Chapter 5 - Silent Threats

11:30 PM – Narrow Alley, City Outskirts

Yaar, I was just trying to follow him from a distance, jaise always… par tonight, kuch alag feel ho raha tha. City ki lights blink kar rahi thi, shadows long and eerie.

He stops near a narrow alley. I hide behind a dumpster, heart racing. Aur phir I notice… do guys peeking around corners, clearly looking for him. Rival move. My stomach tightens.

Main thoda step back karti hoon, par curiosity se ruk nahi pa rahi. He doesn't even flinch. Calm, confident… jaise un dono ka presence useless ho.

One of them moves forward, haath in pocket, confident. But he—male lead—does nothing visibly. Just stands there, hands lightly adjusting cuffs, aur ek slight smirk. Within seconds, the guys look confused, nervous, aur then leave. WTF?

Seriously? He just… manipulated them silently?

I'm stunned. Heart racing, eyes wide. Kitna calculated aur deadly banda hai. Silent apex, indeed.

Phir he turns, aur just for a second, I meet his glance. Wo small look… ek test lag raha tha. Jaise pooch raha ho: "Are you brave enough to stay close?"

I nod slightly to myself, even though he probably noticed.

Night streets me wind blow rahi hai, aur main slowly realize kar rahi hoon:

Yeh banda sirf dangerous nahi…

Silent, calculated, aur unpredictable hai…

Aur main… completely hooked ho gayi hoon.
