Smita noticed a maid is following her like shadow and she turned towards her
"Yes" she said raising her eyebrows.
"Nothing Ma'am" maid said nervously and took few steps behind. Smita relaxed a bit but that woman keeping an eye to her.
"Ma'am can I comb your hair." she asked nervously. She is fidgeting her hands.
"You are new here."Smita doesn't ask but stat a fact. She must be new to have such a low self esteem. Its not easy to work with Mr. always perfect. One mistake and you are gone.
"Yes Ma'am." She replied.
"What is your job profile?"Smita asked.
" I have to take care of you and your needs."she replied politely but its enough to anger Smita.
" Can you elaborate more. "
" Sir.. said...
"Don't hesitate, speak everything as I am the one for whom you have to work." Smita encouraged her. This man never stopped giving her headache. She can't pinpoint what's going on in his mind. Its necessary for her to know what is his latest adventure.
"Sir said, I have to look after you. Its my job that you eat on time, stay happy, well groomed and have company of someone." she uttered nervously.
Smita was very angry with Akshay. He can't hire a babysitter for her. She is not a kid. She can handle herself even after last night. She is not a porcelain doll who will break into pieces.She can survive a rape no matter how much difficult its for her.
She moved to her room in anger and sign the maid to not to follow her. She isn't a bit surprised by absence of his stuff. He shifted his belongings to guest room, another maid told her. Suddenly there is flood of servant in the house one is cooking, another is cleaning, another one is washing the clothes and one is struggling with Tonga.
Smita felt licking on her feet and look towards her feet. Tonga is licking her feet, she smiled and bend down wards. She caressed the dog who is aggressive & confused by the presence of so much stranger all of sudden. He is barking towards them and all servants running in the corridor. Its complete chaos.

"Its okay my boy." she holds poor dog in her arms. She caressed him and he calm down. She put his food in dog bowl and he ate happily. He followed Smita again.
Letters of offering job in various companies and educational institutes were put on the table. Smita read each one, prospects is very good and pay scale is very high. Its much more than her qualification. She moved to wardrobe to check her suspicion. All her old clothes were neatly arranged there.
Last thing remained to check and she ran towards door and like she expected guard didn't stop her this time. She is free to do whatever she want. He freed her from all his rule and it didn't gave her tiny bit of happiness. She got everything and still felt like a looser.
" How could he control my life?" she moved her hands in her hair.
"Take me office." she ordered to driver and he nodded. She didn't fear humiliation which she faced year's ago. This man needs to know his place. He can't take decisions for anyone's life. He should understand his boundaries.
"Get out everyone." Smita said sternly and all executives start whispering to each other.
"I said get out everyone." Smita stressed each word and for everyone's surprise Akshay didn't said a word. They start leaving one by one and after that Smita just slapped him hard.
"How could you do this to me Akshay?" her rage filled voice echoed in conference room.
"Smita I...
" No "she showed him her palm to stop.
" How could you act indifferent to me after last night. You used me like you wish and then act nothing happened. You imposed so many rule on me and then one fine day you let go everything. "she grabbed his collar.
" How could you Akshay?"She pushed him and he stumbled backward.
" Don't you have a tiny bit of decency? Tell me Akshay why you do that."

She pushed again
" You got intimate with me with your own free will and then treat me like a garbage.
Am I some sort of joke to you? "
" No, you are not joke to me, you never were but I was a joke to you. You never loved me like you claimed. You wanted me and you get me. That's it I was never important to you. "he said one thing which is bothering him for years. Betrayal isn't everyone's cup of tea. Its easy to let go a deceased loved on but tough to let go betrayal of your loved one.
" I don't fake my love Akshay,I never were. Whatever I felt towards you is genuine but you always pretends to be good."
"Yes, I pretend because I was not in love with you." Akshay told the truth which never supposed to come out. Smita get biggest shock of her life. She always believed Akshay loved her but shy in expressing in his feelings.
"This is not true. Everything can't be a lie." devastated smita whispered and then slapped him again. "We promised to be friends before life partner. You agreed to be my best friend and promised to share each truth whether it is ugly or good. Why you break my promise?" Smita jerk him.
"Answer me, Akshay, why you did that to me. Why you destroyed my life?" Tears ran from her eyes. He didn't said a word, too ashamed to say anything.
"If you said once that Smita I don't want you. I have left you without saying a word. I loved you crazily but that was my problem. Why you drag me in pit of one sided love? Why you cared for me. Why you get intimate with me.?"
"Intimacy, intimacy, intimacy do you know how difficult it was for me to touch a woman." his beast unleashed and he blocked her between his arms.Smita was so scared for her life for the first time. He looked like a ferocious beast who can't be tamed. She didn't knew such a shy, reserve next door guy turned out something like this.
" I am sorry." she uttered the words which can cool down the tension. She didn't mean the sorry but still say to safeguards herself. His grip loosen and he sat on the floor. Smita wished to run away from the place but she didn't. It is the only chance to get answers from him. He is in his weakest form. He is venerable and gullible. She can manipulate him today.
"Do you like someone else?" she sat near him. She waited for him to answer. Its not right to push him further.
"No"
"Are you interested in man?" Smita asked with baited breath.
"Why you snatched my family from me?" he asked counter question and Smita is taken a back by his accusations.
"Akshay you are misunderstanding me."
" 26 march 2012, you were the last person who entered there and only surviving person." he whispered and her face paled.She watch him in position no woman want to see her man. He is completely broken and shattered. She is the one who is responsible for it according to him. His each word put grave allegations on her and nothing in the world prove her innocence.
"File police complaint against me." she sighed in disappointment.

His chest glistened with water droplets dribbling down the glowing bronze skin. Resting, his strong muscular back against the rocks on the lake side, head lulled backwards, onyx eyes closed in utter salvation."Your spying on me is utterly useless young tulip." Ink eyes opened, resting upon my little frame making me freeze."What are you thinking? You have got this one chance....run away." He offered his eyes watching my each and every movement like a hawk."I am a prisoner sire, I have heard stories....tales of how war prisoners are mercilessly butchered if they are caught and I can't afford to die....not yet...I have someone to feed and I will do anything for them.""Anything?" He asked in eerily calm voice. I nodded slowly a lump forming in my throat as my eyes glistened with tears with the scenes of men using my eighteen year body flashed infront of me making me tremble.Water splashed around as he rose to his full height inside the lagoon, his eyes solely focused on me, his feet moving forward, closing our distance altogether."Azarios" I stiffened, my eyes snapping to his in utter surprise as I heard the name leaving his plump lips.His identity, the name which echoed throughout the dynasty making every living soul shudder.KillerCommanderBeastHe was the commander of Gladiators.Azarios, the Gladiator of Ambrose."You will be the bride of mine."
