Zayn’s P.O.V.My phone pinged with a message as I sat inside the car, returning from a meeting.I took out the phone.Kabir: Have a great time at work, my love, and don’t miss me.I shook my head in disbelief upon reading his message. He sent it with a wink emoji.Me: Fuck off.I replied to him before keeping my phone back inside my coat pocket. I ignored it as I heard the pinging sound again. I was sure he must have sent a laughing emoji. Idiot!I sighed, looking outside the car’s window.“It’s quite late; I didn’t think I’d be able to see her now,” I murmured under my breath as soon as my driver pulled the car out in front of the hotel.I had decided to send Kabir, Marco, and a few of my men back because in Russia some important dealings of consignment were required. They would leave in a few hours directly from Pune and would be back on the day of the meeting for the after-party. I had planned to stay in Pune, but then I came back here.For the meeting, still two days left, so I co
Kabir’s P.O.V.“So, I finally dropped you off on time, even when you got a little naughty.” She remarked, halting her bike as we arrived in front of my hotel.“As if you were a saint there,” I replied, getting down from her bike and standing in front of her.She laughed, getting off the bike as well, and we stood there in front of my hotel.I grinned, though a twinge of sadness crept in with the reality sinking in.I thought, ‘So, it’s the end?’I had just experienced the best thirty minutes of my life. It was incredible.But now was it time to bid farewell?I couldn’t help but gaze at her, pondering if this was our final meeting.“So... when are we gonna meet again?” She asked, and before I could reply, she cut me off. “There’s always a price to pay when I meet you. You know, losses.” She stated with her arms crossed, and I couldn’t ignore the subtle lift of her chest. And to top it off, her tank top revealed my bite mark as it shifted slightly.“Like what you see?” she teased, snapp
Myra’s P.O.V.I closed my eyes, my hand resting on my heart, as I leaned against the door for support. I had just rushed in from the garden, my heart racing and a certain pair of blue eyes kept flashing in my mind. It was Zayn sir. I blushed as the moment I just spent with him replayed in my mind. He looked so adorable when I mentioned the camera thing. Hehe. But he was capturing my picture? Out of everything, he was capturing my picture? Why? Does he— No, no, Myra. Stop it. Don’t think anything nonsensical. He’s your boss. God, what is happening to me? Then my eyes fell on the clock; it was 8 AM. My morning shift started at 9. I had to make breakfast as well. I rushed into the kitchen to prepare pancakes because Roshini loved them. She was still sleeping; well, she had already informed me she had taken a leave today. When I was heading to the garden, I asked where she was coming from, and she mentioned going for a ride, something she usually does. However, this was the f
Zayn’s P.O.V.The rest of the day went by pretty fast. It was noon, and after the morning incident, I didn’t meet Myra as I had some important meetings with clients regarding a new hotel we were thinking of opening in India. After purchasing the anklet for her, I returned to my room, quickly got ready, and headed straight into a meeting.Jackson had bought that store legally. Now, it belonged to me. My frustration peaked when the store employee failed to present the anklet because of its high cost, oblivious to my identity. She made a grave mistake.I immediately fired her. Yes. No one could mess with me. No one!I was the Russian King! I could purchase the entire world and even destroy it.“Send a painkiller to my room. I’m having a terrible headache,” I informed the manager, who accompanied me as I walked through the corridor towards my room.He nodded in response.I continued walking, gently pressing my forehead, feeling a surge of pain. This likely resulted from continuous work wi
Myra’s P.O.V.My heartbeat quickened as soon as he placed his lips on my palm, holding it in his hand. I felt a rush of emotions, like a whole zoo in my stomach. His touch was so soothing and beautiful.I wanted more, but I couldn’t find the words to ask for it. He looked up at me with a smile, his hand still resting on my stomach. He gently placed my hand back in his hair and said, “Continue your magical work,” making me chuckle at his cuteness. I resisted the urge to pull his cheeks, blushed, and obeyed his request.Within a few seconds, he fell asleep on my lap as I applied balm to his forehead. A small smile spread across my face as I watched him sleep like a baby. Even in his sleep, he looked so adorable.I ran my fingers through his silky hair, feeling content. I couldn’t explain why being close to him made me so happy. He had an intimidating presence, but being near him brought me joy. It was a strange feeling, but one I couldn’t deny.I always used to get scared of the high-pi
