his only obsession

chapter : 7

Aman had just come out of the interview when some people came and stood in front of him.

One of them stepped forward, held out his phone, and said, "Our boss wants to speak with you."

At first, he was very confused.

He couldn't understand who these people were or why they had surrounded him.

Still, with trembling hands, he took the phone and held it to his ear.

At first, Aman was quite confused, but then he nervously took the phone and started listening.

A voice came from the other end, "How are you, Mr. Aman?"

It was William. He continued, "Our boss said that if you want to see your two sisters safe and sound, we've sent a car for you. Please get in it and come here."

At first, he couldn't make sense of it. He was about to say something when the call suddenly disconnected.

In a panic, he immediately called Mini and Ruhaanika, but both of their phones were switched off.

His legs went weak.

With his sisters' safety at stake, he didn't waste a moment and got into the car that had been sent.

The car started moving.

Aman kept asking them, "Where are you taking me? Where are my sisters?" and was also shouting in anger, but the men had no expression on their faces.

They just drove in silence, as if Aman's screams weren't even reaching their ears.

The car continued for another hour before stopping in front of a luxurious villa, located in a desolate and deserted area miles away from the city's hustle and bustle.

There was a dense forest all around, and a strange silence hung in the air. It was so quiet you could hear your own breath. It felt as if no human had set foot in that place for years.

A shiver went down his spine as he looked around—aside from this eerie villa, there was not a single house, person, or even a shadow in sight for miles.

Just dense jungle, a graveyard-like silence, and the villa's dark silhouette cutting through it.

Just then, a guard glared at him in a harsh voice and said, "Come inside!"

His voice was so stern that Aman snapped out of his daze. His heart was pounding, and he was drenched in sweat, but thinking of his sisters, he quietly followed them inside.

As soon as Aman entered the large hall, his breath caught.

It wasn't a hall; it looked more like a demon's court—tall, black walls, dim red light, and a terrifying silence in the air. With every step, it felt as if the walls were staring him down.

As Aman's eyes fell on the large, black sofa in the center of the hall, the ground seemed to fall out from under him.

Ruhanika and Mini were lying unconscious there... Their hands and feet were bound with thick ropes, their hair was disheveled, and even in their unconscious state, the fear of death was clearly visible on their innocent faces. In the dim red light of the hall, their faces looked even more terrifying.

Seeing his sisters in this state, Aman's blood ran cold. His eyes widened, and his heart began to pound so hard it felt like it would burst from his chest. And the next moment, losing all his senses, he screamed at the top of his lungs—

*"Ruhanika... Mini... open your eyes...!!!"*

He couldn't stop himself and ran to her like a madman, dropping to his knees and shaking her to try and wake her up.

His eyes were filled with tears, his hands trembling...

Just then, a terrifyingly deep voice echoed from behind, cutting through the darkness —

*"You dare lay a hand on Ruhanika..."

Aman turned to look at the voice, his breath catching in his throat.

Aditya was slowly descending the stairs, dressed in a black suit, a devilish smile on his face, and a dangerous glint in his eyes as if he had just spotted his prey.

With every step he took, the silence in the entire hall grew deeper, as if Death itself were walking toward them.

Aman's eyes were red with anger and fear. Looking at Aditya, he said in a trembling voice—

*"Who are you...? And why are you doing all this? What did my sisters ever do to you? Why have you captured them…

He came right up to Aman, looking him in the eye and said—

*"What's the hurry, Aman... to find out everything?*

*Rushing spoils the game... This is just the beginning; the whole story is yet to be told.

Aditya's face changed in an instant. His smile vanished, and his eyes turned bloodshot.

Grinding his teeth, he leaned in close to Aman's ear and whispered,

*"That night... Your sister Mini saw me kill someone.

*And how could I let someone who sees my truth live? How could I ever forgive such a mistake, huh?"*

His voice was so cold and terrifying that a shiver ran through Aman's entire body the moment he heard it.

Aditya took a long drag from his cigarette and, blowing the smoke in Aman's face, said,

*"Now I'm wondering... what punishment should I give him? You tell me... should I kill him, or make him suffer so much that he'll wish for death?"*

As soon as he heard that, the scene from that night flashed through Aman's mind like a bolt of lightning —

Mini had come home in the middle of the night, trembling violently, drenched in sweat, and her eyes were filled with sheer terror. She kept repeating the same thing over and over...

