I looked toward Zee and noticed that he was looking casual.. Such a good actor!
So I immediately changed my expression and said with a faint smile, "Of course no, I meet him for the first time here.. I was just asking if he wanted a glass of water or not.." I'm such a terrible liar gosh...
Marcus looked at me with narrowed eyes, but eventually, he believed me.. thank god..
With that, Stella and Zee I mean Dean, left for their home immediately.. I couldn't ask much to Zee, but he said he would contact me soon, and I really hope he does that soon..since I have a lot's to tell him..
Days went by.. 2 days went in a blink of eyes since Zee saw me with Marcus.. but he didn't contact me yet..
Currently, I'm sitting on my balcony and looking at the garden.. because there's no one in this vast mansion other than me and some maids.. even Marcus left for work in the early morning..
Suddenly I felt my pocket vibrating.. I noticed that I was getting a call from the phone which Zee Gave me.. I immediately picked it up.
"Hello, Cassie.." I heard Zee from the other side..
"Yes, Zee.. thank god you finally called me.." I said in a complaining tone.. because I've been waiting for his call for the last two days..
"Sorry, I was stuck in some work.. I'm currently in the city mall..at Rosaliena Cafe.. can you come here??" Zee told me..but how can I leave this house with this vast security!
"Um Zee.. how can I leave this house? Marcus won't allow me.." I said to him.. After a few seconds, I heard him again..
"Ok, do according to what I'll say..." With that, he gave me an idea.. and a smile crept on my face since I knew this idea could work..
I immediately cut the call and went to the washroom to get ready..
After a few minutes, I went down and noticed a few maids working in the kitchen..
"Cough* cough*" I cleared my throat to get their attention, and they immediately looked towards me..
"Do you need anything, ma'am??" Someone very old maid asked me..
"I want some Italian snacks.. actually I'm craving for them.. do you have that?" I said with a big smile..
She looked around and said with an anxious face "Sorry, ma'am, but I exactly don't know which snacks you want.. if you could tell me the name, I would bring it from the market.."
"I don't think you'll find it since it is found only in a particular shop..so I'll tag with you.." I said, and she started hesitating..
I cleared my voice and said "no need to worry since your master told you all to do whatever I want.. moreover, I'll inform him.."
Still, she was hesitating, but she finally got ready, and we both went towards the market with a group of bodyguards, of course..
After almost 15 minutes we reached at a shop.. we were roaming around in a ShopRite while I was looking for Zee and from far I noticed him at a restaurant.. giving me signs to come towards him..
I noticed that the maid who came with me was busy in the products while bodyguards were waiting outside..so I grabbed the chance and went out immediately towards Zee..
Finally, I went inside of the restaurant..and Zee pulled me into a tight hug.. "Thank god you're fine.." he said..I also returned the hug..after that, we both sat near the window..
"Why are you with Marcus Knight?" Zee immediately asked me.. I gave him an eye roll and said, "Why are you being called as Dean?"
"Hey, I asked the question first" he said with a pout..
I smiled faintly and said, "He is Lucifer" .. As soon as Zee Heard me, his eyes went wide..
"What!! He's Lucifer? He's the bastard who bought you five years ago??" Zee said with wide eyes..
I looked towards the floor and nodded my head.. after that, I narrated my story shortly to him..
Zee slammed his hands on the table and said, "That bastard married you by force!!! I'm going to kill him"
Everyone around us looked towards us because of the noise.. I quickly made Zee calm down..
"Come with me.. I'll take you back in Russia.." Zee held my hand and said..
I looked toward his face and saw the helplessness.. I also want to escape from Marcus but not at the cost of Zee's life.. after spending a few days with him, I understood that he's not someone ordinary.. he can kill anyone without thinking once, so I can't pull anyone; else in this trouble..
So I slowly shook my head and said, "I'm already married to him, Zee.. even if I want to leave him, I know he will find me within a day, so it's of no use.. I better live with him and look for a way to get a divorce from him.." I said..
Even after that, Zee requested me to leave with him, but still, I denied..
"By the way, why Stella called you Dean? And is she really your Girlfriend, Zee??" I asked..
Zee suddenly looked pale as he said thoughtfully, "No, she's not. And for now, I can't say much but remember not to say anything about my real identity.. I'm here for something very important.."
I wanted to ask more but suddenly he got a call, and he told me to wait for his next call.. with that I again came back at the shop, and Zee left the market..
As I came back I noticed that maid was standing near the exit.. so I quickly went beside her side and said that I was lost.. surprisingly she didn't say anything..
