27- Heated Argument
'I was frightened of his reaction and he found out."
******
I was with Mrs Stellios, thankfully going as far as I could be from Sebastian. We were in the lounge and I felt relieved when he was no longer in sight.
'Are you okay, Eileen?" Mrs Stellios asked softly.
'Somehow." I trailed off, not knowing how I managed to survive with my demeanor in the first place, by doing everything he doesn't like.
'I came to know you tried to run, did he do something?" Mr Stellios asked, taking a seat as well, enhancing my heartbeats by his question.
'Something like?" I asked, trying to get an idea what he could possibly do in the future if he hadn't done it yet.
'Like hurting you, hitting you or worse torturing you?" He asked sternly. My heart skipped a beat, my eyes widened to think of the possibilities of what could happen.
'Or like killing anyone you love? Forcing you to do it?" He continued, asking what possible this demon could do but I only froze in fear.
My eyes popped in dismal, holding my dress, trembling to fathom.
'Albert, you are scaring the child. Stop." Mrs Stellios scolded him, poking his shoulder to stop giving me these terrible examples of his fiendish nature.
'But, There has to be something in one of them, what was it?" He shrugged, turning to me, slightly worried after my tensed reaction.
'None of it…" I managed to speak hesitantly, tightening my grip around my dress which staggered them.
'I.. didn't even know he could go.. This far… He didn't threaten me like this.. This time…" He used to threaten me to kill my parents in the beginning but stopped after knowing I am powerless.
But he didn't do anything of the malevolent options Mr Stellios gave thankfully and then again, if he hadn't done it with me then definitely with all those people who tried to run and if I infuriate him further, I might face the same consequences.
This thought alone scared me but he called me his exception at least.
'What? Really?" They both blinked in confusion, not expecting this.
'Yeah…" I trailed off, averting my gaze, biting the inside of my cheek.
'Are you sure, Dear?" Mrs Stellios asked and now I am not. Mama, Papa, Sofia, they all are fine and somehow I am too.
'So he did nothing?" Mr Stellios asked, arching a brow but I nodded timidly, I don't feel comfortable telling them now. Just a one time rough sex now sounds better than being tortured.
'He let it off as a warning… I guess…" I trailed off, lost in my unwanted thoughts. They were perplexed, clearly at how this monster could let me off but right now, I was too.
Maybe because I am his precious prey? I don't know.
As I was lost in my thoughts, leaving them in a state of daze which was broken when a dangerous resonance came, sucking my life out of me.
'Eileen!" By Sebastian's growl, My body froze. He was clearly infuriated. My body became numb when he yelled, stiffening my bones.
'I fucking warned you, didn't I!?" Snarling, Sebastian came, grabbing my arms, forcing me to stare back in his fatal ones, fuming with rage.
'W-What did I do?" Barely stammering, I began to lose my breath at his fury, startled immensely.
'You think you could hide those damn pills and I wouldn't find out, huh?" Hissing, he grabbed my jaws, utterly enraged at me.
My heart skipped a beat, I was going to get rid of them before he found out but didn't get my chance and now, I could feel my soul attempting to leave me in dread.
'S-Sebastian, listen, I- I-" I tried to speak when tears sprang in my eyes but his grip tightened on my arm, making me yelp in pain.
'I have enough of you, you have taken advantage of my leniency. If you think I won't do anything every time then you are so damn wrong, Eileen." He growled and was about to drag me with him but thankfully Mr and Mrs Stellios came, ripping me off from him.
But my very soul was submerged in apprehension. His anger was killing my spirits, it was hard to gather my strength.
'Enough, Sebastian. She is your wife, not a goddamn victim." Mr Stellios hissed, pushing him back but with tears brimming in my eyes, I shivered. Breathing sharply, feeling light-headed by his malicious gaze.
'No, She is going to regret her actions now." He snarled, trying to come closer.
"No, Sebastian, Don't." Mrs Stellios whispered, hiding me behind her should protectively.
"It's our matter. Don't come in between. I have enough of this woman." He snarled, sending a death-glare in my direction.
But, Losing my mind, I sniffed, having a glint of reassurance that they could save me and taking it as an opportunity, I took out my fury.
'I have enough of you too, you damn monster!" I yelled back as tears I was holding began to release, pointing my index finger in contempt at him.
'I would rather be infertile than to give birth to your children, you hear!?" I yelled, staggering everyone, mostly him at my daring attempt to increase the punishment he might have in store for me.
'I am sick of your fucking demeanor! I don't want to spend a second with you! Do whatever the hell you want, I am not afraid of you!" I am. In fact, he is the master of my fears.
Shouting, I began to cry, holding Mrs Stellios as support, holding her as I began to cry out loud, taking out the inner frustration, the pain I have collected inside.
'How dare you-" Hissing, Sebastian was about to come and grab me but I gasped, holding her tightly, shivering ferociously when he came near.
'Sebastian, stop." Mr Stellios held him, trying to pull him back but Sebastian's last string of forbearance was shattered by me.
'Get out of my way! I am going to seal those lips. This woman is testing me continuously! She had severed my mind. How dare you try to enter my mind!" Sebastian growled and was about to push his Father out of the way.
'You are the one who has afflicted my mind! You have shattered me! It's always you!" I growled back with tears glistening in his eyes.
'You-" Hissing, he almost grabbed me, horrifying me to no extent. Inducing a scar I won't be able to recover from.
With a hitched breath, the fear striked me with much force. Greater than the previous one, making my feet glue to the ground.
'Sebastian, no! Stop!" Mr Stellios tried to hold him, joined by other servants as he tried to reach out to me.
'I said, move! She's gonna pay for daring to rupture my mind. Can't hear you huh?! Your voice is not reaching me? Come here, I will show you what I hear." My heart literally stopped at his lethal enunciation.
I don't want to hear. I don't want to hear. I don't want to hear.
I couldn't move, I couldn't speak. His wrath crushed my ability to react. Nothing but whimpers and silent sobs escaped my lips as he tried to approach me with those burning hunting eyes, traumatizing me.
'What are you doing? Take her and go." Mr Stellios said strictly, trying to hold Sebastian back. It took five people to hold one outraged man. What a beast is he?
'Come, Eileen." Mrs Stellios called, grabbing me and taking me but I was too stunned. Rapid breaths, inaudible tears and a petrified heart.
'You're going to be sorry for your actions, Eileen. Don't give me more reasons to go harsher. Come here quietly." Sebastian threatened, my eyes widened in pure horror. The fierce fire in his eyes was a warning and I don't want to provide him further reason to devastate me.
'Eileen, come." Mrs Stellios called, dragging me away from his wrathful sight forcefully so I could regain my senses but quivering badly, I barely stuttered, 'Let me g-go back.. He.. He.."
'He can't do anything, Calm down." She whispered, taking me to a random room, locking the door and holding my shoulder, making me sit on the bed.
'N-No, He- he… Don't leave me, please." I tried to speak but the lump of terror didn't allow me to raise my voice.
'Eileen." Mrs Stellios called me sternly, staring dead into my eyes, enhancing my apprehension as I was holding my dress, crying softly to think about the consequences of disturbing his abyss.
'He's gonna come for me. Please save me…" I began to sob, holding her desperately, unable to bear this devilish atmosphere anymore.
'Please…" Crying, I could feel my skin crawling by the thoughts of his proximity and confronting his fury now.
Her gaze softened, hugging me, rubbing my back to soothe me as I kept holding onto her.
Sobbing my anguish out with the overwhelming terror creeping under my bones to think what would happen if Sebastian came…
