"I stabbed him for every second I lived in pain and since no one was allowed to enter inside no one found out. I cut him into pieces just as he would have done and just like he did to others. Next day, when he didn't walk outside his brother (Ayaan) came in and I remember how horrified he looked". She laughs full-on, "That was the best scene ever because to have Ayaan- that monster horrified was the best thing ever. Anyways he tried to kill me but wasn't able to because everyone stopped him. He said he wanted my death to be slow and painful so they took me to the police station, had FIR and I was kept in the cold room with no clothes for days where they kept hitting me until I was done".

She looks in his eyes and she regrets it because the pain in them doesn't sit well with her.

"I was taken to the hospital because the case got out. I was under media attention and now they needed me alive. I don't know how long I stayed there but no one knew about I being hospitalized. Just a few hospital people so my case went on and on. The media angered the common people to the point they wanted my public execution and they blamed me for being a woman who ruins everything for other women and whatnot. Anyways, I was taken from hospital to court where I stand in half daze with few people in there and Eria in front of me declaring my crimes some of which I never did. She didn't stutter, stopped or even had shame in her eyes when she looked in my eyes. I knew that moment that she had turned into one of them. The hunger she had for winning and become a successful lawyer had taken her humanity away because with humanity a person can have only humanity, not fame, money and luxury. But I think someone who kept humanity alive in them that is far more expensive than anything".

She sighs, "Anyways I was declared life-sentenced and media was outraged. I was supposed to be transferred to some other provincial jail so I had to be on the bus. That day while we were on a deserted road the bus stopped with few more criminals with me in it. We were all confused until the door opened and there stood Eira, Owaib who was the officer on the case who got the proofs, Adam an underworld who covers his dark secrets, the guards of the bus and more".

She looks at their anxious faces holding on the side of her head because it starts to ache, "I was taken out. I was to be killed by them. Eira was there to make sure it looks like an angry mob did it because they hated me. Adam was asked to kill all the others and Owaib then proceed to beat me until I was dead with the others. They all laughed and joke as if I was nothing. They loved that I don't even make a sound. They beat me everywhere I remember just how much pain I was in until they thought I died because I fainted and my pulse was low. I looked at the bright sun that day for the last time before I shut my eyes down. I don't remember how but I was taken to the hospital. But, I was kept in a secret ward where I was treated by a woman who I found was Adam's ex-wife treated me. She told me Adam brought me here and had been taking care of me. His ex-wife was Izra. She had treated me before that too and begged Izra to save me because she knows he could do it".

No sound came out of anyone. The shock, betrayal and the agonies of their own were the only things that were louder than any voice ever cloud be. She throws the vase against the floor feeling her temper rising which was only rising higher to hide the pain she had felt all those years she had lived through that pain and the years after everything had gone down.

He couldn't even feel anything as he looks at his wife breaking everything that came in her sight in pure agony visible in her eyes. She was broken more than words will ever say and more than she might even know herself. Even when he had somehow become a part of her, he was still nowhere close to being half of her. He was just a small piece of hers nothing more.

He will never be able to save her.

She is a destruction that will take down everyone with it. Every single person involved will not able to live long enough and he had signed for it. He wasn't afraid of destruction or he wouldn't have stayed after the incident of rain. He wouldn't have been happy to see her alive again. He wouldn't have stayed all those times he could run away. He will not run away unless she says so.

The next day went by with publishing more proofs against Ayaan trying to keep him inside but the power he held wouldn't allow that to happen for long.

She sits on the couch when the doorbell rings and her husband opens the door to find a man standing there who asked for her. She raised her eye looking at the man.

"What are you doing here, Omar?" She asked confused

"I thought it was better to have a direct talk instead of emails because those can be hacked any given time. I shut down and erased the data completely so no one can get to me". Omar explained sitting on the couch, "That's your husband?".

She nodded looking at him forwarding her hand for him to take it, "Yes, he is".

"Cool! What's the next plan?" Omar asked looking at her laptop the back at her confused husband, "Right! I am her colleague or you could say something like that".

He nodded sitting beside his wife playing with the ring on her finger that he had gifted her, "How do you know her?"

"Actually, she found me and saved me". Omar laughed, "I was a drugged addicted and I went to the same place where she gets her bottle from. I was in a bad phase of my life with social pressure to be successful to build my own family and the country unemployment rate increases every day I was in a complete mess. My parents wasted their saving to make me a successful lawyer but the only successful lawyer in our filed were the one who had connections which I didn't. So, I bumped into her said some nonsense and some parts of my life struggle and she punched me. That's just how I ended in her apartment the next day and become a partner. She needed money while I need success so she helped me with the cases while I pay her half of the amount".

