In the morning when I opened my eyes I found myself on my bed. I look around but there are no traces of Hercules. Suddenly I heard the loud sound on the door and I climbed down the bed to open the door. I found Mike on the door with the tray of breakfast. I greet him good morning and he greets me back. I told him to come inside and he put the table on my bed. "Hope he didn't hurt you yesterday, " said Mike while sitting on the bed. "Tom was keeping eye on me," I asked Mike and he nods his head. "It's shocking, Hercules never gave this kind of job to Tom before, " he said to me and I started making coffee for Mike. When I passed him a mug, he gave me a questioning look because he brought that breakfast for me. "I don't like coffee in the morning but you have this breakfast with me, " I said to him and he smiled at me. "Admit that you love my company...." He said and I passed him a small smile. "Mike, cant I stay away from this mansion. I mean I don't want to live here, " I said to mike but he made a helpless face. I know he had nothing in his hands but he can talk to Hercules. "Hercules doesn't trust you Neha and he won't let you go away from this mansion," he said to me and I nod my head. I sit beside Mike and made a sandwich for him which he has like a small kid in front of me. "So today you'll join William company as their employee, tell me, how are you feeling?" Asked Mike in a very excited tone but my heart starts beating in fear. When Mike noticed my expressions, he snapped his fingers in front of my eyes to take me out of my imaginary world. I shook my head and lick my lips "don't worry nothing will happen to you. You are Hercules's responsibility and he promised your mom to keep you safe " Mike assured me but poor Mike has no idea what I had at Jerry's office. I joined the hand of Jerry to destroy Hercules. Mike wiped my tears and I closed my eyes "Hope nothing went wrong, " I said. Mike cupped my face "Never betray Hercules, that's the only thing you can do to keep yourself safe from him. I heard him saying to Ariel that he knew you don't love Arjun, " said Mike, and I instantly look into the eyes of Mike. Mike pat my cheek and kissed my head, at the same time Hercules walked into my room without a knock and he saw Mike kissing my head. Mike instantly got up and start coughing badly, I picked the glass of water and made him drink it. All the time Hercules was staring at us and Mike was staring at Hercules with a fearful gaze. I pat the back of Mike but he told me that he has some important work and he'll meet me later. "But you haven't finished your breakfast Mike, " I said so he picked the sandwich and walked out of my room. Now I turned my gaze at Hercules and look at him with so much disgust. " you have no right to enter inside this room until I am living here sir, " I said to him but Hercules didn't say anything so I continue once again. "I don't like what you had done the last night, " I said to him and picked the tray from the bed and put it on the table. " I need some details from Jerry's office and I want you to mix this powder in this drink, " he said to me and passed me the bottle of something. I empty that bottle into the water and start drinking it, I thought Hercules will stop me but he didn't instead he stare at me like an i***t. After drinking the full glass of water, I look at Hercules "it was water...." I asked him and he nods his head. I didn't say anything to him but he staring at me like he wants to know something from me. I licked my lips and look at Hercules, I don't know why? But whenever I look into his eyes my throat becomes dry in fear and my heart starts beating so fast like it wants to come out of my chest. "I am not a God Sir if you have some question you can ask after all I am your slave until Arjun accept your sister, " I said to Hercules "Why you drunk the bottle which I gave you to mix in Jerry's drink, " he asked and I smiled at his question. "Because I don't trust you and your family. What if you gave me the poison to mix in Jerry sir's drink and police put me behind the bars, " I said to him. "But you could die if I actually gave you the bottle of poison, " he said but this time his tone was a little louder. "Mike said you promised my mom to keep me safe, he also said that till now you never break your promise, " I said to him the exact words of Mike. Hercules took out his cell phone and showed me the brown pen drive which I saw in the car key of Jerry yesterday when I went to visit his office. "This pen drive has all the information of his new projects and I want you to copy that Data for me, " he said and I nod my head. "But Jerry sir keep this pen drive in his car keys and I am sure this drive will be passcode protected, " I said to Hercules but he showed me some kind of device and put it in my hand. When he touched me I felt like thunder occurred inside me and I pulled my hand away from him. He gave me a strange look and start telling me about the device. "All you have to do is to put his