Bewitched His Soul

Her eyes were blurred due to tears and she could not see whether it's a man or a woman .She wiped her tears and the backside of the man came into her view.

A spark of hope ignited in her heart and thought god has not left her hand. Evelyn quickened her footsteps so that she can meet that man before he goes away.

She happiness turned into anger when she discovered that the person in front of her was none than Daniel . Looks like he had not gone too far ,now she will not let him go , how dare he decided to abandon her without thinking about the consequences.

Daniel has finished washing his hands and legs, he splashed the cold water from the lake on his face .

As he heard someone's footsteps , he turned around to spot Evelyn running towards him.

"You woke up …,"Daniel trailed off.

"Daniel ,you bastard .I hate you ,"Evelyn looked furious.

"What happened, "Daniel was confused.

"Are you asking me that , I thought Russo's are true to their word ,"Evelyn fumed.

"Why are you bringing my family, "Daniel frowned. He did not like anyone ridiculing his family name.

Evelyn's anger rose seeing how Daniel was pretending to be innocent after putting her in danger .

"How could you do that ,I trusted you ,"Evelyn started to hit his chest.

"Stop throwing tantrums,tell me what's your problem, "Daniel held her hands .

"My problem is you ,I am such a fool to think you will be true to your word ,"Evelyn tried to kick him .

"Stop talking in riddles .I don't have patience for all this ,"Daniel said sternly.

Evelyn hated how he was so inconsiderate of her feelings, it's always what he wanted and never what the other person may need.

"You left me behind , if I had not found you by accident then what would have happen to me ,"Evelyn somehow freed her hand and this time started to hit him with more force.

"Evelyn you have mistaken. Let me explain ,"Daniel stated.

"I am smarter than you give credit to ,"Evelyn grunted .She was getting annoyed thinking how not only did he fool her once but also trying to do it again.

"I did not leave you behind ,"Daniel said.

"Stop lying ,"Evelyn gritted her teeth.

"Why will I do that ,"Daniel asked.

"You got caught so you trying to cover your mistake ,"Evelyn scowled.

"Listen to me once , then you can decided whether I am lying or not ,"Daniel tried to explain.

"No,no. I will not be convinced by you ,"Evelyn covered her ears.

"Stop being so childish ,"Daniel was irritated seeing her irrational behavior.

"I can't hear you ,"Evelyn yelled.

Daniel tried to pull her hands and Evelyn moved back to avoid him. Suddenly she lost her balance and fell backwards into the lack.

"Oh ,no ,"Daniel cursed and jumped into the lake .

He did not see her anywhere ,he panicked thinking she may have drowned not knowing swimming.

"Evelyn ,Evelyn where are you ,"Daniel screamed and started to swim.

Few seconds later someone squeezed his neck from behind .Daniel rolled his eyes seeing her actions, held her arm and pulled her towards his front.

"Ah,I won't let you win ,"As Evelyn tried to wrap her hands around his neck , he held both her hands and lifted it on top of her head.

Still Evelyn did not give up and struggled to fight with him. Daniel's strength was obviously more than Evelyn so she could not do anything.

Evelyn got tired after knowing she could not physically defeat him so bit on his neck.

"Ouch ,"Daniel left her hand and rubbed his neck.

Evelyn turned around and started to swim to the store .Daniel quickly chased her and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Go away ,"Evelyn pushed his hand .

Daniel got to know that now is not the time to be gentle with her , if he had to make her listen to him then he need to be harsh. He put his hand around her. waste and turned her toward him.

"Ahh, leave me ,"As Evelyn tried to struggle Daniel pulled her closer to him.

"After lying to me now you are using your strength on a pitiful woman, "Evelyn hissed.

"Who is pitiful ,you ,"Daniel chuckled .She was the type of woman who fought battles in storm ,how can anyone treat her like an innocent maiden.

"I can't talk with you anymore, "Evelyn put her hands on his chest and pushed him.

"Enough ,"Daniel snapped.

Evelyn shivered ,he looked really pissed off .She decided to stay still and all her anger disappeared seeing his blood shot eyes and feared whether she had made a mountain out of a molehill.

"You will silently listen to me , not a word will come out of your mouth until I finish ,"Daniel commanded. Evelyn gulped and forgot to take back her hands from his chest.

"I got up early and since you were sleeping so peacefully I did not want to wake you up. Yesterday I had noticed this lake so came here to wash my face. Since the lake was very nearby I left you alone thinking I will come back. It's just back luck you woke up quickly and jumped into conclusions not finding me there,"Daniel explained.

In fact whole night Daniel did not sleep because of Evelyn being next to him. He was usually an early riser and since he felt uncomfortable because of Evelyn he woke up before sunrise .Having nothing to do he just walked around trying to get fresh air. He did not tell how her close presence disturbed him so much whole night.

Looking into his eyes Evelyn know he was genuine, she felt bad for assuming something else .

"I am sorry,"Evelyn apologized sincerely.

"Remember to never raise your voice ,I don't like it ,"Daniel warned her .

He was the one who was always questioned everyone and here this tiny girl acted as if he was entitled to act as her caretaker.

"Okay,"Evelyn responded in a soft tone.

But who know she acted so obedient only this second and few hours later she will be bossing around Daniel.
