Third-person
Isabella was sitting in her room, waiting for her fiance Zack worriedly taking a look through the small window in her room from time to time.
She was waiting eagerly to know the exact timing for the wedding and discuss some details about her precious day.
Zack has been busy with business and left the full preparation and arrangement for the wedding details on her shoulders.
He was craving and eager to marry her finally after she had graduated from high school lately and turned into eighteen years old.
He did the impossible to convince her parents to get married to her early because he wasn't young anymore. He was twenty-five, and his father handed him the full authority of one of his companies.
Certainly, Zack was the dreaming man of any family; yes, any parents wouldn't reject a filthy rich and handsome businessman. Sincerely in love with their parents.
And because Zack was a straightforward and decent man, and he wasn't a playboy, so Isabella's parents agreed to let her live in Zack's family house before marriage- Because she would live there, after the wedding, after all.
And because that house was like a giant palace and Zack's father and a lot of servants were already living in the same house, there was nothing to worry about.
Only one dangerous and risky thing, no one thought of- And that was the nasty womanizer Xander- The elder brother of Zack who was almost thirty years old. And who has been called in the business field as the nasty wrecker?
Nasty because he was entering a new sexual affair with a new woman daily, women crawled after him. They were throwing their bodies in his arms. He filled his sexual desires and reached his climax, then turned into his next prey.
And wrecker, because in the business field, he was merciless, destroyed, and stepped on everyone trying to block his path. He was madly in love with money and authority.
He was Dominant in real life and bed.
And because of her bad luck, and while she was waiting for her fiance, who was her only lover, her heart never throbbed for any other guy except for him. If it wasn't true love, then she didn't know that because simply she has no experience in stuff like that. He was the first one who confessed his love to her. He was the first one who gifted her flowers. He was the first one who kissed her hands gently. And he loved her since she was only sixteen years old. He has been following her everywhere from her house to school to protect her, so as a result of all that caring, Isabella fell in love with Zack.
But that nasty womanizer on the other side was ignoring her all the time. And she didn't know why he was looking down at her. She didn't give a shit at all until her bad fate forced her to be his because of one night.
Isabella heard noises and screeched a car downstairs, she walked hurriedly to the window to take a lot, but she couldn't see the car. It was so dark. And suddenly the electricity for the whole house turned off. She startled and almost squealed. She hated darkness.
She sat silently, waiting for, and hoping that the one who arrived would be Zack. And with the footsteps coming closer to her door room, she stood up.
Only to find out that who barged into her room was not Zack but Xander!
He stepped closer from her and scanned her body in sensual and lust looks.
She gulped nervously and gazed back at him. She stammered, asking him, "Is there something wrong? Your room is on another side of the corridor." she innocently reminded him. She knew that he was the kind of man who comes late drunk every night.
And how innocent she was, he pushed her inside and slammed the door behind him. His breath was filled with alcohol, made her flinch and shiver.
She stepped back, "Xander, please go. You smell alcohol! you are drunk."
He wasn't in need to remind him; he was aware of his case. And it wasn't anything new. He was like that daily, and actually, he increased his dose after she had moved to the house. He was always angry, especially after the date of Isabella's wedding, and Zack was reserved.
He wasn't sure about the reason for his anger.
The alcohol blinded him, or the lust or the love!
He didn't think of anything except taking what he wants and what he needs even if it was by force.
He pulled her to his chest and moved his hands down to her thighs and up to her boobs- And when she tried to push him away and release herself from his firm grip. He tightened his arms around her waist, and in just seconds, he stroked his mouth, eating up her lips roughly and aggressively, hoping for entrance. She tried to graze his lips by her teeth to force him to go away.
But she only earned a groan, and he pushed her down to the bed and trapped her underneath his heavy and strong muscled body to almost paralyzed her movements.
She tried to squirm and to roll her body away. She tried to scream, but he sealed her mouth with his hand.
She was weak and tiny, nothing compared to his monster body that muscles popped out of every inch of his arms.
She tried her best to move right and left, but all her attempts failed.
