OS ENTRY - 6

Next day (early morning)

Yerba Buena

Madhu's pov started

We entered Balraj's Paradise disruption. It was the biggest motel in Yerba Buena. Located on the waterfront with an amazing view of the bay, Paradise disruption is touted as Yerba Buena's premiere hotel by top travel publications. It had rooftop spa and a busy bar. Praised for its calming aesthetic touches such as scented hallways, it is a boutique hotel with a Californian laid-back atmosphere.

"Excuse me, my name is Randhir Singh and she is my wife Mahi Singh...We need a room for staying... RK said to the man whose eyes were fixed on the computer screen. He was a thin short man of nearly in his 50s.He looked at me for a moment and then his eyes moved towards RK. He barely checked his reservation book.

"I don't see ur names... he said without concern.

"Well, we came from India and are very tired because of the flight...If u please let us stay...I will pay u double... RK said making a very sorry face.

"U didn't book, so I can't give u a room...We are full... he said without bothering to look up.

"But the motel is empty... I said to him in shock.

"Our guests will arrive...They have booked us beforehand... he said. RK and I looked at each other in disappointment but suddenly a voice caught our attention.

"Balraj, let them stay... the voice said. We looked back and saw a girl in her early 20s standing there at the bar. Her eyes were trained at RK.

"Ur room no. is 108, Balraj said and handed us over the keys.

"Thank u... RK said to the girl. She smiled at him as she sipped her drink and then replied huskily, "Pleasure is all mine...

Night- Mohan Singhania's mansion

Trish's pov started

Alighting from my sedan, I did my best to regain my semblance of composure before entering the mansion. I stepped to the side of the entrance to spray a bit of perfume to myself. I checked myself on the mirror and decided to re-bronze my cheeks. I unzipped my bag and checked my necessary beauty emergency gear, which I could need later.

Taking a deep breath, I entered the mansion. Blood pumped through my veins with more intensity as I realized I was on my way to have my first date night, that too with one of the most eligible bachelor of country Sid Singhania'.

I was lost in my thoughts when a girl in her early 20s came and informed me that Mr. Sid Singhania was waiting for me. As we reached the parlour, the girl left me alone. Taking a deep breath, I knocked on the door. Sid, wearing an expensive, European-tailored suit, greeted me with a soft warm smile. Butterflies erupted in my stomach seeing his gorgeous dimples.

"Hi! I greeted him and reached out to shake his hand which he in turn fluidly grasped, pulling me into him for a full body hug.

"Please, he smiled and held my hand to escort me inside. As I entered the large dining area, a beautifully decorated space with rich woods and fully decorated bar, he pulled out my chair and then gently tucked me under the table.

"I went ahead and ordered u a martini...I hope u don't mind... he said as the waiter served us drinks.

"I want no disturbance for next 2 hrs...Put up Don't disturb' board outside... he instructed the waiter who nodded his head and left us.

We began to drink and soon our conversation began.

"Why were u crying last day? he asked me.

"It was nothing... I said in embarrassment.

"U were running like that...It had to be something... he said with a smile.

"Sorry, if u are uncomfortable to share...then it's fine... he added immediately.

"No, it's nothing like that...Actually, I...I failed to complete my assignment...Teacher gave me 0...I was so scared to face RK bhai...He would be very angry to see my poor marks... I whispered. My eyes welled up immediately.

"Ur life is more precious than ur marks...Ur one wrong step could cost ur life, haunting ur loved ones for years... he said again, making me realize how stupidly I behaved that day.

"Now tell me everything about u... he said changing the topic.

"Everything? I asked him.

"Yes. He replied. Our conversation flew seamlessly as we talked about our parents.

"This is my family photo... he said showing me a folded photo from his wallet.

"Is she ur mother? I asked him.

"Yes. He replied.

"She is very beautiful... I said to him.

"Yes.That's why she couldn't stick to one guy... he replied making my smile drop immediately.

"She was a wh**e...and I hate her... he said with a eerily calm voice and then gave me a sad smile.

Yerba Buena Club (Night)

Madhu's pov started

The place, popularly known as Haven, was really crowded, making it difficult to see anything around me. The lights, throbbing loud music and constant jostling were adding more to the discomfort. Being shorter than average female in here with their high heels, I could only see through the gaps. We walked around the bars to find a place to chill.

"Where were these people before? I didn't see anyone throughout the whole day... I said loudly near RK's ears.

