《The Billionaire in Love》Chapter 7
Advertisement
I woke up with the ringing of my phone that was near my ear.
Damn I had forgotten to leave it somewhere that was not near my body.
I flinched at the sound of it.
I got up and picked up my phone
"Hello, Arshad Khan speaking" I said in a sleepy voice.
"Mr. Arshad Khan, if you are done sleeping...... GET YOUR SELF DOWN FOR PRAYERS!" said the voice
I recognised to be...... hers..
I opened my eyes. WIDE.
"Who gave you my number?!?" I asked her.
"Am... ah.... just come down to prayers!" she said
"Is this your number?" I asked curious to know... not that I needed it but.... so..... forget it..
"No!" she snapped back.
"Ok... " I said not wanting to hang up.... why? no idea!!
"Okay... then come now! Allah Hafiz" she said and hung up.
I got up and went into my shower.
After that I got dressed and down for prayers.
************
Soon after Fajr prayer (morning prayer) my whole family set and discussed the upcoming Azma and Adnaan wedding.
I didn't get to see Ahaya, not that I wanted to, as she was in the kitchen with the women and girls.
"So what do you think, Arshad?" asked bade Abba.
My head snapped back on the discussion.
"Ah what?" I asked. This is gonna be..... long.....
"Why are you lost?" asked Haan.
Curse his intelligence! No wander he is in the CBI
"I am not... I was just thinking" I replied covering up for that lost thing..
"About what?" asked Haan.
Damn, is he like questioning me!?!!
Well, what ya think!?!! said my inner voice.
"Ah.... am... about the wedding?' I said more like a question.
"Oh..." He replied
Then the discussion continued.

I sneaked a glance at the kitchen door and this time made sure I was not lost in the conversation.
Then finally, getting me away from the discussion, my phone rang.
"Ah excuse me" I said as I got up and walked up to my room.
On my way, I glanced in the kitchen window and saw Ahaya looking out of the door.
She seemed to be searching for something.
I smiled at her childishness. I stood there looking at her.
I was so mesmerised at her that I had forgotten that I had a call to attend.
I smiled and then headed to my room to take the call.
Damn how mush she meant to me!
Woah there! Where did that thought come from!?!!!
I shook my head as I entered my room.

The Last Orellen (An Epic Progression Fantasy)
According to prophecy, the ninth-born child of Lord Orellen will have the sort of power that changes the world. But in a land ruled by mage families, no one welcomes the possibility of a dangerous new player. Fearful even of their allies, the Orellens come up with an extraordinary and deadly scheme to protect themselves. If the most powerful sorcerers in the world wish to kill the ninth-born, they will have to find him or her first. And that's not going to be easy when the Orellens have called upon dark magic to create hundreds of heirs. The boys and girls are given new bodies, new names, and even new magical talents before they are scattered across the continent. Only one among them is the real ninth, but all of them will have to grow up in a world where they are fugitives. Kalen, once fated to die, is now an Orellen heir in hiding. And he is determined to survive, even if he has to master his strange new powers to do it. The Last Orellen is a long, character-focused progression fantasy set in a vast universe about a boy's journey to become a powerful mage. Reviews are deeply appreciated. Please do not repost my work elsewhere without my written permission. What type of reader is this book for? You might enjoy The Last Orellen if you like... Clever and resourceful protagonists. Big fantasy worlds. Multiple cultures, lots of characters, many different types of magic--this story is expansive rather than closely focused on a narrow storyline. Progression fantasy that takes its time. Our main character will be progressing through magical ranks, but this is going to be a lengthy story. If you're more about the journey than the destination, this might be the book for you. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
