0 Celsius: To thaw a frozen heart

Chapter 15: 15 degree Celsius



Chapter 15: 15 degree Celsius

Inferno of emotions

His heart was broken

Cracked into two by events of past

Where the other part was hidden by him somewhere where it could never be found again.

She knew his heart like her own

As once they beated as a whole.

She was going to mend his broken heart.

Even if she had to break her own heart into two,

Just to complete the jigsaw of his heart's missing part.

Even if after it her heart would be sacrificed but still

knowing that his heart was complete she will be satisfied.

...................................................................

Walking down the streets alone with your phone battery dead, at 11 o clock at night. Through a

deserted street with sounds of cats meowing and stray dogs growling is an indication of a bad omen.

Unless an angel comes and removes the albatross from around your neck.

I was focused

Focused to reach without looking here and there and minding my own business.

Just like black side flaps near the eyes of a horse.

But what to do when your distractions come from above..

Raindrops decided to grace my with their presence

But how could they come alone

Along came gushing high velocity winds and thundering storm

Oh god why me!!

Picking up my pace was not a good decision..

As I landed with my twisted ankle in the middle of the muddy road.

A scream escaped my lips as I tried to move it

Shi**..Shi* man!!

10 minutes passed ....

My body was now shivering and my lips quivering...

Oh god I was going to die here!!

Then a miracle happened

I don't know if I should call it a miracle because no one can be trusted here at this place at this time.

But I didn't had any options at my disposal.

A BMW's high beam blinded my eyes and I shielded my eyes with my hand.

Screeching sound of tyres was heard and the car stopped few meters away...

My anxiety rose and my hands started trembling

What if ...??

All the worst case scenarios dominated my mind and I in spite of the pain tried to get up and leave.

As I put my weight on my left leg my right leg dragged along and I was able to stand.

Crouching and holding my thigh I tried to move forward but a sudden pain numbed me and I found

myself loose my balance.

Before I could fall two strong arms balanced me and helped me get up on my feet again.

I looked up to see brown eyes staring at me .

He had a chiselled jawline

Highlighted by subtle beard gave him a manly look.

The expensive velvet coat he was wearing was now drenched in rain

But he looked least bordered by it.

"It's okay you can put your weight on me"

His calm voice calmed my alarmed nerves.

Did I got lucky to be helped by such a gentleman.

His eyes looked genuinely concerned as his gaze shifted to my ankle.

"It looks swollen...can I drop you to your place..or a hospital?"

I was reluctant to ask help but he was my lost resort

"Th..anku"

I spoke with trembling lips and he realised how cold I was.

Completely unexpectedly my feet were lifted from the ground as he held me bridal style and started

moving towards his car..

"Ehhhh it's.....okay...I can wa..lk.."

I said feeling embarrassed and awkward getting carried by a stranger.

He ignored me and placed me softly on his cars leather seat.

Closing my door softly he got seated on the driver's seat and turned on the heaters to their maximum.

He started the drive and for few minutes silence prevailed.

"AR mansion...street 5 "

On hearing the address he looked at me...he smiled and nodded making me relax.

I kept looking around to see that he was not taking me somewhere else other than the address

mentioned

I guess he noticed this This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Don't worry I am not kidnapping you...we are just 5 minutes away"

He passed me a smile while I wrangler my hands together feeling very awkward.

Finally we reached

"Thank you....Mr....."

"Walker....Reynold Stone Walker"

His smile was addicting and I found myself returning it.

I shook his hand as we introduced ourselves.

"Sapphire Brown.."

"Miss Brown I don't think you will be able to reach you room in this condition...let me carry you to your

room and I'll try finding someone to heal your injury"

I nodded

I was getting anxious with his closeness...but I had no choice.

As soon as his one arms went under my legs and the other under my back

I blushed and tried to hold onto him.

I guided his way and he finally reached my small single bed room.

Placing me down he turned around to leave

"Thank you...so much"

I managed to say and he turned around and give me a wide smile.

"My pleasure"

With this he was gone and soon some of my co maids entered and helped me heal my swollen ankle.

...................................

The other side of the bed was empty as Andrea placed her hand on it

Supporting her weight on her elbows she lifted her self up .

There he was standing at his window still with a glass of wine in his hand .

The rain drops were tapping on the window breaking the silence of the night.

Her eyes were focused on him but his were focused on someone else.

His grip on the vine glass tightened as he watched a man carrying Sapphire up the stairs of his house.

Her hands on his neck lightened the fused spark in his heart.

He gulped the remaining vine in one go and turned his back from the window.

Placing the glass on the side table he laid on the bed and engulfed Andrea from behind.

Her Jasmine fragrance calmed him down and her presence was enough to forget what he just saw...
