Chapter - 6

The stench of the blood filled the vast room . The multiple dead bodies laying around added to the eerieness of the environment. The white walls were stained with blood splatters. The once pristine clean white room now was filled with crimson liquid staining every corner . Some layed dead while some were slowly loosing their lives .

It was a chilling scene that could horrify even the strongest of strongest man . But the same couldn't be applicable to Abhiraj who sat in a chair like a king on his throne amidst the dead bodies. He showed no emotions but the knives in his right hand , from which blood was dripping told a different story .

Infront of Abhiraj was a man in his 40s kneeling on the ground with his hand tied behind his back . He was crying, begging Abhiraj to spare him and show some mercy . But Abhiraj has never been merciful to anyone. And with traitors, never .

" You should have thought about the consequences before betraying me , Jaswant Chowdhury. Now prepare yourself to hii to king of death for me "

Abhiraj raised his knife and with a clean swipe he sliced off Jaswant's throat. The action was swift and clean . Abhiraj's guards were stunned. Jaswant's now lifeless body fell forward, at the foot of Abhiraj. His blood stained Abhiraj's black leather boots.

Abhiraj couldn't help but scrunch his nose in disgust. He kicked away Jaswant's body . He let go off the blood stained knife , leading it to fall on the white marbled floor with a clank . The sound echeod throughout the silent room .

Abhiraj took off the black leather gloves before throwing them somewhere. Then raised his hand in the air .His guard nearby quickly handed him wet tissue papers. Working with their boss for ages , Abhiraj Singh Rathore, they had been long accustomed to their boss's obsession with cleanliness. He was a clean freak . He abhored someone touching him or being touchy with him .

Everytime he kills someone, he will have his gloves on. It doesn't matter how much expensive those gloves were , they are going to be thrown away after each killing. Like a habit, he will use wet tissue papers to wipe off his hand near and clean . But the tale doesn't end there . Abhiraj takes a mandatory bath after throwing away the clothes and shoes, he had on during committing murder.

" Burn this mansion down . Make sure no evidence is left behind" Abhiraj instructed strictly.

" Yes, Boss! " The guards felt shiver passed down their spines seeing their boss's darkened expression. They were convinced that their boss was definitely in his worst mood.

Abhiraj walked out of the mansion, feeling anger engulfing him . Recently his mood has been erratic. He has been unable to concentrate on anything. His mind has been plagued by Myra , her touch , her smell , her sparkling eyes, her soft yet melodious voice. He wanted to meet her . Hold her hand once again. May progress to hugging her. And it wasn't help when his inner demons keep screaming to meet her . It has been four days since he last interacted with her . He also wished to meet her , interract with her .But on what basis or excuse can be meet her ?

He can't just go abruptly to her and interact with her . What if she thinks he has gone mad or insane? He didn't wish to create bad or negative impression infront of her . He wanted to maintain his image in her eyes until it has been proved that she wasn't his doll .

But if she happens to be his doll , then there will be nothing that could stop him from be with her . He will kill everyone who comes between him and her .

Doll wait for me . I will unveil your identity and make you mine forever. I won't hesitate to chain you up if that is what needed to be done to make you mine .

Once again all the Rathore siblings were hurdled in Ruhi's room . And again the room was thick with tension. But this time it wasn't Ruhi who was worried or was stressed rather it was Arohi, who seemed to be on the verge of bursting into tears.

Arohi has a boyfriend who happens to be the student body president of his university. He is looking for investments . On one occasion he brought this matter infront of Arohi about how he needed funds by the time of commencement of the annual day ceremony of their university. Arohi pledged to bring investment thinking she will convince her brother, Abhiraj to make investment.

But who would have thought that , her brother will be in his bad mood for last four days. And by tomorrow she needed to provide investment to her boyfriend since the annual day ceremony is tomorrow itself.

Not knowing what to do she sought out for opinion, advices and suggestions from her siblings.

" Guys what should I do ? " Arohi asked nervously.

" 10 Crore¹ rupees² is not a small amount, Arohi. None of us can provide that . You have to talk to Abhiraj bhai³ , regarding this ." Laksh suggested after hearing out about Arohi 's problem.

" I CAN'T! Haven't you seen how angry he seems this past few days ? " Arohi panicked at the thought of facing her angry brother, Abhiraj.

" Did we ask you to make the promise of investment of a such a huge amount to your boyfriend without consulting Abhiraj bhai? No, right ! So why are you annoying us with your whining and yelling " Veer snapped finally being unable to control his anger . For the past few days , he has been in Rathore's Mansion, he always seems to fall into one problem or the other. It has messed up his brain.

" Veer calm down. Don't loose your calm .Control yourself." Trisha scolded him.

Ruhi leaning against the wall beside the bed , rolled her eyes observing them . She has also been fed up with Arohi's drama and constant meetings held by Rathore siblings.

" Arohi dii⁴ , there is only one solution" Ruhi finally decided to speak up .

" What is it ? " Everyone asked in curiosity.

" You have to talk about this with Abhiraj bhai. He is the one who makes all the financial decisions of Rathore Group as well as Rathore family . You can't do fraud with him . You know the consequences of traitors, betrayers, enemy and fraudsters, right ? " Ruhi said .

Everyone gulped. Yes , they were aware because they have seen it with their own eyes . Everyone involuntarily shivered remembering those nerve wrecking scenes .

" Fine! I will talk to brother...but can someone come with me to talk to brother " Arohi asked. Everyone quickly backed away while looking everywhere but at Arohi.

" Guys please " Arohi whined.

" You are on your own on this , Arohi " Trisha said raising her hands .

Arohi's eyes then landed at her own sister, Ruhi who was busy typing something on her phone .

" Ruhi can you please come along with me to talk to br— "

" NO!" Ruhi was blunt and fast to refuse Arohi without even looking up from her phone, even before Arohi could complete her sentence.

" You didn't tag along with me to apologise to Myra . You left my hand during the time of need . So why should I hold yours ? Do I look Mother Teresa to you ? GO ON YOUR OWN ! " Saying that Ruhi walked out. She was too busy to participate in their chaos.

Arohi and others were stunned by Ruhi 's response. They didn't expect Ruhi to hold grudges for so long even after they have already apologized to her.

" Give her some space . Let her anger die down " Trisha suggested. And everyone couldn't help but to agree .

" I should go now and talk to brother " Arohi nervously said .

" Yeah... All the best " Everyone said in unison.

Arohi took a deep breath before marching towards her brother's office.

Throughout the way she kept praying to God to save her from the wrath of her brother.

She nervously knocked on the door .

" Come in " Goosebumps crawled all over her body, hearing her brother's deep voice combined with cold tone .

Arohi cautiously walked into her brother's office . She felt like she was walking into the lion's den that too directly into the lion's mouth.

" What's the matter? "

Arohi almost jumped at her brother's voice. She took a deep breath , gathering her courage , she finally spoke out .

" Bhaii , I have a boyfriend. He is the student body president of his university. He is in urgent need of investments for their annual day celebration. I had promised him to bring him investment. I thought I will talk to you but I forgot and tomorrow is their annual day celebration. He needs funds by tomorrow. I am sorry to promise him funds without asking your permission but can you invest in his university , please" Arohi sang out in one breath.

" How much amount of money you promised him?"

" Bhai , 10 crore ." Arohi gulped , couldn't help backing away when she felt cold aura emerging from her brother . Abhiraj's progressively darkening expression had scared the life out of her .

" Which university ? "

" Bhai , Vardhaman International University ".
