Prev Chapter Next Chapter

After a night's rest, Bella was quite fresh. Her temperature has also subsided and now she was feeling

well. Hence, without waiting for Carson's advice, she left the hospital and went to her dorm.

Now she just wanted to find Claire and ask her how much she have made till now in the card. She now

can't wait to run away from this place, away from Henry, away from Jason.

She called up Claire only to find that she was busy in the meeting with her big boss, Henry Jackson.

Bella presumed that probably this meeting is regarding the big anniversary party which was coming up

in another 3 days.

In the meeting room, Claire was oblivion to the fact that when she received Bella's call, there was

someone who had his hawk eyes stuck towards her. Henry was keeping a continous check on Claire's

behavior but fortunately didn't find any abnormality in it.

He had come to know yesterday through his mobile updates that Bella had already earned 8 million 9

lakhs and few thousands of bucks in the card that was given by him. So according to the verbal

contract made by him, he is suppose to let her free and she has full rights to leave LAS DEUX or city A,

as she wished. But surely Henry had something else planned. He won't let her go. Never in this life.

As soon as the meeting ended, Henry left the company immediately. A black Maybach drove into

Bella's community, following the address and went to her dormitory.

Knock knock...

“Who is this?”

Henry heard a hoarse voice coming from inside the dorm. He didn't speak a word as he wanted to see

Bella's reaction after seeing him standing at her door step.

Knock knock...

The door opened,

"Who… .... You.... what are you.....?”

Said Bella with a shock written every where on her face. Henry smiled,

“Why can’t it be me?”

and He asked with a half-raised eyebrow. Bella wanted to ask something further but at the end he

didn’t say anything, and embarrassedly spoke again,

“Mr. Jackson Sir, what can I do for you?"

“You won’t invite me in for a cup of tea also?”

“There is no tea at home.”

“A glass of water is fine too."

“Ahhh hmmmmmm........”

Henry ignored Bella's reluctance and stepped into the house. After all it was his property.

"Please come in sir.... I... I'll get you some water. Pl... please have a seat."

Bella lowered her head. She was feeling awkward having Henry in her dormitory. She turned and

rushed towards the kitchen. But before she could enter the kitchen, She was suddenly grabbed by her

arm and pulled towards a strong embrace. Henry said in a low voice,

“No need. Go get your stuff and follow me.”

“Where are you going? I don’t need to get my stuff. I just cleaned up. I can go like this only."

As soon as he said that. Henry looked at Bella. She was wearing a simple double sized summer dress

which was covering each and every part of her body. He looked at her up to down and seemed to

smile,

“I meant, you are packing your luggage, complete luggage and coming with me as you won’t be living

here in the future."

“Won't be living here?”

Bella panicked, if she doesn’t live here, where will she live? She got scared. She has no place to go.

She still need this place for few more days, before she runs away.

"Yes, you won't be living here anymore."

Repeated Henry. Bella was still looking at his face with a shock. Henry came close to her, held her face

in his palms,

“LIVE WITH ME,”

Henry said softly. Bella suddenly froze in her place. She shook her head suspecting that there was a

problem with her ears.

“… President Jackson Sir, let me live here, it’s good. I am very comfortable here.”

Henry didn't seem to hear what she said just now. He looked at his watch. It's about to be lunch time in

another quarter hour.

"Go and start packing your stuff. You have half an hour to do so. I will come back within that time and

will take you away.”

After saying this, Henry glanced at Bella again and added a reminder,

“No matter what. Even if you have not packed your stuff... I am giving you just half an hour.”

Bella suddenly panicked. She can't live with Henry. He can't do that.

“President Jackson Sir, you are authoritarian here as this is your place but you are becoming arrogant

and unreasonable. I am living here very well, I don’t want to move from here."

'and I really don’t want to live with you.'

Bella wanted to say her last sentence loudly but restrained herself from doing so. Henry looked at her

and said calmly,

"Why don't you say what you really want to say, that you don't want to live with me!"

Bella's face paled suddenly when she heard this. Seeing her this reaction, Henry chuckled,

“It seems that I guessed it right.”

He started laughing, but within seconds his face suddenly changed, with a chill in his eyes, he ordered

Bella

“You have half an hour, there is no room for negotiation.”

“What the hell do you want from me Mr. Jackson sir?"

Bella clenched her fist tightly. What else does this person want from her?

“President Jackson Sir, look carefully! please look carefully at me....

What else is there in my body? What is it that It takes a big person like you to spend a lot of time on

me? You say! As long as you say it, I will give it to you!”

This person has inexplicably keep breaking into her life again and again.

“President Jackson Sir ! I am not the same Bella whom you knew back then. You have to understand

this!

