Devil In Fairytale

Chapter 18

Aahan's pov
The blood drenched the wool carpet as it drips from one knee of Grayson turning it into scarlet, Great. "What a wonderful site for sore eyes. Isn't it James?" I said while reloading my revolver.

"I completely agree with you, Sir." James said, showing a now satisfied grin. "G-Give me a-a chance. I-I promise I will never e-ever mess with you-u" He begs.
"A chance?? Are you forgetting who I am ? I'm Aahan Ahmed Khan and To your disappointment, I never give second chances. Your first is your last." I smirked.

"Bitte verzeih mir!! (Please forgive me)" William pleases while holding his one knee in pain. "Tedious." *Bang* And I shot him between his brows James stood as it is however he's familiar with the scenes now.

"Ruined one of my favourite carpets." I huffed in annoyance. "James, I hope you know how to get these stain out." I asked, glancing his way while still holding my gun. "Or Nevermind, purchase a new and more appealing one."

*Knock knock* a sudden knock derived our attention towards the door. "Who is it?" James inquired. "It's Asher." James looked in my direction for permission to allow him inside which i granted.

"As soon as I heard you're back, I came rushing My lord. I have bought these for you." He said bowing his head And showed the prepossessing weapons. "Impressive Asher, Du hast gute Arbeit geleistet.(You have done a great job)" I said, as I handed My revolver to James to take a better look at the newly arrived beauties of mine.

"What it is you desire? I'll grant you anything you want." And he just shook his head in denial. "My lord, We want to see you healthy and jubilant always that's the only thing all of us want." Mannered, Well done.

"I appreciate your feelings,Asher however, You have a family, three kids and a wife to look after and for them, It is necessary to become selfish because their needs can not be fulfilled while you flattering me with your words, will it?" I said. "So, for this present of yours. I'll transfer sufficient amount in your account in return. It doesn't have anything to do with your pay. It's just a favour."

"I'm beyond grateful, My lord." He said, as he left from there. "He's a trustworthy person." James said. "For now.." I said while unlocking my phone. "What Sir?" He asked. "Niemand kann In die Zukunft sehen. (No one can see into the future.)" I said looking at him in the eye.

"Why there are no texts from Conrad and Josh? What's happening?" I said, focusing on my phone again. Meanwhile, James rearranging all those weapons however, my revolver slipped from his hand and fell with a thud sound.

"I-I am truly sorry sir. It j-just slipped away-y." He said, petrified. "Oh! My dear Merikh, how can you drop her, James?"
I said squatting down to pick up the pistol aka Merikh. Before i could say anything my phone started ringing and the id shows Conrad's no.

"Keep your eyes wide open, James. Or there won't be next time." And he apologized before dashing out of the room. "Anything useful??" I said on a call.

"Nop-" "then I'm hanging up." And I did as I said. After a whole minute he called again. "Conrad, I'm literally not in a mood-" "bhabhs not wearing the ring you gave her." He said in a single breath.

"What?" I asked. "Yeah. Me and Josh saw that with our own charming eyes." Conrad said. "And she was with that Ranveer Singh I told you about, She was with him whole day as she took a day off." He finished.

All this did nothing but made me pissed. I rubbed my brows to ward off the headache. As much as I despise to ask, I have to. "Were they alone or was there someone else too?" And i waited for his answer. "Her Girl bestfriend did stick around but Mostly they were alone." He said.

"And Aahan his gaze. It doesn't seem like a gaze normal people have you know, he was gazing at her with utter Admiration." And that was the last straw. I slammed my hand on the desk so hard the items on it rattled. "What the fuck you both were doing??enjoying the show with popcorn." I blurted.

"Aahan-" "Halt den Mund!!(Shut your mouth)" I said, pushing my hairs back in rage. "Aahan, calm down. Listen to us, He did stayed with her most of the time but she didn't talked to him at all. Aisha looked as if she was avoiding him and damn she acted like his presence was invisible." Josh said perplexed.

"What do you meant by that? He did stayed with her." "yeah he did but She didn't looked in his direction at all, barely saying anything to him. That's it."
And his words brought reassurance inside me.

"Also about the ring, that I don't know where it is but it's not on her finger." He said. "Alright, I will be back as soon as I'm done with my work here. You both continue to look after her." And I hung up.

It's not been more than four days and you already taken off your engagement ring, strawberry. What a courageous woman I have. Just wait until I return because this time I will bring you here, where you truly belongs. With me, Always. I'll make sure you can never get away from me, Schatzi.
