The Secret Of The Beauty In Black

After that fateful night, everything changed for Jennifer. Gone was the girl who used to smile and laugh along with others, cry in their pain and help them in their need. What remained was only an emotionless vessel who just had one aim in her life: Revenge. -- "No one can control me anymore!! I will live my life as per my wish." She said with hatred in her voice.  .... "Heh...Love is what? The best thing that happened to you?? Tsk..tsk..such a fool. Remember, love is just another name of destruction. The ones who believe in love are all fools. I was also one of them, but not now. I will never fall in love again. Also, don't come crying to me once you face a betrayal." .... "What will it take for you to accept me?"  Jennifer looked at the man as if he had grown two heads!! "Mister I have told this earlier too, I don't want to get into a relationship, so why not stop chasing after me?" .... "Please tell me what should I do to make you mine?" The man pleaded. Annoyed by his questions about the same thing again and again, Jennifer finally replied, "If you can defeat me in a fight, I will think about it."  She was quite confident that no one could defeat her. ------   "You lost...." "No, this can't be true right," murmured Jennifer. She was totally confused and shocked. Never did she think that 'he' would be able to defeat her.  "So what do you want?" She asked with confusion laced in her voice. "Are you sure you will fulfil my wish?" He smiled much to her displeasure. "Yes, I never back down on my words." She spoke back with gritted teeth, showing her displeasure, even though she knew this decision of hers might lead her into something complex. "Marry Me," He demanded. "Wait what?!! But you are gay right?" This was her immediate response to his demand. Who in their sane mind would want to marry a gay? That too with the man with whom she was previously in a fake relationship. He chuckled and slowly bent down near her ear "You will know when you will marry me" he whispered. "You..." ---- Torn between the battle of her brain and heart, Jennifer doesn't know what she should choose?  Should she listen to her brain which was constantly signalling her of the alert or should she follow her heart, which would pound erratically for some handsome 'devil'? Because of her traumatic past, Jennifer had sworn never to fall in love again. To never let her heart skip a beat again for someone. But she fails, terribly; when a certain dashing devil enters into her dark world. Will this devilishly handsome man break the walls of her heart?  Will he be able to help her past her traumas and her insecurities? .... But wait! Who the hell is this man? Well...for that stay tuned and continue to read the story!! *It's a slow burn book, hope you enjoy it.

REAL BLOOD RELATION

After passing through the laser ray's area, it changed back to it's activated mode. The dark black passage was about 600 metre long. It was divided into three parts. First was the laser ray, then came the sound deafening and at last was the hydrogen sulphide area. Each had a metallic door which needed password to enter the next part. Small illuminative lights were fixed on the ceiling of the passage. The red coloured light gave scary effects to the passage.

Many gangs or various groups tend to use less crueler methods than the Black Panther. Jennifer always believed in the phrase 'Never give a second chance to your enemy.' She had once experienced the pain of losing many Black Panther members and innocent citizens.

The second part of the passage had a sound of frequency 200 Hz which was enough for the humans to die. The doors to the parts were made in such a way that they did not allow the three death ways to mix up. They more of acted as insulators.

The third part was the most dangerous one. If given a choice to die between crueler or simpler death, one will always choose the later. Hydrogen Sulphide is the most life threatening gas, which if inhaled would cause a person to be comatose or die struggling for breath. Jennifer knew that a gas could easily escape through the slightest gap, hence she had made sure to let the gas be activated only when the second part was deactivated. The gas is let through small holes, more smaller than a pen's tip.

Only Jennifer knew the password to the house passageway. It was impossible for others to enter here including Jason. So whenever they wanted to go there, Jennifer would deactivate whole passageway. When she had got Leo's call, he had asked her to come to the laboratory. But again called her to inform her to come to the house due to some reason. So on the way she had deactivated the passage for Leo to enter. Once someone passed through it, it would again activate automatically as sensors were present on the metallic doors.

Looking at the passage in which he had stepped after a year, Jason remembered the time when it was made. Jennifer was not a fearful little rabbit who would want to hide itslef in its burrow when being hunted on. She was not at all afraid of her enemies but rather wanted to hide far away from only a single person. She had made this house in such a way that if one day that person would return then she could hide here. Jason knew that however she tried or whatever method she used, once the person comes to know about her being alive, he would surely hunt her down at any cost. He also knew that the house would not be able to keep her hidden for a long time, nor could the passage stop him from finding her. Jennifer also knew this fact, but she still made the house so that she could at least pacify her mind which was in a great turmoil. Mental satisfaction was also a way which could make a person live carefree life.

Jason sighed, he looked at the girl whom he had known for around 10 years. She was still very tough and strong even after the incident from 2 years. He liked the way she was now, not like she used to be-a timid rabbit.

'I want her to be like this, always with me, happy forever.' He smiled at his thought. He had always hidden his feelings from her so that she could overcome the fear and betrayal from 2 years and then he can finally make her his woman.

After the three of them passed through the last part of the passage, they were greeted with Leo's bewildered face. He was pacing back and forth in the hallway which was next to the passage.

"What is that you wanted to tell us Leo? And why are you here instead of Zavier? Where is Zavier?" Jennifer was first puzzled when Leo called her instead of Zavier.

"Oh, he is in the laboratory. I just happened to visit him there and thus he briefed me on the sample you had given him. He wanted to do some tests so he will be coming afterwards. I will first tell you the result of the test."

'Why does this guy always go through circles when answering?My baby's ears must have tired out from his bickering.' Nolan threw a dirty look at Leo.

As if he understood the reason for Nolan's look, Leo pouted and said, "This may be a little surprising as I was also intially surprised. But the results confirm that they have siblings relationship. That too real blood relation."
