Next day (in the castle) :

Elliot is sitting curled up on the floor with no clothes. His eyes have turned red for crying too much. The red scratches and bite's marks are all over his body. He is trembling in fear while sobbing silently. It's been three days he didn't eat anything and that's why he has become so weak. He can barely stand now. The last night horror is still haunting him. Why it's always him? Did he cheat on Marco? Is he impure now? Will that devil come again to hunt him? Is he going to die? - so many questions and thoughts are killing him from inside.

While he is sobbing and blaming himself for everything a hand touches his shoulder scaring him. "Why are you crying?" a little boy asks. Elliot looks at him without answering anything. His whole body is paining so much and he is slowly bleeding from inside. "Have you seen my mom?" the kid asks again. Elliot again looks at him and this time he understands that this little boy is Saifu and Daniel's son. "She told me that she'll be back in the morning but... do you know where she is?" the boy asks.

Elliot couldn't control himself and hugs him. "I'm sorry my dear I'm so sorry." he cries. The innocent boy has no idea how to react to this. "Do you know her? Where is she?" he asks again and again. Elliot has no answer, he is just crying and apologizing to him. The kid sees the shawl on the other side of the floor and runs towards it breaking the hug. "This is my mom's shawl, mumma where are you?" he shouts. Elliot squeezes his eyes, he doesn't what to answer him. The boy stays silent for a moment then gives the shawl to Elliot. "Take it otherwise you'll get fever." he says innocently. He covers him with the shawl and steps back. Seeing this Elliot's heart melts, he immediately hugs him tightly. "I'm so sorry baby, I'm so sorry.." he says.

"Roger! what are you doing here?" Daniel enters in. Elliot's whole body starts shivering just by seeing him. The poor Roger immediately hides behind Elliot to save himself. "Didn't I told you to stay away from my matters?" Daniel grabs his hand. "I want my mumma.." Roger cries. Daniel slaps him and throws him outside. "She is dead! now get out of here." he shouts. Elliot gasps hearing the news. His eyes is about to shut due to weakness and so much torture. "No! I want to see my mom please.." Roger cries. Sam picks him in his arms and leaves.

Daniel grabs Elliot's right arm making him stand. He takes off the shawl revealing his naked skin. "You look better like this." he smirks. Elliot is shivering so much and is not able to breath properly. "See, my marks looks so good on you but there's something missing." Daniel says. He shoves Elliot on the bed and takes out a sharp blade. Elliot is laying on his belly struggling to breath. "Be a good slut and don't move otherwise it'll be more painful for you sweety!" Daniel warns. He takes that blade and starts writing on his back. "Ahh noo... leave me please nooo!!!" Elliot screams in pain but of course Daniel doesn't stop. He continues his torture with the blade. Elliot almost blacks out due to too much pain.

The blood flows all over on the bedsheet. "There you go." Daniel finally stops. He looks at the writing and laughs. 'Daniel's property!' is written on Elliot's back. "Uh, don't worry you'll be fine." he says licking the blood from his back. Elliot faints after a few seconds and Daniel leaves him like this.

In the mansion:

Marco is feeding his daughters because they are not eating anything and crying for Elliot. His health is better than before but he is not. His heart is crying for his El. He maybe a strong person but not without his partner. Marco haven't sleep properly since he came back to his senses. He just wants his Elliot, his love, his life, his everything.

"Just one last bite baby please." Marco says while feeding. "Neh.." Eleanor refuses to eat as well as Siya. "I promise you my angels, I'll bring back your mum soon trust me." Marco assures. "Mumma." Siya cries again. "Come here you cuties, let's play with some toys okay?" Lisa says. She gives them their favourite doll but both Siya and Eleanor throws it away and starts crying again. "Maa, I can't see them like this please do something." Marco says. "Stay strong beta, trust the almighty God. He'll definitely help us." Maya says back. Marco closes his eyes and takes a deep breath.
