When I was waiting for the 3rd part it struck me hard as of how Parvati can forgive him even after all this...Whatever kind of crime it is, one has no right to punish anyone like this without a solid evidence...I am astounded about how strong Parvati is and how she endures this torture!
Kudos napster!!

uRGENT!
Napster, if you have not already, read Ian Flemings From Russia With Love. Yes, its about that other Jallad, his name is Bond, James Bond.

There are two interedting KGB characters in this book. One is a female interrogator, and the other is a government hired, handpicked, psychologically profiled psychopath.

Wonderful update as usual. This was definitely not an easy read as parvati's pain was far too much to ignore. Unknowingly i had questioned the country's judicial system as well which perhaps approves of this kind of torture inflicted upon prisoners. I am in love with your writing . But you seem to exceptionally fond of cliffhanger i guess! So i know you will consider this as pouting and trust me i am doing this intentionally as well. But just couldn't help it
'update'

I am not ashamed to admit I am a feminist AND a huge Ian Fleming fan, but I have not read from Russia with Love. But the concept of the government hired handpicked psychopaths is so much a part of modern day warfare, I wanted to incorporate this--if you've read even one exposure on Abu Ghairab or the un-redacted papers from Guantanamo, you will see such psychopathy, it will scar you for life! I actually based the concept of Jasheem Khan from an amalgamation of those images---these are not crazy slobbering villains of TV that you know are evil right away--these are regular men and women, who hold down jobs and even have a social life and a family. They are full blown psychopaths who just happen to also have an outlet for their natural inherent psychosis in their jobs where they torture, and inflict pain for a living. Its fascinating reading, especially from the very pragmatic, Army viewpoint of "use what you have."


I will be posting part 3 soon--polishing up on the Hindi, and some scenes that are okay, but that I keep reworking. I'm giving myself a few hours, and then in whatever version it is in, Im going to say "hell with it''and then it's going up!


I've been getting very helpful feedback on the dialogue I use--thank you all for that. People, advance warning, and apologies for my Hindi--I'm Bengali, and Hindi isn't my first second or even third language--its basically a hodge-podge of TV, 80s movies and bad Doordarshan--so please excuse the bad grammar and my inability to differentiate between male/female tenses! Please feel free to PM me corrections, if you are bothered by any passage/line, and I will happily update! But in general, I hope you guys aren't offended by the bad Hindi--unintentional, I swear!

I am kinda upset you left it where you did. I can take 6 k words EASILY. I will comment again after the final part. Give and take.

P. S I love you, I LOVED the part. But what happens to Paro yaaa? What happens? When will Rudra stop that real wala Jallad? It was so bad to read that about Paro!


Yaar,

its not you, or me--its India Forums! Everytime I try to post anything beyond, say, 4000 words, the posting page freezes on me. I don't know if I'm limited or a luddite or something Even if it does go through after umpteen tries and deletes, it totally messes up the font and paragraphing. I have to correct each line manually, and even that is touch and go--it drives me crazy. So I give myself a word limit that lets me post easily. The problem is that I write and write and write, and I cannot DO smaller stories since I'm doing several different scenes per update--hence the separate Parts.

Sorry my dear--not a reflection on the words you'll absorb--or the pages I'm willing to write to please you all! But hey..keeps you wanting more of the monster, huh? Never a bad thing, my love...never a bad thing...😉

As someone who knows my love for cliffhangers (HappilyLost, a lovely newbie, just called me out on it, like a total sweetheart--so gentle she was, too, it made me giggle--she has clearly never followed along with "Perfection" for Arnav/Khushi where I did it for YEARS! hehe) but you know me, so you know it feeds into my own particular psychosis--leaving the story at a point that makes you want to see what happens next!

thoda aur intezar---almost done with Part 3.

@bold... Absolutely. Just that Fleming was ex MI6, and he created this character all those years ago. His portrayal though, was that of a loner, with no attachments... I wonder if it was to appease his readers or if covert ops preferred it that way at the time! Wars are being fought in completely different cultures now... For these psychopaths to have families is ten times more evil sounding!

Napster your stories have dimensions that no one even comes close to having! So yeah, with the Hindi... The message is conveyed, and the English translations help. Its really wonderful how you have kept the conversations in character... Paro is not speaking like some yuppie chick... Even translated.

*clears throat nervously* update?

Res for a lengthy comment. I need time to think of something appropriate to reflect this story. My brain is already hurting thinking about what to write. How do you manage to write content this intense? I would have given myself a migraine coming up with this. ⭐️
