Mistress

Chapter 46- Surrender

After twenty days

Author's p.o.v

It's been twenty days since Sehreyar has locked up Meher inside a dark room. The room has become

a hell for Meher. She is suffocating in the room like a caged bird.

The room is very creepy without any window. It has just a small ventilator for the air system and a

washroom for the natural activities of Meher. The only source of light in this room is a small yellow light.

It's more like a prison for Meher.

Sehreyar didn't remove the chain from Meher's feet. She has to move with this heavy chain. Her one

ankle is bruised as the chain got tightened whenever she moved or tried to remove it. Her conditions

are getting worsen day by day.

In these 20 days, Sehreyar didn't touch Meher sexually nor he abused her physically. He has given her

the proper amount of food and clothing. He was true to his words. He didn't torture her physically but

he tortured her mentally.

Sehreyar didn't let Meher meet Mehrab. He also ordered the maids to not talk with Meher. He has

isolated her from the world. He is determined to have her submission.

In these 20 days, Meher has cried for Mehrab like a madwoman. Her beautiful eyes were always teary

for her son, for her freedom. She has hurt her soft hands while banging on the door harshly. She has

hurt her throat while screaming to see her son for once. Meher was given the proper amount of food

still lost her weight because of anxiety and stress. She couldn't eat properly nor she could sleep.

Everyday Sehreyar would come and ask that she has accepted him or not. And every time he got no

from her and continued his mental torture on her.

On the other hand, Mehrab has cried numerous times for his mother. For a little child like him, mother's

care and love is everything. He has missed his mamma so much. The first few days he almost stopped

eating and continued crying day and night. Sehreyar became a stone-hearted person and didn't let the

mother and son meet each other.

But, slowly Mehrab got habituated without his mother and came close to Sehreyar. Sehreyar has tried

his best to take care of Mehrab. He took him to Disney lands and gave him everything that Mehrab

wanted. Their bond has become stronger in these days. Whenever Mehrab asked Sehreyar about

Meher, he only told Mehrab that his mother is being punished for disobedience. Mehrab didn't

understand anything and continued yarning for his mother. He missed his mother's warm embrace too

much.

Right now, Meher is sitting on the bed hugging her knees. Her hairs are messy, dark circles are

prominent under her eyes, she has lost her weight as well. Moreover, she is really looking like a

prisoner.

She is looking at the wall having a blank expression on her face. There is no tears, no emotion, no

agony on her face. She is just staring at the wall like it's the most interesting place to see. Maybe, she

is looking at the wall but something is roaming inside her head. She is thinking about something deeply

and fisting the bedsheet tightly. She fisted her palm tightly that her knuckles turned white.

Her trails of thoughts are cut when she heard a click sound and the room's door burst opened. She

looked at the door and found that Sehreyar has entered having a questioning look on his face.

He came forward and sat beside Meher. She just looked at him with her void dead eyes. He caressed

her rosy cheeks and opened his mouth to ask the same question which he was asking for twenty days.

Before he could utter any words, Meher hugged him tightly and cried out loudly. She is crying very

badly like it's someone's funeral. Yes, it's her soul's funeral. She accepted her fate that she is trapped

with Sehreyar forever. She has accepted the reality that Sehreyar will never leave her alone until she

dies. She has surrended herself to Sehreyar and she knew that there is no going back.

Sehreyar became startled by her actions. He felt very hurt seeing her tears. He hugged her back and

said stroking her hairs," What happened love? Are you ok?

" I am sorry for my behaviour with you. I am sorry. I have understood how much you love me," Meher

said soaking Sehreyar's shirt with her tears.

Sehreyar cupped her face in his palm gently and asked," Are you accepting me as your husband?"

" Yes, I accepted our relationship. I was stupid to not understand your love. But, it's not late yet. We can

start afresh," Meher replied giving Sehreyar an innocent look.

Sehreyar's heart melted seeing Meher's innocent face. He wiped her tears gently and kissed her both

eyes.

Then, he apologised saying," I am also sorry, love. I never wanted to act harshly with you. But, the

situation was very difficult and you were acting stubbornly."

" I am sorry for my stubbornness. I love you, Sehreyar. I love you," Meher confessed and hugged him

tightly.

Hearing Meher's words, Sehreyar felt like after so many days he is feeling some peace. He always

wanted to hear this from Meher and finally, he heard it. He is now successful in having Meher fully.

" Say again, love. Say again that you love me," Sehreyar said squeezing Meher in his embrace. He

missed her body warmth so much. He missed her whole existence too much.

Meher replied with her emotional voice," I love you, Sehreyar. I love you with my whole heart. I was

stupid to ignore your genuine love for me."

" I love you too, my heart...my everything," Sehreyar said and started kissing Meher's pink petals

hungrily.

Meher also responded to his kiss. They passionately kissed each other. Sehreyar's tongue roamed

inside her mouth taking the sweet taste of her saliva. And Meher also kissed him back just the way a

wife should kiss her husband. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

After their passionate kiss, Sehreyar started opening the chain from Meher's feet.

" Ahh....." Meher winced in pain when Sehreyar's finger touched the bruised skin of her feet. Meher's

eyes become watered because of pain.

Sehreyar said removing the chain gently," Shh.....Shhh.....love....It's over love. I will never chain you

again."

" I know. You will never hurt me because you love me maddeningly," Meher said slightly smiling.

Sehreyar replied smiling back," I love you, my love. You have made me the happiest person in this

world."

Meher took a deep breath hearing him and asked impatiently," Where is Mehrab? Is he fine? Did he cry

too much for me?"

