Jwala:

I took a shower and got ready in the dress sent by my mom which was specially embroidered by her for my birthday. I went to Agni's place as per his order.

"Madam, sir is waiting for you in his room," his servant said, and I went to his room.

"Can't you knock the door before entering?" He yelled at me.

Only then I saw him in bed naked with another girl. They were under the blanket, and his shirtless physique was visible to me. The girl covered herself with the comforter entirely and turned another side. Why did the maid say that he is waiting for me? I tried to close the door and go away.

"Come inside," he said bitterly.

"Wh.. What?" I said.

"Come inside and take that packet placed on the table. Wear that dress and get ready. I will come after completing my important work," Agni said.

I took the parcel and rushed from there to another room. I found a dark blue ghagra choli and a jewellery box in it. I didn't like the dress as it was sleeveless and reveals my navel but I can't say that. I calmly wore that dress and jewellery.

The scene where Agni was naked with a girl in bed replayed several times in my mind. I felt upset. Why is it affecting me?

I know he has the physical relationship with many girls. I am not the only girl in his life, and he is not my husband. I shouldn't think about him or his affairs. I wiped my tears and decided not to shed tears for him who is trivial in my life.

After half an hour, Agni came to me. He looked at me from top to bottom. He wrapped my waist with his left hand pulling me towards him. He kissed me.

"You are inviting. I want to take you right now. Nonetheless, you are beautiful when you are in bed naked," Agni said killing me.

Suddenly, he held my hand and twisted it harshly.

"Agni, leave my hand. It's hurting. Why are you angry with me?"

"Don't you know to knock the door before entering the room, you bloody whore? I thought not to hurt you today, but you crossed your limits" he said twisting my hand again.

He started abusing me again. Why am I this vulnerable? What does he think about me? If I didn't bound to the contract of the orphanage, I would have killed him.

"I am sorry Agni, but maid told me you were waiting in the room for me," I said and he left his hold. My hand was red due to tight grip. He looked at my hand. He threw a wide bangle at my face.

"Wear it to make the bruise invisible to others."

"Now, follow me. I booked a hall in a hotel to celebrate your birthday," he said, and I followed him holding my bruised hand sliding the bangle a bit.

"Leave it. You no need to show off to everyone that I hurt you" Agni said, and I left seeing my hand.

We reached the hotel, and he placed his hand around my waist smiling and showing the fake love. I looked around and found my friends. I think he invited them to the party.

"Put on a smile on your face, if you didn't want your lips to bleed tonight" he warned me.

I gave an artificial smile looking at my friends and other invitees. Party was going on, and he went to meet his circle. My best friend Aadarsh came to talk to me.

"Happy Birthday, Jwala! A small gift from me," he said giving me a sweet box.

I opened it and found my favourite sweets which are available mostly in Andhra Pradesh. It was paper sweet. I love it.

"I know Agni will give you everything you want. You will be happy with him once you marry him" Aadarsh said to me.

I will die every second if I marry Agni. I prefer death to marriage with Agni. Once again, I remembered the incident I saw in the morning.

"I thought as these sweets are not available here in Delhi, I bought them for you," Adarsh said, and I smiled.

I was about to take a bite for courtesy, but Agni came and threw the box from my hands.

"How many times should I tell you not to take anything from anyone? If you want anything, say a word, and I will bring it for you" he said keeping his hand over my waist, pinching it without other's notice. His nails are sharp to leave scars around my waist. I bore the pain and kept my tears in control.

"This is what you get for disobeying me," Agni whispered.

He called a waiter and said something. Within five minutes, he brought a plate full of paper sweets.

"I know what you love, sweetheart. These are special paper sweets made in a hygienic environment and filled with cashew and sugar powder. Have it, Baby!" he said and fed me with his hand.

I ate it silently bearing his torture which he is giving with his another hand. We finished cake cutting.

"My gift for you is transferring orphanage to your name" he gave the orphanage documents to me.

The date mentioned in the documents was after four months, and not with immediate effect. After four months, my contract of one year to sleep with Agni is going to complete. I took the papers and heard people appreciating him for his love on me, which made him leave property that costs twenty-five crores. Media tried to cover the event. What if my family see those photos? I acted as if I fainted and Agni took me to his car in his arms and drove to his house. He threw me on the bed and closed the door.

"Get up, b*tch. I know you were acting."

I opened my eyes shivering. Agni gripped my hairs in his fist and pulled them to make me stand.

"Didn't I tell you that you are never supposed to act before me?"

"I am sorry Agni, but I did that as I had no option. If the media cover our photos and if they reach my family, they can't bear. Please, understand," I said.

