(The Chains Beneath the Table)
After the morning’s tenderness and the bath, Abhi thought he might find some peace. But Aman had something else in mind. He dressed Abhi in an expensive, midnight-blue suit that matched the color of his eyes perfectly.
"Mr. Abhi, there’s a major business meeting today," Aman said, straightening Abhi’s tie. "As the new owner of the Mehra empire, this is my first official meeting, and I want my 'lucky charm' by my side."
Abhi looked at him with pure loathing. "You’re going to take me out like this? In these chains?"
Aman gave a mysterious smile. "No one will even know, baby. The chains will be hidden under your trousers."
The city’s top business tycoons were gathered in the palace’s conference hall. Aman sat Abhi in the chair directly next to him. The table was so large and heavy that whatever happened beneath it remained invisible to everyone else. As the meeting began, Aman leaned down and locked Abhi’s chains to the iron leg of the table.
Abhi felt suffocated. He was in front of everyone, yet he was bound like a pet beneath the table.
During the meeting, Aman delivered the presentation with striking authority. His voice carried the same confidence that had brought the Mehra empire to its knees. But beneath the table, Aman’s hand was constantly roaming over Abhi’s thighs, reminding him that no matter where he was, he was Aman’s property.
Abhi tried to push his hand away, but the faint clink of the chains terrified him. If he made even the slightest move, his 'S-Class Alpha' pride would be pulverized in front of the entire world.
"What’s wrong, Mr. Abhi? You look a bit restless?" Aman asked with a smile in front of everyone.
Abhi gritted his teeth and replied, "I... I am fine."
Aman tightened his grip beneath the table and whispered into Abhi’s ear, "Baby, you will be punished for this attitude tonight. But for now, just smile and show everyone how happy you are with your new master."
Once the meeting ended and everyone had left, Aman unlocked the padlock and lifted Abhi into his arms. "See? No one suspected a thing. You are so safe within my shadow. Now, let’s go home and start our private meeting."
Tears of helplessness streamed down Abhi's face. He realized that Aman didn't just want to keep him locked in a room; he wanted him in chains even in front of the entire world.
