Chapter 1

Previous night has been the longest in her life. She was away from her house for one whole day and night.

Once again she tried to wriggle against the rope tying her hands

Helpless! She tried to let out a muffled scream with her taped mouth. Tears streaming down her eyes making her eyes swollen

She didn't remember how she ended up here. Her last memory was drinking the coffee in her office and coming out she took the taxi for house

Coffee! Had someone meddled with her cup of coffee? But who can do this and why?

Her head was spinning now. She has thought over every possible situation which landed her here but she was unable to comprehend the correct reason

Sighing, she did what she was doing from the time she has awaken, shedding tears

Yes she came here in an unconscious state and when she awake then realization dawned on her that she was being kidnapped

But why? This was the question only her kidnapper could answer

"Abi" what was the condition of her father learning that his daughter has been kidnapped just four days before her wedding?

"God please help me, show me the way out from here" She silently prayed in her mind. Little did she knew that her prayer was already being answered

In the huge lounge of Affandi House preparations were going on in full swing. Workers were busy decorating the walls with flower garlands. Saiqa Affandi was instructing the workers, although 49 years of age but looking half of her age. Nobody can guess that she is the mother of to be groom

"What are you doing? Do it carefully" She said coming down the stairs, "Manal you are sitting here calmly, go and get dressed for mehndi baita" She told to the girl around 20 who was the sister of groom to be

"Mom chill na, there is still ample of time for that" She replied still texting

Manal was one spoiled kid, her brothers would fill her every right or wrong demand just for a mere smile on her face. She's been the most loved person of the house

"And where is Maier?" Saiqa inquired taking a seat beside her daughter

"I don't know maybe in his room"

"Ok I shall check him" Saiqa again got up and went upstairs to see her son

She heard the clicking of door and frightened she backed off on the floor slightly, praying to God for help. Somebody came inside and stepping forward he just stopped in front of her. Daring to look at her abductor, she got the shock of her life

Arsam, he did it. She always looked at him like her classmate and a nice human being. Yes they were in the same class and he was her group partner for several of their assignments and projects. Rage filled in her as she stared him kneeling down in front of her

"Please don't take me wrong, I came here to help you" Saying he removed tape from her mouth

Help Was he really here for her help. Did God listen to her prayers.

No she cannot trust him She thought to herself as now he was untying her hands

"What do you want? Why you did this?" Moving backward she asked but not waiting for answer she now pleaded him to let her go, "Look if you are really here for my help, please .. please get me out of here, just take me to my house"

"I cannot do that" He said and she felt herself the fool asking him for the help. Seconds ago he told her that he was here for her help and now he was denying it. Of course if he kidnapped her then why would he help her

"You just said that you'll help me out and now you are refuting from your early statement . What .. what do you want? Why you kidnapped me?" Asking she looked around for anything to hit him and get away from here

"If I said that I'll help you then I'll do it but please you have to keep patience"

Patience The word hit her mind intensely and she just lost it

"PATIENCE! YOU ARE ASKING ME TO KEEP PATIENCE? In four days I have my wedding. My Abi must've died thousand deaths learning that his daughter is missing, I am away from home for almost one day and night AND HERE YOU ARE ASKING ME TO STAY CALM AND KEEP PATIENCE"

He sighed at her outburst. She was right, in this society whatever the circumstances may be, always the woman would get all the accusation to face. People won't think twice before charging the girl even if she would be a victim. And the girl sitting in front of him was the one he had crush on back in university. He never shared it with anyone but the elegance and the nobility she carries were the reasons he respects her. The same girl is now seeking help from him but he was helpless

"Listen carefully" His tone serious meant only business, "Take this phone and call your father, tell him that you came to London to visit your best friend Sabeen as her father had a sudden heart attack, she needed you so in hurry you forgot to inform him" He finished narrating the madeup story and looked up at her for reactions

SLAP! She felt like hitting him hard in his face and she did. What he thought that it would be so easy! She will call her father and he will believe her. The news of her disappearance itself would've been spread like the fire in forest and here he was providing her with this silly made up story of his

"What do you think? It is so easy. My Abi would have come to know by now that I'VE BEEN ABDUCTED, this is the help you're here to do for me?"

Furious, what he was right now She just don't have any damn idea whom she's messing with

Taking the rope from the floor, he held her arms and tied her hands again, all the while boring his venomous gaze in to her and when he speak his voice was as cold as his eyes

"If you don't want any help, it's just fine. Rot here now!" Watching intently at her who again start wriggling to break the ties, "And for your question, Yes I Kidnapped you" Her struggling immediately stopped as she stared him getting up

Disgusting, She thought genuinely that he was here for her help

"You want to know who I am?" There's something in his hoarse voice she couldn't take her eyes off him, "A gangster"

Terror filled her completly. She always looked at him as a gentle, nice and humble guy. Well that's what we thought about you she noted to herself

He was a criminal

The man who minutes ago sympathizing with her, ready to help her geniunely got infiruated by her one action her slap. Now he was revealing his true identity to her

"The most inflential man of the underworld, I abduct and kill people for money" while speaking his eyes were on her fear filled face, and he enjoyed it a lot

Is he going to kill me also

It was as if he read her mind, "Want to know why I kidnapped you?"

"Why?" slip of tongue

Smirking evilly he knelt down again and when he spoke she thought her surroundings were blurring

"To get you married" was the answer

Marry a criminal ... No

"NO ... NEVER ... Ooo Mmmm"

Not bothering about her rejection he taped her mouth again, while she shook her head furiously in denial, tears rushing down her eyes

Not paying attention to her miserable state anymore, he left the room, leaving her again to cry at her ill fate