"Me 2... he replied loudly.

I looked up and saw a bar on the upstairs and there was another bar on the other side of the dance floor. We climbed the stairs and walked around the bar. It was less crowded as it meant only for VVIPs. But surprisingly we were not stopped.

"Want to have some drink? RK asked me.

"No thanks... I replied. He walked past me and ordered a ginger ale for himself.

"We have our special drink on our menu...Why don't u try it? the bartender offered RK.I saw her. She was the same girl who told Balraj to give us a room. She was wearing a ruby red short shirt dress. She had dark black hair and dark black eyes, with hair flowing down past her shoulders. Her lips were full , covered with blood red lipstick.Her complexion was fair and her face look exotic, pure, innocent and sexual at the same time. As her eyes travelled up of RK, she licked her lips and bent forward, making her reveal her cleavage prominently.

"What's ur name? RK asked as he looked at her without a blink.

"Meers... she whispered huskily.

"Fine, meers...one for me... RK smiled making her smirk at him. As he began to sip his drink, I decided to call Trish to say hi.

"RK, I will be back in a minute... I said to him.

RK mansion- Dipali's room (night)

Raja's pov started

I entered the room with Dipali's dinner. I made sure that she had her food before going to bed. I looked back at her. She had fever ever since RK-Madhu left for their trip. Doctor Shamsher Malik, the famous psychiatrics informed that it was due to the trauma & medicines' effect. Her face trembled in pain & nightmares. Some of her hair was stuck to her forehead. She cried out again & her eyes clenched shut in fear. I bent forward and opened three buttons of her shirt for the air to pass.

"Blood all over ...Dead bodies...it's stinking...I shouldn't have come...I don't want to die... she mumbled in her state, sweating & groaning in her sleep in pain now & then as tears escaped from the corner of her eyes. She was turning her head from side to side.

"Dipali, wake up...See, I brought soup for u... I said. But she didn't respond. Sweat ran down her neck & along the grooves of her collarbone down to the bulges of her chest. Her abdomen clenched each time she gritted her teeth in agony.

"Paining...please...stop... she gripped the blankets tightly and groaned in pain. Lone tears escaped her eyes.

"I want out...please...let me go... she mumbled.

"U are out...See...u are safe... I tried to comfort her, but I was doubtful whether my words reached her or not.

Suddenly, she woke up with a gasp. The tears ran down her hot cheeks and she was sweating; her hands were clammy and hot. Her lungs ached and heart raced. She looked at her side and saw Rajveer hovering over her in concern.

"Are u okay, Dipali? I asked her.

"I remember everything... she whispered, making me gasp in shock.

Raja's pov ended

Yerba Buena in an unknown place (Night)

RKs pov started

I blinked my eyes but couldn't see anything but darkness. I tried to shake my head to clear the cobwebs, but it was too heavy. Trying to get my bearings I moved my hands around, feeling the area around me. They brushed along a soft bed. I pushed myself in a sitting position, but I fell again, hitting my head to the bedpost.

"Crap!! I muttered. I tried to remember the last events, but everything was vague, probably I was drugged.

As I tried to relax myself, I felt stinging sensation to my neck. I touched it to find something sticky on my fingers.

A door opened nearby, and then closed. I became alert. I slowly stood up, but my balance was awful. I had to steady myself against the wall. I squeezed my eyes shut. I was so wobbly on my feet that faintest breath of wind would have knocked me. Stumbling a couple of steps to the left, I thrust out an arm and pressed a fist against the wall, until I could regain my balance. Then I straightened & staggered to find the switchboard and to my luck, the room lit up. I immediately closed my eyes to adjust my vision while the headache intensified.

There was a mirror on the wall. I somehow managed to get to it. I saw lipstick marks on my neck , chest and cheek. When I looked closer, I found two small holes in my neck surrounded by her lip marks.

"Did she bite me? I wondered.

My head was not working. I needed to get out of here and find Madhu. Hope she is alright.

I staggered my way towards the door and found another room. As I entered, I found meers. She seemed to be waiting for me to wake up.

She walked towards me, swaying her hips. Her ruby red dress reached up to her thighs with slits on the sides, giving perfect view of her flawless skin. The sound of her 6 inch high heels worsened my headache and I immediately pressed my head to stop the pain.

"I was waiting for u to wake up, so that we can continue what we were doing before u passed out... she breathed in my ear, turning and pressing against me, trapping me against the wall.

