"I wonder
Whose arms would I run and fall into
If I were drunk
In a room with everyone
I have ever loved."

At Platinum Hotel, East wing Club
Above the high bar stool, head leaning against the counter, long dark hairs sprawled around, was sitting a girl. Her body shining under the dim colorful lights inside the room in her sparkling body fit mid thigh clubbing dress.
Her fingers drawing patterns around the rim of her half empty glass containing alcohol.
She wasn't drunk yet. Just few light shots weren't working for her. She needed something stronger.
A sigh escaped her lips, her body moved backward, red bloodshot eyes met with the bartender. Her face was covered in several layers of makeup, making her look for tempting for the passerby mens who watched the beautiful girl sitting there for a quiet a sometime alone. Drinking by herself.
"Give me something stronger." She demanded, pushing away her glass.
"Coming right up milady"
Tina wanted to pretend everything was alright, life never stops for anyone, she shouldn't feel sad over one prick guy, or it's his loss for losing her, or she will find someone better than him. These all were pretty good reason to pretend to move on...
But, she couldn't. Couldn't help but mourn over disastrous end of her two years of relationship.
It hurts. Deep down it hurts even after she scolded herself for stop feeling for a second and pretend it never affected her.
In end, she was still here. Not pretending to be strong. Just being her broken self. Alone.
She knew, she needed to face her cheater fiance herself to accept the reality. She did. It helped her to see clearly past his gentleman facade.
But in end, she was still here, crying over him, like pathetic weak woman.
The bartender placed new more stronger drink than before and she quickly cluchted the glass like her life only cling to the taste of butter liquid.
She was a fool, a big fool to believe a good looking man always surrounded by different beauties suddenly changed for her. Before this thought used to sooth her insecurity,now it made her look like an idiot in front of him.
Asking her out, proposing her with a ring , everything was his sick game to get her into his bed because she was hard to crack. His way of stealing information through her about Angelo corporation, by using her as pawn in game of their rivalry.
Unfortunately this time he got unlucky, Tina was always suspicious of him, but this time she decided to investigate him, after spotting him in one of the high end restaurant she went with Marco Polo for business and saw John there his hands wrapped around another woman's waist, when he was supposed to be out of London for work.
Few hours back, In John's apartment,
Tina was sitting inside the car, parked into the corner of the posh apartment building, hiding together inside with, Leah White her friend and hired detective to investigate matters about John Mathews, her fiance.
She was anxious, waiting for the singal and at the same time, praying it wasn't true and John won't be trapped onto her bait. How wrong she was.
Not only he lied to her about out for work but was drinking inside one of the cheapest..strip club, Great!
Her heart nearly fell out when she noticed, Leah's phone pinged.
"Got him."
~Tipsy
It was a message from one of the hooker Leah hired to seduce John and for Tina to finally catch him red hand committing crime.

So he was really there.
After 15 minutes of more waiting,
"Door is open."
~Tipsy
Her heart hammering inside her chest, fist clenched Tina was ready to march inside the den of her cheating fiance. It was now or never.
She opened the door to get down but halted feeling a hand pressing above her shoulder.
Leah was worried for Tina, she wanted to accompany her but wasn't sure. She stopped Tina placing her hand and asked slowly, "Do you want me to come with you?"
Tina shook her head in 'no',
"Just wait here Leah. If I am not out after 20 minutes, you are allowed to come and kill him."
Then without another word, she marched inside the building and entered inside the familiar apartment she all knew too well. The door was actually open.
Deep in her heart she was still hoping, he wouldn't cheat on her with someone else and would push her away, or he is just intoxicated, he is not guilty.
It was all just her expectations, which were meant to broke soon.
Her dark eyes burned along with her whole body, bubble of hot rage boiled as she shivered in pure hatred mixed with disgust.
She was so angry she wanted to beat him up or stab him on the spot. The man for whom she wasted two years of her life, was having fun so intimately with another woman. He didn't even tried to look behind him. He was so busy with his disgusting pathetic loud moans and display of his bare body.
How many times he has done this before behind her back?
'Not the first time.'
A voice whispered deep into her.
Her fingers curled tightly on the bucket filled with ice and cold water, without blinking she poured all this over the two joined naked bodies.
"Argghhh!!"
Loud shrieks of pain instantly broke out from their mouths as they stumbled together, soothing her wounds slightly.
Panting, gasping the wet sheets the bastard finally turned to face her.
Water droplets running around his body, his hairs clinging all over his face. He looked so pathetic at the same disgusting calling her name with that dirty mouth of his as he paled like ghost "Tina.."
Tina's ears burned. So cheap. She didn't like her name on his lips at all.
She hissed coldly, "Stop calling my name.. it sounds so disgusting.. uhh.."
Her fists clenched, she felt like going crazy with anger and couldn't help but shout loudly.
"Sooo... Damn disgusting.."
"YOU--" She pointed to the woman shivering, and was drenched wet too "--girl get up!! And go lock the door."
The woman didn't move. She was still lying there frozen in her place, staring scared towards Tina, her body shivering.
"WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT?? GET UP NOW AND LOCK THE BLOODY DOOR FROM INSIDE."
The voice was so terrifying, the drenched girl pushed off John away from her and clutching the wet sheets around her bare body she ran towards the door.
John was about to follow the girl to stand up but was quickly pushed back by his shoulders, a muderous looking Tina hovering over his face clutching the big shiny polished knife in her hands and pointed the tip to his cheeks.
"not you, you cheating ass. Do not try to even move or I'll stab your face deeply till the blood gushes out.. do you understand me huh?"
Her sinister voice with menacing look, sent cold shivers up and down John's back. He was so frightened he couldn't even look straight into her eyes without peeing. The touch of knife to his skin made his breathing stop.

