Tazz had already left, the fact disappointed Mahira, she wanted to know how it would feel to wake up in his arms after a long night of love and warmth, she wanted to feel the coziness that came from being in his arms in bed, with her face nuzzled into his chest and head cradled in his arms. It had been years that she’d felt like a real woman, all these years she had felt like she forgot the soft feminine side that lay hid within her, yesterday night’s lovemaking awoke in her something that was dead since so long and a new yearning burned within her all the more, she didn't care anymore, now that she gave herself to Tazz once again, she wanted to make the most of it while it lasted, she knew they're not meant to be together, but atleast she could make and collect some new memories that would last for this lifetime
“Ring” The ringing of her phone bought her back from her early morning revelry
Mahira stood frozen to spot as her world came crashing down in a spur of a moment, Tazz looked at her and immediately pushed Sonia away with force, she was pushed away and landed on the chair nearby“Tazz, what the hel..,” she stopped as she followed his gaze to the door and saw Mahira standing with a pale faceMahira’s eyes flickered as she returned back to her senses“I.. I’m sorry, I’ll come back later,” she turned and swiftly left, her voice was choked as she fought back the painful ball of emotions that was quickly forming in her throat.Reaching her workstation she held the table for support, unable to hold her tears back she rushed to the washroom, finding the last cubicle she entered it and shut the door, finally letting her emotions to flow
Mahira didn’t know how she managed to walk straight, her head felt heavy and vision blurred as she stepped out and hailed a cab, reaching home in a mentally dishevelled state. The minute she reached home she went in straight to have a shower, like she wanted to scrub away all the marks of betrayal Tazz had left on her body last night. She scrubbed her body hard in an attempt to get rid of all the pain but she didn’t know how to scrub her heart free of itAnything was okay.. anything, but the fact that he was with her in bed last night and that it was known to Sonia... how could it be, she wouldn't know if he would not divulge such intimate details, she recalled the entire conversation that Sonia had over her phone, she was a mess now, she cursed herself for having let herself loose last night, now she was in a spot, she yearned and ached more for him, his touch and yet she hated it with all her might
Mahira was enjoying the music and leaned back on the support that body which held her gave her, the ambience was dark, the hand that held her grabbed her palm and in one abrupt movement whirled her around, tugging her and held her closer to his chest, Mahira didn’t object as she laughed on being whirled around, trying to find her balance, as the music changed to Ricky MartinThe man had a strong and sturdy physique and stood tall, holding her firmly, she looked up at him but couldn’t see his face due to the dark ambience, soon they broke into a dance, he held her, pushed and pulled her, twirled her around as she laughed away to glory, dropping and lifting her in mind blowing lifts, Mahira was enjoying every bit of it, she was unabashed, uninhibited and shameless, the guy lifted her up and she laughed heartily throwing her head back, then he placed her down and pulled her in his arms, in a warm hug, he
TJ stood looking at her with a smile, he looked charming and that smile made him look boyish, a few strands of hair fell across his face, he wore a black jean and a black shirt paired with an ivory colored jacket, he did look dashing and any girl would be smitten by him, but not Mahira“What the hell are you doing here?’ she frowned at him, she didn’t like having men at her place except Tazz, she had already told him to refrain from coming here, yet he stood there towering over her“have you been stalking me?” she looked irritated, continuing to look for her stuff, stepping away from him“I just wanted to make sure you reached home safe and sound,” he bend down to pick all her scattered stuff and put it back in her purse, handing her the keys to her house
