Bewitched His Soul

"I ...",Daniel looked into her eyes and she felt his eyes were so focused and sharp like a warrior.

She now understood how pressurized his enemies will felt when he interrogates them. She was now being in their situation and was nervous not knowing what will happen next.

"You ..,"Evelyn nodded her head as if asking him to continue.

"I want to…,"Daniel stated and Evelyn thought the anticipation will kill her.

Evelyn felt suffocated in his presence and tried to move back but Daniel was quick and leaned closer leaving no space between them.

As Daniel lifted his hand Evelyn screamed ,"Don't touch me , stay away."

He did not bother her words and moved his hands closer while Evelyn closed her eyes. Daniel put his hands around Evelyn's neck and lightly gave it a squeeze.

"Ahh,what are you doing ,"Evelyn opened her eyes and tried to remove his fingers but it was useless.

She never thought he will do something like this ,as always except the unexpected from Daniel .If he does not shock her and do something unpredicted then it's not Daniel Russo.

"I want to kill you ,"Daniel said each word in such furry as if he could not tolerate her presence.

"Because of your stupidity we are in this state .Instead of being grateful you are brave enough to challenge me ,"Daniel's jaw tightened.

For a second he really regretted putting Evelyn's safety above his work. He could have just left her there and gone to meet the scientist .Someone from her team would have noticed her absence and will come to find her.

"Leave me ,"Evelyn slapped his hand as she was having trouble breathing .

Only after seeing he had applied much more pressure than he intended to and she was seriously going to get injured did he take back his hand.

Evelyn started coughing and tried to massage her throat as it was badly paining.

She realized it was her fault, if not for her climbing the boat and then throwing the rowing sticks they would never have ended up in this forest. It was her carelessness which also dragged him down so she had no right to question him.

"I am sorry ,"Evelyn apologized in a low tone .

She was a very egoistic person and it was not easy for her to ask for forgiveness .But in this situation she knew she was wrong so decided to lower her pride .

"You better be ," Daniel said sternly.

Evelyn 's mouth was wide opened seeing him being so arrogant . Here she was accepting her mistake  so cannot he be a bigger person for once and let go of past things .

She should never have apologized and let him think that she was not feeling guilty about stuck in this forest.

Daniel turned around and started walking ,Evelyn raised her hand in the air and was throwing punches at him.

He did not hear any footsteps so turned back and asked ,"Are you not coming."

Evelyn awkwardly lowered her hand and pretended as if she was catching the leaves falling from the tree.

"Ya ,I am coming ,"Evelyn ran to catch up with him.                                                                                                         

She was silently following Daniel , not knowing where they were heading in this dense forest and he also refused to tell anything.

Evelyn was someone who has not done any physical  labor from the day she was born. There were maids for everything at her home and she was so spoiled that she even refused to hang back the clothes into the wardrobe.

She was finding it difficult to keep up with Daniel's walking speed .He was very tall and had long legs so he  took three steps by the time Evelyn has taken a step.

"Daniel, slow down ,"Evelyn stated.

"We don't have time , hurry up ,"Daniel said without turning back.

Evelyn was feeling tried as  she was running to match Daniel's pace .She was in such a hurry that she failed to see the rock it front of her and stepped on it making her fall down.

"Ahh..,"Evelyn screamed as her butt touched the ground. Daniel was worried hearing her screams and rushed to her side.

"Are you oaky,"Daniel asked.

"Do I look like ,"Evelyn whined in pain.

Since she was wearing heels she was injured quite badly.

"Let me see ,"Daniel extended his hand towards her feet .

"No need ,"Evelyn tried to retreat her feet.

"Be good , looks like you have got hurt severely, "Daniel spoke in a soft tone which was such rare case .For the one who was always ordering everyone around him , it felt different to be considerate of others feelings. Even he was surprised by  how caring he sounded.

Evelyn let him check her leg and she thought indirectly he has hurt her so let out  her grievances.

"It's all because of you , didn't I say I cannot walk quickly but you still refused to cooperate with me ,"Evelyn complained.

"You are bleeding,"Daniel said . As the sharp rock  pieces had pierced the sole of her foot there were tiny scratches and it has also stared to  bleed.

"What , where ,"Evelyn had failed to notice that her foot was bleeding as she was busy showing her anger at Daniel. 

"Can't you be little more careful while walking, "Daniel retreated his hand.

"It's all you fault , your fault I got hurt ,"Evelyn kept on blaming him.

"Who told you to wear heels ,"Daniel snapped.

"Wearing heels give you a aesthetic look , I wanted to look pretty ,"Evelyn pouted.

She was the type of person who dressed up even when she stayed at home so how can she not doll up when attending a social gathering .

"What is the need to look pretty always,"Daniel grunted.

He was the type of person who can get ready in about 15-20 minutes for any occasion .He always wore  branded items but never experimented with new styles .So he could not understand how someone  can be so obsessed about their appearance .He thought why will people waste time in dressing  up when there are far more important things to do.

"Of course how can someone like you understand . Your grumpy face scares everyone so what's the use of dressing up,"Evelyn scoffed.

"Even if you have a beautiful face it's not enough ..You need to dress up to be noticeable ,"Daniel mocked her.
