She Is Not Her

CHAPTER 8

AUSTIN'S POV:

I watched as she screamed in agony but the rage in me did not let me stop.

The way that bastard's name roll over her tongue, it disgusts me. All I wanted to do was drag him here and kill him in front of her just to remind her who she belongs to.

I dig my nails more into her skin and she screamed on the top of her lungs. Let's just say I know the methods how to cause pain and make someone beg for mercy in front of me.

By now I was able to feel the warm liquid covering my fingers. Blood was dripping on the sheets and soon she passed out. If you think that I am feeling guilty about my actions then you all are wrong. The only feeling I get now is satisfaction.

I am satisfied by punishing her for what she did and somewhere I am happy too.

I walk out of the room leaving her unconscious on the bed. This time I would not let Augustus call the doctor. When I whipped her I wanted her to heal at her own pace, naturally. I wanted her to endure the pain as long as she could because that would teach her a lesson.

But Auggie alway being the softie he is, went against my decision and called the doctor.

I thought that the punishment I gave Angel was enough to break her, cause as much as I knew her she would start shaking even when I shout at her. But now everything in her changed. She seems much stronger. No more the scared, naive girl I used to love.

After having a talk with Augustus that day we went to see Edward and the doctor said he won't be conscious anytime soon. As much as I think about the possibility of Andrea having a twin I don't remember her mentioning about anything like that.

She used to share everything with me but never mentioned about having a twin.

Can it be that the girl in my house is not Andrea, she is someone else.

I can get an answer only when Edward wakes up. It would be the day I will get to know the truth.

"What the fuck did you do now?", as usual, Auggie walks into my room without knocking and barks at me.

"I tried", I said calmly now washing the blood off from my hand. "I tried my best to be good with her. I did as you said. But she is fucking stubborn", I said while wiping my hand with a towel. Augustus was looking at my hands, with a look of disgust on his face. "She still has the nerve to take his name in front of me"

"Austin! you are not thinking straight. Use your fucking brain and for once keep aside that ego of yours. It's possible that what she is saying is true. It's possible that she is innocent. It is possible that she is not Andrea"

"I don't fucking care whether she is Andrea of not. I fucking wan...", I don't complete my own sentence as soon as the words register in my mind.

Even Augustus is staring at me with wide eyes. Can it be?

"Augustus please leave", I say and turn my back to him that he is not able to see me.

"Aussie I.."

"Please, I just need some time", I whisper and turn only when I hear the door being closed.

I have been waiting for Andrea since three years. I have been searching for her like a mad man. But nothing lead to her. I was devasted without her.

I won't say that I didn't get engaged in any physical relationship. Yes, I did. But it was truly and only physical. I never felt anything other than physical attraction towards any other girl. I never felt even the slightest of what I used to feel with Andrea.
