Obsessive Flames of Love

2nd September

Rudra was in his cabin, finalizing a few of the prominent documents about his upcoming dealings when a knock came by. Without lifting his head, his stern voice said, “come in.”

“Boss.”

“Hm.”

“Ms. Tanvi sent an email.”

“Okay.”

Maahir remained dumbfounded and frozen in place, “I thought she is important to him? Is she not?”

“What name did you say?” A voice caught Maahir’s back.

“It’s Ms. Tanvi, Boss.”

Hearing her name, Rudra paused and lifted his head with widened eyes. An amused look danced on him. “I’ll look into it.” Maahir nodded and left.

In an instant, Rudra logged into the email and opened the one sent by Tanvi.

Greetings to the President,

I am Tanvi Siara Agarwal, BlockChain Project head representing on behalf of Umbro Technologies. My apologies if I had crossed my limits in emailing you, but I sincerely request you to watch the presentation.

Since I hadn’t got a chance to present it to you directly, I propose it will help The Chauhan Group of Companies data security at a much-advanced level. This type of new software design is entirely new in the market, and we would love to launch this in collaboration with The Chauhan Group of Companies.

The Chauhan Group of Companies has immense power and connections in the industry, which will shove various exceptional paths to this latest development. It benefits both companies since it is the new revolution.

I truly anticipate the collaboration with the Sign-off from this project.

Thanks and Regards,

Ms. Tanvi Siara Agarwal

Program Analyst and Design Engineer

Operation Head in BlockChain

“She indeed had good negotiation skills.” A dainty smile appeared on his lips. “What else do you possess, Tanvi? You are showing one at each time, and I’m becoming engrossed in you.”

“I’m pretty sure, even If this is the first time I’ve heard of you, you will succeed in convincing me with your unique style.” He thought and crossed his legs with a hand on his chin, “Shall I reply to her?”

“You must. Since it’s Tanvi.” His inner voice roared, and he succumbed to it. He wondered, “How long it had been since I listened to it? More than twenty years?”

“Okay, whatever. Let me do this.”

Tanvi sat in her chair with an anxious expression on her face. Sweat forming on her forehead while her palms and foot were becoming wet, “Did it went well? How did he react? Did I stepped on my boundaries?”

“I’ve heard he is quick, effective, and ruthless. How did my email appear to him?” A knot was formed in her stomach with the burning uneasiness.

“Ugh. I’m unable to focus on other works. What if he gets angry and canceled the project?” Her mind went wild imagining the worst possible scenario when her screen lit up with an email.

With slight shivering of her hands, she was about to open but halted. Rubbed her hands and blew some air onto her tiny palms, “come on, Tanvi. The presentation was good. He won’t behave like crazy.”

She took a deep breath while her one hand rested on her raising chest, and clicked the email with the other. “Woah! I got a reply from Mr. Chauhan.”

“Wait, did he reply to me? Why would he? It might be his assistant?” She asserted, but it sounded more like a question to herself. “Anyhow, let me check it out.”

“Aw!! He agreed to the deal. That’s great news, dude.” She squealed in surprise when her eyes beamed with happiness.

After a few minutes, “shall I send a reply to that? Is it needed?” She bit her nails out of frustration, “Huh! I never felt this helpless in my work.” With that, she sent another email and the day went by quickly.

…

Rudra was in his study attending a video conference regarding ‘Opulent interiors,’ which was a famous international brand for a seven-star hotel interior designing.

Since the construction of ‘IRC Atlantis’ was being handed to The Magenta Builders, the process resumed at a quicker pace. Without making any further delay, he was making all the amends to make it complete as early as possible.

Glanced at his Rolex oyster perpetual watch, 02:00 AM, “the conference went by two hours?” he blinked his curved eyelashes and leaned on the headrest.

“You tried to challenge me by stopping this?” Rudra mocked Diana guts, “in your dreams.” he asserted in ridicule.

