"Yes. This is a chance I can't miss. For at least a day,he is giving me the power." I say. But my statement sounds awkward. Does it infer that I have to depend on him giving me power?
"I know that you will understand my point. Go and enjoy your date." Lai smiles.
"Are you insane? Go on a romantic date with Dhruv Saxena? No way! This is a game,Lai. And we're each other's opponents here." I say, looking ahead the window. The sky looks clear.
"How can you say that? What if he has real emotions for you? If he learns that you are just playing a game with him,it will break his heart."
I smirk.
"You are too naive,Lai. There's no such thing as real. Not for this man. And I haven't entered the arena by my own choice. I was dragged into this shit. So I better play with my rules."
I hear Lai si

"I am well aware of my life. Thank you very much." I flash a sassy smile and stomp ahead, cursing the dick in my head.Such an obnoxious, fucking dick!!!!"Meera, wait." He follows me but I don't care!"Did you have your lunch?" His question throws me overboard. Where does this come from?"Yes absolutely. My stomach is full. Thank you!" I snort,not caring about the location I am walking into. I just want to stay away from this guy."I didn't. I was considering settling at some place. The constant sauntering is adding to my appetite."Good. You deserve it. Stay hungry.But then also, the Mother Teresa version 2.0 within me won't allow that. So I turn back anyway. Both at the thought and Dhruv.I stare at him for a few seconds, taking heavy breaths to control my an

The sun sets on the horizon, bidding it's goodbye to the evening sky. The sky changes its colours. From blue to a mix of orange and yellow. The lake acts as a mirror, reflecting the beauty of the sky.I inhale the evening breeze and close my eyes to feel the serenity of the environment."Can I get you something?" I hear a voice beside me."Yes. Your head on a silver platter." I open my eyes. Fuck this dick for destroying my moment of serenity. I was feeling so poetic a few minutes ago.He doesn't answer back and moves away from the seat. Good. Finally, I can be at peace.Straight half-an-hour. For half-an-hour,I sat with this dick on my side, sometimes staring at the lake and sometimes staring at me. I can't understand why he is accompanying me! Like, I already made my intentions clear to him. And he did look angry in the beginning. But then

"So,how was it?" Lai hops on the bed with a cushion, waiting for the great Meera's story time."Seriously? Let me freshen up first." I walk into the bathroom."I can't. Tell me. What did you two do?"I turn and gasp finding Lai leaning on the bathroom door frame."No! First, let me shower." I close the door on her face."Hey! But what did you both talk about?" I hear Lai's voice coming through the door.This girl is seriously mad!"We talked about birds and flowers. Happy? Now stop talking and let me shower in peace!"I turn on the shower and let the cold water sprinkle over me."Fine. But you need to tell me everything!" Lai keeps shouting from behind the door."Sorry, can't hear you." I say and turn the shower to full speed.

"So, what party is this exactly?" I look through the books stacked on the office shelf. Just curiosity."It is a success party for Mr. Saxena's company." I hear Elen say."Okay. But why should I go there? It's his company's success party. What job do I have there?" I turn back to Eleanor."There can be several reasons. Maybe,he wants to show you off as his arm candy in front of other personalities there." She replies.The statement kind of hurts,but I can't expect better than this. Dhruv Saxena certainly wants a girl by his side. And he already has one. Who will intentionally destroy his day. I give myself a mischievous smirk."Remember one thing,Meera. Your behaviour might lower your salary at the end. Because Mr. Saxena will be paying you. Being under the contract doesn't change the fact that he is our client and you are the service provider. If we find anything g

"Dhruv Saxena" I say. Why???"Hello sweetheart." He looks at me and smiles.He walks towards me and keeps staring at me. Yeah, I know I look hot. Now get over it!"You...look heavenly." He compliments with his usual smile and I roll my eyes."And you look...hmm... decent." I raise my eyebrows.He smiles and looks down,as if blushing.Surprisingly, I am not very angry at him right now. Everytime,his face makes me dream about punching him. But today I actually can make an exception.Is it because of his behaviour yesterday? Did he buy you with the ice cream too? The thought crosses my mind.No! Not at all! Meera! Don't get soft with this freak!But do watch out. Don't disappoint him so far that he cuts it from your salary. You have worked hard so far