I fell on the floor with his hard slap. I held my cheek weeping.

"How dare you to talk to a man other than me? Don't you remember that for one whole year, you are my property?" He fumed at me.

"I am sorry," I said.

"Look!" He roared.

"You are mine, and I should never find you, talking to any male except me," he said and kissed me.

Before I complete my words, he cut my dress from back and dress fell on the floor making me half naked. Within the next few seconds, he made me completely naked. He took me to bed and came top of me.

He kissed my lips, and I too responded as I know the consequences if I stay still. He then started playing with my bosoms and navel giving me both pleasure and pain.

"Your body is so soft which tempts me to pinch it and bite you. This property belongs to me, Do you understand?" He asked kissing my neck.

I didn't reply, and he bit me my bosoms and neck leaving hickeys. I screamed and moaned whole night, with the pain and pleasure which he gave me. He left me at midnight.

"From tomorrow, you are going to stay here in my house. Shift your luggage here. I have just four months to enjoy your beauty. You are going to satisfy me in every way I order you. You won't be getting rest for these four months. As you completed your exams, stay at my home. Whenever I come home, you must be here. If I didn't find you at home, I am not going to spare you."

I nodded. Next day Agni accompanied me to the hostel to make sure that I shift to his house. Now I am going to face his torture 24*7. However, I can't escape. If I try sidestepping before the contract completes, I am sure he will ruin my life, the reputation of my family and throw the kids and old aged people on streets from that orphanage and will spoil the life and family of Vigna, for whom I sacrificed my virginity. To stop all these, I must stay quite whatever he does to me. I shifted my luggage to his house.

"Stay in my room with me," he ordered.

I took my luggage and maid tried helping me to carry my bags to his room.

"Jwala, I told only you to stay in my room, not your garbage. I kept everything you need in my room as per my choice. This garbage is not necessary. Go to our room. I will be coming."

"Okay!"

"Throw this mess in a storeroom and lock it. I shouldn't see Jwala's stuff anywhere in this house except in storeroom. Hand over the key to me," he said to the maid.

"Look, you should take my permission if you want anything from your luggage. I will decide whether you need it or not."

I nodded.

"Didn't I tell you to wait in our room?" He said raising his voice.

I went into the room. Agni came after a few minutes.

"Get ready wearing any dress from those clothes, which I kept in my wardrobe for you. From today, for the next four months, you are going to assist me in my office work too. I can't leave you in the house in my absence. However, I don't think your body alone costs twenty-five crores to leave that orphanage easily. I want your brain too. In these four months, you have to work for me on the projects which are tough and values crores. Unless you make my company win projects of twenty-five crores, that orphanage will not be your's permanently"

"But you didn't say this before our deal," I said stunning to his words.

"Look, Sweety! Do you think your body alone costs twenty-five crores? You can't make twenty-five crores even if I start doing business with your body 24*7. So, just shut your mouth and work for my company. As you are a student, I didn't trouble you to work until you completed your final exams. Now your body and brain must work for me and must be under my control," he said.

He broke my heart with his words, one more time. However, it's his kingdom, and only his rules will apply. Arguing with him gives me nothing but more pain. I went to the wardrobe and searched the clothes to wear. Everything was a one-piece dress which I never wear as it reveals much of my skin.

"How long will you take to choose a dress?"

"I.. I.. Can't. Wear... These... Dresses...please" I requested.

"Can't you do anything without saying no and receiving punishment from me?"

"Agni, please."

"Look, most of the companies which make deals with my company usually get attracted to my PA rather than the actual deal. You must look hot and se*y. Everyone must feel to take you there itself just by looking at you once," he said and took a dress and threw on my face.

"Get ready fast," he said

I was about to go to the washroom to change, but he held my arm.

"Change before me. However, I saw you naked many times. I already told you that your body and brain must be under my control for these four months."

Tears were flowing from my eyes, and I wore that dress before him. As soon as I changed my dress, he slapped me. I fell to the floor and looked at him with fear. He pulled my hair and made me stand.

"Don't spoil your glamour with your stupid tears. I love your tears, but you are allowed to cry only at night time. If you cry while going to the office, I will kill you, you useless b*tch" he said slapping me again.

"I.. Am.. Sorry... Please... Don't hit. Me" before I complete, he slapped me again.

"It's me who should decide what I should do with you. Not you, understand?"

I nodded.

"Now beautician is coming for you. She will do makeup to make your dirty face look beautiful. Let her do what she wants to do with your face and hair. I don't want you to trouble her. From tomorrow you will get ready in the same attire," he said and left the room giving me a chance to breathe.

