Ria's point of view...I blushed at the thought, feeling a mixture of excitement and nervousness. Tiger's actions were always unpredictable, and I had no idea what he had in mind. But there was an undeniable spark between us, a connection that went beyond words.As he gently removed my coat, his touch sent shivers down my spine. His fingers brushed against my skin, leaving a trail of warmth in their wake. "I c...can d...do it my....!" I stuttered as, I couldn't help but notice the intense look in his eyes, a hunger mixed with a tenderness that made my heart race."Stay still" he hissed, his voice as cold as ice, yet I was burning hot like an inferno.His hands moved with purpose, unbuttoning my shirt one by one. Each touch felt electrifying, igniting a fire within me. I clenched his hand as it reached the third button, unknowingly, I was never so intimate with any man in my whole life. All I did was study, study, and operations that's it."Do you want me to tie you up?" he groaned e
Tiger's point of view...The morning arrived with a soft glow, and I woke up feeling content, my heart still fluttering from the passionate night I had shared with Ria. The tender love that I have been yearning for years, I got it from her. The secret feelings that we had expressed had brought us even closer, reaffirming the depth of our connection. As I lay there, basking in the afterglow, a sense of peace washed over me. My heart swelled with love as I watched her, swirling in my chest.But just as the serenity settled, my phone rang, jolting me from my blissful state. I reached for it, seeing Joe's name flashing on the screen. "Sir, it's urgent...!" he said the moment I received it. "What is it..?" I thought it might be about his son but when he spoke my phone almost slipped.The urgency in his voice was evident as he relayed the news that he had traced Alex. That one person I had been tirelessly searching for. My heart raced with a mix of anxiety and eagerness. I knew this w
Author's point of view..."I want you to meet someone, Tiger," said his father, but before he could ask, his father added making him jolt, "That's your brother, my son, Alex!" Tiger stood frozen, his mind struggling to comprehend the words that had just left his father's mouth. The world around him seemed to fade into the background as he stared at the man standing beside Ria, who had been facing her as the dual were chatting and giggling.Tiger's heart raced, and a mix of emotions swirled within him. Disbelief, shock, and anger clashed, creating a tumultuous storm inside him. He took a step closer, his eyes never leaving that man. He moved forward, hesitatingly. Many thoughts pooled up in his mind, could it be?But how could that happen?Dad's son...!As he reached the dining hall, Ria stood up with a smile spread on her face. "Tiger...! You are...!" before she could talk any further, his shocked facial expressions halted her words."What happened Tiger?" she asked confusingly.Wi
The freight of the world still rested heavily on his mind, but what he just saw had burnt his soul completely."All women are wench....!""Betrayers...!" he shouted and mumbled his desperation out but nothing seems to be working for him.As he fell on the bed, the exhaustion of the day and the alcohol finally caught up with him. Sleep claimed his body and his mind still refused to shatter those things out of his memory.When he awoke, the morning light spilled into the room, casting a gentle glow on his face. The incidents of the previous night lingered as Tiger stirred awake. His mind still clouded by the remnants of the previous night's alcohol-induced haze, he heard a soft knock on his bedroom door. "Come in," Tiger clamored, his voice tinged with weariness.The door creaked open, revealing Ria standing at the threshold. Her eyes were red-rimmed, evidence of the tears shed in the wake of the revelations which she tried hiding. She took a hesitant step forward, her voice filled w
Ria's words lingered in the air, creating a sense of anticipation within Tiger. He couldn't help but feel curious about this mysterious woman who held such significance in Ria's life. Though he won't meet anyone without any particular reason, it was only fair that he embrace Ria's desire to introduce him to her mother whom she held so dear to her heart. Anyway, he was not yet ready to face the intrusion of Alex in his new life. He wanted some time to cool his mind, though his emotional turmoil calm down a little because he was not alone in this now."When can we meet her?" Tiger asked, a hint of excitement now evident in his voice. Ria smiled, her eyes shining with surprise." You agreed...!" She hissed as if she just got something that she never expected. Then added, "I thought you would deny, I'll make arrangements for us to visit there today" she let out excitedly, "I love going there, it is an old age home and an orphanage too, where she resides. I want you to experience the same l
Tiger's point of view... As Ria and I approached the car, a sense of tranquility enveloped us. The warmth of that passionate time together still lingered in my head, our hearts entwined with love and desire. She had been stealing shy glances at me making me smile and crave more of her. Suddenly I noticed something abnormal about my car, as someone was trying to open the door forcefully. I wanted to spend some time alone with Ria, so I asked all my men to stay back. There was no one to linger the car behind me but even if they are here, no one would ever dare to touch it. That was odd, but dangerous too. My instinct forced me to believe that something was off and feeling the urgency I grabbed Ria's hand and lunged aside. The moment we landed at a distance, we heard a big explosion. I turned to see if my instinct was right. And to my surprise, I found my car floating in the air with flames emitting from it. "He couldn't wait anymore" a phrase left my mouth as I know who might have
Tiger's point of view...My mind swirled as the realization struck me, so this is what he used to cover his attack.He had exposed the truth about Thomas.I felt a cold emptiness settle in the pit of my stomach as Dad's furious gaze bore into me. The weight of his disappointment was crushing, threatening to drown me in a sea of guilt. I had kept this secret from him, fearing the consequences of revealing the truth because I don't want him to get involved in that mess.But...!"I... I didn't want to worry you," I stammered, my voice barely a whisper. "I thought why bother you as I could handle it on my own." Dad's anger softened momentarily, replaced by a look of hurt. "Tiger, you are my son, aren't you? I trusted you," he said, his voice filled with a mix of frustration and concern. "We're a family, isn't it?" I nodded bluntly, Dad was hurt, I never saw him so emotional before.What the hell did this bastard tell him?"You have no idea what that man did to me," his expression chan
Ria's point of view...Ever since Tiger and I got married, life had been a rollercoaster ride. We faced challenges, joys, and sorrows together. Though we find true love in each other, I never once noticed him free of tension.It is all because of that man who changes his colors just like a Chamaeleon.I know he just shows himself as good and caring. I just can't understand how Michael uncle believed that trashy man. We were a happy family, but there was one obstacle that had lingered in the shadows for far too long.After listening to Tiger's back story, even I want to shoot him to death despite being a doctor. That enigmatic bastard. Alex had been a cunning adversary, always one step ahead of us, orchestrating strategies and plans that threatened to tear apart everything we held dear.I was lying beside Tiger, looking at him. He just closed his eyes after a troubled night after I gave him a dose.It trembled me how he is getting bothered by that man Alex, I need to put him out of h
