Chapter 9a: Mission Track, Locate and Retrieve Mrs. Annika Shivvay Singh Oberoi

With both the extensions of his body parts firmly in place the terminator was back in action to track, locate and retrieve the furtive Mrs. Annika Shivvay Singh Oberoi. Commence Mission!

"How long does it take to locate a person with an RFID chip for heaven's sake!" I muttered to myself as I paced the room like a caged jaguar.

I picked my phone that I had placed on her bedside table and sat down on her side of the bed while I called the buffoon in charge of keeping an eye on her. That came out wrong I thought because I was the one keeping an eye on her till half an hour ago. I meant the buffoon in charge of keeping a track of her once outside the Oberoi Mansion.

Khanna!", I thundered into the phone as I absentmindedly traced the peacock pattern on her pillow.

I heard a very out of breath and panting Khanna on the other end answering, "Yes sir... we tracked her to The Taj Mahal Palace. I am stepping in right now. Should I call you back once I locate her? "

"No", I almost shouted eagerly worried that he might disconnect the call. "Stay on the line while you look for her."

While Khanna was still on the phone walking through the Lobby, I heard the bustle and noise in the background I was truly puzzled what Annika would be doing at The Taj?

Suddenly what happened this morning crossed my mind and I thought in alarm- Daksh!!!

She went to meet him and he is going to try and convince her to change her mind. None of Annika's friends could afford The Taj and Annika herself would not spend her money on such luxuries. That was more up Tia's street.

I got you now Annika, I though smiling victoriously, right where I want you. All your talks about wanting to be independent with no man in your life were just to lure him in some more.

I gently traced the figure of the Goddess on the nightlight and smiled scornfully. So unlike the Goddess the family thinks you are. This time I would not walk away. This time I was going to confront her and unmask her for who she really was.

It is going to be 'Curtains' for your act my dear and your true face to be revealed. I think you are going to be an even bigger disappointment than I was to all here.

While Khanna was trying to locate her, I was already grabbing my jacket and walking out of my room with the car keys in my hand.

"Going somewhere Shivvay ?? Not in search of Annika I hope", Om asked with a grin on his face.

I glared at him in response and continued to proceed walking out not breaking my stride while I slipped into my jacket.

"Seriously what the fark Man? You need to let that girl be", he chided in a teasing tone and slapped Rudra on his back.

"Yes Bhaiya", Rudra responded. "You look like a jealous lover who is in pursuit of her in case she ran away.Remember Shah Rukh in Daar??!!! Aaeee... !!! Aaanniikkaa ..."

The two jokers snickered and gave their cheap jokes' high fives' and wiggled their eyebrows at each other while I calmly strode passed them.

I had decided to ignore their jabs for today and concentrate on the task at hand as I stepped out.

"Sir I see her", stated Khanna.

"Stay with her and update me if anything changes. I am on my way", I commanded. " And Khanna ..."

"Yes Sir..??", asked Khanna

"Lose her and you lose your job.. Understand??!!", I warned

"Perfectly Sir but I won't because right now she is just sitting down in the Lobby and keeps looking towards the entrance. It looks like she is waiting for someone", he replied confidently.

Of course she is I thought as slid on the blue tooth, I pulled out of the driveway and sped down the road.

On normal days I hate Mumbai traffic but today I was wishing we had flying cars like the Jetson. The more I sat in traffic the more I fumed at Mumbai and Annika, in turns. It took me a good two hours to get to The Taj during which time I got a steady update from Khanna on my blue tooth..

According to him an hour ago Mrs. Annika Oberoi had gone for a long stroll around The Taj, fed the pigeons three times, had a long discussion with the channawala about the price of food, had her palm read and a parrot tell her fortune at which she simply rolled her eyes, watched a street dance and had taken part in it as well and yes she was a good dancer according to him (humph! Thank God no one knew she was the Oberoi bahu. That would have been on the front pages of the Times as scintillating news).

She also answered 5 phone calls during that time and at the end of 2 calls she said ... Khanna paused here and cleared his throat clearly too uncomfortable to go on... I was irritated with Khanna and asked him to quit stalling and spit it out. He muttered as fast as he could as though saying it fast would reduce my wrath.

"At the end of 2 phone calls she had a big smile, jumped up and down and kissed the phone saying I love you ... I love you and hugged herself after she ended the call", said Khanna completely out of breath.

I shifted the gear roughly and at the machine making a sound of protest at that move, I swore at the damage it was doing to my car all thanks to HER.

