"I suppose you are too insane to disregard the warning I gave you," the grey eyed man thundered and Chandni stumbled back a step or two backwards.

"Sabiq...I... I..," she stuttered, terribly. Her honey eyes swarming with fear while his grey eyes filled with anger.

He grabbed her elbow in a harsh grip. Chandni let out a painful cry as the rings of his finger dug in her arms as his grip became more tight. Pushing her to the nearby wall he caged her in his arms. His strong hands on either side of her while his face an inch away from her nose.

Chandni whimpered, seeing the firing rage in his eyes from up and close."What are you doing in the third floor Chandni!" he shouted, hitting his palm to the wall. The poor girl let out a fearful shrill, she was not expecting Sabiq to get this much angry at her small mistake.

"I.. I was," Chandni was drowned in fear that she was unable to even whisper a few words."You what! Were you spying on me," Sabiq's anger knew no bounds.

Though he had a soft corner for this girl, Sabiq will never tolerate any kind of betrayal or snooping around behind his back.

"Sabiq, I was not spying on you," Chandni managed to say, still under the influence of his heated gaze and close proximity and most importantly his fury.

"Then what were you doing here Chandni !" This time his words came out in a whisper. A harsh, bone chilling whisper.

Chandni looked down as the tears gathered in her eyes,"I am sorry," she mumbled and the tears dropped down from her eyes.

He grabbed her chin and raised her head. Their eyes met and he let go of a small sigh seeing more tears pouring out of her honey eyes.

He wiped her tears through the pad of his thumb, Chandni sniffled as the roughness of his thumb passed through the corners of her eyes.

"I can forgive you for everything Chandni but never, I repeat never try to snoop on me," he said, his eyes turning soft so was his tone.

Chandni nodded, looking away from him..now how will she hide it from him that the main reason for her staying with him in the first place was her trying to snoop on his Mafia.

"I was coming out of the kitchen after drinking water when I heard some voices coming from here. I thought someone is in danger so I came here," she whispered, telling him the truth instead of relying on a lie.

Sabiq frowned at her words, judging the truthfulness of her words. Before he could comprehend her words in a better way another soul wrenching scream came out of the closed room.

His eyes widened when he heard the screams and everything dawned on him. He ran towards the room with worry written all over his face.

Chandni was startled to see him getting so worried and somewhat scared as he opened the lock of the door with his fidget fingers.

She followed him, her own heart beat rising in fear and worry as she saw him getting so shaky.

Another heart piercing scream came from inside and at the same time the door snapped open and Sabiq barged inside without wasting a single second.

The door closed behind him right on Chandni's face. Chandni blinked, not understanding what to do next. Should she follow him or stay where she was?

For a long minute she debated with herself but finally giving up to her curiosity she opened the door again and stepped in.

What she saw left her nothing but flabbergasted.

Standing under the cold shower Shivoham tried to quench the heating desires burning inside him.

However the face running through his mind did not let this thirst quench. It only intensified as her dewy eyes innocent face walked through his memories.

His mind was playing the same scene. His heart echoing with it, recalling the fear and nervousness in those light brown eyes.

He could feel her scent. That magical sour scent of lime living in every corner of his senses.

Even the water running through his perfectly carved body could not wipe her fragrance.

She was beautiful.

Fuck.

She was something more than beautiful.

Now when will he get to see that pretty face again?

When will he get to hold her again ?

He was dying to kiss her again, taste those luscious lips again. She was truly a goddess who had made him her worshipper on the very first sight.

Shivoham shook his head, shaking off the water droplets from his black curls and wrapping a white towel around his torso, he walked out of the bathroom.

His mind still swarmed with her thoughts. It's been 46 hours 36 minutes and 23 seconds since he last saw her. Shivoham stopped on his track realizing that he was counting the hours on his fingertips. He was surprised by his own self.

His yearn to see her face again was surprising him too.

He just wanted to have some good days and sexy nights with her then why was he only thinking about her on every other second.

Why did he denied a good sex only for a thought of a that unknown girl.

Was she becoming something more in his life ? Was she becoming someone more than just a thing to earn and throw ?

Shivoham denied the conclusions a part of his mind. Once he will get and get bore of her he will not give a damn about her.

As soon as he entered his room he once again halted on his track when he saw her standing there in the middle of his dark bed room.