"Yeah. It is." I reply with a fake smile. I have to say that I am getting quite used to this smile. And maybe good too.He sips his drink and looks at me with lust evident in his eyes."Is this seat taken?" He gestures at the seat beside me. Oh, no. I don't want him to sit here."Yes, it is." I turn my attention at the source of the unfamiliar voice.A man, shorter in height compared to that grey eyed creep stands in front of us, smiling. He is certainly good looking and kind looks cute with his broad smile."Okay." The creeps gets his cue to leave, so he does.I let out a light chuckle at the sight, drawing the other man's attention."Hello my lady. Sorry for not introducing myself. But I thought that you needed some rescuing from Samuel, so jumped right into the track." He smiles.This tim

Dhruv's POVBoris drives us to Eleanor's office,to drop Meera off there."Meera?" I call her."Yeah?" She speaks in a light tone. This can be considered as the first success of my plan. She is not having a bad temper anymore after I took her to Ariaza."Thank you for being good at the party. And I apologise for my behavior earlier." I say in a sincere way. But the truth is far bitter."Hmm. Whatever. Good night." She says and steps out of the car."Good night, Meera." I greet her back.I check her back while she walks into the office. She is one beautiful masterpiece. Something even she cannot see."Go." I order Boris.After an hour or so, I walk through the entrance gate of my house.All the workers rush in t

I step out of the car and walk without sparing a glance at Dhruv. Of course, I don't want him to see the smile I have on my face. Duh!I walk to Eleanor's office. I told Dhruv to drop me here as I need to get changed and then go home. Basically, I can't go to Lai's home wearing this fancy sexy black dress. Then,it will be the last day I stay at her house.I enter the building and hear Dhruv's car driving away.Today was amazing! I really loved the location and food of the hotel he took me to. But , that doesn't mean I am into him or interested in him in any way. Nope.I wanted to give him the Illusion that I am. That will make the game much easier.He definitely thinks that I am stupid enough to not see the motive behind his behaviour. It's not very hard to figure out.I enraged his ego. So he wants to take revenge

Being His Epilogue
One month later, I finally got custody for Sonia. Thanks to Dhruv and his high-paid, fancy private investigators and lawyers on the run, it was a piece of cake. Udipi was immediately charged and found guilty in the court. I never expected this day would come. But my heart is finally at peace. I got what I craved for a long time. Freedom from Udipi Adarsh. My house was free from investigation and so I shifted back there. Though I kept making stupid reasons to stay in Dhruv's mansion. Hey, don't judge me right away! It was not because it was comfortable. The house he gifted was no less than heaven. But it was because...you get it right?So, I had to forcefully drag myself back to my house with Laila and Sonia. Aunty and Uncle did not have a single clue that their daughter had done a heroic job of getting me out of the grasps of jail and actually visiting a police station. I don't even want them to know because Aunty will certainly pass out from
Being His Chapter 101
We rush past the people towards the counter of the Airport. The moment the car stopped, Dhruv's men told him that they had spotted her and stopped her in time. Sonia is also with them. The news itself made my adrenaline rush kick in and without a second thought and a second glance,I ran to the entrance. Of course it was a mistake, since the security caught me. But Dhruv got us through within a few seconds. He didn't even have to say anything. The moment the guards saw him, they understood who he was. I believe power gives that to you.A few seconds later, I spot a woman standing with a child, talking to a few men wearing black suits. My eyes grow wide in recognition and my heart feels like it will break through my ribs and land into my hand. Udipi notices me and her face loses all its colors. But all my attention is taken over Sonia who is still crying. Her one cheek looks very red. Did she slap her? That bitch! I lunged at her, in between th
Being His Chapter 100
In a moment, the police barges in the house and in front of my eyes, Sonia is dragged by Udipi Adarsh. I try to explain to them why I have kept my sister with me,but due to lack of evidence, they don't believe me. Plus, now they will take me in custody because according to Udipi's claim, I forced Sonia to stay with me. And because of my Sugar baby job, I am trying to push Sonia into prostitution.It takes only a few hours to find myself standing in the police, begging the officers to believe me. But they rather push my words away and consider me as the accused. What has this day turned to? Tears stream down my eyes as I stand helpless, cuffs in my hand, ready to get under the bars. Is this how my life is going to be now? And what about Sonia? I don't know what that disgusting bitch would do to my sister. Sell her to a brothel? Get her married? All these thoughts keep haunting me. And I would be able to do nothing. If I had some time, I would

