In a dark underground basement, two men were present who were sitting across each other. One's hands and legs were tied with ropes and he was shivering , while the other was sitting with a totally emotionless face and with a dagger in his hand. He was running his fingers on the dagger as if it was the most smooth thing in the world. Yep, he is none other than THE REYANSH SINGH RATHORE.
" without wasting any time lets come to the point, I just want to know who sent you to steal the files from my office?" reyansh asked in a deadly cold voice. A shiver ran through the spine of the other man "no..body hu..ku..m" he answered stuttering. In a flick of a second reyansh pierced his right thigh with his dagger "ahhhhhhh" the man groaned. "now I am giving you a last chance, think and answer if you answer honestly then fine, but if you lie than they will be your last words"He spoke in a don't mess with me tone.
"chauhan" just hearing this he stood up from the chair, and walked out from there without speaking a single word. When he came out one of his men was there, "my dagger's inside, clean it and deliver it back safely to the palace" he ordered him. He nodded and asked "hukum what about the man who is inside?". "give him the same treatment we give to the betrayers" he said and left.
Now he was on his way to the palace in the car which was driven by a driver.
He was working on his laptop and was disturbed because of an incoming call. Still typing he picked up the call without looking at the caller id. It was his mom.
(the dialogues at odd number lines are of anika and the dialogues on the even number lines are of reyansh)
"reyansh raat ke 2 baj rahe hai , kuch khayal hai tumhe samay ka ki nahi?"
(Translation: reyansh its 2 a.m , do you even care about the time)
" bas raste me hu maa 20 min me pohoch jaunga , ap sojaye"
(Translation: i am on my way mom, i'll reach home in 20 min , you sleep)
"tu aja bas jaldi , uske baad hi neend ayegi mujhe tujhe pata toh hai"
(Translation: you just come fast, then only i'll be able to sleep you know that)
"bs a rha hu maa "
(Translation: i am just coming mom)
Then he ended the call and said the driver to drive faster to which he said "ji hukum"
After 15 mins in the rathore palace
His black mercedes entered the large gates of rathore palace. Everybody bowed in front of him as a gesture of respect, Without paying any heed he entered the place. Entering the large living room he saw his mom sitting on the sofa glaring at him. He removed his coat and shoes and kept his head in his mother's lap.
His mother started caressing his hair and he closed his eyes in response. After 5 mins his mother spoke "you didn't had your dinner right". He frowned and opened his eyes , then asked "how do you always know?", to which she said "none of your bussiness" and dragged him towards the dining room. She made him sit and served him the food. She too sat there too and sure he finishes his food. When he was done he wished her goodnight, pecked her forehead and After that both went to their respective rooms to sleep.
his pov
I finally entered my room and and sat on the couch. I started to prep for the upcoming meeting with the clients in washington DC. Its almost 2:45 a.m. So in washington it will be around 4:15 p.m. right now. I need to hurry up.
After almost an hour the meeting ended and I succeeded in convincing them. As soon as I closed my laptop I slumped on the couch for some rest. It was a long day. I wanted to attend this meeting in the office itself but then decided to come home and do it so that mom won't worry much and atleast sleep.
I wouldn't had to do this meeting this urgent but because of that bastard which I killed earlier,( yeah he would be already dead by now as that is what you get for betraying me).
He leaked the information of these clients and now I had to assure them and give them another new plan prepared by my team. Usually this work is done by other people in my company but these clients were very important so I decided to take it in my own hands , I didn't want another problem coming up by any chance.
I got up from the couch and straightly went to have a cold shower. The cold water was soothing my muscles and I was feeling a bit relieved. Then I wore my grey tracks and straightly went to bed to have a power nap.
I woke up at the sound of my alarm. I dismissed it and got up. It was 6:30 in the morning. I usually woke up at 5:30 but today was an exception because of yesterday's tiring chaos. I just wore a black vest on my grey tracks and went to hit the gym.
After an hour long satisfying workout session I went to take a shower. I got ready in a black coat , black pants and a black shirt , then atlast applied perfume.
I left my room around 8 a.m. so technically I had time for breakfast as my private jet would be ready by 9:30. I had to fly to mumbai today for an important business event. As I enterd the dining room I could hear my family talking, but just after my footsteps came in the range to their ears , there was tranquil silence in the whole room.
I sat on the head chair and soon my breakfast was served on the plate by the servants. I silently ate my breakfast. After I finished I announced "I am going to mumbai for some imortant work, so I will have my lunch and dinner there only". "ok, but return by 11 atleast or else your mom will keep worrying" said viraj rathore (reyansh's grandfather). I replied "ohk I will try" and touched my mom's feet and left the palace.
Within forty minutes I reached the airport and boarded my private jet. The jet took off and within 15 minutes an air hostess came to me and asked "would you like to have anything sir" while I was checking my mails. "No" I just gave cold and curt reply to her whithout lifting my eyes from the laptop and In no time she was out of sight.
After 1 hour I reached mumbai and exited the airport. I was on my way to the hotel and my phone rang, I picked It up and within no time I was pissed as the one on the other end informed me that the event got delayed and now I have to stay here for more four hours. I just hate my time being wasted. Now, as I had extra time and a headache, I told the driver to stop at a nearby appropriate café in order to grab some black coffee.
He stopped the car at a small cozy kind of café so the chances of me being recognised were slim. I got down the car to grab the coffee on my own as I liked doing my tasks on my own when I was alone, myself and not the hukum of udaipur.
I entered the lightly crowded café and the soft scent of lavendar filled my senses, it was quite a cozy one. I reached the counter and ordered a classic black coffee without sugar and the person taking the order smiled at me and went to the kitchen. As I was about to turn I felt a slight movement behind me. My senses got alert in a fringe of second and I thought about my blazer that I kept at a nearby table while entering which had my wallet.
I waited for 10 seconds so that the thief rushes to the main door beside me but he was slow ahhh I didn't like incompetent people. As I turned I saw a person picking up my wallet from the floor. Wooww what a series of events was going on to piss me off since yesterday. First that betrayer in the company, then lack of sleep, followed by the event getting delayed and now this. I saw that person glancing at me once and then keeping the wallet back in my blazer.
My hands were itching and were begging for some release but unfortunately it had to be a woman. "hey you! what do you think you can leave that easily" I spoke when I saw that woman leaving the main door. She turned towards me with nearly a frowned face but I couldn't decipher her exact reaction as she was wearing sunglasses. "what do you mean mister......whatever?" she spoke. "stop messing around you miss I saw what you did with the wallet" I spoke this time in a very harsh tone. "So?" she said , the audacity of this woman , oh god!
"not ashamed , I see"
"Why would be I"
"Simple, cause stealing is considered as a bad deed in normal people's dictionary"
"mister does this useless dictionary of yours have a word 'poor eyesight' cause you really have one"
"How dare you"
"Why can I not say that to you? are you somewhere's king or what?"
"if only you knew" i said in my mind.
"sir she's telling the truth, I checked it. You can see the cctv footage" a voice interrupted us. It was of the same person who took my order. I didn't realize when we catched attention of the others at the café. I went to him to check it myself and what I saw was exact opposite to what I thought. A person was trying to get my wallet but he was a man and when the woman standing behind me right now glared at him he dropped the wallet and ran from there.
After that what happened I knew. I turned and now noticed the woman properly, she didn't look like a thief. She was wearing baggy black ripped jeans and grey top.
"now did you get the word 'poor eyesight' properly in your dictionary or not", she said this while removing her sunglasses and I just froze on my place.
Those eyes.
No this can't be her.
I can never forget those enchanting brownish amber eyes.
