Chapter 9

Author’s pov:

“can you hear me, blossom?” Krish asked keira through the ear piece.

“yeah.” Keira replied while rolling her eyes by the nickname, as she whispered the words.

She should be used to krish calling her like that, yet it still annoys the hell out of her or so she pretends.

“the cameras are still on, I saw you rolling your eyes.” Krish said.

“Then I’m glad Raizadha. Where do I have to go?” Keira asked.

Krish smirked watching keira through the cameras.

“Do you see the reception counter? Ask that guy where Justin Stinson’s apartment is.” Krish said.

“Got it.” Keira whispers.

She lightly adjusted the black coat, taking a deep breath and walked towards the receptionist.

“How may I help you?” the receptionist asked and keira smiled cutely.

“I was sent to meet Justin Stinson, but they didn’t tell me which room belongs to him.” Keira pouted.

The receptionist thought she was adorable.

“Can you tell me where his room is?” Keira asked.

The receptionist thought for a moment.

“I am sorry madam , this is a private information that I can’t share so easily.”

Keira gritted her teeth in annoyance, before faking tears and starting to cry.

The receptionists eyes widened.

“H.Hey, don’t cry.” He looked around to all the people staring at them.

“I-I just h-have to talk to him.” Keira sobbed, covering her eyes with her hands, smirking internally at the way the man was battling with himself.

“Fine, it’s apartment number 812 on floor 5.” The man mumbled and keira looked up, smiling.

“th-thank you so much sir.” Keira said and walks towards the elevator, wiping the tears.

“She’s good.” Abraham said and krish , who was watching everything with eagle eyes just hummed.

“Krish , ready.” Keira gives the signal.

Krish switched his ear piece to the other members.

“Nic,cut the cameras.”he said.

“yes boss .” Nicolas said, hacking the cameras and turning them off completely. All they could see was the view of what keira could see.

“good.Blossom?” he asked, a smirk in his lips.

Keira rolled her eyes once again because of the nickname. “what?”

“where are you?”

“Elevator, just stepping out. Justin is in room 812”

Krish nodded.”take care.” He said.

Keira stiffened lightly by the words, but shook them off. “Thanks, you too.”

Then she knocked at the door and she wasn’t scared at all. She was rather excited. Hema had told her about the disgusting things this man has done, from abusing his daughter, to exchanging woman to get drugs.And keira hated people like this the most, so she was happy she could help.

Soon the door opened, keira leaned against the door frame, looking at the man with hooded eyes.

The man’s eyes widened when he looked at the breathtaking female in front of him.

“Delivery for Mr. Stinson?” Keira said tenderly and the man already felt his sexual urge growing just by the tempting view.

Justin smirked.

“what did I do to deserve this pleasurable meeting?” the man asked and keira smiled, looking up to him through her eyelashes.

“Don’t ask and let me take care of you.” Keira whispered and the man moved to the side excitedly, letting Keira walk in.

Keira cringed at the smell of alcohol. Justin Stinson wasn’t ugly, hell he was handsome, tall, had a great body, yet knowing what he has done made him to the ugliest person Keira has ever get to know.

“what are we gonna do, princess?” the man asked and keira scrunched her nose in disgust,rolling her eyes.

Krish hated the way the man called keira . He hated it, because he’s the only one allowed to call her that.

“All you want, master, where do I have to leave my coat?”

The man growled lightly, when keira put the coat off, revealing more of her tanned legs, giving a better view on her sinful curvy body, her perky *** and super slim waist.

Keira was the epitome of sin.

“Just put the coat on the floor babygirl don’t worry I’ve cleaned the floor, all your clothes will stay clean.”

Keira felt disgusted by the male. “Master , don’t you wanna get yourself ready? Hmm? Don’t make your babygirl wait for you and get impatient.”

“Don’t worry babygirl, I’ll be right back, wait here on the couch for me.” The man went away and keira took the chance to search for the certain document. “Krish?” She whispered and krish responded quickly.

“what is it babygirl?” he mocked and keira rolled her eyes, but also felt shiver ran down her body hearing it from krish.

“I think I got the files, I’ll get out and you do your

“knew this was a fucking trick.” Keira stopped all her moves and turned around.

“Blossom?” “Keira?” “fuck.” Krish’s eyes widened when keira didn’t answer and he heard Justin’s voice.

