walks in the room.
    “Zara, you look well?” He says with a fake smile.
    I raise my eyebrow at him in a questioning manner.
    “Ok, I’ll be outside,” Theo tells me before kissing my cheek and getting up from the bed. When the door closes, Richard walks over to me with an intense look on his face.
    “I will take you to Dallah soon, but you need to understand that she stays here until we are bonded.”
    “Ok, can we go now?” I ask eagerly.
    “You seem to have built a friendship with Theo.” He tells me, completely throwing me off.
    “Uh yeah, I guess, does that bother you?” I ask in confusion.
    “No.” He says shaking his head as if to clear it.
    “So can we go now?”
    “Yes come on.” He tells me in annoyance.
    I jump out of the bed excitedly and stand beside him with a huge smile. I can’t wait to see her; it’s been way too long.
    “I’m not walking around with you in that!” He tells me.
    Looking down I have on a man’s shirt that looks like a dress on me.
    “Who changed me?” I ask suspiciously.
    He shrugs his shoulders and walks out of the room, just leaving me standing there.
    He returns soon after with a dress on his arm and a pair of shoes.
    “Put this on.” He orders.
    I take the dress and shoes and run to the bathroom in a hurry to get the dress on, so I can see my beautiful Dallah.
    I walk back into the bedroom wearing the dress and shoes. The dress is Black, tight and very elegant, as are the shoes. My hair dries with a curl to it so I pull it over my shoulder. Unfortunately, I have no underwear at all; I hope Dallah has some spares.
    “Ok all set.”
    “Uhh, what... where is your...?”
    “Oh my bra? It’s gone from the bathroom and it was covered in blood anyway. Can we please go?”
    “You have no underwear on?” He asks with a raised brow and a ghost of a smile.
    “No I do not. Can we go then?” I ask annoyed by his stupid questions. So arrogant.
    He doesn’t speak; he just walks through the bedroom door, down the hallway and into the elevator.
    Turning to him, I study his side profile,
    He is extremely handsome and very well built, but his evil side makes him very ugly, it’s a shame.
    “What Zara?” He asks with his tone laced with irritation.
    “Thank you for last night, and for dressing me , I know it was you who changed me into the t-shirt. Before you shout, I’m not saying you’re a nice person...you did see me naked.”
    His frown turns into a wicked grin, stepping towards me as I back up till I hit the wall. He Cages me in with his hands either side of my head, his grin gone, replaced with a look of lust. I’m more afraid of him now than when he beat me, putting my hands on his chest to push him back, his heart thundering in his chest as his lips get closer to mine.
             “No Richard”! I cry out, shocking him, as he jumps back from me so fast with a stunned look on his face, as if surprised at his own actions. The ride continues in an awkward silence until we get to the second floor. On exiting the lift, he grabs me by the arm and I don’t even care that he is pulling me along the corridor like a rag doll, because I know where he is leading me.
    As we get to a secluded part of the palace, ahead of us are large oak double doors. He stops a few feet from them and faces me with a shady glare.
    “Last night shouldn’t have happened, you were lucky that Theo was there, but know this, your beauty and tricks will not work on me, the only reason I don’t kill you where you stand is because of Dallah.” He tells me with unguarded anger.
                  “Fine, as we are clearing the air, you should know that I will get you back for the way I was treated. I took the abuse for one reason alone, Dallah. So you can try your shit, but it will get you nowhere. You will never break me Richard, you will be broken first.”
    “You still have the fight in you,” He tells me as a statement rather than in a question.
    “I will fight you all
