AFFLICTION

27 ~ [That Devilish Grin]

AZEZAL POV

I turned back when I heard Aaron talking to someone "Come, come" and I saw Aaron with Leera... Leera? What's she doing here?
I saw him pulling her hand like forcing her to enter the room

I hanged up the call and my eyes met her. She stilled on her feet, absolutely stunned to see me just like me. She was the most unexpected someone to be here in my engagement party. Then my eyes went back to the little Aaron who was struggling to make Leera walk who's now standing still on her place, not able to move just like a statue.

"Look who's here!" Aaron uttered excitedly when he saw me. I remember he saw a picture of her that night and he told me how much he already liked her

I took steps towards them and I could see Leera started shivering a little. Her face astonished seeing me here, she also didn't expect to see me here I guess.

Can't deny the fact how much she's looking ravishing in that nevi blue v necked dress. Her dark brown hair open in soft curls. Her eyes glittering staring at me amazed and fearful. She is looking breathtaking beautiful

"Aaron?" I uttered raising my eyebrow not exactly knowing what was happening here. Now I'm standing close to them just a step away. She's still stunned and now I could see she stopped breathing as I came close. Her eyes traveled down not able to look at me more
"Bestfriend! You invited Leera here to surprise me, right?" Aaron said avidly with a wide smile. But before I could say anything my sister came in...

"Aaron! So here you are.. I was searching for you downstairs. I told you not to roam around!" My sister Alina said coming here with a frown face

"I'm sorry.... Mom" Aaron said in a low tone still holding Leera's hand
"He..He was showing me the way to restroom" Leera finally spoke up

"Oohh.. Sorry maybe he kept you roaming around with him instead of showing you the way to restroom. Come I'll lead the way" Alina said to her with a smile

"She can just use my washroom here as she's already here" I affirmed straightly, observing everything.

"Ooh yeahh... Leera, there's a washroom here. You can use it. I'm downstairs. If you need anything you can call me" She said to Leera and took Aaron's hand in her

"Y..Yeahh thankyouu" Leera said smiling back to her, more like forcing a smile as per the situation. So, my sister and she know eachother and are pretty good with eachother... I guess they probably met here in the party though

"By the way! This is my brother Azezal, today's main individual... I mean the husband-to-be" Alina muttered grinning and Leera nodded forcing another smile. Then Alina faced me and introduced Leera to me as if I don't know her. Yeah of course she doesn't have any idea about my past with Leera...
"Azezal, This is Leera, friend of Louis" She said to me. I didn't even expect her to be related to Louis in any way

"Miss Leera" I called her name to grab her attention forwarding my hand for a shake with a grin on my face. Acting we both are meeting eachother for the first time

"P...Pleasure to meet you" She muttered and hesitated before shaking my hand but as Alina way watching us she held my hand for a handshake

"Excuse me... Aaron come with me. It's been long you didn't eat anything" Saying that Alina excused herself, dragged Aaron out of the room with her. Now it's just me and Leera here. Still her hand in mine as I clenched it tight. She tried to get her hand off mine but I didn't let her hand go. She's still looking down at our hands and trying to free her hand from mine. A smirk played on my lips as I watched her

Then slowly she titled her head up and faced me "L..Leave my hand" She uttered staring at me. I didn't say anything instead gripped her hand tighter.

"Ouchh" She huffed due to the pain of my hard clench on her hand. Still I didn't leave her hand instead I hauled her with me and bought her just at the washroom door while she kept trying to resist and get rid of me
