Mahira was lost in thoughts for quite sometime after she finished her call with Ana, she knew that Tazz wasn’t so petty that he would do something so cheap, she remembered he had told her “you are mine, mine to hurt and mine to cure,” so she finally concluded that it wasn’t Tazz, yes, but he did have some kind of a relationship with Sonia, was it that of being just casual f*ck buddies or true lovers, that she didn’t want to think or get into, she only had to safeguard Tama’s future and with the recent increase in incidents happening around her with her at the core, she realised that something was not right.
She decided that she would either leave this country or shift out of this apartment and move to another side of the city, but then everything here was settled. She picked up her phone and called a few realty agents to look for a new apartment, at least she could begin with sh
“Hello Mahira, we meet again,” he leered at her.Mahira stood frozen to ground as she looked into the ugly eyes of Navin, her mind froze for a while, then suddenly got flooded when the ice melted with several questions ‘What the hell is he doing here?, how did Sonia know him?, he doesn’t even have any qualifications to get a job here, or anywhere for that matter, then how?’ her mind got jumbled up suddenly, she couldn’t react nor speak., but at this moment there was something more that greatly disturbed her, there was something she saw in his eyes, something she couldn’t understand, something more than anger, more than his thirst for revenge, something more tha..... LUST, it was lust. Mahira was shocked at this revelation, Navin didn’t look like that irritating brother he was who only used and manipulated his sister
A big smile spread across her face as she looked at Harry, “Harry !,” she exclaimed happily“Small world ha!, Why is it that we keep meeting at lobby’s of either hotels or offices, I’m sure with planning we could meet at more friendly places” said Harry with a smile as he looked at her from top to toe, admiration shining clear in his eyes as he remembered her bravery from the other day“Yeah! I guess its because you don’t find time to join our gang enough so we meet like this,” she laughed, “By the way, what are you doing here?” she asked, then something striked her, “Oh My God, you are Harry Primera, as in the Ceo of Prime Time??, Gosh!” she was surprised, “ No wonder when Ana introduced you to me the first time I felt your name was familiar, Oh G
Once they were done with their coffee, it was almost time to go home, so Mahira thought she could leave from down as her workstation was locked and she didn’t have anything to do up, Julie collected her bag and they stepped out of the tower, no sooner had Mahira crossed the road to go to the bus stop, her phone buzzed“Miss Mahira, I see that you’re not at your work station,” Navin spoke in an irritating toneMahira felt her mouth suddenly filled with stones, she couldn’t bring herself to open it to reply, that’s how much disgusted she felt, but she had to..“I am out for work,”“Work, hmmm, what kind of work Miss Mahira, you are still in office hours and you have already started your other business,”
When Mahira entered the room booked by Navin for the so called Official dinner party, she felt repulsed with the amount of smoke and liquor smell that hit her nostrils. Her doubts were confirmed that this was just another ploy of Sonia and Navin to play some serious mischief with her.“Sweetheart, you’re here finally, you are really becoming a bad girl, not coming on time,” Navin leered at her as he came closer, grabbed her arm and pulled her into the room, when Mahira looked around, she only saw weird looking disgusting men , all drunk, some still getting drunk, the music was loud, there was a long table in the centre and some strippers were already dancing atop the table.“What the hell is all this Navin? are you trying to mess with me? Mahira yelled at him, the music was too loud, she forcefully released her arm from his
Mahira pulled Mak to another corner while Steven waited by the door"What's all this?, how do you know this guy Steven?" she asked inquisitivelyMak looked at her and pretended to straigten his collar and show some style, meaning that he was no Tom Dick or Harry that she and Ana treated him like, he rolled his eyes looking around'Slap', Mahira slapped him hard on his back, "Are you gonna speak or are you gonna speak, your neck will get stuck if you continue to look around like a headless chicken," she whispered"See, that's your problem, you girls, both you and Ana, you both don't treat me like an adult, but you see now, I also know powerful people like Steven Mars," he whined as well as boasted"Who is he, to me he looks like some local gang leade
She just kept looking at him, too shocked to react, 'wasn't he supposed to return a month later?' she thought, as if reading her mind he sneered"I decided to surprise you, just like you keep amazing me with your disappearing acts, I wanted to stupefy you with my re-appearing act, a month was too long a wait for me, though I know I may have ruined your plans.. right?" he asked, looking at her with one raised eyebrowShe looked away, trying to evade his eyes, he pushed her face toward him with his hand gently, pinching her chin with his thumb and index finger, he pushed her face upwards, she looked down, not wanting to meet his gaze as he continued to inch closer to her face, she blushed as his warm breath feathered on her cheek, she realised that she was wrong in doing what she did, the way she left the island and by not trusting Tazz... Her Tazz..
Thankfully for Mahira she was into dance and fitness, so climbing 29 floors back up sounded like no big deal, she filled the coffee in a cup with saucer as she had no other option, placing the saucer over the cup, she covered the coffee to keep it warm, what she wasn’t aware of was the fact that she was in office wear, the coral colored shirt with black skirt that fitted well around her hips and knees felt like 500 kg of armour suit the moment she began the climb, not to mention the heels that felt like sand bags tied to her ankles, with that said, climbing 29 floors did seem to her like a mountainous task at the moment despite her fitness level. It took her about 18-20 minutes to climb and reach upto 33rd floor, by the time she entered his cabin, she was soaked in sweat, yet she hurried to place the coffee cup on his table. Tazz looked at her and the disheveled state that she was in, he did not bother how
Realising what he wanted to know, "Yes, Miss Mahira was there too," he concluded...Unfortunately for Manoj right now, he wasn't there, he didn't know complete facts, "Sir, I don't know how long she was there but she did go to the party with him, also that guy Navin was arrested from the party and the news is everywhere,"Tazz stared at Manoj for a few minutes, "where were you when all this happened?"Manoj literally cowered, "I.. I was sent to collect some stuff by Miss Sonia," he looked down"PHAT', Tazz slapped hard on the table, "Looks like its time for me to remind you who you owe your duty to, whom your loyalties belong to,""Sir, I...,""When was he released from the prison, were you ab
