Fitoor

sab moh maya hai

Some mature content...things are about to get very dark in this story, if it is not your vibe then I highly recommend not reading this chapter. Maya is a very deranged woman.

(Maya's POV)

I ran my fingers over my arm, remembering his touch. His wild, aggressive touch on my body. His musky, spiced perfume scent that left me in a daze. It had been a week since we came back from Dubai, but the sight of his body on mines, over me, sometimes beneath me, never left my mind. For the first time in my life I knew what it was like to lust over a man unabashedly. He was my drug and I needed more.

But more than that, I needed him for selfish reasons. He was going to father my child. Only I know how badly I wanted a child after losing my child twice, once to Saanjh's wickedness and then to Arjun's mother's evilness. I longed to have someone to call my own. I had no family and no one to live for. It crossed my mind to adopt a child but with Arjun demolishing my life, I was in no mental state to do so. Then I met Sahir...

Sahir was everything I was realistically looking for. He was a man who was strong in his demeanor, he had every quality I wanted my child to have. Strength, determination and aggressiveness. We would create the perfect child. I didn't want a relationship with him at all. I knew better than that, but nothing could stop me from carrying his child. I honestly do not care if he chooses to be a part of my child's life or if he hates me for lying to him about being on birth control. All I know is that I will love my child so much that he or she will never feel his absence. And if Sahir chooses to remain distant from his offspring, even better. Sahir was a smart man, I know I wouldn't have to worry about him dragging this relationship for more than it was worth. We were physically compatible and understood each other very well, but there was absolutely no need for a relationship. We both want very different things from life and this was just a fleeting fling meant to satisfy our needs. I surely wanted a baby from him, but I didn't want him involved in my life beyond that.

Hindering me from my thought process, I looked up as my personal assistant knocked at my door before entering the room.

"Ma'am" She stuttered as I looked up from my laptop at her. Her eyes were downcast as I looked on at her in confusion.

"Ma'am, actually...Arjun sir..."

"What about him?!"

"Arjun sir filed a case against us for wrongful acquisition. The bank has frozen our account."

I stood up immediately as I swiped every file of my desk in a single motion. "He-what?!"

I saw her flinch at my action and rightfully so. "LEAVE!" I yelled.

I grabbed the pen holder sitting on my desk and flung it across the room. There was no appropriate response to this but I couldn't help feeling overwhelmed at the mere thought of Arjun's audacity. Just because I stayed quiet in the last few days does not mean I would continue to do so. I was sick and tired of his audacity. He used every mechanism possible to demean me just because I stayed quiet at every step. The number of things I had let him get away with just because I was hopelessly in love with him baffled me. I was such a lovesick idiot when it came to him and I needed to get a grip on my own self. But now things were getting out of control. My hatred for him kept rising.

I had to show him his aukaat. He was rising too high and too ahead of himself. He had forgotten where he came from, the reality of his low-class life and I was about to show it to him all again.

My phone beeped, interrupting me out of my thoughts.
