You Awoke A Beast in ME!

Chapter 11

Aryan’s POV

Meera’s face had shock written all over it. She was pale and was caressing her wrist, I might have been quite rough on her and hurt her unknowingly but, how could I keep cool when she’s the one I’m desperate for.

" I just wanted you to know what it was that lead to these circumstances”,

I spoke as I walked towards her chair. She had her gaze on the file and wouldn’t look at me.

" who are you? “,

She spoke after a while, still gazing at the file.

" a farmer who is killing the pests I guess”,

She looked up at me, I could see her Fragile frame standing before me with the support of the table. The height difference between us was quiet evident as her petite small frame stood before me but somehow I’ve always found it adorable.

" this file has some extremely explicit content which can jeopardise the world’s peace at the moment “, she spoke.

" I understand that, it’s not like I’d let my hard work go in vain. This file is going to end up in my fire place tonight. I just thought, before it meets its fate, I might as well let you know what it actually was”,

" what? You are going to burn something as valuable as this? “,

She spoke, as if she couldn’t believe what I just said.

" of course sweetie, after all I don’t want people coming after you”,

She was going to argue with me when we heard a gun shot. God damn it! Have they come here for us?

“what was that? “, she was scared.

I know who this could be. It was Viran the alias of Danish, the news of his best friend’s death surely hit him hard. That’s why he tried to sell those poor girls the same night to get a revenge on me. He was the reason I had to meddle in this matter and expose his racket. This guy did ruin my wedding night but I won’t let him go any further than that.

" Meera, I want you to trust me”,

I spoke as I held her hand in mine.

" are you kidding me? How could I trust the guy I barely know! Plus, who knows what you are going to do with me? You are just a beast with hideous intentions “,

She was ranting like a kid with no control over her anger. I know, she could turn from a scared cat to a wild cat in moments. I pulled her by her hand and held her close to my chest while covering her mouth with the other hand. I could sense that there was a whole gang out there.

“If we don’t hurry we’ll end up in a big trouble, okay? “, I whispered in her ear.

She nodded her head. I told her to carry the file and the tape as I collected my gun. There was nobody in the mansion. Yeah, I knew something like this would turn so I gave the maids half day leave. I called Tahir and asked him to be ready with the car at the secret spot. Yes, this mansion has many secret tunnels to escape in situations like these.

There were a few more gun shots but this time they seemed louder. They will be approaching the first floor any moment now. I snuck my arm around Meera before I dashed into the secret passage. We walked through the tunnel but his men were behind us. I let Meera run ahead of me.

“Meera don’t look back no matter what! Just go and you will find a man and don’t forget what I told you about the file! “,

I started firing at them but this was not good. I have the habit of being alone so I don’t hire many men. Basically there are very few people who work under me, and I certainly don’t want to make an army of mine because that would seem too obvious and jeopardise my identity. It was me against 7 men with revolvers. I managed to dodge the bullets but as I reached the car where Meera and Tahir were waiting, a bullet hit my arm. The pain was excruciating but I’ve had worse so, I got into to the car before setting the wire dangling along the ceiling of the tunnel on fire.

My mansion was totally wired with strings dipped in kerosene. These strings were connected to every single part of the mansion. This was also my idea because I know my enemies would try and attack me so, I made sure every single time I fled the place I’d burn it to Ashes.

I could see those men burning in fire although, I was not sure if Viran was in it. I snatched the file and the tape from Meera’s hand and also set it on fire before throwing it into the massive fire that my mansion was on.

" Aryan! Why would you do that? “,

I turned around to see Meera all safe, that was all I needed . We got into the car with Tahir in driver’s seat while Meera and I at the back in the passengers seat.

" Oh my god! Aryan, what’s wrong with your hand? We must get you to the hospital! “,

My darling was worried for me, this was truly the heaven that I had pictured for myself. She’d never call my name but now, she was all worried about me. She was calling my name over and over again, maybe that was when I fell in love with my name. I couldn’t help but smile.

" we’ve got to do something, Tahir please! Just take us to the hospital “,

" No, Tahir take us to other hide out. I’m fine”,

I said, acting a bit serious. She looked at me in astonishment

" how can you be fine? There’s so much blood! “,

" I’m used to it, I’ve tolerated a lot worse. Although, I’m happy that you are worried for me”,

I said looking into her eyes. She averted her eyes from me immediately as if she were caught committing a crime. She never fails to amuse me.

" what are you? Crazy? Why would you collect such explicit information and then set it on fire? “,

Her tone clearly said she was worried about me no matter how much she denied or ignored me. I was starting to feel a little dizzy. I guess it’s because I lost so much blood. I looked at Meera as she was looking into my eyes. I slowly rested my head on her shoulder.

" Trust me Meera no file is worth your safety “,

I mumbled in her ears before passing out.
