As everyone's eyes were on them Tiger put zoya down grabbed her by the arm and dragged her backstage to a changing room and asked everyone to get out.
Zoya was scared avoiding eyes with Tiger
Tiger looked at her angrily then slowly started to approach her
Noticing that zoya looked up at him with a worried look and took steps back
She was taking steps back he was approaching her slowly
Then Zoya's back hit the wall
Just when she wanted to leave Tiger put his right arm to her side blocking her from leaving
Zoya: Let me go please
Tiger: You started lecturing me about dignity and pride the other day..but look at you now, dressed in such clothes..coming to my place..ruining my show..for wat? To take revenge? Or to get my attention like every other girl
Zoya: I didn't know this place belonged to you, if I knew I would've came
Tiger chuckled was zoya was trying to stop herself from crying
Tiger: I'm sure that's the case.
Tiger hit the wall with the same hand he blocked her from leaving, she startled
Tiger: What the hell are you doing here
Zoya: I-I saw deepika and ranvir so I-
Tiger: You saw deepika and ranvir so you decided to sneak in my show, I'm curious about one thing how did you get past through the guards and officers
Zoya: Some man brought me here he works for you
Tiger: I'm not letting you go if you're gonna keep lying to me
Zoya: I'm not lying..my sister is waiting for me please let me go
Tiger grabbed zoya by the waist and pulled her towards him soya was surprised
Zoya: What are you doing
Tiger: Isn't that what you came for, you're just like every other girl
Zoya was trying to move his hands away from her waist but his grip was too strong
Zoya: please let me go
Tiger: I know girls like you very well, trying to trap rich men by using their bodies to get attention, well now you have my attention, are you going to give yourself to me, but of course I will have to pay you though right?
Zoya was in disbelief as she was teary
Tiger reached for the zipper of her back dress and was unzipping it slowly..
zoya then pushed him away and just when she was about ti slap him he held her arm
Tiger: Don't you ever dare
They looked at each other for a moment, zoya with embarrassment and disbelief while Tiger with anger
Tiger: You really thought I was going to touch you? I wouldn't do that Even if you were the last girl on earth
Tiger pulled her close to himself again and threatened her to not show herself again and just when he was about to leave he saw a pair a dirty shoes
Tiger: Such poor shoes, they definitely must be yours am I correct
Zoya didn't answer but Tiger already knew so he picked them up and threw them in the garbage that was inside the room then he left
Zoya felt in despair she started crying. She changed into her normal clothes and went outside the same way she came from
Haya was waiting for her calling her but zoya's phone was silent so she didn't hear even if she did she wouldn't answer because of terrible she's feeling right now
Haya then saw zoya and ran towards her
Haya: Zoya! Are you okay what happened why are you crying?
Zoya didn't answer her instead she just kept walking
Haya: Zoya what happened in there why are you in this state
Zoya then stopped turned towards her sister
Zoya: I want to be alone Haya
Haya: No zoya I am not leaving you are you kidding?!
Zoya: Haya, please..nana is home alone I will go and get her medicines they were finished anyway..I'll see you at home
Haya: but zoya-
Zoya: I'm okay really, I was just happy to see my 2 favorite actors that's all okay
Even though Haya didn't believe zoya and even though she didn't want to leave zoya at all in that state, she had to go home
It's almost about to be sunset and zoya's still walking having flashbacks about tigers words and his disrespect towards her, how she felt helpless and very upset
She couldn't help but cry
Since she took off her heels after changing and since she didn't have her old shoes as they were in the trash already , she was walking barefoot, She had reached the nearest temple once she realized the temple she walked upstairs towards it, it was 20 steps to reach it
The ground was filled with sharp rocks,dirt,and a few glass
Zoya cut herself each step she took
She closed her eyes right with each pain she felt but didn't even knelt down once to check her foot she still kept walking up towards the temple
At that same temple a handsome man, chiseled jawline, hair slick back, dressed in all black had a sleeve tattoo on his left arm, he also had a vertically tattoo on the side of his right neck "PASSION"
He was with an old lady who was doing a ritual prayer with the rest while he was just standing in the back showing fully no interested in it
Both his hands were in his pockets
Zoya reached inside the temple with dried tears
Some women were eyeing her and gossiping about her
"Who's she?" "What do you think happened to her" "look at the way she's dressed, it's all rags" "she probably comes from a poor family maybe even the streets"
Zoya heard all that and responded back as she couldn't take it any longer
All eyes were on them including the old lady the handsome stranger was with, the handsome stranger was the only one that couldn't see her perfectly since everyone was in front of him