Pendrive into this whole and on this red button. This device will automatically crack the passcode of his Pendrive, " said Hercules. "His office is highly advance, all the doors have scanning machines, those machines will directly scrutinize this device near me, " I said to Hercules and amble towards my luggage to take my dress out of it. "How do you know so much about his office, " he asked and I stopped to look at him. "I love technology and his office is the ocean of highly Advance equipment, " I said to Hercules. "Don't worry no one will check your purses and this device has a special layer over it, that layer will help that device to hide from scanning cameras, " he said to me and I nod my head. "I'll try my best to copy that data but I am not promising anything, " I said to Hercules and look at him. "Do you want to say something more? " I asked him but for few seconds he didn't say anything then he opened his mouth and pierced me so deeply. "I don't want you to whoring around my men, maintain your distance from Mike because next time if I saw you near him I'll throw me out of this mansion, " he said to me, and with tear-filled eyes, I look down. I don't know why I always let him hurt me like this, what is his problem? What he wants from me, God. I never had done anything wrong with him but the day I bumped into him, he is creating problems in my life. Mom always said one thing to me: words have no power to hurt you but the person who said those mean words to you makes you hurt that's why to be sure to taste your words before spitting them out. Well, my mom lied because Hercules means nothing to me but still his words hurt me so harshly. I sit on my bed, and my hand on my chest, when I closed my eyes I saw the ray of hope but suddenly darkness clouded on that hope and Hercules appeared in front of my eyes. He is yelling at me, he is calling me w***e. I instantly opened my eyes and covered my both ears, hot tears start rolling from my eyes which I was holding for so long. Silly words cause trills because they're ludicrous and funny. Happy words paint endless smiles and swallow troubles whole. Thoughtful words are thus because they make the day feel sunny. But hurtful words are such that pierce the heart and weigh the soul and that's what Hercules words had done with me and my soul. I got up and walked into my washroom to take a bath, I took a quick shower and wiped my wet body. Then I applied a lotion which has a very aromatic fragrance, then I wore my black high waist pant with a white sleeveless crop top, I tug that top inside my pant and start applying makeup on my face. I put maroon lip color on my lips and look at my image in the mirror. I am looking ready for my first day at the William office. I wore my heels and picked my bag, I didn't put the device inside my bag which Hercules gave me. I don't want to put myself in any trouble, I don't trust anyone here and Jerry is one of the biggest bastard guys in the USA. Magazines printed him as the bad boy of the USA, and he is pretty much famous for his bad behavior with girls. Suddenly my gaze fell on my hand on which I was wearing the bracelet of Vikram, then last night memories hit me so hard. It's Hercules, he is the one who stayed with me in this room last night. I amble downstairs in speed and my gaze falls on Marry who is feeding little Angel. When Angel's gaze fell on me, she got up from her chair and run towards me. Once again the image of my unborn baby appeared in front of my eyes and I spread my arm for my little Angel. She hugged me as her life depends on me, there is no anger in her eyes for me anymore. "Are you not angry with me anymore, " I asked her and she shook her head in no manner? I kissed her head and picked her up in my arms. I took her towards the dining room and made her sit on the dining chair. Hercules walked into the dining room with Tom and they both stare at me. "You think she can do this work, " asked Tom to Hercules but his gaze is fixed on me. "She is Indian, and Jerry knew how much I hate Indians, " said Hercules and kissed the cheek of Angel. Angel kissed him back and he sits on his chair. "I need my bracelet back, ( Hercules look at me ) don't you dare to lie to me, I know it's you who took my bracelet out of my hand, " I said to Hercules but Ariel doesn't like my tone with her brother and she glared at me so angrily. "Control your tongue around my brother you little girl before we cut your tongue," she said to me and I look at Ariel. "I guess you should say those words to your brother who stole my bracelet from my hand when I was lying unconscious. (I hit my head ) oh, I forgot I can't expect anything good from you, " I said to Ariel and look at Hercules. "I am not scared of you so I don't need to lie to you, yes I have your bracelet and I have no plans to give you back until I got my data from Jerry's Pendrive, now leave the mansion before you get late for office, " he said to me and I grit my teeth in anger. "Wao you joined office?" Asked little