" How dare you dance with that man? How dare you?"The man asked the girl angrily, pinning her against a wall, holding her arms tightly.
His fingers were dug into her arms, leaving bruises.
" I was just ...", the girl said timidly. She was shivering seeing his anger filled eyes.
" What?? Have you forgotten your truth??"He asked her, pulling her closer to himself.
The girl was trembling badly due to his dominating aura. Her eyes were fixed on his chest, not daring to look in his eyes.
No one dared to look at him directly,then how can she, a normal girl, have the courage to look at him.
He holds her neck from back and makes her look into his eyes.
" If you have forgotten then let me remind you.....I have bought you .... Your soul, your heart, your body, your breath, your everything belongs to me and only me ... .And you let that bastard touch something which belongs to me ... .How dare you???"He asked her angrily.
" I...", the girl tried to explain herself but didn't have the courage to utter a single word in the presence of his dominating aura.
" You need a lesson so you never forget who you belong to", he said angrily, before smashing his lips on hers, kissing her roughly, punishing her.