Roshini’s P.O.V."Come inside, Myra. Stop staring at me with the door open." I tried to act all cool, but inside, my whole body was doing somersaults!She gazed at me for a few moments before stepping inside and locking the door. I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath to brace myself for her inevitable questions."What the hell are you wearing? And what were you doing?" She interrogated, approaching me and scrutinizing me from head to toe, her face still flushed with embarrassment."Babe, I was feeling a bit itchy down there," I lied, to save my ass. If I confessed to what I had actually been doing, she would have definitely kicked me out of the room, in just my panties and bra. I knew my bestie well."Ohhh... It must be some infection. I have some V wash. Go use it, you'll feel better," she suggested, her voice filled with concern, but my eyes widened in horror as Kabir burst into laughter over the phone.Shit.Myra and I exchanged wide-eyed glances. I hastily switched off my phone,
Zayn’s P.O.V."Zayn, are you ready?" Kabir asked on the call as I stood wearing my black tuxedo with a black shirt.After returning to the room from the garden, I took a hot shower to try to divert my mind from everything.Now it was around 9:30 a.m., and I was all set to leave. Today was very important to me. In the meeting, I would finally confront that rascal Oberoi.We had everything planned; now all we had to do was wait and see how he would approach me. My blood was already boiling at the thought of him. Today, I would finally meet him, and I already had an urge to kill him right there. But no, I decided to wait. I would kill him, but slowly and steadily, making him beg."Yes," I replied. Kabir and Marco were already waiting for me in Pune, with the meeting scheduled for around 11."Don't be late," Kabir teased, and I knew where he was going with that."It's an important day, Kabir. Very important," I replied before ending the call.Exhaling deeply, I reminded myself to stay foc
Zayn’s P.O.V.As I headed to the airport after confronting my enemy, I was consumed by rage. The person who had shattered my life was living freely, and I couldn’t allow him to find peace, not anymore.My mind churned with the intensity of my fury towards him. He had been within arm’s reach, and I had yearned to end him, to make him suffer.“Relax, Zayn. Please. I understand your feelings. I feel the same, but we need to stay composed.” Kabir said, placing his hand on my shoulder, sitting beside me in the car backseat.“I wanted to kill him, Kabir. Brutally.” I confessed, my gaze burning with fury.“I understand, man. I feel the same. But today, everything unfolded just as we expected,” he replied, and I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself.The meeting and the after-party had proceeded smoothly, and as we had planned, Oberoi himself had approached me regarding the Pune branch of the hotel we intended to open.Well, why wouldn't he? Getting a partnership with a number one billionaire
Zayn’s P.O.V. I entered the room and my heart pierced as I saw her sobbing, sitting on the edge of the bed. I don’t know what I’m going to say to her, and I don’t know how to console her. I’ve never talked softly with anyone, so I don’t know how to say sweet things to cheer someone up. However, seeing her, I want to do something for her. I desperately want to do something that might bring a smile to her face or stop the tears she is shedding, which are piercing my heart. Shaking my thoughts away, I took a few steps closer to her. “Myr- Myra—” As she looked at me, she stood up immediately in fright, making my heart ache. I didn’t want her to be afraid of me. Never! I approached her and gently cupped her face with my palms. She was looking down, but as soon as my palm touched her, she slowly lifted her hazel eyes to meet mine. We kept staring at each other, but her eyes continued to shed tears, which made me feel even more guilty. “Hey, please don’t cry. You look beautiful
Kabir’s P.O.V.Zayn and I were heading towards his room, both of us seething with anger towards the culprit who had dared to steal the file.Zayn was striding ahead, his steps quickened by his fury, and I hurried to keep pace with him, but out of nowhere, someone yanked me into a corner, leaving me completely shocked.Then, my eyes fell on a person standing in front of me with a smiling face.It was Roshini."You're here? Damn. Was the whole 24 hours of no chatting and calling just an act? You came all this way for me?" She exclaimed, her smile widening, catching me off guard.I opened my mouth to explain that her assumptions were incorrect, but she didn't let me speak."Was I so irresistible that you couldn't resist?" She teased, raising an eyebrow as she flashed a mischievous grin."Rosh-"Before I could finish my sentence, she pressed her lips against mine, pulling me closer by my collar, leaving me stunned. I forgot everything as I responded to the kiss, gripping her waist and pu