I tried to reply, "Leave me..., but she covered my lips with hers, and she swallowed my response and my words were pushed aside by her tongue. I tried to remove her from me, but she immediately injected something in my neck, making my eyes roll back, feeling extremely dizzy. Then something happened which I never thought would happen even in my worst dreams.

She pulled back slightly and moved her lips to my neck and began to kiss me. Then moving her head away, she applied some antiseptic cream on one part of her hand and some on my neck to clean the skin. Then she took the help of a squeeze ball to pop up her veins and tied a tourniquet around her arm. Then she lifted her hand and pressed her palms on her hands followed by same inflictions on my neck. I felt a sharp stinging sensation that increased as she pressed her palm on my neck. Then with a swift movement, she removed her hands, making me wince in pain. Blood oozed out of my wounds and also hers. I pressed my fingers on my wounds and then saw her palm. She was wearing a diamond ring with two thick pins attached to the ring. She smiled seductively and then inhaled my blood. With a sharp inhale and then exhale, she opened her eyes and then sank her teeth to my wounds, sucking the warm dark red blood from my neck. I gasped when I felt her lips sucking my wounds hard as she tried to unzip my pants. At the same time, she gripped my hair and forcibly put my mouth on her wounds. Soon I tasted metallic taste of her blood, making me grimace in disgust. I tried to free myself, but my body was too weak because of the effects of drugs. My protests went in vain, and soon she pushed me to bed. I felt her moving away and undressing me as she striped herself. After that, my mind went blank. It was all dark.

RK's pov ended

RK mansion- Dipali's room (Evening)

Dipali's pov started

Raja put a tape recorder in front of me and pressed the record button.

"Who killed those teenage girls? he asked me.

"A Vampire... I said.

"What? Raja asked me again.

"Yes, a vampire killed the teenage girls... I said again.

"Dipali, sorry, no disrespect to u, but vampires aren't real... Raja said to me.

"I am not talking about mythical creatures known as vampires like in the TV shows, movies and fictions...I am talking about humans, in flesh and blood, having Renfield's syndrome...These peoples have a delusional notion that he or she is a vampire and therefore needs blood... And from an erotic attraction to blood and the idea that it conveys certain powers, it develops into fantasies involving sexual excitement... I stopped and looked at him who was staring at me without a blink.

"Sorry, I...what? he looked at me in an unbelievable expression. He gulped hard and then stood up, pacing before me from one corner to the other.

"Raja, we need to inform RK... I said to him. But he was lost in his thoughts and his expression clearly indicated that he was extremely shocked and horrified at the same time.

"So , I...I suppose that u want to tell me the killer who murdered 5 teenagers 13 yrs ago , had sex with them and then drank their blood? he asked me.

"No, I replied.He stared at me in confusion.

"They were drained out of blood when they were still alive... I said.

"So, u want to say that the killer drank their blood while having sex with them? he asked again with a disgusted facial expression.

"That's exactly what I am trying to say... I replied.

"So, what is it...some kind of satanic worshipper? he asked me.

"No. The decoration with the flowers, the cups filled with blood and the salts around the corpses were staged to misguide the police... I said.

"How do u know so much? he asked me as he paced restlessly.

"After RK told me that he had fallen for madhu although he was in relation with me, we decided to break up...I was hurt, angry and completely lost...So, I left behind everything and started travelling...While, I was in a small village in San Francisco, I saw a butcher buying something secretly from a person named Balraj'...I was curious and followed him... I paused.

"What did u see? he asked me with bated breath.

"The truck from where the butcher was unloading meat was actually human corpse... I whispered. His eyes widened and a gasp escaped his mouth. He immediately ran to the washroom and emptied his stomach.

I ran behind him and opened the tap to sprinkle water on his face.

After some time,

"So...So, these bodies...they...they are killed by the same psychopath? he asked me.

"I don't know... I shook my head.

"Only I know that these human corpses were sold as boneless, diced or minced not only in that town but also exported to other countries... I mumbled. He covered his face with his palm and took some time to digest the shocking truth.

"So, why didn't u inform police or contacted RK? he asked me agitatedly.

"I was scared...and RK was out of the question...I never intended to face him again... I sighed.

"Then what happen? he asked me.

"I moved on...I left that town and travelled to other countries and did some odd jobs to survive myself for 2 yrs...Luckily, I got a scholarship to study psychology of criminal minds in a XYZ university...So, I settled down to one place...I was back to my normal life...But I was restless...those images haunted me every night...maybe I was feeling guilty for staying quiet... I whispered as tears welled up in my eyes.

