Adultery Love Sex And War : Age Of Darkness

[Harry Jordan]

I am convinced that your suggestion for brightening up the history of Sonarika and Hemant, if realised, will be the highlight of the coming chapter.

I am already looking forward to it ...

I am glad that you loved the latest chapter and your enthusiasm to the lore of the story. So , I thought why not spike some fun by giving you some more context on the lore.


Rustom is actually a descendant of native Irani lineage with his family having ties to the Qajar Dynasty that once unified and ruled Iran from the 17th century. Now the Indian connection to him comes with Rustom's mother being a Parsi from India and being raised by her for a lifetime  , he adapted her surname of Rustom and keeps a little Parsi belief in life. His wife Rebecca is an Italian descendant but follows Jewish faith. Rustom's mindset and dynamic in life is close to his mother teaching him about his paternal roots to the Qajar Dynasty who reunified Iran together and brought order. This had played a major role in Rustom's life as he believed in order that protectedn the world. He was involved in shady businesses but it was all for good reasons. He was kind of a "Vito Corleon" from Godfather but with a good moral compass and always drawing line between good and evil. But his morality and ideals were challenged and shaken when Michael King entered his life. The shared history they had which eventually led them to a darker conclusion is what will be explored in Michael's backstory.


As for the Zarirs , they're basically the worst kind of people , the typical "Savage" and "Ruthless" and "Evil" side of a '. patriarchy who has the legacy just like the Turks. Brutality and Slaughter are their legacy , their concept of humanity is completely different , either agree with them or get trampled. And they show no mercy , not even to women or children. The worst of the worst. Their ancestry is filled with crimes as the Zarir's are a generations of crime and mayhem that laid remote in Azarbaijaan. But our current villain Daraaksh is slightly different , as even though his motivations are purely on revenge for the murder of his loved ones , his methods and tactics are different thanks to upbringing being raised in a different setting than the rural Azarbaijaan. His early life will be explored in Michael's backstory in the future chapters.


Now for Sonarika's father , he didn't hate Hemant for being "Fat and Weak" , he hated him because he still doesn't know much about Hemant. Hemant's history is a but complicated and Sonarika's father has doubts regarding his "story" of being kicked out of the army for being unfit in combat situations. Plus he too has no idea about his actual military history and Hemant's past as Michael King. So this long lost letter of Rustom now found could be a time that will crumble a family apart with explosion of revelations. Jagjeet has his reaons and doubts and there is an apt reason for it which will be revealed in the later chapters.


Hemant's fear regarding Sonarika is not about her finding out but more like how she will react. If she reacts in a negative way , Hemant has developed a fear that she will snatch away Karan and Anjali from him. This builds into his fear of being lonely and thus making himself vulnerable for Michael King to takeover and completely kill Hemant and become something else. That is the deep fear he has , as he is scared Sonarika just might ruin him as he understands his own sins of keeping his past away from her!


Now for the "gigolo Hemant" aspect , it was purely to build the attraction between Hemant and Pranitha and spice up their "unusual relationship". The whole point of his sexual adventures with these celebrities is to tease Pranitha and build a relationship that is apt to their kind of lifestyle. Plus they are two characters that will not rush into a relationship , Pranitha has her own ups and downs in the relationships and Hemant has his too , so their bonding is build on two individuals that are too afraid for a commitment with the fear their legacy with relationships might ruin it. This also helps exploring their relationship which is quiet sensual and at the same time very amicable as this heightens their chemistry with each other. In many aspects , you will see Pranitha and Hemant are actually meant for each other. But are they really? or is it just their infactuations too powerful to not see the flaws in their relationship? That only time will tell.


Once again , glad that you loved the story and like I teased , the Lebanon action sequence will be another big action setpiece like the Dilawar takedown and Operation Jewel Thief but much much more dangerous and thrilling. Wait and read as the Age Of Darkness is about to take devious turns in the story as conflicts gets tighter and lives are in danger!!
