He grabbed hold of the cloth's edge as he was about to turn around and within a span of a second, he removed it so skillfully that his face remained unseen as he turned to collide with me.

"Bastard," Aaryan grumbled under his breath, annoyed. Vikrant switched back to the previous footage to stop at the point he was looking directly at the camera before entering into a room, sometime after colliding into me. Vikrant zoomed his pic to find him winking at the camera. His light colored eyes showed victory, the white cloth back on his face covering his features.

"Dammit!" Neel slammed his fist over the table in frustration making me jump in my place. His eyes softened a bit making him apologize to me.

"What do you remember about him?" Viaan's voice demanded my attention. He needn't tell me who he was referring to. I thought hard about the suspicious stranger that I had run into, "I didn't get to see his face but he was clothed in a royal blue three-piece suit. He had this different, manly kind of cologne that anyone could easily distinguish. Like those," I clicked my fingers together to find the describing words that was at the tip of my tongue but not coming through.

"Signature perfumes?" Aaryan supplied.

"Yeah, signature perfumes," I nodded vigorously at him before continuing, "he was really tall and had a good physique. You can say ripped torso. He screamed hotness! I wouldn't doubt if all the girls fell at his feet for that personality. And his brooch and cufflinks were similar looking, with the chains like the one you picked. It was a intricately designed with a beautiful pattern."

"It sounds like she is describing her favorite crush. You don't satisfy her in the bedroom, brother?" Vikrant sat back smirking at me earning a scowl from me.

"If she gives this description to the CBI, the entire agency will die laughing," Viaan’s lips had a slight upturn making me growl lowly. Neel coughed trying to cover his laughter as for Aaryan, he was sniggering openly.

"So you are telling that I describe funnily?" I asked them irritated.

"More of a useless way. What am I supposed to do? Take you to everyhotmale and let you sniff them like a dog? Not a chance. And as if that would even work with you involved," Viaan shook his head turning back to face the screen. Aaryan was doubling over laughter as Neel now chuckled openly. Vikrant had an amused smirk plastered on his lips while my scowl only intensified.

"Vikrant, trace down all his footage. Let's have a look at his activities," Viaan ordered completely ignoring me who was simmering beside him. I opened my mouth to bash him verbally but something else beat me to it. A beeping alarm on all the Raivardhans' smartwatches grabbed the attention. The red light blinked with a little fire symbol.

"The fire alarm on the sixteenth floor has been activated," Neel announced looking at his gear making dread sweep into my body. The sixteenth floor was on fire, on my reception night? My heart dropped.

What shocked me further was Viaan's words that left his mouth, "Vikrant, lock all the doors of the places where the fire alarm has gone off."

"What if there are people trapped inside those rooms with fire blazing?" I exclaimed in panic.

"Vikrant, lockdown the entire floor, leave no chances to escape," Viaan ignored my question giving another order.

We were doomed! Definitely doomed with Viaan around...

25. PACHCHEES

Ijust stared at him in shock. I couldn't believe what he ordered! He MUST be joking!

"You are kidding, right?" I asked incredulously. And when he didn't even care to acknowledge my question, my panic exploded in the form of rage, "Oh my gosh! You ARE serious! What are you? A sadist?"

While I was busy drowning in my panic, Viaan signaled Neel and Aaryan making them immediately rush out of the room. I turned to Vikrant who had a lazy smirk on as he continued to type like a pro typist on his laptop. Not even I could type that fast.

"Vikrant, don't you dare do what he says," my words made him stop for a moment as he looked at me amused making me continue, "Be a better judge of the situation and behave more humanly than your sadist, psychopath of a brother."

I could feel Viaan's eyes glare into the side of my face while Vikrant's eyebrows shot up, on hearing my words. Vikrant leaned away from the laptop making me breathe out in relief.

At least one out of these two was more sensible.

What I didn't notice was Vikrant's forefinger hovering over the enter key, which deliberately pressed the key slowly just for a show when I finally did notice it, stopping my heart for the moment.

He gave me a sarcastic smile with an, "Oops!"

He reminded me so much of Mayank's annoying cat that used to do all the things it was told not to. I don't know where my anger was brewing, in my blood or literal hell. I had no idea but I so badly wanted to let it loose over this jerk brother of the jerk. Balling my hands into fists, I pounced forward wanting to beat Vikrant to death. But all my plans were sabotaged when a strong arm wound around me like a vice holding me back to a rock hard chest.

"Let go of me, I shall end this today! God help me! I swear I am going to murder all of these jerks tonight, and I know for a fact that it wouldn't even be counted as sin for killing devil reincarnates!" I was yelling at the top of my voice, wrestling against Viaan's hold.

And the result? Tell me, have I ever succeeded against this obnoxious beast? I think so not, except for the fact that he was not at all obnoxious to look at.

To hell with this man, his handsome face, sexy ass, and herculean strength! Really to hell! Or maybe this was the hell since he was the devil himself?

I stopped my attempts to get away and sulked folding my hands across my chest. For the first time, I heard Vikrant snigger. It was deep and rich just like him, it just annoyed me further.