"So what happen? How did the killer find out? he asked me.

"I...I returned to San Francisco during my holidays...I booked a room in Balraj's Paradise Disruption in hope of getting a solid proof to approach the police...Initially, he was reluctant to offer me a room, but then Meers , one of the bartender working in the nightclub , told him to give me a room to stay...I stayed there and worked as a bartender in the club Haven' attached to the hotel, but surprisingly I found no suspicious activity... I said.

"Then one day I woke up from sleep in the middle of the night...I was having difficulty in getting some sleep...So, I climbed downstairs and went outside to get some fresh air... I said again. My mind went back to flashbacks as I remembered those incidents that changed my entire life.

Flashback in

I went outside. The dark night was mysterious and exceptionally quiet. Only the crickets' noise could be heard from a far. I scanned the shadowed side of the street and saw headlights of a series of cars approaching the motel. In a few minutes, an Audi swept quietly to the kerb. The driver alighted. He was a small, thin and elderly man, but he was smart and erect in his posture. He opened the back door of the car from where an extremely good looking man alighted. He had that old soul historic kind of feel...very brooding...I remember that I was enchanted to see him...

I went closer and hid myself behind the bushes to see him clearly. I can't believe I was literally drooling on him.

"Welcome, to the crimson dance party...It's a pleasure to have u, Blood Count... I heard Meers say.

"Pleasure is all mine... I heard him say.

"So how are my blood dolls? he said as he walked towards the bridge a few metres away from the motel.

"Ready for u, Sir... she replied.

I saw him whispering something into the ear of Meers, and then he walked away while she walked in my direction. I panicked immediately, and I was not sure what to do.

I turned around and tried to run inside the motel, but suddenly some of the men blocked my way. I panicked more and tried to turn back and run, but Meers blocked my way.

"Have u ever heard curious cat got killed? she smiled at me.

"I...I was just going to my room... I said with a trembling voice, but she cut me in the middle and said, "Blood Count wants to see u... Then she looked at her men and said, "Take her...

I tried to object, but they were too many. They blindfolded me as I screamed and threw punches at them, but they were too strong to get affected by my hitting.

For next half an hour, I had no idea where they were taking me. Suddenly they stopped and pushed me into a room. I heard a clicking sound, indicating that they were locking the door from outside. As soon as I got free from their hands; I opened my blindfold to look around. The room was dark and in the centre of the room there were two balls of fire burning at me. Panicked at the strange spooky eyes, I searched for the lights and switched it on. As the lights brightened the room, I found that I was in a huge room with all sorts of modern amenities. The fire balls were nothing but the eyes of a dark huge demonic figure, the centre of attraction of the room, whose bright red laser eyes were creating wicked tricks on me when I saw them in the dark.

I was very scared and even cursed myself to act like a foolish to come back in the same place where corpses are sold for money. But I didn't know there was more to what I think.

Hours after hours passed. No one came. It was a hellish torture to stay in that locked room.

I just couldn't stay there and wait for some sociopath to come and kill me. So, I began to search for a way to get out. In doing so, I found several journals where there were several pictures of young girls pasted. Alongside the pictures, there were detailed procedures of sexual activities and blood drinking processes written. The more I read, the more my body turned cold out of fear. I learnt that the person whose room I was locked was suffering from Haematomania, a craving to drink blood. That person likes to drink drugged blood accompanied by sexual pleasures.

I turned the pages and found pictures of more than 700 girls aged between 18 and 28. Among them I recognised a dozen. Out of them, I recognised 5 of the girls whose murders were part of TEENAGE MURDER MYSTERY and was yet unsolved...and the rest 7 girls were missing till now, but I knew they were dead and probably their corpses were sold to the black market.

Suddenly the door flung opened and the guy I was drooling hours before entered.

He walked towards me with his mysterious smile as his eyes travelled from bottom to the top of my body, suddenly making me feel exposed to him. I immediately turned around trying to steady my raised frightened little heart.

"U are beautiful... he said and walked towards me, making me step back immediately in fear.

"I want to know whether ur blood tastes as good as u look... he whispered, sending shivers to my body. With predatory steps, he walked and cornered me.

"Don't worry...I will not hurt u if u answer me like a good girl... he whispered in my ear. I nodded my head vigorously to which he smirked.

