be in danger”

Ethan had been taking so good care of me and Chris, the wound on him was severe yet it was recovering super fast. Chris finally shifted out of my room and I finally got rid of all the poison from my body! Although the Question still remained why ethan kept insisting on the fact that I had been taking it everyday for last 3 months. It did bother me but I didn't pay much attention to it after something.

"Hi honey I am home!" Chris swinged the door open and entered as if he owned my personal space. I got irritated as usual and shouted at him, "get out pervert" to which he simply laughed.

"You look in a rather happy space aphie" chris said smiling yet I saw a serious tone following it, "should talk to you honestly? I do have some questions from you". I saw him sit at the end of my bed, our eyes locked and the tension in the atmosphere became heavier. To be honest I didn't forget what he had done to me last time but this time as long as he minds his lane I won't mention the incidence. It can risk to much of my past!

Finally I broke the silence by giving him the permission, "what is it chris? Go ahead". Chris fell in deal thought still looking at me, I could see the seriousness on his face and after thinking properly and prepping himself he finally spoke, "Brian will return after 2 days aphie and I didn't want to push this further till then". He paused and took a deep breath forcing himself too much to say his next words, "Aphie I...I'm... ummm *sigh* I am sorry okay"

He waited for a moment to see how I might react but I didn't at all because I knew whatever he was upto wasn't finished yet! Chris continued this time knowing very well I will not be speaking for something now, "the way I reacted that day was wrong although even you didn't at all handle the situation well but I'll present my apologies irrespective of that"

'Wait what!' I exclaimed at his statement, "Wait WHAT!? What exactly do you mean by that chris" I exclaimed furiously at his comment. My face was oozing rage and if I could I would kill this person right here right now! I controlled myself but my tongue couldn't control itself, "take that back you psychopathic jerk. Your apologies are not accepted how about you lick my feet and apologise maybe I'll consider then!" Honestly the first time I fought him I was very week so much that I couldn't even stand properly, but I was confident in myself since our last fight. The I inflicted on him! And my health right now was my confidence to go.

But I might have said enough, his eyes went red with anger I could tell he was restraining the beast inside him, the psychotic animal which I wouldn't want to face even if I was optimally healthy! He stared at straight in my eyes and said, "you slave!". My eyes went wide at his remark 'why would he say that!?how can he say that after what he had done!'

I was angry and I was hurt, lots of my past traumas triggered I couldn't help but react. I instantly moved towards him and slapped him hard across his, the sound of the clap resonated throughout the room and I shouted in fury, "you are a slave! A rabid dog enslaved by his master, Brian!". Chris was in utter shock of the slap and then my words did the reminder. He snapped back at me with his green eyes all black and the veins in his eyes popping out red.

Before I could know he grabbed my neck and before I could react my head banged on the headboard of the bed. He hovered on top of me standing on his knees with both his legs on either of my side. I tried to push him off me, use his weight against him, twist his hand, everything and anything. Nothing in my knowledge worked, his grip was getting tighter the more I resisted, I saw the same expressions in his eyes; the intent of murder, the bloodlust pouring out of them. I started struggling throwing my legs and hands around, scratching him, but nothing! His grip was so tight I could breathe, my vision went white as blood supply to my brain was also cut short.

All the struggles and all the confidence was in drain I saw no escape and I surrendered, "I'm sorry, spare my life please" I managed to say it with last of the strength I had remaining. Chris immediately let go of me and walked to the side table and rang the emergency bell. I was coughing and gasping for air my head was all fuzzy and heavy so I lay down heavy breathing. Ethan ran in through the door looking at the scene as I was gasping for air and chris stood beside me looking at Ethan.

Ethan ran to me asking chris with a bit irritated tone, "what did you do this time chris!? If you can't control yourself stay away from people!" Ethan looked at me and pulled me up holding my hand, "here aphie fold you legs and sit properly. Here drink some water" he had a bottle in his hand so he handed it to me. I drank it slowly as even gulping water was a bit painful. Ethan turned to chris and asked him to leave, "Go chris, as long as she is my patient you are not to meet her without my permission". I could feel the tension rise in between them but chris was rather obedient he quietly left the scene without even turning back.

"Better?", ethan asked me while rubbing my back so felt more calm. I nodded yes and handed him back his bottle, but he refused to take it, "keep it aphie I'm a bit of hygiene freak, I won't drink from it."

"I'm fine now ethan, thanks!" I smiled at him but he just never returns your smile back, I got pretty much used to this in past month. He got up from the stool he was sitting on and taking the bottle from my hand kept it on the side stand, "I hope you are properly following the schedule of diet and exercise, Its very necessary you do that for proper recovery. And make sure not to eat cold and non-nutritional food". I smiled at his remark it reminded me of samara, she always used to tell me to eat all my food when it was still hot. All the memories of her taking care of me returned to me and there were tears in my eyes.

"Also!", Ethan cut my nostalgia short by continuing, "better beware of chris! He is not a easy guy to be around. He specifically don't trust girls neither he respects them." I was puzzled by what he said so I asked him, "why only girls?".

"Don't ask me that, I won't answer" Ethan answered, "But I know one thing, he always says - its when devil couldn't reach everyone he created girls....ummm... well ignore that just remember every minute you spend with him your life will be in danger"
