My eyes process the ceiling's colour. Dark cream! I blink to push away the sleepiness from my eyes and mind. I feel the weight over my stomach, thighs and legs. I glance around lifting my head. Sas is hugging me tightly, her legs are over my thighs. Saavi's arm is wrapped around my stomach. I untangle myself, pushing myself out of the mattress.
I halt when my eyes lock on his handsome face. He's wearing a dark blue suit. First, I smile. Then, I gulp as I haven't told them about it yet. I push myself up. He holds out his hand to stop me. He beckons at my phone with his finger. He's looking as he is going to the photoshoot in a room with sunlight coming through the window. His face is glowing under the morning sunlight.
I extend my hand carefully and don't want to wake them up. I grab my phone bending ahead over Sas's face. I exhale in relief as no one stirs. I look up at him w
I head out toward the garden. I dart my eyes around. Three are standing together. I walk over to the group. " What is with this backpack? " Saavi frowns. " If we couldn't sit in the same car. Our personal group. make sure no one sees your messages. " Sas says. Sim nods immediately. They two are saying as they have planned something big, " What have you planned? '' Saavi stares at them. " We're running, " Sim says under her breath. My body stiffens, " We're going to shop, " She says out loud. " And ice cream. We should have fun before our marriage, " Sas giggles. Sim joins her. Saavi and I exchanged a confused look, " Why? " Saavi asks, her face is a perfect picture of a shock. I'm still trying to digest her
I saunter toward that man who made Saavi cry. At my sight, his haughty, boastful expressions change into horror. He rushes at his car stumblingly. He is looking behind me as he has seen a ghost. His face turns white. Awkwardly, he gets in his car and ignites it. He Is still looking at me. He hit his car into the street lamp' pillar in terror. My mouth gaps. I turn. They have astounded expressions on their faces too. Yuvaan is attending another call. This man is not fed up with attending it. Achraj and Aasif are also busy on their phones. They're acting as nothing happened. " What have you done? " I stare at them. " What are you talking about? " Achraj gets on his feet and walks toward his car. " I can hope. You don't wanna continue your game. " Aasif gestures at the grilled toast. Sa
There is dead silence and fear in the air. Achraj's family belongs to the Mafia world. Our families work for them. That's the reason. Sas and Saavi decided it. I keep staring at the vast land out of the dull red door of it. " Who gave you this? " Saavi asks, raking her finger on the expensive chain. I swallow hard and bite my lower lip. I'm still not ready to tell her. Shouldn't we concentrate on our plan of running away from our families? " I know, she's hiding something from us. " Sim says, thinning her lips. Believe me. I wanna tell you all but after seeing his menacing look. After knowing from them about our families. I'm not sure about him. Is he only a businessman? His posture at the dining table last night says another dark story.
BOOK TWO - COLD-HEARTED KING The Land Of Devils Series All Rights Are Reserved Copyright © 2021 by Seerat Kaur CHAPTER ONE His gaze is intense on me, his demeanour so fluid and calming but his green eyes betray him. He's making me feel awe. I didn't think about this side of him before jumping to the conclusion. I'm feeling weak and helpless under his power and control radiating personality. My throat is dry.
I feel goosebumps on my skin. He trails down his hand on my arm while putting me down on the mattress. There is no one in the house. They are either shopping or preparing for upcoming weddings. My mind is still stuck there. "What will you do to him?" I couldn't help asking him again though I know the answer myself. His jaw tightens. He stares down at me. The magic I felt before. It puffs. My heart speeds up a little, "Rest," His voice is so calm and threatening it sends quakes down my spine. He turns toward the door. I turn my attention to the floor. I'm perplexed with so many feelings, thoughts. His powerful nature can't rule me. I don't wanna fear him, my husband. It's not permanent. I remind myself. I don't allow him to have this sort of power over me or by anyone. But I like it from him. I've my si
Her face was flushed crimson red when I asked her to read it. I would have never done this. She's my wife. I've every f****** right. She's a married woman. She should know about s**. I walk out of her room. I need to settle my beast first. I'm seething. My heart is pumping blood fiercely with the need to shove all the bullets in the old pelvis' head. How the f*** He dared to try it twice. Vikas and one of my men, Antonio join me in the hallway toward his office's room. I've asked Achraj to be there with his brother Hardwin. My muscles flex as I fist my hands. Kala opens the door for me. I really appreciate this man. "Son! Achraj informed me that you've called an urgent meeting." Gagandeep says as he gets on his feet. His smile never abandons his face. I grind my teeth. I wanna protect h
His eyes were glimpsing with possessive glint. He left me last night with wandering thoughts. I'm concerned about how this will happen? We could elope yesterday. He picked to come back here. He's the bravest man, he's the king of a huge menacing group of people. I palm my forehead. He has hired a personal beautician for me. I'm not looking at the same girl I saw myself in my daily life. I swallow hard as I gather my thoughts together. The ends of my hair are curled, makeup is giving me a look of a celebrity. The pistachio and golden lehenga is heavy with heavy embroidery work on them, with net dupatta and yellow and white roses' jewellery. "Wow! So beautiful! " Saavi says and hugs me from behind. She is looking so glad. This smile comes on her lips only when she gets the most wanted thing. I giggle, "Than
My arms and cheeks are covered with Haldi and milk' mixer' paste. Saavi and Sim are smiling ear to ear. But I'm not sure about me. I don't know what I'll do when I'll part from him after divorce. He has promised me a house. I can do a teacher's job. I can come back home. My family will take me in. But what next! They will think about my remarriage. I don't want an arranged marriage. I glance at my father. He smiles at me. I smile back. They don't know I'm married. Yuvaan could tell them. He did not. My family is happy but I could not push away unsettling feelings when I found fear in my father's eyes. When I wake up every morning, I'm used to them being around me, this will change!
