute to digest the whole truth that she has not been locked inside. Maybe, for others, it was nothing important, but for a girl like her, it's a miracle of life, that happened once in life!

Slowly, she opened the door and with an excited, drumming heart, she stepped her feet out of the room, very conscious about the next thing that could happen to her.

And then again, her badluck knocked on the door. Because the moment she set her feet out of the room, she was bumped into something and with a loud breaking sound, something crashed on the floor!
