Chapter 9 - Chapter 9

KD's P.O.V***

Darkness clung to the innermost layer of my eyes, ready to lick Richie up in his fury as he held the commoner.

"It's none of your business how I do my things!!!" Richie spoke; it sounded like an angel speaking. It got to a certain point that I started asking myself if he fell from heaven. Everything about him just looked really natural.

No facials, nothing nothing, and he just looked exactly like Seven Miles, while his lips resembled that of Beauty Dana.

Sincerely speaking, I have this cold and harsh inner hatred for him. I'm not always happy with whatever he's doing, and my main point of coming down to India is to steal his golden script that was titled ENCHANTED.

That script really worth zillions of rupees!!

"KD, I see what you're doing!!" Richie uttered, making me jerk away from my thoughts.

He glanced at the way I held the commoner tightly and gave me a simple look to leave her alone. I pretended as if I didn't understand the look and held the poor girl's hand tightly.

"KD, you're hurting her!!! Your fingers are piercing into her tender skin pores!!!" Richie uttered, trying not to sound harsh.

He's a very hot-tempered being who always tries his possible best not to show his anger because if he does, I am very certain no one will be able to hold him.

It's only Alberto that can hold him a little bit, just because they've been together for years.

Alberto is the person Seven Miles assigned to watch over Richie inevitably. Aside from that, he's also meant to act as a mentor.

"Sir Rich, he's hurting me!! My hands hurt a lot!!" the poor girl sobbed.

Richie's eyeballs started turning blue till they became as blue as a sea, that even the storm will turn the sea.

"KD, let go of her hands!!!" Richie said, trying not to shout, but the anger was visibly hovering in his voice.

I still wouldn't listen. Instead, I glanced at the creature I was holding hands with...

She was damn struggling her hands off my tight hold, with shaking lips. Those lips were so pure, red, and natural.

I found myself lost in her lips... that I forgot that Richie was standing before her.

"I think I know how to deal with you!!" Richie said.

Before I knew what was happening, Richie already pulled my shirt's collar up, and the next thing was a heavy punch landing on my lips.

I staggered backwards and touched my lips with the tip of my fingers. Lo and behold, blood stained my fingers.

"You dare lay your filthy hands on her after I've warned you not to??" Richie roared angrily.

"You aren't the boss of me, Richie!!!" I half yelled, feeling really angry.

"Good!!! Now you will see the boss of you!!!" Richie said, trying not to hurt me more, but I was really pushing him to the wall.

Before I knew it, the commoner was nowhere to be found. She already took to her heels the moment she saw the tension.

I pushed Richie away and ran after the commoner.

I ran as fast as I could, trying not to miss sight of her.

After some minutes, she ran into a garden filled with only roses.

She sat in the middle of the roses, sobbing profusely.

I approached her slowly, trying not to cause any harm to her again.

I squatted before her and made to touch her hand, but she shook my hand off.

"Stay away from me!!!" she shrieked and moved backward, crushing the beautiful roses.

"I'm sorry, okay??" I pleaded, but she wouldn't listen.

She sobbed and tried to stand up, but fell again. I think she twisted her ankle while running.

I stood up and carried her bridal style.

"Put me down, please!!!" she cried, but I wouldn't listen.

She beat my chest with her little fists, but I still wouldn't put her down.

She kept sobbing.

She sniffled and slowly calmed down.

I took her to a small hut situated at a corner in the garden.

I laid her gently on the bed and squatted before her.

"I'm sorry," I said again.

She turned her face to the wall, refusing to look at me.

"Please forgive me," I whispered.

She kept silent.

I noticed her ankle was swollen already.

I stood up and fetched a first aid box from a shelf.

I squatted before her again and brought out a bandage and ointment.

"Can I?" I asked for permission to touch her ankle.

She hesitated but nodded slowly.

I applied the ointment gently and wrapped the bandage around her ankle.

"Thank you," she whispered almost inaudibly.

I smiled and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"My name is KD," I said.

She still didn't look at me.

"What's your name?" I asked softly.

She hesitated before replying.

"Mirabel," she said.

"Nice name," I said and stood up.

I sat on a chair opposite the bed and kept staring at her.

She soon drifted to sleep.

I stared at her beautiful face and smiled.

"I think I'm falling for you," I whispered.
