Raakshas - A human demon novel Chapter 14

Pari's p.o.v

I am in this dungeon for hours without any food and water. I am too much hungry and thirsty too. I don't know how many hours I have to be in this hell. After my argument with Raakshas he didn't come to see me and I am glad for that. Seeing his disgusting face I feel like puke.

Right now, I am not only worried about my family but also for those innocent girls who are in Raakshas's captivity. I can't even imagine what will happen with them when they will be sold in different countries!

"Hey God, why you are testing me! Please, show me a path from getting out of this hell. I don't know what's that sick monster is planning for me," I said with my teary eyes looking at the ceiling.

Suddenly, the door of this dungeon get burst opened and a middle-aged man entered with a food plate in his hand. He is wearing a kurta with pyjama and looking at his attire I am feeling that he is a Muslim.

Seeing me he gave me a genuine smile and asked me," you must be Pari, right?"

" Yeah, but who are you? I asked him in confusion.

He came forward and said smiling," I am Abdul Qureshi. You can call me Abdul Chacha( uncle) just the way Raakshas do."

So, he is Raakshas's uncle. Is he more dangerous than Raakshas? But, looking at his genuine smile I am feeling that he is not cruel like Raakshas. But, I can't trust him. These mafia people are disgusting and psychos. They are capable of doing anything.

He sat beside me and gave the food plate in my hand. He said giving me a fatherly smile," you must be hungry. Eat food."

Seeing him I remembered my father and my already upset mind became more upset thinking about my father. I don't know what's Raakahas doing with him!

" I am not hungry," I replied sternly thinking that there might be poison in the food. I don't trust Raakahas. What if he wanted to kill me by poisoning!

Abdul chacha chuckled and said having a bite from the food," Don't worry. I will not poison you. See I am also eating the same food."

Seeing the food and after his assurance about the food I couldn't resist my hunger anymore and started eating hurriedly. I am stuffing the food so fastly like I was hungry for decades. I didn't care that Abdul chacha is looking at me.

" Now, I am understanding why Raakshas is so mad for you. I have to admit that you are really beautiful. You look like a fairy from any Fairyland," Abdul chacha complimented me and patted my head.

I drank the water and said sarcastically," I wish I wouldn't look like a fairy. Then, I might haven't caught that monster's attention. His name suits him. Raakshas(demon)!!"

" You must be very angry with Raakshas.Trust me, Raakshas was not a monster. He was made like that," Abdul chacha said to me having an unbearable expression on his face.

I just rolled my eyes and said sternly," I am not interested to know about that monster's life".

Hearing me he just looked at me widening his eyes. He was going to say something when I asked him politely to divert from Raakshas's topic," Can you tell me where is my sister?"

He chuckled and said," She is safe and sound. You don't have to worry about her."

" Please, can you help me to escape from here?" I asked him hoping that he might help me. He is looking very generous and kind.

" I am afraid that I can't. Without Raakshas's permission, I can't do that," He replied softly spilling water on my hope.

I sighed and said lowering my voice but enough loud so that he can hear me," How can I expect that you will help me! After all, you are also that monster's man."

This time he looked at me and said taking a deep breath," If you come to know about his miserable past then you might haven't said like that. Raakshas was never a Raakshas( demon). He was made like that by this world's cruelty. He was just 10 years old when he was forced to take weapon in his hand."

" Is that so? Are you here to gain my sympathy for that monster from me? Then, I will tell that you have failed miserably," I almost snapped at Abdul chacha.

This time he stood up and said softly," I am not here to gain your sympathy. But, trust me Raakshas is a good person from heart."

" How much good is he I already know that! Your dear Raakshas has given me the demo already," I replied sarcastically letting out a humorous smile. I remembered how he humiliated me every time. I will never forgive him for humiliating me in front of my father.

I looked at Abdul chacha and found that he is going to say something. Before he could utter any sound I said to him sternly," you have already told me that you can't help me. So, please just leave me alone."

He didn't say anything further and left the dungeon without glancing back. I punched the nearby wall with utter frustration. My heart's pain is too much that I didn't feel the pain in my hand.

Why my Destiny became like that! First, Azhar's betrayal and now Raakshas! Hey God! Please help me and my family to come out of this hell.
