CHAPTER-2.
Neither thunder nor lightning,nor the sunlight matter-
When you stand in front of him,your glass of protection shatter..
And when he breathes fire,and yet terror freezes you to ice-
Be aware that you cannot fool him,NOTHING escapes THE PREDATOR'S EYES..
Shlok walked closer to her,water dripping down his face to hers,as the storm went stronger than ever..
He could see her shiver,and a warmth of satisfaction settled in him,seeing her shiver in fear..
He liked her fear..Why won't he?When he survived on it?
He slowly raised his hand,and strangely she did not blink,again taking him aback..That was when he noticed her hand in her purse,as he could make out a small light..
"Calling someone?"He asked softly,making her jump in surprise,and the phone fell to the ground shattered to pieces.
Her gasp of surprise did not escape his notice,nor did her leaning backwards,in fear..
Shlok got closer to her,and with satisfaction watched her close her eyes in fear.
A smile teased the corner of his full lips,as thunder blared louder,and slowly he raised his hands towards her to do what he had intended to do in the first place.
Astha closed her eyes,her heart beating like anything,as she felt him coming closer..
She knew she should be calling for help,but how could she when He was looming over her like this,and also her only means of contact with the world lay shattered to pieces at her feet..
She could feel his hands coming nearer.Even with her eyes closed tight shut she could tell.Though she did not know how..
And just before his hands were about to touch her body,she opened her eyes ready to scream for help,even if no one heard..
The sound never escaped her lips,as to her shock and surprise she noticed him not touching her like she expected..But he was gently draping her dupatta round her body..
A shudder passed through her body,as his hand brushed at her arm..Slightly but clearly unintentionally this time..
And then to add to her surprise,he moved away and picked up the umbrella and offered it to her..
A glowing softness bloomed up in her heart at the act..
He was so noble and she thought him to be..
With shaky hands she took the umbrella,giving him a wavering grateful smile..
He walked under the umbrella,with her,nearly pushing her out with his huge physique,and took out his expensive blackberry from his pocket.
Astha frowned in confusion not able to understand what was about until he offered it to her..
Her eyes widened in surprise..
Was he giving her his mobile too?!!
"Call whoever you want to,ask them to pick you up right now.It's not safe here in this stormy night.Hurry!"His cold clipped voice shattered her dreamy rose colored glasses..
Heaving a sigh she took the phone from him,and made the call she was supposed to do..Her friend was supposed to pick her up from here,where she had come to give an interview.
"Hello?Yes where are you..?Yes I am Astha..Yes..Okay hurry I'm waiting..No..It's okay I..I have an umbrella.."She had done talking when instantly he took the phone from her and put in an inside pocket of his coat.
She was about to hold the umbrella which he was holding while she talked on the phone,when he raised his eyebrows questioningly at her,and her hand fell down back to her sides..
"The umbrella was to protect MY BLACKBERRY from the rain..Not for you..You are.."His eyes meaningfully studied her from head to toe,again lingering for a few seconds longer at her bosom,so that Astha again tried to cover herself up.."Alreay WET.."He put such an emphasize on the word wet,that she shivered at the double implication of the word.
It was while he suddenly turned and strode off with the umbrella leaving her alone and dripping wet in the thunder storm,that Astha finally realised the insult behind his words..
Anger took over her,as she realised what a fool she had been in misjudging him as a noble and polite man..!A scoundrel was what he was more like!She thought angrily..
And she applauded herself mentally for coming to that conclusion,as she watched him driving out of the parking lot in a huge black SUV,and splash water at her as he passed by..
"The bas***d!"She seethed out through clenched teeth,as she watched the tail lights of the car disappear down the road.
He could have easily offered her a ride,she thought fumingly as she waited for her friend to pick her up..
And I forgot about her after that..
The saying out of sight,out of mind,was made a genius I think..
She was another memory among my many other useless ones..
What did one traditional petite,small and too curvaceous girl for my taste,matter to me..?
I was The SHLOK AGNIHOTRI..
I had my choice among the sexiest and tallest girls of Mumbai..And even from other cities of India or the world, if I just bend a finger..
And everytime,I did bend it,they come crawling to please me..
WOMEN..They are sick!All that matters to them is money..Give them that and they will do anything for you..
And then I had another chance meeting with her..
And this one also dramatic like the last one..
Drama and my new prey seemed to be closely connected..Or was it me,who seemed to be finding too much in all of it..?
Anyways, so I had another chance meeting with HER the VERY NEXT DAY..
