NovelHook/The Darkness Of The Love/Chapter 1

The Darkness Of The Love Chapter 1

Nayra sat in a very spacious room, and the cold of that night made her hand embrace herself so that her body felt warm. Her eyes scanned every corner of the room that looked so horrible and strange. She heard footsteps approaching her, and the sound of shoes colliding with the marble floor echoed clearly in her ears. Nayra stared at the door, which was still closed. Her heart was beating with vigilance. Those steps were getting closer and closer. Suddenly the door opened, Nayra could hear the sound of it. A little light entered the room which was only highlighted by slightly dim lights as the door had just opened. A pair of feet in shiny psychedelic shoes were light black on the sparkling Nayra's black eyes. It was clear. Nayra bowed her head when someone stood at the door. Nayra stood up. She looked down and let part of her black hair framed her freezing face. She squeezed both of her hands. Now she could see the legs coming firmly towards her. Nayra didn't dare to look up or just raise her chin to see who was it. The footsteps stopped right in front of her. The scent of masculinity tickled her sense of smell. "Is that him?" Nayra muttered but didn't dare to look up at the man at all. "Put on these clothes, Miss." Said a man whose name she didn't know, he passed on a red and brown dress to Nayra. Nayra didn't take it right away. She spent some time observing the clothes. He spoke normally. Nayra picked up the clothes with a slightly trembling hand. "Thank you." Nayra stammered. Her mind was still full of questions and tormented by a growing fear. "My name is Kaisan, Miss. You can call me, Kai. I'm Mr. Dev's bodyguard." His voice was firm and... like a mature gentleman. He's not the guy? Nayra breathed a sigh of relief, and now she picked up some courage, she raised her face and looked at Kai. The man in front of her looked handsome and gallant. His body was half an inch taller than her. Thin hairs grew in his white and clean chin. His sturdy body was wrapped in a tight blue shirt. In any case, Nayra's eyes were suddenly paralyzed and did not blink. But Nayra realized that she was married and that her husband was the boss of the man in front of her. "Miss?" Kai's voice awakened Nayra's cursed mind. "Where is Mr. Dev?" Nayra dared herself to ask Kai and threw her gaze. "Mr. Dev is in his room. If he wants you, he will come here, and if he doesn't, don't dare yourself to see him in the room." "What the hell? He would come to see me only if he wants me? This is ridiculous! But it doesn't matter though, at least it's good for me." "Well, does it mean we will sleep separately?" Asked Nayra. "Yes, miss, just for a while." "Just for a while? Forever will be fine too. " "Please learn this, Miss." Kaisan gave a little notebook to Nayra. She immediately accepted it and opened the notebook with so many words in it. "What is this, sir?" "Just call me Kai!" Kai ordered. "Excuse me, what is this, Kai?" Asked Nayra. "This is a list of what you have to do at home, and you must obey. If you violates it, I don't know what Mr. Dev would do to you." Both Nayra's eyes were widened. "Is he that terrible?" Nayra muttered. Her mind began to think such nonsensical things if Dev who had become her husband got angry and mad at her-or even he could kill her. Isn't het someone who mentally will act recklessly? She thought. How terrible. Nayra trembled and imagined that if she did something wrong, her husband would be rude to her. "All right, Kai, I'll learn it." "Do you have anything else to ask?" Asked Kai. "Can I-can I still go to college?" "Yes, but you will not be as free as you used to be. You must go home on time, you can read it in your notebook." "Do you have anything else to ask?" "Nothing." Nayra shook her head gently. "If you need something, you can call the waiter by pressing the red button on the door." "All right, Kai, thank you." "You're welcome, Miss. I have to go." Nayra looked at Kai. He turned around and left the room. "If only my husband were Kai, had a well-built body, polite, and full of dignity. Even I have never met Dev." Nayra laid gloomily on the nightstand. * Kai went down the stairs, then he walked towards a corridor with a very bright light. He knocked on the door, then turning a doorknob, and his pace stopped in front of a workshop. "I'm sorry, Sir." Kai came in and closed the door. He walked over to the man who was sitting behind him with one leg raised above his knee. The man turned the chair around until he was facing Kai. That man was Devon, with a figure like Kai, and even his body was more robust and muscular. His face was as handsome as Kai. "Did you do what I said?" Asked Dev, he let go of the hand he used to put his jaw. "I did, sir." "What do you think of that girl?" Dev spread his folds and got up leaving his seat. "I think she's a good girl, Sir. She's very obedient." "How did you come to the conclusion so quickly that she is nice and obedient?" Dev took a few steps, then put his body on the workbench, stroked his pointed chin and digested the words from his loyal bodyguard. "I can see that in the way she spoke, Sir. Her eyes are completely different from both of her sister that I met at the time." "Do you want to see Miss Nayra in person?" "No, I'll see her after you told me some information about her. I'm sure she wanted to marry me just because she's tempted by my wealth. You know what you're going to do tomorrow, right? "I know, Sir, but.." "It's just one day!" Dev exclaimed. "You must remember, do not give her any money or facilities, unless I personally ask you to give it to her, do not spoil her, because I want to marry with a housewife, not a princess. You know that!" "Yes, Sir, I understand." "Well, now you can go and leave me alone!" Dev ordered Kai to say goodbye and left the room. "I really want to see how long she will stay here." Dev changed his position and sat back in his chair. His hand caught a picture in the drawer and his eyes turned sad as he looked at the lady's face painted in the picture. "No woman in the world loves me as much as she does. Where did you go?" Dev put the picture back and he leaned his back. He closed his eyes and sighed heavily.
