Chapter 2 The Ruthless Mafia

-From Sahir's Point Of View-

Hotel My Lady

(Chennai, India)

Time -9.33pm 

Mostly Crowded!

In The Open Mic Audition 

(Singer singing in the Arabic, Translation is in the bracket)

Roozi bood aasheqat boodam

(There were times that I loved you) 

As soon as I entered the lavish five-star hotel & stood in front of the door, everyone stopped doing whatever they were busy in doing and their heads turned to look at me.

I held a cigar in my mouth, shoving my hand in the pocket and my black gun secured in the other hand. The guards outside greeted me with a fearful salute.

Az daste to kheyli raazi boodam

(I was very happy with you)

Although my eyes are hidden behind the red shades, they travelled everywhere, grasping every ounce, sensing the fear piercing into the cool air and making it thicker, tensed, and hot.

Ammaa to ba'd sheytooni kardi

(But then you behaved badly)

Some people looked frightened as I walked towards the bar slowly, making sure to let everyone know about my presence here, hearing the gasps and whispers. 

"He is here...Sultan is here.." 

I smirked after catching the woman's swooning over me, gazing at me with pure lust, dreaming they might get a chance to bed with me tonight. After all who will not want to get a pleasurable night from the devilishly handsome leader of the town!

Nazdike man nayaa to

(Don't thou come near me )

I walked at the bar and at on the chair keeping his leg to the side, keeping my fist on it. The temper inside my mind makes me sweat. I pulled out my blood-coloured leather jacket. It's her favourite colour and more than just a colour for me. 

Boro, boro, delam toraa, toraa namikhaahad

(Go, go, My heart doesn't want you)

This song does the other effect on my mind because all I was remembering her during my work which isn't right. 

I slammed my ring-clad hand down on the counter, which made the barman flinch on his plate 

"Whisky !"  The cigar smoke blended in the air when I spoke. 

Digar, digar, namikhaaham bebinamat

(I don't want to see you any more)

The waiter immediately filled the glass with whiskey and kept it on the counter.

"Where is he?" I asked him in my raw warning filled tone which made that waiter shiver in fear. 

''I ...I...I... dont.. kn... kn..know.'' 

When a person is lying, they stutter nervously. 

This waiter stuttered a lot. I smirked. Does he want to play? Hell, then I love to play with my prey.

In one go I gulped the drink and kept the glass on the counter. Then I started loading my gun with counting bullets nonchalantly.

One...Two...Three...

''I..I..p..Please...'' Waiter's face became pale after looking at the gun.

"Refill..." I pushed the glass on the table towards the waiter, ignoring the pleads. 

Then I put my gun on the counter making sure that the gun's mouth would be on the waiter's side. I tilted my head and looked at him expressionlessly. The waiter refilled the glass quickly and kept it on the counter with shaky hands.

''P P Please..p please..don't k kill me...I ..I...'' The waiter started begging. This is the part I love the most. When anyone begs for their life to me.

I gulped down another shot & glanced at my wrist-watch.

"You only have only " holding the gun "10 seconds remaining" gripping on the trigger "of your life" pointing at him.

"Ten...Nine...eight" 

''13th floor..room no 1313'' Waiter finally blurted out.

I looked at the waiter & gave him my wicked smile.

Who will try to mess with the Sultan? No one!

I pulled back the trigger & got up from the chair. My eyes fell on the women sitting on the bar, gazing at me. Staring at them I kept the gun at front, between his shirt and the belt. The woman passed a seductive smile at me. Hanging my red jacket over my shoulder, I marched towards the elevator.

With a bing sound, the elevator door opens on the 13th floor. I walked forward. The elevator door closed behind me. 

I saw the silent corridor ahead of me with numerous amount of rooms on both sides.

Sigh! That bastard has to get killed tonight. My legs stumbled a little on the place.

Whiskey has already gotten into my head and making me madder. I pulled out my gun and loaded the trigger. As I started walking slowly swinging my hands down holding the gun and glancing on each door numbers on every two steps like a predator is looking for its prey!

1313 

There it is! 

Bang ..Bang...Bang...

I knocked on the door with my fists holding the gun, whilst I heard one female laughter and giggling.

Bang... Bang... Bang...

"Who's it ..." a male voice asked from inside.

"Room Service !" I said in a formal tone. It made me more anxious.

As soon as the door was opened, I kicked the man and stormed inside the room. My eyes wandered around the room fell on a woman wearing a sexy negligee.

She looked at me with all fear in her eyes, curling to the corner of the sofa.

The man I kicked still winced in the pain, lying on the carpet.

I walked at him and kept my foot on that man's chest looking at the woman,

"Choose any one lady.

Your life or This man's life."

She quickly got up & made her way out of the room. That made me chuckle hard.

"Looks like she betrayed you !" I said looking down at the man under his feet.

The man looked at me with folded hands.

"S Sultan...p please don't kill me. Please forgive me" 

Here comes my favourite part again.

"You dig your grave by selling my confidential information to my enemies. Don't you even think about the consequences of it brother?" I said. He looked as if he will pee in his pants soon. 

"Please..please ..I'll not repeat this mistake again." he folded his hand and kept begging.

I rolled my eyes when they decided to fall on the whiskey bottle again. "Ahan! My darling"

I approached the bottle leaving that traitor behind.

Meanwhile, I glanced at him catching some air like a dog, and sneakily tried to get up.

"Don't try to run! " I said opening the bottle cap with my teeth and blew it again. I started gulping the drink like a thirsty wolf. 

The man froze on the place.

"By the way who was that sexy lady ?" Slurping and savouring the taste, I asked that man.

"She was... umm... a hooker..." The man told looking down in embarrassment.

"Does your wife knows about her?" I narrowed my eyes at the man.

The man shook his head, "N... No.."

I gave him a mischievous look, "So much loyalty ahh"

And we started laughing. For a while, the man became relived falling into my trap. 

"Did you completely satisfied her desires or I disturbed you ?" I asked still grinning at that man. Now the man seemed to get relax,

"Yes, I always satisfy the lady !"

I walked to the man casually. But my mind filled with so much anger for him.

I pointed his gun to the man. His smile fell.

"Sultan..please...Sultan .." the man begged again.

"Now satisfy the gun's desires with your blood!" I said in a menacing way filled with danger and death. 

The man knew what I was talking about!

Enough to take all of his enemies' lives away.

I stepped forward at him, pointing the gun on his head. I felt so much pissed off because of his treachery. I had determined to pour down all the bullets on that man's body. Slowly I pulled the trigger to fire the bullet, then suddenly a familiar melodious voice collided on my ears. 

It made me froze in my place. I felt tremendous joyful goosebumps flowing through my entire body just by listening to the sound. The hold on the trigger pulled back automatically.

"And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70

And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23

And I'm thinking about how people fall in love in mysterious ways

Maybe just the touch of a hand"

It's HER! Time stopped for me as I kept listening to the song.

"Oh me I fall in love with you every single day

And I just wanna tell you I am"

Something inside me started melting like an iceberg. Probably my raging heartfelt a cold splash of her melodious voice. It made me feel more vulnerable. 

"So honey now

Take me into your loving arms

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars"

I can feel changing into a pathetic lover boy quickly after listening to her singing.

"Place your head on my beating heart

I'm thinking out loud

Maybe we found love right where we are"

"My Maddona!" I whispered her name enough audible to myself while dreaming about her with a smile.
