Elysia was sleeping soundly in her apartment. Oblivious of the world. Her life was smooth and comfortable and she didn't want anything else. However, she had no idea that in a single night her whole world could turn around.

The weather was cold. These days it's been raining a lot. The aesthetically pleasing sound of the rain was making her sleep harder. The darkness of the night was on its peak.

Elysia had no idea that it was raining. She had herself covered with the comforter. If she was awake she would have enjoyed this pleasing weather. These days rain is reminding her of someone whom she met a month ago.

Her eyes were dreaming. Suddenly the main switch of the apartment was turned off. That's why the night bulb in her bedroom also went off.

Her fragile body was unaware of the darkness this night was going to bring to her life. Beautiful dreams in her eyes were shattered due to the weird feeling. She felt like something heavy was on the top of her. Even in her sleep, Elysia had a hard time breathing. She tried to turn away but she felt like her body was paralysed.

Her sixth sense woke up but she had a feeling that she was still dreaming. If this was a dream then it was dangerously killing.

In order to shatter this dream, she tried to open her eyes but her eyelashes also felt heavy. The hot breaths of someone were smoldering her face and neck.

Within split seconds, her senses were heightened. With drowsy eyes.... She looked around in the room and without caring about the darkness, Elysia tried to identify the man who was leaning over her and she got aware of his purpose through the tight grip of his hand on her arm.

Her fragile heart drowned somewhere. ''Wh.... who?'' Her lips quivered. Eyes filled with tears. She didn't waste any second and pushed this unknown man away and ran towards the bedroom door.

The man on the bed got up even faster than her and ran behind. While Elysia has fallen down after colliding with the table. She couldn't see a thing in this darkness but her instincts were warning her of what is coming next.

The man laughed so loud that her breaths almost stopped. He looked at her in the darkness with squinted eyes as she got up from the floor. The thunder and lightning outside was lighting up the room.

Elysia got a glimpse of his features. He was average in height maybe 5.6, little muscular, dangerous and deadly but old enough to be her Dad. Those eyes were so scary that I felt her soul being sucked out. Her heart was about to break down the ribcage.

''Why are you in such a hurry, dorogoy (sweetheart)?'' The Russian accent was rolling off his tongue. ''If you will resist so much then it will only make me more thirsty for you and the result---- you know what I will do to you.'' He tightly wrapped his arm around her waist and in the light of a lighter, he brought her to the bed. While she was resisting.

''Who are you? What do you want? Please don't do this. We... we can talk.'' Elysia begged. While her begging was only doing things to him. Tears were rolling down her eyes.

''Let me go. Please for God sake, let me go.'' She was desperate and helpless. She couldn't act tough with him so she begged.

That ruthless man ignored her sobs and leaned onto her.

''N-no.... please... Please let me go." She put her hands on his chest and tried to push him away.

''How can I let you go? This is your room. I should be the one to leave and don't worry, sweetheart. I will leave but after staining your beautiful face.'' He said with hatred as he touched her face.

Elysia tried to scratch his face but he made her attempt impossible and put her hands behind on the headboard. Elysia felt chills down her spine.

''I have never offended anyone. I even haven't seen you before. Still, I apologize if I ever did something wrong to you. Please don't do this to me. Please, I beg you.'' She pleaded and cried. Her sobs were echoing in the room.

''Don't... don't do this. Please.... please have some... mer-mercy on me.'' She was saying in incoherent words.she was crying badly but the man in front of her wasn't human, he was satan.

''I am being merciful. You love him so much that you saved his life so I should spend a night with you in return.'' He was saying with disgust.

Elysia had no idea what he was saying. Nor did she have the strength to make out of his words. All she wanted was an escape from the disgusting touch of this devil. His grip in response was getting brutal.

Elysia roared, ''I DON'T LOVE ANYONE. LET GO OF ME YOU, BASTARD.'' She moved her limbs frivolously but her little attempts of escape were nothing to him.

When her words had no impact on him, she shouted again. ''IS.... IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE TO HELP ME!!??'' She was sobbing like a child, but there was no one to hear her and he was exploring her body like a book, touching every page of it, smelling the fragrance of new pages. Touching the peak of ruthlessness.

''Mom!!'' She shouted so loud that her throat was scratched. She preferred to die rather than being touched by this stranger.

