They were fated apart, but she forced destiny to let her meet him again, but this time they were just strangers...
" You won't need a driver's license to ride me, " Simran chuckled drawing circles over his husband's firm bicep...

"Mr.Ajay, the thing is you have been delaying on consignment for weeks now when they were delivered on time before," A man stated his concern, "Is there something wrong?"
My ears were on alert, and my body quickly pressed to the slightly opened door of the study where my cruel Mama Ji (Maternal Uncle) was talking with some of his clients.
"The problem is that brat," He snorted in disgust and rubbed his temples, "But don't worry, I have already a backup and know how to tackle her out of my way".
Is he talking about me? Yeah, it's always about me.
The smile I had before on my lips because of my Zane has disappeared somewhere, the tingles that I was feeling because of the love I made with him for the second time had faded somewhere and been replaced with fear, anxiety and horror.
Even though my first time with him was quite interesting like he wasn't keen at all, he refused to even kiss me as it incited him to lose control. This step was too early for him even if it was for me but I couldn't just restrain him anymore. I needed him wholly whether it was emotionally or physically. Our age difference has always bugged him, it coerced him to take me as a fragile girl who doesn't understand the difference between attraction and love but I know that I love him wholeheartedly.

The truth clicked in, and my hands fly over my mouth only to realize that the man in front of my eyes has been treating me like shi.t only because he wanted to snatch my property and business.
"Don't worry, Mr. Merchant. I have it all handled, she won't be a problem anymore".
I retreated from the door as soon as I heard their footsteps approaching and concealed myself in the corner of a wall with my body pressed together in a way that I was not moving an inch and breathed in relief when they just left.
Phew!
I quickly took off to my mother's room and froze when I witnessed it empty, the whole room seemed like no one lived there before.
I stepped back and my fingers tapped on my phone screen to call Zander but suddenly realization hits in that he had already boarded the plane for London which means I can't contact him right now.
Where is Maa?
My eyes glided to the pitch-black room and my breath stuck in my throat when I noticed a shadow in the corner of the closet's room. The room felt even cold and the walls looked like if itmade of charcoal all of a sudden everything felt so dark and lost.
"MA?"
I asked lowly as I began walking toward the switchboard to turn on the light, "Is it you?"