"Now tell me, how long u have been spying us? he asked me as he pressed me against the wall, nuzzling his nose to my shoulder.

ADDICTION

PART - 6

Somewhere else (night)

RK's pov started

I blinked my eyes again and found myself naked under the sheets. I panicked immediately and covered myself.

"Did I? my eyes widened.

I tried to get up, but I was handcuffed with the bedpost.

"Do u want some coffee? I heard a voice. I looked ahead to see the same girl drinking coffee.

"Already tired of my blood? I asked her sarcastically. She chuckled in response and then replied, "No. But sometimes I give a rest... Human body isn't well adapted for digesting blood. While small quantities may be harmless, anyone who consumes blood regularly runs a risk of haemochromatosis (iron overdose) or contracting blood-borne diseases if they're sourcing it from other people...So , u can chill for today...

"So how long have u been suffering from Haematomania? I asked her , resting my head against the bed post.

"When I was a 11 , I got into fight with a boy...He was strong , but I was wilder...I lunged at him and bit his Adam's apple drawing blood...That was my first taste of blood... she whispered , licking her lips.

"What are u going to do with me? I asked her changing the topic.

"Well, right now I only have kinky thoughts about u seeing u naked on bed... she winked at me. Suddenly her phone rang and she immediately picked it up.

"Okay, I got it... she replied and disconnected the call. She looked at me. I saw need fill her. She walked towards me, raising her dress to reveal her thighs.

"This would be our last before our goodbyes... she purred. She stopped in front of me and then slowly raised her dress over her head and let it fall. She stood in all her glory and I looked at her large, rounded breasts. I immediately lowered my gaze and saw her fair skin. It called me, but I looked away. She reached my face and turned it to face her. Her eyes were half-closed, yearning for my touch.

"U should put on ur clothes... I said sternly.

"Or we can do it without the drugs this time... she said huskily, leaning forward and then brought my free hand over one of her breasts. I felt her nipples getting hard under my touch. I gazed at her and then began to stroke her nipples. She gasped and then sat on my lap, begging me to go lower. I followed her desire and let my lips run across upper parts of her each breasts. I flicked her nipples alternately with my tongue, sometimes putting them between my lips to pull on them. I ran my hand down her stomach, along her inner thigh. Her breathings quickened and she threw her head back in pleasure. My hands reached the back of her head while my other hand reached her neck.

"Oh, RK! she moaned.

"Goodbye bitch! I whispered and snapped her neck. She dropped on the bed with a thud. Her eyes were motionless.

"Good riddance... I looked at her in disgust. I went closer to her and searched the pocket of her dress with my free hand and found the key to my handcuffs. I immediately opened my cuffs and checked for my clothes in the room. Within 10 minutes, I got ready. As I was about to come out , I stopped and thought to check the room once more to see if there was any clue to identify the psycho killer.

I checked the drawers, but found nothing. Frustrated and desperate to get out before anyone comes in, I hit the table and the photo frame fell on the floor. I immediately knelt down to pick it up, avoiding the glasses and found something pasted to the under surface of the table. I took it out and found a tab. I scroll down the emails and found a bunch of messages from Black Swan to Blood Countess and vice versa. I read some messages:

"Don't let ur eyes off RK...He can be a trouble. Black Swan to Blood Countess (Yesterday 6pm).

"Work is done...Freedom is on our way... Black Swan to Blood Countess (Today 3 am).

"Meet me at 8 pm at our usual place...Don't let any trail behind... Blood Countess to Black Swan (2 hrs before).

"Who are these people? I wondered. I again started searching for more clues and found some financial transactions to three accounts.

During search, incriminating documents indicating the involvements of the coven Black Veil' in illegal activities like human trafficking and impersonation came to light. I also found copies of passports of other foreign women and phone numbers of dozens of foreign women belonging to Central Asian countries. There were many evidences in the form of Whatsapp Messages and SMS messages, all among Blood Count, Black Swan and Blood Countess.

I came out & found myself under deep foundations comprising chambers, cellars and passages. My stomach suddenly growled in hunger accompanied by dizziness. I felt my guts curling in a knot, making me threw up on the floor. I panted unevenly and closed my eyes to rest myself for a moment. Shaking my head, I decided to get out first before getting caught by any other psychopath. I dragged myself in one of the passages and soon enough, I was led briskly to the vaults. On reaching the spot, a trap door sprung open, swallowing me in the darkness. In the course of the next few hours, I found myself in an organised subterranean space. This part had several rooms and the facilities of modern day life styles including electricity.