He comfortably sat on the bed and lit a cigarette. He was enjoying her sobs and whimpers. They were putting his mind in peace.

''Shouldn't we turn on the lights, dorogoy (sweetheart)? I am sure when you will find me sitting so close to you, you will feel better.'' He smoked and looked at her tear stained face in the flame of the lighter.

Elysia tried to cover herself with the blanket at what he said. Her eyes frightened.

''Yes, there is whole night left, dorogoy (sweetheart).'' He said and smoldered her earlobe with the cigarette. The burn made her scream on the top of her lungs. Her throat was now swollen from crying so much. Her senses were going numb. She tried and tried but after thousands of attempts she couldn't protect herself from his repulsive touch.

He turned on the lights. Elysia didn't want to even look at his face. In one swift motion, he tore her clothes. She resisted but he slapped her face so hard that she saw stars. ''Please...'' she whimpered. But that did nothing to him.

When he entered her forbidden hole, he was taken aback to find that she is a virgin. ''Oho, you are not a virgin anymore.'' He informed her as he looked at the look that was oozing out of her. While Elysia screamed in pain. She felt like something inside her had been torn apart.

''By the way, I am surprised to know that he hasn't touched you yet. You must be so precious to him.'' He was talking wickedly. ''What should I do, I have taken something which he desires. What will he do now?'' He laughed.

Elysia had no idea what he was saying. She just wanted to run away from his powerful thrusts.

That satan played with her body the whole night. Her body was shattering and she couldn't put those pieces back. Even after ruining her, he didn't feel better.

So, with a cigarette he carved the initials of his name 'M' on her left cheek. She had no strength left to resist that. The tears were scattered. She was in pain to the point that she felt herself going numb.

Her body was wounded, her soul was bleeding.... before dawn, he had stained her body and soul. He had tried a new drug while Elysia had died although the chain of her breaths hadn't been cut off. He left.... he left but after doing what he wanted. He ruined her pure face and bravely left his sign on her left cheek and neck. He wasn't afraid of anyone.

He wanted to see that man helpless. That's why he chose her and made her a target of his hate. It was an open challenge for him. While she could do nothing. There was nothing for her to do.

Her body had no strength to even get up.

Elysia laid in the bed deprived of any signs of life in her. Only the slight rise and fall of her chest was the evidence that she was living although she was dead.

Her phone was ringing continuously but she had no strength left to get up and see who was calling her. Just when the scary night flashed through her mind, she shrunk and hugged her legs. The tears were leaving the corners of her eyes.

The phone stopped ringing and it hadn't been 10 minutes yet when the knock on her door grabbed her attention. Her eyes frightened instantly. She covered herself with a blanket and sat on the corner of the bed.

It was a futile attempt to show that no one was there. Her mental health was shattered badly. One night had changed everything in her.

The banging on the door got louder. ''No one is here. I AM NOT HERE.'' She roared and covered her ears with her palms. Those banging sounds were hammering nails in her head.

''No one is here.'' She continued to say and cried. Her voice was dying down. Elysia was standing at the peak of helplessness.

Soon, the beeping sound of the door lock caused goosebumps all over her body.

She wanted to run away. She wanted to drag herself out of this hell.

Just then, the door of her bedroom opened. Elysia cried and yelled at the top of her lungs. ''LET GO OF ME.''

''DON'T DO THIS TO ME, PLEASE.... PLEASE DON'T.'' She sobbed.

While Lauren, who had just entered her bedroom, was shocked to see what was happening. Her room was turned upside down and Elysia stood in the corner of the room with a blanket wrapped around herself. It didn't take much time for Lauren to understand what had happened.

Elysia suddenly started to scratch her cheek and neck which that bastard had smoldered with the cigarette.

''Elysia.'' She walked towards her with trembling legs.

While Elysia fervently tried to run away from her.

''ELYSIA.'' Lauren shouted and held her by the shoulders, but she was saying one thing again and again.

''Leave me, please. I beg you.''

''Elysia, get yourself together. It's me Lauren.'' Lauren shook her from the shoulders and held her hand that was scratching the wound. The blood was now dripping out of it.

It was stinging badly but the pain she was going through was a lot more than that.

Elysia finally lifted up her heavy eyelids and she saw her only friend. The red and swollen eyes took in her reflection.

