A Slave To My Vengeful Lover

Anna's POV:

I can't move forward and can't take one more step, and my mind was blank after I realised its Alex...

When I called him with his name, he immediately ran to me and hugged me...

It's Alex, my cute little brother, and I can't control my emotions, and they outburst with tears and happiness that Alex is safe...

Mark makes me stabilize, and we sit before Alex at the dining table...

But when he asked about Mama, I don't know how to explain to him that our mother is dead, but Mark convinced him with a lie and made me understand that it's not the right time to tell him about the truth...

I don't know how Mark finds Alex, and I don't know how he knows about Alex...

All I can do is thanks to him for my lifetime and for his caretaking towards Alex and me...

So I break the silence and try to thank him with my whole heart...

Anna: Thank you so much, Mark...

Thank you is a simple and small word, I don't know how to thank you to you...

You deserve more than just a thank you.

You are really taking excellent care of Alex and me...

You are such a beautiful, kind-hearted person...

I am so lucky to have you in my life...

And you deserve a special place in my heart, and I never let you out from my heart...

Mark: Hey, Anna...

Cool...

I just did what I can do...

Anna: No, Mark, You really Brighten my world and...

Mark: and I will explain to you on my bed that how to thank me...

(I am shocked for his sudden statement and looked at Alex...

He didn't listen to us and busy in playing with paperweight...)

Mark: ok..?

(I smile and didn't look at him.)

Mark: I want a special thank you, Anna...

(He asked loudly this time, Alex looked at Mark)

Alex: Thank you, Mark...

Mark: you no need to thank me, your sister owes me a special thanks to me, so I am asking her...

(I am shocked that how dare he ask Alex about the special hug...)

Anna: Ok, Mark, stop talking before Alex...

(He smiled with his smirk face...

I know he will do something crazy at night, but I really owe him, so I agree with whatever he says...

In between our discussion, Nanny came with dinner bowl, and I immediately get up and introduce her Alex that he is my own little brother...

She looks happy by looking at Alex and arranges our dinner, and I help Alex to have the food and eating my food parallely...

Mark: You forget to take care of me after you met your little brother...

(I looked at Mark in shock, I never in my life ignore him. Why he thinks in such a way?)

Mark: last night you caressing me the same way by keeping the food in my mouth, now you forget me...

(I smile at him for his childish behavior, and I immediately keep the food into Mark's mouth casually...

He happily ate and asked me without a second thought in his mind...)

Mark: I like the last two bites, and especially I still remember how juicy it is...

(I widened my eyes to stop his discussion before the kid.

Finally, with Mark teasing, we all three finished our dinner, and I help both of them to have food, and in between, I take mine...

After our dinner, Mark lifted Alex and nod at me to follow him, and he takes me to another room where one side of the wall is filled with a big screen...

Alex: Wowww, you really have a big play station...

Mark: Yes, I came to this room after a long back...

Let's start the game...

Alex: Yesss...

(I understand that Mark didn't come to this room after his parent's tragedy.

I wonder by looking at the room that how mad he is on games.

I am very happy by looking at Mark that he is coming out of his depression and mingle with Alex like a kid, and particularly he is not Angry on Alex, and particularly he is treating him like his own brother...

I unnecessarily worried that Mark may hate him in another way, but I always doubt why he hates my father...

Alex scream interrupted me, and looked at them again that Alex lost his game and Mark win...

They again started their second game, and I am enjoying by looking at them...

Mark win the second game too, and he left Alex to play with the computer this time and sat beside me very closely...

Mark: I won the game, Anna…

Anna: Yes, I saw…

Mark: That's it?

(I looked at him in confusion and realized I should congratulate to him.)

Anna: Congratulation on winning over Alex.

Mark: Where is my winning kiss?

(In one shot he came close to me and just an inch gap between our lips, I didn't kiss him and turned my face because of Alex. But he didn't resist and hold my chin and peck on my lips and give a quick kiss and leave me. I immediately turned to Alex that he noticed us or not, but he is busy in playing the game.)

Mark: Tell me...

Anna: What?

Mark: Why don't you tell me about your younger brother?

(He is looking at me with his sharp eyes and waiting for my answer...

I took a long breath and explained to him...)

Anna: Actually, I don't want to burden you because you already taking care of me, so I don't want to place more pressure on you in the name of Alex; moreover, I think Alex is in his hostel with good facilities, so I think it's safe for him to stay there.

But when the continuous attacks take place, I am scared and enquired about him, and you know I lost my life after knowing that Alex is on leave and I think it's John and he may take Alex to torture him...

Luckily you saved Alex…

And I don't know how you know about him.

Mark: Do you think I really feel the burden to maintain you and your brother?

Anna: Actually, you are not, but I feel like we are troubling you...

(He stayed quiet for a few minutes, and I didn't tell him the other fact of my opinion that I am scared that he may treat Alex very harshly like he treats my dad...)

Anna: Why don't you tell me that Alex is under your supervision and how you know about him and his school address?

(He remained silent for few seconds and started his explanation...)

Mark: I want to keep this as a secret until Ria's case gets solved because we have a chance to catch John if he comes after this kid...

But I think John may threaten this kid if our plan failed. So I didn't take any risk and keep him under the supervision of Mona...

But after we entered into a relationship, it's not fair to hide from you, so I bring him to surprise you...

Anna: Mona?

(I am really shocked that Mona takes care of Alex all these days and didn't inform me anything about Alex. Maybe Mark and Tom may warn her to don't tell me anything.)

Mark: Yes, he is under the supervision of Mona, and she really takes good care, and Alex likes her company too...

Anna: I know Mona really takes good care with her wholehearted, and once she attached to the relationship, she never leaves...

Mark: Yes, you are true...

She takes promise from me, and I promised her without your permission...

Anna: what..?

Mark: she wants Alex to be with her after her trip finished...

(I am very happy how Mona likes my little Alex...

I don't have hesitation in objecting to her promise, and I am sure she takes more care than me on Alex...)

Anna: I am ok with it, Mark...

I am sure she will take excellent care of Alex than me...

But...

Mark: but?

Anna: Making Alex to stay with her may lead to threatening her life because one day or the other day, John will definitely find Alex whereabouts, and he may threaten Mona too...

I still remember how those bastards rip her top in the resort...

(Mark immediately pulled me close to him...)

Mark: Don't worry, Tom is staying with Mona, so she is safe...

Anna: Yes, but I don't want her in the danger zone…

Mark: Anna, I am sure Tom will take care of both Mona and Alex, and Mona is happy in caretaking Alex, and most importantly, Alex is safe under their supervision…

(I don't know what to say, and I just nod my head as yes for his decision.)
