Sweet Surrender

●Advik●

To say I was right would be an understatement. They totally ripped apart Amara's apartment. I was surprised to receive Vanya's call in the first place. Me and Arjun immediately rushed there only to find out that it was the work of some sick pervert, who stole nothing but her lingerie.

My blood was boiling at a hundred degrees, and it was written across the mirror that she chose me above him, as if she knew him.

We are at our mansion, and suddenly she stopped in her tracks, I turned back and saw her staring at me, which was a strange emotion in her eyes and blank face.

"What are you staring at Amara?" I asked irritably. My quota for today's nonsense has been covered, I can't handle any more.

"Nothing." She muttered and started walking again. Kashish came running out when she heard us.

"Kashish, Amara is going to live with you for some time. Then, I will take her to my penthouse." I said to her.

"Hold on a minute, why will you take her to your penthouse? She is not your girlfriend or anything." Kashish said.

"You are right. She is not." I said and whispered, "but will be soon."

"Excuse me, brother, I heard that." She said and began to advance towards me.

"I am going. I have to get to work." I said and turned around and came out while Kashish kept shouting in the background.

What am I thinking? What am I doing? Did I finally lose it the item called brain? Ughhhhhh. These people are driving me crazy, first this attack on us ,mole in the gang, then open challenge to Amara, her apartment, I am damn sure that it is not some stalker, it's work of Alfredo only, but the question is, why would he take her undergarments?

"Nikolai, at my office in 10 minutes." I said to him on call.

"I want the security camera footage of Amara's house building on my table in 10 minutes." I said to my PA as I entered my office.

Nikolai came barging in with Arjun, and my PA handed me the video.

"See, there a man and a woman entering the building, they have their faces covered, and that man has tattoo like one of those of Alfredo's gang's." Arjun said, pointing. He sure is the sharpest of us all.

"Their faces are unrecognizable for a reason, Arjun." Nikolai said.

"That's what I was pointing, Nikolai." He countered back.

"Okay, stop you guys." I stopped them before it turns into a silly banter,, because they love to banter.

They both started staring at me. "I am thinking, and your gazes are not helping." I said.

Just then, my phone lit up with a message,

"Mr. Sorrentino, if you are so daring, come meet your lovely enemy tonight. You must come alone though, or maybe today might be the last day for many people. The same bar from last time, 10 pm sharp. I don't like tardiness.

From, the one you are looking for."

I showed it to Arjun, who immediately called his hacker friend, more like someone who works for him and asked to find its location and whom the number belongs.

"The threats and attacks have drastically increased in last week, Advik." Nikolai commented.

"Yes, we need a solid and functioning plan to take them down once and for all." I said, holding my head. These sudden headaches are the worst.

"Are you alright, bro?" Arjun asked, placing a hand on my shoulder.

"I will be once we take down that fucker Alfredo and his boss, whoever he is." I said getting up.

"Don't tell me you are thinking of meeting him, seriously?" Nikolai said.

"Do I have choice? It's not that I am scared but I want to know who really is behind all this, I have had enough already." I said and stormed out of the cabin.

I went home and searched for Amara and Kashish, they were playing out in the lawn, it was late afternoon.

"Hi Bhai." Kashish shouted.

"Hi princess." I said.

"You home at this time?" she asked with a raised eyebrow and Amara came and stood behind her.

"Are you settled yet? Are you good here?" I asked Amara.

"Till now, it's pleasant, don't know about future." She replied.

I nodded, then remembered why I came home in first place.

'Guys, I won't be home tonight, so don't wait up for me at dinner." I said.

"Oh, I bet it's another business trip?" Kashish asked.

"Unfortunately yes. And, you sleep early, I don't want to listen to your complains that eyes are aching or head is spinning due to lack of sleep." I threatened Kashish.

"You will come back na?" She asked in a low voice.

"Obviously, where will I go without my little sister." I said and hugged her. She nodded and went inside.

Amara was staring at me with eagle eyes as to trying to figure out something.

"What? You want one too?" I asked teasingly.

"If you are talking about hug, no and if you are talking about that business trips of yours, yes I do want some info." She said crossing her arms around her chest.

A tinge of breeze hit her face and her hair started blowing in front of her, some stick to her cheek while others covered her mesmerizing eyes. I went close to her, and gently removed the hair strands.

"You need to relax, Amara. I am here an I will never let anything happen to you now. Trust me." I said looking into her eyes. This wasn't the first time, but I was again got lost in them like it was the first time.

"What about my job?" She asked, still staring me.

"Take a break for now, and let me clear the mess before you go back." I said, and she nodded.

"In any other circumstance, I would have broken your nose, but this time, I am obliged to obey." She said, sighing and backed a little from me.

"Never oblige, you are a tigress, and you are not to obey anyone. I am asking you to take a break, not ordering, but order helps, then your wish." I said.

"Hmmm." She said and started walking into the mansion, I too followed her inside.

"One more thing." She instantly turned back and collided with me.

"Yes?" I asked, balancing her on her feet.

"That reaction of Kashish? Do I need to take care of her or do I like anything I need to know?" She asked.

"That story is for another time, but if it helps, do see to her. She has emotional breakdowns now and then." I replied, and she again nodded in understanding.

This girl sometimes amazes me to core and sometimes just irritates me to death. I don't know which one is tugging me towards her more.

Heyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Nice to see you all again. Hope you all are enjoying reading it as much as I am enjoying writing it. It matters to me so much that people are finding it intriguing. My first story is , and I am grateful to all the readers.

I do think that it's time some romance should be sprinkled on this story. Too much action and adventure has been going on.