''Lauren.'' She whispered and confirmed with the fear that it might be a dream.

Lauren nodded her head. ''Yes, it's me.''

When Elysia realized that it wasn't a dream, she instantly pulled her into a hug.

''Lauren, I-I was-'' she wanted to tell her but the words were stuck in her throat.

''Shh..'' Lauren knew it must be hard to tell her everything.

''It's okay, Elysia. You are fine, don't cry. I am with you.'' She walked her to the bed and softly touched her left cheek.

''What will I do?'' The horrible glimpse of memories from the past night were breaking her further.

''Who was he?'' Lauren asked with rage.

Elysia shook her head. ''I don't know who he is. I don't even know how he entered my apartment.'' Tears never stopped trickling down her eyes.

''Let's go to the hospital. You need to get tested.'' Lauren took out an outfit from the closet and helped her to change into it.

''I don't want to file a report.'' She suddenly said to her friend when they were going to the hospital.

The heated eyes of the taxi driver from the rear mirror were making her disgusted too. Elysia felt like he was taking off her clothes with his eyes.

So, she got scared and put herself behind Lauren. Lauren knew that her mental health was not well and in order to get her out of this phase, she kept quiet.

She went to the hospital and when a male doctor came to check up on her, she got frightened and started to shout. ''DON'T COME NEAR ME. DON'T TOUCH ME.''

''Miss, I need to do a check-up. Come back to your senses.'' The doctor was politely saying to her.

''Lauren, please ask him to leave. In fact, let's go. I don't want to stay here. Please take me home.'' She sobbed.

Lauren grabbed Elysia by the shoulders and made her stand on the bed before talking to the doctor, ''I am really sorry, doctor. I have a favor to ask.'' She looked at the doctor with helplessness, ''If there is any lady doctor available please ask her to check up on my friend.''

The doctor sighed. He glared at the girl who was hiding behind her friend and looked terrified.

The doctor nodded and left.

''Lauren, he killed me last night. I don't want to breathe anymore. Ask these doctors to give me something that will stop my breaths.'' Her painful words were echoing in the room.

''Ask them to give me poison.... or suffocate me.... kill me... take my senses away.... let them make me go insane. These senses are stabbing my soul. I feel like my whole body is burning on fire.... I am in pain.... Please free me from this ruthless pain. I don't want to live.'' She was shaking her head and putting her hands together as she pleaded.

Lauren, who had been trying to stay firm till now, was shaken up by her words. She could not stop herself from crying and pulled her in her embrace. ''Nothing happened. It was a nightmare.''

''Take me home. You shouldn't have brought me to the hospital. I don't want to become an entertainment for others.''

''Hide me from the world. That's best.''

Lauren was patting her back and she tried to take a gulp of her own tears.

The pain in her cheek increased to the point where she couldn't tolerate it anymore and started to scratch it ruthlessly.

Lauren tried to hold her hands but it was impossible for her to handle it. Luckily, at that moment, the nurse followed by a doctor entered the room. They instantly gave her a sedative.

It took her some time to lose her senses and sleep soundly but the moisture on the tip of her eyelashes, the tear-stained face, red-pointed nose and the blood oozing wound... There was evidence that something terrible had happened to this girl.

Lauren was aware that it was a police case while Elysia wasn't in her senses to deal with this mess, so she lied to the doctor and told them that she was a drug addict and that's how she got her cheek and neck burned.

The doctor believed her and treated her wound accordingly.

Three days went by. During this time, whenever Elysia woke up, she would start scratching her cheek and neck and because of that, her wound got pretty big and bad. It wasn't healing at all.

The doctors were continually putting her on sedatives.

Lauren stood by her side the whole time.

When Elysia woke up, she rushed towards her. ''How are you, sweetheart?'' She lovingly asked.

She bitterly looked at her friend. ''I am alive... I am fine.'' She answered in a piercing voice.

Lauren sighed. ''I have decided to take you back to my place. We should live together.''

Elysia didn't answer her. There was nothing to say. That horrible night came and took everything away from her.

Lauren took Elysia to her apartment.

No matter how many times she showered on the touch of that man.... she failed to get rid of it.

The nightmares were not letting her sleep. She would wake up in the middle of the night and start screaming while the wound on her cheek and neck would become a victim of her frustration.

