𝑽𝑨𝑵𝑹𝑨𝑱 - 𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓

I walked through the hallway of Kainaat's office. It was midnight, and not a single soul was working here except for my busy bitch. My teeth gritted so hard that my jaw ached. Holding a Macallan bottle, I took another shot of whiskey. My eyes squeezed shut for a second as the sore liquid slid down my throat.

My brain felt like it shattered into millions of pieces as I wondered if Kainaat was somehow plotting against me along with Idhvay. Was she distracting me with her pretty pussy while her fiancé destroyed the only thing that mattered to me in this fucking world?

I trusted her, but she betrayed me in a way I could never have imagined, not even in my worst nightmares. All I could see around me was Idhvay laughing at me for being a fool. I wondered if Kainaat was the reason for my pain—the one who kissed all my scars and gave me a new life.

That's why I had trust issues with every woman.

My rage intensified, my veins bursting from the heating flames raging inside my blood when her menacing laugh pierced my ears. She was leaning against her desk, her bare back was facing me. Leaning against the doorway of her office, I took another shot, waiting for her to finish her phone call so I could begin my interrogation.

"I'm the best player, and no one can beat me," she chuckled over the call, saying something else too, but I didn't pay attention to her next words, her earlier ones were still echoing in my head.

"I agree, you're the best player," I growled in a low voice but my voice reached her ears, and she spun around until her green eyes locked with mine. As she stared at me, I couldn't differentiate if I was here to fuck her or kill her.

Maybe I was intoxicated. 

"Baby, I didn't expect you to show up," she said, tossing her phone onto the desk and sitting on it, crossing her legs. Of course, you didn't expect me here, Kainaat—just like I never expected you to stab me in the back. 

Her eyebrow arched as I threw the empty bottle to my left and strode toward her. The creaky sound disturbed the silence of the room. She didn't flinch at my actions—it was nothing new to her.

I roughly parted her legs and stepped between them, my fingers trailing up her arm, gliding to her neck until I gripped her hair, tugging on them and yanking her face toward me. 

"Always so harsh," she murmured, a seductive smile curling on her lips.

"Kai," I whispered, leaning in close as she struggled against my hand, my grip on her hair tightening with each word. "Did you think I wouldn't find out about your pretty lies?"

Kainaat's smile faded, her eyes filled with confusion. "What are you talking about?" My nostrils flared as she tilted up her chin and licked my jaw before pressing a kiss. Earlier, her touch used to turn me on, but right now, it just disgusts me.

But still, I played along. I reached behind my pants and pulled out my gun while my other hand still fisted her hair. Kainaat's eyes widened, her chest rising and falling faster as I put the tip of the gun under her chin. 

"Do you know," I murmured, my lips skimming along her jaw, "what betrayal smells like or how it looks?"

Kainaat stiffened, her lips trembling. "No!" Her eyes screamed that she didn't know what the fuck I was talking about, except it was a fucking lie. She knew it very well.

"No?" I hissed, the devil in me smiling as I leaned closer, my breath brushing against her ear. "Then I'll tell you, mia regina." She attempted to breathe, terror pulsing in time with the rapid pace of her heart as she was nothing but a mouse trapped in my cage.

"It feels like acid that burns every layer of trust," I snarled, pressing the gun to her chest while fisting her nape so tightly she winched in pain. "It looks like you—traitorous, poisonous, and disgusting. And it smells dirty to me." She shallowed hard.

"Raj, I..." she whispered, out of breath. "I can't understand your displeasure." Her feared scent reached my nose. A tiny yelp escaped her mouth when I pulled her head back roughly, fisting her hair, my nose skimming along the creamy expanse of her neck.

"It's not displeasure, it's hatred." I murmured licking the hollow of her neck while trailing my gun down her chest until I dug the tip into her belly. For the record, she didn't flinch, thinking, What if I pulled the trigger? Instead, she stared back.

Damn these green eyes. Don't look at me like that, Kai, or I'll fuck you so hard you can't differentiate between pleasure or punishment.

My jaw tightened in anger, and I pushed her back onto the desk, gripping her throat so tightly she trembled, trying to get enough air for her lungs. Our faces were mere inches apart, and I could hear her racing heartbeat.

"Tell me, baby..." I pointed the gun in her face while leaving her throat. My hand trailed down her chest, slipping between her legs, hiking her dress up, and cupping the space between her thighs. "Was deceiving me always your plan? Or did you decide to stab me in the back when your prince filled your cunt with his cock?"

She flinched at the venom in my tone. "What are you—" I dipped the tip of the gun on her mouth, immediately cutting her off, her brows knitting together in fear. Kainaat shook her head, but she looked at me as if she didn't know me at all. For some reason, she was right. She really didn't know me well.

"I think my bad girl is a liar." She huffed in pain when I gripped her pussy so tightly that my fingers hooked in her thong. She was wet, and I wouldn't be sure if it was my rough touch that turned her on or that asshole who captured her lusty thoughts.

"Answer me, baby," she groaned as my teeth pierced her skin and my tongue lapped at her neck. "Did you think of him every time I kissed you? Every time I fucked you? Tell me, Kai. How many times did you suck him or he suck you?"

Her eyes filled with pain, but I didn't care. And suddenly, I felt as if my words hurt her. She shook her head, her lips parting as if to plead but only to suck my gun deeper. She lifted her hand and cupped my face, and it was shameful to admit that I still fell for the temptation.

"Raj, I didn't—" Her first words as I dragged out my gun. "Don't lie to me!" I roared, my voice thundering through the room. Her flinch was satisfying, but it wasn't enough to quiet the volcano inside me.

I leaned in until my torso pressed hard against her breasts. "Do you have any idea what it feels like when someone breaks your trust? To believe in someone, only to have it ripped away?"

"Or..." I stopped when a tear left her eye.

I hissed before I caged her mouth in a bruising kiss, sucking on her tongue, letting my teeth mark her lips, my nose rubbing against hers whenever I angled my face to deepen the kiss. Kainaat was out of breath when I broke the kiss, pulling my face away slowly, her bottom lip dragging between my teeth until it slipped free.

"So delicious," I whispered, sliding my gun across her cheek until the tip rested beneath her chin. "Your taste!"

"Such a shame," I sighed, removing my gun from her chin and looking at the metal as if I would melt it with my heated stare. I smirked and looked back at her. "This will kill you once." 

I planted my hand beside her head and leaned in, caressing my chin against her cheek. And it would be the biggest lie to admit that her apple scent wasn't drugging me.

"Vanraj..."

"Shhh..." I hushed her, placing the tip of my gun over her lips. 

"Be honest, how many times did you laugh at me when I was sharing my dark secrets with you?" My voice was dangerously calm. "How many times did you make my pain a dinner-table conversation with your fiancé?"

My eyes bored into hers, searching for a flicker of guilt, of remorse. But all I saw was confusion and pain. Pain—ha. The audacity. She was a traitor.

I rolled off her body and stood straight, the gun still in my hand, pointed at the floor now. "You'll regret this," I threatened. "You have no idea what kind of monster you've unleashed." She pressed her bruised lips together.

"You're not sorry yet, baby. But you will be. You seem to forget that just because I treated you like a queen, mia regina, I'm not a nice man. I'll show you exactly what happens to bad bitches." She didn't utter a single word.

"I will show you your right place." I pointed my gun at her. "Prometto, mia regina." (I promise)
