Interesting, I don’t know why, but her name is sounding very familiar to me. I don’t know why people enjoy to settle down when they start to get ahead in their business. Women are not helpful for anything. They are only the best in one thing and that’s to relieve someone stress. For me, they are just my bed warmers and nothing more.
Tsk, so much drama for a thing which won’t even last long. I then looked at the person who brought the invitation card for me.
He was trembling in fear as I was walking closer to him. “Have you done something that you shouldn’t have? Otherwise, you don’t have any reason for trembling in fear and look at your forehead. It’s covered with sweat.” I said to him in a cold voice while I was looking at him with a dead look on my face.
Generally, people get scared by my intimating aura, but my men don’t get scared until they have done something wrong. Now, I only have to find exactly what he is hiding. Well, that’s also kind of fun. I am known to be the ruthless man. So, I think I should live up to my name at least, right?
I then wiped the sweat from his forehead with my handkerchief. He was more than shocked by my sudden action and then he started to plead and beg to me in a stuttered voice, “No. . . . . no. . . . . . . boss. . . . . . I. . . . . . . didn’t. . . . . . . . do. . . . . . . . anything. . . . . . . . . wrong. . . . . . . please. . . . . . . . let. . . . . . . . me. . . . . . . . . go.”
“Well, I was just kidding. Don’t get scared by my jokes. You can go now and have some rest as I don’t think that you have good health. So, go and relax, alright Mason?” I said to him with a smile on my face. Poor Mason, he doesn’t know what is going to happen with him in just a few hours.
Without saying anything he bowed to me and after that, he started to dash away from the room. When he finally left the room, I took the lighter out of my pocket and thereafter, I lit the handkerchief on fire by which I wiped his sweat.
Disgusting. After saying that word in my mind a hint of a smile appeared on my face as I remember how my little kitten said the same word on my face. My fierce and innocent kitten you will eventually be mine and that’s a promise of Lucifer Ashford.
The remaining men which were present in the room looked at me with wide eyes as for them watching me smiling will be a foreign thing. After that, I cleared my throat and then I walked back to my chair. Thereafter, I sat on it and then I started to tap the table with an incomprehensible expression on my face.
“I want you to follow Mason and tell me every little detail about him and also bring an Indian sherwani (a traditional Indian outfit for men) for me for that damn wedding.” I asserted to them while looking at their direction with a blank face. Well, I can understand their language and their customs also, as my mother was an Indian woman.
They all only nodded to my command and after that, they took their leave. Now, I was all alone in the room. Now all that is left is to wait for tomorrow.
When suddenly my gaze falls on the invitation card which was kept on the table. Aahna Malhotra, I think I will get to know all my answers tomorrow at your wedding as I think that we do have a connection.
The Next Morning
I was busy in trying the sherwani which my men brought for me for wearing at the wedding. When suddenly, someone knocked at my door and when I turned around to look at the person a smile appeared on my face. “What’s the news on Mason?” I asked my right-hand man who is also my friend from my childhood, Steve.
“You need to come with me, Luce. I need to show you something.” He replied to me with a blank look on his face. I nodded at him and after that, I started to walk out of the room while wearing the same sherwani which I selected to wear at my business partner wedding.
Steve was now silently following me without saying anything. This thing only happens when Steve is angry at something. Well, let’s see what interesting things are waiting for me today. After that, we sat in my car and then he started to drive me to place and for some reason I know where we are going.
A smirk appeared on my face when he stopped in front of someone’s house. Thereafter, I got off the car and my other men also appeared just after our arrival. Now, I was walking towards the entrance of the house while my men were following me.
I then rolled the sleeves of my sherwani and then I forwarded my palm while looking towards Steve and he immediately understands the meaning behind my action and after that, he handed me the handgun. Well, here I come Zoe.
After looking at my face the guard immediately opened the main gate as this house belongs to none other than me. After waking some more, I finally reached the bedroom from where I can hear loud sounds of moaning and lovemaking. Now, this is something that you shouldn’t have done Zoe.
Then one of the men shoots at the lock of the door and then I opened the room with a bang. There I saw Mason and Zoe having wild s*x.
