Never Leaving U ( Completed )

Chapter 56

Recap: Sana held up by akash in Vikram's beach house

*****************

Vikram slid into his car and noticed his phone vibrating on the dashboard. He grabbed it, his eyes locking on the security alert flashing from his beach house.

"Sharath," he said urgently, "Sana's there  in our beach house. I just got a security alert. She knows there's an SOS wireless setup. Drive fast. Stop five hundred metres before the house. We'll walk from there."

Rakshat floored the accelerator, and within minutes, they skidded to a halt five hundred metres from the property.

Vikram opened the dashboard, retrieved his pistol, and tucked it into the back of his waistband. Sharath, Rakshat, and Pugazh armed themselves as well.

They moved silently toward the house, stopping two hundred metres away.

"Vikram," Sharath murmured, "we should enter from different directions."

"Hmm... okay," Vikram agreed. "Everyone knows the blueprint of the house. Be careful. Sana should be in our bedroom — I'm heading that way. But remember... I want him alive at any cost. Be safe."

They nodded, and the team split up. Guards already positioned around the building were waiting for Vikram's signal.

One by one, they scaled the boundary wall, dropping inside without a sound.

Sharath's voice came through the comm. "No movement in the living room."

"Get inside, then," Vikram instructed.

"Those girls are here in the kitchen," Rakshat reported.

"Lock them in there without making any noise," Vikram ordered.

"No one in the garden," Pugazh whispered. "He has to be on the first floor."

"He's alert," Vikram said. "He must know we're here, so he's probably in the bedroom. Sneak upstairs, clear his guards, and stay at the door. Wait for my signal."

Within moments, Vikram's men silently took down Akash's guards stationed on the first floor. Rakshat, Pugazh, and Sharath positioned themselves at the bedroom door, guns ready.

Meanwhile, Vikram climbed the side pipe up to the first-floor balcony. He eased the door open — and froze.

Akash was sitting on the bed, a gun pressed firmly against Sana's head.

"Welcome, Vikram," Akash said with a twisted grin. "Welcome."

"Hey!" Vikram's voice was sharp, lethal. "Leave her."

Sana's mouth was gagged, her terrified eyes locked on Vikram.

"I never caught her to leave her in the first place," Akash taunted.

"You've made the biggest mistake of your life," Vikram warned, his tone low and dangerous. "I'm telling you... leave her."

"Actually," Akash smirked, "I could kill you right now. But I won't. I'd rather have you die every day knowing your wife is with me. Doesn't that sound funny?"

"Don't you dare even think about it," Vikram growled.

"Fine," Akash shrugged. "I don't have time to waste. I'm going on honeymoon, man. Now, come on... call your so-called friends inside."

Vikram signaled, and Sharath, Rakshat, and Pugazh entered the room.

Akash backed away, still holding Sana at gunpoint. He shoved them inside and slammed the door, locking them in. Dragging Sana with him, he made for the back exit.
