Karan was working in his office when his eyes landed at the clock. Only some minutes were left for the lunch time and his lunch had not been delivered yet. He sighed remembering Raya was not in house and it was only Mishti who must have forgotten about it.
But he thought Mishti to be more responsible. A part of his heart still said that she will send his lunch.
Today in the morning, when he was staring in her eyes and she mumbled that his eyes are deep, he heard it, but ignored it. He did so as to not create any awkwardness between them.
"Come in!" He said when heard the knock. It was Mishti. With his lunch.
His lips curved up in a smile and he nodded at her to acknowledge her presence. She smiled and was about to sit in front of him when he stopped her.
"See that couch?" He pointed to a grey sofa. "Sit there." Mishti nodded and went there to serve the plates.
Closing his files in the laptop, karan sat adjacent to Mishti who was serving two plates. "Why two?"
"To have the lunch?"
"But i eat only one plate."
"Another is for me." Mishti said narrowing her eyes.
"You didn't had your lunch?" He asked in concern.
"Can't eat alone." She shrugged. Karan nodded and they ate quietly.
Her mind drifted to the message that she recieved an hour ago.
'Go to karan's office with his lunch and have yours with him only. Don't forget to impress him.'
"Heyy.." She came in senses when karan snapped his fingers. "Where are you lost? In my eyes? That are deep?" He said amusingly.
'So he heard it.' She thought and heat rushed her cheeks.
'Be sassy.' Alina's voice rang.
"Nah. Just thinking how boring you are! I mean who eats in silence? You are truly no fun." She tried her best to sound confident.
"Your eyes are not matching with your words, darling. " he laughed. "Accept that you like my eyes."
"Whatever helps you to digest your food." She rolled her eyes.
His phone beeped and he excused Mishti before walking to the corner. As he talked, mishti noticed him going stiff. Soon, he came to her and told that his driver will drop her back and he needs to go on a meeting.
"But If you are sending your car with me, how will you go?"
"I always have a back up plan, darling. Now go." She blushed at the endearment he used second time for her. She tried to hide it by packing the lunch boxes.
Cute. Karan chuckled.

It was evening and Mishti was trying to find something that can ruin these kundrra's. But found nothing. She checked the whole house except the three rooms, his bedroom, office and library. They were locked and can only be opened fingerprints of the acess-ors.
Her phone beeped and she found two new messages. One from Raya and another by Lexi. She had changed Alina's contact number to Lexi to avoid the risk of getting caught.
She opened Raya's message first.
'Mishti, This young girl-lexi is taking me on a movie. We'll come late and will dinner outside. Take care of yourself and Karan.'
Enjoy. It was followed by a wink emote.
"Alina!" Mishti whispered, shaking her head in disbelief. This girl can do anything to execute their plan asap.
She then tapped Lexi's message.
To say she was flabbergasted seeing it, would be an understatement.
It showed karan shooting at the men without any mercy. And even after his bullets were no more, he knocked out the men easily. It looked he knew what he's doing. He was in the white shirt with navy blue pants which conformed that the vedio was of today.
The message read:
'You see? He's killing our men in circuit house where we had kept the girls rescued from woman trafficking. We were waiting to find their homes and that Kundrra , whom you were thinking innocent, took them away. '
Her mind was blank. She remembered how their team had rescued the girls and kept them in a circuit house. Due to drugs effect, they could not remember, from where they belonged and the team was taking care of them until they are in position to recognise themselves. And now Karan has abducted them again.
"Damn it. My reasons to ruin you, karan, are just increasing day by day. You are truly a Demon who deserve a painful death. You deserve so much pain that you'll beg to your death. Even God won't show you any mercy." She cussed him.
The main door opened and there stood the one she was cussing so heartily. Looking at him, only boiled her blood. As he came in after closing the doors, she noticed blood on his shoes. Even if you see closely, his white shirt had red stains. God knows which Innocent's blood it is.
"Hi darling." He smiled softly.
The same endearment which pleased her before, now disgusted her soul. She only wanted one thing now. Him, ruined.
"Hi." She muttered acting happy of his arrival. "You're early?"
"Yeah, my work for today is done. I'm quite tired now." He told.
Yeah, work for abducting the women is done and now after killing the people you are tired.
"Wanna have some coffee?"
"Yes please."
She nodded and went inside the kitchen. She closed her eyes in frustration that was building inside her and hit her fists in the slab. "I will kill you."
"Whom you'll kill, Mishti?" She heard behind her and her eyes widen.
"I..i..will kill this..this cockroach." She stuttered.
"Cockroach?" He laughed.
"Yeah, i want to give him so much pain that he begs me to kill him. But this cockroach is too clever. Dealing with him is quite hard."
"Oh. I thought you wanna kill me. "
I do.
"Let me tell you the ways, to kill the cockroach in the most painful ways." He said while sitting in the kitchen counter. He looked at mishti who stood lost in thoughts. "What? Make me coffee, darling."
"Yeah."
Irony, is a big bitch. While Mishti was referring karan as cockroach, karan himself was giving ideas to give that cockroach a painful death.
Mishti smirked inwardly.
"Tie him in a steel chain and give him electric shocks. On and off. On and off. Don't let him die and don't let him live in peace.
Or you can just tie him and bring his favorite things in front of him. Tempt him to beg for freedom and when he gives up, free him. Let him run to his love and when he's about to reach it, snatch it away from him.
And then kill him with the spray." He ended.
The way he sounded throughout was just strengthening her hate for him. How he could tell such a cruel plan as if he had tried it already.
"So, how's it." He asked Mishti.
"Amazing. And what if i try both?"
"Double fun then." He laughed and Mishti joined him. She never knew, she could act so well.
"Is my coffee ready, Ms. Killer." He asked curiously.
"Yes, Mr. Cockroach." She handed him the coffee.
"Wait, Ms. Killer. Let me Freshen up first." He excused her and exited.
"How'll you wash off your sins, you sinner?" She muttered in hatered.