"You here ?" he whispered not believing his eyes.

She was standing there with her hands clasped together on her back and her head down out of shyness.

Here in his room, right in front of him.

His sweet rose.

She was looking no lesser than an angel in that satin white short dress.

Her brown wavy hair was tied in an elegant ponytail and for a moment a thought of fucking her by yanking her ponytail from behind came in his mind.

Two pretty half moon shaped silver earrings were dangling on her ears. Her lips had a slight color of pink glossy shine.

It looked inviting and delicious as the rose bud like lips curved in a beautiful smile and she raised her eyelids to meet his eyes.

Shivoham was stilled on his place as she walked to him. Her steps were slow, hesitating too. He saw through the bashfulness that she was going through.

The lady of the moon, his babygirl, the woman of his dreams shyly and slowly encircled her arms around his neck. Her face merely touching his broad hard chest, her preky round boobs smashing against his body.

Her small nose twitched a little at the high smell of body soap coming from him but still she met his hazel eyes with a shy smile dancing on her pouty lips.

Shivoham did not know what to say or do as she bit her lips between her teeth and whispered,"How am I looking daddy?"

Shivoham gulped.

Not believing that she was here, in his home, in his room, wrapped around his arms and looking him in the eyes.

"Ethereal," he said in daze. His eyes dwelling in that of hers.

She was looking more than ethereal. Her beauty was extraordinary. Making a man like him swoon over her each and every part.

"Won't you touch me daddy I thought you wished you to own me ?" she asked him, a small pout finding her juicy lips. Her head tilted to one side in a bit of confusion and eagerness as she asked her daddy.

Everything downed on Shivoham.

The girl he was finding in every corner of this city was now here, in his arms.

She was ready to be devoured by him.

He roughly wrapped his arms around her thin waist, colliding her to his naked chest. "Where were you ? I was finding you everywhere," he asked her eagerly, with a frown coming on his temple.

The girl smiled a little and Shivoham narrowed his eyes at the little minx. Was she enjoying his condition when he was finding her everywhere? He tightened his hold on her, making her let out a hiss of pain.

"Answer me," he growled.

She shuttered and answered in a small breathy chuckle,"I was always near you. You just failed to find him."

She said, infuriating Shivoham more.

She was saying he failed to find her. Stupid girl don't even know that Shivoham Shekhawat have never failed and it will continue till eternity.

He grabbed her throat, choking her long slender neck and pushed her to the bed with him on top of her."Answer me again and this time a fucking truth. Where were you all this time," the growled once again.

She giggled, placing a hand on his shoulder,"I was here," she pointed to his mind," and here," she placed a finger on his heart.

Shivoham frowned at her words and before he could speak another word she vanished into the thin air, turning into nothing.

She disappeared as if she was never here in the first place.

Alas, she was not here.

She was only in his imagination.

Shivoham groaned, giving up two three dirty curses as he closed his eyes again and found her beautiful face.

She was ruling in his mind now. She was right. She is here residing inside him.

In his dreams and his imagination.

He could not wait more to get her in his life too.

"Soon. Very soon," Shivoham smirked, opening his hazel eyes.

Turning on the radio he tuned in to another song by Kishore Kumar. His lips murmured the lyrics as he wiped off the water of his black hair.

"main saans letaa hoon, teri khushboo aatee hai...

ek mahkaa-mahkaa saa paighaam laatee hai...

mere dil kee dhadkan bhi, tere geet gaatee hai...

pal pal dil ke paas tum rehti ho...

(When I breathe, I smell your fragrance....

It brings along a mildly fragrant message...

Even my heartbeat sings your songs...

You are near my heart every single moment..)

......

Chandni's eyes were locked to the ashen face of the girl who was sleeping in Sabiq's arms.

She was the same girl from the club.

The Afghan girl. Mohsina.

It was her screams which were roaming around the mansion a few minutes ago. She was now silent in Sabiq's arms after she was injected with a fainting vaccine. Different thoughts were jumbled in her mind as she saw Sabiq caressing her hair while staring at her lovingly.

"Who is she to him ?" She asked the girl standing on her right.

It was the same African girl whom she saw getting sold that night in the club. "I don't know but he has been softest to her since he brought us here," she replied and Chandni looked at her. She felt sad seeing the scars on her makeupless face.

