She hugged him with all her might, like her life depends on it. Her head pressed against his chest as her arms wrapped around his torso firmly.

Alex was shocked and unknowingly he wrapped his large bulky arms around her, completely engulfing her in a bear hug. Inhaling deeply he let out a small sigh of bliss. Her rosy scent always calms him and makes him feel weird things.

Alizey felt safe and warm in his embrace his masculine scent making her mind hazy, after couple of minutes when she realized what she's doing she immediately jerked away from him as his touch burned her. Mumbling a soft "sorry" she dashed to her room.

Alex was about to yank her back in his embrace but restrained himself. He watched as her hips sway when she marched up the stairs. Gulping he tore his gaze away from her plump seducing ass and marched into the kitchen to eat something.

He didn't know that she's this much scared of being alone in the house, and he couldn't forget her horrified expression when he scared her by speaking from behind her.

Smiling to his own self he searched the whole kitchen just to eat anything but Alas! It was empty like dessert. Then he wondered how Alizey would've eaten. He had locked her in the house, and he unintentionally starved her.

Just by thinking about it he felt a bit bad for doing this to her.

Alizey was trying to sleep but due to empty stomach her sleep refused to visit her. She was tossing and turning when she heard a loud knock on her door.

She immediately wrapped her hijab around her head. During that panic scenario she wasn't wearing hijab because she thought she's alone with ghosts but now she knows he's hear.

She was about to open the door but stopped when she realized what he did four days back. She really didn't want to talk to him, so she simply ignored him. The knocks got louder and louder, but she stood her ground.

"I know you're awake! Open up!" Bang bang bang. Alizey glared at the door as if her glare can penetrate through the door to him.

His banging got so intense that she thought the door will come out of its hinges. "OPEN THE DAMN DOOR!" BANG BANG BAN- and she opened the door making him almost fall face first on the floor.

Alizey immediately moved out of the room before he could yank her out. "WERE YOU FUCKING DEAF?" Alex yelled loudly in complete annoyance. Alizey ignored him completely.

She stood there silent as night, as Alex glared at her. When he felt like she's really pretending to be deaf, he moved towards the lounge and Alizey silently followed.

"Eat something." Alex said as he sat on the sofa in front of the large Led and two large pizzas with cold drinks was placed on the table.

A five hundred volt smile was about to creep up her face, but she controlled it and sat a bit away from him and in just few seconds her mouth was full, and she was chewing like a crazy starved baby.

She didn't care if Alex was witnessing her pure love for food. It didn't matter to her because food is her first priority.

She poured her favorite cold drink and ate to her hearts content. She didn't realise how much she missed pizza in all these days.

From her peripheral vision she saw Alex pouring a drink for himself not just any drink it was alcohol. Alizey immediately stood up and moved out from their hurriedly. She can feel his eyes on her, but she didn't stop.

***

Days were passing like a robotic machine and Alizey would do all his chores silently completely ignoring him and by each passing day he was getting more and more annoyed at her. His smoking increases more, forcing her to sit in the same room when he smokes.

But on other side he took her with him to the super market for grocery shopping. It was strange buying grocery with him, but she was glad that she'll have food to eat. He even told her to buy anything if she needs for herself, but she didn't answer him nor bought anything for herself, and she also completely ignored him.

Once when she was watching TV because she was getting hello bored. She saw the least expected person on news. The news anchor was telling about the most eligible bachelor of NewYorks young millionaire, who was none other than Alexander Blade who took resorts to another level by coming on first number for making new and maintaining old excellent resorts all around the world.

Alizey was shocked when she realized he's a businessman and a millionaire. These mansions explain well about his money but him being criminal after having everything was disturbing.

During all this time Alizey only visit Muskan once again, and she felt lively, otherwise everything is same. Muskan tried to ask Alizey few questions regarding their marriage but Alizey always dodge her questions. Alizey also met Asad Muskan's son, and she immediately fell in love with the kid.

Alizey also borrowed a Quran from Muskan and now she'll be able to read Quran after her fajar prayers. After talking to Muskan about random things Alizey felt like Muskan knows Alex very well but is trying to hide it from Alizey, or she is uncertain about something.

Today is also like any other day Alizey was in the kitchen when Alex came and ordered her to get ready till seven as they will be going out on a party. Alizey refused to answer, so he just told her that a dress is already in her room, and she must be ready in all costs.

Alizey was having a strange feeling that something is wrong or more precisely this beast is up to something. He never even took her out of this house twice and now he's taking her on a party.

She really wanted to say no but for that she'll have to argue with him then he'll win because she'll speak. Just on her childish stubbornness she planned to make his plan a big failure.

***

Alex was extremely annoyed from the past two weeks. Firstly on Alizey's silent treatment and secondly on the three idiots who were eating his brain cells just to get to know about Alizey's well-being.

Those days when he left Alizey at his place alone he was staying at the mansion to do some crime business and during those three days Mia, Jack and Lucas made his living impossible by asking about Alizey whenever they had a chance to ask. That headache was intolerable.

But having Alizey going silent on him was not acceptable at all. Her silence frustrated him to the core and sometimes he felt like making her speak at gun point.

He got an excellent evil idea to make her speak again. And he is so going to enjoy tonight.

He was still engrossed in plotting his plan when his eyes landed on the beauty descending from the stairs. His eyes were a bit wide and lips slightly parted in complete paralysis.

"Alizey." He spoke huskily as soon as she came towards him like a confidant queen.

Alizey so wanted to say 'Close your mouth beast, you might catch a fly.' But she restrained herself. His always emotionless face was now completely showing how beautiful she looked.

She mumbled Masha Allah under her breath, so she can protect herself from evil eyes like his.

