Her Mysterious Lover

Chapter 34



Falak’s POV

.

He composed himself, and in the way he took his position, I knew that he knew how to fight. I never knew that all my Karate classes were going to pay me off tonight. Ten years, I have been practicing it for the last ten years.

He wiped the blood oozing his lips before speaking, “You surely have your father’s blood in you.”

“I would take that as a compliment.”, I responded and felt so good to know that my father, Aarvik Singh Rathore, also had kicked his ass just like me or more than me.

“Falak…Falak…”, A worried voice echoed on the stair.

“I’m here.”, I shouted, looking upward, and this was the worst mistake of my life because that bastard used this opportunity and pushed me from the stairs. I tried to hold something, but there was nothing to hold.

Shit!

“Aaaaaa” I cried loudly and fell down the stairs one after another, and my head hit on each stair like a bouncing ball.

I couldn’t realize anything for a while. I touched my head and wasn’t surprised to see blood in between my fingers. I couldn’t hear anything; maybe because of the pain or something, I looked around to see that Klaus was beating the shit out of my kidnapper. His devilishly handsome face was covered with unbearable anger.

I tried to hear what he was saying, but I could hear anything as if my ears got blocked or something.

Breathe IN, Breath OUT.

Breathe IN, Breath OUT.

And then I felt my ear start working again, but I still couldn’t hear the sound clearly.

“You bastard, you’re going to pay for this.”, He yelled, grabbing my kidnapper from his neck. He was no more a human, but he had turned into a completely walking fire dragon. The next thing I saw, Jacob and others came there and tried to pull Klaus away from my kidnapper.

It looked like a fight between iron and magnet, where magnet, aka Klaus, didn’t want to leave iron, aka my kidnapper.

I was thankful that Klaus was teaching him a great lesson about hurting me, but at the same time, I didn’t want Klaus to kill anyone and get into police cases or something because of me.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

“Klaus, STOP.”, Jacob yelled at him, finally pulling him away from Adhiraj Srivastava. “Albert, take this bastard with you and lock him up.”

“Yes, sir.”, Albert nodded, taking Adhiraj from there. At the same time, both Klaus and Jacob walked toward me. Wow! Finally, they remembered that even I was here. Klaus helped me to sit, but because of the pain, I wanted nothing but lay down again. He leaned toward me to lift me, but I quickly held Jacob’s hand.

I didn’t want someone else to lift me where my boyfriend was right near me. I was thankful to Klaus for whatever he did for me. He might look like an arrogant jerk or a heartless monster, but he was a gentleman.

He looked at my hand holding Jacob’s hand, and his jaw muscles clenched, and his face got clouded.

Why did he look angry again?

Did he really hate our relationship to the extent that he didn’t even want to see me touching my own boyfriend?

“I’m taking her to the penthouse.”, Jacob said in a low tone, on which Klaus didn’t say anything. When Jacob leaned to pick me in his arms, I allowed him instantly, but something…something in my heart was not settling right. I didn’t know why but I was feeling nervous, which was quite abnormal. Jacob started toward to god knows where! I didn’t give a damn about that fact because of two reasons:

I was occupied with my own thoughts. Though everything was pointing that Jacob was my mysterious lover, but my heart and my body were saying otherwise. Though the cologne smell was the same but it couldn’t calm down my restless heart.

Boyfriend or Not boyfriend, Jacob was someone who could never think of taking advantage of me or any girl.

I didn’t realize when did he place me in bed until he broke my chain of thoughts. “The doctor will be reaching here anytime soon!”

I nodded my head and held his hand when he was about to leave my side. “Thank you,”

“You don’t have to be.”, He smiled, but immediately his smile vanished when I leaned toward him to kiss him. He placed his palm on his lips before speaking. “No, Falak! I’m not the one who loves you.”

‘I knew it.’, My heart jumped out of happiness while I ejected myself from him as my mind was not ready to accept what I had just heard.

“What?” I couldn’t help the shock coming from my voice.

“I know you think that I’m the one who loved you all this year, even now, but I’m not the one.”, He clarified again. I looked into his eyes to see any kind of joke or prank, but I didn’t find any. In fact, he looked damn too serious while saying so.

“But…” I started speaking but paused, trying to recall everything which led me to this conclusion. Not to forget, I was feeling embarrassed. He was the one who loved me; still, I was throwing myself at him. He might be thinking what kind of shameless person I was! But those leads…those leads were indicating that he was the one.

“But.. I saw you, keeping parcel on my desk.” I pointed out my first confusion.

“Ah! About that…I was doing that because HE asked me to do that.”, He responded.

‘HE? Now, who is this HE guy?’

“But…you use the same cologue which is used, my mysterious lover.” I pointed out my second confusion, on which Jacob chuckled. This was not at all funny.

“Seriously, Falak? That cologue can be used by anyone. I mean ANYONE who has money. Because that’s a special edition which is too expensive for any normal people to afford.”

“Ash heard you speaking in a male and female voice at the same time over the call. What was that then?” I pointed out my third confusion.

“Well, my mother had arranged a date for me that day, but I didn’t go to meet her. I didn’t want to disappoint her at that moment. That’s why I was kind of making a fool of my mom.”

Making a fool of your mom?

Heck! Right now, I was thinking that I was making a fool of myself.

“But…your birthday! Your birthday is on 8th April, just like HIM.”

“I’m sure that there’re a lot of people born on 8th April.”

“You.. you replied to my messages.”

“I replied to your messages? Well, I never received your message, nor did I reply to any of your messages.”, He said in confusion.

“Didn’t you receive a message when you were scolding me in front of my desk today?” I reminded him.

