Possession by Laila Ali (best authors to read txt) 📕

Her throat constricted.

And then Irtaza came into her mind. His strikingly charming and dominant personality, he was indeed an alpha male who had the power to control everything by the flick of his fingers. His image in her mind made her slightly shiver.

She knew he was powerful, a powerful mafia don but she thought that Daniyal's father, Waqas uncle was much powerful than him, because he was in police as that was what Daniyal told her, that his father can destroy Irtaza and he's much more powerful than him, so she need not to be worried about Irtaza after they both will run away. His father through his contacts will shield them from the mafia.

And Zahra believed what he said.

Because she had a blind trust on him.

How naive of her.

But she also felt sorry for Irtaza. She had seen it in his eyes, numerous time that how happy he was to get her in his life. His beautiful smile flashed infront of her eyes when he uttered those three words to her, under the moonlight, that he loves her. She recalled the satisfaction and contentment in his eyes that day.

The satsifaction of having her by his side.

And what she did, decieved him?

That thing was making her guilty and depressed.

At last a lone tears escaped down her eye on thinking about him, but she brushed it off immediately.

No doubt she felt sorry for Irtaza but she forced to do what she did. Despite the fact that Irtaza showed his kind side to her, she can't love him, even if he would've been kind towards her from day one then still she can't love him because it would be a betrayal to her love for Daniyal. Her heart was already occupied by Daniyal and if she had to love someone then first, her love for Daniyal must be eradicated from her heart, which she thought was impossible.

Moreover, she didn't want to act like a playgirl, who leaves one boy when she finds a better one. Irtaza was better from Daniyal in every aspect, even far more than better but it was her heart.

She cant do anything about it.

Because she didn't look for anything in Daniyal except his heart. Whenever Shoaib was done harassing her and touching her inappropriately at inappropriate places, she'd cry and cry and at that exact moment Daniyal always used to pop out from somewhere and cheer her up. If he wasn't there then she was sure that she might have committed suicide. 

Although Irtaza had also cooed her, cheered her up at various moments when she was extremely depressed but her heart was already occupied by someone's else love.

And you can't love two people at a same time.

She had truly forgiven Irtaza for his atrocities but still she can't forget them. Those scenes were imprinted in her mind making her more and more fearful of him.

The time passed quickly and she got a call from Daniyal breaking her chain of thoughts.

She attended it quickly.

"Hello Daniyal. Where are you?"

"I'm on my way. The traffic is jammed yet."

"Oh ok ok. When you will reach here, its already 9:45."

"Might take an hour, I'll reach there by about 10:45 or 11."

"Ok fine. I'm waiting."

"Me too. Love you. Take care. Bye Jaan."

"Bye meri jaan. I love you too."

She said and cut the call as a small smile reached on her lips. She was so happy and excited to meet Daniyal.

An hour passed and it was 11 oclock when she got a call from Daniyal.

"Hello Zahra. I'm standing at the back side of your university."

"Ok ok I'm coming." She answered cutting the call and hurriedly wore her burkha, and covered her face with a mask so no guard could recognise her.

She suddey felt so happy. Her legs begin to move fastly as she almost ran towards the back gate of university and got out of the gate. Her eyes fell on Daniyal who was standing by the car.

And time stopped for her.

The world stopped.

The people stopped.

Her heart begin to beat fastly.

The moment arrived for which she was waiting since so long.

It felt to her as if he was the only person present there and no one else.

Her legs begin to shake with happiness while looking towards him.

She had completely covered herself that Daniyal didn't recognsie that she was Zahra and was looking around here and there, trynig to find her.

She took a step towards him and her eyes filled with tears.

He was standing infront of her and she couldn't believe it.

She felt so overwhelmed and ran towards him, taking him in a bone crushing hug.

She never had allowed Daniyal to touch her in any way but this time the case was different. She couldn't control herself. He meant the world to her. And seeing him after a month was so overwhelming for her.

Daniyal was surprised when she clung on his body like her life was dependent on it. He smile and hugged her back.

Her body was tightly pressed against his and her arms were wrapped around him and his were wrapped around hers as if they both were getting a certain energy from each other.

Anyone who would see them will immediately get it that they both are lovers, who're united after decades. And yes that month was not less than a decade for her and him.

"Zahra."

"Daniyal"

"I missed you"

"Me too"

She pulled off of him and removed her mask, looking at him with contentment.

"Daniyal at last we met. I love you."

"I love you too Zahra" He whispered and held the nape of her neck, making her surprised.

What? She didn't want that to happen, not yet!

But before she could stop him, he placed his lips on hers for a millisecond when a straight punched landed on his jaw.

Zahra moved her head towards the source and saw it was Haseeb.

Her eyes widened.

She totally forgot that she asked Haseeb to pick her up at about 11 from university.
