Cruel Destiny

Natasha POV

My breath stuck in my throat when I listened to the dangerous voice that I had ever heard.

It was filled with authority and darkness which was ordering me to comply with his orders or the consequence would be worse.

With trembling hands, I closed the door and kept the bag down at the side of the door.

I took some steps toward the living area and switched on the lights. Instantly, the room got filled with lights instead of cold darkness.

The man didn't turn his face toward me. He just kept smoking like he hadn't just broken into my house.

"Who are you?" I asked with a slightly raised voice.

I didn't show him that he was scaring me or making me feel like anything. I had enough experience regarding this situation.

That man threw the cigar on the floor making me scrunch my nose at his action.

He stood up from the couch and turned toward me. He was probably in his late 40s.

But he was not looking that much old. I had seen that man somewhere.

His face was familiar to me. I tried very hard to focus on my memory.

The memory hit me like a truck. Now I knew why he looked familiar to me and where I had seen him.

He is James Knights, Liam's father. I had got a glimpse of him when I saw the news regarding Liam's marriage.

Now I am frightened. What was he doing here? Is that a kind of game for his family?

First son and now his father. I took a step back when he stood in front of me.

I looked at his eyes with fear while he just stared at me blankly. I licked my dry lips and asked "what are you doing here?"

He raised his hand toward me and I flinched thinking that he would hit me.

He just caresses my hair which made me cringe. I hate his touch. I wanted him to take his hand away.

I jerked back and his hand fell. I sighed in relief and told him "Get out of my house before I call the cops."

I said cops, he chuckled. It sent shivers down my spine. I shuddered
