Kristin was in her bedroom alone in the night after the horrible villa attack. She was sitting on her bed deep in her thoughts when Edgar opened the door.

He hesitated in her presence as it was the first time he was all alone with her. He approached her gently.

"I know it's hard for you Kristin but trust me we will go away far from here" Edgar tried to satisfy her approaching to her.

She didn't responded to him. Edgar got near her and held her hand. She hesitated a bit. Edgar tried to make her feel comfortable.

Edgar got close to her neck and started licking her neck and breast.

"Edgar stop!!! Stop it Edgar!!!!" She told him in a soft voice.

"It's okay!!! You are my wife now" he started giving her neck kisses, rubbing his hands on her slim waist all the way to her hips. She wasn't enjoying it at all.

Those dead bodies, blood, violence, screams and about Farhan's behaviour. She had always loved him.

Edgar moved upwards to her chin kissing her when suddenly she pushed him back gently.

"Edgar please!!! Stop it"

He asked her annoyingly.

"What is it Kristin? It will make you feel relax and good. I can understand you are going through a lot but I am sorry for that" he answered sadly.

She took a long breath. She looked stranded.

She stood up and moved towards the window to avoid eye contact.

"It's okay!! If you don't want to have it tonight" Edgar comforted her approaching her from behind.

"Edgar..... I don't love you... You are wise and a good person but I love someone else" she confessed hesitatingly staring outside the window.

Edgar was shocked to hear that.

"Then what the fuck about the wedding and all that!!. Why didn't you tell me before if you weren't ready!!!!!!" He yelled at her.

She got frightened.

"Because my father wanted me to marry you just for his fucking business and greed!!!" She answered him crackingly.

Edgar was shocked but he never intended to hurt her.

"So, it's because of your father!!! How could...... I was a fool dreaming about you and our relation!!"

He realized her crying. He couldn't see his love crying.

"Don't cry!!! Just don't cry" he answered her trying to control his anger.

"I love someone else just like you love me!!! And I believe only he has right over my body and my soul" she answered him while crying.

"Who is he??" Edgar asked her curiously tightening his fingers over his palm.

"I can't tell you. If you want to kill me for that then so be it. But I won't answer that"
