She didn't reply. She was in pain and she didn't know if her tears were falling on his face or her tears fell on the ground.

Suddenly, Adrian felt bad for her tears and turned his face away from her. Katherine's eyes were still in pain and tears were flowing like a river. She was making every effort to stop her tears from falling on her face. He wanted her to punish her and torturing her.

He stood still as his heart did not allow him to see her in pain. He decided to work with his mind long back with the experiences in his life. 

Adrian stepped away from her and looked at her with a cold smile on his face and in a low voice said, " Your tears don't affect me anymore. I want you to feel pain and to feel the happiness you had when I hurt you. "

He too knew it was a lie. He blinded the eyes and ears of his heart and made it hard as stone. She started to feel cold as Adrian's eyes were piercing through her soul.

Katherine stood properly straight and tears were falling from her eyes. She tried to look away but he was like a force that just wouldn't let her go.

He was like an animal that was going to eat her. She could feel her body shaking and she was scared. She didn't know what was going to happen next.

Adrian's smile disappeared and he was staring at Katherine with a look that chilled her soul. She noticed wetness in his eyes and understood how much he hurt him and how much he suffered all these years.

" Why did you leave me without giving a proper reason? Why?" He questioned looking into her eyes. He needed to know the reason which was bugging in his mind for six years.

She lowered her face as she could not see him in a desperate state. She wanted to shout and tell him that it was never her intention to leave him but the situation made her take that decision. She wanted to hug him and cry on his chest. She wanted to tell him how much she missed him all these years. But she could not speak a single word to him.

" Shall I tell you, why did you leave me?" He continued.

"Because I had no money and I was struggling for my dream. So you left me without a single word. Isn't it?" He said, lifting her face.

She stared into his eyes helplessly.

He then said in a menacing tone, " I will make you suffer the same pain I felt when you left me for another man." 

As he was talking, he was standing in front of her. He grabbed her by the throat and started choking her. She tried to scream but no sound could get out of her parched throat.

She tried to look away but his eyes were looking into her soul. She could feel her eyes were about to burst from their sockets. As soon as he realized what he was doing and noticed she was about to faint when Adrian let her go. She started to breathe again. She was still standing on her feet.

Adrian looked at her with guilty. He could not believe what he did to her. He started banging his fist to the wall to punish those hands which tried to harm his love. Katherine's eyes widened with shock. 

" Ad.. Please stop. What are you doing? " She screamed with fear and held his wrist tightly.

He stopped and looked at her who was sobbing.

All of the sudden, they heard the footsteps of someone coming towards the cabin. She turned to see who it was but Adrian's eyes were still fixed on her.

He took a few steps back when he heard a knock on the door.
