Chapter 70 - The homework-4

Shanaya finally looked in his eyes when the silence in the office became unbearable, the seconds seemed minutes, and she spoke in a determined tone" It would be me who will decide what happens with him."

Withdrawing her eyes from his face, she shook her head in disbelief and disgust wrap her face. 'You know what he did?" looking back at Vihaan whose eyes were only on her, she spoke with a broken voice, as if the next thing she was going to say had pained her as of the same pain someone feels once stabbed with a knife."

" He..." controlling herself, she spoke finally" He sėxuȧŀly... ȧssaul.....ted.." but the burden of saying was much more and, she stopped.

The moment she stopped, Vihaan lung toward her, his hands on the arm of her chair, his eyes full of anger, his mind's veins pumping fast, his heart beating faster, but praying hard" Not his Shanaya., please..."

He knew he was selfish to think like it, to have someone else take her position, but, he was ready to be responsible for it.

He just could not tolerate anything happening to her, and he was ready to be punished for being selfish and, he spoke in a hoarse voice" Who?"

It would have been a simple word in a normal context, but not at that moment.

"Ms Kriti, and..", but, Shanaya stopped dead.

No, she would never tell him what happened to her. It was a personal thing for her, she needed his help to give justice to Ms kriti, but she was going to give justice to her on her own.

"I will kill that bastard!!" pounding the desk hard with his fist, he cursed and making a distance between them, he paced in the room, his hand all over his hair, his face full of hatred.

He could not believe it! He had not interacted much with Ms Kriti, but he knew her enough to call it as his own "personal issue" and, he was going to make sure the bastard pay it.

He marched toward his desk and picking up the phone, he dialled a number, while cursing it again and again" I will kill him, I won't leave him."

"What are you doing?" snatching the phone from Vihaan, Shanaya spoke in a terrified tone.

"He is going to rot in Prison!, I will personally make it sure he never sees the sun again in his life" the voice was enough to prove he was going to do but, that was not what Shanaya wanted.

"I just told you he is mine to decide." speaking with a loud but controlled voice, Shanaya looks at Vihaan who was glaring at her for interrupting him.

"Just because she was a woman, doesn't give anyone to do that to her! She was my employee. She was next to me when it comes to power. And, if she could not be saved from those evil intentions of a man, how can I be sure my other female employees are safe?? How can I be sure I won't be facing the same thing!? " continuing in her tone, Shanaya paced around the office and, she did what she had never dared.

Clasping her hand with, Vihaan's she asked him what he would never give to her" Please, please,,, let me do it in my way. I need you, yes I need you but, I do not want you to do anything right now."

Vihaan's mind was all messed up, he wanted to take his hand back, he wanted to say he would not let her do anything alone, but he just could not. The warmth he was getting from her hands, the eyes that were pleading him and looking at him with hope made him curse and, he closed his eyes in desperation.

He would have done everything for her, but not the things she was asking.

But having no option, he spoke" Okay, but I want every minute detail about it." and looked at her with those eyes that speak' Do what I want or, else you will have me to handle'.

" I will and thanks" replying to him in a thankful voice, Shanaya looked at his eyes, his face and wondered what he would do if he came to find everything.

Having nothing to speak, Shanaya nodded in his direction, and her eyes finally sighted their locked hands. It feels so perfect to have her palm touching his palm, the warmth making her feel safe with him. Oh God! how much she would love it, but they were not lovers, hell, they were nothing and yet everything.

Vihaan saw her taking her hands back, felt the warmth gone and how much he wished to place them back and never let them go. He saw Shanaya reaching the office door and, he wished her not to go.

"Oh, yes! I have one thing more to ask" turning her face, she blinked her eyes twice to take some time, and when she saw Vihaan waiting, she spoke," Are you sure nothing more happened on your birthday night?"

And there it was, the amusement she had not seen on his face for such a long time.

Straightening near his desk, Vihaan eyes glowed and placing his hand on either side of the pant's pocket he spoke" That's your homework, Ms Shanaya" his tongue rolling on 'Shanaya', making her name sound sėxy.
