You are mine

chapter-23

"How exactly do I have to make it clear to you that you aren't leaving this place." He gritted out each word, dodging the question completely.

" I don't even know this place!" I cried out.

How could I live out here in the middle of nowhere.

For goodness' sake!

His anger directed over towards me as his eyes pierced through mine," you don't have to worry. You're safe here."

"Pfft," I shook my head at his inconsiderate manner, "I never stayed with a guy in my life. Neither do I want to!"

I hoped it could get through all the curtains that's been shading his mind.

"I spent night inside the same room as you in that apartment," he reminded me of the nights he forcefully made himself comfortable at my place," moreover I was there with you in that stupid cave of a place among those bastards."

The memory hit me hard. All the chills came back in fresh new waves and I started rubbing my arms to calm it down. My body woke up to all the weakness and chill. I felt hot and cold at the same time as forever had slowly been rising up my spine once again.

He noticed and rounded the bed.

But I was quick to stare up at him and he stopped where he was," That wasn't in my control. But this one is."

He snickered," that's where you're wrong," he leaned forward over the foot of the bed pressing his finger into his chest," I'm the one in control here."

His solid gaze held the unwavering promise. I visibly gulped scooting backward as my rare hit the fluffiness of the pillow.

" I won't stay with a guy a like you." I declared though my voice held weakness. No matter how much I wished, I couldn't muster up the courage," never."

His lips pressed together as he gritted his teeth," would you rather stay with some other guy?"

His eyes were narrowed down under the knitted eyebrows and his bangs hovered over them to support the idea.

What a piece of-

How could he possibly conclude such things about me after all this!

"You know what, I'm done." I got out of the bed, wincing at the pain that shot up from under my ribs making my head dizzy. I had my fingers on the temple, pressing it wake myself up so that I could get over it.

"What do you think you're doing?" He straightened up suspiciously godging my movements.

"Leaving this place, what else!" I shouted at him. So over it.

"Would you rather go out there and endanger your life than to stay here without creating a chaos?" Madness rushed out of his each word.

"Better them than you!"

What did he think he was. Ordering me around like that as if he could hold me here hostage.

I yelped as he suddenly appeared before me and held my upper arm painfully.

The last thing I needed right now was the reminder of how weak i had become after all these incidents. My body quickly reacted and i felt all the blood leaving veins where he had been clutching my arm.

"I don't like to repeat," his hawk like gaze slashed all the webs around my vision, able to reach to the bottom of my heart through them which started beating in a wild pace as if spellbound,"  you can't leave. You will stay here like a good little girl and do just as I say."