"Sir??!!", asked Khanna in a very soft voice to make sure I had not disconnected.

"Where is she now", I rasped through clenched teeth as I felt my chest constrict at the last statement.

"She back in the lobby waiting Sir", replied a frightened Khanna.

"I am pulling in now you can leave", I ordered as I pulled my blue tooth off my ear, threw it on the passenger seat and parked the car at the same time.

I jumped out and slammed the door as I took long purposeful strides towards the Lobby.

My eyes scanned the room as I entered and instantly zeroed in on her sitting there at a distance.

There was a man standing in front of her while she spoke with him and smiled cheerfully. Then they began to walk off into the Hotel.

What the hell was going on her I thought? Following them almost at a run, I reached outside The Patisserie just as they sat down. I could see the back of the man's head and realized that this was not Daksh she was meeting. Who is that guy and what was she doing?

I saw him slide some documents towards her and she briefly scanned them before she signed. Really Annika??!! I thought to myself. You sign a document without reading it thoroughly first?

The man seemed happy that the task was done and quickly struck out his hand to seal the deal. No way Mister!!, I thought, not on my watch you won't.

I won't have her trapped into a deal she was going to regret and certainly not while she was officially married to Shivvay Singh Oberoi. She was my responsibility till she remained my wife, willing or unwilling. Shivvay knew how to look after his own, even one that did not want looking after, I thought as I walked towards them.

I strode into The Patisserie, just as she was going to slide her hand into his, and caught her wrist. What's with all the unnecessary touching and handshake, I thought as I grimaced at her hand almost touching his, as I smoothly slid my hand into hers to hold it back from moving forward again.

I came face to face with a very shocked and astonished Mrs. Annika Oberoi who looked like she had just seen a ghost. I ignored her and turned my attention to the man sitting across her totally surprised to see him stand up and stutter," Mr. Oberoi!! ..eeer!! I mean Shivvay Sir!! Good Afternoon Sir".

I narrowed my eyes and scrutinized him slowly from head to toe while I sharply asked, "And who in the devils name are you??!"

A very soft and stammered, "Anil... Anil Roy, sir. I am Mrs. Oberoi's Event Manager".

I turned to look at Annika with a disbelieving look and wondered what this minx had been up to behind my back to already have this Anil working for her.

As I stared at her questioningly she pursed her lips, cocked her eyebrow and indicated towards her hand with her eyes. I looked down my hand still firmly in mine and shrugged casually while I turned my attention back to Anil Roy - The Event Manager hired by Mrs. Oberoi.

"And Mr. Anil Roy how long have you worked with Mrs. Oberoi?", I inquired coolly, still holding on to my very own escape artist, Mrs. Annika Oberoi's hand firmly just in case she made another dash for the door with a very unsophisticated looking Mr. Oberoi in hot pursuit.

I had not forgotten the rigorous exercise from this morning and it was a lesson well learned.

"Since the past 5 years Sir", smiled Anil puffing his chest proudly.

I wondered if the man had fallen and hit his head in his shower this morning or if Annika had a penchant for picking the loony ones to work with.

He was still smiling his idiotic, pompous smile while I turned as slowly as possible, half way towards Annika, in case I startled the poor village idiot. Keeping him firmly within my line of vision I looked questioningly at Mrs. Annika Oberoi again.

Annika sighed wearily and stated, "As much pleasure as it would give me to dissect each part of that complex and disgusting brain of yours to understand what goes on up there, I cannot for the life of me read your mind Mr.Oberoi. Can you lower your questioning eyebrow and just question already?!!"

"Well Mrs. Oberoi... Isn't the question obvious even to an idiot?" I asked maddened and annoyed at her games.

"Since it seems only obvious to the intelligent likes of you pray enlighten the less intellectual ones what it may be", she retorted sarcastically.

"Annika", I closed my eyes keeping my temper down and holding on to the last of my patience as I continued, "how could he have been working for you for the past 5 years when you obviously have not had this business since the past 5 years!"

"That is because he works for THIS Mrs. Oberoi and hello to you too Shivvay!!? You are not having us followed by any chance, are you?" drifted Badi Ma's smooth voice over Anil's shoulder.

As Anil turned towards her, she thanked him for his time and effort and dismissed him. Then she turned her attention next to her rogue of a nephew who was wearing a very sheepish look at the moment with his wife's hand still firmly in his.

