As soon as Zaroon stepped out of the car, his gaze met with the humble looking man in his 50s but Zaroon knew better. His enchanting sea green eyes darkened instantly but controlling his inner burning desire to kill this man, he walked towards him. His mere presence brings off a air of mystery and fear, he was born with the arrogance in his blood to begin with.

His every step was an unknown pressure on Raheel Ahmed khan's shoulders. His single expressionless yet death gaze was enough to make Mr. Khan's legs wobble. His entire self was trembling with an invisible force but he walked towards Zaroon with an nervous smile on his face.

"G-greetings Mr. Hamdaani" he stuttered a bit but still forwarded his hand. Disgust flashed across his emerald eyes and ignoring his hand he stared at him hard. Slight change of expression appeared on Mr. Khan's face but still there was a polite smile playing on his lips. He curled his hand back and gestured Zaroon inside the Mansion.

Stepping inside, Zaroon observed the whole hallway in one glance and a sly smirk pulled up on his lips. The servants slightly bowed infront of Zaroon in a form of greeting and walked away as Raheel gestured them away.

As soon as Zaroon sat on the sofa, he felt a weird feeling washing over him. It was like his heart was clenched and was in so much pain. He frowned and looked here and there to find the reason for this unknown feeling but to his utter disappointment he found nothing.

He calmed his internal havoc and straightened his back against the sofa, placing his one leg on another royally "It's my honour to have you at my house Mr. Hamdaani" Raheel started nervously and Zaroon just hummed in response "Hmm"

This was very insulting for Raheel but infront of this man, he was way too inferior and all he could do right now was to gulp down this insult.

Total of 10 men in black were standing in an order behind Zaroon and his assistant John was standing at the some distance beside Zaroon. He gave a subtle glance at John and getting the cue, John sat down beside Zaroon. In no time, Tea was served and the table was filled with different variety of snacks. There was a sneer in Zaroon's dark green eyes.

The reason why Raheel couldn't recognize Zaroon as the son of Yuhaan was that Yuhaan had never revealed the faces of his children to public and most importantly Zaroon offered the collaboration from his own company not from Yuhaan's company.

Right now Yuhaan's company was managed in Ayzal's strict supervision. No one knew how many children Yuhaan Hamdaani actually had. It was never publicly revealed for the protection reasons.

Zaroon took the cup from table and sipped it slightly. Raheel took a sigh of relief looking at Zaroon and took the file from his assistant who was standing beside him silently. He forwarded the file infront of Zaroon who placed the cup back after taking only a single sip from it. The tea wasn't worth it!

Zaroon arched his one eyebrow at Raheel and gave a side glance at John. John nodded to himself and said "Boss would like to use washroom" It's been 5 years since John is with Zaroon as his P.A so till now he is aware of his boss's every action.

Raheel felt insulted yet again but nodding at Zaroon, he placed the file on the table "Take Mr. Hamdaani to the guestroom" Raheel ordered one of his headmaid and passed a smile towards Zaroon.

As they got to the second portion of the Mansion, headmaid was walking ahead unknown that Zaroon stood frozen on his feets looking at someone. A girl was claded in a white suit, her head was covered with a white duppata «Scarf» and she was sitting on a prayer mat offering prayer. Although her face was hidden and only her back was faced towards Zaroon but still he was entranced by her serenity.

Just as he decided to take a step forward towards her, a voice broke his trance "Sir! A-are you okay"? A frown was instantly formed on his face and without giving an answer to headmaid, he walked ahead but unknown to him as soon as he walked away, the girl turned her face towards the door.

She frowned as she saw no one and pursed her cherry lips in an thin line thinking that she surely felt a strong presence behind her just now. She sighed softly and pulled up her hands to make a dua.

But unknown to her, as calm as she was, someone was extremely restless. Zaroon was feeling anxious for no reason and that was making him angry. After washing his hands, he walked out of the washroom and saw terrace. Thinking for a second he walked towards it, sliding the door aside he stood by the railing.

He pulled out a cigar and liting it, he inhaled sharply before puffing out the smoke with darkened eyes. He took his time to have cigar then walked out with an expressionless face but as he opened the door of the room, he saw the headmaid waiting for him patiently.

He instantly passed her a death glare before spatting out angrily "Get lost" she nodded her head despite the fact that she was very scared of this mysterious man. Walking away she was only thinking one thing that she didn't did anything to offend this man than why was he so angry?

Zaroon closed his eyes to calm himself down and started walking towards the staircase. Just as he was going to take a step down the stairs, he stopped as a beautiful voice of anklets tickling against eachother resounded in his ears.

He took a step back and just as he turned someone as soft as a willow bumped into his shoulder and was going to fall backward in the stairs but a rough yet hard hand grasped her slender porcelain wrist. Her beautiful silver eyes slightly widened and her cherry lips parted as she gasped in surprise.

