Suddenly, the door knocked, grabbing her attention and she immediately covered her face with her hair so no one can't see the marks on her face. Two maids entered inside causing her to abruptly sit up.
"Good morning ma'am." she greeted, holding a glass of water in her hands along with a some medicines.
"Good morning" Zahra greeted back in her low voice, shielding her face with her hair.
The maid handed the after pill and the water to Zahra, which she took.
"Ma'am you've to take these pills whenever-"
"I got it" she answered before the maid could continue, it was so humiliating for her and gulped down the pill before passing the glass back to maid.
"These are your clothes for today" she pointed towards the maid who was behind her, holding a hanger in her hand, on which a dress was hung, "and the washroom is there, all the toiletries are present, after taking shower you'll be having your breakfast and ma'am you're not allowed to leave this room until sir calls you." she told.
"And sir has ordered you to come at the dining room, so please come fast as he doesn't like to wait. You've ten minutes" the maid informed and Zahra nodded her head in understanding then both maids left the room, before placing the clothes on the bed.
She immediately got up, she just have 10 minutes and she didn't want to be late.
She analysed the dress which the maid left, it looked so cheap and thrifty, even the maid's uniform was better than these clothes.
They were used clothes.
Tears formed in her eyes, so he wants to humiliate her like this, by giving her such ragged clothes. And somehow she felt humiliated, now she can't even decide what clothes she'll be wearing.
She blinked in her tears and then rushed towards the washroom, ignoring the pain between her legs. After taking a quick shower, she wore her clothes, getting out of the washroom and then applied concealer, which was placed on the dressing table, on her face to cover the marks and got outside of the room where a maid was already waiting for her and she guided her towards the dining room.
She reached the dining room and saw many maids and servants standing by the table, all of them well dressed in their uniform and here she looks like a beggar.
Irtaza wasn't present at the table and not finding him, she somehow felt relieved. Last night was enough for her to know who he is and how dangerous and abusive he could be.
She was extremely scared of him now that she founded uttering even a single word infront of him, a difficult task.
She moved towards the chair and was about to sit when a maid interrupted her.
"Ma'am you can't do anything without sir's permission." the maid told.
"Wha..tt?" she frowned lightly, not understanding what she meant.
"We're just following sir's order, you can sit only when he told you to do so." she remarked.
She nodded slightly and moved back, standing at her prior place.
She bit her cheek to stop from crying, now her every action will be guarded by him. She can't do anything without his permission and she knew he'll make sure of that.
She closed her eyes and breathed heavily to refrain herself from crying, she can't breakdown infront of everyone, although she knew she is already breaking apart.
She had a small heart, she was just like a little child because her parents had pampered her alot, only a single hard glare used to be enough to stop her heartbeat and now she has endured a huge amount of pain about which she never thought that one day she'll go through this much emotional and physical pain.
But she knew he hadn't even started yet. This is just the start of his punishment. He'll be true to his words, he'll cage her in every aspect.
She was sure of that.
And now she had no option but to face whatever he has saved in for her. There was no use of fighting anymore because Daniyal was in his captivity and even Irtaza listened to her last night and let Daniyal go and she was aware now she can never be united again with Daniyal so what's the use of fighting and running away from Irtaza, when eventually, he'll get her. She has learnt that.
All her life, now on will be controlled by him. This thought was breaking her.
"Good morning sir" the maid greeted as soon as Irtaza entered the dining room and settled himself on the head of table, her eyes suddenly widened, slightly.
He was here!
Last night's incidents begin to linger infront of her eyes making her more and more fearful. Everything about that night was horrible, her own body had betrayed her and she was feeling more and more embarrassed due to the reactions her body had given.
Flashback
Another bone crushing orgasm hit her, shaking her body tremendously. He was true to his words, her body was shivering so bad by now.
"Who do you belong to Zahra?" he asked, caressing her ribcage.
She was breathing heavily, her lips were bruised and quivering, her hair were sprawled all over the pillow, her arms bounded to the headboard, her body glimmering with sweat under the dim light of the room.
She knew she can't make him wait so before he once again make her orgasm again, she opened her mouth to answer him.
"Yo..uu" she croaked out, breathlessly, her lips cracky and bruised.
"Good" he smiled, devilishly and his head dipped at her neck, placing hickeys there, his stubble caressing her jawline.
"Say the words Zahra." he demanded and she gulped, breathing heavily.
"I lo...ve yo...u Ir...ta..za" she stuttered, her voice shaking.
"Repeat" he ordered and a new set of tears formed in her eyes.
He was making her repeat her own words, continuously. The lies she had told him.
"I lo..ve you....I lo...ve yo..uu..(hiccup)..I lo...ve yo...uu...(hiccup)...I lov..e you" she repeated, hiccupping while he continued to give her hickeys, his one hand at her core rubbing her down there, making her voice shaky and her body shuddering.
