Finding the Abyss of Love

16. Old Acquaintances

Noah’s POV

I looked at my cousin and his friend in confusion. Why were they looking at Zoya that way? Why was Zoya so nervous around them?

“Do you guys know her?” I couldn’t help but ask them.

“Oh yeah! We know her alright. We know her very well” Lucas winked at me.

“How?”

“She was my girlfriend when I was in school” Lucas replied. “But she gave her v-card to me” winked Aiden. Both them laughed out loud while my blood boiled at the thought of someone touching Zoya. 

Lucas told me how she was too boring and didn’t know how to satisfy a man, so he dumped her. Aiden said that she was a w***e and a S**t who easily gave him herself only because Lucas cheated on her. They both laughed hard as they told me everything. How could they be so unsensitive? How could they have just used Zoya like that? I clenched my jaw in anger and frustration, making a fist turning my knuckles white.

“Did you see how the b***h looked at you? I bet she still has feelings for you Lucas.” Aiden laughed again.

“DON’T. TALK. ABOUT. HER. LIKE. THAT.” I said while gritting my teeth. The pencil I was holding broke with the pressure I was putting on it.

“Why are you getting angry? She’s just a s**t” I didn’t let Lucas finish what he wanted to say. I grabbed his collar and punched him right on the face. I was going to do it again when Aiden tackled me as Lucas just laughed, wiping of the blood that formed at the corner of his mouth.

“You don’t believe me, cousin? Ok. I will prove it to you. I will make her obey all my commands and make her fall for me once more. Then you will see her true self!” Lucas exclaimed. “Don’t worry dear cousin, I will not claim any rewards, as my reward will get under her pants.”

“Don’t you dare go near her! If you even breathe the same air as her, I will forget I’m related to you!” I spat out. “Now get out of my office before I do or say something, we all will regret.”

Without saying any other words, they left my room. Before reaching the elevator, however, Lucas turned around and said something to Zoya. I didn’t see her say anything just stared at their back for few moments before getting back to work.

I sat on my chair closing my eyes in a failed attempt to calm myself. How? How do I save Zoya from Lucas? Does she even want to be saved? I closed my eyes in frustration. I didn’t want to think anymore.

*Knock*

“Come in.”

“Mr. Mirzaya, it’s almost 1pm. Shall I serve you lunch?” The look on her face broke my heart. She looked ashamed and sad. I didn’t have the courage to say anything, so I just nodded. She left without saying anything more.