He raised her hands to her head and, by his other free hand, unzipped his pants. But she finally heard her cellphone ringing in her jeans. She bit Xander's hand and picked up the call. He was Zack. He breathed in relief, hoping that might help her.
"Isabella- sweetheart- " and Zack was on another side of the call as he turned from speaker to silent listener, shocked by what he was hearing.
And what was harsher and mentally killer than a lover hearing his fiancee got raped!
They were supposed to get married in a couple of days!
Isabella yelled at Xander, "please- leave me."
But nothing! Instead, he snatched the cell phone from her small hand and didn't hang up the call, but he threw it next to him on the bed. And with the stubborn and rage tone, he ripped off her clothes and said, "never! I will take what I want, and I want your body now!"
And her cries and screams didn't stop Xander from stealing her virginity.
Until he reached his climax, he pulled his dick out of her bleeding pussy. And gazed at her torn clothes and her swelling eyes, checking the bedsheets that were stained with her blood drops.
But he wasn't the only one who has seen that blood scene.
Zack arrived at the same time Xander finished his mission of raping Isabella.
Zack saw Isabella on the bed naked- the aches of pain squeezed his heart.
Zack's eyes popped out, and he stared at Isabella that hopped off the bed, crying heavily with blurred vision and sire in her pussy.
All she wanted and needed was Zack to hug her and give her safety hugs and comfort her, but instead, Zack pushed her away to fall on the floor and coldly said to her, "Isabella! sorry but now I can't marry you after what happened between you and my brother."
She gasped and gazed at him in awe, scared and tried to explain to him innocently, "but I'm the victim! He raped me! I didn't do anything. I swear."
Zack bluntly and coldly suppressed his temper and turned his back to Isabella, saying, "Sorry, but I can't. I won't be able to touch you or marry you after what happened."
And suddenly, Xander blurted out confidently, "I will marry you, Isabella!"
Isabella
As if the universe was turned upside down all of a sudden. I didn't know why that horrible thing happened to me. And why was Zack's reaction like this? As if what was between us wasn't true love at all!
I was standing in my place, confused and dumbfounded. I was raped mercilessly just now for god sake! I was mentally and physically suffering, and no one was standing by my side! No one at all! As if I was the criminal, not the victim!
and the weird thing that Xander repeated his words again with confidence," I will marry you, Isabella!"
With broken eyes and sorrow in my chest, I shot Xander with disgusting looks trying to cover my body with my torn clothes and cover my naked body while staring at Zack with blaming eyes.
But Zack just ignored me and walked away in huge paces.
I tried to follow him, but my feet were shaking, and I couldn't reach him fast. Zack walked downstairs, and finally, the lights came back to the palace. I tried to stand up on my feet by a miracle. I was almost dragging my legs. I touched Zack's jacket, but once I did, once I fell on my face. I started to cry heavily and crying out, trying to explain that I didn't do anything wrong "please Zack, listen to me. I didn't do anything."
That's when I found myself surrounded by all the servants and guards and even Zack's father and Xander, who raped me a few minutes ago.
All the eyes of the servants and workers of the palace lowered to the floor silently, of course, they were afraid to step one more step from me or say anything or be fired. But even so, the servants looked at me with eyes full of pity. They wanted to help me, but they couldn't.
But the shocking thing that Zack and his father were looking at me in up and down looks! I was totally paralyzed! I couldn't understand why!. Zack's father loved me so much, and he was happy because I was going to marry Zack. He treated me like his own daughter. He was pampering me, actually. And Zack was following me everywhere like my shadow before! Now he didn't even want to look at me?!
Seriously! I should have called the police instead and asked them to help me not call Zack!
I crawled on the floor, with blurred eyes from my massive tears and with a breathless tone barely could be heard "Zack! Please. You didn't love me? Please marry me! I didn't do anything. I promise I will be like your maid. but please don't leave me in a situation like this." I begged Zack.
Zack cleared his throat, then he turned his eyes away from me and said in a cold tone, "why are you apologizing, Isabella? You didn't do anything wrong. You are a victim. But-." Zack lingered his words in the air.
I raised my head with eyes full of hope and cut him off immediately. "Then you will marry me, Zack?" and how much I was silly and innocent back then!