“Nic, keira’s camera-what’s happening?” Nicolas gulped before speaking. “Boss, hurry up justin’s… near her.”

Hema who watched in horror . Chelsea took the speaker from Nicolas . “ Krish fucking Raizadha if something happens to her I’m gonna kill you!” She dared.

“You brat, hurry up!” Thomas spoke and krish had enough and cut their lines, having only a connection with keira’s earpiece.

“I’m not dumb babygirl.” Justin went over, grabbing Keira by the jaw. Keira squirmed in the man’s hold.

The man grabbed the documents from keira’s hand and grinned looking at them. “who the **** sent you?”

Keira stayed quiet and glared at the man. “oh babygirl , c’mon answer for master.”

The man let go of keira’s face, grabbing her wrists and pinning her against the wall, hands above her head.

“You look delicious, do you know that?” he spoke against keira’s neck. Keira whimpered lightly, before lifting her knee, hitting the man’s balls.

She quickly ran away when the man attempted to palm them, but got caught midway. “Let me fucking go!”

“Why are you here and who sent you?” the man tightened his hold on keira’s arms and keira squirmed. “I am here because of your disgusting activities. Raping, really? And what’s wrong with you ? you raped your own fucking daughter!”

“Blossom, keep it calm.” Krish whispered, hoping the other could hear him. Krish’s voice immediately calmed her down a little, yet Justin was seeing black.

Literally he found keira’s black ear piece.

He growled lowly and pushed her against the couch, Keira lost her balance and fell on the couch. “That’s what you get for messing with the wrong person.” He said, ripping the ear piece away, throwing it to the ground and stepping on it.

Krish’s eyes widened and he tried to stay calm. “Hema, the alarm.” Hema put the alarm on, leading to all staff members of the hotel to ran outside, as this was the emergency alarm. It could only be heard in the first floor though.

“Done, brother.” Hema said.

And without thinking twice, krish ran in, took the stairs, a shoot of adrenaline to save Keira let him walk up effortlessly. He’ll never forgive himself if something happens to keira.

“you thought it’ll be that easy?”Justin spoke into keira’s ear, the female underneath him squirming, trying to escape. “s-stop it!”

Keira was shaking, tears evident now. The fear she suppressed the whole time over now creeping up again.

Justin licked his lips. “such a curvy body, huh. So nice seeing you wrecked under me.” He said, moving his hand along the dip of keira’s waist. The girl whimpered lightly, trying to move away from that man, but couldn’t.

“no babygirl, don’t cry, I’ll take good care of you.” He wiped keira’s tears away. “s-stop, please.” Keira pleaded.

Keira closed her eyes, not wanting to see the male, as she felt him moving his hands more down. She felt hopeless at that point. When she was 15 a teacher tried to harass her but fortunately hema was there and saved Keira and reported the teacher’s action to the management. The school dismissed that teacher. She felt like that’s happening again.

If It wasn’t for a loud bang to echo and make her open her eyes again. Justin stopped too and both looked at the male who was pointing his gun to the ceiling, as he had previously let a shoot out.

Keira’s breath hitched when she looked at krish. She never knew she can be this grateful to see him.

All Krish saw was red at the scenario in front of him .He hated that someone touched keira. He moved his arm down, pointing with the gun towards Justin, who just smirked.

“Let her go.” Krish spoke with a sharp voice.

“And what will happen if I don’t-“ he sat Keira up, now holding a knife against her throat.

Keira took a sharp breath in and he looked at krish with pleading eyes, filled with tears.krish locked eyes with Keira and he felt his heartbeat quickening by the view of the helpless female.

“You won’t hurt her.” Krish said, a low growl under his voice.

Justin clicked his tongue. “come on, just leave and she’ll stay alive, stay and she’ll die. Simple.”

Keira winced when the man tucked on her hair and krish’s hand on the pistole tightened.

“My men are all around this building, Justin. There’s no way you’ll come out alive again, so give up and let the her go!” he said and Justin’s eyes widened.

Keira was by now only feeling numb, but she never moved her eyes away from krish.

“I’ll count to three and if you don’t let her go, I’ll shoot.” Krish said.

“As if you’ll do that.” Justin rolled his eyes.

“You’re right as if I’d do that.” Krish laughed. “I’ll count to only one.”

Justin’s eyes widened and krish smirked at the frightened look the other was giving him.

“You are disgusting.” Krish said and pulled the trigger.

