First Conversation
AUTHOR'S POV:
AT 2AM:
He is sitting in his arm chair, motionless, radiating the silent authority of a king. He isn't just a ruler, he is the shadow itself. The darkness that consumed him entirely and now people are afraid of his darkness.
He stood up, and went near his window and looked outside. Looking out at the sleeping city he gave a wicked smile. The smile that hold the gesture of pure calculated malice.
Then he said, "they don't deserve anything, good or pure and I'll make sure they remembers never to cross me. The countdown starts now. Let's burn in hell together."
SIA'S POV:
Today is the success party of the company I work. For the third year running, we had secured the best company award defeating the AV Groups again. I'm wearing a sleek, silver sleeveless turtleneck gown. I kept my makeup minimal, with a silver drop earing with my Titan watch.
Oh, my bad let me introduce myself, I'm Sia Chaubey, the head of the Fashion Team. Not a single pixel or pattern goes to print without my final word. I think you guys still didn't got which company i work for. It's the famous bachelor's company. The most frustrating enigma I've ever met the Akansh Rathore. I've been working at his company for like 3 years now.
"Hi Sia, you look damn beautiful." a voice broke through my thoughts i turned and saw him my favorite Rudra.
"Hey Rudra, and thank you and why are you alone where is Mr. Sarela." i asked
He gave a laugh "come on he's the boss remember."
"Yeah, i know. I'm the one who he doesn't even like me yet recruited me anyway. I still don't know why"
"It doesn't matter. What matters is that you are the best. We were on the top before you came, but since you joined, we reached the height. He likes you just doesn't know how to say it." He said when i noticed him.
My gazed fixed on him. He was strikingly tall, perhaps around 6'1", with thick, dark, styled hair that framed a sharp jawline. I hate how much i like his eyes, they are the piercing green eyes holds purity, and mostly masked by cold ambitious shield. Occasionally, a flicker of emotion would break through, but never stayed for long.
He is wearing a perfectly toiled black suit, and its just isn't the black suit it feels like black was his colour. Get a hold of yourself, Sia, you cant lose your tract remember he is bitter than a bitter gourd.
"Ah can see that. As always glaring. Go before he eats you" Rudra gave a smile with a hug and went to him.
I don't know his issue with me though. He never talked to me nicely, In fact he never really talked to me his all questions come through Rudra and my all questions answer ends with his antique "hmm". I think he hates me, why i don't know and i guess I'll never know. But who cares as long as it doesn't harm my work I'm ok with it.
Suddenly the room get quite as the sound glass clatters when he starts to speaks, "Welcome every one to our third consecutive success party. I would like to thanks every employee out here, specially to the Fashion Team, a round of applause to them. I shall not bore you all enjoy the party."
This was the longest speech he gave till now. Damn so Mr. Sarela can speak.
Then Mihir, Akansh Bestfriend stepped up "all the beautiful ladies out there please come to the stage for a beautiful dance."
I had zero planning to go, but Mihir walked towards me, "i think i clearly mentioned all the beautiful ladies."
"oh no, I'm not. "i said
"Why not?" He asked.
"Nothing really just don't want to"
"Come on one dance for me please." I laughed at his cute face then i gave up and nodded.
We were moving on the beat. When suddenly he appeared and said something to Mihir and he said, "something came up i have to go. But don't worry Akansh will help you with this dance."
Saying that he took my hand and placed it on Akansh and left. I stood there in disbelieve to what do next but his moves shocked me. he pulled me by my waist and slowly whispered, "I'm not going to eat you."
His hand rested on my waist and I thought he or me anyone of us will be uncomfortable, but to my surprise we both felt relaxed. Slowly our body started to sync automatically and held me such a gentle care as if, if he hold me any hard i may disappear. We didn't have any conversation after what he said.
From the side of my eyes I can see people mumbling and damn Rudra was giving a smile, a knowing smile as if he knew this was going to happen.
When he again said, "Don't focus on them focus on the dance."
"Well how can I, when people are mumbling and Rudra look at him giving a knowing smile. i hate his smile sometimes."
"Well since when did you care." I looked at him in shock how does he know that.
"How do you know that?" he just looked into my eyes. something reflected in his eyes. before i could decipher that he masked it. And my dear luck before i can insist the music stopped and he left and i kept looking at his retreating figure and Rudra came running.
"Damn girl, that was electric. You two looked like a couple and you two look so good together.,"
"Ok, Drop it Rudra." Now I wanna get the hell out of this place.