I really can’t think of a reason why a big person like you , who can be awed by everyone, is ready to

take so much trouble to deal with me. What is it that is giving you so much interest in me?"

Saying this tears started falling from her eyes. She knows that she has been broken beyond repair.

Now what she wishes for is nothing but her freedom. She just wants to hand over the money to this

man and get her freedom back. She wants to breath and die peacefully.

She is already in mess with her complicated feelings for Jason and Henry. She had enough of all this.

She has learned in a hard way not to fall in love again now Henry Jackson, why are you messing up

with my feelings again?

You can scold me, you can beat me, you can despise me, you can mock me! But just let me be free

now. Don't keep breaking into my life inexplicably … I beg you! I am Just begging you, stop tossing me

around.

She hung her head, her voice was rough and suppressed, and suddenly she spoke with a chuckle,

“President Jackson Sir, think about it again. All I am left with is this smelly skinny broken piece of shit. If

you really doesn't mind this then Mr. Jackson sir, you can take it too but then leave me alone."

It doesn’t matter to her anymore as already her soul is dead. It was just a body left so what do you want

this broken body for?

Slowly raising her head, she looked at the opposite side where Henry was standing. She walked

towards him and and stood in front of Henry and started unbuttoning her clothes.

Henry felt a pain in his heart and he wanted to step forward to stop her but at the same moment their

gaze met and he could not take a step forward.

One by one, in front of his eyes, she gradually took out all her clothes revealing a very thin scared

body. She had already stopped crying. Now there was not even a tear in her eyes. She seemed to be

numb.

"Mr. Jackson Sir, take look carefully. You can take whatever interests you from my body. You can also

do whatever you like with me but I am just sorry for one thing that one of my kidney's is missing so I

can only offer you this incomplete body."

Henry's gaze kept looking at Bella's empty eyes. Not only could he not move his legs, but also his

eyes. When she said “missing a kidney”, his gaze paused, then moved down inch by inch and landed

on her left waist. He clenched his palm into a fist and looked away.

"Sir, please stop fooling around with me. Take everything you want, and after taking it away, don’t

bother me again. Please leave me alone.”

She closed her eyes numbly after saying this. He has, anyways, raped her so many times so It doesn’t

matter if he does again but atleast in the end just spare her.

Even though Bella's eyes were closed , she could still hear the sound of footsteps which were getting

closer and closer. Soon she could feel the man standing right in front of her. Even though her eyes

were closed she could still feel Henry forming a fist out of his palm and clenching his teeth together.

Suddenly she felt some weight over her shoulders but this is not what she was expecting. She then felt

something was covering her body, she trembled, opened her eyes, and silently glanced at the suit

jacket covering her body.

She raised her head again and looked at Henry , who was also looking at her. She couldn't understand

the emotions that she was seeing in his eyes. He always loved playing games with her so was he

planning something again. Its been more then 15 years and yet she is unable to understand him.

Something came in her mind. She just wanted to finish this for once and for all. She bit her lips and

quickly wrapped her hands around Henry's neck and coquettishly asked,

"President Jackson Sir, don't you want me?"

As she said this, her neck and face from ear to ear became red. Her heart was filled with indescribable

shame. Her lips were pouted but she felt numb.

Henry pupils suddenly contracted insignificantly. His adam's apple moved. He clearly felt changes in his

lower abdomen and the heat produced by Bella's touch. He wanted to take her right now. He couldn't

understand what black magic was there in Bella's body and touch. Since the time she was 16 years old

till now he knew that he can't control himself infront of her.

Irritated by himself, he said “Damn” in his heart, but calmly pulled Bella away from him. One by one he

fasten the jacket's buttons, and spoke softly,

"You have already wasted your fifteen minutes. Now you only have fifteen more minutes to pack your

luggage.”

Bella was stunned. She was little lost and confused now.

“Why… W....What do you want from me now? All I have left is this body and I am ready to give it you by

my own will then why? What else you want to do with me ... Why?"

She couldn’t think of anything else she could give him to lure him to leave her alone. What he wanted,

if it wasn’t for this body, then…what is it? She froze in the same place and was in a daze for another

fifteen minutes.

The man on the opposite side did not urge her.

“Time is up.”

After only saying these three words, Henry stretched out his hand and pulled Bella into his arms. In the

very next moment, his arms moved down to be tightly around Bella's waist, and strongly led her out of

the door.

Suddenly, Bella came out of her trance, with a paled face she started struggling,

“I won’t go, President Jackson, I won’t go. I can’t.... I live alone here, it’s good... really. Please....., I

don’t want to move out of this place.”

She refused to leave, but how could she be able to beat a man with such a strength? Her begging for

mercy failed so she started cursing again with anger,

“Henry Jackson! You bastard... You are arbitrary and coercive! You broke into my house, you are trying

to kidnap me from my house. You will be sentenced to jail... just wait and watch.."

