Neha's pov: I opened my eyes and found myself in the arms of Hercules. His arms are tightly snaked around my waist, I tilted my head up and noticed that he is staring at me.
"Could you please leave me? " I said to him in a little hard tone and he ferociously raised his brow. I instantly look down and remove his hand away from my waist.
This time Hercules let me get up, I rubbed my palm on my face and start looking for my cell phone. Finally, my gaze fell on my cell phone but it's choked under the butts of Hercules.
I looked at Hercules but when I found his gaze on me I moved my face in the other direction. "I need my cell phone," I said to him.
"I don't have your cell phone, " he replied to me.
I angrily turned my face towards Hercules and look at him with a hard gaze. "It's there..." I said to Hercules and pointed my finger towards his bum.
Fuck this is so embarrassing! Hercules looked at my cell phone then he looked at me. He moved his bum and picked my cell phone.
I was about to grab my cell phone but he glared at me. Before I ask him for my cell phone, we heard the landing announcement of Pilot.
Hercules held my waist and pulled me on his lap, "what are you doing...?" I asked Hercules in a little angry tone but Instead of giving me an answer, he called the pilot.
"One hour is still left then why we are landing on the other airport, " asked Hercules to his pilot.
"Sir, the weather is not good, before any problem occurs, I have to land the plane as soon as possible for safety reasons, " said the pilot before Hercules said anything to his pilot, I snatched the phone from his hand.
"How much far south Bastar from here? " I asked the pilot in a tensed tone. "Ma'am this is my first time in India, " he said and I cursed.
"You can land the plane Jimmy, " said Hercules and his pilot cut the call. I was about to fall from the lap of Hercules but he wrapped his arm tightly around my waist.
The moment we land, I got up from the lap of Hercules and called Rana, he picked my call in two rings.
"Rana?" I called Rana's name.
Rana: Yes Ma'am...?" He said in a very polite tone
"I am here, could you please track my location and send someone to pick me up? " I asked him
Rana: Don't worry ma'am, I'll be there in an hour, " he said and cut the call.
I amble towards the exit door but Hercules held my hand and pulled me back into his arms, his grip is so tight around my waist and I can feel his hot breath on my neck.
"Don't forget that you are only here for a few days a Mrs. Knight, and next time if you dare to snatch anything from my hand, you'll see the worst side of mine, " said Hercules in rage and I slowly nodded my hand.
He leaves my waist and I instantly ran out of the plane, but the moment I step out of the plane, the rain-drenched me completely. I cursed under my breath and about to run once again but my leg slipped.
But before I hit my head, Tom caged me in his arms. We both stared at each other for few seconds, "Tom I have no relationship with your boss, " I told Tom when I see anger and tension in his eyes for me.
Instead of giving me a reply Tom pushed me away and open the umbrella for Hercules.
Tom's behavior is truly very suspicious and mysterious but right now I don't have time to think about his behavior. I came here to meet Vikram and I have to find some way to reach him as soon as possible.
"Are you f*****g planning to get sick in this weather? " Hercules yelled at me in anger from the back when he saw me drenched in the heavy rain.
I ignored Hercules and run towards the airport, the airport staff passed me towels and checked me from top to bottom. Hercules and Tom also stand beside me after minutes and Tom started talking to the Airport security team.
I noticed that loads of people's gaze is stuck on Hercules but Hercules is so busy on the phone that's why he didn't notice how many people are staring at him because of his deadly looks.
I instantly removed my gaze from Hercules before he noticed me staring at him and looked at Tom.
Tom paid some amount to the chief of the airport and look at Hercules. "Boss we can rest in the hotel until the rain stopped, the weather is not good to travel at this time, " said Tom but I frowned.
Tom wants to rest in the hotel when he is aware of the condition of Vikram. I glared at Tom but he ignored me. Well, I don't give a damn about Tom.
I planned to amble towards the exit door so I can call Rana and asked him where he is but before I take step towards the exit area, Hercules held my hand and passed me a cold glare.
"Where do you think you are going?" He asked me like I am his private property, I tried to pull my hand out of his grip but he clasped my hand more tightly.
"Leave my hand or I'll scream Mr. Knight..." I said to Hercules in a very loud tone. All the people around us started staring at me and Hercules.
I look around and then I turned my gaze back on Hercules, who is now gritting his teeth in rage.
"I want to meet Vikram, please leave my hand...," I said to Hercules but he didn't say anything to me.
"ma'am the weather is not suitable for traveling now, " said the head chef of the airport, and I looked at him.
Before I say anything to the chief, my cell phone started ringing and I saw Rana's no.