Sehreyar replied holding her delicate hands," Mehrab is fine. Yes, he missed his mamma. But, his

Abbu took good care of him."

" Can I meet him? Don't keep me away from him anymore, please," Meher requested innocently.

Sehreyar scooped Meher in bridal style and said smiling," You will meet him. But, first, you have to take

a shower and get ready. You can't meet him in this condition."

Meher just nodded her head in positive and held Sehreyar's neck gently to balance herself in his arms.

Sehreyar is now heading towards their bedroom when Meher asked caressing Sehreyar's cheeks,"

When are we returning India? I think we should return and inform our family members about

ourselves."

" We will return to India very soon and I believe that after returning you will not try to run away or say

anything to your brothers because you love me, Right?," Sehreyar said with a warning voice where a

sinister smile formed on his lips. He has given a don't you dare look to Meher.

Meher chuckled and replied pecking his lips," why would I try to leave my husband? From today, you

are my everything."

" That's my girl," Sehreyar said happily and entered their bedroom.

He walked towards the washroom and after settling Meher in the bathtub he said pulling her cheeks

affectionately," you take a shower. I will send your clothes. I will be back with Mehrab."

Meher just nodded her head in positive and didn't say anything further. She gave him a little smile and

closed her eyes feeling the cold water on her body.

Sehreyar's p.o.v

" I don't want to eat. I want to see mamma," I heard Mehrab saying to the maid who is trying very hard

to feed him. It's lunchtime and he hasn't anything yet.

The maid replied sighing," Little sir, don't make this thing difficult for me. Please, eat food. If I fail to

feed you then your father will not spare me."

" Didn't you hear me? I don't want to eat. I want to hug mamma. I want my mamma," Mehrab screamed

angrily and threw away the food plate on the floor.

He is now crying very loudly saying only one thing," Mamma...I want to go to my Mamma. Where is

she? .......ehh.........ma.....mma.......ma.....mamma......"

My heart cried out in pain seeing him crying. Oh, my poor little son! He has missed his mother so

much. It's time to take him to his mother.

" Leave the room right now," I ordered the maid and she immediately obliged me.

Mehrab looked at me and ran towards me. I picked him up in my arms and he said hiccupping,"

Abbu....i.....wa....nt.....Ma...mma....please.....ta...ke....me...to.....her"

" I am taking you to meet your mamma. Don't cry. Aren't you a good boy? Now, give a smiley to Abbu,"

I asked him wiping his tears.

He replied smiling," I am a good boy. Take me to Mamma. I am missing her so much."

I took him to my bedroom and entered silently. Entering into the room I found that Meher is drying her

hairs. She is wearing a purple colour gown type dress and looking like a princess.

Not a princess. She is a Queen. My queen.

Seeing Meher, Mehrab started wriggling in my arms and I put him down on the floor.

He ran towards Meher and screamed excitedly," Mamma....."

Meher turned her face behind and Mehrab jumped in her embrace and giggled loudly. Meher hugged

Mehrab tightly and cried out loudly.

A smile formed on my lips seeing them together. I know I have acted cruelly with Meher. I kept her

away from her only happiness because I didn't have any choice. I know I became selfish. Yeah, I am

selfish for Meher's love. I just want her and to have her submission I did all this. She loves me now and

will love me always. I will not leave any chance in front of her to leave me. Even if she tries to run away

I will find out her anyhow and if it's necessary I will chain her again.

I will not leave her until death do us apart because she is the only woman I have ever loved. My love

for her is selfish and self-centred because, without Meher, I am nothing. I will never let her go away

from me.

" Mera baccha(my kiddo), you don't know how much I have missed you. How much I yarned to see you

for once," Meher said kissing Mehrab's whole face repeatedly. She is behaving like she has found the

most precious jewel of her life.

Mehrab replied kissing Meher's cheeks," I missed you too mamma. Why did you leave me? I was so

scared and thought that you will never return."

I felt guilty hearing Mehrab's words. I have deprived him of his mother's love. But, what can I do? His

mother made me do all this.

" Mamma will never leave you again. It's my promise," Meher said and looked at me with her innocent

eyes.

I went towards them and said patting Mehrab's small head," Hmm. Your mamma will never leave you

and your Abbu."

" We will live together. Yay!!! I have my Abbu and mamma together, " Mehrab said excitedly and Meher

chuckled hearing his words.

I took Meher one hand and said kissing her knuckles," Love, I am sorry again for behaving rudely with

you."

Meher stood up holding Mehrab in her embrace and said kissing my left cheek," Don't be sorry. I

should say sorry that I ignored your genuine care and love for me."

Before I could say anything Mehrab said making a naughty face," Abbu, you are so big but still you

take kissy from mamma!! Kissyes are for little boys like me not for big giants."

Saying that he again kissed his mother's cheeks giving a naughty look to me.

Hearing his words and seeing his actions I couldn't control my laughter and laughed out loudly. I looked

at Meher who's cheeks are now crimson red because of shyness.

" Ok, I will not take kisseys from your mamma again. But, I want my little Munchkin's kissy," I said

taking Mehrab in my arms. I pulled his chubby and bubbly type cheeks affectionately.

He kissed me on my beard filled cheeks and said pouting," Ouch! It stings. Your beards sting my lips."

I just laughed seeing his cute pout. He is indeed Meher's son. Both mother and son will kill me one day

by showing their cuteness.

I looked at Meher and said softly," My love, we are returning to India. There I will marry you again in

front of everyone."

" I can't wait for this," She replied and smiled a little. But, this time, her smile felt different like it has

some meaning. Her smile didn't reach at her eyes like before and she is looking down fisting her palm.

Why she behaved like that suddenly? Am I missing something about her?
