Lucifer's Innocent Wife

Calm Before The Storm

“Aahna, where are you girl?” My best-friend yelled in a loud voice. Well, I am right now getting ready for my bachelorette's party. Yes, I am getting married to my long time boyfriend and the love of my life, Advay. I can’t believe that I am going to marry him at last. I always have a crush on him from my school days, but he was the heartthrob of the school and I on the other hand was just a normal girl. Yeah, all my friends knew that I had a crush on him, but I always say no to such things as I always felt embarrassed to accept the fact that I like him.

When suddenly the door my room opened with a bang and there I see me best friend huffing while carrying a bottle in her hand. “Am I looking alright?” I asked her with a smile on my face. Sneha was now checking me out from top to bottom.

“Are you seriously going to wear salwar kameez(Traditional Indian clothing for women) in your own bachelorette's party? Aahna we are going to a club not to worship in front of God. Go and get changed. Here take this. Thank God, I have brought a nice dress for you.” Said Sneha whilst she was glaring at me. I then looked at the sexy black dress which was basically backless and the front was also having a low cut. Gosh, am I really going to wear this dress. I have never worn something like this and nor have I ever gone to any clubs before.

I then sighed softly and after that, I again started to change my clothes. Now, I have worn the dress which Sneha has brought for me and believe me, I really feel uncomfortable in this for my the sake of my friend’s happiness, I am ready to wear this as the party is not only for me but for her also as she finally got her dream job and for that, she is going overseas after my wedding.

“Now, you are looking like a s*x bomb and you don’t need to worry about the dress being backless as you hairs are long enough to hide your back.” Asserted Sneha while she was turning me here and there to look to check me out. When I saw my reflection in the mirror, I can’t believe that the person who is standing in front of the mirror is none other than me.

Yes, I am looking really nice in this short dress. My hairs are long enough then this dress. Most of the people always compliment me for my long and shiny hairs, which are cinnamon-brown in colour. They really go well with my milky skin tone. After that, she started to do my makeup, I really don’t like too much makeup and that’s why I told Sneha to do only light makeup, but she is she didn’t listen to me at all.

“Now you are looking that you are going for clubbing and not for worshipping. Wow, today you are looking so much enticing. If Advay saw you today he would have fallen all over you again. Let’s go otherwise, all the other girls will crash your house today. They are all waiting for us at the club and only we both are late.” Exclaimed Sneha in a low voice and thereafter, she started to drag me while she was grabbing me by my wrist.

After driving for some while we finally arrived at the club Ivy. This was for the first time that I am going to such a place as my mother always stopped me from going to such place because she is always concerned for my safety for some reason, but as I am getting married tomorrow so she gave me the permission today. Do you always want to do or to try something for the first time? Well, that’s the same case with me.

I don’t know why my mother is always so worried about my safety and because of that she never gave me freedom for anything except giving me permission to marry Advay. Right now, I am feeling like a free bird, I want to fly, I want to yell, I want to do everything that my mother stopped me from doing. Rebellious, right? But for me, it’s the feeling of freedom. Away from my mother’s overprotection behaviour and from her gaze.

We both then entered the club and the moment I step my foot inside the club, I felt each and everyone gaze on me and Sneha. I am feeling embarrassed now as I encountered this kind of thing for the first time. After that, I started to fix my clothes as the gazes of people are making me uncomfortable now. Sneha then lightly slapped on my hands, “Stop! You are looking just perfect so be confident about that.”

I only nodded at her while we both were heading towards the place where our rest of friends were sitting. They all have reserved a private area for today. I can’t believe that I have such great friends. Then I saw Pia running towards my direction and then she hugged me in a tight embrace. “Where were you soon to be a bride. I can’t believe that our of all of us you are going to get married first. I always thought that you would marry the guy which your mother will select for you.” I only looked at her with a forced smile as all my friends know my mother overprotective nature towards me.

“Enough with the talk. Let’s get drunk today everyone. I can’t believe that I am giving my Aahna to that jerk, I mean soon to be brother-in-law, Advay. Believe me, Aahna if he ever tried to hurt you, I will kill that bastard with my own hands.” Yelled Sneha in a loud voice while she was asking the waiter to bring the boozes for all of us.

“And we will help you too in that. As Aahna is really a kind-hearted girl and if someone dared to hurt her then we will definitely dig their grave.” Said the bunch of girls while they were walking to our ways and when I looked towards their direction a smile formed on my face. They all are my batch mates, I can’t believe that they all are here to celebrate with me.

