Chapter 83 - Fear

Standing in her room in the apartment she had rented, looking at her reflection in the mirror in a grey see-through backless maxi dress, Shanaya turned to see herself from the back.

The dress was beautiful as suggested by Ms kriti for the evening party Mr Singhania has hosted in the honour of Vihaan winning the 'CEO of the Year' award, again.

She had come to her apartment for the dresses she was going to wear at the party. She had been residing at Rathore's Mansion since the mishappening, but, she knew she needs to go back to her apartment one day.

But, as usual, Vansh had denied her request to be back. All he said was "You will go back once we are sure."

After telling Vihaan everything, she had dialled Vansh number on coming out of Vihaan's office and had told Vansh everything. She was going to keep her promise of having no secret.

Except, for the secret that she was going to keep forever and ever. .

She had come to know about the award three days ago, the day Vihaan had hugged her. Vihaan was the one to inform about it.

That was the first good news she had heard in a while, and, she could not deny it. She was not a party person but knowing Mr Singhania was the one to throw the party she very well knows it was not a party. It was his idea to strengthen their ties and bonding, again, after the incident with Aniket.

Looking back at herself, she seemed confused.

The dress was pretty and perfect for the party, but Shanaya being Shanaya she wanted something decent. The dress she was wearing was revealing a lot of her skin and, she hated showing her skin in public.

She had no issue wearing a knee-length dress at the office or shorts at the house, but, wearing the dress that was revealing her entire back, a tiny part of her waist from the right side and the slit of it showing off her toned thɨġhs was so much.

"I need to change it" talking to herself she walked toward her wardrobe near the window of her room when she caught someone's figure hiding out in the bushes and, trees.

Her apartment was on the ground floor and, she could see someone was stalking her while, hiding.

Fear grasped her and, she walked back immediately, switching the lights off.

She needed not to know who the person could be!

"Vansh, please come soon" praying to herself she reached her bed to pick her phone and dialled his number.

Vansh was supposed to pick her up for the party and, she knew he would be there soon.

"I need not worry, Vansh will be here soon" calming herself while listening to any suspicious activities outside her apartment, she repeated the words as if chanting.

Five minutes passed and, nothing out of the ordinary happened.

Sitting in the surrounding of silence and darkness, she found herself covered in sweating.

But, no way was she going to scream or get affected by it.

She was not going to let herself affect by any consequences of triggering Aniket. She was not going to fear him.

Her body shakes in fear as soon as she heard the banging on her door and, she clutched her phone with more force.

The relief that passed through her body was indescribable when she heard Vansh voice outside the door" Shana? Are you okay?".

Switching on the light, she spoke hurriedly" Coming, Vanshu" and took several long breathes. Once, she was okay, she walked toward the mirror and, picking up the tissues, she removed the drops of sweats covering her face.

Gone were her anxiety and fear. All she could do while looking at her besty was stare.

Vansh was looking breathtaking.

"Wow! you are looking beautiful, hot and sėxy", entering her room, Vansh complimented her while looking at her with pure admiration.

"You stole my chance of complimenting you. You are looking" looking at Vansh, again, Shanaya completed the sentence" Awesome, Handsome and hot!".

"Did I just miss the chance of being 'sexy'?" speaking while walking toward the bed, Vansh winked at Shanaya and lying on the bed on his back, he looked at Shanaya expecting an answer.

"You will never be 'sexy' for me." arching her brows, Shanaya spoke and moved toward the mirror and look at herself.

"Are you sure I look good?" biting her lips, she glanced back at Vansh through the mirror.

"Yes, you look, amazing! Why are you having doubts?" scanning her with no ŀust, Vansh answered her back.

"I do not know! I feel uncomfortable with all this skin show." looking again at herself for the hundredth time, she walked toward her wardrobe, when she made her mind.

"I am going to change it. Wait for me for five minutes more," informing Vansh, she rushed toward the bathroom, to change.
