Forbidden Fire (A devil's tale)
Copyright Aniee.H
Part 9
Maan Singh Khurana was still awake and alone, in his room. He was sitting at his usual place. His eyes were fixed at the fire burning in the fireplace. Slowly, he placed the glass on his lips, and took a sip of his drink. But his eyes were fixed on the fire and his mind was engrossed in her.
"Geet," He said her name and the grip on the glass grew stronger, until his knuckles turned white and then the glass broke, injuring his hand. But he didn't care about the blood that sprouted from his hand. He didn't even flinch. He kept on sitting in the same position, with his eyes fixed on the fire.
"I had always thought that I hate you, more than anything. But I was wrong because as strongly as I hate you, my love is also there to counter that hate. I hate you and I love you too." A wicked smile spread across his handsome face.
"Geet, this one word flares a toxic hatred inside me." He said as the hatred in him grew more potent and that smile vanished from his face.
"Geet, and this very word also awakens love inside me."
"How is it possible? How the hell is that possible?" He roared as he banged his injured hand on the glass table, shattering the glass into numerous pieces.
"And the irony is that I don't know which one is stronger, my hatred for you or my love for you. But in either case, I have lose and I hate you for that. You defeated Maan Singh Khurana and I love you for that also. Dammit, what have you done? Twelve years of suffering and still I am here, even more bruised, and even more agonized."
I thought that I will find my peace once you are in front of me, all scared and defeated. But I was wrong. I am more tormented from the moment I saw that fear.
"I am seeking solace in the very same thing that makes me suffer." He said and closed his eyes only to be tortured by her eyes, once again, all night.
your eyes are my window to your soul
i see fear, i see hatred, i see helplessness
i had lived all these years just to experience the despair that i now see in your eyes
you do put up a brave face and fight
it ignites something in me
sparks fly
just like the way it did twelve years back
I'll make sure you burn with me this time
I'll make sure to be a devil
a devil that loves to see fear in those hazel eyes of yours
a devil that has vowed to burn you
a devil that'll burn with you
a devil that'll hate you
a devil that'll love you unconditionally irrevocably madly ever forever forever
you can't escape
you can't run
and if you do so I'll make you come to me
as I'm the inescapable devil

Info Technology was one of a growing IT companies that was a joint venture of Brij and Karan. Geet was the key person since she was genius in software development and information technology solutions. She had recently joined the company, despite many lucrative offers.
"Geet relax, he will be fine."
Meera said as they walked inside the emergency. Meera was worried to see Geet's condition. Naina had gone to her mother's place with Brij. Rohan, their son had who was 7 years old had stayed back due to his exams. Geet got a call from the school when Rohan fell from the stairs and they rushed him to the hospital. Geet could feel the darkness in front of her eyes, by just imagining Rohan's condition. How the hell was the going to gather the courage to see him like that.
"How is he?" Geet asked in a broken voice as she saw Rohan lying on the bed, with bandages on his head.
"He had a head injury. We have stitched him. There is no major problem but he has lost a lot of blood, we need to give him blood. Bu the problem is his blood group is AB negative and it is a very rare blood type. Unfortunately, we are unable to find it in our blood bank. We are trying from other sources, you also try from all the possible resources. We need it as soon as possible or anything can happen." Dr told her and could feel like her world was going to end right there.
"Nothing will happen to him. I will arrange it." Geet said resolutely, wiping her tears.
"Meera you stay here. Veer jee would arrive in few hours. But we have to arrange the blood before he comes. Call all the friends and am going to different blood banks." Geet said before making her way out.
She called all her friends but couldn't succeed. Her last option was the MK hospital that was said to have the biggest blood bank. She was walking lifelessly when she stumbled and was about to fall when someone gripped her.
"You are eager to meet me, even before two days, so following me here." Maan said, still gripping her waist. Geet glanced around and found so many people staring at them. Embarrassed, she straightened herself.
"I am following you here? You must have come here to abduct me or even harass me. I don't have time, even to think about you. Because my nephew needs blood and AB negative is nowhere to be found. Dammit, I have bigger worries to think about." She said, and each of her word didn't reflect anger but only pain. Her voice was low and painful. Maan saw the same fear in her eyes, a fear of losing someone. But this fear belonged to him and only him.
Geet lowered her eyes when she saw rage emitting from Maan. Once again her words had enraged him but this time she was hardly in her senses to think about anything.
Will he take me forcefully with him? What will he do now?
"You will have to think about me and only me." He said angrily as he jerked her away.
Geet was dumbfounded when she saw him walking arrogantly, away from her.
"By the way, I own this place." He said, without turning towards her. As usual, he looked lethal, dangerous, and ready to attack. She glanced around and found that everyone, except his guards had left the place. He didn't need to say anything. Others tried their best to stay away from him.
"And by the way, AB negative happens to be my blood group as well." Maan smirked before walking from that place.
Why every time, my fate brings him in front of me. Why it always has to be him. She cursed her fate as she ran to stop him. But he was again circled by his body guards and was pacing away from her.
"Stop," Geet yelled as she ran after him. But he didn't stop and kept on walking.
"You can't meet him without an appointment. You can get the appointment from the office." She was stopped by Adi.
Geet sat in the car and rushed to his office. Geet reached his office but then she was told that he had already left for his home. She drove like a maniac towards his home. She was breathless and her senses were half paralyzed due to the incident. The time passed and so did her worry increased and so did her heart lurched and her mind ceased to work.
She couldn't think that he was a devil, neither could she think about the bet that he had placed that she would come to him within two days. All she remembered was Rohan and his life. She would have died in his place, if possible. She would have done anything, anything for him, even if it meant going to the person, she despised more.
Geet was guided by one of the servants to his room. He was sitting totally relaxed, and a glass full of liquor was lying on the table. Closing the distance between them, Geet ran towards him and held his arm.
"I need you right now. Please come with me. You need to give blood to Rohan." She panicked as she wanted Rohan to be safe as soon as possible. Maan glanced at her hand, and then at her.
"Please," She said in a choked voice.
"You are asking for Maan Singh Khurana's blood." He chuckled and Geet's loosened her grip on his arm. Girls had been after his money but this was the first girl whose demand was as unique as she was herself.
For once he wished that this worry would have been for him, only him. For once he thought how it would have felt if she would also have loved him. Again the conflicting emotions, where on one side he wanted her fear for him and at the same time he wanted her to love him too.
"You wouldn't have come here, if it was not for your own benefit." He spat and she was confused.
What does he want? All things he had done till now, will only make a person hate him. How can he want me to come to him, on my own accord, when I hate him so much.
"But," She pleaded again but he didn't budge.
"I don't do anything until I get some benefit from it. And here I see no benefit at all." He said as he raised his hand to touch her lips.
"Please," she said and her breath fell on his fingers.
"I will do anything you say. But please first come with me." Geet said urgently and the word anything got his attention.
"I don't give credits." He said as his finger moved down, towards her neck.
"First, do as I say then I shall go with you." Maan said as his hand went lower.
"What do you want?" She asked but her mind couldn't work on what he may demand. All she cared about was Rohan right now.
"I want to make love to you, right now, right here." He said dangerously, stressing each and every word, while his finger touched the place right above her heart.
