Ashiqui

Chapter 13

"You are fucking crazy darling. I am gonna probably get killed for bringing you here." Avyan hissed in anger as he stopped his car with a harsh break. Ishani jerked forward but thanks to her seatbelt no harm was done. She looked at avyan and grinned. She doesn't know why she was happy today. It kind a felt refreshing to her.

She opened the seatbelt and turned sideways to look at avyan. "Come on avyan, you can't bring your best friend to the place you enjoy being the most." As soon as the words left her mouth she realized her mistake. Avyan snapped his head towards her. His eyes flared with anger and he gritted his teeth.

"I can but sneaking out past midnight from the house to come to an illegal racing ground is not something I want you to do. And for god sake if Bhaiya gets to know that I brought you here he is gonna beat me to near death, then hang me by a rope and peel off my skin like a goddamn orange." He visibly shuddered even by the thought of it.

"Don't be such a scared kitten, and ansh is working tonight. I called him and he said he is not coming home before tonight. And I just wanted to enjoy. Please." Avyan looked at his best friend and sighed. The puppy look on her face always breaks his strong stance. He nodded and got down and went to the other side opening the door.

Ishani smiled widely stepping out. She was dressed in a simple jeans and top paired with a jacket because of the cold night. Avyan held her hand tightly and looked at her with a serious expression. "Listen darling this place is not at all good okay? Don't ever leave me side and if I tell you to do something you will do it without any questions asked okay?" ishani bobbed her head up and down in a yes.

Avyan shook his head and turned his head to the side. There was huge barrier with "Caution" written on it. He walked towards the sign along with ishani and they pass it. And within seconds ishani witnessed a different scenario. Loud music and voices echoed in the open area. The loud screeching of cars and bikes made ishani flinch.

It was an illegal racing area. It was at the end of the city and a regular spot for avyan. Although illegal but it was supported by some highly influential families and therefore police couldn't do anything about it. Even rudra, who was basically the king didn't bother much as it was far away from the habitat.

They both walked to a huge crowd. Ishani tightly gripped avyaan's hand seeing such a crowd. Avyan looked at her and sighed. Maybe he had made a great mistake by bringing her here. They both neared to the group.

"Avyan my boy." A man from the crowd yelled coming over and hugged him tightly. Avyan smiled. The man moved back and then looked at ishani. Ishani froze looking at the man. He was as tall as avyan. His hair was pulled back in a ponytail at the back of his head. Tattoes crept on his neck. He had a lip piercing and the muscles were an evidence of his regular workouts.

He could break her with a snap. But the big grin on his face contrasted with his personalities. "And who is this gorgeous lady huh? He said giving her a smile.

"That's ishani, my best friend." Avyan said. "And ishani it's josh." Josh smiled at ishani and was about to hug her when avyan kept a hand on his chest pushing him a little. Josh looked at avyan with his hands raised his surrender. "She is married to my brother." Josh's face morphed in what the fuck face and he looked closely at ishani and gulped.

A high screeched voice came and suddenly two girls walked up to the trio. Ishani momentarily was shocked as both the girls flung themselves at avyan and both kissed him. She gagged at it and turned her face. Seeing her josh felt guilty. "Lisa, mia let the boy breath please."

Avyan looked at josh with a thank you face and then giggled looking at ishani's disgusted face. "Darling stay with josh okay don't leave his side."

"Where are you going?" ishani questioned tensed. The speed with which the cars and bikes were racing are really questionable. "I have a race in five minutes." Ishani nodded. Avyan pecked her forehead and then gave josh a nod.

"You have already laid yourself to be killed huh?" josh said with a mocking smile. Avyan glared at him and went away. "Well little girl let's go to front and watch the race." Ishani nodded and walked closely behind josh as they reached the exact front. Her heart thumped seeing the cars speeding off.

Her eyes went to the starting line. The whole road was kind of circular which made it easier to race. She looked at the contestants and saw avyan getting into a blue car. There were four bikes and three cars standing at the racing line. A girl wearing practically nothing walked to the middle of the road and raised up her hand which held a green flag.

The whole crowd cheered and ishani scooted closer to josh. The front was not barricaded and she was directly in front of a huge crowd standing behind at the back. The girl pulled her hand down and the cars and bikes sped past her. Ishani gasped. The girl had no fear of getting hit.

The whole crowd was so engaged and cheered loudly yelling and hooting. The participants made two rounds and another two was left to be made when an unfortunate thing happened. The crowd behind got mad and ishani was pushed. She lost her balance making her stumble on the road. Josh tried to hold her but was pushed away.

Ishani looked around in fear and numbness. She stood up and just then a car sped past her side. She flinched and screamed in fear. Two bikes and another car passed her again. She pressed her hands to her ears due to the loud sound. Her heart was thumping loudly.

Just then a bike sped towards her. Her eyes widen in fear. But the bike gradually slowed down and the person riding it with skill and precision skid past her and rotated around her forming a circle. It stopped at a side. And the helmet was thrown off. And when she looked at the person relief coursed through her body. It was rudra.

Rudra stalked towards her in anger. But again a loud honk was heard and ishani turned. And within a moment life flashed before her eyes as a car stopped right in front of her. She stumbled back in fear. Avyan exited the door and rushed towards her and held her tightly.

"What the fuck were you thinking ishani?" he shouted right in her face. Before she could reply. She was snatched away and she found herself looking at rudra. His eyes held anger and concern. He checked at her from top to bottom. By then the race had stopped and everybody was looking at the scene.

Ishani's body trembled as she felt rudra's grip tightening on her arm. He looked at her and gave her a disappointed look. Rudra took her hand and pulled her with him walking away when he stopped. He returned back and looked at avyan gritting his teeth. And within seconds his fist was met with avyan's face.

"I would deal with you later. You are made a fucking mistake by bringing her here." And with that rudra stormed away pulling ishani with her. Avyan held his bleeding nose when josh came to his side handing him a handkerchief. "I told you that little girl is gonna be the death of you."
