All Chapters of Possession: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Everyone was frantically moving here and there like total lunatics. Their heart was thumping in their chest. Only one thing was in their mind, 'there should be no mistake.' The people sitting in the grey and blueish glass cabins of the office were filled with utter terror. They all knew their single mistake would humiliate to a level they never knew ever existed. So all of them were trying their best to control the hysteric nerves and survive the most havocal 5 minutes of their life as they were informed this morning there CEO, Irtaza Haider Syed will be on his rounds. It was to tell the news here and there, their eyes came out of the sockets. His name alone erupted the fire of fear in them because all of them knew who their boss was and what power he actually had.The rounds started after five minutes and all of the workers were trying hard to compose themselves. The hearts were beating wildly. All of them were well aware of how much a calculative and short-tempered man the CEO was an

The sun beamed through the half-curtained windows spreading its rays directly on her angelic face. Her eyes opened with soft sunlight caressing her eyelids. She stretched her arms groggily and rubbed her eyes whilst yawning. It was a bright sunny day. A small smile crept on her lips as she felt the warmth of the sun. She sat up and as soon as she placed her body weight on her butt she winced with pain. And with that, all the memories of last night came running into her mind screwing up her fresh morning. She shrugged off all the negative thoughts as she didn't want to start her fresh morning by thinking negatively. She was about to stand up when her door knocked and she immediately got up before unlocking the door and saw her grandmother standing there. She gave a motherly smile to Zahra and she let her in the room. She sat on the bed and Zahra next to her. Zahra slightly winced with pain as soon as she sat on the bed. Her grandmother gave a kiss on her forehead causing her to smile.

One look. One hard glare stopped her heartbeat. The disappointment and anger she witnessed in his eyes made her hands clammy within minutes. All the life left her legs and she visibly gulped. Her eyes widened with surprise and fear as she tightly held both her hand together. "Bha...ii a..ap yah..an kes..ay" Haseeb stuttered grabbing his attention back. (Brother what are you doing here?) "Haseeb," he moved his head towards him, "a week ago, I gave some instructions to you boys which was obligatory for all of you to follow. Remember what were they?" He asked. 'Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!' 'None of you will be stepping out of this haveli without informing or taking permission from me. If it is too urgent then take guards along with you. The Osmanis are keeping tabs on us though I won't let them harm any of my family members, you could expect anything from your enemy. They love to strike at your weakest point. If something urgent comes make me a call before leaving the haveli. All of you make

The door shuts. And she was left alone. She helplessly looked towards the closed door. Her heart drummed in her ears. Her face paled and her hands clammy with nervousness and fear. "Zahra" he called out her name. She turned around and saw him seated on his chair, pensively looking at twirling the pencil in his fingers. His thick black eyelashes shadowed his well-defined cheekbones as he leaned against the back of his chair. His face was stoic, void of any humane emotion, and depicted as if he was in deep thought. Moments passed but he continued to look at the twirling pencil. And then he slowly and steadily looked upwards. His eyeballs follow the slow movement of his eyelids. It was then their eyes matched. Gleaming grey against dull brown! His strikingly sharp gaze pinned her to the spot. His eyes were intense as always and his grey iris was as usual sparkling like diamonds in the middle of his eyes. His eyes can engage someone just by a single glance. They were like a universal

She pulled off of his shoulder when her sobs died and her mind cleared. Her eyes trailed towards the wet spot of her tears on his shirt "I am sorry," she said looking down. She didn't know what hit her that she began to cry on his shoulder. He stared at her small form. Her eyes were swollen due to the immense crying. Her big eyelashes were drenched in her wet tears. The tip of her nose was bright red. Her cheeks tinted pink and her lips slightly quivering with fear as she took them between her teeth to stop their tremble. His eyes stopped at her red, luscious lips and he moved his thumb towards her chin to free her lips from her white, shiny teeth, which she hesitantly did. The pad of his thumb slowly began to graze the flesh of her pink lips, feeling the softness underneath his thumb. His eyes intensely staring her. Her body was now a bundle of nerves. His intense stare was making her hot all over and without any doubt, she knew her cheeks would have been turned red. His pupils di