Tazz stood frozen for a while, digesting the information provided by TJ just now, several questions flooded his mind at this point‘How close was TJ getting to Maya?, did she like his company as well? did she already consider him a friend? had she lost it?’ he thought, she had not given him a single opportunity to explain himself, instead she ran away from the office only to dance and vent her heart out to his enemy no.1, did she know who TJ was, what kind of a guy he isTazz sighed as he walked to the elevator, hoping to get lucky and getting that door opened on himMahira was done with her shower, she had quite a bit to drink tonight, her head was heavy and she kept swinging between feeling down and sleepy, she walked to her bed and played some calming music to soothe her nerves, she wanted to forget everything and ha
Mahira didn’t know what was she doing and why, she wanted to break away from him, chase him out of her house, instead here she was, kissing him passionately in an initiative that she’d taken. She wasn’t feeling embarrassed, she felt full, with his love, maybe she had something going on at the back of her mind, but right now she didn’t want to destroy this moment, she wanted him just as much as he wanted her.Tazz stood up, Mahira looked up at him with a questioning look, he smiled and bent down to lift her up gently and walked to the bedroom, placing her onto the bed, he lay down next to her as she quietly observed him, no where could she find deceit or revenge written on his face or visible in his eyes.“Do you want me to go ahead?” he asked softly placing a kiss on her foreheadMahira just nodd
Mahira stood looking at Sam who had tears in his eyes, she felt sorry for him as he looked pitiable.“What’s wrong Sam?”“Mahi, I.. I can’t find Mona anywhere, she has disappeared somewhere,”Mahira was stunned, she didn’t know how to respond to this“I’m sorry to hear that but how may I help?” Sam broke into sobs“Looks like it had something to do with Mr. Jindal, co.. could you please talk to him and ask him to release Mona,”Mahira couldn’t believe what she heard, she felt outraged“Sam, its one thing that you’re upset for Mona but it another thing that you blame Mr. Jindal f
"Why did you leave me last time?" his eyes flickered, and she saw insecurity swim in his eyes as her heart lurched.Mahira looked away having no answer“Mr. Jindal, you’re doing it again, I have told you several times that I’m not Maya, I am Mahira, why do you keep insisting that I am someone else,” she pretended to look hurt, then looked into his eyes with an unbelievable expression“What?” Tazz realised that she wanted to say something that would not be great to hear“Have you.. you been making love to me and thinking about her?” she tried to look angry and hurt but Tazz knew the facts well‘Did this woman really think she could make me believe this cr
Maya tried hard to punch and kick him, but he was too strong for her, she felt repulsed as he tried to push open her lips with the force of his tongue, when she stood her ground firm he left her lips and glared at herLooking at the dangerous look in his red eyes, she regretted not having let Tazz come with her now, he was right, She shouldn’t have trusted TJ“Why.. can’t I kiss my bride to be?,” his breath reeked of whisky and she turned her face away in disgust“It should be done particularly now that my woman is lost in the thoughts of another man,” he sneered close to her face“We are not getting married, even if I would have wanted to , after what you did just now, I will never marry you,” She turned her face to look at him straight in his eyes, his jaw twitched and it was clear that he held back from unleashing the beast within“You have lost my trust and my respect for good TJ,” she looked into his eyes while he didn’t move, still glaring at her,“Just.. just stop for God’s sak
Now this really was news to him"Mahira was married to Petnovak!!," Tazz was totally taken aback, how fate plays a major role in people's lives, he just realised it, of all the places and projects he had to choose from, he zeroed in on this Island project, when he suddenly decided to get Maya on this project, his intention was purely to keep her close to him, but fate was playing at getting her closer to her family“Yes, and since these tribals have a unique magical way to bind souls and mates, when Mahira was killed, Petnovak and Little Tiger froze in a soul entanglement vortex, that night, Mahira communicated through me with her husband and child, somehow cutting off the bond so that they could continue to live,”Tazz was taken aback“Do such things really happen?”