Zack scoffed and laughed in a hysterical tone pushing me by his shoe as if I was trash in front of him. Zack didn't even try to help me stand up on my feet or even cover my body. He crossed his arms over his chest and said bluntly, "Isabella, but that doesn't mean that I will marry you. I can't marry you now. I suggest you get married to my brother. If I married you, I would always remember that someone else touched your body. I loved you because you were a virgin and pure girl. Can't you get Isabella?! I loved that no one has touched you before me!"
And the words of Zack almost turned me into deaf. I felt like I was lost in a maze with no end at all. I felt as if my heart had nearly stopped!
I was sucking for air to fill my lungs and breaths. I was like lost who was trying to process what was going around her! But I couldn't! Seriously?! Does that mean that Zack abandoned me quickly like that!?
I nodded my head and crawled to Zack's feet and tried to kiss his shoes "no, Zack! Please. I will live as your own slave for the rest of my life. Please don't do that to me. you are destroying me and my reputation!"
That's when I felt a firm grip pulling me roughly to stand up on my own feet. I raised my head up to see who was standing on my side and the strange thing, he was my murderer! The one who ruined my innocence and the love inside me!
The one who stole my virginity 'Xander!' he yelled at me sternly, "stop now, Isabella! Can't you see that Zack doesn't want you? Can't you see that he didn't love you?! can't you see that he doesn't deserve you! If I was in his place, I would kill the one who raped my sweetheart! but Zack didn't even fight with me or blame me!"
Xander's words were right and proper! But honestly, his sympathy was something contradictory! he was the reason for what I was suffering at that moment!
I pushed Xander's hands away from and hollered at him, "get your dirty hands off me! I hate you! If you didn't let me go. I will-" I was threatening Xander.
Before I could continue, I found Xander's eyes filled with love I have never seen in my life! It was something strange! Mysterious thing as if Xander was hiding a secret! But I didn't care, I would never get married to my brother fiancee, and mostly he was the one who raped me! A rapist!
I felt pain aches in my stomach as if I was going to throw up. I was exhausted as if I would lose my consciousness in any second. I rushed towards Zack's father, pleading for him to be a wise man and justice "please, sir, say something. do something."
And Zack's father smiled boldly and scoffed, throwing me with up and down looks "first! If Xander didn't let you go, you wouldn't be able to do anything to him. Second- I literally refuse to let any of my sons marry you, so stop acting like you're innocent. I'm sure that you seduced Xander." Zack's father accused me of being a slut!
WHAT IS THAT FUCKING HEARTLESS FAMILY! I'M NOT A SEX TOY!
I almost lost the ability to form a word ! my eyes widened from the thunderstruck looking to Zack and his father in disbelief from their bold reactions.
Suddenly, Zack's father came closer from me and snapped his fingers to one of the servants commanding him, "get me ten thousand dollars from my office now."
I was still standing in my place, trying to be strong. I didn't know what his intentions were. And I didn't know if my parents heard that scandal. Especially that Zack and Xander's father was filthy rich, a billionaire actually! I was a freshly high school graduate, and my parents were from the middle class.
The servant rushed back and handed Zack's father the money, then Zack's father, with a threatening tone, said to me, "Isabella, if you called the police or if anyone heard about what happened. I will throw you behind jail bars. Not only you but your father and your mother as well! and no one will help you."
With raised eyebrows, Zack's father throws the money to my face as paid sluts before I could form a word to save my dignity. Zack continued harshly and rudely, stabbing me in my heart by his words, "pick up the money, Isabella and just get out of here. that money is paid to shut your mouth."
Zack selfishly furrowed his brows while he gestured to me to kneel down and take the money and leave.
I didn't know what I should do except accept the situation and zip my mouth!
But because of the feeling of subdual and debasement and injustice, I fell immediately, losing my consciousness, and everything turned into darkness. My body turned into ice immediately and shivered intensely.
Before losing my full consciousness, I felt strong arms lifting me up and yelling worriedly, "please, Isabella! Please wake up. Stay with me. I will marry you. please, I will protect you, and I will face anyone for you-."
