Adiraj's side
Adiraj POV
I lay in bed, my mind racing with thoughts of the mysterious girl. I didn't know much about her, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that she was different.
"Find out everything you can about her," I instructed my personal secretary, my voice low and menacing.
They nodded, their faces expressionless. "Yes, sir."
I dismissed them, my thoughts returning to Aastha. Who was she? What was her story?
As I drifted off to sleep, my mind was filled with dark visions. "In the shadows, I'll be watching her. Waiting for her. And when the time is right, I'll strike."
I imagined her walking down a dark alley, unaware of the danger lurking in the shadows. I pictured myself stepping out of the darkness, my eyes locked on hers.
She would try to run, but I would be too quick. I would catch her, pull her close, and whisper in her ear.
"You're mine now."
My phone rang, shrill in the silence. I answered, my voice curt. "Yes?"
"Sir, we have a situation," my guard said, his voice tight with urgency. "Someone has been trying to leak your personal information."
I sat up, my heart racing with anger. "Take me to them."
I threw off the covers and got out of bed, my bare feet making no sound on the cold marble floor. I followed my guard to the basement, the air growing colder with each step.
As we reached the basement, I saw a figure tied to a chair, a gag in their mouth. My guard stepped aside, revealing the traitor.
"You fools," I spat, my eyes blazing with fury. "You think you can betray me and get away with it?"
The traitor trembled, their eyes wide with fear. I smiled, my lips curling up in a cold, mirthless smile.
"I'll show you what happens to those who cross me."
I walked over to the traitor, my footsteps echoing off the cold concrete walls. I reached out and ripped the gag from their mouth, revealing a look of terror.
"Please," they begged, their voice shaking. "I didn't mean to. I was just trying to make some extra money."
I laughed, the sound cold and menacing. "You think a few extra rupees are worth betraying me?"
I reached out and grabbed the traitor's hand, twisting it until they cried out in pain.
"You're going to pay for your betrayal," I hissed, my eyes blazing with fury.
I pulled out a small knife and began to carve into the traitor's skin, watching as they screamed and begged for mercy. I cut deep, the blood flowing freely as I worked.
As I tortured the traitor, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. This was what I was meant to do. This was my purpose.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the traitor's screams faded away, replaced by a dull, lifeless silence. I stood up, my chest heaving with exertion, my eyes still blazing with fury.
"It's done," I said, my voice cold and detached.
My guard nodded, his face expressionless. "Yes, sir."
I turned and walked away, leaving the traitor's lifeless body behind.
I walked back to my room, my mind consumed by thoughts of that mysterious girl. I couldn't wait to find out more about her, to learn everything there was to know.