Her dress was elegantly beautiful, she liked his taste in dressing, she was wearing light makeup and a beautiful hijab was wrapped around her head. Even tho she was wearing heels, she was still reaching his shoulders.

He was wearing black tux with red tie. His tattoos poking from his neck and hands gave him a rough look. His Rolex set elegantly on his wrist. His hairs were jelled back, his sharp jawline was covered in an evident subtle. His icy eyes were looking like cold gems. He was looking like the most handsome man she has ever seen, but behind this beautiful face is her rough tormentor.

What is the use for her acting like a pious person when he already knows her reality. Scoffing at her hijab he cleared his throat. "Let's go!" His sleek black Range Rover was already parked in the front. He sat in his driving seat waiting for her to get in as it was difficult for her to handle her dress and get in a high car.

"Stop your fucking shit and get in already!" Alizey flinched at his words and immediately with difficulty hopped on her seat. With a roar of the engine he speeds towards their destination.

The whole ride was silent, and she keenly observed her surroundings and the roads, so she could get some familiarity with the place she was in.

Soon they reached the destination and were escorted in the beautiful hall. Alex squared his shoulders and his demeanor became authoritative.

They barely went in when Alizey's whole posture went rigid, and she almost moved behind Alex.

The whole hall was less like a normal human party but more like real Halloween party.

She thought that there will be sophisticated people here, but she gulped audibly when people eyed her like she's an Alien.

It must have to be his business related party but it was more like a scary criminal gathering. Large cringing music was blasting, lights were flashing and people were dancing while clinging to one another. She felt nauseated.

She squealed in surprise when some blond guy with a scary Scorpio tattoo on his face passed by her while saying. "Are you a fairy?"

Alizey immediately holds Alex's arm tightly with her both hands as if indicating all the eyeing people to get scared of Alex and back off because she's with him.

The blond guy holds his hands up in surrender and left while chuckling. Alizey's eyes met with Alex's as he croaked his one brow at her and indicating towards her hands. Alizey immediately left his arm and straightened up.

Alex smirked and moved to sit in one of the booths. Alizey fumed in rage, he brought her here on purpose. Alizey quietly sat beside him with a bit distance.

People were giving her weird looks and almost everyone looked scared of Alex.

A tall lean man approached them with a sly smile playing on his lips. His face was full of piercings and his eyes were black, he had a small goatee and was giving negative vibes.

"Alexander Blade! What a great surprise? How do we get the pleasure of your presence." He mused.

"I came Sebastian and that's enough!" He spoke in his deep authority voice leaving no space for any more questions. But that guy must have a death wish as he spoke. "And who's this angel?"

Alex was about to gave him a punch when he saw the pale features of Alizey. She was scared that was clear but still she was being stubborn not to speak. Alex decided to play along to make her speak.

"My escort." Alex replied simply. Alizey felt hurt at his words. She can easily tell that this man didn't have any good intentions and if Alex would've said about her being his wife he would've backed off.

"Did you pay her?" He asked again eyeing Alizey up and down. "Technically yes." Alex affirmed.

Alizey's eyes flashed with tears as she tried to control her emotions. He brought her here only to disgrace her more. Alizey lowered her gaze and looked away.

Alex was fuming at the bastard who was eyeing Alizey like a piece of meat but Alizey was silent as night and it infuriated him more. Just one word from Alizey is all he needs to rip Sebastian's eyes out.

Alizey was playing with the beads of her dress when a beautiful woman in extremely short dress approached them. Her butt was filled with Botox and her artificial bosoms were almost spilling out.

She seductively passed through Sebastian and skill fully sat on Alex's lap like she's done it so many times. Alizey's eyes almost popped out of their sockets at her audacity. But what got her more infuriated was Alex hand as it rested on her naked thigh.

"Becky the temptress!" Sebastian mused. Alizey felt extremely uncomfortable as with Alex's each stroke on her thigh. Her heart felt heavy.

Becky stood up and crouched down a little to whisper in Alex's ear. "Let's dance." And at the end of the sentence she licked his earlobe. Alizey felt nauseated.

Alex looked at Alizey once and left with Becky to the dance floor. Leaving Alizey alone with Sebastian.

Alizey eyed Alex as Becky danced while clinging to him. "So how much for one escort?" Sebastian asked getting a little closer to her but still at some distance.

"Mind your own business!" She seethed. "Feisty!" He chuckled giving her a once over he continued. "Give me your number babe I want to make you my escort for next time and yeah I'll pay you more if you'll be good in bed."

Alizey stood up and slapped him hard across his face and hurriedly left to find that good for nothing Alex, while Sebastian was still in shock of the slap.

Alex wanted Alizey to stop him from going with Becky, but she was still adamant to continue her silent treatment. Even tho Alex was on dance floor his eyes were on Alizey who moved a bit away when Sebastian moved a bit closer.

His hands clenched into fists when he saw him eyeing and saying something to Alizey. The slap surprised Alex and he felt proud.

Becky made Alex face her in annoyance but Alex yanked her hand away harshly and just in seconds Alizey was out of his site. "FUCK!" He cursed loudly and went towards Sebastian. He yanked him up by his collar.

"She's my wife! YOU FUCK TARD!" With a strong punch Sebastian fell down with wide eyes crying out in pain.

Alex was searching for Alizey everywhere for complete ten minutes until he found her near the empty pool side crying.

"Alizey!" He holds her shoulders and she flinched in complete fear. Her eyes were shot red and her face was ashen and her hijab was disheveled.

She immediately cleaned her tears and lowered her gaze while fixing her hijab. "I-I wa-nt to g-go h-home!" At that moment Alex knew something was wrong.
