Chapter 52: Chapter 52

"I told you always to stay away from these fights. But it seems you are always in the mood of disobeying my rules. Don't you?", Damian roared in anger turning himself to face Stella who was looking down in fear.

Damian was busy staring Stella who was looking down on the floor as if there was something interesting there which made her eyes stuck on the floor. Waiting for her reply Damian finally sat on the couch.

"Did you really stuck your mouth with Fevicol or something?", Damian questioned getting impatient.

"Umm... N.. Noo Boss.", Stella stuttered in fear.

"Then speak something dammit or are you waiting for me to hold the gun aiming you to get some reply from your mouth? ", Damian roared in his angry voice.

"Do you really think just because I am a girl I can't handle the attacks, the gang or myself alone?", Stella asked finally breaking her long time silence.

"Just because I am a girl it really doesn't mean I can't handle everything on my own. And I am not disobeying your rules. Infact, I was following the rules made by you where you clearly mention that never run like a coward when an enemy attacks on you. It does not matter if you have weapons or not just fight till your last breath. Incase you die, you don't have any regret or any label of coward on you. So I was just doing that.",Stella explained looking straight into Damian's eyes.

"Stupid girl. Did she really think I can question her fighting skills, bravery and loyalty towards my gang? But I can't tell her the reason behind my restrictions towards her that I don't want to keep her life in danger otherwise, she would start having feelings for me which I really don't want right now.", Damian thought to himself in his heart.

His eyes never leaving Stella's eyes.

" It's not always you have to use your brain. Sometimes you should follow my rules without having any second thoughts or question in your mind because I am your Boss not you are mine.", Damian ordered and leave the place without waiting for her reply.

"Do you really think I will follow your rules and regulations when it comes to your life, Damian?... Never, till the time I am alive I will always protect you. Maybe I will never get a chance to show you my feelings but without saying anything I will always show you how much you mean to my life, Damian. ", Stella talked to herself seeing Damian's retreating figure.

" After so many days finally you got the time here to have some conversation with us. ", Alexia informed pouring the wine in Neil's glass.

" Mom, you know very well how busy and hectic my schedule are these days. It is not easy to manage everything once at a time. I don't know how Abeer brother was handling all this together. ", Neil complained to his mother like a small child taking glass from her.

" Mark my words son, you won't get this golden chance in future or anytime where you have to face no hurdles like Abeer in your path to become the great Mafia king who has everything, name, fame, power and money. So don't you dare to leave any chance to regret. Don't forget son we have to take our revenge from this family who threw us on footpath without any mercy. And for that you have to work hard. ", Alexia reminded Neil taking a sip from her glass.

" You did not have to remind me this everytime Mom. I remembered everything and I will use this opportunity to take our revenge from them. ", Neil said smirking.

The trio enjoyed a lot playing games, watching series when Christian finally slept on the couch due to his over drinking leaving Abeer and Khushi awake alone.

" Umm.. I think now we should also sleep and take some rest as morning will happen soon.", Khushi suggested clearing the table which became dirty and taking glasses and plates into the washing basin leaving Abeer alone there.

"Yeah.. We will sleep but not before apologising to you for my rude behavior because I can't sleep with that guilt on my heart.", Abeer confessed in his heart.

"Huhh.. What does he think of himself seriously? I am not going to talk to him after that argument but he also did not make any effort to get things clear.", Khushi complained cleaning the utensils in the kitchen.

After finishing her work she turned to leave when she bumped into Abeer who was standing behind her for god knows how long!

"Ouch!.. You.. You scared the shit out of me. How long you were here, standing behind me?", Khushi questioned in her complaining voice.

"I am sorry for scaring you like that. I have no intention of it. I was just waiting for you to finish your work and get free.", Abeer informed taking a step back.

"Free? For what?", Khushi questioned being confused.

"To apologise for my mistake which I committed in the evening. Khushi, I am really very sorry for my rude behavior. Please forgive me. I promise I will never do this again. Please forgive me this time.", Abeer apologised with his pleading eyes and concern filled voice.

" It's okay. I will forgive you this time but don't make it a habit as its Christmas today so I can't see someone sad because of me. And I really don't want any fight or sadness around us. So I am forgiving you this time. But dare you do something like this next time then get ready to face the consequences.", Khushi warned glaring at Abeer.

" I will remember your warning Ma'am so don't worry from my side and thank you so much for forgiving me. Now I can also sleep peacefully like Chris. ", Abeer said smilingly.

They both went towards the living room where Christian was sleeping peacefully on the couch.

" Umm... You go and sleep on the bed. I will put the mattress down here and sleep. ", Khushi pointed the floor next to the couch.

" No way... I can't leave you here alone with him.", Abeer confessed out of nowhere making Khushi shocked.

"What? What do you mean?", Khushi questioned being confused.

"I.. I mean it's not safe to sleep here. What if drunken Christian in his dream started throwing things on you assuming you as his ex - girlfriend.", Abeer answered making an excuse instantly out of nowhere.

"Yeah... You are right actually. It can be really dangerous. But then where will I sleep?", Khushi asked after thinking for a while.

"If you don't mind we can sleep in the bedroom together.", Abeer suggested out of nowhere making Khushi's eye popped out in shock.
