Her Mysterious Lover

Falak’s POV

.

A whole week passed and I didn’t hear anything about HIM from him or Jacob. I sometimes looked at Jacob helplessly but his answer was still the same: ‘he was not the right person to answer my question.’ Only God knew how stressed I was in the recent days with the thought that what if…what if Klaus would change his mind in these days and would be planning to stay with Angela all his life.

That mere thought made me feel heartbroken.

It was not that I would blame him for anything because he could be leaving me to fulfill his responsibilities, so a part of me wanted to hit him for breaking all his promises which he did to me.

But what if he would have other reasons to shut me down?

Whatever the reason could be, he should share with me instead of ignoring me like I was never there. I promised myself that I would give him an earful lecture the moment we would meet again.

It was Monday again, before Jacob could have asked me to break coffee for him. I already brought his coffee.

“Ahhh…Falak!”, He said, when he found me in his cabin, placing his coffee on his table.

“Good Morning, Sir”

“Morning! And thank you for the coffee. I thought you didn’t come to the office today when I didn’t see you at your desk.”

“I was…”

“I already guessed where you were!”, He said, cutting me in between. “Anyway, leave it! I don’t want to forget the reason why I was looking for you.”, He added and unlocked his drawer. I saw him taking out two files from it and then he forwarded them toward me.

“I need the signature of the CEO in these files. So, hurry up and get them done as soon as possible.”, He said, grabbing his seat and picking his coffee’s mug.

“But sir, Klaus sir is not here.”, I responded. I hope he wasn’t expecting me to go to an search mission, find Klaus and get his signature.

“How can you say that without checking this cabin?”, He questioned back. I opened my mouth to reply but soon I understood what he meant to say!

A smile broke on my lips automatically and I nodded my head. “Right sir. I should check him in his cabin first.”, I said before leaving from there. I pressed the button on the twenty third floor happily after reaching the elevator.

It meant he was here.

He was finally here.

I started shaking my butt and jumping inside the elevator out of happiness. Unlike the floor in which I was working which was full of a lot of employees, this floor was almost vacant. I smiled widely when I finally saw Albert. I waved my hand and he smiled back at me.

I always used to enter Jacob’s cabin after knocking the door but because of my excitement I didn’t do anything like that in this case and I sauntered in his cabin without knocking the door. And in no time, my excitement, happiness, smile everything disappeared from my face when I found Angela in Klaus’s arms that too in an intimate way.

They had no idea of my presence because their eyes were not on my side. Angela was sobbing, hiding her face into Klaus’s shirt while Klaus was standing like a statue, with the same unknown emotions in which he used to stare at me before.

This was it?

Was this the end?

Trying to hold the pain in my chest, I closed the door and then knocked it.

Breath IN, Breath OUT.

Breath IN, Breath OUT.

“Come in”, Hearing Klaus’s voice I walked inside and found Angela whipping her tears while Klaus was at his seat. I didn’t want to show any expression right now, so I averted my eyes from Klaus’s face to somewhere else and my eyes landed on his wet shirt.

Breath IN, Breath OUT.

Breath IN, Breath OUT.

‘Relax, Falak!’ I told myself.

I could relax my mind but what about my heart?

“I.. I will take my leave now.”, Angela spoke. “See you later.” and by adding this she left the cabin. Of course ‘he was going to see you all his life now’, My evil mind commented who was pissed at Angela, Klaus, and everyone on this planet.

“Jacob sir sent these files and asked you to sign it.”, I said, forwarding those files toward him. “Even I would like to take my leave, sir.”, I muttered, thinking he would send these files with Albert or someone else in Jacob’s cabin.

“But I didn’t ask you to leave.”, He said, leaving his chair and walking toward me. “You saw everything.”, He didn’t ask this but stated it as a fact. I tried to leave but he held my arms.

“Please let me go, sir.”, I said in a broken voice, controlling myself from crying.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I can’t. I won’t.”

My lower lips quivered and tears dwelled in my eyes, recalling how Angela had hugged him. If he had to choose her at the end then at least he could have shared it with me before. It was not like I would have stopped him.”Why?”, I asked

“What? Why?”

