Chapter 95 - Kidnapped (5) (2/2)
”Stay away from me,” I wanted to warn him in the sternest tone that I could manage, but all could do was to bit the cloth tied to my mouth as my words came muffled. It did not seem to affect him in any way. His steps did not stop coming towards me. I felt my breathing turning unsteady along with my heartbeat. My eyes watered and they kept being unfocussed.
He covered the distance in two strides and untied the cloth covering my mouth. My body shuddered in fright when he leaned close to me.
”Eshan will find me and when he does, he will not leave you.” I glared at him, trying to put on a mask of confidence and conceal my inner fright.
”Ah, don't talk about him,” he said as he loosened the ropes that were used to tie my hands and legs.
The instant shift in his tone from the formidable one when he had burst out on his own man to this light and somewhat a friendly one as he talked to me - was beyond my understanding. The 360 degrees turn in his actions and behavior startled me. However, I did not lower my guards. The man before me was unpredictable and scary.
Why was he removing the ropes? What was going in his mind?
”Listen, please don't make any attempts to get out of this place, okay? I wouldn't like to do anything that would hurt you,” he told me with a small smile before he walked out of the room.
I did not get a chance to relax when he moved away from me. I did not get a chance to try to run away from this place. His words had completely rendered me motionless. I had seen what he could do to hurt me. He had given me a live demo of what he was capable of when he beat his own man.
The boss, as what they called him, returned within five minutes with a plate filled with a Dosa, Sambhar, coconut chutney, chocolate milkshake, and a pineapple pastry.
'What the hell is going on? Is that food drugged? Does he want to do something-' I did not want to even think in that direction. One thing was clear, the man was not as simple as he was trying to portray himself. He had ulterior motives and it was a matter of time before he showed his true colors.
”Here, eat this.” He placed the plate on the small dining table that was at one corner of the room with two chairs and gestured me to come there. ”It is not drugged. See, I will eat first for you.”
For a moment, I was in a daze. Was I really kidnapped or was I at some friend's place? Why would a kidnapper treat me - so nicely?
”I don't want it.” I denied right at the moment he spoke and averted my furious gaze from him. I did not want to look at him anymore. My fears were lurking around in my mind, and I was not sure, how long I would be able to hold myself together.