Angel and I smiled in her direction. When I was walking out of the mansion, I felt the penetrating gaze of Hercules on my back but I didn't look back. Tom opened the door for me and told me to sit inside the car. I did what he told me to do and I rested my head on the window of the car. "Keep your eyes and ears open at the office, listen to everything very carefully and act according to it. Today Jerry's parents will visit the office, try to stay close to Jerry all the time so you can hear what they are talking, " tom instructed me and I nod my head. Once again tom dropped me at the same bus stop and he Parked his car away from the stop. I was about to book the cab for myself for suddenly a beautiful sweptail stand in front of me and Jerry opened the door. I greet him good morning and he told me to get inside the car. I look around, four-five people are staring at me and the car of jerry, then I look towards the car of Tom but he is standing far away from this bus stop. I am scared to sit with jerry inside his car but I can't say no to him so with a heavy heart I sit inside his car. I closed the door and took a deep breath to calm my scared beating heart. My fists are clenched so tightly and I am shaking my leg in nervousness, that is my very old habit and my parents always scold me for that. Suddenly I felt the hand of Jerry on my thigh and I jolt terrifyingly. I pushed his hand away and start breathing so heavily. When I realized what I had done, I look at tom and hold my ears instantly. "I am sorry, I am really sorry I wasn't planning to behave like that, you suddenly put your hand on my thigh and I got startled," I explained my side to Jerry and he nods his head. I am wearing the lenses plus my earrings that's why Jerry didn't say anything to me inside the car. He parked his car and we both walked into the private elevator which is only reserved for Jerry. We reached the top floor from where we can see the entire city. I greet Kelly and she smiled back, I guess she is happy to see me. "Ms. Neha I want to see you in my cabin, " said Jerry, and I nod my head. I said bye to Kelly and walked into the cabin of Jerry but the moment I stepped inside his cabin and saw him standing at the door, my leg twisted. I was. About to fall but he was quick to grab me in his arms. "I guess you love slipping in my cabin, " said Jerry, and I said sorry to him. "Could....could you please leave me....I am standing on my feet now, " I said to him but he only stares at me in my eyes and I start looking in another direction. Jerry smiled but I don't know why then he leaves my waist and told me to sit down, I did what he told me to do and sit on the couch but I am not comfortable. His wired gaze is making me so uncomfortable. I amble near me and passed me a white bag, I look at the bag and then I look at Jerry " I want you to wear this for me and I'll pay the good amount for that. " he said and I was about to scream at him in anger but before I do that he put his hand on my lips. "My parents are coming today and I want to introduce you to them as my wife, don't worry I'll pay you 50k $ for that, " he said and removed his hand from my mouth. "They want to fix me with one of my relatives and I am not ready to say bye-bye to my freedom. I'll help you to destroy Hercules and you'll help me to get out of this situation, " he said and take out the bundle of dollars, he put that bundle in my hand. "25k $, rest you'll get when you finished my work, " he said but I pulled my hand back and the bundle falls on the floor. I bend down to pick the bundle and said sorry to God. "I can't stay with you as your wife, nor I go with you to your parent's house for dinners. Your parents will catch your lie so easily, " I said to Jerry and he smiled. "Don't worry, I'll tell my parents that your family is not aware of your wedding with me and you need time to convince your family. That's why you are not living with me, " he said to me but still, I am not sure what to say to Jerry. "I don't know what to say, I never act before, " I said to Jerry and he held both my hands in his arms. "Trust me, girl, you are a natural actor and you'll rock, my parents are going out of the country for a month so don't worry they'll not call you for dinner for a month. " Jerry assured me but I guess he doesn't understand, how it's stressful it is for me to decide at this moment. If anything goes wrong both Hercules and Jerry will kill me. "I need time to think, " I said to him but he shook his head in no. "No darling you have no time nor you have a choice. You have to act like my wife in front of my parents and save my ass from them or else they'll fix my marriage and make me the married man. And trust me I don't want to become the reason for so many deaths, " he said and his words made me horrified. "Don't be scared, loads of girls are madly In love with me, they all will commit sucide if I get married. Please say yes to me for those poor girls " he said to me and I slowly nod my head in a yea manner.....
