Narika: The Ghost Bride-Chapter 59 - Fifty-Nine: Stucked In The Lion’s Den
Camille searched for him until she saw him outside, sitting on the hood of his car with a cigarette up his lips. He looked dangerously handsome. Adrian was a fine man no doubt, he just doesn’t put pride in the fact that his dad was a presidential candidate, and he’s out here in the open smoking, not that there was anyone out here anyway to record his act.
But he doesn’t care, and that attitude just had to stop. She stumped her way up to where he was before taking the cigarettes from his hands, and throwing it to the ground with her heel crushing it finally.
"What the fuck is wrong with you Camille?" He sounded pissed up, his hands moved to grab at her arm but not too tight to hurt her as she came closer to meet his face.
"I should be the one asking you Adrian, I was there with you and yet you couldn’t say a word. What was that in there babe?"
"I don’t need a doctor, im perfectly fine." He lied, just so he could stop her shouting at him as if he’s some kid. He didn’t want her angry at him, but at the same time he can’t do what she asks of him this time around.
Anyway, when has she being the one to call the shots in their relationship? It has always been him and right now he doesn’t understand why she’s making a fuse about him, not going back in there and being interrogated like a criminal.
"No you are not." She denied, coming closer to point at his brain. " He’s in there. That’s what you told me moments ago and now you are trying to lie your way out. Baby I’m trying to help you..."
"Well i don’t need your fucking help because there’s nothing to help about me Camille. Stop bitching out already, am having a headache." He yelled, pushing her away from him as he stood up from the hood of his car, only to meet black shoes that suddenly came into his view.
He looked up to see Cain, his father’s right hand man. What the fuck! His eyes showed fear and many more when he looked beyond Cain, to see his father’s car parked by the side.
"What’s wrong Adrian?" Camille asked, coming closer to him and observing his features until she acknowledge the man infront of them.
" Your father calls for you," Cain told him in an angry tone, not that it bothered Adrian but he’s going to make sure to let him mind the way he talks to him. Especially around Camille.
Camille’s face lightened up when she heard the man mention Adrian’s father. She had heard a lot about him but has not being able to meet him thanks to Adrian.
Adrian cussed under his breath when he realized what the situation was, he turned to face Camille taking his car key out and handing it over to her.
"I want to meet him." she poured out even before he could say anything.
"What?" Adrian was sure that he didn’t hear her well, but the amused look on Cain’s face when he heard what Camille said made him wonder if she has not gone crazy.
"Camille, stop being stubborn. This is not a good time." He warned her, hoping that she understood the warning in his tone. No one has ever met his father and comes back the same person they were. Camille already knew what kind of person he was, what has actually gotten into her?
When he saw that she wasn’t planning on changing her mind, his jaw clenched tightly and he refrained from urging her further. Maybe it’s high time she sees forself, who knows? She would leave him after this. That’s what his father wants anyway.
"If i were you i would start moving right now," Cain said one last time, making Camille look from him to Adrian. She mugged Cain before following Adrian to where the limousine was.
The closer they approached the car, Camille noticed the way all colors drained from Adrian’s face. He’s afraid of his father and that’s something bad. Like really bad.
What sort of a man is he for his son to fear him?
That’s her question, until the car door was opened by another guard that stood guard at the door and the strong stench of weed hit her nostrils, that she almost lost her standing but Cain was in time to grab her.
"Easy there sweetheart, I wouldn’t want my future daughter-in-law to hurt herself right Adrian?" Alex teased, making Camille pull away from Cain’s grip who had this lustful look on his face, before finally looking at the man of the moment.
"Father," Adrian bowed to him before sitting in front of him.
"Good evening Mr. Singh." Camille greeted as a respectful child she was, but when she got no reply from him rather than that dangerous glint in his eyes, that were stationed at his son.
It made her question what exactly was his problem with her boyfriend. She had termed him crazy, until he smirked before looking at her way...point of correction. Her breasts that were bouncing as the car started, and were displayed in the open neck gown that she’s wearing.
Sick fuck!
She cursed him instantly hoping that he didn’t hear that, maybe she should have listened to Adrian and left with his car instead of being undressed by his father’s lustful eyes.
"What is your name?" Alex asked her, as if he doesn’t actually know her name. Adrian was already feeling uncomfortable with this silly game of his, but Camille asked for this.
"Camille Ross." She answered boldly, making sure to look at him in the eyes so that he would know that he doesn’t scare her one bit.
After this, there was no form of conversation exchanged between them anymore. But Adrian still wasn’t comfortable even as arrived home.
Home..not Adrian’s penthouse. But their family house. The door opened and Alex walked out into the sitting room with Adrian following behind, and when she tried to do so, she was manhandled by Cain, the one who held her from falling.
"Let me go!" She tried to pull away from Cain’s grip, but was he strong? That was an understatement considering how built he was. Then the amount of security around here made her knew that she had willingly walked right into the lions den.
"Father please..." Adrian turned to face his father, who got angry the moment he heard him beg for her. A woman.
He slapped him right there in front of Camille, before grabbing him by his jaw " you beg for her?" He growled, this time bringing up his knife to his neck.
"No! Let him go you sick fuck!" Camille shouted, it seems as if she doesn’t really understand what sort of situation this is, and she added to their problem by calling Alex names.
"Father please, she’s Innocent." Adrian pleaded again, making Alex burst out into laughter making everyone present in the sitting room look at him with horror written on their faces.
A laughing Alex Singh is anything but normal.
"Innocent? Well let’s see about that." Alex said, pushing him back as two men grabbed him and pushed him to his knees, before turning to Cain who was holding Camille.
"Bring her here!"
