Evil Father, Please Be Gentle

"Have you thought that you will really marry him? Ha! Hahahahah!" Anna covered her ears with her both hands,

More than the pain of the wound given by the dagger, she was feeling pain from that crude and malicious laughter.

It is reminding her that she was a fool. Taunting her that she was so gullible that she trusted once again.

How could she? Why did she? She should have refused when he had told her that he loved her!

She should have closed the door of her room and the door of her heart when he had knocked on them for the first time with those mesmerising green eyes of his.

She should have locked her heart and threw the key far away so that she would have never faced the predicament she was in.. now all she could do was wait!

Wait for the death to come and embrace her so that she could get rid of the unwanted life. So that she could free everyone who had taken her for nothing but as a burden.

She would be free from all the pain she had suffered but none of them ever realized it. For them, she was nothing but a witch, a bad omen, a monster that had eaten her mother even before she could take birth.

But more than pain and hurt, her heart burnt with the desire to take revenge.

Revenge against the father who had discarded her. Revenge against the mother who had tormented her every night, revenge against the lover who had caressed her with so many promises of being with her till eternity only to kill her in the end.

"But do you think that he could do this without the help of your father! How naive!" The whisper burnt her again in the fire of her emotions. Even when she was dying, they could not let her have a bit of peace. They would continue to wound her, hurt her and humiliate her so that she could never rise again.

Not that it was possible with so many wounds on her body. She tried to open her eyes, trying to forget the pain but her body was not supporting her at all.

It was burning with pain and she had lost so much blood. She was attacked from behind not once but thrice and before she could turn and see who it was, someone had darkened the room as if they did not want to give her the satisfaction of knowing who it was that had taken their life.

They must be doing it as a precaution if she survived. But how would she?

The person stabbed her heart the moment she turned to him and then took out the dagger only to pierce her heart again.,

"Ahhh!" she winced and cried as she fell on the ground again when her killer started whispering in her ears as if he was singing sweet nothing in them.

But who was she? Was she a lover of her going to be husband or someone whom her mother had sent to get rid of her!

After all, her step mother always wanted her daughter to marry in her stead!

"Do you think your father did not know how your stepmother treated you? He just did not care!

You were nothing but a monster, a burden for him." the soft chuckled ended her words but it stung her further.

Oh how she wished death would come sooner so that she did not need to face all this!

Death would be her eternal peace and she was sure even hell would be a better place then where she had lived.

She tried to move away so that the girl could not whisper in her ears again. It was making her crazy when the shards of the vase that had fallen with her pierced her smooth skin and her white wedding gown filled with blood further.

And here she had thought that she had already spilled all of it.

She rolled her eyes but it pained her so damn much. Why was she still alive after getting pierced so many times!

She felt a strong pull in her ears and winced again when the girl pulled her in her laps like a baby.

She was still in her room and her wedding was just a few rooms away. The place should be filled with guests and servants but then why did no one come to save her or at least stop this crazy bitch now.

What was she even trying to achieve when she had already killed her!

"Let me go you crazy bi.." her cheek stung when she was slapped harshly.

The diamond on the finger of the woman left a strong mark on her cheeks.

"You are the bitch where! You are the one who was never needed. I am only doing a favour on you by killing you so that you do not need to suffer further." this time it was not a whisper but a vengeful spirit and god! She felt better.

So the woman hated her, that was why she was doing all this. Not because her father or lover had asked her.

"You are lying, my father.. And Charles is not involved!" Although she did not trust her words, she still played a foul game to find the truth but only an amused smile fell on her ears.

"Touch it. You know what it is right?" It was the seal of her family and only her father had the right to use it.

He had never shared the right with her mother or daughter too.

"And this… if not let me tell you. This is the seal of your father who had ordered me to do this and this is the ring you have given to your lover on your engagement.

I asked him for this ring specifically as a reward and you know what he had said…" i think i would not be able to hear, since my consciousness was fading.

Her voice was getting farther and farther..

"He said that he was going to throw it away anyway. He felt disgusted and nauseated whenever he looked at it."

"If so.. Then I wish I could kick his abdomen till he pukes all the blood off his body.." 'Would you believe that was the last words before I die!'