Jwala:

After getting ready, I accompanied Agni to his office. I was about to sit in his chamber, but he showed his hand asking me to stop.

"Don't sit! Let the delegates who visit us see your beauty and glamour. After all, you are here only for that" Agni said smirking and observing me from head to toe.

I tried to cover my thighs with hands to escape his lustful looks. His intense gaze was creating an unknown feeling in me. I was unsure whether it is aversion or like towards him. Can I like a person who ruined my life completely?

"Don't try to hide your body from me, Baby or every part you try to hide from me will bleed tonight making you scream the whole night," Agni said, and I took off my hands from the thighs.

"Go and call Vara Industries Chief Mr Rona," he ordered.

I called Mr Rona. He came inside, but from the moment he saw me, he kept staring at me. His eyes passed through my half revealed bosoms to thighs and so on. I felt as if I am dead. My Baby blue was about to shed tears but controlled noticing Agni's anger.

"Bring two cups of cold coffee for us," Agni ordered, and I brought coffee for them.

I served coffee and Rona touched my thigh lustfully. I thought to leave the room.

"Hey Jwala, come here," Agni called, and I stopped.

"Rona is ready to sign our deal. But, he kept a condition."

"Wha. .T?" I asked.

"He wants you for a night. I am sure he won't disappoint you" he said laughing.

Both laughed making me scared and broken.

"No Agni, please."

"Rona, don't worry. This beauty is your's tonight" he said, and Rona left. I sensed pain and anger on his face. If he didn't like to send me to Rona, then why is he doing this to me?

"Agni, please I can't do this," I begged him.

He signalled me to follow him and took me to his home. I stood in the room scared of him.

"It's a ten crore contract. I want it at any cost. I am not going to leave it for a sl*t like you. You are going to entertain Rona tonight," Agni declared.

"Agni, please I can't do this."

"Already your virginity was broken. Don't behave as if you are a virgin. There is no difference between me having you or Rona because even I am not your husband," Agni said lighting a cigar.

"I beg you Agni, don't do this to me," I said holding his legs.

Agni held my shoulder to make me stand.

"You bloody b*tch! How dare you to say no?" Agni said making me cry with fear.

He held my hairs and dragged me to the bed. He removed his belt and started hitting me.

"Aaaah, Agni please," I screamed, but he didn't stop.

He hit me many times with his belt without mercy. I don't know what I have done to deserve this harsh treatment. He dragged me and threw me into the storeroom.

"Unless you accept to go to Rona, you will not be given even a drop of water. Remember by evening, you should say yes, or you will see hell," Agni said and locked me in the storeroom.

I broke down finding no way to escape from this misfortune. I felt dehydrated but didn't get water in the room. In the evening, Agni opened the door.

"Tell me are you ready to go to Rona?"

"No," I said slowly.

"You b*tch, if my deal gets cancelled, I will send your naked photos with me in bed to your family. Just imagine what happens then," he said throwing those photographs at me.

I was in shock looking at those photos. Did Agni take my pictures while I was with him in bed? How can he do such a thing? I closed my eyes to control my feeling which prompts me to kill him.

"If you didn't want me to send those pictures to your parents, get ready and go to Rona. Let him do whatever he intends to do with you. If he signs the deal only then these photos will be safe with me" he said, and I got up from the floor.

"So are you ready?"

I nodded. I got ready, and Agni dropped me near the hotel.

I found no consistency between his words and expressions on his face. I sensed something is wrong as I recognised tension on Agni's face. Why is he in tension? Why is he behaving like this? I know Agni is heartless but not a person who has no ethics. He cannot play with the dignity of a woman for promoting his business. However, I can't ask him because he won't answer me.

"Room no. 5, Don't create any mess. I won't spare your family if you do anything wrong. Don't refuse to anything he does" he said.

I was about to go, but he held my wrist. His eyes were showing unknown pain. He suddenly placed a kiss on my forehead surprising me. I looked at him with confusion.

"Driver, start the car," he said leaving my hand and closing his eyes leaning back to the seat.

I took slow steps towards Rona's room with fear. Agni made me completely a sl*t from today by using me for his business but is he willing to do this to me? I knocked on the door, and Rona opened it. I went inside. He closed the door and came to me. He touched my face with his hand. I felt irritated.

"You look hot. I am happy to have you tonight. I signed a deal of ten crores for your boss to send you to me for one night. But, I have no regret for it. Because you are se*y and I want to get more of you in this one night. Come on, Baby!" he said and took me to the bed.

Suddenly his phone rang, and he received it.

"What the hell? I am coming" he shouted on the phone.

"I am sorry, Baby. I need to go, it's urgent. You leave now. I will inform to your boss the date again" Rona said, and I came out thanking God.

