Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

Markus immediately checked the content, only to find a white masquerade mask inside the fallen box.

He looked back at Kizy, who was now drenched in cold sweat, fear evident in her shiny eyes.

"What happened?" He asked in a careful but gentle voice.

But Kizy was completely frozen, not answering him at all. And this scared Markus a lot.

He held Kizy by both her shoulders before shaking her.

"Answer me Kizy!" He said, shaking her all the time.

Kizy suddenly looked him in the eye, before saying.

"He… he knows.. he knows." She said in a trembling voice.

"Who?" Markus asked.

But Kizy was speaking gibberish, none of her words had any meaning.

"He knows… he will come… you.. you can\'t save me… I can\'t hide anymore!!" Kizy kept speaking.

Markus tried to patiently ask her calmly, but to no avail.

Finally he shook her hard.

"Kizy!! Kizy, look at me!!" He yelled and he somehow successfully managed to grab her attention.

"You are strong! Nobody can harm you. And with me here, nobody can even dream of touching you. Is that clear?" He said in a firm voice.

Though he didn\'t know what exactly was making Kizy react like this, he only knew that he would always protect her.

Even if he didn\'t have any feelings for her, Markus would have protected her, because Kizy was his wife, his woman. How could he let someone else scare her.

Kizy just looked blankly at him, not replying at all.

"We are together. I will protect you. Is that clear?" His voice was much more calm than earlier.

Kizy simply nodded, finally registering what Markus was speaking.

But she was still shivering.

Markus carried her princess style and placed her on the sofa. 

"Bring a glass of water." He ordered the butler who had witnessed the entire scene just now.

The butler ran and came back with a glass of water.

Markus made Kizy drink it, patting her back, rubbing her head gently all the time.

Once her breathing had normalised, he bent down, their faces on the same level, making Kizy look him in the eye.

"Nobody can touch even a single strand of your hair till the time I am alive. The day someone harms you, will be the day I will breathe my last breath." Markus said in a gentle yet firm voice, as if making a promise to himself rather than Kizy.

Kizy nodded at his statement, a little composed from earlier.

But Markus knew that deep down, Kizy was still not in a perfect state of mind.

"I have a surprise for you." He said with a smile, trying to divert her attention.

Kizy looked at him, not saying anything.

But Markus didn\'t care for that. He simply picked her up once bridal style once again, walking towards their backyard.

And once they were out, Kizy was stunned speechless. The warmth and light from the scene in front of her fading her dark and cold memories bit by bit.

A sofa was placed at the edge of the pool, covered with curtains and fairy lights from all sides, the lights being reflected brightly in the pool.

Along with the curtain were there photos attached everywhere, surrounding them from three sides.

Few plants were placed in no regular pattern here and there.

Overall the place looked cozy and comfortable, giving a homely warm vibe.

Markus, who was still carrying Kizy, walked towards the sofa, gently placing her on it. Once he was sure that Kizy was comfortable, he sat beside her, before clicking a button, which made Kizy open her mouth wide, awestruck.

The pool lightened up after the click, white fairy lights covering it from edges along with rose petals spread all over while a blue fairy light was present at the bottom of the pool, shaped in letters forming "Happy Birthday Little Lamb!".

And finally Kizy gave a genuine smile, which had blossomed from the bottom of her heart.

"Do you like this?" Markus asked with hopes, as if a little kid standing expectedly to receive praises from his parents.

"I loved this!" Kizy said, mesmerized by the breathtaking view.

"Happy birthday!!" Markus said, but his voice was different from morning, filled with affection, love and all very different emotions that Kizy had never seen in him.

"Thank you Markus!" Kizy said, her tone sincere.

"Bring it!!" Markus shouted and soon a chocolate cake was brought in by the old chef.

"Young Master made it for you. All by himself." The old chef didn\'t forget to praise his young master, who had wasted two cakes before being satisfied with this one.

It wasn\'t that the previous two cakes were bad in taste, or didn\'t look edible enough. But their young master wanted only one thing - Perfection.

Thus the two good cakes were fed to their dustbins, even when the old chef along with the butler and head maid insisted on keeping it.

Kizy just looked with surprise at Markus before looking back at the beautiful chocolate cake which was in no way inferior to the professional made cakes.

"Thank you for the cake and all your efforts." Kizy said with a smile, politely thanking Markus, old chef, butler and the head maid.

Rest three of them bowed and left, while Kizy made her wish before blowing the candles, finally cutting the cake.

Markus looked at Kizy with affectionate eyes.

Soon their dinner was served in the same place and both of them had a peaceful dinner before ending the day together, embracing each other beneath the starry night sky, surrounded by fairy lights and lovely rose aroma, watching the clear blue water reflecting the fairy lights while the air seemed a little pink.

Kizy, who was feeling a little sleepy, slept on the sofa, holding Markus\'s hand, feeling secure.

Once she was deep asleep, Markus took out his phone, before texting Joel, as he neither wanted to leave Kizy alone, nor disturb her sleep by calling Joel.

"Find the sender of the parcel." Markus texted, his face dark.
