You Awoke A Beast in ME!

Chapter 7

Meera’s POV

I was tired, it was really a long day where I couldn’t manage to do anything. As I stepped into my apartment I hit something. Is it a chair? When did I put chair at the entrance? I slowly searched for the switch and turned it on only to find my apartment in a mess.

“what...? ”

My furniture was turned upside down, well, I never owned it, it was my landlord who owned the furniture and the apartment. The wallpapers were torn there was water on the floor. The hinges of the bedroom door were broken. Who would want to steal from my house? Even if they did they wouldn’t find a penny for I only use net banking and a little cash in my purse. It seemed like someone was searching for something more valuable than money.

“Finally! You are home Ms. Rajput”,

Someone emerged from the dark shadow casted by the dim lit corner. I’m so dead! Are they here to kill me? What is this?

“Cool down Miss, I have no intentions of putting you through the pain. So please, if you will cooperate this will be over before you know it”,

Spoke the man adorning black suit, he looked like a gentleman but if he is the one behind ruining my apartment I seriously doubt him. I gulped only to find a 5 more men standing next to him.

“what are you? Men in black? But, seriously I am no alien”,

I smiled nervously, but it was quite a dumb joke as they were all in different.

" I will make myself clear, and this time I want an answer! ”

Spoke the not-so-gentleman while holding his black shades in his hand and walking towards me. I don’t get a good feeling about this. I was near to a table with shattered pieces of vase. Before I could plan on something I was interrupted.

" Don’t even think about,” he warned.

Giving up, I sighed.

“what is it that you want? ”

" well, since we have finally come to the point without much violence I hope you would not delay any further to turn in the file”,

He spoke acting like a gentleman, is he bipolar? A moment ago he was looking like the joker from batman and now he suddenly acts civilised.

" what are you talking about? What file? ”

I don’t understand what this man was talking, forget that, I don’t even know his name! And he asks me about some God forsaken file?

" stop acting innocent, I am well aware that you have the file! So better hand it in. “,

" Are you crazy? What file are you even talking about? And who are you to barge in my property? ”

I was scared to death when I heard a gunshot. I’m dead, I’m dead! I am so so dead.

Before I knew it I ducked and ran out of my apartment. I was running down stairs when I dumped into a hard chest. This cologne, it seemed familiar.

" Hey sweetie! In a hurry? “,

Gosh! That’s him! Why do I feel like I have jumped from frying pan into fire? I heard another gunshot when he pulled me closer and took out his gun. Is this for real!? I have never been good with violence, one reason being my childhood and I just can’t take it!

" Close your eyes Angel, this is going to get a little dirtier “,

No! Are you kidding me? Don’t do this! I wish I could have spoken it out but words just wouldn’t come out. There were a few more gunshots. But this time the bullets hit the 5 men and the unknown intruder. They were all lying in the pool of blood. I have never seen anyone die like this before. Its murder! I could feel his grip tighten around my waist. I don’t know when but I kind of passed out in his arms soon after witnessing the horrible incident.

Aryan’s POV

" I want a pair of nighties for the lady and get the bath ready”,

I turned around to see the most beautiful bird sleeping so defenceless on my bed. I could see her long hair flowing like a dark night all over the pillow. I was finally happy that she’s with me.

Today was something I never expected to happen. I thought declaration of my engagement with her would keep her safe as no one dares to look at what’s mine. But that jackass Danish crossed his limit. Thinking that I’d share my business with her was his biggest mistake although, somewhere I feel guilty of what I did. I used my precious Meera as a bait to kill Danish. I remember how scared she was when she heard the gun shots. Her tears were flowing out like droplets of pearls. I couldn’t stop staring at her. As I shot those men dead, I saw her go weak on knees. Her eyes were wide open, and suddenly she puked on my suit before passing out.

This girl is something, she dares to fight me, slap me and get into trouble with guys and yet, she can’t handle elevators or violence.

" How hard and how deep are you going to make me fall for you? “,

I stroke her hair, she sleeps so carefree. At this rate I’m only going to lose control. I guess it can’t be helped.

“After all I’ll have to take the fees of protecting you”,

I smiled and kissed her lightly on the lips. I kissed her over and over but she wouldn’t wake. So defenceless, I smirked before burying my head in the Crook of her neck.

I didn’t realise when the maid came in and left the trolley with food and the nighties that I ordered. I was just peaceful as I had the one in my arms. All of a sudden I felt light pushes on my chest. They were kind of ticklish but, I was loving the scent of hers I tried to snuggle more when I received a hard push. So hard that I fell off the bed.

“How dare you! “,

There she was my sweetie, fuming with rage and yet looking so adorable with her oversized kurti. I could see her collar bone as she was trying to say something, her high neck was revealing her collar bone because the top was too big for her. How can someone who wears oversized and full length clothes despite being so skinny make me go crazy? Before I knew it, she threw a pillow at me.

" Are you crazy? What are you doing here? And why are you shirtless? ”

She spoke trying to cover herself from my eyes she pulled the blanket up to her chest.

" I’m here because this is my room and I’m shirtless because last night you puked on my shirt”,

Her eyes were avoiding me like a plague, she never looked me in the eyes and constantly tried to avoid my gaze. She had never done that before. I guess she is shy! God! This girl is going to kill me.

" look you were attacked last night, I want to take the responsibility since you are my soon to be wife”,

I held her by the shoulders and leaned closer and yet she wouldn’t look me in the eye. Instead she pushed me back.

" are you crazy? I am not your fiance! And what do you mean responsibility? I am a nobody to you just like you are to me! So stay away from me! ”

Her guts are remarkable, although she had been through such difficult situation just last night, she acts as if she is brave.

" do you think I’ll let you go this time?“,

I can see how vulnerable she was and yet she tries to put up the mask of in different brave lady.

" do you think you can stop me? “,

She gave me a glare, finally our eyes meet. I could see anger in her eyes but she just is adorable. I smiled at her.

" you think you got away last time on your own? How naive of you”,

" Yeah right! I can demonstrate the same this time as well and it won’t be hard”

She challenged me by raising her eye brow.

" Darling, you have gravely mistaken what I am capable of, last time you escaped was only because I let you! And how else do you think I reached you last night? ”

I leaned closer to her and she seemed to be in daze for a minute and then began our fight. She was hitting my bare chest while closing her eyes trying to leave the place while I was holding her down on the bed. That’s when we heard someone knock.

Great it was a lady maid, she came in to inform about the bath and walked away giggling. She thinks there was something going on but, clearly Meera wouldn’t let me touch her! What a misconception, I just sighed before turning towards Meera, who was now embarrassed.

" I am requesting you to please stay till the matters resolve, I just can’t see an innocent soul suffer because of me”,

With that I walked out of the room.
