"A-apart from the test you took and me bawling my eyes for half of the day, everything else was fine. Mr. Raivardhan," I stood up to face him, to maintain a little more distance before continuing. I couldn't risk being distracted by him, "c-can we talk?"
"Aren't we?" He stepped closer making me step back. That caused him to narrow his eyes for a split of a second before he recomposed himself but I saw it nevertheless.
"N-not about that... It's a-about my j-job."
"That was where I was heading to," he replied calmly as he took another step towards me and I hit my back to a glass wall when I stepped back. How did I even reach here? He placed his hand on the left of my face, blocking my escape completely.
"I—" he cut me off asking, "how much did he pay you?"
"Pardon?" I look at him baffled. His smooth charming composure dissolved into the cold, stern look.
"How much did he pay you?" He gritted through his teeth.
"What are you talking—" he cut me off by slamming his fist into the wall causing a short scream to escape my mouth.
"Damn it! Don't you dare lie to me! Where is the file? Who did you give it after taking it from here?" He shouted at my face, making me cringe.
I was scared. So very scared...
"I-I don't know what you are talking about," my heart pounded in my chest for a completely different reason now.
"Don't know? Don't know, huh?" He withdrew and stepped back. Grabbing my upper arm, he dragged me towards the stairs. His tight grip over my arm was almost painful, "V-Viaan, what are you d-doing? Please l-let me go!"
He dragged me up the stairs, while I tried to pry his fingers off me but he was just too strong. He continued to drag me around the corner and opened one of the doors opposite to his office before pushing me in.
Grabbing his tie from the sofa, he held me down and started tying my hands behind my back.
"What are you doing? Stop it! Please let me go, Viaan!" I started screaming.
Nevertheless, he succeeded in tying me up by pinning me down on the bed with his knee pressed on my back and was about to tie my feet when the door burst open when I screamed again. Barging into the room, were his three brothers, Neel, Vikrant, and Aaryan, shock evident on their faces.
"Viaan, what are you doing?" Neel was the first one to break the silence as he moved forward.
Viaan stood straighter as he said calmly, "out."
"Brother—" he cut Aaryan off as he shouted pointing at the door, "I said out!"
I got up and ran towards them as they started to move towards the door, "don't please!"
My desperation and fear were evident in my voice but a strong arm snaked around my waist pulling me back as my back hit a hard chest. Viaan's growl vibrated from behind, "don't test my patience."
Aaryan and Neel looked at me with worry as they walked out. Vikrant had already disappeared behind the door without even a hint of emotion on his face. The door shut close as I begged Viaan, "please, just let me go."
"I will when you tell me to whom you gave the file?" Viaan turned me around to face me.
"I didn't give any damned file to anyone!" I shouted as I tried to pull myself away from him but no avail. He clenched his jaws as anger blazed in his eyes. He threw me over the bed for the second time as he fastened my feet securely together with his other tie, threatening, "then stay here till you tell me the truth."
I panicked by hearing his words and started shouting, "help! Someone help please! This guy has kidnapped me!"
He scowled at me as he walked into what I assumed to be his walk-in closet and soon came out holding another tie and a pair of socks. I tried to push myself away from him but it wasn't very successful. He grabbed my leg and pulled me down before shoving the socks into my mouth and fastening the tie around my mouth. I wanted to puke.
"Be grateful that I've gagged you with new unused socks, try something funny then you shall know how my feet tastes," he withdrew back to look at his handiwork. I tried to untie my hands but he sure did know how to tie complicated knots.
"This, what you can see all around you, is not one or two members' hard work. This is the blood and sweat of all five of us, that we achieved after working day and night like dogs," Viaan stretched his arms showing the house around him as he glared at me, "and I'm not going to let you bring us down just like that."
He turned and left me in the room, leaving me to cry my eyes off. It was official, I was a hostage held by the Raivardhan.
