Chapter 45

Amira Sultan p.o.v

" What's going on over here? " I look around the whole house. It's almost empty .

" Where did everyone go ??" I frown while walking to the kitchen .

BANG ! 

I close my ear kneeling down in fear … was it a gunshot ???

" AMIRA!" I turned to the voice of Osman , who was running toward me .

BANG !

" Osman '' relief washed over my face , where is everyone .

" Where the hell were you? " he snapped, worried .

" I was -" 

BANG !  

We both hide under the couch .

" Where is everyone , what's going on? " I panicked .

" We are under attack, " Osman informs .

Suddenly out of nowhere a man came with a gun" Ahh " I scream  , Osman shot the man on his chest gushing the blood out . His body fell near my toe with a loud thud .

I froze….. looking at his lifeless body .. 

" Sayra ,Ammi , Ibrahim, where is everyone Khalid? " I shouted in panic about them .

'' they are all safe " he pulled me down again..

" Khalid sent me to take you to a safe place, come '' he was about to hold my hand, I moved away .

" I will follow you , let's go " he stared at me for a second then nodded anyway .

Bang 

Bang 

Bang 

We were about to reach the car , Osman quickly sat in the driver seat , I looked at our house with teary eyes .

" Where is Khalid? '' I started looking everywhere just then my eyes landed on an injured man , fighting like a lion around a bunch of hyenas .

I don't know how I got so much courage but I ran his way… " AMIRA !" I heard Osman yell but I didn't care  , just a man about to shoot Khalid , I jumped on him , the bullet missed us , we both fell on the ground with a loud thud .

He looked astonished as our face was inches away " what are you doing " he was confused .

" Well I just saved your life '' I pulled his shirt missing another shot , we both hid behind the wall .

" You shouldn't have been here " I held the gun tight ready to attack.

His forehead is bleeding … 

" So do you … " I argued .

" Amir-" he bared his teeth in anger but thankfully he didn't have time to shout at me .

We both entered inside the house again , there is no way , we can go outside , the enemies have surrounded us .

" WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU GO WITH HIM " he shouted frustrated .

" I won't leave you alone "I whispered with teary eyes .

For a second we forget everything and look at each other .

Bang !

Khalid held my hand tightly dragging me. I have no idea where .

" Where are we going? " I whispered as he took me to the basement , where he punished me for the first time .

My eyes widened , I gasped, jerked my hand away " seriously Khalid seriously " I yelled on his face , He looked surprised and confused .

" Even in this cruel situation , you want to show me what a big bad Mafia you are by punishing me for not listening to you seriously " I couldn't believe his audacity .

" You - " he launched my way then curled his fist , then turned toward the wall wanting to bang his head .

" You idiot women , I didn't take you here to punish , there is a secret way out from here " he explained frustratedly holding my hand without wasting any time . My mouth formed O .

He took a heavy bag pack . It looks like he was always ready for this attack .

" Step back " he pushed slightly… I step back .

he pressed something in the plain wall and to blow my mind  suddenly the wall started to separate .

" Woah… " I froze, not believing my eyes .

The wall opens , showing the path almost looks like a cave .

" Come .. " again holding my hand , we  both started our journey only Allah knows where .

" Are we seriously in the middle of the jungle? " I looked around the greenery around me while Khalid set out a tent .

" Finally," Khalid whispered , I turned to see a small round-shaped tent set up by my smart husband .

I am feeling like I am in some movie ….

So exciting ….

" Go and take some rest , we will leave this place soon and don't come out till I call you out , there are wild animals around us so be careful " he threw a pack of biscuits my way I gulped as he  walked somewhere leaving me alone .

Other girls would have been scared but I know he won't leave me alone so I went inside trying to take some rest . We walked for hours to reach this so-called safe place .

I was about to doze off when I heard a manly scream .

" Did they come here too? " I mumbled to myself.

Panic stricken as Khalid was still outside .I got up and unzipped the tent , the warning of Khalid made me freeze in my spot .

" No Amira you have to do it " 

Hesitatingly I stuck my one leg out and moved it in a circle to see if there was any animal ready to attack me . When nothing happened I pushed my head out keeping the firm grip on the zipper and glanced around quickly.

I saw Khalid lying in the muddy grass groaning in pain .

" Khalid " I whispered, running toward him .

His eyes were closed , I gasped observing his face , his cheeks were swollen , his lower lip split open slightly and there was a cut near his chest .

I kneeled to glare at him .

" I am fine, " he whispered, his eyes closed .

How does he know I am in front of him? 

Your footsteps idiot…

I pressed my finger on his swollen cheeks, making him cry in pain ." Is my point clear or do I have to argue " 

He rolled his eyes then sat up .

" Bring me a water bottle , I need to clean my face " he said groggily .

" Yeah wait '' went inside the tent to bring a water bottle.




 

I went back to the tent and picked a water bottle then came out and gave it to him . He poured the water on his head then washed his face and hand .

Now his wet shirt is sticking into his well defined body and it's not a good sign for my fragile hormones .