“I did a message, but I’m sorry to break your heart; that message was not from you but from a friend, just because it’s my birthday today. I was receiving so many messages today but trusted me, none of them were from you.”, He explained.

God! How could I even come to such an irrational deduction? How stupid I was! Tears dwelled in my eyes when I realized that Jacob was not the person who loved me.

Hold a minute! Why was I crying over the fact that ‘Jacob was not the person who loved me? It was not that I loved him. A tiny amount of feeling grew for him in my heart just because I thought he was that person who used to look after me.

“But…but how is this possible to have so many coincidences?” I asked, more like asking myself.

Jacob reached his hand toward my face to wipe my tears, but I pulled myself away from him. I was already bearing terrible pain after knowing the fact that I was throwing myself at someone else was disgusting to me!

What if…what if I would seriously have kissed him?

God! I would have killed myself doing that!

“Falak…”

“You know HIM? Don’t you?” I asked him and waited to see his reaction.

“Yes!”

“Did he has any idea what I was thinking?” I asked meekly because I couldn’t imagine his pain to see his love throwing herself at someone else.

‘Please say NO. Please say NO. I chanted in my mind. It was not that I wanted to hide anything from him, but I wanted to share this with him on my own instead of what he figured out from somewhere else.

“Yes.”

Shit!

“When you knew that I was thinking it was you, then why didn’t you tell me before? What if…what if I would have…?” I couldn’t gather the courage to complete that sentence.

“No!!”, He quickly answered. “I had no idea about it until now. I mean, I did get a hint from you that that could be a possibility when you came close to wishing me a birthday again, but then Klaus walked in, and that incident skipped my mind. But my doubt got confirmed when you were about to kiss me again.”, He confessed.

Wow! Thank you for reminding me that I tried to kiss you twice!

Could I dig a pit and bury myself in that?

“Who is he?” I asked. “And how do you know him? And how can be so many coincidences? Like same cologue and same birth date?”

“He is…” Jacob was about to tell me the name of the person when his phone rang.

Great timing!

He pulled out his phone from his pocket, and I saw Albert’s name on his screen.

Perfect. Only this was remaining. One more coincidence that, along with my lover, even Jacob knew Albert.

“Put it on speaker.”, I said when he narrowed his eyes. I added, “I want to hear him to confirm my doubt that you are not the one.”

“Fine!”, Saying this, he received the call and kept the phone on speaker.

“Yes, Albert!”

“Sir, Klaus Sir, will end up killing that man tonight.”, He said in a panicked and worried tone.

“WHAT?” Jacob shouted in shock.

“Sir, I tried to stop him, but he was damn too angry, and like an angry beast, he pushed everyone away from the room where that man was locked, and after entering the room, he locked the door and poured all his anger on that man who hurt Falak Ma’am.”

“But why is Klaus behaving like that?” I couldn’t help myself from asking. “I need that man in one piece because only he knows about my parents.”

“Ma’am… Ma’am, only you can handle his anger. I’m too nervous. I don’t know…”

“Don’t panic, Albert! Get the spare key to the room as soon as possible. We’re reaching there in a minute.”, Saying this, Jacob disconnected the call, and I looked at him in confusion, shock, surprised, taking to process what he had just said.

Without taking my permission, he lifted me from the bed and started taking me to god knows where?

“What are you doing? Where are you taking me?”

“I’m taking you near Klaus.”

“But why?”

“Because you can handle his anger.”

“What do you think I am? An iceberg who can handle that fireball.” I asked sarcastically, recalling Klaus’s anger. When his cousin couldn’t handle him, then how could a timid girl like me could do anything?

“Oh, you’re more than that! You’re the only beauty who can handle this beast.”, He said, and by that time, I was already in the room in which Klaus was held firmly by a few people, while Adhiraj was lying almost lifeless, a little away from the Klaus.

When Jacob put me down, I heard the sound of the glass which was under my heels and then looked back to Klaus, who was trying his best to kick everyone’s ass and then would get back to his mission of KILLING Adhiraj.

‘You’re the only beauty who can handle this beast.’, I recalled Jacob’s line.

‘What’s that?

“Sir’s anger,’ I recalled the conversation between Albert and me when I had heard a loud smashing loud of glass or something made of glass for the first time.

‘Actually, I informed him that you are leaving with your friend and because of it you won’t be able to meet him, but before I can get a chance to take my words back and inform him about your change in plan, the call got disconnected. And the next thing I know, his number is switched off.’

‘But there’s nothing wrong in switching off the phone, right?’

When his phone goes dead all of a sudden or calls get disconnected all of a sudden, then it means he broke his phone first and then the other things near him.’

I was feeling dizzy, I didn’t want to walk or stand, but I still did. I still did, gathering all my energy. I promised myself not to fall to the ground before reaching near him. And that’s the moment his stormy grey eyes landed on me.

Immediately he stopped fighting to get out of those men’s control and gave all his attention to me. Seeing Klaus calm, those men let him go. But the moment he started walking toward me, my legs froze; they felt like it was glued to the floor.

A lot of things started coming into my mind, and on top of that, this horrible headache. I closed my eyes to relax myself, and that’s the moment I heard the familiar footsteps!

The footsteps which belonged to him.

And in that room, only one person was walking right now.

“Senorita!”

Forget the word RELAX. I wasn’t even able to breathe in and breath out. I was confident that even my heart missed a beat after hearing that word from the most unexpected person. An arm snaked around my waist, pulling me close to my favorite smell.

‘They were cousins. So might be…’, My mind concluded to clear its confusion while my heart and my body already recognized the only touch which could make me feel comfortable.

“Do I look that bad that you don’t want to open your eyes?”, He asked in a low tone. I tried…I really tried to open my eyes, but I fainted.

I literally fainted in his arms!