“These days, you were crossing your limits more often? When will you learn to accept your place, Diana?” Adrenaline rushed into his veins with her continuous pestering.

“If you’re not the daughter of Daniel Bhatt, then your fate would be much different since you won’t be brave enough to provoke me.” Anger boiled up to his chest when his fists were intuitively clenched and left to his bedroom.

Rudra fixed a meeting with a few landlords to acquire the best land for the construction venture of villas, which he’s planning for quite some time. Since they were influential figures, he personally went to interact with them.

He arrived at their reservation in the Oberoi hotel at their decided time, 11:00 AM, but they weren’t present. An infuriated expression appeared in his eyes because he doesn’t tolerate people with no punctuality.

Pulled a beige cushiony wooden chair, took a deep breath and occupied it. It became 11. 10 AM, yet there’s no trace of them. He’s tapping his feet impatiently while racking his hair when his eyes turned the darkest shade of cold.

“This is a sign of disrespect.” A volcano of rage was building up in him with each passing second. Finally, at 11. 15 AM, the group of three people appeared without a bit of regret for their behavior.

The meeting went by, and it didn’t end well. They were about to leave when his menacing tone stopped them in their tracks. “This isn’t the end of it.” With that, Rudra left while leaving them in sheer terror.

…

Inside the cabin, Maahir and Tamaz were waiting for Rudra.

“Did you know Ms. Tanvi?” questioned Maahir in a calm tone.

“I heard about her.”

Maahir nodded, “she came here.”

“What? When?” Baffled Tamaz, his eyes popped out of curiosity while staring at Maahir.

A chuckle escaped his plump lips, “she is the upcoming project head from Umbro Technologies.”

“Ooh! That’s a big twist. Did he address her?”

“Nope.”

Sighed Tamaz, “it’s a pity.” After a pause, “Did he know about it?”

“Yes, I informed.”

“It means they were going to encounter frequently?”

“I guess.”

“I need to find out whether he is bluffing or…”

“He isn’t fooling. I’m sure he got intrigued.”

“Did you seen it?”

“Yes. I had noticed a slight change of emotion in his eyes around her presence.”

“Wait. Did they meet elsewhere?”

“At Taj Mahal Palace. Just a glance, though.”

“That’s good. At least he has one to make him realize what he’s lacking.”

Maahir nodded when Rudra’s voice echoed from behind, “What am I lacking?”

They jerked while holding their breaths by hearing the familiar voice. Listening to his tone, “It’s not a good sign,” they made a mental note. “We will be dead if he eavesdropped our conversation.”

Maahir felt his legs went weak when a terrifying look replaced Rudra’s eyes. “What should I realize?” His voice became much authoritative.

They stiffened, and words weren’t coming out of their mouths without knowing how much Rudra had heard.

Rudra sat in the swiveling chair and gazed at the two people who were totally rooted to their places like statues. “I’m already frustrated enough. Now, they were making me more irked?” He thought.

“Were you deaf? I need an answer.” Slammed on the glossy table when they felt their hearts sank. Even Tamaz won’t dare to cross his limits in office, though they were best friends, because Rudra is as powerful as ever, let alone Maahir.

“Um. Boss! We were having a casual talk.” Maahir tried to reason with him in his usual tone, but who he is to get convinced this easily.

“Did you think I couldn’t see through your lie?” By now, Rudra’s patience is running on thin ice when his nose turned red.

“It’s about the latest project with Umbro Technologies.” Tamaz blurted in a flat tone, “it would be our last choice to escape.” A glint of hope appeared in their eyes.

Rudra sighed in displeasure, “You were trying to lie to me?”

Tamaz stepped back dumbfounded. Not wanting to anger him anymore, Maahir said, “No, Boss. It’s about Ms. Tanvi.” Maahir didn’t look into his eyes and stared at the marble floor.

“Out!!! Both of you.”
