"Now as to my part of the bargain. You must arrange a date for me as well."

"No" he firmly said.

Furious I turned him towards me.

"What do you mean by no?"

"No, I won't."

"Why not?"

Silence.

I introduced you to Zoya. Now it's your turn to keep your end of the bargain.

More silence.

"Are you even listening to me?"

Some more silence.

Bewildered, I almost shouted, "Zain! I am talking to you, damn it."

In a quick movement, he turned towards me, his eyes red. He held me by my waist, pushed me against the walls, closed the space between us and smashed his lips against mine.

"Sshhhhh....." he hushed and pinned us against the wall leaving no space between us. I held onto his biceps with my hand in reflex. He shook his head lightly signalling me not to scream. But did not remove his palm, awaiting confirmation I guessed. I nodded a little locking eyes with him fearfully. I witnessed a glimmer in his eyes and he removed his palm from my mouth slowly. I mustered up a little strength and asked nervously. "Kon hai aap aur yahan kya kar rhe hain," His eyes softened, looking deep into my eyes as if he could see through them as if he owned them. A strong wind surfaced, pulling away the fabric and revealing his face. It was him. My heartbeats raced wildly. He flickered his gaze to my lips for a few seconds, licked his lower lip a little with an unreadable emotion and peered back deeply into my eyes, delving into my soul. He replied in the raw, masculine and resonating voice I had heard months before. "Daksh naam hai hamara. Vivaah karne aaye hai aapse," *** I could not believe my eyes that he was standing right in front of me. The day I walked away from him, with a swarm of butterflies in the depths of my guts and belly, I never considered the possibility of crossing our paths again. I never thought we would get another chance in this life. Was it a wise decision of me to run away back then like that? The moments we shared back then flashed back into my memory. I started wondering if this was a coincidence or if he purposely located me. *** This is the love story of Daksh Pratap Rathore and Radhika Maan Singh. Storyline occurs in early years of 21st century(2001). A love saga bridging the gap between a city-born man and a village-raised girl. They are soulmates longing for love and solace from each other in different parameters. Let us dive into their journey of togetherness, and internal conflicts and see if and how they find solace with each other. First 2 chapters can be descriptive but I'm sure you'll like the story further.

"How did you ever become a successful billionaire, I'll never understand." Alex Bianchi smirked. "It's mostly my good looks and sex appeal. And of course the ability to make people fall in love with me." ~~ Hacked Hearts ~~ Let me welcome you to a story with a twist. The secrets we hide could open a door that might not be closed. This is the story of an arrogant Billionaire and a girl whose mouth has no filter. When a billion dollar company is hacked, Alex Bianchi wants to arrest the person behind it.

Say Hi to Alex and Myra, your soon to be best friends. ------ "Do you have a boyfriend?" My eyes widened at the personal question, "Didn't your file have this information?" He shrugged, "I skipped that page." "Why?" I breathed out as he took another step closer, standing so close that I could see his eyelashes under the dim light. "I need you to answer this." he replied, looking into my eyes. I felt my breath hitch, as I felt his eyes leave mine and travel below, stopping at my lips. Unconsciously I licked my lips, his lips darkened and his face came closer, or was it mine that went closer to his? I didn't care. One more breath and I would feel his lips on mine. --- I hope you like this story! Don't forget to Vomment - Vote & Comment.
