His Queen, Her Beast✔

16. Touch

Atharva's POV

My heart skipped a beat when she touched me.

Every time before this I have forcefully grabbed her. This was the first time that she has willingly held my hand and her touch was enough to heal all my wounds. The moment she came in contact with me, all my wrath got vanished.

Her soft fingers were acting as cotton and her heavy breaths as the ointment to my wound. One by one she plucked every glass piece and rubbed my scratches with her thumb. It was feeling like she is touching my heart and healing it's every wound. Her expressions were like not me but she is in the pain. And if this is called pain then I am ready to feel this pain forever.

There is something in her face that keeps my eyes stick on her. She has come as a light in my dark life. She has given that peace to my heart for which I was craving for my whole life.

I have met a lot of beautiful girls than her but have never come across such a pure heart. Those girls throw themselves on me and I know that they are behind my money and fame and she cares about neither my money nor my fame and this makes her different from others.

She has a soft corner for everyone even for the beast who has forcefully brought her here.

But I hate it, I hate it when another man looks at my girl. And today none other than the man whom I despise the most kissed my butterfly. How dare he?

I was already in anger by looking at that piece of shit in the meeting hall. And his continuous staring at my butterfly worked like a cherry on top. At that moment I just wanted to stop the meeting and scratch his eyes. And then he kissed my girl in front of me. This was all needed to make me lose my senses.

All my anger got busted on my angel. I even questioned her character which is the most precious ornament for any girl. I know she will hate me for this.

I should have taken the call of Prem seriously when he informed me that, that piece of shit is now back to India.

She is not even 1% of his type. Then why is he trying on her? I think he has come to know somehow that I like her that's why he is doing this purposely because it is his hobby to snatch everything I love as he gets pleasure by looking me in pain. But I can not lose my butterfly at any cost. I have to do something to keep her out of all these things.

Tomorrow I am leaving for Mumbai but I cannot leave my butterfly here when I know that bastard is here too. So without giving it a second thought I said what came to my mind
"Pack your bags and be ready at 11:00 AM tomorrow, we are leaving".

She was shocked was a small word to say.

"where?"

"To Mumbai"

"But why?"

"You know that I am going expand my business and open a branch in Mumbai too and I am having some important meetings there".

"Yes, but what would I do there?"

"What do you mean by what you will do there? You are my personal assistant and I want you wherever I go".

"But"

"No buts and ifs you are going with me and that's final. No further arguments" I said in a very dominating tone.

I was not going to listen 'no' from her at any cost. I just want her on my side every damn time.

"Let's go it is getting late. I will drop you home"

"Thank you, sir, but I will manage" she said timidly

"Just do as I am saying. Now it is not safe for you". With this, I just left the office

SHREYA'S POV

I was left with no option other than going to Mumbai with him. As this is my job to manage everything for which I am getting paid.

I went to my cabin collected my things to leave for home with him. After today's scene, I was not in a position to argue him on anything. So I accepted his offer of dropping me home.

I did not want to face him for today so I decided to sit at the back seat of the car.

"What? Am I your driver?"

I nodded my head in no

"Than what are you waiting for? Come and sit at the front"

I did as he told me and quietly sit on my seat.

I was looking outside the window, waiting for the cold winds to hit my face and have some peace. But he was not starting the car so I looked his side and found him just one inch apart. Our noses were about to touch. What is he trying to do? I pushed my head back as an instant reaction and tightly closed my eyes.

After a moment I heard a sound of tuck so I slowly opened my eyes and found him sitting in his position where he is meant to. I looked down and came to know that he was trying to tuck the seat belt.

All the blood rushed to my cheeks. I am hell sure that my cheeks are looking like a tomato.

He looked my side, smirked like he was making fun of me, and started the car.

Oh God, how foolish I am?
How could I even think that?
That was a very, very embarrassing moment for me.

After that, I just sat like a statue in my position, neither bother to make any movement nor uttered a single word, not even my address.

The only sound was that of one of my favorite song from Luka Chuppi

Bulave tujhe yaar aaj meri galiyan
Basaun tere sang main alag duniya

Na aayein kabhi dono mein zara bhi faasle
Bas ek tu ho, ek main hoon aur koyi na
Hai mera sab kuch tera tu samajh le
Tu chaahe mere hakk ki zameen rakh le
Tu saanson pe bhi naam tera likh de
Main jiyu jab jab tera dil dhadke

(The streets to my house are missing your visits.
I want to build a new world with you
I wish there be no distances between us.
I wish there be just you and me.
Everything which is mine, is equally yours, believe me.
You could take the my property if you wish.
Inscribe your name on my breathings
It makes me feel more alive every time your heart beats)

After around 20 minutes he stopped the car. I looked outside the window and we were in front of my house. My jaw dropped. How does he know about my address?

"Close your mouth otherwise fly would devour it".

I recomposed myself, pushed the car's door but it didn't open. Damn this child lock. But what is it's used. I looked at his side to unlock it. His expressions were like that he was trying to say something. But neither he said anything nor me. We were just looking into each other's eyes and there was a pin drop silence. After a minute he unlocked the door and I didn't take even one second to almost jump out of the car.
I didn't even welcome him to my home, not even for formality.

I pressed the doorbell and looked backward. His car was still there.
Mumma opened the door. I entered my home and turned to close the door.

He started his engine looking at me and I shut the door blocking our view.
