Bound To The GoldVein Alpha

You know what Ryan? Kessari's voice cracked through the room like a whip, ready to strike anyone down. “f**k you, f**k all of you idiots who think this is right, and you too Lucas for keeping quite about his disgusting attitude for so long, And Lara…..” she let out a sharp humourless laugh. “f**k you for being such a hypocrite “ She calmed herself for a minute, hands on her waist, head looking up. Her chest rose and fell as she forced herself to breathe, hands planted firmly on her waist. She couldn't believe them, their non-chalance was sickening, and every time she glanced over at them her anger returned ten folds. How could any group of people be so vile and cruel? Ryan rolled his eyes like a little girl Owen looked away, trying his best to avoid eye contact. Eliza laughed a little, clearly this was a joke to her. Lucas stared daggers at Kessari, he looked at her like she was a problem child throwing a tantrum. Then Lara got up and spoke, as usual. She always had something to say and always at the worst possible time, it's almost like she didn't know how to read a room and just shut up . “You're a f*****g hypocrite too you know “, Lara shot back at her, her voice sharp “ We disgust you?? You caused this in the first place, remember? You brought her here knowing exactly what could happen. You literally abandoned her here for one year, so what gives you the audacity to stand before me, before us ,and look so disgusted??, YOU DON'T GET TO BE DISGUSTED “ Kessari turned slowly to face Lara, hands still on her waist but eyes fixed on Lara. Her expression didn't change, but something in her eyes did. She took one look at her and scoffed. Lara was in no place to speak to her like that. She was wrong and she knew that. Lara could have stopped, but she didn't “Sari, you're pathetic, it's why your life amounts to nothing, " she said, her voice dripping with venom. “You are a pathetic orphan who clings to anything with a beating heart just for affection”. She paused, a wicked smile formed on her lips as she did so, deliberate “I may be a hypocrite but at least my parents didn't kill themselves trying to get away from me” Suddenly there was a stillness in the room, The atmosphere shifted. There was one silent rule when it came to Kessari, it was simple, Don't mention her parents. Over the years no matter how heated arguments got in their family no one mentioned her parents. It was a boundary no one dared to cross simply out of fear. Fear of Kessari and what she became when her parents are mentioned. Kessari stepped closer, her eyes reddened and her palm balled in a fist. A wicked smile danced on her lips as she moved closer to Lara. She grabbed Lara by the collar of her Polo shirt, everyone shifted, suddenly the room became quiet, tense, there was a stiffness in the atmosphere, almost like a dark cloud hovered above them. They knew what Kessari was capable of. Lara shook as Kessari stared at her like a prey she wanted to devour, her palms were sweaty and her forehead was covered in sweat. Kessari leaned in close to Lara, and whispered to her “I don't care who you think you are , but this should be the last time you speak of my parents or Magdha in such manner with your vile lips. I may not blow your brains out now, She paused, a wicked smile growing on her lips as she did. “But Lord knows i want an opportunity to do, so don't give me one. Keep my parents and Magdha out of your filthy mouth, Are we clear?” She said, drawing back and staring straight into Lara's eyes. Lara said no words, her whole body shook, she was drowned in fear, she had seen Kessari take life like it was a common sport and something told her that Kessari meant every word of that threat. Sometimes she wondered how a human being could be so fierce, scary and beautiful all at once. Kessari still had Lara by the collar of her shirt. “Are we clear?” She said again silently, inching closer again to Lara. Lara nodded vigorously, beads of sweat dripping down her temple “Use your words , Are we clear??” “ Ye……ye…..yes, we're…..cle…..clear” Kessari finally let go of her shirt and Lara dropped to the ground, shaking like her life just flashed before her eyes. Kessari turned around and walked towards the table, took the brown travel bag that sat on the table and headed for the door, the silence and stiffness from earlier remained, As she walked towards the door she stopped in her tracks and turned to face them, staring straight at Lara. “Lara, I may be a pathetic orphan with attachment issues but at least I am not a pathetic housewife who is imprisoned in her own home by her own husband who will sleep with anything in a skirt just to have a reason to divorce his wife" She took one look at all of them, scoffed and as she walked out the door said “ Goodnight morherfuckers “ middle finger in their direction, slamming the door in their faces. She walked towards her jeep and placed the brown bag she took earlier in the backseat. She let out a breath and walked to the front seat. “ Magdha, are you alright? “ she said, stroking the old lady's hair. Magdalena looked up at her and smiled, her green eyes looked even more beautiful in the moonlight. “I have never been better Sari she said, placing a palm on her cheek. Sari's eyes welled with tears. She swallowed hard, trying to prevent the tears she “Let's go home, Sari, and thank you for coming back,” Magdha said, tears rolling down her cheeks. Kessari swallowed hard again, stroked Magdha's hair and nodded “Let's go home” she said as she walked to the driver's seat and started the car home. It was a long night for both of them. But little did they know, the night wasn't done with them and there were more surprises along the way. At least for one of them.