Echoed the voice again "pleaseeeeeeeeeee."
And that's when all the voices have gradually fainted until I lost the feeling of anything around me.
I was mumbling internally, this is just a nightmare, and I will wake up fine soon.
That's what I wished! until I opened my eyes to the squealing and screaming and noises of people wearing white clothes repeating the same words as if they were informing someone "she's awake! She's awake-"
----..
Isabella
I was opening my eyes and closing it from time to time trying to come back to my consciousness once again. until I found someone in front of me, looked exactly like Xander! but with a thick beard! and crumbled clothes when I opened my eyes.
I remembered that he was wearing those clothes that freaking night when he raped me! but with no beard!
I gulped nervously feeling burning in my dry throat. but finally, I asked a question to one of the nurses that was standing next to me checking on my situation as I guessed "I- how much-"
I stammered, it was so hard for me to talk. she patted on my chest gently and gestured to me to not speak "madam, please relax. you have been sleeping for five days! and your husband! was staying near you without eating or sleeping all that period!"
she said amused and gestured proudly and more with envious eyes that someone loved me to that degree.
I thought he was back! or in another meaning, I hoped so. but it didn't come to my mind that when the nurse made a path to see Xander instead stepped hesitantly and slowly towards me "Isabella!" and with a trembled voice more like whispers he called my name.
That rapist dared to talk to me! and call my name!
"Xander?" I raised an eyebrow more like questioning myself! could it be really him! my heart didn't believe that what happened previously was real fact! and that I lost my virginity by force and that my fiance didn't save me and kicked me out of his life boldly!
My rapist was my savior? And the one who was standing next to me at that moment! How could anyone be able to believe it?!
It's nonsense!
I felt aches in my heart as if I had a heart attack already. drums in my chest, suddenly I was surrounded by too many doctors and nurses yelling at Xander to get out immediately from the room.
I didn't know if my life was ended that day in the hospital or when Xander raped me. but my suffering started after that day.
Echoes in my ears only by Xander's voice as clear as crystals in my ears "I WILL MARRY YOU ISABELLA!"
-.
After what happened in Zack house and what Xander has done to me and the way I was humiliated and kicked out animalistic by Zack's father. I couldn't stay for one more second. I wished to die but life grabbed into me more and more.
I opened my closed eyes once again to find myself in the hospital. and the one who rushed to help me was Xander. he was sitting next to me praying with eyes filled with tears to come back to life again.
He glared at me with eyes filled with regret, or that what I felt!.
I asked him to get out of the room and leave me alone for a while.
I stayed alone for some time trying to understand what fate is doing to me, but I couldn't answer my suffering except trying to stand up and run away from the hospital.
And yes, I stood up and asked the nurses "please, I want clothes. could any of you ask Xander to go and get me clean clothes?"
One of the nurses nodded and stormed out of the room with a broad smile to tell him.
and that's when I found my chance to escape.
I snaked on my tiptoes, I stole some glances at the door to check if he was out or left. and once I saw him leaving the hospital. I dashed off ignoring all the nurses calling my name. with bare feet and a hospital barely naked! I ran as fast as I could in the street. Everyone was looking at me but I didn't look back. I was jumping and passing cars almost got hit twice.
I fell down many times, but I insisted on recharging myself with power and getting up and running every time.
All I was seeking to do was reach my parents' house, hug them, cry, and tell them what crime happened to me.
Finally, after more than an hour of running, I reached my house, knocked insanely on the door, hardly breathing, and my feet were bleeding. I stumbled by the door of the house almost injured everywhere.
my mom opened the door and gasped squealing when she saw my case and how miserable and injured I was "Isabella! what happened to you?"
immediately my father heard my mother whining and helping cries, he rushed towards me and carried me by his arms and gently placed me on the couch in the living room.
I was panting trying to reclaim myself and breathe normally to talk.
Dad patted my shoulder then my mom started crying heavily and started wiping and cleaning my feet.
I smiled weakly in depression at my mom and said to her "please, mom, calm down. I'm fine."
My mom shot me with pity looks then started asking me, "where did you go? We did search for you everywhere! What happened and why are you wearing hospital patients' clothes?" she bombarded me with too many questions.