I called Agni.

"Hello, Baby! How was the experience with Rona? Is he better than me?" Agni asked, and I felt to hit him as hard as I can.

"He left the hotel."

"What do you mean? What did you do to make him go?"

"He got a call. So he's gone. He may inform the date to you later."

"Okay! Come fast to me. I am free to have you fully and teach you lessons to make you never say no to me anytime."

"Here I didn't find any transport facility. How can I come?"

"Show your body to anyone. They will drop you in the city" he said making me lose my patience completely.

"Okay sure, but I will be late to home as I need to pay him for his favour of dropping me in the city," I said with tears.

A car stopped in front of me.

"Madam, Agni sir told to pick you," the driver said.

I know Agni can't do business with the self-respect of a woman, but why did he act? Is he evil or good?

"What did you say? Repeat it," Agni shouted at me on the phone throwing my thoughts aside.

"I said what you are doing to me. You already made me a prostitute by sending me to Rona," I said trying to make him reveal the truth.

"Enough, shut your bloody mouth and come home," he said disconnecting the phone.

I reached home and went to his room.

"I am sorry Agni," I said sensing his anger.

He looked at the door, and I locked it. He came to me and pinned me to the door and held my throat.

"Agni, please... Leave... Me."

"Shut up. Just answer my questions," Agni said and left my throat.

"Answer me! Did I force you to give your virginity to me?"

"No!" I said

"When you agreed to the deal, didn't I tell you that you should do whatever I say?" Agni asked.

"Yes!"

"Did you agree to listen to my every word and to be in my control for a year? Did you give the right to me to use you as I wish?"

"Yes!"

"Then why are you trying to make me feel bad for my deeds when it's you who accepted everything?"

"I told you that except you no one should touch me. But you broke the rule."

"Jwala, if I rape you then I would feel that you are a good girl and it's me who ruined your life. I never forced you. It's you who offered your body to save Vigna who is unknown to you and slept with me. Do you think a man will respect a girl who offered her body without any force unless she is his wife."

"I did that to save Vigna from you," I said between my tears.

"Are you going to protect every girl who is going to get raped by offering your body?" Agni asked.

"Agni" I shouted at him.

"Look Jwala, even now you can leave and escape from this bullshit by just giving away your hope of getting that orphanage. I never come into your life again."

"But I can't go back now after sacrificing everything just for that orphanage. However, my life was spoiled the moment you touched me," I said.

"Jwala, if you want, I will marry you instead of giving that orphanage to you. Then you will have dignity in society. You no need to feel as if you lose your virginity as I will be your husband. What do you say? Do you want your dignity and respect in society or that bloody orphanage? If you say orphanage, then I need to make twenty-five crores using you. So, you will be sent to many people for several nights till I make that money through deals, using your mind, beauty, and body. Of course, twenty-five crores are not that easy to make and definitely before completing the target you will become the worst prostitute who was used by many people many times. Take your decision," Agni said to me.

"One more thing, marrying me is not mandatory. You can leave without marrying me," Agni added.

Jwala:

What should I choose? I recalled the innocent faces of girls in the orphanage. If I opt to marry him, he will throw them out without any mercy. What if they meet the same fate as me? If he throws those innocent girls on the streets, anyone might do anything to them. This society is cruel enough to destroy their life. No, I can't make the life of those kids a living hell. Whatever it is I will take it. If he shares me with anyone, I will kill myself after completion of four months. But, I can't spoil their life.

"No, I can't leave the orphanage," I said.

"Okay, then come fast to the bed. I am going to teach you lessons for refusing my words in the afternoon."

I went to him and lied on the bed. He made me naked again. He started kissing me but stopped and took a wine bottle.

"Drink it."

"I don't drink."

"A sl*t don't have a right to say no for anything," saying this he forced me to drink.

He kissed, sucked and teased my breasts. I bit my lip to control a kind of sensation which is making me go with the flow. He kissed my hands. He placed few wet kisses all over my body giving me the pleasure. Is it possible to feel love even in this kind of relationship which is nothing but a contract? Why am I feeling his love in his every touch? No, he didn't know to love a person. He is a beast. I should hate him. He didn't deserve love.

"Wow, your body is beautifully decorated with the belt marks I gave you in the afternoon. You need it, isn't it? You need it from time to time to remember that you are under my control," he said hitting on the scars to which I screamed.

This is what he is. He never leaves any chance to hurt me and make me hate him. I don't know what destiny decided for us. It is my foolishness to imagine love in his harsh and lustful touch.

"Agni, please leave me," I asked him.

"Sure tell me that you will give up the orphanage."