He still showed no interest and walked outside the temple after asking one of the guards that was accompanying him and the old lady to watch over his grandmother
The handsome stranger started to walk towards his luxury car
Zoya: You guys are right, im poor, I didn't grow up with a silver spoon like you guys, but I was never not even for a day ashamed, my grandmother took care of me and my little sister she worked day and night just for us, everyone around me made fun of us because she worked as a house cleaner, at a bakery..just to feed me and my little sister. I was thankful and proud of her at every moment I was never ashamed and I never will be. I didn't live a normal childhood because I also had to take care of my sister my and grandmother once she got sick, I had to leave school to work and take care of my family. It's no one's fault it's not a child's fault to have to mature at an early age, we just live in a judgmental society. I hope no one of you lives what I lived because I never wish anything bad to anyone
Zoya then left, the old lady looked so proud of zoya she was smiling at her speech and liked at and praised her behavior and the way she was raised
Once zoya left the temple she walked down
The handsome stranger was on his phone with his back against the car while waiting for his grandmother
As zoya finally reached the end of the temple while stumbling all the way because of her bloody and injuries under her feet
The handsome stranger started to look around
He noticed zoya and her injured state
He raised an eyebrow looking confused as he was looking at her
A car starts honking while approaching zoya's direction
Zoya wasnt paying attention she was distracted with her thoughts not hearing everything
The handsome stranger noticed the car approaching her
So he quickly ran towards zoya while calling her out to move
"HEY! GET OUT OF THE WAY"
Zoya wasn't listening she was lost in her thoughts
The handsome stranger quickly pulled her out of the way and they both fell on the ground but he protected her by using his body as a shield
Handsome stranger: Are you alright?!
Zoya looked at him for a few seconds but then her vision became blurry and fainted in his arms
The handsome stranger looked at her for a second trying to wake her up but then he picked her up in his arms and headed straight towards his car
Just then he grandmother came down with their bodyguard and saw them
James's Grandmother: James?
James: We need to take her to the hospital
James's grandmother: That's the same girl that was up at the temple
James: Not now nana come on
James helped his grandmother get inside and drove off the car while his bodyguards followed with their car
James grandmother: Let's take her to our house my son
James: What?
James grandmother: Everyone is going to know who we are once we reached the hospital, don't forget that we come from a very well known family so all of our moves are being watched by everyone, that's why we should take her home and call our family doctor to come and take a look at her
James: Nana-
James grandmother: I said take her home once she gets better we will drop her off whenever she lives
James: As you say nan
James sighed
They reached their mansion and on the way James called their family doctor
James parked his car and went to the back seat picked her up and reached to the front door
There were servants and butlers all around the servants opened the front door and James took her upstairs to his room
He laid her on his bed
James checked if she had a fever
Just then the family doctor came with his 2 nurses
James and his grandmother left the room
About 29 minutes later he came out The room and went downstairs to talk with James and his grandmother dorga
Dorga: How's the girl
Doctor: Shes fine now I gave her a sedative she's sleeping. She fainted from blood loss but it wasn't severe, we attached a saline to help her
James: Her feet was injured
Doctor: We took a look at that as well that's where the blood-loss came from, make her not stand on her feet too much you have to take care of your wife better treat her wounds with ointments so there will be no infection later on
James: Shes not my wife
Doctor: Shes not? I thought she was I started asking myself when did he get married and not include me
The doctor chuckled then excused himself
Grandmother dorga was happy about it even though James didn't take it serious and didn't smile at it at all, he then walked away from the living room
Dorga: I really loved this girl she seems very well mannered, I hope my James and her will soon come to love each other
*********
It's now night time
James went to get clothes from his bedroom closet to change, and as James took his shirt off he heard some mumbling coming from zoya
He walked towards her to check if she was okay
Zoya: mom...dad...please don't leave me
James: Hey wake up you're having a nightmare
James was shaking her carefully to wake her up, she then woke up with a gasp from the nightmare
She then became face to face with a topless strange man in front of her which made her move back on the bed
Zoya: Who are you?