As I walked, I found a room, full of weapons, guns and bombs. I walked inside and loaded a gun for my protection. Suddenly I heard a ticking sound. I looked back and saw a time bomb which was about to go off within 9 minutes.

"Did that bitch set the clock beforehand? I thought in shock. At that moment, I remembered her words, "This would be our last before our goodbyes... My hairs stood on end thinking that if I had not killed her then she would have left me dying.

I started running randomly without noticing which way I must go. I was terrified and wanted to get out as soon as possible. As I noticed the sun rays peeking from outside a door, I pushed it aside and saw a bright morning welcoming me with its arms open. I immediately ran out, and leapt a few more times to get as far as I could.

Suddenly there was a bright flash of orange light with a deafening sound.

The massive explosion sent out a shock wave of hot air and debris knocked me off my feet. Glass and bricks, metal and fire rained down from above. For a moment I lay flat on my back on the ground, completely dazed. My ears were ringing so loudly that I couldn't hear a thing. Getting up and dusting myself down, I looked at myself, unharmed by god's grace.

"RK? I heard a familiar scream filled with horror. I looked behind and saw Madhu running in my direction. Her face was wet with tears with a mix of fear and shock.

She leapt in my arms and gave me a bone crushing hug.

"I love u, Madhu...I love u so much... I whispered. My eyes widened as I realized that it was for the first time I was confessing about my feelings in these 5 yrs.

"I love u too, RK... came her instant reply.

RK Mansion (Morning)

Raja's pov started

"Do u have any idea how gorgeous u look right now? Raja whispered, pressing Dipali against a wall in the hallway of their mansion. She blushed in crimson red.

"U don't believe me? I asked her, showering feather kisses to her shoulders.

"U are generous enough to tell a destroyed, battered girl gorgeous... she smiled sadly.

"Never talk like that...For me u are the purest person in the world...And I love u...remember that? I told her, before kissing her lips.

"Why are u kissing? Let's go...RK bhai has come from the hospital... a childish cute voice made them to pull away. Dipali giggled and pushed me as she smiled at Trish.

"What a great timing, Trish? I rolled my eyes and went downstairs to welcome RK bro and Madhu , along with Sultan bro , Mohan uncle , Abhay , Malik uncle and Padmini Aunty.

"I miss u , bro... I mumbled, hugging bhai.

"Yeah, u surely look forlorn... he teased, wiping off the lipstick mark from my lips. My face burnt hot in embarrassment and instantly my eyes fell on Dipali who was not less embarrassed than me.

"I am happy for u... RK bhai whispered in my ear.

"Now tell me what happen in my absence? he asked me.

"A lot... I said.

"But the highlight is that Sid Singhania is our killer and when he was being taken to the court, the car met with an accident...No one survived... I informed him.

"No. Tell me from start... he demanded.

RK's pov started

RK's bedroom

"When u were taken , my mind went blank...I didn't know what to do...Police officers were not helping...and those who wanted to help , didn't know what to do following the laws and rules... she whispered as we lay on the bed , covered in a thin blanket.

"I thought...I thought what if something had happened to u...What if the killer had killed u? tears rushed down again from the corner of her eyes.

"There was not a moment when u were not in my thoughts... she mumbled.

"I thought it was my fault in the 1st place...I dragged u in this case...and ... she began to weep.

"And saved many lives...and gave justice to those victims and their families... I smiled at her.

"I am proud of u for being so brave... I added. She gave me a half sad smile.

"How did u find me? I asked her.

"That's a long story...I will tell later... she replied.

"My madhu finally grew up... I said again after a pause, making her pout.

"What do u mean? she looked at me with her fake anger.

"Well if I tell then it will be unhealthy for me... I said innocently making her annoyed. She got up and sat on my hips.

"Madhu, that's a very dangerous position for us... I said, breathing heavily as all her right parts were aligned, touching me where I wanted them badly, turning me on.

"Then what will u do if I do this? she purred and unwrapped the blanket from her naked glory and then leaned forward to kiss me. Her globes touched me, sliding sensually across my chest. Her white small teeth gave a sharp love bite on my neck and then dragged her mouth in a kiss so sensual, so erotic that all my bitter memories of touching that bitch washed away from my mind.

"Is it ur new lip gloss? I asked her.

