Chapter 2 Destiny?

  • Valerina's POV
  • Life wasn't good back at home either, I doubt if I can call it even a home.
  • I was a single daughter of a drug addict.
  • But at least I used to see and feel the sun.
  • I still remember the ugly night when I stepped out of my house and fell into his dark world or should I say dragged.
  • That night turned my world completely dark.
  • I was combing my hair, the only thing I love in my life is my hair. They are long and almost below my waist, I have a good height.
  • But I also like my amber eyes, I have dusky skin tone. My friends used to tell me that I glow golden when sunrays fall on my skin.
  • "Bitch!"
  • I heard a curse. Comb fell from my hand realising that I am going to get beaten now.
  • But I didn't do anything, why is he angry?
  • I rushed downstairs before he comes up.
  • I saw scattered glass bowl and wasted food.
  • "F_Father?"
  • He is not a father, he is a monster.
  • He just looks for a chance to hurt me.
  • "How many times have I told you that, I want my dinner hot and served when I enter the house..."
  • He yelled.
  • "You dumb fuck have only one thing to do but can't even do that.
  • Tears pierced my eyes. I am doing my best, I am trying to do everything perfectly but he always abuses me for small things.
  • He refused to let me go to the university, he locked me inside the house. He made me work day and night, still he thinks I am useless.
  • What kind of a father he is?
  • It's been two years, I haven't gone out.
  • He pulled out his belt and I stepped back.
  • "Please..."
  • I tried to run but he grabbed me by my hair and threw me on the floor.
  • I closed my eyes and waited for a lash but someone opened the door.
  • "Looks like I came at the wrong time..."
  • Charlie, his friend entered the house.
  • He is the dirtiest man I have ever met. Lust drips from his eyes and I can see how he looks at me. Sometimes he tries to touch me and I can't even tell my father. He won't believe me. He will do nothing but slutshame me.
  • "Today I am going to kill this bitch..."
  • His words shouldn't hurt me anymore but still it hurts.
  • What did I do wrong to deserve his hate?
  • "Why are you wasting such beauty?.."
  • Charlie said and I cringed.
  • "Give her to me..."
  • My eyes widened when he said that. I grabbed the piece of broken glass bowl.
  • "Not before you pay the amount I want..."
  • Tears slipped from my eyes when my own father said this. How can he do this to me?
  • "Why?..."
  • I stood up.
  • "Why do you hate me so much?"
  • I yelled and fell on the floor again when he slapped me.
  • "Don't you dare Raise your voice at me, Bitch."
  • He spat.
  • "You are not even my daughter... Your father is someone else, look at my colour and look at hers..."
  • He looked at Charlie.
  • "How can she be my daughter?"
  • "Agree!"
  • Charlie said with a smirk.
  • No matter what they say, I know my mother was a loyal wife. I am his daughter, is it my fault that my skin is dusky and he is fair.
  • "Give me my money and take her..."
  • He threw himself on the chair tirelessly.
  • "Fine, you greedy man... Take it!"
  • His friend said.
  • "Dad, please... Don't do this to me"
  • I pleaded but he ignored me.
  • "How can you do this? What is my fault?"
  • "Your colour is your fault..."
  • He spat hatefully.
  • "This golden colour of yours... These yellow eyes and your fucking black hair... Look at me and tell me from which angle do I look like your father?"
  • He has blonde hair, blue eyes and pale skin. My mother had similar features and I don't know why I am so different from them.
  • "Give me that pendant and go with Charlie..."
  • He ordered.
  • I clutched on my locket. This is the last thing which belongs to my mother. I won't give it to him.
  • "No!"
  • I stepped back.
  • He tried to snatch it but I ran away from him. Charlie tried to catch me but attacked him with broken glass and he got a few cuts.
  • "Fuck!"
  • Charlie tried to grab my throat but I pushed him away and dashed out of the main door.
  • But he did snatch my locket, It fell on the floor but I had to save myself.
  • It's all dark, I rushed towards the forest thinking they won't be able to find me.
  • We live in a small town which is closer to the forest, I know I am risking my life by entering the forest because there are so many myths about it but I am sure the monsters inside the forest will be better than monsters behind me.
  • "Harry, she is going inside the forest..."
  • I heard Charlie.
  • "So what? Catch her, I don't believe in the bullshit which these bloody villagers feed you..."
  • They didn't stop to chase me.
  • I am running barefoot and I can feel blood around my feet. I can only imagine how many wounds I have got.
  • It was final stroke when my toe hit the rock and I fell with the thud. My head banged on the tree trunk and blood dripped on my dress.
  • I cried out loud in pain. I can't even run because it's an edge of the hill.
  • "You stupid bitch..."
  • Charlie stepped towards me.
  • "I am going to fuck this attitude out of you..."
  • I crawled back when he walked towards me but he froze when something fell on ground with thud.
  • We both looked at the direction. It's was my father, more like it was his dead body.
  • His head got separated from his body and rolled at my feet.
  • "Ahhhh...."
  • I screamed on top of my lungs and pulled my feet away.
  • Charlie was terrified, he looked around like a scared rabbit. He jumped in fear when something passed by with the speed of light or may be someone, I could only see the shadow.
  • Charlie was about to run but then someone grabbed him and I screamed when I saw a huge man. His eyes were glowing red, his needle like fangs ripped Charlie's throat and he ended up just like my father.
  • I crawled back in fear and lost my balance.
  • I tried to grab something but it was too late, I fell off the cliff.
  • I thought may be it's the end of misery and closed my eyes to embrace death but no, destiny has different plans for me.
  • And my destiny is the man with red eyes and sharp fangs.