I picked his call " Ma'am I am stuck due to heavy rainfall, I'll need two hours to reach your location, " said Rana and I closed my eyes in frustration.
"How is he...?" I asked Rana about Vikram and he sighed loudly. "He is out of danger but he needs bed rest for a month, " said Rana, and tears fall out of my eyes.
"Did you call Uncle aunty? " I asked Rana
Rana: No, Sir instructed me not to call them.., " said Rana and I inhale a deep breath.
"I am sending my location, pick me from there. And please try to come as soon as possible...," I said to Rana and cut the call.
Hercules starts pulling me towards the VIP area and Tom chased us.
Suddenly, Hercules pushed me on the couch and look at me with anger filled gaze. I gulped and turn my gaze in the other direction due to his fear.
I thought Hercules will scream at me for my behavior but he didn't say anything and look at tom.
"I am trying to contact Ariel but she is not picking her call, " said Tom.
"Call Arjun, and ask him his location, " said Hercules to Tom and he nodded his head like an obedient dog.
I got up from the couch and started ambling towards the window, I can see the heavy rain through the window.
I put my hand on the glass and once again my eyes welled up with tears. I held my aching neck and a small hiccup escaped from my mouth.
I don't know why God is punishing me like this, I don't know how I'll face Vikram's parents.
"Car is here, let's go..." Said Hercules from the back and I instantly turned around to look at him.
I am confused after hearing his words and by looking at my expressions he understood what I want to ask him. "The driver will drop us at the hospital, " said Hercules and held my hand once again.
But I didn't move from my place and look at Hercules with a suspicious gaze " why you are helping me...?" I asked Hercules
He moved close to me and tug my hair strand behind my ear " I am just paying the debt...?" Said Hercules and his words made me more confused.
"You helped me that day at cruise and now I am helping to return your favor, " said Hercules
"Be careful, I'll try to come to you as soon as possible, " said Tom, and I looked at tom.
"Why he is not coming with us, " I asked Hercules but he didn't give me any reply and pulled me towards the boarding area.
The driver told us to sit inside the car and we started our journey. "Where Ma'am, " asked the driver and I showed him the location.
The driver made a very uncomfortable face "what happened...?" Asked Hercules.
"He is scared, that area is full of Naxalites, " I replied to Hercules.
"Is it safe to travel at this time...?" Asked Hercules to the driver. "sir, I'll try my best to drop you as safe as I can " said the driver.
Hercules looked at me then he looked at the driver. " hurry up..., " said Hercules and his words shocked me.
I stared out of the window and started thinking about my past life. I don't know how long we traveled but at one point, the driver stopped the car and look at us.
"The road is blocked but the hospital is just a few steps away from here, " said the driver, and Hercules gave him money.
I and Hercules stepped out of the car and heavy rain started falling on our bodies. The dark and deserted roads are making me feel so terrified so I instantly moved towards Hercules and held his head.
Hercules looks at my grip on his hand then he looked at me "let's go, I am feeling cold," I said to Hercules and started moving on the road which is filled with dirty water and blocked with the tree trunk.
"This area is scaring you...?" Asked Hercules, but I didn't give him any reply.
Hercules groaned and I huffed, " I am not mental Mr. Knight, You heard what the driver said about this area and Vikram was shot by Naxalite, so yes I am scared...." I replied Hercules and walked into the jungle because broken light wires were spreading on the road.
"You are looking so eager to meet him...," said Hercules. " he is in this situation because of me and he is my friend, " I replied to Hercules.
Suddenly my gaze fell on the hospital and started jumping up and down in happiness. "We are finally here, " I said to Hercules and leave his hand.
Without a second thought, I run towards the hospital and saw many police officers at the entry door of the hospital, they all are carrying guns in their hands and looking so alert.
Hercules called my name two-three times but I didn't stop for him, suddenly a bulky man comes near me and removed the cap from his face.
It's Rana, "you are Neha right?" He asked and I nodded my head. Before Rana gave me any reply Hercules held my hand so tightly and I moaned in pain. "Do you want me to drag you back to the USA, " he asked me in a ferocious tone.
" please you... You are hurting me..., " I said to Hercules.
" leave the hand of the lady before I put you inside the bar, " said Rana to Hercules in a very hard tone, when he noticed how Hercules is treating me.
"She is my f*****g wife so don't f*****g teach me the manners, " said Hercules to Rana in a very aggressive tone.
Before I Stopped Rana, he grabbed the collar of Hercules and pushed him away from me. I put my hand on my mouth due to shock and my whole body started shivering in fear.