"Yes. I love it's cherry flavour...The last one I bought was so yuck that I never touched it again... she pouted.

"U didn't use it because u didn't like the taste... I mumbled. I immediately flipped her over and then hurried out of the room.

"RK, u dog! U always do this! I heard her yelling from behind.

Studyroom

"Bro, u called? Raja said as he entered.

"Do u remember when u used to give my proxy to Madhu when she demanded to take me to her weird tea parties? I asked him.

"Yes. Those were my horrifying days...U always took advantage of our looking alike situation... he said with annoyance.

"U have to again give my proxy until I return for my marriage with madhu... I said patting his shoulders.

"What? he asked me with his terrifying voice.

"And no one must know...Not even madhu and Dipali... I said and left the room, leaving him frozen in his place.

Just as I told, I left our mansion the next day as Raja. My excuse was that I was going to see a friend who needed advice regarding a case and it was unavoidable. Before going I promised the real Raja i.e. fake RK that I would return before the marriage.

On the marriage day

Malik Mansion

Madhu's pov started

I looked at myself, wearing a white gown, decorated with shimmering stones on the upper half. I always wanted a Christian marriage for myself. And today all my dreams to get married to the man of my dreams would come true.

I took a breath and applied kohl to my eyes. I thought of my parents and longed for their comforting presence.

I pulled in a deep breath, trying in vain control my fluttering stomach and pounding heart. I hardly heard the jingle of the tiny bells strapped to my ankles that a gentle tap on my bedroom door brought me back.

"It's time for u to come down, Madhu... Padmini Aunty said, followed by Trish's excited face.

"Let me take u outside...Malik uncle is waiting for u to walk u the aisle... she said excitedly.

I picked up my bouquet of red roses, carefully while aunty adjusted the veil over my face.

Slowly and regally we descended the stairs.

RK stood in the hall, wearing his wedding suit. His eyes were blank.

"Was something wrong with him? I wondered. There was such an odd expression in his eyes. He continued to stare at me blankly.

"RK? I called him hesitantly. He jumped visibly as if he woke up from a nightmare.

"Oh, madhu! Forgive me...I was...Never mind... he said as he bit his lower lips nervously. This habit was familiar to me. It was...It was Raja's habit when he is very nervous.

"Raja? I gasped in shock. He looked at me sharply and then in the next moment his face turned red hot.

"What, Raja? my uncle asked in shock. Others too surrounded us.

"What is this Raja? Sultan bhai yelled at him. My eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"Had he left me in the altar? I thought. Tears rolled down my cheeks.

"It's not Raja's fault, bro... I heard a voice. Turning back, I saw the crowds dispersed and RK standing in the middle accompanied by police officers behind him.

Madhu's pov ended

RK's pov started

"What's going on, RK? Is this a joke? Malik uncle was furious.

"Sorry uncle, but I had no choice. I had to do this... I replied. I walked towards Raja and apologised.

"I am not doing it again in my whole life... Raja shook his head in response as he loosened his tie and removed his coat. I shook my head and turned towards Dipali.

"Dipali, Sid Singhania , the infamous TEENAGE MURDERER and Blood Count of Black Veil was not the one who ran the operation of human trafficking and prostitution... I said.

"What? What are u saying? He is not the mastermind of the operations? she asked in shock.

"No. There were two more posts one had the same power as Blood Count, known as Blood Countess in that world and the other one was the mastermind Black Swan... I replied.

"What are u saying? Raja gasped in shock while Dipali and Madhu were pale as ghost.

"Yes. Blood count and Countess were the faces to deal with the operations, but the real orders used to come from Black Swan... I said again.

"RK, what if the real mastermind to these operations comes after me? Dipali's eyes filled with tears.

"Don't worry...Police teams were posted at each entrance of this mansion...No one can leave or enter without being noticed... I said.

"But I need ur help to get them behind bars... I added.

"Anything...tell me? she asked me.

"Dipali, tell me what happen after he brought u to Hotel Blue moon? I asked her.

"But I told everything I know to Raja...He even recorded them... she said.

"Last time u told that Sid never allowed anyone to meet u, not even his men...He was particular about keeping u isolated from anyone in the last 5 yrs... I said.

"Yes. She nodded her head.

"And he never drank ur blood? I asked her.

"No. He did once when he forced me in San Francisco, our first meeting... she said.

"Why? I asked her.

"He told me that he didn't like the taste of my blood...too less metallic for his taste... she said, closing her eyes as if in pain.

