Chained to the prince of darkness by Lunasads (digital book reader .txt) 📕

"I'm sorry, princess. Tell me what you need-"

"Merda has a beautiful pink teddy bear, I want that," Sarah said without hesitation, her eyes brightening as she clasped her hands together and jumped with excitement. Brian nodded, licking his dry lips as he glanced at the excited face of his daughter. He eyed the mess she had managed to make and shrugged his shoulder before thinking he would clean it later after bringing her what she wants.

He still couldn't believe she was twenty, yet she was stubborn and adamant, probably he had spoiled her enough.

"I'll bring it to you tomorrow. I promise." Sarah's smile faded into a scowl as she shook her head.

"I WANT IT NOW!" She cried as tears stung her eyes. Brian sighed at her stubbornness and thought for a second before nodding.

"Alright, I'll leave you at Falcon's-"

"No, Dad. I'm a big girl now. I can manage to stay alone for an hour." Sarah raised her brow before placing her hands on her waist.

Brian thought for a second and nodded before grabbing his keys.

"Lock the door. I'll be back in a few."

Sarah thought she had somehow managed to convince her father, rather a delusional feeling caught her as she walked towards her room with an excited face. Her steps haltered and she hummed a tune.

Her stubbornness cost her something she never wished to lose.

***

Her breathing shortened and she shook her head frantically.

"T-tell me it's not true..." She whispered heavily.

"It cannot be..." Her soft voice echoed louder than any. Shock slowly turned into a raw sense of grief and morality and she heaved a shattered cry as her tears flooded the corner of her eyes and she violently shook her head.

"TELL ME YOU'RE NOT MY FATHER!"

All three heads turned towards her. A look of pain plastered over Falcon's face as he tried to step towards her when she raised her hand stopping him mid-way.

"Liar. That's what you are. How many things are you hiding from me? TELL ME!" She screamed, one betrayal was enough to set her soul on fire. She felt abandoned in dark, the world seemed to be nothing but a web of lies.

"Why?" She whispered hoarsely.

She couldn't believe that she had spent most of her life feeling guilty for things she never did. The countless times she had slept herself to sleep. The ravenous thoughts she had to end her life.

"Why?!" This time she screamed with all her might. She was angry, not at her father but at herself. The man who once called himself her father, she was angry at Falcon for betraying her.

Pathetic!

She felt dumb.

"Why did you do this to me? You left me when I was a child, you were dead to me, I cried myself to sleep countless nights, I spend my life as an orphan. B-but, you didn't even bother to look back!" She yelled at him. Her anger seemed to triple when she looked at Falcon.

"And you," she stood up from her position and walked towards Falcon. He looked shocked at her as his face did a one-eighty turn when her hands connected with his cheek.

"You are no one to me! You are such a disgrace to the word 'friend'! You betrayed me in the worst possible ways! I never thought that the person who was my best friend would stoop that low!" she screamed, hitting him on his broad muscular chest.

Falcon didn't make any move to stop her from hitting him, he deserved that. However, her little hands weren't doing any harm to him.

"I don't even want to breathe in the same air as you disgusting people," she whispered and without thinking turned on her heels and ran towards the door leading outside. Her feet carried her out of the room as she wiped her flowing tears with the back of her hands.

As she opened the door, she was yanked away by hands on her waist.

"Let me go, you bastard!" she yelled. But her cries were unheard. She was screaming, yelling ungrateful words.

Falcon dragged her away from the door. She struggled in his grip as he tried to move but the hands on her waist were making it difficult for her. He picked her up by her waist as her feets swept away from the floor. Falcon was stronger and she was too exhausted and weak to fight him. Falcon tightened his hold around her waist.

"Let me go, please." she pleaded when she thought nothing was going to work.

"No, you are not going anywhere. This is your life, accept it or wipe over the fact that your so-called normal life is gone," he said. There was no emotion in his voice yet his heart was betraying him. It was like he didn't remember that she once was her friend.

Sarah again thrashed in his hold. He passed through the same hallway by which she came down. He opened the doors to the large room. He further went into the room and threw her rashly on the bed. She bounced on the bed and she immediately crawled back. As she looked up, she saw Falcon exiting the room.

She ran towards him but it was too late, he had already exited the room. And to her dismay, the door was locked from outside. She banged on the door hard. After banging till she tired herself, she gave up. She slid down the door and brought her knees close to her chest and cried. Her tears flowed down like streams of her broken, bleeding heart. She cried until darkness consumed her.

On other side, Falcon placed his head on her door and sighed deeply before mumbling.
