The Virgin Curse[Completed]

Chapter 3 Umm.. A Friend

Chapter 3

Ummm… A Friend

Mirca’s heartbeat fastened as she saw a creeping figure entering her room from her windowsill from the narrow entrance that her mom had left open for sunlight to enter.

Slowly as the light reflects from the creature then reaching her eyes, she realized it was a snake.

Her palpitations thrice the normal rate as she recognized the same figure and just like déjà vu that had happened with Cole the scales of his body brightened and merging enough to form a body of a human.

OMG! She was hallucinating just like wedding day the face has turned into human just like she’d seen on her fateful wedding day but today he is a complete human wearing a dark cloak covering him from head to toe, a complete black shadow of a human figure only his pupils shone bright with twinkling scary red color.

Soon within the span of lightening other three joined in all cladded in same black cloak and red retina shining from caves of their faces. Slowly and steadily they marched towards Mirca with an intention that wasn’t oblivion to squeeze her to death like Cole.

Trembling she tried to shout but was choked as two dark hands with long fingers made their way to her throat.

With blurry eyes she settled in pain ready to bid final goodbye when in a swift motion the two hands were jerked off from her throat, then the heroic figure dressed in casual white button down shirt and a pair of skinny blue jeans all set to kick the other two with both his legs as he flew in the air land his both feet on two cloak cladded strangers. The third one tried to catch hold of him but he was way stronger than the snake headed as he pulled his hands that were trying to grip him and turned them to his back giving it a 360 degree twist.

While the heroic guy was busy kicking and blowing the other two, the snake headed though seething in pain marched towards her lifting her easily as if she weighed like a feather, the sides of her eyes blacking out with fear of dark future that lay ahead.

Would it be worst than what she was going through?

 Screaming loud she relaxes when she finds herself in the muscular arms with familiar fragrance of musk and some spice as he sat hugging her tight.

The blue eyes that shone back at her a bit of fear and tad of curiosity ‘Are you alright?’ he asks.

‘Oh! This was a dream.’ Mirca smiles as the thoughts cross her head making her feel silly.

Mirca smiles heartily, her dream man is simply surreal, she should start writing romantic novels, her imagination is just too hot and wild because the epitome of beauty in men well excuse her thoughts he is indeed handsome especially when he smiles his dimpled dent on his cheeks were simply lickable.

“You are concerned about me?” Mirca fakes as she flutters her eyelashes. God knows how she’s turned so bold all of a sudden?

‘Silly only because this is your dream!’ She mentally slapped herself at her nonsense.

Then as her eyes landed on the perfect face and oooh’ so delectable perfect pink lips, her thumb as if on autopilot reached to touch and feel them and more than that to find out if they were as soft as they appeared to be.

She hesitated for a moment scared about something and then again guiding herself ‘relax, its just a dream. He wont bite’ and soon she replaced her thumb with a pair of lips of her own.

She relaxes in the warmth and cuddle of strong arms that had saved her twice by now and drifts off to a much needed sleep.

'''''''''''

Mirca feels uncomfortable all of a sudden in her bed as the person with the musk cologne shifts to leave satisfied that she’s asleep now and safe too in the closed doors of her home.
"Please don't go." Mirca whispers in her sleep.
Days after that tragic incident after the sedatives were dropped out by the doctor, it is only today that she is feeling like she’s actually asleep, otherwise she was so traumatized by whole accident something that has been erased of her memories.
What she remembers is different than what she is been updated with!
She is quite sure that Cole purposely drove to the left side of that secluded land which was surrounded by the trees and there was no scope of speeding while the car was parked. She could actually feel his fingers on the bare back of her when she'd unzipped her bridal gown and then the kiss, the earthquake and that snake.
What confirms the fact that these are all nothing but her mere imaginations as diagnosed by the doctors is that how can the face of a snake be like that of a human.

Is it ever possible?
And a firm believer and follower of science and technology she has no scope of administering the fact to her intellect brain that they actually ARE her imaginations.
How desperately she wants to share the whole incident to someone who'd trust her or believe her but she cannot.
How can she expect someone else to trust her when she herself feels that they are part of her hallucinations?
Only part that she'd share with the doctors and her family as they had parked their cars and Cole was making up to her when a snake, kind of anaconda entered from the small hole under the car where brake and accelerator pedals are stationed and she went blank after that.

Hell! She’s been having nightmares of that creature.
The doctors seconded that there was a hole at the same area and that was due to the sudden banging of the car with the huge truck and then being banged to the whole huge tree.
They were also investigating why the airbags of the driver’s seat did not make it during the accident while Mirca was saved because the air bags of the passenger’s seat popped out at the right time, thus saving her from major fatalities, Cole not being that lucky.
Little did they know that she was the less fortunate one who had to survive without her love, true love throughout her life for no male can come in comparison with Cole.

Cole was just too perfect, be his looks, be his wholeheartedness, caring and even most understanding male species of the world. He never dominated her like her father did to her mother neither did he ever underestimate her or treat her with slightest of disrespect as Darwin, her own brother does to his girlfriends and sometimes to her too.
She sighs as she remembers how two guys had bullied her all her life till Cole went to propose her and they were into a relationship, since then Darwin always earned a smack on his back every time he tried to bully her or get on her nerves.
Cole would always say that that was a payback as Darwin would always smack him on his head whenever he'd gawk at her before they were together with Hots’ whenever she dressed or appeared to be one of the most beautiful, talented and intelligent girl in the world.
He was too good to be lost and too rare to be replaced!
Strangely but the way her body is reacting to this guy who happens to be her savior the other day when they met with an accident.
Her eyes jerk open with the sudden realization of the faint memories of the dreadful day which was supposed to be the best day of any girl's life; her wedding day.
'Didn’t he carry her away for a while and didn’t she hear him interacting with some other person' she thought to herself, her blotchy red eyes due to constant crying were now filled with fear and confusion.
"It’s okay I'll wait here, you go to sleep Leevie." the guy with the amazing scent who probably saved her the other day said words of care to her.
"Who are you?" Mirca asks.
"Umm.. Me" he scratches his hair wondering whether to speak or not finally he sighs as he says “Friend. I am your friend.”
Mirca likes the thought as she hears the wondrous words from the mouth of the most handsome male that she’d seen in her life as she mumbles “Friend. I like that” and goes to sleep with a firm belief that all this is a dream.

At least her dreams are bringing smiles to her and not the worst memories that is accompanied with her dear ones, her parents, uncles and aunts whose words filled with sympathy adds only to her miseries and slaps her with a reality of losing her love, her husband from her life.

And who is he?

Ummm.. A friend!!!

Mirca smiles faintly to her sleep.