The pace of his finger increased and she could feel something building inside her.
Suddenly she screamed when another orgasm hit her, her chest heaving up and down when he started all the torture again.
This continued for some time when she came again, her limbs were shaking so bad then she stopped for a while.
"Continue!" he boomed, demanding her to continue what she was saying before and she immediately begin to repeat the words like a mantra.
"I love you! I love you! I love you!" she repeated.
He folded her legs in a one swift motion, settling himself at her entrance once again. He looked straight into her eyes, her lips repeating those words, she was aware she can't stop until he orders her to do so.
"Are you ready Zahra?" he asked, he always does that whenever he was about to enter her.
She nodded, ready to embrace what was about to come.
This was going to happen no matter what as she had already promised him.
And then he thrusted inside her making her breath hitched again. He continued to slam inside her and her body jerked upwards with his every powerful thrust.
He spread her legs wide to get more access inside her and then slammed his cock inside her powerfully, his pace increased and she once again could feel something building up inside her.
Before she could come, he got out of her breathing heavily.
"You can't come yet." He announced.
Flashback ends
"Sit" his deep gruff voice, got her brain out of those calamitous moments and she immediately moved towards the chair which was next to the head from right side and seated herself there.
He looked towards her making her nervous more than ever and she looked at him with widened eyes thinking she had done something wrong.
"Did I ask you to sit?" he asked, looking straight in her fearful eyes.
"Jee?" she asked in her low voice, confused what he meant.
(Yes?)
"Remember what I told you last night?"
'I will take every decision of your life.' His words suddenly lingered in her ears and she understood what he meant.
She stood up from the chair.
"Where should I sit?" she asked timidly.
"There in front of me." he pointed towards the chair opposite to him, the other side of the table.
She moved towards it and sat down there. She felt embarrassed that how he humiliated her infront of everyone when a sudden thought tugged at her mind.
She was running away with Daniyal, last night, despite knowing its her rukhsati today and if Irtaza hadn't caught her at time then it would have resulted in a permanent black spot on the reputation of her family. The media, famous business men, and many influential personalities were there. Only 6 to 7 servants are present her now who has witnessed her humiliation but last night, if everyone had got the news of bride's elopement then the whole family would have gotten humiliated in front of the whole world.
'Do I serve this?' she asked herself.
She was in a hurry, last night and she didn't think of the consequences, she was only caring about Daniyal and a chance which the nature has given her to get out of this forced marriage. She didn't think thoroughly but only believed Daniyal's words.
That was her mistake. Blind trust.
Her eyes moved on the varieties placed on the breakfast table. The whole table was filled with fruits, juices, jams, breads, pancakes, tea, coffee, eggs, greek yogurt, nuts, berries, puddings and what more.
"What would you like to eat Zahra?" he asked, grabbing her attention.
"Whatever you wish" she replied meekly, she knew she didn't has a say in it.
"Serve her chicken roast." he ordered the servant who immediately placed some chicken roast in her plate.
"This will be your meal from now on"
She looked towards her plate.
This was going to be her life from now on. She can't even decide what she can eat. She was at the verge of crying.
She cursed the day when she placed her footsteps into that haveli and begin to eat what was served to her.
But this was just a mere beginning.
.............................
After breakfast he left for his office and she was back in her room. She wan't allowed to leave the room and she didn't want to take any chance by stepping out of this room without his permission.
Last night was enough to see his worst side and now she can't even think of crossing him ever again.
She sighed. She was afraid what would happen next. She was afraid about her future.
For how long she'll have to spend her life in his imprisonment? She had no idea. Everything was crumbling.
She was completely left alone. No haveli member was allowed to visit his mansion until he permits. Her mother can't come nor Haseeb neither Dua and Haya. No one. And she has to face his wrath all alone.
She wondered what Daniyal is going through right now? Last night Irtaza was generous enough not to kill Daniyal but what unbearable pain Daniyal must be facing. She was clueless and extremely worried.
Closing her eyes, she slept, which gave her a short escape from the present calamities of her life.
.......
"Ma'am! Ma'am!" the maid jerked her body, waking her up from her sleep.
"Ma'am please get up!" the maid said hurriedly.
Danger bells begin to run in her ears as her heart begin to beat fast. Something bad happened.
"What! What happened?! I didn't do anything! I was just sleeping!" she said, panic jabbing her nerves.
"No ma'am, nothing happened. Sir has asked you to get ready and I've been waking you up since so long but you weren't waking up." the maid explained.
"Oh" she sighed in relief. Nothing bad happened.
"Here is your makeup artist and these are your clothes. Please get ready soon as you're already getting late. Sir is waiting for you." she informed and Zahra nodded in understanding then the maid left the room.
And then the make up artist begin her work.
She looked towards the sky from the window, it was evening. She had been sleeping for 5 to 6 hours. She had slept too much but still she was feeling sleepy.
She wondered where he was going to take her to.