"So u are sure no one drank blood from u after coming to India? I asked her again.

"Yes. Yes. Why are u asking me the same question? she yelled in frustration as tears rolled down her eyes.

"If no one drank ur blood, then how come fresh marks of teeth small holes came to ur neck while u were found? I asked making her look at me in confusion.

I took out her photos from the crime scene which was taken when she was found.

"These are the photos of u, clearly indicating the marks on ur neck, identical to the ones in TEENAGE MURDER CASE... I said.

"When he only had sex with u for the last 5 yrs and avoided drinking ur blood and also allowed no one to meet u, then how could these fresh marks came to ur neck? I asked her, making her go stiff.

"It happened because u made it by urself... I said again.

"What nonsense? Why will I do that? she said agitatedly.

"Because the MASTERMIND OF BLACK VEIL IS U, not him... I replied.

"U ARE BLACK SWAN... I added.

"No. I was attacked, assaulted years after years...I am the victim here...U can ask ur brother, Sultan... she said. Her face turned red in anger.

"I confirmed...U were not raped...U were beaten and u had wild rough sex, that are very common in BDSM and most of the times it's very hard to differentiate ...One difference is that in BDSM, it's done with mutual consent, but in rape, it is forced...As I was not sure at first, so I went to ur village and met ur mother in Tihaar jail and ur neighbours in Yerba Buena and found out many information regarding ur childhood and teenage life... I said. Her face was stone hard and eyes were cold like a snake.

"Ur mother had a hard time to survive with two of u u and ur sister Sweety...So , ur mother relocated in San Francisco when u were 12 and ur sister was 8...She devised a scam which she thought was brilliant and would solve all her monetary problems. She proclaimed herself as prophet and high priestess of the "powerful and exiled Aztec goddess." She told the villagers that the Aztec goddess, in return for worship and tribute, would give them treasures hidden in the caves of the mountains surrounding the village...Most of the inhabitants of Yerba Buena, prisoners of ignorance and misery, believed this nonsense. Thus she founded a relatively prosperous sect Black Veil with other criminals, especially psychopaths...Adherents demanded economic and sexual taxes (both women and men)...Gradually she became from simple thieves to cheats and sexual slaveholders, organizing orgies in which they used narcotics... I said and saw her turning pale.

"The coven continued running like that with no problem for a while, after which the believers began to grow impatient at not seeing the promises fulfilled. So she devised a plan...During a ritual, she presented,using a cheap magic trick and a smoke screen, ur sister was presented as the reincarnation of a goddess...Ur sister , who had Haematomania , began to drink blood of human sacrifices...U , who was still not corrupted , ran to the nearby forest and hid urself for days...Then one day , u took the help of a tourist and came back India...U were a good kid , but a very timid one...Bullies made a lifetime mark of fear on u...U were sent to asylum twice and released due to over population in those centres...U were put into an orphanage in Mumbai where u were frequently treated sadistically. U began to enjoy the physical pain that the beatings brought... U were unmercifully whipped and slowly u began to change. U used to see boys doing many things they should not have done." I paused.

"But u were amazing in studies...One of my school teacher was impressed by u and she helped u to get admission in our school where I first met u, became friends and then fell for each other...We dated 7 yrs...But I...I realized that I love u as my friend, not as my lover...And then I fell for Madhu...I decided to tell u about my feelings for u and for madhu...We broke up and suddenly u left me without saying anything... I sighed. My heart ached in guilt for letting her go and ruin herself.

"Ur story to us was same, with some differences... I said again.

"U travelled and found a scholarship in a XYZ university...U applied for a fellowship where ur topic was What makes a person tick to become one of the deadliest criminals?...U started researching and came back to San Francisco, thinking to work from a place which changed ur life...Least did u know that it would again change ur life...U found the Black veil was no longer a small sect...It had become one of the biggest coven for illicit businesses...U met Sweety or I should say Meers or Blood Countess in ur world...She was no longer a kid now...Her beauty was enchanting for those who met her...She wanted u by her sides , but u denied to be a part...But unfortunately u saw one of their illegal export of human corpses...U became scared and tried to escape , but Sweety caught u and handed u over to Sid...He abused u , tortured u and with time corrupted every goodness that remained in u...Ur pleasure for pain returned and slowly u suffocated and finally killed the Dipali I knew ...U became Black Swan, the mastermind of the whole operations... I finished and looked at her, who was smirking at me.