We both returned back at home..it was only evening.. I know it will take another hour for Marcus to come back home..
I happily went inside of my room by thinking about my meeting with Zee and about the reason why I rejected him about going back with him.. I don't know why I said no... Maybe something inside of my heart is melting for Marcus ..as I thought about him, a small smile crept on my face..
As soon as I opened the door of my room.. a dark shadow fell on my legs.. I looked up and noticed Marcus sitting on the edge of my bed with his phone in hand..
I was surprised after seeing him so early today..'Did he got to know about my meeting?' I started sweating already..
Still, with my heart in hand, I walked inside..and asked, "you came back early today?"
But instead of answering my question, he asked, "Where did you went?"
And I gulped down my saliva.. "I went to the Mar..market.." my voice also broke down in the middle..
He looked towards my eyes, and then I noticed his fierce red eyes, which looked so scary that I took a step back..
Silence.... silence.... silence..
The whole room was silent..he didn't said anything else.. suddenly he stood up and came Infront of me..
"Go on the corner and sit on your Keens with both arms up.. remember, don't put your hands down until I say.. " He spouted angrily..
And I was shocked..what the f**k is he saying?!
"What! And why will I listen to you? I'm your wife, not your fuxking pet .." I also shouted furiously..
And the next thing he did was out of my imagination... With one of his hands, he pulled my hair from my back and pulled me near of his face..
"You're my pet..which I bought with 20 million dollars.. you're my wife for name and nothing else.. Do you even deserve to become my wife?? Wife of the underworld Lord?!" His every word made a slice of my heart.. I know I don't love him but still, his words were so harsh that my tears started rolling down from my cheeks instantly..
With that he pushed me back by my hair and shouted furiously, "GO AND KNEEL.."
I didn't said anything else because all the hopes I had for him just died a minute ago...
I simply went near of a corner and sat down on my knees..and kept my hand up..while tears kept rolling down through my cheeks like a broken dam.. I wanted to stop my tears were not stopping at all..
I heard the sound of a door slamming.. I didn't even looked towards him..
I slowly looked towards the sky and stared at the Moon. "Why did you left me alone here mamma.. I was always unwanted by everyone..I was unwanted by my Dad..even now, I'm unwanted by my Husband.. why mamma, why? " I murmured while tears kept flowing down....

Otherside, As soon as Marcus went inside of his Study room, he broke everything.. the whole room was covered with broken glasses, papers and many more..
His eyes were still looking murderous.. finally, after destroying everything, he sat in a corner.. even his hands were bleeding because of broken glasses prices..
He slowly opened his phone, and a picture of Cassandra and Dean hugging each other came out.. he again stared at the smiling face of Cassandra and Dean.. his eyes were bloody red..
"Why? Why Cassandra? Didn't you promised to love me in the future? Didn't you said you'll only admire me and love me? Didn't you said you'll only marry me in the future?? But now, why can't you accept me as your husband? Why can't you love me the way I love you?" Marcus whispered as his eyes became teary.. He could never imagine talking rudely with her, but today he harmed her.. because he could not control himself after seeing her picture with Dean. Top of that, she even lied to him..why!!!
With that he called Alex and said, "I want Dean's full biography.. his every single information.. I don't think he is any normal citizen.. something is very suspicious about him.."
"You'll get the full bio within tonight Boss.." Alex said immediately after hearing the heavy voice of his boss.. he even saw the picture of Cassandra and Dean as the bodyguard gave that picture to him first..
With that, Marcus cut the call and stared towards the Moon..and rested his head on the wall ...
**********
Both of them were staring towards the Moon with Different pains.. Both of their hearts were bleeding miserably, but they could not even share how miserable they were feeling..
**********
At 5 am..
Marcus woke up after getting a call from Alex..
"Boss, I've sent the whole bio of Dean via email.." Alex said..
"OK, I'll check it.." Marcus said and noticed the messy room..which was filled with his blood.
"Boss, can you please check it now? It might be something essential for you.. I think you should check it first," and Marcus's eyebrows squirted together after hearing him.. because Alex never sounded so impatient before…
Marcus cut his call and opened the Biography of Dean.. after reading it for a minute; his eyes widened in shock.. his face instantly turned pale..
'What have you done Marcus! Why the f**k did you hurt her!! s**t!'
With that, he quickly stood up and ran towards Cassandra's room like a mad bull.. even the maids were surprised after seeing his messy hair, bloody hand, and anxious face..
But Marcus didn't care anything..his main priority was now Cassandra.. with that, he quickly opened the door of Cassandra's room, and the next scene was enough to give him a heart attack..
