Shark walked into his study and got hold of Dr. Matt over the phone. Over the last few days, he had been relying on him for everything concerning the Banks. He couldn't complain at all since Shark paid for it, something Matt was compelled because his Clinic was almost complete by the help of Shark's money.
"How's the old folk doing?" Shark asked Dr. Matt on the receiving end.
"The old man is asleep now. He was reluctant to take his medicine at first but he'll be okay. He kept on asking for her." Matt said.
"She's fine. Come over tomorrow and check up on her."
"Sure Sir." Dr. Matt muttered and soon Shark ended the call when he heard footsteps approaching his Study.
"Come on in Marcus. What have you got on those jerks?"
"We were able to track their current location and surprisingly it's one of your property, the beach house." Marcus informed him.
"And did you get to know their leader?"
"Rocco Burton, he's a drug dealer and a human molester. It seems like one of the Griffins is connected with him."
"Mother, what are you up to?" Shark muttered under his breath. The beach house was currently acquired by Vanessa's potential investors and now he knew his mother was up to no good. The people who had acquired the property were none other than the Burton family.
"Someone wants her gone, someone who knows he or she will benefit from it all." Marcus gave his own point of view.
"It's alright Marcus, I know who wants her dead. I want you to send your best men to keep a close eye on Carina and Blake. The duo have laid low for quite some time now. Something is surely burning and soon the flames will destroy everything. Keep me posted."
"I'm on it Boss." He saluted at him and walked out. Shark sighed deeply and dialed a number.
"Get hold of Mayor Parker's financial books and all the transactions he has made for the past one year." Shark summoned and cut the call.
He creased his temples and scratched his stubble trying to calculate every plan he had in mind for every external force bound to take him down. He knew all his foes and how the coming of Yara in his life would cost him a lot. Yara was a threat to Carina because if she were to be Shark's wife, that only meant her father going bankrupt and her image to the public getting tarnished. Carina was Vanessa's other plan after Rocco failed to kill Yara. If she couldn't have Yara gone then she could make her life a living hell. Her ulterior motive was to have Shark marry Carina, someone worthy of their social status even though she never liked her.
Yara was unaware of the evil surrounding her. She had become the centre of manipulations and blackmails. Her soul was being hunted, something Shark wasn't ready to give in without putting a fight. He couldn't let the woman he so much loved and adored to be the victim of the malicious schemes his own bound of flesh hatched.
Meanwhile in Shark's bedroom, Yara was done eating and wanted to have a warm bath before retiring to bed. She sauntered to the hot tub and dipped her body in the warm water full of shampoo. She scrubbed her body for a long time and closed her eyes to enjoy the relaxing effect the water had. She stayed so long in the tub until she fell asleep. Due to the unfavorable temperatures, her nose began to bleed and the water turned bloody.
Shark walked into the room expecting to find her fast asleep but was astonished to see the bed empty. He knocked the door to the whirlpool but he didn't get a response, turning the door knob, it was locked from inside.
He scurried to the bedside table and took out a punch of keys and tried to open the door.
"Yara! What have you done?" He took her out of the bloody water and quickly put her on the vast bed. He got a bathing robe and wrapped it on her body to cover her nakedness. He couldn't risk getting another scolding having to see her bare with no clothes on. It was pure torture on his side, she was making him awfully horny and before he could think of anything else, his junk was up. He doused his desires yet a second time and began to dry her hair.
Yara moved when she felt a strong breeze teasing her face. The blow-dryer was making her let out soft moans.
"Jeez Yara! Are you trying to seduce me? Because I can't seem to get you out of my mind." Shark thought as she suddenly opened her eyes and saw him.
"Did you...."
"What?"
"You have no shame at all." She acted grumpy.
"Oh really? Then explain why you intentionally slept on the tub knowing that you were naked? How was I supposed to get you out of there.... I'm a man Yara and I have needs." He challenged her.
"What needs?" She asked scornfully.
"This is one of my needs," he took her little hand and made her touch his cock that was growing bigger in his pants.
"Ohh! It's so big!" Yara exclaimed in her thoughts.
"This is not knew to you, isn't it? Neither am I the first man to see you naked."
Yara was taken aback by his words. Nothing he said was true, Blake was never interested in her body. In fact, Shark was the first man to see her pure skin.
