(UNEDITED)

Adreano's POV :

James had planned a surprise birthday party for Ana. The party was in his backyard which was a good idea rather booking a club.

All my college gang were present. They all had their girls besides them except me and Max. Well, I don't think Max would ever get a girl. He just needs girls for a night. Most of what he earns drains in paying the hookers. We all know that he's going to die alone most probably with HIV. But he's a fun guy. Our group without him is nothing.

The high music faded away and was replaced by a romantic song. Everybody cheered for Ana and James as they started dancing. Slowly everyone joined them. One girl approached me but I nodded a no and went inside the house. Well, a dance is no harm but I was not in a great mood.

Some couples were making out on the sofa and some were doing it against the wall. The noises they were making was making me sick. I needed to smoke but I didn't wanted to stay a bit longer between these moaning people. I needed a quiet place.

I went upstairs. James's bedroom had a terrace which was the best place to be alone. The lobby was quiet. James's room was at the end. As I reached near the door I heard screaming voices. 'No Please. No..noo..'

Ugghh not again!

People have not even spared James's room. I felt bad for him. Where will he take his girl? I started to go back to the party but then I heard the screaming again and the girl cried 'Help' I thought of going into the room. But what if they are trying something new which included sadist actions? I didn't wanted to ruin their mood so I decided to go to the party and inform James's that he can't go back to his messed up room.

The girl screamed again 'Ana!' The intensity of pain in her voice was high. Why would the girl shout Ana's name? I sensed something wrong was happening. I ran back to the room and flung opened the door. I was shocked of what I saw. Max was on top of Iva. Ana was topless and Max had almost take off her skirt down her knees. He stopped when he saw me.

I could feel the heat running to every cell of my body. Without wasting anytime I ran up to him and pushed him away from Iva. Max fell on the ground and I heard a crack of his bone. He kept his hand on his back and was trying to get up but failed as I was above him punching him on his face. The punches came one after another.

"He'll die. Please leave him. You'll get into trouble." I heard Iva's weak voice.

I turned back to Iva. She was holding the sheets up to her neck. Her hairs were messed up. Tears were flooding down her eyes. The veins of my brain were throbbing and I turned around to throw some kicks. As I kicked the first time he coughed up blood while his nose was already bleeding.

"Please sir. Leave him." Iva squeaked.

I took some deep breaths and stood up. I took out my coat and gave it to Iva. She wore the coat and put on her skirt.

"Let's go." I said.

Without saying anything she got up and we started to leave. I tried to hold her but she hesitated so I kept my hands back to my pockets. While descending down the stairs she stumbled on one of the steps and i held her hands and threw another hand on her waist. She looked at me.

"Relax." I said.

She wasn't moving.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Sprain." She replied.

Sprain in her ankles; which meant she can't walk any further and the only option I had was to pick her up and make way out of the house. I picked her in my arms. She first hesitated but then relaxed. I was smiling inside; she trusts me.

"I want to go home." She said.

"You can't go like this."

We remained still for a while.

"You wait in the car I will come back with Ana and James in a minute." I said and approached the house.

"Don't call them. I will go with you." I heard Iva struggling with her voice to reach me.

I turned back. "Are you sure?"

She nodded in assurance.

There was a war going inside me. I wanted to kill Max but Iva's voice brought the sparkle of fireworks which made me smile. I didn't wanted Iva to go to Ana. I wanted her to be with me because I knew I will take care of her more than her friend.

Iva was lying in the backseat covering herself with my coat. It was a silent drive. Though Iva wasn't crying anymore I could hear her screaming. I never ever expected that something like this will to happen with Iva.

"Iva, it's not the right time and situation to go my mansion. If you don't mind we can go to my...uh...my apartment in the city." I somehow managed to speak.

Though mom, dad or grandma will not ask me anything but I didn't wanted to embarrass Iva in front of my family. She was not in a state to be in front of anyone.

"Okay sir." Her voice was like rain, cold.

I smiled once again.

I opened the car's door and held Iva again in my arms. It was past midnight and no one was around the building or in the elevator. I pushed the 20th floor button and waited. The elevator had mirror on all the three sides. I accidentally glanced at the mirror and was surprised watching Iva looking at me.

I don't know how we reached the 20th floor so early. In normal days it feels like forever and now with Iva in my arms we reached in a zoop.

I managed to open the door with Iva in my arms. I entered in and settled Iva on the couch.

"I'll be back." I said and left the living room.

Iva's POV :

I was in Adreano's apartment. My mouth and eyes were hot and dry. The room was big and of course beautiful but I was not in a state to entertain my eyes. Instead I was watching the painting hanging proudly on the wall. It was a huge painting of a cage in which a man was screaming and the keys was in his hands. I was not so good in understanding paintings but this one I surely understood.

Adreano was back with a sweat shirt and a pajama. He gave them to me and showed me the bathroom. I simply nodded and went in to change my dress. The bathroom had a full size length mirror, a big Jacuzzi and exotic bathing soaps and perfumes. I was not so happy looking at bare my body. My reflection only made me cry again and more. There were bite marks on my neck and stomach and scratches on my breasts. Max is an animal! I screamed and cried in pain.

I heard Adreano knocking the door. "Hey Iva, are you okay?"

His voice was soft and I could imagine his concerned face.

"Yes...I..I will be out in two minutes."

He said nothing and went away. I rubbed the soap and gel vigorously on my body. The was pain near the biting marks and the scratching but it made me rub my body more.

I felt like tearing my skin off. The places he touched me I wanted to rip it off my body.

I came out. Adreano was not in the living room. I sat in the couch. The tv was on and some business news channel was playing. I didn't had anything to do but watch the boring news. The female was talking something about stock market. There was a ring on the bell. I got startled. Who was it? Max? But he wasn't in a condition to wake up. What if anyone has complained about Adreano to the police? I immediately ran across the hall to find Adreano. He was not in the kitchen, not in terrace. Where the hell he is? I was panicking. I ran into a room but it was also empty.

"Iva, what are you doing here?" Adreano's voice soothed my voice. Thank God he is here.

I turned around to see him. The view just made my eyes open wide and my jaws open. AD had just came out of shower. A white towel was wrapped around his waist. His hairs were wet and his toned body had few droplets of water slipping down to the towel. Something was bouncing in my arteries; maybe the hormones.

"Iva?" He asked again.

The bell again rang.

"Someone's at..at..the door." I said gulping a lump.