Most of them are settled outside of the country for their work or because of their husband’s jobs, but they all are here just for me today. My eyes are now filled with tears, “Stop, don’t say anymore then this otherwise she will start to cry. You all know how much she loves to cry, right?” Said Sneha while she was patting me on my head. I only rolled my eyes at her, “You are such a meanie.” She only laughed at my statement and replied, “And you are such a cry baby.”

Then we all head back to our seats. They all were now having drinks, but I said no as I don’t like to drink at all, but what I didn’t know is that Sneha has already added alcohol in my mocktail. “Why my mocktail is tasting so weird?” And then I looked at Sneha who was now laughing. I then glared at her and asked, “You added something, right?”

“Well, who doesn’t drink on their own bachelorette's party? This night is known for being wild. You don’t have to worry as nothing will happen to you.” Replied Sneha while she was gulping her drink down. I am now feeling hot and it was feeling like that someone is taking my consciousness away. Maybe it’s one of the effects of the drinks. It’s feeling like I can see the whole world revolving around me.

When suddenly Pia yelled in a loud voice while she was raising the empty bottle of champagne in the air, “Let’s all play truth and dare.” All of them then started to gather around the table while pia was spinning the bottle on the table. The bottle then stopped spinning and now it was pointed towards Sneha. “Alright, so Sneha truth or dare?” Asked Pia with a grin on her face while she was looking at her.

“Always dare. So what I have to do? Tell me.” Replied Sneha with the same enthusiasm. “Umm. . . . . let me see. Alright, you have to ask that man his contact information.” Asserted Pia while pointing at the man who was drinking with his friends. She then nodded at us and we all started to cheer for her and then she brought the man’s contact information with ease.

Pia then again started to spin the bottle and now the bottle was pointing at me. Pia then without asking me about what I wanted to choose gave me the dare, “Go and bring the tie of the man who is sitting while surrounded by the guards.

“But. . . . . . but. . . . . . . You. . . . . . didn’t. . . . . . asked. . . . . . . me. . . . . . . . if. . . . . . I. . . . . . want. . . . . . . truth. . . . . . . or. . . . . . . dare?” I asked her in a stuttered voice while I was gripping my seat so that I won’t loose my balance.

Pia them gave me a side look and then she explained that why she didn’t give me the option, “We all know that you will only choose truth and there is nothing that you hide from us so we all know that asking you the truth is just waste of time. So that’s why we all already decided that we will give you only one option and that’s daring.”

I then sighed and after that, I glanced at the direction of the man, but I was not able to see his face clearly as he was still surrounded by a man in black. Thereupon, I started to buckle up myself to head to his way. I was now standing in front of the man, but before I could approach him a man in black with a handgun stood in front of me.

“Stop, otherwise, I will shoot you.” growled the man in an angry voice. What the hell, no one ever yelled at me in this manner. Is the man who is sitting a president or what? “Henry, what’s the matter?” Said the man in a deep voice who was bidding behind his men, but before Henry could reply to the man I pushed him away and now I am able to clearly see the man’s handsome face. He then glanced at my direction with his dark blue eyes. His eyes are beautiful, but they are giving me dangerous vibes.

He has high cheekbones and he is all muscular and all. He then pushed back his dark brown hairs away from his forehead. “What do you want a woman? Can’t you see that I am busy? Get lost, or I will shoot you personally.” Said the man in an irritated voice while he was still sucking the earlobes of the woman who was rubbing her hands around his groin.

“Disgusting,” I yelled at his face and then he got from his seat while shoving away the woman who was in his arms. “Woman, did you say something?” He was now looking at me with his blue eyes and for some reason, he was now stunned. He then smirked while looking at me and after that, he started to walk towards my direction. He was now standing only an inch apart from me and I discovered one more thing that apart from being insanely handsome, he was also quite tall.

I then shook my head to focus on the main topic, “Yes, I said, D-I-S-G-U-S-T-I-N-G.” This time I said each and every word clearly to his face, but the men around him started to gasp as I said something that I shouldn’t have. I then heard a man who was laughing at my stupidity, “This woman is either courageous or idiotic to mess with, Lucifer Ashford. Whatever it is God Bless her soul.”

Lucifer Ashford, maybe I have heard this name somewhere, but right now everything is fuzzy inside my head. I then remember my dare and after that, I grabbed him by his tie and then I started to smile while looking in his eyes. The man was now looking at me with a smug on his face. Thereupon, I only heard the voice of people gasping and chattering in low voice.

The man then pulled me closer towards him while grabbing me by my waist. “This is going to be fun.” He said in a low voice while he was sliding his fingers on my bareback. “Take her to my room. We are going to have a really romantic night tonight.” After that, he pushed me to one of his men, but before I could resist, his man hit me on my head with something and thereafter, I lost my consciousness.
