Her Monster Chapter 9

It was decided that they would meet up at Singhania mansion .Ishaan was the first one to arrive , he was talking to Darsh sitting in the lounge area . Reya and Zoya also came down all dressed up . Reya was wearing a cute dark blue dress, which hit above her knees . Her milky white skin was on display , ready to attract all attention . Zoya was in similar dress in peach color.

They joined Ansh and Darsh , "so young man , have you found any girl for yourself ?" Darsh asked in a light tone .

"Yeah , do tell me some ways for her to take me seriously "Ansh said with a funny pout .

Darsh laughed thinking that he was , he had never seen Ansh flirting or talking to anyone except Reya and Zoya .

Just then , Adira and Atharv also entered looking breath-taking with the servant leading the way . After greetings , they settled down .Aisha also joined with the servant serving drinks and some snacks for younger party .

Reya was trying to take her eyes off Atharv . She didn't know , how could she feel attracted to him even after him insulting her so much . She was the girl , who would never look at the person who gave her a stingy eyes and now it was like nothing mattered .

"I didn't know , the trio made some new friends "Darsh said with a smile "what's the plan for today ?" He continued .

"Nothing special , just going to show Adira and Atharv some places and "he looked at Reya teasingly "then may be a long drive on the northern side of the town, as this weird girl always ask for "he said in a flow but a silence took over the place after his words .

Adira and Atharv could feel the tension, but didn't know what was the matter . Aisha looked at Reya for confirmation , but her down casted eyes told Aisha what she needed to know .

"Please excuse me "Aisha said and got up . Reya tried to go behind her but Darsh held her hand and made her sit down .

"How often do you go for a long drive over there ? " he asked looking at Zoya.

"Always "she said meekly .

"If you don't mind , can I ask what's wrong with that area? Our house is in that direction "Adira asked not able to control himself .

"Nothing is wrong , actually , Aisha doesn't feel very comfortable with the forest area at night .there are animals and she is really sensitive when it comes to Reya's safety "Darsh sighed .

"Dad nothing ever happened , we go to that area almost every night "Reya said with a sad look .

"Don't worry , I will make your mom understand , you all go and have fun "Darsh said with a smile .he knew that Aisha was worried , but he wasn't ready to cage Reya because of the fear of losing her .Ishaan apologized for his mistake , but Reya brushed it off , she knew that Ishaan didn't have any idea about Aisha 's dislike for that area.

They left in Ishaan's jeep , Atharv left their car at Singhania mansion .Reya was a bit upset but Adira and Zoya tried their best to cheer her up.

They went to Malhotra 's club , Ishaan was dancing with Zoya, Adira and Reya were enjoying themselves .Atharv was sitting at the bar , watching them. It took a lot of effort to take his eyes off her .Reya and Adira came for drinks , Adira excused herself to the loo , leaving Reya with Atharv .

Adira had some doubts about what was going on between Adira and Atharv .she wanted to confirm it .

Reya and Atharv were standing a bit away , no one could say that they knew each other. A young guy approached Reya "can I buy the beautiful lady a drink ? "He said in a flirty tone .

Reya looked at him not knowing what to say .just then Atharv moved beside Reya , held her by waist glaring at the guy .

Reya felt pleasurable shivers run through her body on his touch .the guy started getting nervous seeing Atharv glaring .

"Ugh! I didn't know she was with you " he said before leaving .

Before Reya could ask Atharv about his move , Atharv moved away .

Reya asked " why did you do that ? "

"Did you want him to flirt with you ?"he asked in restrained voice, he didn't know why it was making him so angry .

"No, but..."Atharv cut her in "then it doesn't matter "he turned his head to the other side ending the conversation .

"Jerk "Reya muttered hating his guts .

After sometime , they left , "ready for a long drive? " Ishaan said with a grin increasing the speed of the car .

"I think we should go home "Reya said meekly , she wasn't the one to get happiness after hurting others.

"Chill, dad had given permission , he will handle mom "Zoya said asking Ishaan to go on .she knew that it was one of the times , Reya relaxed fully .and from someday lack of sleep , she really needed it .

Atharv was noting Reya's every move .he could see the fascination on her face looking at the forest , the need to explore , to find out secrets ......secrets which could get her harmed .

That night , Atharv again spent the night in her room , he couldn't look away from her .he was understanding that his interest in her wasn't good I am a predator, why are you calling to me ? Looking all ready to be my willing prey ? " Atharv whispered before leaving .he had decided not to come again .he knew that it was dangerous .

When he returned to his room, Adira entered behind him "what's going on between Reya and you ? "She asked

"What ? "He asked with blank look.

"Atharv I am not an idiot .the way you look at her is letting on more than you want to tell. "Adira said.

"Don't do it , you will end up killing her "Adira said .

"I am not goanna go near her .no need to worry " Atharv said firmly .

He had decided to stay away doesn't matter what the situation was.
