Chapter 4
Chapter 4
I was extremely sleepy but sleep was nowhere to come. My eyes didn't close for a second as I saw the
city vanish and night erode. The buildings were nowhere to be seen and a creepy atmosphere had
emerged. There was no one to see, the road had gone bumpy and the atmosphere was becoming
misty.
I had always wished to spend some time in a beautiful farm without any anxiety, work and technology,
but I had always imagined beautiful green fields and crystal blue lakes, instead of this crappy road.
I looked at my surroundings to notice forest on both of my sides. And that was when the car came to a
halt.
I took a huge breath and opened my eyes.
I looked at my side to see that Adonis was nowhere to be seen. I looked out of the window to see his
muscled back. It looked like he was talking to two men. The muscles of his arm bulged perfectly as he
shifted his weight on his left foot and it made him look ten times more attractive than he already was. I
noticed how perfectly he stood with his back arched straight and perfect.
Just then he turned, facing towards me making it seem like the cliché movie scene where the hero
turns to glance at the heroin.
But was he the hero? No he was more like the villain.
I averted my eyes from him, not because I was angry at him but because I was scared of him. His eyes
made me weak, his huge frame like it hovered over me made me feel like I was crushed under the Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
mud, his deep voice made shivers run down my spine and his intimidating gaze was so powerful that it
held me captive.
He took long strides towards me and then opened the car door making me crush under my seat. I
looked in the front, pretending that I didn't know when he came, but soon it failed as his minty breathe
reached my ears and he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear.
"Look at me" he whispered.
And that was enough for me to move my gaze straight in his eyes. I instantly regretted that because my
body started shaking and water welled up in my eyes.
God why do I have to be so weak?
"Now listen, pretend like you are asleep and I don't want you to move your gaze anywhere except my
chest until I say so?" he commanded, with no emotion at all.
"Why ?" I asked and I was surprised at how weak my whisper voice.
His eyes turned a darker color at my sudden response and then suddenly he leaned closer to me, his
beautiful face just inches away from my lips.
I noticed that how his face was perfectly sculpted, his cheek bones were just perfect and his jaw stood
out perfectly. His face was hard and strict, his eyes motionless and empty and his face perfect with no
freckles.
The only sound that could be heard was our heavy breathing.
I felt my hands grip the seat from underneath me. His eyes were not normal, there were golden
sparkles roaming inside them and they were extremely powerful. My eyes became watery from staring
into his eyes.
But I wasn't going to retreat.
"I can go myself." I whispered.
And then suddenly he jerked back.
"Go on." He motioned me, with no emotion at all.
Reluctantly I stepped out of the car, to breathe in the misty air of the forest.
My eyes roamed in every corner until they landed on four shining green eyes.
I gasped in horror at what was in front of me. There were two grey wolfs staring straight at me. And
they were not the normal size, they were something extremely huge. Their eyes sparkled perfectly
under the moon and then their eyes met mine.
Their eyes met mine and then they snarled at me, their teeth grazing at me and took a step towards
me.
My body was shaking; I couldn't decipher what was happening so I took a step back.
And they took one close to me.
I kept on stepping behind, my body shaking with fear until my back collided with a wall, not a wall but
Adonis's muscled chest.
His strong arms wrapped around my sweaty and shaking figure and he easily lifted me in my arms. I
gripped on his shirt, hiding my face in his muscled chest not wanting to see how the wolves would
attack us.
But nothing happened: Adonis kept walking.
I turned my head to see the two wolves leading us and that was when I noticed the forest. The forest
was extremely dark. It was so soundless that even the soft susurration of the branches felt heavy in the
ears. The loam of the earth and the decomposing leaves made the atmosphere close and thick. The
darkness of the forest nurtured a sense of claustrophobia inside of me even though the woodland
seemed to stretch for unbroken miles.
I turn my head again in the chest of my kidnapper and close my eyes, trying to enjoy the light breeze
the wind had just started to create when suddenly he stops.
He carefully puts me down, while keeping a firm grip on my waist.
My eyes first land on the sky which has suddenly turned a Tuscany blue. This was magical. I couldn't
believe my eyes.
I notice that the wolves go behind the tree for which I was relieved.
And then I notice what was in my front.
The lake appeared as if by magic. It was in tea drop silver color and it was shaped liked a perfectly flat
disc of metal. No sound rang from the shimmering emptiness of space around it. Monastery quiet, it
was lined up with pine trees and the whiff of mint wafted up my nose. The idyllic scene took my breath
away and I gasped in amazement.
And then I heard a swooping voice in the sky. I look up to see a helicopter land in our direction.