The loud pang of the gun echoed through the whole room, resonating even through the halls, but no one was there to hear it. Except for krish,keira and the probably dead male behind the smaller girl.

As the loud sound reached keira’s ears, a small shriek left her lips, she closed her eyes, cupped her ears with her hands. She felt the weight on her from the disgusting male was gone, his hold loosened, the knife fallen to the ground.

When krish was sure that justin was dead, he put the gun back into his belt, before walking towards keira. “Blossom.” He called out, frowning when the trembling female didn’t move. While rolling his eyes, he reached his hand out towards the female, but the moment keira felt a slight touch on her arm, she flinched away.

“d-don’t touch me!” She said, hiding her face.

Krish raised an eyebrow. “c’ mon we need to go.” The mafia leader took a hold of the keira’s wrist, who immediately pulled away again, a small whimner leaving her pink lips.

“Y-you’ll h-hurt me. E-everyone hurts me.” Keira spoke, leaving Krish to frown.

“c’ mon blossom, we need to leave before anyone sees us.” Krish said, a sharp undertone evident, making keira flinch once more.

“g-go! Y-you will hurt me!” She said. Krish raised an eyebrow and poked his cheek with his tongue.

“I won’t hurt you”

“L-leave me.”

With a deep sigh, krish crouched down, doing the exact opposite thing of leaving keira. He placed his hands on the smaller’s cheeks, forcing her to face him. Keira tried to move away, shaking more, but krish held her on place.

“Hey, hey calm down, look at me.” He whispered, but keira still hectically tried to wriggle out of his hold, whimpers leaving her lips, tears rolling down her cheeks.

“Keira, please, it’s me krish.” Keira hears the words, yet in front of her was still the disgusting man Justin. Not krish, not anyone else.

Krish was persistent though and slowly wiped some tears that were rolling down the keira’s cheeks away.

That was when keira felt it-the difference.Justin had wiped her tears too, his hands were rough and felt disgusting on her skin. The ones who just wiped her tears away were soft, the touch barely there, but keira could feel it lingering on her warm skin.

Her breathing evened a little, her chest heaving up and down slower.

“Do you recognise me?” Krish asked quietly and keira finally opened her eyes and stared into krish’s. It were barely ten seconds, but it felt like an eternity that their eyes were locked.

Krish searched for something in the younger’s eyes that assures him; yes she recognises him.But the next thing happened too unexpected for krish to follow, so he was perplexed for a minute or so.

Because keira was hugging him.

“K-krish.” Keira cried quietly into keira’s neck and the older was still looking bewildered at nothing in particular.

Krish can’t stand Keira crying.

He likes Keira’s presence. He likes the feeling of having her near.

So he hugged her back. “It’s okay, blossom, you’re fine.” He whispered quietly and his breathing hitched when Keira tightened her hold.

“Keira put your coat on, we’ll leave here yeah? I will bring you back to Thomas.” Krish said and Keira nodded, slowly letting go of krish and the girl almost whimpered because she didn’t want to let him go.

Was it because krish made her feel secured? Safe? Warm?

Keira shook her head. Even if krish had hold her, reassured her , made sure she was fine just now- she can’t forget that the black clothed male is the reason She is here in first place. Her kidnapper to say the least.

“Blossom?” Krish asked when the younger didn’t move and keira looked up, finding krish holding the coat for her. She quickly looked away, just took the coat and put it on.

“thank you.” She said and got up, but stumbled a little as her legs seem to give up. Krish was quick to steady her. “are you alright?” he asked, one hand around keira’s waist, the other holding his shoulder.

Keira looked at krish with no emotion and pushed his hands away. “I’m fine.” She said monotony. Her eyes fell on Justin’s lifeless body and she shuddered lightly, quickly averting her gaze somewhere else. “can we leave please?”

Krish nodded, confused by keira’s behavior. He thought when Keira hugged him… she wanted it. But who would want to hug her kidnapper? So what was krish expecting when for one second he thought keira hugged him because she wanted it, not because she did it out of the situation. She needed something to hold on in the moment, krish was there, so he was the one getting hold onto. No strings attached.

Krish turned to Keira , an angry frown plastering his face as he turned his ear bud on and contacted Thomas. “Thomas?”

“You fucking asshole! Where is Keira and how can you cut off the connection in a situation like that?!” the mafia boss wasn’t scared by his friend’s words. He didn’t even care.