"Brother... I... I saw someone die... blood... so much blood..."*

That night, Aman had dismissed her words as a bad dream, but now he realized it wasn't a dream; it was reality—the reality of death.

Just then, Aman fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face. He clasped his hands together before Aditya and said—

*"Look... we won't tell anyone, we promise! Let my sisters go... please spare them... she's just a child, don't do anything to her... I'm begging you!"

His voice held fear, helplessness, and the last hope of a brother, echoing through the terrifying hall.

Seeing Aman on his knees like that, with his hands clasped together and crying, a crooked, devilish smile spread across Aditya's face.

He slowly circled around him and then, placing a hand on his shoulder, said—

*"Oh, wow... so much love for your sisters? That's quite a sight to see. Alright then... I'll let you go, but I have one condition..."*

There was something dangerous in that crooked smile of his, hinting that the condition was going to be worse than death.

Then Aditya leaned in front of Aman, a dirty and dangerous glint appearing in his eyes, and said softly—

*"I want your older sister... If she stays with me, I'll let the younger one go right now."*

As soon as he said that, his crooked smile became even more terrifying, as if he already knew what Aman was going to do next.

Hearing this, Aman's blood boiled. He grabbed Aditya's collar in a flash and, roaring, said—

*"How dare you speak like that about my sister!"*

As soon as Aman said that, the guards standing all around simultaneously pointed their guns at him.

Just then, hearing the commotion, Mini and Ruhaanika, who were unconscious in a corner, came to their senses and, upon seeing the horrifying scene before them, let out a scream.

Aditya let out a small, devilish laugh and, gently removing Aman's hand from his collar, looked at Ruhanika.

Then, looking him straight in the eyes, he said,

*"Baby doll... are you watching your brother's courage?

Then Aditya gave his guards a signal with his eyes.

On the signal, the guards grabbed Aman from behind and forced him to his knees. Aman struggled, but he was no match for them.

Seeing all this, Ruhaanika was terrified, tears welled up in her eyes, and she screamed in a trembling voice—

*"Why are you doing this... leave us alone! What have we ever done to you... please, leave my brother alone!

Just as Ruhanika was about to go to Aman, Aditya grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him.

Ruhanika started trembling with fear as Aditya leaned in close to her face and said softly—

*"Baby doll... from now on, you're only to think about me, okay? Forget about your brother, your sister... forget everyone. Now, you're only mine."*

His grip was so tight that Rohanika couldn't free herself, no matter how hard she tried.

And seeing all this, Mini was in shock. Tears were streaming down her face. She couldn't hold herself back any longer and said to Aditya—

*"Please let them go... I know you're doing all this because of me... Please! These two haven't done anything wrong. If you have to do anything, do it to me, but please let them go!"*

There was helplessness in her voice, as if she was ready to sacrifice herself for her siblings.

Aditya gave Mini a cold look and then said with a dangerous smile—

*"I'm taking your sister... and from today, she's mine alone. Understood? And tell your brother not to try any smart moves, or the consequences will be dire."*

Saying this, he gripped Ruhaanika's hand even tighter.

Seeing Ruhaanika in such agony, Aman's anger soared to new heights.

He broke free from the guards with all his might and ran towards Aditya like a madman to kill him—

But before he could reach Aditya, a guard raised his gun and shot Aman right in the chest.

*Bang...!*

The sound of the gunshot echoed throughout the hall, and Aman collapsed to the ground, blood pouring from his chest.

The scene was so horrifying that a deafening silence fell over the place for a moment... a silence so intense that everyone's breathing could be heard.

Roohaanika and Mini were frozen in place, unable to comprehend what had just happened. Aman lay on the ground, drenched in blood.

As soon as they regained consciousness, both of them screamed and burst into tears —

*Ruhanika - "Bhaiya!!!! No... open your eyes, Bhaiya... what have you done...!!!"*

*Mini rushed towards Aman - "Aman... Aman wake up... please wake up...!!! Aditya, what have you done, you animal...!!"*

The whole room was echoing with their screams.

Aditya hadn't expected any of this to happen either. But after the shot was fired, he too was stunned for a moment, then immediately pulled himself together.

He forcefully pulled the crying Rouhanika into his arms and began to drag her along with him.

As he was leaving, he ordered his guards in a menacing voice—

*"Take her to the hospital immediately... She's not to die! And take this girl, Mini, to the other mansion, blindfolding her... After today, these two sisters will never meet again!"*

Ruhanika struggled to break free, but Aditya's grip was like iron.