"I am sorry for whatever you have gone through," she said to her while cradling the baby girl to her chest. Chandni had ran to get as soon as she heard her cries but again giving up to her curiosity she came back in this room which was packed with some unknown girls who looked like an old preys of sex trafficking.

Chandni had thought that Sabiq was keeping them here captive if only she had not seen him carrying mohsina delicately in his arms and raining kisses on her face.

"Why are you saying sorry? It's not like it was your fault," the girl beside her said and Chandni could only give her a smile filled with pain.

She once again looked at Sabiq and then to the other girls in this room. " Is he... I mean the capo. Is he taking advantage of you all," though her heart was saying it was untrue still to be sure she asked the girl in a small whisper.

"I don't know," the girl said and Chandni again snapped her gaze to her,"what do you mean ?" She asked.

Hadija, the same African girl sighed and told her," he has not touched us till now. His servants give us food on time. All the girls here including me had not had any sex in last one and a half days. Now I don't know if all these changes are for good or bad," she said with a blank face.

Chandni looked down, it was also hard for her to understand what was going around her. Why these girls were kept here, why Mohsina was screaming and why Sabiq was taking care of her.

"What's her name ?" Hadija asked, taking Chandni out of her thoughts. Chandni met hadija's eyes she was looking lovingly at the baby girl sleeping in her arms.

She roamed her eyes around the room, most of the girls had their eyes fixed on her and the babygirl. "I haven't named her till now," Chandni said with a slight shrug.

"Is she yours ?" the girl on her left asked her, she looked like a Nepali from her features.

Chandni frowned, she did not understand why everyone thought of this baby girl as her daughter.

"I mean, is she yours and the capo?" Another girl from behind them said in a hushed voice. Chandni was cringing hearing their assumptions. Why does everyone think of this baby girl as Chandni and Sabiq's daughter?

"She is not mine or his daughter," she said,"and I don't know her name. I found her only two days ago," she whispered the last parts not wanting Sabiq to hear their conversation.

"Oh, okay," the girls around her whispered and Chandni only nodded in response.

She again turned her gaze towards Sabiq but this time she found him standing right in front of her. The girls scrambled back in fear and got to their respected beds which were provided to them.

"If your chit chat is over then should we proceed to our bedroom Mehzabeen,"Sabiq's voice was cold and stern. His gaze snapped to the other girls then it met her again. Chandni felt her mouth getting dry in nervousness, she barely responded to him with a nod.

Sabiq wrapped his arm around her petite shoulder making the poor girl shiver by the touch of his skin to hers.

Sabiq gave one last to the girl who was screaming a few minutes ago but now was in deep sleep before walking out of the room with Chandni bound to his arms.

When they reached Sabiq's room, Sabiq got on the bed as if nothing had happened just a few minutes ago.

"What ! Why are you standing there," he asked when Chandni did not budged from the doorway.

" Who is she to you, Sabiq?" she asked him without beating around the bush. Though she was still feeling nervous and even scared from inside but now she had to know the answer.

What was he planning ? Why was he keeping those girls in the same room ? Why was he caring for Mohsina?

Sabiq's jaws clenched and the old anger again surfaced in his eyes. He walked to her and once again caged her between him and the closed door. His eyes dominating, even dangerous as he growled" What did I tell you ? Don't try to.."

" I know what you said and I am not snooping on you. I am asking you directly, Sabiq , so tell me who she is to you?" This time she didn't give up her nervousness and asked looking directly into his eyes.

"Come and sleep. It's getting late," he snarled, his nose flaring as the veins or his forehead popping out. Sabiq hates nothing more than people peering at his personal life.

"She is someone very dear to you. Didn't she ?" Chandni spoke, seeing the fury getting more and more intense in his eyes. People only get this furious when someone raises a question about their loved ones.

"Who is she to you Sabiq.." she smirked trying to take out true words from him.

Sabiq was losing his mind and patience as he saw a smirk curling up on Mehzabeen's lips. The ever so innocent and curious Chandni was smirking like a wicked witch.

"Is she someone very special to you Sabiq. Maybe your old lover," Sabiq knew she was trying to fuel him up and take out words from him but when she crossed out all limits and made a stupid assumption he could not control himself.

"She is your lover," Chandni whispered and the next moment she flinched when Sabiq roared loudly.

"She is my sister god damnit!"

Chandni blinked as he confessed the truth.