Before she finished speaking, a mobile phone was handed over to her,

“Take it and call the police.”

“…....... ”

All tricks are used, begging for mercy, defiling herself and even yelling at him and threatening him but

still he is not angry… this man is terribly insensible and unreasonable.

“What the hell do you want to do?”

All the tricks were used, and none of them worked. Bella felt unprecedented sense of powerlessness

and finally bowed her head down and asked desperately in her rough voice, with the humbleness of

begging for mercy and infinite despair.

“Mr. Jackson Sir , I’m so tired. Please…”

'Please let me go.'

She was exhausted and desperate, as if she was locked in a small black room, and there was no light

around her. A feeling of loniless in which You didn’t even know what was around you in this room.

At this moment, Henry made her have such fears. She really didn't finish saying what she wanted to

say to Henry but the latter understood. He shook his head and said only one word,

“No.”

He was adamant to take Bella away with him. Henry didn't understand at this moment that if he

grasped the sand tightly , the sand won't stay in his hand but will slip even faster. May be understood

the truth but he subconsciously thought that Bella should belong only to him.

He dragged her out of the dormitory to his car.

“Let go, let go! You are hurting me!”

The woman held her back with one hand and tried to get rid of the man’s iron clamp with the other. The

man ignored her, and squeezed her into the rear seat and he hinself also got into the car.

Martin immediately trot up and sat in the driver’s seat. A partition rose between the front seat and the

back seat. The mechanical sound of “hum~” made by the rising partition made Bella panic more.

God knows where the strength came from, maybe she recovered or maybe Henry lowered his guard

but suddenly Bella pushed Henry, freed her hands and started patting on the riding partition.

"Martin... Martin don't do this. Please you put it down. What are you going to do with the riser, put it

down quickly…”

Martin was embarrassed, and he turned his head and glanced at the woman whose pupils were

shrinking with tension. That face was so white that everyone felt resigned and soft hearted but Martin

was equally cruel like his master. He carefully glanced at the man on the back seat, the man exuding

dark breath and anger all over his body ,

“Ahem…Miss Evans I can’t do anything Miss...."

The implication was clear that You are asking a wrong person.

“Miss Evans, sit down quickly, the partition board will hurt…”

Before she could speak further, Martin saw a hand pulling her back. And the partition completely

isolated the space between the front and rear seats within few seconds.

Bella shrank and panicked, wondering what she was about to face. She was really scared. She was

afraid of him.

"Why are you resisting me so much? Why is it so hard for you to except living with me?"

A deep voice slowly sounded in the quiet space of the carriage, very pleasing to the ears, but in Bella's

ears, it was like facing Satan’s inquiry.

Bella did not answer. She knows that this man was behaving very unreasonable. She didn't wanted to

argue with him. Just then another question came up,

"Were you planning to flee away after earning money from the wild hunt?"

Suddenly Bella was dripping in cold sweat. She was so nervous that she forgot everything.

“I want to hear the truth.”

“True, truth…This is the truth… there is nothing like that. I just want to stay in the dormitory.”

She was so nervous that she almost bit her tongue. She didn't know how to answer him She was

scared that he might have seen through her tricks. She was not sure about what Henry might do next.

“One.”

The cold voice sounded again.

Bella suddenly raised his head and looked at the handsome face of the man in front of her in disbelief.

Her lips were pale, and she spoke,

“I didn’t lie to you…”

“two.”

“it is true……”

In the next moment, her voice trying to defend herself came to an abrupt end as She saw his face. She

could feel a sharp piercing glance, falling straight on her face and she was scared,

“I re.... reeally……”

The cold voice interrupted her stammering excuse. Bella was quite. Henry's dark eyes were cold and

snowy,

"This is your last chance , Bella.”

Under this cold gaze, she has nowhere to escape. However, why did he look at her with such “you did

something wrong” eyes?

Did she do something wrong? What did she do wrong?

“I just want to stay alone.”

In the silence, she spoke slowly, her rough voice also concealing the choking and pain in her voice.

Hanging her head down, closing her eyes, she tried to push back the tears in her eyes and the pain in

her heart,

'Henry Jackson, I just want to have my freedom back. I just want to live in this world on my own will.

Have you ever experienced it? When you can't even breath by your own will?'

Yes, she admits that the method she used to earn the money was not right but she has no choice. This

world has left her with no choice. She just needs her freedom more then anything else in this world.

Just as Bella was still in her thoughts, a strong force suddenly pulled her over and she landed into the

man’s arms. In the next second, there was a dull pain in her jaw and she was forced to lift her chin

high. Before she could react, her lips were wet. The touch reminded her of what was happening.

