Mission Manik Malhotra - A MaNan FF [Completed]

Chapter 3 - Taken For A Ride?

Navya was waiting for me at the entrance to Manik's house, where the party was held. I got down the car and waved at her. I was dressed in a short, grey backless dress and had tied my hair up in a sleek ponytail. I kept the accessories classy, small studs in my ears, a silver delicate watch and pearl bracelets. ''Woah you're looking stunning!! Dressed to kill, huh?'' She asked, hugging me warmly. Almost true.

I laughed and replied ''You're looking no less .. Cabir won't be able to take his eyes off you!!''. Navya blushed, and I really did mean it. She looked beautiful in a short white, flowy dress with her lovely tresses left open.

''Come, let's go in'' she said, taking my hand and pulling me in. Around 25 people, mostly teenagers were happily dancing and enjoying themselves in his vast living room. She took me to a group right in the middle of the party, and my eyes immediately met his eyes. He stood out , because of his height and exceptional good-looks. Manik stared back at me. Correction - glared at me and I gulped.

''Hey guys, meet my new friend Nandini Murthy!!! She recently joined SPACE..'' Navya announced. Alya and Dhruv cordially shook hands with me, introducing themselves while Cabir offered me a wave. But my focus was only on the pair of eyes burning down on me with intensity. I tried to maintain my composure and offered my hand to him. Manik huffed and walked away, ignoring my held out hand. Rude.

''Don't mind him. He's reserved, takes time to open up to new people'' Dhruv said, following my gaze. I smiled and nodded. Soon, all of them resumed dancing and gossiping. I excused myself for a bit and scoured the party, trying to observe and take in everything around me. As I passed the ground floor balcony, strong hands pulled me outside.

''Why do you always have to pull me like this?'' I hissed at Manik.

''What are you doing here?'' He asked, ignoring my question, still holding me tight by my waist and glowering down at me.

''As you must have heard earlier, Navya is my friend and she invited me'' I responded, gathering courage to look back into his eyes unfazed.

The way I glared back at him irked him and his hold on my waist tightened even more, making me wince. Such a Monster!.

''I don't care who you're friends with. Just remember NO ONE comes to know of our physical intimacy'' He warned in a deep and threatening voice.

I gave him a disgusted expression and replied ''You may be shameless, but I'm not. I wouldn't let anyone know about it, anyways'' . His features softened and he loosened his grip, finally allowing me to breath.

''Thank heavens you are one smart girl, Nandini Murthy.'' He said, his voice now husky and seductive. Oh, so despite his anger, he had managed to catch my name that time. But I admit, my name had never sounded so good.

He ran his fingertips along the ridge of my spine, causing me to shudder and arch my back. He pulled me close and nuzzled his nose into my hair, his hot breath fanning the side of my face. I bit my lower lip, so that I wouldn't moan in satisfaction. As much as I was enjoying it, I abruptly pushed him off.
He had annoyed me to no end by handling me like an object, playing with me or giving me pain whenever he wanted. ''You just disgust me. Let me tell you, I'm not your property. You can't just shout at me and play with me whenever you want to'' I shouted at him while he just chuckled. I stamped my feet and turned around, the sound of him laughing irritating me further.

I cannot do this, even for the sake my case. I know I will be making my job only harder but I cannot let him use me like this for satisfying his frustations. And I was totally hating the way he threw the composed girl in me off track and played havoc with my senses like no one had ever done in my entire existence.
