Chapter 7 Answer Me Or You Won't Be Going Out Alive

• (Myra’s POV)
• “You have brothers and four at that and you have never told me about them” I looked at her with a curious and questioning gaze. I was in utter disbelief. She has been hiding so much from me.
• She bit her upper lip again, “it’s just that they don’t like to be talked about and are very private about themselves, and I wanted to introduce you to them in person.”
• “Ohhh-kay, I get you but you should at least have given a heads up to me, you know.” I snorted at her. I may have said I understand but I ain't buying it. There must be some other reason.
• “Ok, sorry Ra-ra. I really should have done that earlier.”
• "Yes, you should have done so in the first place and not waited for my arrival. If I wouldn't have come here, when were you going to tell me, or were you never going to tell me about them?"
• She hung her head low, avoiding eye contact from me, being her docile self. She knows very well that I always gives in when she does do that.
• After her sudden revelation, my mind is in turmoil as I became nervous by the thought of her brothers. ‘But why am I feeling nervous? They are Nora’s brothers, so like her parents they must be kind people.’
• As my inner monologue was in full swing, we reached at one of the rooms as Nora opened the door for me, urging me to get inside, “Come on, tell me, do you like it?” she looked at me with her puppy doggy face.
• I looked at the room with awestruck eyes. The place was neat and elegant to say the least. The interior was made up of emerald green, off white and a slight bit of gold shades. The place reeked of class. I noticed my luggage and backpack was already sitting beside the pristine off white couch. ‘Can I even sit on that? Won’t it get dirty because it looks brand new?’
• “Why are you standing there like a pole? Come inside” Nora urged me again. I blinked several times, trying to process their hospitality. 'Spectacular is the word.'
• “Tell me, if you need anything and I'll be there in a zap. My room is just adjacent to yours. Rest well my Ra-ra” Nor instructed me.
• “But where are you going so early, we couldn’t even talk much. It’s not even ten yet.”
• She scratched her head again and replied, “I have early morning training” and beamed at me guiltily.
• “What kinda training, may I ask?”
• “No-nothing, just normal exercise and fitness training to keep myself healthy.”
• “Oh-kay, you too rest well. Goodnight Nor”
• She kissed me on my cheek and hugged me, “Goodnight to you to my dear Ra-ra, Sweet dreams and I'm really sorry for keeping things from you” and headed out.
• Now I am alone in the room, figuring out whether I should sit on the couch or not.
• The entire journey has taken a hefty toll on me so I decided to have a warm bath and call it a day.
• ________________________
• It’s two in the morning, as I woke up feeling thirsty. There was no water in the room and it was pretty late in the night so I didn’t call for anyone and headed out of the room. The place was dead silent at night as I came to the ground floor. No one, not even a mosquito was there.
• I took a water bottle and headed towards the fifth floor and entered one of the rooms. It was dark, and I was dead tired so I just lay on the bed and closed my eyes tiredly. But after a few seconds, I felt a presence behind me. my mind became alert and my senses were blowing off warning sign. But later on I figured out, ‘Ahh, this must be Nora’s room’ and let my guard down.
• A strong pair of hands grabbed my small of the waist as I was embraced from behind, something hard was hugging me ‘This isn’t Nora' as I panicked and tried to scream, one hand of the person behind me kept my mouth sealed and whispered into my ears, growling , “Who are you and what are you doing in my room?”
• I couldn’t see the person but his husky and masculine voice sent shivers down my spine. I tried to free myself but his grip was so strong that I could let myself free.
• In order to escape, I bit his hand and freed myself, getting off the bed still feeling hazy. My feet tangled up and I landed on the floor, head first. ‘Ahh, this sting.’
• Tilting my head up, I could see someone’s feet right in front of my irises. As I scanned from toe to head, I couldn’t see his face clearly. He was just wearing a shorts and nothing else, flexing his sturdy physic. I tried to get up on my own, when he said in his raspy voice, “who has sent you to my room, answer me within five seconds otherwise you won’t be going alive out of this room.”
