Aarav barely made it to his car. His driver, sensing something was wrong, turned to him with concern.
Driver
Sir, are you—
Aarav Malhotra (ML)
*snaps *Just drive. Home. Now.❄️
The drive felt like hell. Every second that passed, the drug coursed deeper into his system, making his body ache in ways he couldn't control.
By the time he reached his hotel suite, he was barely holding it together. He immediately called his assistant.
Aarav Malhotra (ML)
*gritted teeth* I need an antidote. Now.🥶
Kapir Mehta (ML’s Assistant)
Sir? What happened?
Aarav Malhotra (ML)
*low growl*Someone fucking drugged me. If you don't find an antidote in the next fifteen minutes, I swear I'lI-
Kapir Mehta (ML’s Assistant)
I-I'll get it!
Aarav cut the call and stumbled inside, unbuttoning his shirt halfway, his body screaming for relief. He turned on the AC to full blast, but it didn't help.
His hands trembled as he ran them through his hair.
He needed a distraction. Anything.
A faint sound from the hallway caught his attention. A muffled voice-desperate, panicked.
Then, a scream.
His hazy mind cleared in an instant.
His body moved before he could think. He followed the sound, leading him to a hotel room door slightly ajar. Inside, he saw a woman cornered by a man, her eyes wide with fear.
