"If you are that much interested in going to hell, let give you a taste before" i replied as i held her and forced her to lean on the tree nearby and held her sleeves. With one swift motion, it was torn. My whole body bled at my animalistic behavior. But I needed to tell her that I was not worth it. She deserves soone better.
Her eyes widened as she tried to cover herself with both hands. I felt heartbroken looking at her tearfilled eyes. But I was saving her from future humiliation and hardships she would bear to marry .
"How dare you?" she shouted as she slapped hard, i closed my eyes and accepted the slap without any will to move to save myself.
Another slap ca on the cheek with more ferocity.
"And here I thought that you were a nice person. You will respect and love !" ca her broken voice, breaking my heart and soul. I have never felt this guilty, this borked in all my life.
Did I overdid it? Have i hurted her so much? I just wanted to make her realize that the gem she was taking as, I was nothing but a beast, and she deserved soone much better.
How much ti had she slapped , I didn't even rember when her tears finally subsided and she turned and ran. I followed her as i could not let her go alone like that. But then..
"Wait" I called but she did not listen.
"Wait a minute, Scarlet." I called with more authority., but she did not pay heed at all.
"Damn this dumb girl is making crazy!" I ran a hand in my hair as I ran behind her and held her hand.
"That was a good experience., i must..'' I dragged her and hid behind the pillar when I heard the voice of a few n passing from here.
"Leave.." I covered her lips with my palm so that she did not attract their attention with her voice. She glared at but I ignored her fierce eyes as I waited for the passage to be cleared.
If they would see her this way then there would surely be a lot of rumors and she would lose her image and respect. I just wanted to frighten her. I never intended to affect her image because of . But she did not understand that all.
She bit my palm which was covering her lips, and was not ready to let go. But i was sure if i would move my hands away then she would shout again.
And then we both would be part of the endless rumors. I may lose my position as knight or be thrown out of the academy. But she.. Her image would be stained and then no would take her as a pure maiden. I would rather bleed to death than let that happen.
And the way she was trying her best to bite even when the blood was pouring out from my hands, for the first ti I was amused rather than being angry. Wasn't she about to kiss just a few minutes ago? Now she was so angry that she could not even be near for a minute!
That thought hurt .
Though I knew the effect of my action, it still hurts to know that her emotions change quickly.
"I am not forcing you to stand here with . But there are groups of students passing. If they will see you in this condition. They will talk about you." I tried to explain it to her but she continued to look at closely.
"Ha! You are not worried about but your image. You are worried that you will be thrown out of the academy if others co to know about it. What a selfish person you are! And here I thought that you are a kind and caring person.`` She continued to speak ill about , but she stopped and stayed there.
I could feel her tears that have started to stop now.
As if sensing my gaze on her, she looked back at .
"Do not worry, I will not tell anyone what happened here. Your job and image will not be affected." Did she think I was worried about it?! Not at all! I know what could be the consequences of touching her. But I still did it so that she could be saved from the consequences of loving .
"But that does not an that I have forgiven you." she added as she looked away.
A surge of anger and hatred filled my body at her words.
"You do not need to worry about . You can complain to anyone you want. I do not care about things like that. Nor do I care about being thrown out.`` I looked around as I replied to her. The sound of footsteps ceased and no more chatter could be heard too.
"The path is clear for now. Let escort you to your room before other students co this way." she snorted as she started walking while I followed her from behind.
Almost covering her, we walked towards her room but then I was sure there would be her maids who would misunderstand too.
"How many maids do you have?" She looked at with doubt.
"Do not think that you can do sothing with in my own room!"
"Your imagination has gone too wild. I am asking so that I can keep them busy while you enter." wasnt she taking as soone great just a few hours ago. Her way of looking at people changes way too easily.
Finally understanding my words, she bit her lips as she told, "only four." I nodded as we almost reached her door.
"Hide behind that curtain, I will knock on the door first." she nodded and went silently.
"Yes" called the maid who opened the door.
"Your mistress is calling all four of you to the lounge, she has fallen there."
"What." she asked with a shock as all four of them followed and I pointed at her.