"No!" I stated.

"Then shut your bloody mouth and tolerate whatever I do to you," he said continuing his torture which is sweet and bitter.

I dissolved in tears for one hour. I was prostrate with Agni's torture.

"Water," I groaned.

"No, you will not be given even a drop of water till morning, and I won't leave you. Bear it, Baby. Get habituated to this nonstop pleasure. Every night, you will face this. What did you say on the phone? Repeat it now," he stated in a venomous tone.

"Please, I need water."

"Tell me what did you say on the phone? Do you want to pay to the person who drops you in the city by sleeping with him for a night? Sure, if you are that interested, definitely I will ask my driver to have you for a night. What do you say?"

"Agni, please I am sorry. I am dying; please give me water. I am sorry."

"Will you keep your dirty mouth in control from now?"

"Yes!"

"Will you try to provoke me again?"

"No!"

"Good! I will give you water, but you should entertain me for the whole night, or I will leave you, but I won't give you water till the morning. Tell me your choice."

"Leave me," I said. Agni left me immediately and slept beside me.

I tried to sleep, but every part of my body was aching. I moved that side to this side to ease the pain of my sore body, and suddenly I felt his grip on my hairs.

"You dirty wh*re, sleep without moving. Don't disturb my sleep or I will give you no rest until morning even if you beg," Agni said seriously.

I nodded. I didn't sleep the whole night, and in the morning he called me.

"Agni, please give me water," I requested.

"Oh Baby, you didn't take water from last night, isn't it? It's sad, but you need to wait for more time. Stay still in the bed without moving till I return from my shower. Then I will give you water," he said kissing my lips harshly.

He came from the shower.

"Water, please."

"Good, you are in bed till I return from the shower. Not bad! You are learning to obey my words."

He went to the refrigerator and came back with a wine bottle in his hand.

"Drink it!"

"Please, I want water."

"No, either drink this or die of thirst," he said.

"Ok, give it," I said with tears.

"No Baby, I will pour it on you. You should open your mouth and try to drink it. If you didn't drink, you are not given food or water for the next twenty-four hours."

I opened my mouth. Agni poured wine moving bottle here and there making me jump and climb to drink it. He laughed loudly.

"Wow, I love this scene. You are trying to drink wine by jumping and moving here and there like a wh*re. Awesome!” Agni said pouring wine on my face and body.

He made my body wet with wine.

"You look se*y, while wine is dripping from your body. It is tempting me to have you again."

"Come on Baby, let me have you one more time now," he said pushing me to the bed and came top of me again.

He had two sessions with me before leaving me.

"Go and take a shower, you look like a dirty wh*re. Get ready and come downstairs within half an hour. You are not given breakfast today. I will decide whether to give lunch or not after seeing your behaviour at the office. Wear something hot and which reveals belt marks and love bites on your body. I want you to get insulted before everyone. My staff must know that you are not my girlfriend but a wh*re," he said and went downstairs.

My body was sore and bitter. Somehow I managed to reach the washroom and took a shower. I got ready and went to the car. I sat beside him.

"You are beautiful with love bites all over your body, Baby."

We reached the office and went to his cabin.

"So let's see who will own you today. Go and call the clients, Baby" he said, and I called a delegate who came to meet him.

He talked and finalised the deal.

"So as a gift for our agreement, I will give this beauty to you tonight," Agni said showing me.

"She is pretty. I am leaving to Malaysia tonight. If you don't mind, send her now itself with me."

"Sure, no problem,” Agni said to that delegate.

"Jwala, go with him," Agni said, and I went to him hiding my tears.

"What are these marks on your body, Baby," the client asked me.

"They are to teach her to obey me. You too can give her such marks if she refuses to your words" He said.

Both laughed at me.

"Of course, she needs it. I think she needs more" that delegate said pinching my waist.

I looked at him furiously.

“Jwala, down your eyes. Say sorry for your look."

"I am sorry," I said but he slapped me to which Agni laughed out loud, but I noticed Agni clenching his fist.

"Don't give her water or lunch, only then she will learn the manners," Agni said, and I looked into his eyes. He didn't meet my looks but escaped cleverly pretending as if he was talking to that client assuring me that he was hiding something.

"Sure, I will use my belt too if necessary."

"You can!" Agni said.

"Look Jwala, don't refuse anything he does. He is an important delegate to me. Behave properly. Remember you are nothing but my property which has no respect or feelings," Agni said.

I followed that man and sat in his car. I don't know who will save me today. Am I going to be his prey today? God, please show me a way to escape from him. Agni, can't you do anything to help me? Are you a person with no ethics and morals? Why is it hurting me to digest this fact?
