Uncontrollable Fond

27)Dust and Dark.

"This is the end? Is it my fate? Is she dead? This can't be true... You can't leave me, Thora. Please"
Zayn was growling alone while tears pooled in his eyes.

He started at the deep sea and closed his eyes in fear when he was backing up, not to jump the guard's phone rang loudly making Zayn flinch a bit.
He picked the call.
"What are you doing? Throw Zayn! Thora is already thrown in the water, she is already dying let Zayn join her too!" Alexander was shouting on the phone.

Zayn took a deep and jumped into the sea. He swim deeper into the sea and searched for Thora.
Thora gradually opened her sights, she was semi-conscious. She saw a figure trying to get closer to her, it was Zayn who was trying to reach her hand.

'Everything in this world has a crack, that is where the light shines through, and he... Is the light that belongs to me'

Zayn somehow reached Thora and held her in his arms, he swam back to the top of the sea with Thora while Thora looked at him with weak eyes.

Zayn looked around and found a boat approaching them. Alexander's yacht was gone and a boat was being driven by an old man. Zayn gestured to the old man to save them. Zayn climbed the boat and sat down with Thora lying on his lap, her body was cold and she seemed lifeless.

"Thora! Get up... Open your eyes!" Zayn tapped her cheeks to wake her up.

"Please don't leave me... Thora.. Don't leave me" Zayn cried while he mumbled, caressing her cheeks. He saw her opening her eyelids, he rested his forehead on hers and signed in relaxation.

"Stubborn brat" Zayn heard her mutter. Zayn felt like his soul has returned to his body, he thought he lost her for a while.

"Thora..." He hugged her.

"Why didn't you go? I said you to go..." Thora asked in a shaky voice.

"We will speak later, for now, rest," Zayn said while Thora relieved her tension. He noticed her body is covered with wounds, he gulped and looked at her with teary eyes. Sighing he leaned back and closed his eyes.

Less than five hours they have reached an island, the old man gestured to Zayn to get down.
Zayn picked Thora in his arms in bridal style and stepped out of the boat.

"Parli Italiano? ( do you speak Italian?)" The old man asked.

"No ma-Posso campire... (No but I can understand)" Zayn replied.

"Okay!" The old man gestured to him while Zayn followed him.

The house was feeling abandoned, the furniture used in the house was dusty and the hallways were dark, it seemed like an Antiquated house.

"I do not live here, this is my next house" the aged man tried to speak with the English that he knows. Zayn nodded and smiled in understanding.
The old man guided him to a room, there was only a bed, a table, and a window. The old man opened the window letting the sun rays lit up the room.
He removed the sheet from the bed and the bed was comfy.
Zayn laid Thora on the bed while the old man said.

"Porterò l'essenziale da casa mia
(I will bring the essentials from my house)" The old man said while Zayn couldn't understand anything but he tried to judge with the old man's gestures.

"Do you have a first aid kit?" Zayn asked while the man nodded and locked the door before going downstairs.

Zayn looked at sleeping Thora, her body was badly injured, her dress was strained, Zayn had some wounds but they weren't deep like Thora's. Zayn sat on the bed near Thora and he moved strands of her hair from her face and pinned it behind her ear.

The old man arrived with a first aid kit which was covered with dust, Zayn thanked him before the old man leave. The old man left to his house to bring the essentials.

Zayn looked at Thora, she was sleeping peacefully, she has experienced a lot of pain and she needs to take a rest. Zayn couldn't understand why would she do such a thing, why would she submit herself to Alexander just to save him. Zayn didn't wake her up, he touched her leg and it was quite hot indicating that she has a mild fever now he understood why she is sleeping like this, she was fragile and sick.
He removed her heels and placed them on the floor. He sat on the bed near her.

He started treating the bleeding injuries in her legs and arms, her neck, his eyes fall on her cleavage, she was wounded everywhere. Zayn gulped before pulling the zip of her dress.
She was wearing a black lacy bra, he saw her belly it was full of blue and purple marks, he understood these marks were because of Alexander's guards.

His eyes got teary-eyed thinking everything that happened, he glanced at her belly. He leaned down and pecked the skin of her belly. Thora stirred in sleep when his wet lips caressed her skin.
He looked at her peaceful face and smiled, he likes the way she responds to his touch.

He hovered over her and started pampering her belly with kisses, he was lost in his daze, he didn't realize what he was doing, he got her back after so long period, he was satisfying his longings and the desires of him.

He slowly traveled upward, he gently kissed her sweet spot on her neck. He pampered kisses on her neck and jaw, he glanced at her plumpy lips and he was almost to taste them but!

Someone knocked at the door.
The sound snapped him out of his daze, he quickly scooted away from her with an alarmed face and he covered her body with the bedsheet.

The old man entered the room with some clothes for both of them and offered some food. He left as soon as he gave the essentials.

"What the fuck? The fuck? Fuck."
Zayn cursed grabbing his hair.
It was like someone has spelled a magical cast on him, he was pulled towards her like a strong magnetic force, he felt hallucinating for a moment.

He removed the bedsheet and zipped her dress after treating her wounds, she was sleeping heavily. Zayn sighed deeply and covered her with the bedsheet. He stood up grabbing a shirt and sweatpants, he glanced at her before leaving.

"No! I can't let this happen... She needs to stop, whatever she is doing to me. It's not good..."
He said and walked out of the room to take a shower.

He promised himself that he will stay away from Thora. Thora doesn't love him and even if she did, a man shouldn't touch a woman without her acceptance.
He can't touch her without her concern and also he doesn't want to get attached to anyone because he knows very well that Thora won't love him back and in the end, it will be only him who will be hurt but he can't deny the fact that she is making him feel different things and every time he keeps falling for her, Zayn decided to stay away from her as much as possible.

***

Thora woke up her body was feeling numb because of the pain, she looked around and found herself in a different atmosphere. Zayn was sitting on an armchair as soon as Thora woke up he rushed near her.

"Thora? Are you fine? How are you feeling?" He asked but Thora ignored his questions and asked.
"Why didn't you go to America? It's dangerous in here! Why did you come back? Are you out of your mind? Why don't you listen to Zayn? You are always not listening to me! You are bad" Her eyes got teary while Zayn waited for her to complete her blabberings.

"Shh... Firstly go take a shower come quick we have to treat your wounds. We will speak later okay?"
Zayn said cooing her.

"No! Wait-" Thora was cut off.

"What no? See how badly you are injured!" Zayn's eyes wandered on her body again and again.

"I'm fine, it's not that serious..."

"Yeah, that's why you were moaning in pain, I was holding you like a newborn baby.
You were in pain Thora and you are stupid to ignore this, it can be fatal." Zayn said.

"Am I stupid? You the one who is stupid! I have sent you with full safety, idiot! You are back to save me!" Thora spoke angrily.

"How can I leave you?" Zayn asked making Thora sigh.

"Go shower, can I help if you are okay with that?" Zayn asked concernedly.

"No... It's fine, I can manage." Thora nodded.