"So, you are working on Ayaan's case?" He asked hating to say that man name

"Yes! I have been working for years. I had the files ready and the plan too. She never wanted to fight back no matter how much I insisted but I guess there is time for everything". Omar explained as he phone rings with a message and so did hers

She opens her cell phone looking at the picture making her heart clench. A dead picture of Adam's ripped into small pieces. She feels her breathing getting heavy as she looks at the picture over and over until she feels everything vanishing around her.

She found herself back in the same basement she had lived all her teenage and adulthood in. The same blood around her and in front of her stands her ex-husband with his brother. Her ex-husband was covered in blood with marks all over his body and not one part was clear of it.

The mark she made with that knife that night.

"You thought we will let you live after what you have done". Her ex-husband laughs maniacal as his voice sends a shiver down her body, "You disobeyed your master and you know what the one who did that gets?".

In instant, he was right in front of her holding onto her hand and pushing the knife through it making her scream in agony.

"Death. Death will visit you soon after death visits all your love ones because what's the fun in simply killing you without having you go through the pain of watching them die. You cannot save anyone, my doll. You cannot control us. We are not ordinary we rule this world". He laughed punching her repeatedly wanting her dead

"Caira". She heard her husband screaming shaking her so hard that she feels her existence shaking with it

She looks at him frowning looking around because she was still in her apartment and in her husband comforting hold on her.

She was hallucinating.

But was her hallucinations will come true?

Perhaps.

"He is dead". Omar said gulping, "He killed him".

"He will kill everyone". She said hoarsely because her screaming from earlier had taken her ability to talk more, "He will take everyone away".

"So he is on the hunt?" Omar asked

She nodded, "Ayaan loves the hunt. He would watch his prey run before he kills it. He will come after everyone if we don't go after him".

"You mean to say that law will not do a thing?".

"Law is not for a monster like him. He needs to be executed because the law cannot hold him down for long. This paedophilia is increasing in numbers and most of them are the elite class that law can never touch. Their execution is the only way that we can have them scare and hideaway".

"It won't end".

"A simple change takes us years and even centuries to do and you think that killing a strong racket will happen in a day or a year. This took years to build this strong and it will take many more years and sacrifices to put an end to it".

Omar nodded, "We won't find his body, do we?"

She shakes his head, "He must have asked his men to bury it for him".

"Even when is locked away how is that he managed to have a man killed?".

"Because he was just a puppet like I was to him, he is to the people in the elite class who enjoys those video he uploaded for some cash. He is just their puppet providing them with their sick fantasies and satisfying them. The one who is behind him will come after everyone who tries to take him down. Even if he execute him there is no way those people who had paid him all these years will allow us to live freely. They will kill us someday maybe they are planning our murder as we speak".

"So, we die no matter what?"

"Yes". She answered feeling her husband hand tightening around her as she leans more into him

"That just means that even if it's one-man we are going to take him down no matter what and leave all the proofs for the world to see so they might wake from their slumber to know what's lurking around them".

"I doubt people would like to do much. Some might do for attention and others might not do a thing ignoring it completely thinking it will vanish. The story will stay alive for a week before people lose interest and I am sure the elite won't even allow it on any social media and channel".

"They control everything?"

"They made everything".

"So, what's the plan then?"

"I have something to take care of before that". She said looking at her husband

After a few hours, she stands in front of the house where his family resided without him. She feels her heart latching at her to not do this and to not cause herself this agony she might not live through. She needed to do it but her heart bleeds in doing it.

"Why are we here?" He asked confused

She took a deep breath masking her pain away looking at him, "We are not going to stay together anymore".

"What does that mean?" He asked taking a step towards her but she moves away quickly

"I don't need you. Stay away from me". Those words broke their world apart at the same time

His eyes filled with unbearable pain as he felt the sharp knife passing through his heart,"Please don't do this. Please don't leave me. I can't live without you. I won't be able to live".

She shakes her head as she feels tears rolling down her face feeling as she tries to hold onto the rope it only went farther away from her. No matter how much she tries to hold onto him he was never meant to be with her.

"No! You don't need me".

"I do. I do need you. You are my life, Caira. Don't do this to me I won't be able to live without you".

"You are my life, Rayyan and if you stay with me you won't live long and I cannot bare this".

"Then we can die together but don't torture us like this".

"This is not torture why do you not understand that if you spend another minute with me I will be the reason of your death".

"And if I spend another minute away from you it will be a sin. I promised to stay with you until the end not to leave you in between".

"Promises can be broken".

"Not the promises given in love".

"Love can end".

"Not a true love".

"Lover can die".

"Then the adorer will follow behind his lover".

She shakes her head as the both cry standing few inches away from one another.

"Live your life, my Rayyan. A life without me in it".