A magical trance was formed as jade met grayish graphite eyes. The time was lost in itself as it felt like the surroundings were gone. Just these two with their accelerated heartbeats were seen in eachother's eyes. A single moment of seconds felt like an eternity as he pulled her weightless body in his safe embrace wrapping his arms around her petite waist.

A low gasp was heard beside his ears as her hot breath fanned against his neck and her eyes clashed against his yet again. Her arms were automatically circled around his neck and her long black hairs got scattered on his shoulder. A unique lavender fragrance wafted straight to his nose that made his hold tightened on her waist.

He didn't blinked from the second his gaze met hers. He was taking in her every little expression. She was no doubt exquisitely beautiful as she was bare face without any kind of makeup. Cloudy eyes, long curly eyelashes, perfectly trimmed eyebrows, straight nose with a gold nose pin adorning her nose and her cherry lips were the most appealing part of her face. She was the sight for the sore eyes.

She was simply stunning!

Soon her soft features were exchanged with fear. She slowly undid her arms from his neck and attempted to take a step back but Zaroon never for once let her get away. She frowned awkwardly but she was too scared to say anything. He was the first ever man, who made her scared with his beautiful face. As much as he was handsome, he was a scary man because of the aura he was emitting. He was powerful, very powerful she estimated.

"Your name"? His beautiful and magnetic voice resounded between their entangled heartbeats. His voice held so much power that she curled her fingers in fear and fluttered her beautiful eyes down "R-Ruhh....." She was so scared that she even forgot to voice out her own name.

His eyes squinted ever so slightly but he masked it well and mumbled "Rooh it is!" She instantly shooked her head saying "N-no! It's R-ruhena" but all he did was, nodded his head repeating his words "Rooh It is!" she was dumbfounded at his words.

He softly pulled her away from the stairs and making her stand properly away from the staircase, he walked downstairs with his beautiful green but darkened eyes. The anger beneath them was creating a havoc between his mind and heart. A straight up war!

His expressionless face was wrapping up the most mesirable state he was in now but Ruhena was left dumbfounded on her place.

'Who was this man'? She nervously pushed some of the hair strands behind her ear as her innocent gaze lingered where his overpowering figure faded off. Sighing softly she tried to calm her raged heartbeat. A while ago, she was looking straight ahead but a pearl caught her attention, she picked that up and started walking ahead examining the white pearl in her hand but this little pearl was the cause of the disastrous meeting with that scary man.

She took a deep breath but a image of beautiful yet scary man appeared in her mind. She shooked her head making her way downstairs. She was dressed in a white long gown which reached till her ankles where gold anklets were adorning her beautiful porcelain feets.

**********

As he walked downstairs, his eyes darkened. Zaroon very well knew the identity of that very girl who was in his arms a while ago and that was the reason he was angry. He was frustrated, restless, anxious, somewhat sad but most of all he was angry....at himself because he was well aware of her identity being the beloved daughter of Raheel Ahmed khan yet he felt a weird feeling surging up in his chest the second he held her wrist.

He for the first time felt weak infront of her. He will not admit it and just to prove himself wrong he will do the worst. Making up his mind to prove himself wrong, an evil idea popped up in his mind. Unknown to him, his future has different plans as he was going to lose a big time. He will regret this but it will be too late redeem the wrongdoings.

"The deal is off" Zaroon announced as soon as he walked in the hallway. His loud and authoritative voice resounded in the hallway. Raheel was frozen in his place even John looked stunned because this wasn't in their plan. The real plan was, they decided to give him everything he wanted then they will kill him in slow death by taking each and everything from him "W-why"? Raheel stuttered totally frightened because this deal was very important for his company to progress.

"I want something else from you" Zaroon's straightforward words left no room for confusion but Raheel was very confused "Your daughter" Zaroon dropped the bomb on Raheel as he abruptly stood up from sofa.

"What did you just said"? Anger was visible in Raheel's tone but that only made Zaroon's smirk widened "I want to marry your one and only daughter....Rooh!.....Ruhena!"

"It's impossible" Raheel firmly rejected and Zaroon's desire to destroy him intensified "Then make it possible!" this time it wasn't an answer, it was an order.

"I want an postive answer by tonight and if not......" His murderous gaze met Raheel's panic stricken face and he continued "Then don't blame me for being ruthless" saying this Zaroon walked out with John and his all bodyguards followed him. The threat in Zaroon's tone awoke the fear.......fear of death. He knew how powerful Zaroon Hamdaani was and his every word was the unsaid promise because he never wastes his treasured words on anyone.

According to Zaroon what was more painful for a father to see his beloved daughter broken and crying. The crying face of Ayzal, Zimal and husniyah came infront of his eyes.

He will pay back 100 folds! He wanted to give what he got and the promise in his eyes said it all.
