My stomach was still not satisfied with 4 dosa's so I went to the kitchen and put the pan on stove... I was about to put on the fire but then I saw from my window, my husband going to the back side of the mansion.

Curiosity got the best out of me and I followed behind him without him noticing me by hiding at the corners and turns of the mansion...

He opened a wooden door and then there was a metal door I guess... He stood there doing something near the door and then it opened automatically... Why is there a door behind the mansion and that too hidden and safe gaurded?

Should I follow him or not? What if he wouldn't like it.... I veeeeerrryyyy well know the consequences...

He went inside and I went near the door standing a meter away from it, leaning onto the side wall... The door was about to close and I don't know what got into me...i threw my sandal hoping that it would stop aaand my guess was right! It had a sensor and it immediately opened again before it could close completely...

I peeped in to see no one was there in the narrow hall way which was illuminated by a row of light on the ceiling... It gave me creepy mental asylum vibes... I set my Chappal properly on the floor so that the door wouldn't close as there is an object...

I heard the resounding of my anklets and I immediately bent down and removed them, I kept them aside on the floor... I don't want to be caught by that maniac...

' Then why did u come idiot ' mocked my brain...

I walked through the narrow hall way and there were many room at the end of the hall... There was one specific door open to my right side and I followed the trail... There was light coming out from that room...

The door was partially open and I peeped in , only if I would have known that what I was going to see here would be horrible then I would have never come...

A man was seated with blood drenching down his body and his arms were amputated... I cringed seeing a man pulling out the nails from the nail plucker which had tissue adhered to it... I looked back at my husband who poured burning chemical on his hand and the man yelled and screamed in pain...

All the while I heard him saying

' I didn't do...I didn't do'

But then arjun poured acid on the man's face and after a few seconds all the face muscles eroded and partially his bony structures where visible...

I gulped down at seeing the horrendous acts... My eyes watered seeing the poor soul screaming in pain and suddenly he stopped..

no more sounds...

I shut my eyes...

Why why why

I'm going to be a Doctor who helps and pulls out every soul from pain but I just let that man die infront of me... Why why...

It was killing me internally and a sob came out of my mouth involuntarily..

I shut my mouth immediately and looked at arjun who was seeing me with a dark emotionless face...

Tears rolled out of my eyes on its own accord with the fear of the man standing in front of me...

HE IS NOT A HUMAN !

I sprinted immediately and ran away from that dreadful place.

I don't want to stay here anymore..

I indicated my men to clean up the mess and I went out of the room...

Something silvery got my attention at the side of the wall. I bent down and picked it up. Oh... It's my little wife's annoying anklets... I put them in my pant pocket and moved ahead.

What amazed me was that my highly secured door was still open only beacuse of my wife's slipper... I smiled looking at it... A big high tech metal door which costs a fortune was blocked by a small slipper...

I laughed at it... She sure is my little rat.....

I went inside the mansion and looked around for her... She was no where to be seen. I looked at the kitchen and all ground floor rooms and then I slowly went to her room... I guess I estimated too much from her... She can only hide in her room and no where else...

The door was locked. I took out my gun and shot the lock.

" lakshmi.....lakshmi " I called her slowly entering the room... She was not there in her room, nor in washroom. I looked at her balcony door which was open. I went out and looked at the bedsheets which were tied down to the ground.

Lakshmi hid inside her room and locked up herself... She was sweating with tension and fear of her husband.

She has to escape anyhow... She can't even imagine what would be her fate if she get caught by her husband...

She immediately tied down all the bedsheets into a rope and led them down from her balcony... All the while her hands were trembling reliving the situation again and again subconsciously...

She led down the rope and was about to get down but then realized that by the time she gets down, he might be there in the room and ask his gaurds to catch her. So she walked back into the closet and shut the door.

Arjun was enjoying chasing his little wife but as soon as he saw that there was rope down the balcony, he called his gaurds and told them to find her as she will be in the forest.

But he didn't know that lakshmi was sitting in the closet and was listening to everything carefully.

As soon as arjun exited her room, she waited for a couple of seconds and came out of her room. She peeped through the balcony grills and looked at her husband who was dispatching his men...

She took it as an opportunity and ran out of the house. She ran and ran and then reached the gates. She was about to push them but a sound stopped her, she turned back to see watchman very far...who was coming towards her. She pushed the gate but it didn't budge open...

She immediately ran inside the security room beside the gate and pressed all the buttons like a mad women. As soon as she heard the gates open, she ran towards the gate and the watchman was running towards her . She stepped out and ran lifting her saree up in one hand.

Oh the sweet little kitten is running away from the main gate... I have to appreciate her for her master plan...

I got a call from my watchman saying that 'ma'am was near the gate' and I went slowly towards the entrance of my estate... She can't go anywhere in the middle of nowhere...

I looked from afar to see her running into the security room and then came back, ran outside of the gates...

Where does she think those small feet of her can take her? I walked slowly and indicated my car driver to get the car... Within no time he was there and I sat back relaxing.

I told the driver to follow her and he did...

I could makeout her figure running on the silent roads with no one around . How can there be when this whole region belongs to me including the forests and these roads...

I indicated the driver to stop the car in front of her and he did. I saw relief in her eyes thinking that someone had come to rescue her.... Oh my poor wife. As soon as I stepped out she was shocked for a few seconds and started running to the other side of the road...

