Chapter 115 - Vikram's Sorry and Bharath's freuqncy request.
Vikram woke up restless after the dream. His mind was already in action mode. The empire Sekaran once built was safe under his control now. The Shadow King title had settled firmly on his shoulders. But he felt the weight of everything he had left unaddressed. He decided it was time to return to Chennai. He needed to be near Mirnaa. He needed to start moving on the five points he had listed in the dark.
He came out of the bedroom. The apartment was quiet. No one in the hall. He heard faint sounds from the kitchen.
He walked in. Krish stood at the counter pouring coffee.
Krish saw him and nodded.
“Good morning.”
Vikram returned the greeting.
“Good morning.”
Krish glanced toward the hallway.
“Swathi is still in bed. Tired.”
Vikram nodded.
“I did not look for her yet. But I wanted to talk with you.”
Krish set the coffee pot down. He looked at Vikram steadily.
“Regarding?”
They stood in silence for a moment. Then Krish walked toward the balcony. Vikram followed.
They sat outside. The city spread out below them in the morning haze. Coffee cups steamed between them. The silence stretched for a long minute before Vikram spoke
.
“I am sorry for the way I acted yesterday. And the day before. I should not have shown off like that in front of you. I crossed a line. I know it.”
Krish looked at him. His face was calm but his eyes carried something heavier.
“It is not just showing off. It is how it happened.
Swathi never allowed anyone she had been with to do sexual things outside the bedroom.
You fucked her in the kitchen.
Then kissed her on the balcony.
Right in front of me.
Two days in a row you had sex with her.
She never did back-to-back with the same person before. Other than me.”
Vikram exhaled slowly.
“The first day we did not have sex. She was just teasing you.
It was only the second day. Even though it was not planned.
She was telling me her worries and concerns. She shared long stories and got tired. We slept.
But in the middle of the night I approached her. I was in the mood, she didnt say no.. We had sex. I did not plan it. It just happened.”
Krish nodded. He looked away toward the skyline.
“She wants me to leave this network. Start a restaurant chain. Settle somewhere in India. She is done with the risk I face here. She wanted to speak to you about it. She thinks you can help me exit cleanly. Is that the thing she was discussing with you?”
Vikram looked at him.
“Yes.. She is right. You should. She is worried about you, the risk here in business.
I will make sure you walk away with everything you need. No loose ends. No threats. You deserve that.”
Krish met his eyes.
“Thank you. But it is not as simple as you think. But I will try to think for her.”
Vikram stood up.
“I am going back to Chennai today. I cannot wait here while Mirnaa is there alone.”
Krish raised an eyebrow.
“Today? You were supposed to stay longer.”
Vikram:
“I need to see her. Aadharsh is nowhere to find... Something feels off.”
He did not reveal anything about Bharath and Mirnaa. Not yet.
Vikram asked:
“Any word on Aadharsh?”
Krish shook his head.
“We tried to spot him. Nothing. Every big shot middleman, every link associated with him cut ties the moment they heard the Shadow King is back. Someone truly replaced Sekaran. But no one knows it is you.”
Vikram gave a small nod.
“Good. Keep it that way.”
He turned to leave.
Goa – Beachfront Villa – Same Morning
Mirnaa woke in Bharath’s arms. The sheets were tangled around their bodies. Sunlight streamed through the curtains. Bharath was already awake. He kissed her shoulder softly.
“Good morning.”
They had slow morning sex. Gentle at first. Then deeper. His hands roamed her body. Her moans filled the quiet room. When they came together she held him tight. Her breath was shaky. Her body still trembled.
Afterward she lay on his chest. Voice quiet.
Bharath spoke first.
“Mirnaa I have a concern.”
She lifted her head.
“What?”
Bharath:
“I cannot suddenly withdraw from this. From our relationship. Instead of stopping let us reduce the frequency. From every day to twice a day. Then thrice a week. Then on weekends. Then monthly once. Then none.”
Mirnaa murmured softly. Her body was still under his control. Another wave of pleasure lingered inside her.
“Mmm.”
Her phone buzzed on the nightstand. She reached for it.
A message from Vikram.
Good morning darling.
Attached was an image of a flight ticket. Scheduled for three hours from now. He was returning to Chennai tomorrow.
Mirnaa stared at the screen.
“So I need to get back to Chennai tomorrow? Three more days promise is diluted?”
Bharath looked at the phone. Then at her.
He smiled gently.
“It is okay. We still have today. And tomorrow evening we can return to chennai by flight..”
Mirnaa did not reply. Her mind was already racing