Back in Singapore:“Anuj, I don’t understand, it’s been a few days and Tazz isn’t back, who do you think will be responsible for the losses incurred in business, how can he be so irresponsible,”Jairaj, Tazz and Anuj’s father had received a call by Tejraj informing that Tazz has not been concentrating on the business and some board of directors have been complaining about a new island project the company has over taken at a magnanimous amount“Dad, trust me, Bro has everything in control, there’s nothing wrong at the office here, I don’t understand who keeps giving you such misinformations,” Anuj turned to glare at Tejraj who sat leisurely on Tazz’s chair and read a newspaper“I don’t know anything, find that wast
It seemed like several seasons had passed by as the two lovers cozied up in each other’s arms, Tazz leaned his back on his car and she had the back of her head on his chest. The sun had set and the breeze had cooled down long back.Tazz held her firmly against his chest, finally he got to know what he wanted to, finally she admitted that she was his Maya, finally the game of cop and thief was over and all the misunderstandings had resolved, all but one..Who was that man who lay such a dangerous game of chess for them all, who went to the extent of raping and killing Mahira just to threaten Maya from going ahead with this wedding and whose motive was so big to have planned and schemed so wellHe truly wanted to dig more but stopped as soon as he sensed her discomfort, he cursed himself for being impatient when he felt her go
“Mahira is no more,”she looked straight ahead into nowhere in particular, her face was hard, eyes cold and stony, a whiff of strong breeze hit Tazz as the impact of her words set upon himHe felt engulfed in her pain for a moment as a look of deep sadness spread to her eyes“What happened?,”Mahira abruptly turned to look at Tazz, her face scrunched up in fury, her eyes shot daggers at Tazz and he stood aghast wondering why was she looking at him like he was the cause of her deathThen suddenly her face eased up, her eyes flickered and she looked away as tears brimmed up. She remembered Anuj’s words, all that happened to Tazz, he too was a victim just like her so why was she shooting daggers at him when the culprit is
‘Dear Nature, what is it that you play at, separated by misfortune but united by fortune,’Tazz looked at Mahira’s face coloured with shock and smiled, placing his left hand over the steering lazily, he looked straight ahead“She is adorable, cute, intelligent and a very wise kid, completely like me, a perfect miniature of me” he sounded proudHe continued to look afar with eyes that had pride in them, as if he could see her tottering around or walking towards him, then he looked down and smiled, shaking his head in disbelief“We have a strong bond between us right from the first time we met, she an...,”“When was the first time you met her?,” Mahira interrupted him, still unable to deal with thi
The vip room was dimly lit, loud music blared in the background and the neon red blue lights shone from the rotating disco ball across the room. A soft hand unbuttoned the shirt on the man’s body, he had drunk quite a bit and smiled as she slid her delicate fair and soft hand inside the shirt, caressing his chest, then moving to play with his nips, pinching them gently“Oh you naughty girl,” he laughed as he grabbed her hand and placed it on the belt of his pants, then he grabbed her hand again and rubbed it against his cr*tch“Ah! you are ready for me,” she mewled in her soft kitten like voice and quickly unbelted him, the man hungrily tugged at her blouse, pulling it off her head and grabbing her breast with one hand.She half lay on the couch, bent on her knees she took his erection into her moist w
Mahira froze momentarily and applied breaks abruptly as one of the RollsRoyce came to a sudden halt right in front of her car, her heart almost stopped beating for a moment in fear.The sharp blazing sun light hit her through the front glass, blinding her momentarily, however no sooner had she regained herself, she was overtaken with a rising sense of panic.She vaguely saw someone alight from the RollsRoyce that had blocked her path and walk towards her, she blinked several times but her eyes could only see spots of black dots because of the sun. The man took slow deliberate steps towards her, soon reaching her car he knocked on the window“Hey, It wasn’t my fault, it was you who stopped your car without any warning,” Mahira yelled without sliding the window down, blinking repeatedly to ease her sight back, but t
Mahira disconnected the phone when there was no response from the other end. Tama was still crying aloud“baby what’s wrong, why are you crying?,” Mahira panicked “Aaaa...waaaaaa...,” she kept going at it“Mommy I don’t want you to marry uncle,” she spoke in between sobs“Please mommy, please..waaaaaaa,” Mahira’s heart felt squeezed as she saw tears stain Tama's cheeks, wiping the tears from her face Mahira quickly held her close to her heart, she could not let this marriage happen without Tama’s consent, it was important that Tama accepts TJ, she took in a deep breath“Okay Tama.. baby.. listen to me, listen to Mama,”Tama&