I sighed and before I could give her an answer, suddenly my father yelled at me and asked me another question "Why in the hell Zack canceled the wedding, Isabella?" his tone was blaming mixed with a stern voice.
I stammered and gulped nervously, suddenly I felt like naked when I remembered what happened to me. subconsciously my body started to shiver and I said "Dad, I-"
my dad cut me off angrily "Zack sent us some money with a letter saying it is payment for spending some time with you! what does that mean?"
I hopped off the couch immediately to fall down on the floor to my father's feet and cried heavily telling him "no dad! he is an ass! he abandoned mend me- after.. after.." I couldn't say the word! I couldn't say I was raped! as if the memory hit my brain all of sudden as if it happened minutes ago.
The scene was intense in front of my eyes.
I squealed and whined loudly "he abandoned me after his brother raped me."
and that's when my tears streamed like rain on my cheeks, and my heart throbbed painfully too fast in my chest like hammers. I was going to faint again but I tried to stay awake.
I didn't imagine why a girl like me just turned eighteen years old and was going to get married suffered from a disaster like this?!
and that's when the thunderstruck hit me with my father's words "Shut up and don't say any more words!"
I raised my head looking at my father dumbfounded as if I have been killed one more time "dad! I'm a victim! I didn't do anything!."
until my mom suddenly hollered at me with broken eyes "it's a scandal! Who will marry you now?! Did you know that after Zack canceled the wedding that no one will dare to propose to you? they will call you by slut!"
her words were too harsh! I couldn't believe she could call me a slut!
"Mom!" I widened my eyes shockingly at her.
I didn't know that my father and my mom would blame me too! I wanted to come back to them to protect me not to hear that!
my dad pulled me from my hair roughly to stand up on my feet and stared at me with rage and disgust as if I was a whore! He warned me firmly "if you told anyone of what happened they would destroy you and send me to jail for the rest of my life! so shut the fuck off. you became a curse and troublemaker!"
I blinked and begged him "dad please do something! please. Xander took my virginity by force and that wasn't enough for them but they kicked me naked in the street and -."
and then I remembered who saved me when I lost my consciousness! and who yelled at his father and his brother with no fear for me. who stood by my side in the hospital for days without eating or sleeping. He was Xander!
and with a firm slap from my father, I came back to my real disaster. my father hollered at me "you are a fucking slut! starting from now you will be imprisoned in that house as a maid! got that? I don't want to hear anything about what happened ever again!"
all the words in the universe were totally erased from my brain especially when I saw my mom crying without commenting on my father's harsh and insulting remarks. she didn't stand by my side and on the contrary, she avoided eye contact with me and said "bitch! my daughter became a bitch?! I better see you as a maid!"
her words were like a knife stabbing my heart, how would I live in a nightmare like that? if my dad and my mom couldn't protect me and defend me! Then who will do it?!
Suddenly my dad madly turned into a monster and started slapping my face with all of his strength, punching me everywhere, and kicking me in my stomach by his shoes as if he wanted to kill me at that moment. I was receiving all the strong beats and hits silently without defending myself, not even running away. Seriously, I wanted to die at that moment.
only my weak whining and suppressed moans from the pain was the only voice coming out of my mouth.
until the beating stopped. I opened my eyes to find a firm grip squeezing my father's wrist. I raised my head to see who dared to barge into our house out of nowhere!
and that's' when I heard his confident voice while gritting on his teeth " I will marry Isabella tomorrow!"
I shook my head and screamed, "no no no I will never marry you."
but my dad growled threatening me "then I will kill you now!"
"no one will kill her! no one will touch her until my death! Did you hear what I'm saying? never! and get your hands away from her or I will break your fucking bones." Xander pushed my father while threatening him.
"What do you want Xander? didn't you get enough from what you have done to me? Why do you insist on marrying me? I'm just slut! slut!" I yelled, slapping my face and whining with a broken voice.
but he carried me gently between his arms and sighed while wiping my tears and whispered "you are mine, Isabella. soon you will understand everything but at the right time. but you are mine and only mine forever."
