She gritted her teeth the moment he appeared before her eyes. She held the girl's hand protectively and the girl quickly hid completely behind her finding her as a shield.

Ekaksh's eyes darkened seeing that girl again. He despises her. She, without saying anything irks him the most.

"Bhai.."

Ekaksh stopped the boy showing his palm. The boy immediately went silent and glared at Sitara. He was trying to do this without making anyone know but this girl decided to ruin his plan.

"Come here, Haya." Ekaksh commanded sternly. Anyone in their sane state of mind would have gotten scared of his voice and the way he was glaring at Sitara, but she didn't.

She challenged him through her eyes stepping towards him.

"She won't go anywhere with you." Sitara stated as a matter of fact.

His jaw clenched seeing the fierceness in her eyes. He hates her guts. He hates how she always defies him. She just doesn't understand that she belongs nowhere near him. He is supreme and she is just a mere attention seeking girl.

"Go to your room, Haya." Sitara told her without breaking the eye contact with Ekaksh.

"Don't you dare, Haya." The boy behind him warned her.

"Do as I say now."

The girl quickly ran inside the hostel and the boy ran behind her but Ekaksh stopped him.

"Stop." He ordered and the boy instantly stopped.

"But why, bhai?? She can't disrespect me like that." He interjected.

Sitara smirked folding her arms over her chest. She was totally enjoying the show. Although, she was a bit scared from inside but the hell she will show the fear on her face..

"Sit in the car." Ekaksh said.

"But, bha--"

"Right now." The boy didn't need another word from him to do as he said. Giving a last glare to Sitara, he went outside the gate.

Sitara was smiling mockingly looking at the boy as he went away. Fucking coward. She gasped as he caught her arms and dragged her towards a dark corner before pushing her to the wall.

The impact made her feel dizzy.

"What th---"

"Shhhh..." He placed a finger on her lips and muttered. His hot breath was fanning her face due to their close proximity. She was feeling disgusted being this close to him.

She tried pushing him with all her might but he didn't move even an inch. She hit his hard rock like chest and got pain in her hands in return.

He held her wrists and pinned them on the wall on the either side of her head.

"You think you are so brave, huh?" He gritted.

"I am not a coward like you." She spat in return. Only a coward would use his physical strength to overpower the other person. And in her eyes, he is a coward, period.

Ekaksh smirked seeing the rebel look in her eyes. Although he hates her, but she never fails to suprise him by her words. She is really naive.

"So, I am a coward." He repeated her words and chuckled as if he just heard a joke.

"Yes you are." Sitara replied but quickly hissed in pain feeling his grip tightening on her wrists.

His veins were popping out of his neck and jaw was clenched painfully. She was testing his patience. He wanted to hurt her. He gripped her fragile wrists so tight that the blood flow stopped in them.