''It will never heal this way.'' Lauren weakly said, ''This is going to leave a scar.''

''What about the scar which he has left on my soul? What will you do about that, Lauren?''

''Try to forget it. You should make an effort to come back to life.'' Lauren was saying to her softly, ''Your boss from the animal clinic also called today. She was asking about you.''

''Promise me that you will try to get better.'' Lauren put pressure on her.

Elysia nodded her head. She did not have any other choice.

Lauren ran her fingers in her beautiful hair and comforted her as she drifted to sleep.

Elysia was so beautiful. Her fair skin, perfect features, everything about her was flawless, except that huge scar now. Her heart ached.

'Isn't there any happiness for her in life?' She thought.

They had been friends for 15 years and she was well aware of the life which Elysia had spent.

Lauren sighed and kept the lights of the room on. Elysia gets scared in the darkness, so she keeps that in mind and leaves that room. Lauren sincerely hoped for good days in her life.

Sebastian stood on the balcony of his bedroom. Cigarette was in between his fingers while his eyes were darker than the night.

Ricci came to him and stood behind, ''Boss, I can't find her.'' He said with disappointment.

Sebastian turned to face his right-hand man. The only one whom he trusts, ''Have I ever taken no for an answer, Ricci?''

Ricci appeared to be vexed at what he had just heard. ''I am trying-''

''I need her. You just have a night. She should be the first thing I see in the morning.'' His voice is dominating and intimidating.

Ricci, who came inside with a whole speech prepared in his head, could not utter a word anymore. He nodded while Sebastian waited for him to leave.

He went to his bed and poured himself a drink that was placed on the side table. The burning taste of the whisky calmed his senses to some extent, but he wasn't able to put her away from his head.

Ever since he saw her on that stormy night.... All he could think about was those eyes that were filled with worry for him. She is a good and kind-hearted girl, he knows that.... but he does not know what their encounter has brought to her.

What would Elysia have done if she knew that saving his life would cost her such a heavy price? Would she have left him on the streets to die? Or would she have saved him yet again?

*****

Ricci searched for that girl the whole night. From the animal clinic he got to know about her address but that place was empty. After inquiring from the people, he got to know that she wasn't living there for a week.

''Where is she?'' He murmured to himself and he needed that girl now.

''Do you know where she can be?'' He asked an old lady who lived right below her apartment.

''I guess she might be at Lauren's place. They are friends for a long time and mostly they do a sleepover.'' The lady knew Elysia better than anyone. She also makes food and gives it to her as she feels bad for her.

With the help of that woman, Ricci was finally able to get the address of Lauren's place.

He knocked on the door and waited until a young looking girl opened it for him. She squinted her eyes and glanced at him from head to toe. Man suited in a black suit, tall with a perfect mass of muscles, a tattoo peeking out of his shirt's collar and face deprived of any emotions.... At that moment, he looked like an angel of death to Lauren.

She trembled internally as she thought about Elysia. 'What if he is the man who raped her?' She was terrified.

''Am I talking to Miss. Elysia?'' He sternly asked and now Lauren was really scared.

''No. There is no Elysia here.'' She avoided looking into his eyes as they were piercing through her and she was afraid that her lie might be revealed.

''Then, you must be Miss. Lauren.'' He concluded.

Lauren's eyes snapped back at him. ''Who- who are you?'' She stuttered.

''I know, Miss. Elysia is here. I need to talk to her.'' Ricci was losing his patience. The girl looked terrified, that's why he did not force his way inside. He is not used to using his words.

''Look, Mr. Whatever you are. I told you there is no Elysia here. You must have the wrong person.'' She tried to act calm.

Ricci smirked. ''Stop lying to me. I know I am in the right place. Let me inside, otherwise I will brag inside myself.''

Lauren ran her tongue over the bottom lip. Her lips were turning dry. ''Please leave or I will call the police. You can't just brag in here.'' She glared.

Ricci leaned in closer to her and whispered, ''I can and I will. Let me see her and I will leave quietly without making a scene.''

Now Lauren was sure that this was the man who had ruined Elysia's innocence. While Elysia is scared of every man. She could not imagine her reaction upon seeing him.

Before Lauren could react, she heard a familiar voice. ''What are you doing at the door, Lauren?'' It was Elysia.