They then looked towards my direction with a shocked look on their face and after that, I made a fake hurtful look while looking at them and then I said to them in a cold voice while I was having an unreadable expression on my face, “You know, you both have hurt me. Why did you do this with me, Zoe? I provided you everything because of your financial conditions and this is how you repaid me, by betraying my trust on you. I am very sad today.
You do remember how you begged me to make you one of my women and this is how you pay me back. I did tell you that I don’t like to share the things which are mine, right? You do know that you are under a contract with me that you will only serve me on the bed and no one else, but why did you breach the contract, sweetheart?
And you, Mason, you do know what you have done, right? Then you have only one option left with you and you do know about it. Then why waste my time do it as fast as you can. Otherwise, if I will get involved then you won’t be able to bear the pain. So, the choice is now yours.”
After that, I walked towards the table which was placed near the bed and then I comfortably sat on the couch. Thereafter, I kept the handgun on the table which I was holding. Zoe was now looking at me with wide eyes and then Mason started to walk towards the table while he was having a pale face.
He then picked the gun from the table and then he kept the muzzle of the handgun on his head. Well, he is getting what he deserves and in my dictionary, there is only one ending for the one who tried to betray me and that’s death.
When suddenly he pointed the handgun muzzle at my direction and to this, my men also pointed their guns at his direction, but I stopped them while showing them the sign to lower down their gun. After that, I got up from the couch and then I started to walk towards his direction.
He started to warn me in a stuttered tone while he was pointing the muzzle of the gun at my direction, “Don’t. . . . . . come. . . . . . . . closer. . . . . . . to. . . . . . us. . . . . . Otherwise. . . . . . . . . I. . . . . . . will. . . . . . shoot. . . . . . . you. . . . . . . I. . . . . . . . Know. . . . . that . . . . . . the . . . . . . . . one. . . . . . who. . . . . . created. . . . . . financial. . . . . . problem. . . . . . . . . for. . . . . . . . Zoe. . . . . . . . is. . . . . . . . . you. . . . . . . . as. . . . . . . . . you. . . . . . . wanted. . . . . . . . her.”
I was now standing only an inch apart from him and then I kept the muzzle of the handgun on my forehead and after that, I unlocked the safety lock of the handgun with a smirk on my face and then I whispered to him in a low and deep voice, “Wow, you got everything right, but you won’t get any reward for the right answer.
Well, let me help you by unlocking the gun. So that you can shoot me, but the question is are you courageous enough to do that. Come on, shoot me. Why are your hands trembling? Nah, you can’t kill me. So, there is only one option left for you and that’s to finish yourself.”
Mason understood that he is no match for me and then after looking one last time at Zoe with a painful smile he shot him while keeping the muzzle of the handgun on his forehead. After there, he fell on the ground. Tsk, my clothes got the stain of the blood. I need to buy a new sherwani as there are only a few hours left for the wedding.
I then looked at Zoe who was sitting on the bed with a stunned look on her face and after coming out of her trance, she started to run towards Mason body while wrapping her impure body with the bedsheet, but before she could cry while putting her head on his dead body.
I grabbed her by her wrist and then pulled her closer to me. She then looked straight at me into my eyes for the first time and after that, she started to yell while looking at me, “You cruel and ruthless man. Why just why did you kill the last hope of my life.
Weren’t you happy after destroying and ruining me completely? What more do you want from me? I pray to God that like I am crying for my love right now in the future you will also cry for the one you will fall in love with. I hope she will also leave you and the one who will be destroyed at that time will be you and not anyone else.
You always make fun of love and emotions, right? I hope that you will also go through all the pain of loving someone. At that time you will also. . . . . . . . .”
So annoying and noisy, I shoot at her immediately as I don’t want to hear a lecture from a worthless woman. Well, she should be happy that I have given them a chance to stay together in the afterlife. But first I need to go to the place where I can buy a new sherwani.
After that, I ordered my men to clear all the mess and then I left the place with Steve. He was now driving and after some time we finally arrived at the place from where I can get some nice clothes.
Thereafter, I got off the car, but after entering the place my gaze fell on the person whom I was trying to find so desperately. ‘My little kitten.’ I mumbled in a low voice while looking at her direction with an incomprehensible look on my face.