It was his first time, he has seen Tina so angry out of her mind and threatening him crazily with a knife. He could only follow her orders.
"Words, answer me you pathetic shit."
"Ye-es" he wasn't drunk anymore
"Now you listen pathetic dumb man, I will ask and you will answer my questions. Got it?" Her bloodshot eyes stared as John no longer dared to stare into her eyes.
Trailing the knife down and under his subtle chin she ordered, "look up and answer me."
She was satisfied looking at him gulp as he shivered looking up and timidly answered,"ye-es."
"My questions, your answers or this knife, cutting your neck. "
John's eyes widened. The aura the sweet little Tina was giving now was scaring through his core.
"Good."
Tina was satisfied with his reaction.
"Now answer me, Why did you lie? You were in London the whole time righ?"
John was tongue tied. Slight push of knife onto his neck and he uttered three disgusting words.
"To-o hook-k up."
"You tried to spy into my work related materials many times? Why?"
John was silent for a second.
"I-I am Mathews.. We are rivals of Angelo.. so.. I was forced to.."
The last question, Tina was dreading to get answer.
"Why did you propose me John? When you were cheating behind my back all the time.."
John lowered his eyes.
"Answer me!"
"To get you to sleep with me.. you were so-o adamant to after marriage.. and I took you as a challenge-e.."
"Were you ever going to marry me John?" Tina whispered her spirit low.
"No. I wanted to dump you after getting you in my bed."
Tina's face twitched in pain. She should have known. She was really so innocent to turn blind eye over him.
It was the last thread of her patience which broke completely.
She stepped back from him.. and removed her engagement ring.
"Take this as your payment."
Tossing the ring into hands of Tipsy she walked out of the apartment, tears running down her cheeks.
So, this is how heartbreak feels like. A stabbing pain.
Present:
Tina was busy remembering the past few hours of her life, which changed everything for her. When suddenly she stirred feeling the foreign touch of rough fingers on exposed part of her shoulder.
"Hello Beautiful" A voice whispered close to her ears.
She shrugged her shoulder to get rid of unwanted touch. She wasn't in mood to chat with anyone.
But the owner was stubborn. He still continued to bother her, by his touches.
"Do not ignore me baby. What a beautiful lady like yourself doing here alone?"
Irritated Tina decided to acknowledge, her puffy red eyes snapped to the strange man standing behind her "WHAT?!!"
The man was interested in her. He couldn't stop raking his lustful eyes up and down her bare long tanned legs, touch of her soft skin. He was observing her for a while and decided to finally approach her.
The man shrugged off her bitter mood and smiled seductively, "In bad mood huh! How about I offer you a drink and you tell me about it, love?"
Tina scoffed. What a lame guy! Like I don't have money to buy a drink for myself.
"I'm not beggar Mister whatever your name is! I am capable of buying myself anything I need, without going bankrupt. So leave"
She wasn't in the mood to entertain other peoples.
The man's smile flattered. But he wasn't one who accepts rejection. Who does this girl think she is? By tonight she will be begging me for more.
Stubborn, he took a seat beside her, and clasped his large hands, holding firmly Tina into his own. His eyes dark moving to her cleavage.
Tina wiggled her hands to get them free. Huh! Why don't this piece of shit leave me alone.
"Leave my hand you pervert."
"Oh honey. You sure likes perverts .. why don't we get out of here?" He suggested tracing back of her wrist with his thumb.
Disgusted, Tina decided to get violent. Moving up her leg she dipped her heels painfully deeper into the shoes of the man while scratching her nails deeper into his skin.
The man was instantly angry, his grip loosened. He yelled at her angrily "You bitch...how--."
Before he could complete his sentence, he was already pulled away from Tina by a hand who grabbed his collar.
"You shouldn't force others girlfriends. This is unacceptable gentlemanly behaviour."
A mocking voice said to him who was still holding his collar.
Angry the man turned his neck and came face to face with the very charming man, face craved sharply along with his staring wide grey eyes perfectly complimenting his slightly longer blonde messy hairs. His eyebrows arched up in challenge.
It was Alan Kai Angelo.
He pushed off Alan's hands from his collar roughly. To which Alan gave him a wide melting smile, showing off his teeths and beauty.
The man gritted his teeths,
"Girlfriend? I've observed that girl for more than 20 minutes. She came here alone, and was drinking alone the whole time. You're clearly lying."
Alan chuckled.
A non humorous deep chuckle.
His face shining under the glow of light, as he narrowed his eyes at the strange man playfully
"Tsk. Tsk. You won't believe me. No problem." He clapped his hands, and soon two dark tall scary figures emerged from the shadows, both taking positions beside him "Max and Ben will help you believe me for now."
The two, tall well built bodyguards with bulging muscles underneath their t-shirts took threatening steps forward, scaring the daylights out of the man who was just showing off his fake confidence. All his arrogance evaporated and subconsciously he gulped stepping back.
"Eh..I am believe you. I am leaving."
And he ran away without looking back.
Shaking his head disappointed, Alan only watched him ran away.
"That was no fun. Sigh! I was rooting for a real wresting match here ,with you two."
The Two Bodyguards: 👀 👀
* Second Boss is really funny *
Alan tilted his head and looked down at the most beautiful sight he has ever seen. The familiar dark haired beauty covered in tight sparkling blue short dress, gulping down alcohol, her pink lips wet as she took small sips fluttering her long eyelashes.
She even ignored him, her knight who saved her.
He was annyoed.
What a waste of my time! She didn't even offered me a kiss in return.
Sulking he took a seat beside her and poked her arm.
"Hey Tanuja.." *poke*
No response.
"Oy Tanuja Sharma.." *poke poke*
Still No response.
"Miss Tanuja Sharma.."
This time his fingers were gripped tightly by her , as she turned to look at him with a scowl plastered on her gorgeous face.
"Stop irritating me.. annyoing bratty man! And stop calling me with that old lady name too or I will chop off your fingers myself."
Alan gasped, his smile wearing off.
While the bodyguards looked shocked.
Did this little woman called the boss.. annyoing bratty man and threatened him??
Tina unaware of their reactions continued drinking till her head felt light.
"One more.." she shouted at the bartender.
Alan tried to poke his nose and stop her. But that was his another mistake.
Tina's muderous glare made the confident handsome blonde man retreat in defence.
30 minutes passed...
Tina was feeling drowsy but instead of decreasing the dosage of alcohol, it increased.
Alan who took few shots was just staring at her face and limits.
He couldn't stop her. How many times he tried but was unsuccessful.
She was becoming more wild, out of control beast. Seeing no other option, he dialled a number, he wasn't supposed to..
It was soon turned into his mistake as .. the devil of his brother was also present there..who will love to have his head served..

