Cursed by his Love (Completed)

Chapter 16

After a very long time, Jack and Michael entered the room where I was tied up in a chair. They were arguing about something.

I interrupted because I could not wait, I wanted to know, ‘Jack, why did you kill Lauren?’, I sneered at Jack.

He peered at me and did not reply.

‘I trusted you. But you killed your own mother?’, I hurled.

‘I too trusted her, but she was going to give all her shares to Jerry. This is politics, Nora. You won’t get it. But I loved you and trusted you’, he said this, approached me, and sniffed my neck.

I abruptly spit on his face.

He pulled my hair back and was holding it so hard, I was whining out of pain.

‘but you were f*****g a goon, you b***h’, he said in an ice-cold voice. Michael pulled out a gun and was pointing at my forehead.

‘If you killed Lauren and Jerry, then why did Super Lilly come into the picture?’, I asked him in confusion.

‘Ah, you want to hear the full story? hmm? I didn’t plan to kill Lauren, but I lost my temper though I am not a bad-tempered person. I almost begged her, not to give all the shares to Jerry, but she refused, we ended up in a big argument. I was so frustrated and took out a gun and shot Lauren and Jerry. I did not know what to do. But then you came to the front door of Lauren’s house, so I had to hit you. I really didn’t have a choice. Then I got rid of every evidence at the house, but I know the police would find me eventually. So, I made up a dye factory story and it was not hard for me to make you believe that and you told the police. You were a pawn and you played your role very well darling’, he sneered this and kissed my cheek.

I gave a disgusting look and snapped, ‘But why Super Lilly?’

‘umm… He was already into mafia work and people will easily believe if he murdered Lauren and Jerry for money. I don’t have any problem or personal vengeance with Super Lilly, I just framed him to distract the police.’

I was so devasted after hearing this. I killed Super Lilly for no reason. I was a f*****g pawn in Jack’s crime, unknowingly I helped Jack to conceal his crime and to kill Super Lilly. I will never forgive myself for doing this.

I felt so miserable and start shedding tears thinking of all the mistakes that I had done.

Jack looked me so deeply, ‘You look so pity when you cry. Just finish her before I change my mind’, Jack sneered.

I knew I was going to die that day. At that moment, I shut my eyes, was holding my breath and all my sins were flashing in my mind. Suddenly, I was startled by a gunshot.

Fuck! When I opened my eyes, the first person I saw was Frank. Frank was holding a gun and Michael was choking and he got a gunshot on his stomach. Jack was already gone, and I did not have any idea where Jack went.

Finally, Frank untied me from the chair, held my wrist, and pulled me to his car. He left Michael there who was still bleeding blood from his stomach and groaning in pain.

I did not cooperate with Frank. I could not help but shouted and cried for help. I did not want to go with him and stay as a slave in that house.

He seemed that he lost his temper long before. He could not control my tantrums, he slapped me. s**t. I did not have any more strength to fight against him.

…

Frank drove the car to the Green Valley house, he lifted me on his shoulders, put me on the bed, and cuffed my hands.

Soon he was on top of me. looking at me so coldly, he stiffened his jaw, started to strangle me, ‘You are not allowed to get out of this house’. I was struggling hard to breathe.

‘Got it? Hmm?’, he tightened his hands as he was strangling me.

‘hmm?’, he tightened even more until I could not breathe.

‘okay, okay’, I choked, and he stopped strangling me.

Then he lowered my pants and his pant too. I knew what was going to happen next. Thinking of the fact that I became a captive again, I started shedding tears and sniffled.

‘Stop crying’, he shouted at me, I stiffened my body.

Abruptly he turned me so as my face against the bed and start inserting into me. Out of desire, he went insane that night. He was playing me like a toy.

I knew there was no point in crying or begging him to stop. I gritted my teeth and bore all the pain that he had given me the whole night.

Even after he left, I was still lying on the bed as I could not move my numb thighs. My long black hair was messed and spread enough to cover my face on the bed.

The next day morning, Maya was standing next to the bed holding something for me to drink. It was a bowl of hot chicken soup. I felt so emotional and helpless after bearing all this and I needed someone to speak with. I hugged Maya and cried like a baby.

Maya put the bowl of soup aside and hugged me back, ‘Don’t cry, my child. You are such a brave girl. Don’t cry.’

‘No, I can’t’, I cried so badly.

‘I am now a toy for him. He can do whatever he wants’, I added.

‘No, my dear, you are wrong. You still did not understand Frank’

‘What could be his motive? To torture me, to kill me and to bury in this house, right?’

‘No baby, don’t cry, he is actually protecting you. There are many people outside who wants you to kill you because of Jason’s death. It is safer for you to stay here.’

‘How do you know that?’

‘Something’s, you will get from experience. I knew it after seeing Frank’s eye. He was so worried when you were gone yesterday. He is actually protecting you.’, Maya gave me a tender look.

‘I can’t believe that he is protecting me, he is treating me so badly’, I cried thinking of last night.

‘Listen, my child, men can sometimes be rough, but that doesn’t mean they hate you. Frank is afraid of losing you. Just drink this soup. Don’t think about anything’

‘Maya, can you please stay with me for some time?’

‘Sure, you drink this first’, she said this in a concerned tone.

I was not sure whether the fact that Maya told me was true or not, but I felt so warm.