"Um...I—" I don't get any words to say. I believe Dhruv will say something about it, but he stares at me too. Waiting for my answer. Marriage? Why is this topic even coming up?"Would you?" Dhruv asks and I look at him. Is this some kind of proposal? What should I do? It reminds me of Eleanor's story. The way her rich husband left her. Wait! What the fuck! Marriage shouldn't be a topic here at all! I am too young, well according to me I am. This is not the time to get married. Also, I am not going to marry Dhruv! Especially after hearing what Eleanor said. We have just got to know each other."I don't know." I look down at my nails, and there is silence for a moment."Means, you are not sure that my brother is the one for you?" Harsh asks in a serious tone. Where the fuck is this coming from?"Brothers, I think this is too much. Why ask such a question righ
Being His Chapter 98
Meera's POVI put on the pearl white dress Eleanor brought for me without any hesitation and sit for the two hours long torture. Why can't makeup be relaxing like a spa? After the torture is over, I look at the mirror to find my enhanced face with all the makeup and shit. "Eleanor?""Hmm?" She responds behind me, looking through something on her phone."Dhruv came to my house yesterday but I did not see Blondie—I mean the guy who is incharge of watching over us.""Yes, I know. I wanted to discuss about it with you and Mr. Saxena today but since there is a change of plan, I have to shift the meeting to some other day.""Okay. Also, are you sure that Dhruv told you to dress me up in a certain type of clothing?""Yes. He called me again after ending the call to give me specific instructions on how you shoul
Being His Chapter 97
Dhruv's POVI stare at the lady, who Ajay claims to be Meera's mother. It is hard to believe that the claims are true because she has nothing identical with Meera. And there is a certain malicious look in her face that only experienced eyes can catch. Which I certainly have. "Oh, I see. Hello Mrs. Adarsh."She nods her head with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Saxena. It is very nice to finally meet you.""Same here. I am fortunate that I could meet you. Meera does not speak much about her family. So I believed you did not live with her.""Ah, yes,yes. I actually come from Kolkata. I recently came here. Meera did not say anything?""No.""Oh…" she looks down. "Why would she, of course." She mumbles,but just in the way it is audible to both Ajay and my ears. Does not fit right with me."S
Being His Chapter 96
Dhruv's POV"Boris, make sure my suit is ready for today. I will be home by four in the evening." I tell him and he bows his head. I have told Sia to get my schedule ready today. I had plans to take Meera out,but thanks to my family, it is all ruined now. Yet, I am glad that I still get to spend my time with her. I had told Eleanor about the change in plans and she agreed to do all the arrangements. Though I don't have a clue on what arrangements she was talking about because Meera needs none. A beauty like her can bewitch people with anything. I loved her choice of wearing a saree when I took her to meet my family. One of the things I love about her. She knows what she needs to do. I don't understand why she keeps telling me that she is not good enough to earn a luxury like the one I have gifted her. A woman like her can make anything stand worth millions. She has the brains for it. I need to show her how smart she is. And how brave.
Being His Chapter 95
I gasp at her words. "What! But why?""It is because even if you show your love, not telling it means not considering it at all. This will give the next person the impression that you care for them but not anything more than that.""Wait a minute, love? I don't—" I hesitate. I don't love him, right? Love is a deep word to even start with."Leave it. Let's get some food. I bought some vegetables from the market. Can you make something out of them?""Hmm. Bring the packet here." She brings the packet before I start putting the vegetables on the kitchen island and see what I can make out of them. Yet my head revolves around what Lai said a few minutes ago. Will I lose him if I don't tell him my feelings?***********The next day, Eleanor calls me to her office very early and I give Lai the responsibility to take care of Sonia.