Back to Tina's Apartment,
Saanvi's Room:
Saanvi stared nervously at the numbers displaying on her phone screen.
Should I do it?
No. No.
I can't.
Badly, she was itching to press the number and call them.
Her heart beating faster , adrenaline increasing in her blood in anxiety as her fingers hovered over the green icon.
Just press the call icon. Simple right?
She started biting her lips. Eyes little blurry remembering the happy or sad memories. Her fingers tightly gripped her phone, so it won't fall on the floor from her grip and break into pieces.
Her right hand loosened and directly went to play with her ring hanging around her neck securely, to feel peace.
One day you need to do it. So why not now? A voice whispered in her head.
Right. But . . would they even interested in talking to me?
Am I too late?
Suddenly under the quietness of room, her phone started ringing loudly in her hands breaking away from her overthinking.
She jumped a little but calmed down after taking deep breaths.
She looked at the ID.
She was little relieved and little disappointed by the coming call.
So.. she is not calling them today too.
Just for now.
A bitter smile formed into her lips. Every onuce of confidence leaving her body. She cannot do it. Not right. She cannot face her parents. Not today. She isn't ready.
Sighing. She looked at the screen.
It was an unknown number.
But she picked it up anyway. What if it was important? Yes.
"Hell--"
[Sister-in-law... Come here quickly.. I need your help.]
Saanvi blinked.
Through phone came the familiar panick voice of a male but with foreign endearment.
"Sorry Sir. Wrong number--"
[What!? No. you need to come here fast or you will lose your friend today with alcohol poisoning.]
Saanvi frowned more confused. This is definitely wrong number.
"Sorry Sir--- I don't understand--" she was cut off again.

8 184A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