“You finally decided to be with Angela, don’t you? That’s why you were ignoring me from the moment I arrived here after the wedding.”, I gulped the thickness in my throat. “Y.. you could have shared with me and you wanted to END everything between u.. us.” Tears escaped from my eyes and my heart clenched.

“Fuck! Seno…”, He cupped my face and wiped my tears.

“It’s nothing like that. There is nothing going on between me and Angela. Please trust me. It was just a weak moment for her and she just hugged me out of nowhere.”, He explained but my mind was replaying that scene again and again like a repeat telecast. “I want to be with you now and always. I know I acted as an asshole and dumbass for not sharing all the mess in which I was stuck but trust me…trust me seno! I was not ignoring you. I was just…. I don’t know what to say and how to explain. But you’re the only one thing that keeps me sane these days and there is no one in the whole world other than you, whom I want to be with.”. Saying this, he slammed his lips on mine in a slow yet passionate kiss.

I knew I trust him.

I trust his words instead of trusting my own eyes.

I kissed him back with equal passion even to a sane part of mind telling me that it was not right! I shut that part of my brain for a while. I wrapped my hand around his neck, while his hand moved to my waist.

I missed him.

I missed being wrapped around his arms.

Letting out a groan, he deepened the kiss, thrusting his tongue inside my mouth. I moaned as he squeezed my ass. I didn’t know how long we kept kissing each other but the moment he pulled himself away after devouring my mouth, I found myself under him on the couch in his cabin.

I shyly looked at our position and couldn’t imagine the color of my cheeks which it would have turned right now.

“Damian is alive.”, he mumbled, nuzzling his nose against my neck.

“Huh?”, All my shyness vanished within a second when my mind registered his words.

Damian, one of his brothers whom he or say everyone considered dead, was alive.

“Then, it’s good news, right?”, I asked, on which he pulled himself away and helped me to sit on the couch.

“Well, for us! It is but…”

“But?”

“He hasn’t had his memory for the last six months. Though no one has any kind of issue with it but…but the problem is that he has no idea of Angela.”

I gasped hearing that and couldn’t imagine what Angela would be feeling right now! “He just doesn’t recognize her but also said that the baby in her is not his.”

Oh, NO!!!

“And the worst part is that when we conducted a DNA test to make him realize that this baby was indeed his. We got the biggest shock of our life.”

“Please don’t tell me that this baby is not Damian’s.”, I muttered, to which he gave me a helpless look.

“It’s definitely not Damian’s baby.”, He said those words which I was not expecting to hear at all. “For a moment, everyone thought there could be chances that the results were not true. That’s why, we checked the same thing with three different doctors but…”

“What happened next?”

“Damian called her with those names which I couldn’t even say in front of you.”, He responded while I already assumed what his brother would have said to Angela. “And Dad kicked her out the house.”,

Shit!

“And I don’t know what to do with her because I’m stuck with her with this marriage!”, He hissed.

“Klaus.”

“I always hated this girl and now I have one more reason to hate her.”, he said. I opened my mouth to say something when he shut me up by saying “Dare you give me any suggestion about accepting her or anything like that because ONE YEAR. And then I’m done with her.”

“I wasn’t going to say that.”, I muttered. “I was going to ask, ‘did you ask about it with her?'”?

“Yes, I did. And she started crying like a baby and hugged me without even asking me. I swear if she wouldn’t have been pregnant then I would have pushed her away harshly.”

“Can you please calm down?”, I asked softly.

“Only if my girlfriend would do anything to enlighten my mood.”, He replied nonchalantly. “Maybe one more kiss from her would help.”

“Klaus…”

“One ki…”, Before he could say completed his sentence, his phone rang. It was Jacob’s call, he received the call, keeping it on loudspeaker “What’s now?”, He asked in an irritating way.

“If you won’t send your girl within a minute then she’s fired. And if that happens then her parents will take her within a few days instead of three months.”

“You’re so evil.”

“Thanks. I will take that as my compliment. And also, don’t forget to sign the documents which I have sent.”

“Roger that.”, he disconnected the call and gave a perk on my lips before speaking. “Get your dress and hair done while I sign those documents.”

“Hmm”, I nodded my head still thinking about all these which was going on Klaus. He was going through so many things and I wasn’t going to leave him in all this mess. Not now! Not in future!