She started to struggle, but it was useless. All her resistance was useless. She was severely restrained

by those strong hands. Something came in her mind and she opened her mouth and bit Henry's tongue

hard. She wanted him to feel some pain. But to her surprise he didn't feel anything as planned.

But there was a 'click' sound and Bella felt sharp pain in her jaw. It seemed as if her jaw was

dislocated. She gasped hard and held on Henry's shoulders hard. The pain went into her bones abs

spread all over her body. She felt weak and felt her whole body was hurting. She was dizzy.

She opened her eyes and saw this person kissing herself very affectionately. She felt upset. How could

he do it? After all most dislocating her jaw, how could he kiss her so affectionately?

Henry's handsome face, his tightly closed narrow and long phoenix eyes, and dark sword eyebrows

gently curled up. He was kissing her so intently. Bella just opened her eyes and looked at Henry kissing

her so intently. Tears slipped down her eyes.

Henry has always been very domineering. As far as she remembers, Henry has never accepted

rejection. How can she forget that! She felt so stupid. Earlier also Henry could do anything with her

body as he wished.

She still remember how he had bit her on her breast in the sea and then left her to drown. Again today,

he has dislocated her chin and was still kissing her so intently. How did he do it? Was he always so

insensitive towards her? He has seen him kissing and loving Cindy, it was totally different from what he

behaved with her always.

Yes Bella it was your fault. Even after knowing and understanding things, you loved this man, now you

suffer.

Her chin was paining badly, she became a doll in his arms and allowed him to take all the control and

dominate as he always did.

The moist and fiery lips pressed against each other. Henry was enjoying each and every second of this

kiss. He was so engrossed that he didn't even feel that their saliva was so much that it was dripping

down the corner of Bella's mouth. He was so engrossed in this deep and affectionate kiss. It was for

the first time in his life that he was so engrossed in kissing..

But for Bella it was a mental and physical torture. Tears slipped from her eyes into her lips. She tasted

the salty taste of her tears. Ofcourse even Henry must have tasted it, but this person didn’t mean to

stop at all.

She closed her eyes and refused to shed a tear again. Once again, even after being away from him for

so many years, this man taught her that her tears were worthless. Still in his eyes, her feelings were

worthless.

For Bella this kiss for nothing more then a physical and mental torture.But for Henry it was an inner

struggle. Since the moment he came to know that Bella has made 8 million bucks in his card, he was

crazy. He couldn't imagine what she would have done after giving him the money? The result was self-

evident, she will run away from him.

Even though he was too engrossed in this kiss, his inner voice was screaming loudly.

'It was too late, everything was too late. Sorry, Bella, I… I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU.

I’m sorry.. I can’t give your freedom anymore. I’m sorry, I know it's hurting you. I know I have hurted you

again but if this hurting can make you remember the pain and if this pain make you "fear me” and if

because of this "fear" you dare not think of leaving me anymore , Then you “fear” me… I will make sure

you fear me more and more.

I am sorry, it’s too late, everything is too late, and you can’t go anywhere anymore Bella!'

When the car stopped steadily at a.red light, his hand pushed her chin up again, and there was another

“crack” voice. His technique was very skillful and her chin was removed located. But what Bella felt was

just another pain.

She slightly opened her mouth to say something but just then,

“Shhh~Don’t talk, it will hurt.”

A soft voice rang in her ears,

“Stay quite for a while. The pain will subside itself in a while."

Bella understood that he had purposely dislocated then relocated her chin. If he wanted her to fear him

then he had achieved his goal years back. It's been more then 5 years, Bella is scared of him. She

fears him more then he could imagine.

Bella was starring at him, just then Henry softly caressed her cheeks and spoke softly,

"As long as you are good and obedient and as long as you don't want to run away from me, everything

will be fine.. Bella, Didn't you always dreamt of marrying me? As long as you are obedient, we will live

together forever. I will spend my entire life with you from now onwards. Just relax... okay?”

As if there was a cold wind blowing, the woman in the man’s arms shuddered and she got goose

bumps on her neck which was exposed outside in the air.

Her, once , empty eyes were now filled with deep fear. She bit her pale lower lips hard in order to

blocked the scream of fear that almost overflowed from her throat. But she couldn’t control the chill that

rose from her heart, and she trembled with fear in the man’s arms like a chaff!

On this day, when Henry realized that she wanted to run away, he finally realized that he had

completely fallen in love with the woman in his arms. When he realized that he could no longer leave

her and could not let her go, he used this method to keep her on his side. The stupid man is like a

kindergarten child, using the most stupid and wrong way to keep the woman in his arms. He knew that

this method will surely cause him pain in the future but at present he was ready to face anything as far

as he keeps Bella with him forever.