“She is fine, Justin’s dead though and someone has to take care of the body.”

“Gosh, I would’ve killed you if something happened to keira.”

Krish sighed. “sure you would. Now bring someone here, we’re getting out.”

He turned his ear bud off and looked to keira who was hugging her own body, lost in thoughts.

“Blossom?”

“it’s keira. Just call me Keira please.” Keira closed her eyes, gritting her teeth. No, she doesn’t want krish to stop calling her that and she had slight hope krish would say the same thing as she thinks.

“I don’t care what your silly name is and I call you what I want, you hear me? You got to tell me nothing.” Krish said.

She wanted him to say that again, so she has an excuse to let him call her by that pet name.

But krish just huffed this time. “fine. Keira.”

Krish didn’t say anything else and walked out, keira opened her eyes, then trailed behind him. No words were exchanged.

“oh my god, keira I was worried sick!” Hema ran to her best friend, hugging her tightly, when they all successfully returned from their mission. Chelsea did the same .

Keira hugged back with a smile. “I’m fine.”

“Girl, you fucking scared us.” Nicolas chuckled and keira smiled sheepishly.

“I’m glad you are back keira.” Molly said and patted her hair.

“ You guys go and freshen up I will go make something for you guys” molly said and left to kitchen.

“I won’t let you take my baby to anymore missions with you , brother.” Hema said, holding her finger up in front of krish , squinting her eyes at the latter.

Keira looked to krish, finding the man already looking at her, so she quickly looked away, cursing at herself for blushing.

Krish didn’t look away though, eyes glued to his blossom.

“No one is gonna touch her. Ever again.” Krish said anger spitting in his voice.

Keira felt his whole body bath in warmth by Krish’s words. Shee was expecting a “it’s her own fault” or at least a “I won’t take her with me, she’s only a burden” – but never… this. But never had anyone of them thought that krish will say something like that to someone he barely knows.

Never had anyone of them ever expected krish to sound possessive over a person.

Everyone looked to keira then, who just looked down. She was feeling uncomfortable, felt like wanting to disappear in the exact moment.

“okay this is awkward , Let’s go to our rooms” Nicolas said to lessen the tension.

“yeah, I’ll come with you.” Abraham said, running after him.

“And we need to talk.” Chelsea and hema said in the exact moment to keira. Keira looked up, to them with a sheepish smile, before hema took her hand and dragged Keira with her. Chelsea looked to krish, shook her head and went after the girls.

“Krish.” Thomas ripped the mafia boss out of his thoughts. “we need to talk too.”

“did justin touch you?” Hema asked Keira, who just nodded. They’re in keira’s room, wearing comfortable clothes and sitting on the bed. “Gosh I’m glad he doesn’t get to set a step on this planet anymore.” She scoffed.

“Krish was there before he could do something serious.” Keira said and shrugged.

“you must be terrified.” Chelsea said quietly and keira lowered her head. “In that moment, yeah, but no. I’m already used to it. I thought of my past” Keira said.

“don’t think of that pervert.” Hema rolled her eyes and keira chuckled.

“He also touched me . It just trigger my fear.” Keira said while looking at them .

“I’m sorry keira, this won’t happen again.” Chelsea said and hema smirked.

“yeah because my heartless brother krish has become possessive over you.” Hema said and nudged keira’s shoulder and Chelsea grinned at keira’s red cheeks.

“what is it keira? What happened?” Chelsea continued to mock. The poor girl tried to keep a stern face.

“nothing happened he just shoot him before he could undress me.” Keira said.

Hema rolled on her tummy, head resting on her hands. “aaaand then?”

Keira remembered the hug, it was a simple hug, but she felt so much in it. “nothing happened then.”

“you seemed to be thinking about something though.” Chelsea lay her head on hema’s back. Keira sighed. “I hugged him. But it was out of the situation.”

Hema and Molly’s eyes widened. “WHAT?!” they quickly sat up. “yeah, but it was just a hug, nothing special.”

“did he hug you back?” Hema asked impatiently. “i-euhm yes” Keira said (and it felt good: she thought)

“he hugged you back?!” Chelsea asked bewildered. “that’s what I said.” Keira rolled his eyes. “it’s just a hug, calm down and it was out of the situation.”

“ Plus we have hugged before it’s no big deal. I am sleepy. Gonna sleep . “ Keira said and slept.

“ Our ship is sailing” hema and chelsea squealed .
