"What are you doing here?!" his yell, not any less than a roar, breaks the utter silence, "I had warned you not to wander around in any of my rooms!"

"I-I was j-just looking a--"

"You want to know what I do?!" he yells, stepping a little closer to my liking, "I am a ruthless man, woman. A gangster. Mafia."

GENTLEMAN - "a not so gentle gentleman." 

Ammar Asim Mir, the gangster.

Mahira just Mahira, the captive. 

And as a poet once said, 
"it left
 A mark. 
Every word, 
Every moment, 
Every sigh and 
Every half smile. 
It left 
A mark." - d.j
