Through the whole drive Laila kept quite with her head leaning on the window all curled up in a ball form watching the disappearance of the city

Looking out as they went further out of the city she could no longer the see the tall buildings of the city only trees surrounding them and less cars on the road

She had always despised the city and wanted to travel where she could only see nature but now in such a circumstance with a man she feared the most she wished she had never wished to travel out of the city 

The thought of what she once hoped for was being played like a thriller movie terrified her

she felt a few tears threatening to come out.

With her whole body turned away from him, Completely facing the outside, she kept her head low and counted silently from fifty backwards to control her tears

She definitely didn't want to anger him, and being a cry baby she was knew that will push him over the edge and not knowing what he will do next

she suddenly found interest in her worn out boots

After a few minutes she had succeeded in calming herself without Damien noticing her distress 

taking a look at him Laila shook her head sadly

She was blaming her self for her fate, that she was in this situation and that she had no parents

She always blamed herself of being an orphan, maybe her parents saw her as a big burden to be with, her foster parents always called her a burden an extra mouth to feed which does not contribute to anything in the house

Damien glanced at her, noticing for the first time that she was worn out.

But he told himself that he didn't care the minute they got to the cottage he was going to make her sorry for running away

Even though the thought of hurting her didn't sit very well with him, he had to do this to show his men he can handle his wife and to prove to his father that he is not a weakling

All of this guilt he was feeling was making him more angry and confused he couldn't understand how a very small girl could turn his emotions upside down

He drove at a very high speed, his hands holding the steering wheel very tight, his face stone cold, his jaw clicking with every breath he took while driving leaving the city behind

As they drove out of the city for hours in the road, Laila couldn't help but fall asleep.

The sobbing worn her out and the throbbing in her check and the pain her body experienced from falling to the ground was enough to make her physically exhausted.

While Laila was sleeping Damien couldn't help but admire her, she was a rare beauty and he knew that.

He knew that his Laila was innocent and her mesmerizing eyes showed only purity
He couldn't help but be attracted to her naivety, she was sleeping on the car with a man that just physically abused her

Most people don't usually sleep while am angry, they stay wide awake waiting on what's to come next but my rare beauty is here next to me sleeping soundly. Having no idea what I have planned for her once we reach the cottage.

Strangely enough when he was with her he felt at home, at peace

The feeling was new to him, he never felt home anywhere not with anyone

His parents never felt like home

Nothing ever felt like home to him until he met her and he didn't like the strange homely feeling he was getting

It was making him feel weak and weakness is one thing that is not allowed in his family

Damien drove for about 5hours before he arrived at the cottage, when they arrived it was already dark outside

He packed the car in front of the cottage, which was a double storey cottage with a marble front surrounding only by tress

The stopping of the car woke Laila up, and she was instantly aware that they have arrived at their destination

Damien got out of the car leaving Laila behind without any word, he unlocked the cottage and got inside without signalling for her

When Damien was inside the cottage, Laila thought of escaping and running towards the trees, but she thought back

This is Damien land, I wouldn't go that far and he would find me and kill me

Laila was terrified of what waiting for her in the cottage, she debating with herself about staying in the car and wait for Damien to come and get her but directly dismissed that thought she didn't want to anger Damien more