I ran behind her and within no seconds I was standing right behind her. I held her tightly around her waist and she screamed hitting my hands trying to run away from me...

I tightened my hold around her and she tried to claw my face. I held her hands in front with my other hand and pulled her along with me... She was wriggling and suddenly her pallu fell down. Her deep cleave edged by her milky bosoms were making it hard for me... I pulled her more into me in a sudden urge to feel her more...

She was yelling and moving not knowing how dangerous it can be for her... As soon as I spotted my car which was coming near us, I pulled her pallu and covered her. I pushed her inside the car and I sat down. She tried to open from the other side but it was already locked... Poor wife...

I moved towards her and she scooted more back... I pressed a button and the sepesration drew in, in between the driver and us.

She gasped and it added more fuel seeing her fear... her chest was heaving up and down with fear and deep breaths , her cheeks were pink with all the strands of her hair halfhazardly covering her face...

I held her hand and pulled her to me and she shrieked... She fell straight on my lap with her face on my thigh...

I laughed inwardly... I held her hair and tugged it back to see her face...

Lightly parted lips... Untouched...

I held her by back of her neck and pushed her towards me...

I slammed my lips on her and chewed her lower lip.... Soft... I held her hands back to prevent her trashing and chewed her lip more.... Sweet....

She parted in pain and I entered her mouth... It's an unknown addicting taste... I sucked with my tongue and stopped after a few seconds of my exploration knowing that she is about to faint...

We reached the mansion and I got out. I pulled her by her hand out of the car and she is already crying as if I have hurt her...

I left her in the hall

" don't run darling " I said with my back facing her... I know her all too well to not to know her next step.

" get me coffee " I said and went to my study...

I sat in my chair and stared at the dark wall infront of me in the dimly lit room with opaque windows shut.

She entered the room after few minutes and I could see her fragile form in the entrance of my study. She was shivering and the mug too was shaking along with her trembling hands...

She took baby steps and stood a meter away from the table and extended her hand and kept it at the corner of the table away from me... She went another meter back and I was amuzed by her actions... It's good to see her scared...

" I'm sorry I won't do it again..please"

She said whispering and whimpering, I wouldn't have heard if the room wasn't quite...

" come near and say " I told her and she looked at me with wide eyes... She turned away and I spoke

" u wouldn't like the consequences " .

She stopped and looked at me and then at the floor, she took her baby steps with fear emitting in each and every movement... She stood beside me and I turned my chair to face her..

" say what u were saying " I said slowly , looking at her hands that were crushing her saree...

" pleasee " was the only word that came out from her mouth and I could hear her wailing in her voice... She is controlling herself... Oh no no, I want her to open up her fear ,I need to see it...

I pulled her hand and she fell down stumbling on her own saree... Her small hands were on my thighs and her body was down on the floor... I held her hair and made her face me but she was closing her eyes in pain..

"you like spying on your husband ha?" I whispered leaning down near her ear... She moved her head side to side vigorously saying 'no'.

" then tell me what should I do now? " I asked her and she started sobbing.

"tsk...tsk...

Fine for now I would leave you

And you should know why darling...

Right?

As I have married you ,

You have to know it one day or another .

But that should be me to decide when!

Now that you have done a mistake you have to face the consequences

But alas...

You have already been battered so I will postpone it...

What do you think?

Aren't I good? " I said looking into her eyes which were changing emotions from one second to another...

" do you want it now?! " I yelled and she nodded a 'no' and I left her hair...

She moved back and left running out of my study...

I sighed and continued with my work.

It's been 2 weeks since it happened. I have been completed healed from the previous bruises that he gave me... but not from the mental trauma that i have faced...

Everyday I live with fear of him punching me for that 'postponed punishment' that he said...

I never stayed more than a minute in the same room as him... I serve him food and run away from there. I stay in my room the whole day as he is staying in mansion since 2 weeks...

My door dosen't have a lock now as he shot it 2 weeks back... It sends chill down my body thinking what would have happened if that bullet hit me.

I never slept properly all these days thinking that he might barge into my room any night and abuse me...

I woke up much before my alarm could ring... Ofc when did I even sleep to get up... My sleep flew away since that day because I was filled with regret from past one week... because I heard something which took away my left over senses.

I was passing through the study and the door was slightly open... I could hear sounds but I didn't want to take risk again... One time was more than enough for me. I peeped a little and was about to go away but my steps halted as soon as I heard something which took away the floor beneath me....

" boss, from my sources it had been confirmed that Anil desai had nothing to do with the fraud " the same man who handed arjun the acid bottle 2 weeks ago said and I shut my mouth with my hands...

" Okay, find the one who did it " arjun said in commanding tone without any guilt for killing a person mercilessly! How heartless and ruthless he can be?

It was an innocent soul that he accused and killed! Not even culprits deserve a death like that and here he just killed an innocent soul who begged him to listen but no!... he killed him slowly inflicting pain....

That had been another dreadful day and I couldn't sleep with guilt that I couldn't do anything for him...and I couldn't sleep with the horrendous acts of my husband that are on replay mode in my mind every second since then...

............

I started cooking lunch for him, making sure that he was nowhere around....

I heard sounds of conversation in the hall and I peeped from the kitchen .

There was a woman with a month old baby in her arms and crying infront of my husband.....
