Cursed Love

CH-5

Author's Pov

Her heart was shaken up with terror watching his scary eyes gazing at her like he wanted nothing but to swallow her alive, the time-to-time puffing out of smoke made him scarily intimidating which didn't fail to add to her dread. Gulping down she comforted her heart telling herself that she has to face him bravely. She needs to be strong.

Hissing under her breath she unhurriedly stood up on her cold ice feet letting his eyes rake all over her body which was damped with rain. She was wearing a sky-blue shirt along with a black skirt reaching her ankles. The shawl she had around her a while ago was nowhere to be seen as she had dropped it while running for her life.

Sebastian stayed silent slowly raising his hawk eyes to her pale face which had a few strands of her red hair touching it, Bella had her hair tied up in a messy bun but it got opened up as well because of her vigorous marathon. Bella's bloodshot blue eyes stared into his dominant gray ones as she let out a shaky breath.

"What is the meaning of all of this?" She questioned keeping her voice stern and steady which indeed impressed the odious lad sitting on the other side. Inhaling the cigar he again puffed out a good lump of smoke before answering her.

"Simple, sign these papers I will send you back to your house safe and sound." He said nonchalantly which earned a scoff filled with disbelief from Bella.

"And the papers are?" She already knew what he wants her to sign but she still tested her luck.

Sebastian threw the finished cigar on the dirty floor before standing up from the chair, he stepped over the cigar crushing it at a steady pace while fixating his glare on her. She gulped inaudibly watching the look in his eyes, he looked way more terrifying while standing up. She would hardly reach his bicep.

"To take back the case," He informed her.

"If I wanted to take back the case I wouldn't have filed it in the first place." Gathering her strength she mumbled out making his lips tilt up in a lopsided smile.

"Brave, aren't you?" He said taking unhurried steps towards her, the clacking sound that his shoes made with each step he took did nothing but to terrorized her. Now she knew why James said that he was worst than Smith Wayne. She didn't feel this threat while facing Smith Wayne.

"Bravery is good until you use it on the situations that had no place for it, and right now Bellaria," He paused halting right a step away from her staring down into her slightly red eyes.

"The situation doesn't demand your stubborn bravery, it demands obedience and smartness." He whispered the last sentence before slightly bowing his head to come face to face with her.

"Sign the papers," This time there was no wicked smile on his face, no amusement. Even his voice was filled with authority and warning. But Bella wasn't ready to give up, she shook her head glaring into his eyes.

"Never!" Sebastian clenched his jaw confining his eyes in the process, he was exploding inside because of her stubbornness but what raging him more was the fact that the woman standing in front of him stared right into his eyes.

At first, he was gleeful after seeing the tears and fear in her eyes for him, but the moment she stood up the terror and water just disappeared from her eyes, and the way she was staring into his eyes like he held no authority or any kind of control over her burnt his insides. He wasn't used to facing women with this kind of obstinate behavior.

Taking a deep breath he unlatched his eyes, "Let's not trouble each other anymore darling, sign the papers." He once again proposed trying to come out as calm as he could but Bellaria wasn't ready to give up, it was already hard for her to stand uptight without showing any kind of nervousness in her posture, she just wasn't ready to give up this easily.
