I zipped up my pants, my eyes fixed on her naked form.She was crying, her legs cramped against her chest as if trying to protect herself from me.Her body shook with sobs, her skin pale and vulnerable.
"Get dressed," I said, my voice low and husky as...

Kaidan lounged in his plush, black leather office chair, eyes fixed on the ceiling as thoughts of Swarnalekha and their tangled past swirled in his mind like a vortex. The soft hum of the air conditioner and the faint scent of polished wood filled the room.
Suddenly, Ranveer burst in, his face beet red with rage, his eyes blazing like hot coals. The door slammed shut behind him, making his assistant jump in the outer office.
"What the hell bastard? You broke off the engagement with Ameha? Are you out of your mind?" He thundered, his voice echoing off the glass walls.
Kaidan raised an eyebrow, his expression calm and collected, a stark contrast to Ranveer's fury.
"Ameha is Ramsay's daughter," he reminded, his voice laced with desperation, his hands gesturing wildly. "Our partnership is decades old, incredibly valuable. You're putting everything at risk, Kaid.Our reputation, our empire... everything will go up in flames."
Ranveer's anger intensified, his face purpling.
"I've got news. You're still fooling around with that girl you brought for sex. Have you lost all sense? Do you know the consequences?"
His expression remained unruffled, his eyes never leaving Ranveer's face whose voice rose, his words spilling out in a frantic rush.
"Ramsay will ruin us. Our business will be destroyed. We'll lose everything we've built."
Kaidan broke his silence with three explosive words:
"I have a child."
Ranveer's eyes widened in shock, his mouth hanging open.
"What child? Is Ameha pregnant?" he stammered.
"Swarnalekha."
Ranveer's face turned purple, his eyes bulging."This is catastrophic, Kaidan. That girl will blackmail you. Think of the possibilities: scandal, extortion, ruin. Our business will be destroyed, our reputation in tatters."
Kaidan remained silent, his jaw clenched, his eyes flashing with warning.
"We can't let her destroy us... We need to take care of this problem."Then, he uttered the unthinkable.
"Kill that baby."
Kaidan's eyes blazed, his face twisted in rage.
In an instant, he slammed Ranveer against the wall, his hands closing around his throat like a vice.
"Shut up," he growled, his voice deadly, his eyes burning with fury.
Ranveer's eyes bulged, his face reddening."You're insane," he choked.
"No one touches my child," he snarled, his voice low and menacing.The room fell silent, the only sound Ranveer's ragged breathing. He coughed, his lungs burning as he struggled to breathe. Kaidan's grip had been vicious, crushing. He stumbled back, grasping the armrest to steady himself, his eyes fixed on his transformed face.