The man was leaning and his tall figure was kind of hidden behind Lauren, so she could not see him. However, when he stood straight and his eyes met with Elysia, fear instantly took over her face.

''Miss. Elysia, I need you to come with me.'' He casually said like they have been friends for a decade.

While Elysia trembled at the place. Her hands clenched fists so hard that her nails were digging into the palms. She went pale.

''Let go of me.'' She whispered.

Lauren instantly tried to close the door on the intruder but he was quick in his reflexes and he placed his feet to stop her.

''AHHHHH....!!!'' Elysia suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs and plopped on the floor. She placed her hands on her ear and continued to shout.

Ricci was also taken aback by the reaction he got from her.

''GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE.'' Lauren roared at the man and she did not care about his foot in between the door before slamming it shut.

Ricci, a man of strong senses, was shaken by Elysia.

Lauren ran towards her and took her in her embrace, ''Shhh... everything is fine. See, there is no one here.''

Elysia finally stopped screaming and looked around. When she saw that the door was closed and there was no one there, she finally calmed down. Her throat was hurting badly from screaming, but she did not care.

Ricci knew that something was wrong with the girl and, before reporting the situation to Sebastian, he decided to investigate the matter thoroughly. Most importantly, her unattended wound on the cheek and neck grabbed his attention.

It took him less than an hour to get to the hospital where she was taken a week ago.

Scaring people and making them spill the truth, is what they are perfect at.

''She is a drug addict and that was the reason for which she was brought here. Her friend told me that she burnt herself when she wasn't in her senses.'' The doctor reported him with fear.

Ricci nodded. Although he wasn't satisfied with the answers, the medical records were saying the same thing. But the fear he saw in her eyes...

He could not comprehend the meaning behind them.

After coming to Sebastian's penthouse, he told him each and everything.

Sebastian frowned. When he met her a month ago, there was no wound on her face and she looked normal. He could tell that she had never even seen drugs with her eyes in her life.

This matter wasn't as simple as it seems.

''You can leave. I will handle it on my own.''

Ricci nodded and when he turned to leave he heard Sebastian, ''Send Katherine. I need her for tonight.''

''Okay, boss.''

While Sebastian thought about what Ricci told him about Elysia. ''What's going on with her?'' He whispered to himself.

Soon, there was a knock on his door and he knew who was there. ''Come in.'' His deep and dominating voice resonated in the air.

A woman in just her black thongs and bra entered. She smirked upon seeing him naked, just a towel wrapped around his waist.

''Do you want me to please you?" She asked with a slaty voice.

''That's what you are here for, whore.'' He degraded her, knowing that she enjoys that.

Her smirk turned deeper, ''On your knees.'' He ordered and took off the towel.

His 9 inches of meat made his mouth water. She went perfectly on her knees to take him in her mouth. Sebastian looked at her and, without a warning, he held her ponytail and slammed himself in her mouth. It made her gag and caused her eyes to turn watery, but he knew that the bit*h could take him, no matter how rough he is with her.

She is one of the few girls who can tolerate his manhandling and they are capable of pleasing him in a way he wants.

Sebastian fucked her mouth hard and fast. Katherine placed her hands on his thighs to keep her balance. The drool was dripping down from her mouth.

''Suck that, slut." He said with his gritted teeth as he ravaged her mouth.

His grip on her ponytail got tight. She could feel him swelling in her mouth. He was close. So, Katherine gave him a hard suck which made Sebastian lose his mind.

He threw his head back and groaned, ''Just like that, Elysia. I am cumming.'' He moaned her name as he imagined her lips wrapped around his d**k.

Katherine was taken aback. She had never heard him moaning her name and now he was taking some other bit*h name. She pumped his length which she couldn't take in her mouth with her hands and caused him to spill his seeds in her mouth.

Like a perfect slut, she swallowed it.

''Who is Elysia?'' Katherine asked as she wiped the corner of her mouth.

Sebastian's dark eyes turned darker as he tried to get his erratic breathing back to normal.

''Get out.'' He coldly ordered.

Katherine sighed. Although she wanted to feel him in her c**t but tonight wasn't for her pleasure and she knew that she cannot ask this man questions.

Even though she was burning with a rage, she left as per his orders.