"Since you are here now won't you join us for lunch Shivvay. Tej has just pulled in and should be here soon. We are eating at the Aquarius. Let's make it a double date shall we??I am sure Tej would love to see how you spend your day off work. I have to sign off some cheques for the conference rooms so I'll meet you and Annika there in say 10?", she said in a teasing voice and winked at me as she turned and left.

Chapter 9b: Target Located,Retrieved and All Parameter's Secured Around Mrs. Annika Oberoi

Annika who had been watching the exchange was amused beyond happiness at Badi Ma's style of putting the Bhagad Billa in his place.

I giggled at the picture of a very uncomfortable Mr.Oberoi who looked like he had been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Shivvay turned to me and narrowed his eyes as he watched me trying hard to control my fit of giggles. What happened next came as a complete shock to me.

He hauled me up from the chair, pulled me against him in one smooth practiced move and slid my arm behind my back the way he usually did.

I went silent and rigid as I braced for the pain that would come with the arm twisting. But to my surprise I was thrown off balance when the other arm snaked around my waist to hold on to the slightly twisted wrist gently and pull me towards him. This was uncomfortable and awkward instead of painful and I was not sure what to make of it.

His eyes turned the colour of my favourite shawl as his breath quickened and his head lowered. I turned my head to one side instinctively and to my immense embarrassment found out that the whole place was watching our intimate exchange.

"Stop it Mr. Oberoi!" I whispered furiously and tried to push him away with the other hand. But he caught hold of the other one as well and held it between us as he pulled me in closer to trap our hands between us.

"Everyone is watching!" I continued as I gritted my teeth, "You're not worried about the scene you are making now?? What about that family reputation that you rant about all the time."

I felt his warm breath in my ear and felt my body instinctively respond with quickened breaths and erratic heartbeats while my brain felt fuzzy.

Damn this man!! Damn him to hell and beyond I thought. Why does he affect me like this? I need a martial arts lesson in mind and body control and self-defense as well if I am to live with this man for another few months.

Shivvay's voice whispered dangerously low in my ears as he questioned, "Who were you speaking to when you ended the two calls with the emotional display and I love You's' while you were strolling out there earlier today?"

I was stunned at his question and wondered how he knew. He WAS having us followed, the low life!! I should have known he would not be easy to give the slip with his team of blood hounds.

"That is none of your concern Mr. Oberoi", I snapped back incensed that he was having me followed and my conversations listened to. Did this man ever hear about the term 'invasion of privacy'? If it were not for his khidaki-tod family I would have slapped a law suit on him. Heck! I would have slapped a dozen law suits on him every week for the rest of his arrogant life.

"I would not push my luck Mrs. Annika Oberoi after the stunt you pulled this morning. But still I' ll make you a deal, if you do not want this scene to get more entertaining for the people watching you tell me who you spoke with and I stop right here. This way we are both happy", he whispered, his lips almost brushing my ear this time.

"Ok .. Ok stop!" I whispered back. "It was Badi Ma... she has signed me up as an independent business to partner with her. This means I work with her but for myself. Those were the initial papers I needed to sign that Anil brought in. I was excited and of course told her how much I love her for it when she called me while I was strolling outside. The second call was from Soumya who told me she had done as I requested and put in the application to register my business and so I told her ..."

".. I love her", completed Shivvay and I felt him smile and relax but to my chagrin he made no move to widen the distance between my ear and his mouth.

His lips brushed my ear while they slowly and purposefully slid down my cheek and stopped there his warm breath fanning them. His hold tightened instead of loosening and his fingers started caressing the inside of my wrist lightly till I felt my head swim and my knees go weak.

"Shivvay ... you promised and you are going back on your word as a gentleman", I protested breathlessly.

"Ah!! But I am NO gentleman when it comes to you, am I darling? You always manage to bring out the dark rogue in me somehow. The part that even I had not known existed till I met you", he drawled and laughed softly.

I felt him pull back and loosen his hold slightly, still keeping his arm encircled around me though.

As I stared in confusion at his face that was suddenly bright and beaming I felt like someone had waved a magic wand at him from behind my back. The angry young man had disappeared and was miraculously replaced by one wearing an almost boyish grin.

"See, giving me a straight answer was not so difficult was it Mrs. Annika Oberoi?", he asked in a teasing tone.

" Lunch!!? I am starved and I know Bade Papa is a stickler for time so we cannot afford to be late", and saying that he led me out his arm still firmly around my waist while I was still trying to process what could have caused the mysterious change in the very complex Mr. Shivvay Oberoi
