Aaron didn't leave her alone in the room. He cleaned his face, which was painted yellow with Haldi. He adjusted his clothes and tried to look normal, pretending nothing had happened. He waited for a few minutes for Elaina. She was taking a lot of time. A worried expression hovered over his face for a second. Then, he normalised, shaking his head, “Drama Queen.” He called “Mrs Black.” “Mrs Black,” Aaron became increasingly worried as he didn't receive a response from her. He shouted, “Come on, Mrs Black. Come fast. They would be angry with us.”Still, no reply. His heart skipped a beat. He again shouted, “Don't play with me. You know me. I will punish you in the bed tonight if this is a prank.” Again, no reply. He hurriedly ran toward the bathroom. As he opened the door, he found her lying on the floor. He was damn scared now. He shouted, “Elaina.”He scooped her in his arms and ran outside. Laying her on the bed, he repeatedly shook Elaina to wake her up. Her limp body was scaring
Nina was more shocked than surprised. She understood that something was wrong with her. She has never noticed such a face of Elaina. Elaina got in the bathroom carrying a small bag of her stuff. Nina was only gawking with astonishment. Elaina turned on the phone. It was an old phone with a number keypad and a small black-and-white screen. She called someone, “How long will it take? To catch him?” “Very soon. We have arranged the money or so-called fake money. You just need to inform us where we should drop the money. Then, he will be under us.” She got a quick reply from the other side. Two people are always available to answer her calls 24/7. “Now, I will tell Aaron everything about me after this trial. My deal with your team is over. I proved as I committed to you. Now, stay away from Aaron and me as well,” Elaina sighed, shivering while talking. She was expecting Nina to listen to her from outside. And there, Nina was hearing her. “Text you once I receive the destination d
Aaron and Elaina walked through the corridor. Elaina was happy today; she looked at Aaron with a shy smile. Aaron’s left hand was tangled around Elaina’s tiny waist, and their right hand was scrolling his phone. Elaina thought, “One more day, I will tell you everything. I love you so much; I can not live without you. And I don't want a thin layer of lie between us. I have waited so long to reveal my truth before you. I hope you will forgive me.” Elaina blushed and snuggled in his chest, “I know you will forgive me, and we will start a new life together.” She was blushing and smiling like a kid. Aaron glanced at her and said, “Do you wanna say something?” “Yes,” Elaina chirped, overexcited. Aaron smiled and looked at her hopefully. She said with the same excitement, “I love you.” “Love you, Mrs Black,” Aaron replied unconsciously. He thought, “Elaina, why am I feeling something wrong with you, bigger than I imagined? What are your thoughts? Exactly, reveal yourself.” Elain
Aaron dismissed Angad immediately. He ordered, “As soon as Nina woke up, inform me.” Angad nodded and left the room immediately. After a few minutes, a lady nurse collected Elaina’s blood sample per Aaron’s order. “Keep it safe until I order,” Aaron decreed. The lady nurse nodded in fear and left. Aaron closed his eyes. A beautiful smiling face appeared before him. His sweet or sour memories flashed before him. He snapped open his eyes with heavy breathing. He glanced at Elaina and sighed with unbearable pain. Gripping roughly over his emotion, he walked away in the corridor. There was a musical night party tonight. He got ready on time, but Elaina was still sleeping. He locked her in the room and left for the party. Myra asked, “Where is Elaina?” “She is sleeping, Mom,” Aaron replied with a smirk. “She can't.” “She is,” Aaron grunted. He chuckled softly, hiding his emotions. He explained, “Her health is weak, so I can't let her dance tonight. She needs rest, so she is.”
Aaron was thinking deeply. He remembered his past, every moment he had spent with Ivana—his love, his life—the only girl who had entered his entire life. FLASHBACK… Aaron was the basketball champion during his university education. He studied Business Administration. A girl cheered for him; she was different from his other cheerleaders. That was the first day when he saw Ivana. A beautiful pair of grey doe eyes. Rosy pink lips with a natural dimpled smile. A sweet, melodious voice that caught his attention. After that match day, Ivana came to meet him. “Hey, autograph, please!” She blinked her eyes like a doll. Aaron’s heart was already melted. He was never attracted to any girl, but this girl had an immense effect and something different. Aaron grabbed a pen and signed on her T-shirt - “AARON BLACK…” Aaron’s disciplined life had been turned upside down after that day. He fell in love at first sight of this girl. Slowly, the girl started approaching him. Aaron told everythi
Aaron’s rage exploded through his eyes. Pain and care were equally drowning. He swallowed hard and grabbed her right hand, making their face toward Myra and Austin. Myra’s stomach churned with the inevitable fear. She clasped Austin’s hand to get condolence. Austin wrapped his arm around Myra’s waist to console her and give her comfort. They were clear that something big was wrong between Aaron and Elaina. Aaron’s behaviour had been varied toward Elaina since morning. “Mom, Dad…” Aaron sighed with a heavy heart, exhaling a heavy long breath. Myra’s face straightened with fear. She was not ready to hear any uncomfortable news from Aaron today. Aiden and Pihoo were startled by the sudden change in Aaron’s behaviour. Aiden mumbled, “What the hell is going on?” “Brother has been changed. What the hell on earth caused a change in him?” Amelia gasped. She crossed her finger, nudging Elliot by her elbow, “Did you prank with brother and sis-in-law?” Elliot was also stunned and gawked at A
Aaron was looking here and there for Amelia and Elliot. The war was ended. The venue was filled with blood-covered dead bodies. Myra’s situation was worse than ever. She had cried a lot and almost lost her sense. First, Elaina’s truth, and second, Amelia and Elliot disappeared. Aaron’s men were looking for them madly. One of the men came and announced, “This way, boss!” Aaron whirled to see Amelia approaching them with Elliot on the small and long wooden stretcher. It was not precisely a stretcher, but it was similar. Two men were carrying Elliot. Aaron was stunned. It didn't take a second to find Elliot’s status. Aaron asked Amelia, “Who operated him? How is he now? How many bullets hit him?” Amelia was walking like a zombie, unable to walk or speak. Myra lost consciousness as her gaze landed on Elliot. Austin carried her and asked Pihoo, “Can you check on Mom?” Pihoo nodded and followed Austin. Aaron looked at Angad and yelled, “Call the best doctor’s team.” Aaron ordere
Janki and Subhash also got out of the car, seeing before them. Subhash grumbled, “Fucking joke! Am I dreaming?” Janki covered her mouth, “By the holy God, how is it possible! It is a black panther.” Elaina caressed Blackie and cried hard for so long. She got a hope that Aaron was looking for her. She was happy. She kissed Blackie and whispered, “I know he can't stay without me. He sent you to look for me.” Blackie lowered his head as if he understood her words. He doesn't want to keep Elaina under any misunderstanding. Elaina understood his movement but couldn't accept it. She wanted to wait for Aaron. She can't take a chance. “We will have a camp here. We will go further tomorrow,” Elaina ordered. Subhash sighed, looking at the sky. He pulled out his phone and called someone to inform him what was happening. Janki said, “Elaina, please. Don't make any decisions foolishly. We have to go, baby.” “I can't, he is looking for me, Mom,” Elaina wiped off her tears. Nina came
