The Traps of Black Swan

After the call ended with Zain, Aaron noticed a sports car taking a U-turn a little ahead of the road. He was about to ask the men around if they fetched the video from the traffic camera, his mobile beeped indicating a message had been dropped.

It was a video clip, he clicked to download and his mobile rang with the same number. He answered to hear a troubled voice, [President Rivas, we can't find a clue. Young Madam looked right and left before she walked then ran toward the lake road. Then she disappeared from both the cameras.]

Zain saw Aaron's face turn dark before he hissed, "Are you saying she vanished into thin air?"

Ignoring him for a few seconds, he spoke to the men first and went to Aaron who was hearing the other end of the response, [President Rivas, there were vehicles, Young Madam didn't appear in the second camera after cars passed by her. We are looking for a clue.]

Aaron hung up to watch the video and Zain watched standing beside him.

Aarvi suddenly pulled the car aside and parked it. She alighted and looked around the dense darkness. There were lots of trees so it no less looked like a forest.

The video wasn't clear enough to see her expression but they could make out her wiping her tears right at the corner of her eyes without letting them roll on her cheeks.

…

Zain asked Aaron to confirm, "No gas in the car?" He couldn't understand why she alighted the car over there.

Aaron blandly responded without taking his eyes away from the video, "It has.'

...

A sedan that had slowed down took a reverse and stopped by her. A man alighted to talk something but Aarvi didn't spare a glance and walked towards the city.

The man shrugged his hands in the air, probably saying something, and checked out the car. After the realization it was a new model Maybach, He intently checked out the car while Aarvi was running away.

The man got into his car quickly and reached her. Moving slowly next to her, probably he was saying something to her.

Aarvi just ran. Another car soon slowed down next to the first car. 

Aarvi had gone to the distant end of the camera surveillance, they couldn't make out if she was walking or standing but the thin white line suddenly disappeared and the two cars drove away.

Zain frowned and looked at the dark corner of the road. Aarvi was scared of darkness, if she couldn't go away from the road, did the sedan pull her into the car?

Aaron who downloaded the second video checked the time and noticed only cars moved and Aarvi didn't appear at all. No doubt they felt Aarvi disappeared.

Zain took his mobile and played the first video. When he noticed Aarvi gaze the camera straight and then move, he uttered in utmost nonchalance but Aaron could feel his demeanor change to intense and frighteningly cold, "It's a blind spot." 

He told about the spot where they felt Aarvi disappeared. Due to the out-of-city vicinity area, the traffic lights were at a huge distance from each other which made it easy to form a blind spot.

As far as Zain could guess from her every activity, Aarvi knows numerous blind spots and escape routes in the city. She was well prepared to face any trouble at any moment.

So Zain wanted to know if she went into hiding or if she had a route to escape without leaving a clue. Or did she get into the car at the blind spot?

Aaron's team was thinking Aarvi was kidnapped but Aaron was trying to think of Aarvi's reason to stop the car and run. Both men knew Aarvi wasn't scared of the man from the sedan, if she was afraid, she would have taken the Maybach and drove off.

A car which had gone ahead to check around the lake returned with only a man. He quickly reported, "President Rivas, the place Young Madam disappeared, there is a small path for walking to reach the lake." 

Zain and Aaron waited for him to finish. The man looked at their faces to see any reaction but found none. He continued after it, "But Young Madam isn't around but we found the fresh soiled mark of wheels of a car entering the road from the path aside."

He didn't bother to mention that another team was tracing that car too as it was well known to Aaron.

Zain commented, "She must be sitting somewhere becoming the feast to mosquitoes." He actually meant to say she wants to be alone.

Whereas Aaron stood rooted without comments. His brows crunched and raised repeatedly before his eyes twinkled.

He ordered, "Abort the search." And he ran towards his car.

Zain: "..."

Zain really wanted to beat that man into pulp. Aaron didn't look like he aborted the search because he wanted to give her time, instead, he deduced where Aarvi was. 

Aaron ignored his men and it was understandable but Zain was worried sick of his Pumpkin and Aaron ran away without uttering a word. If Aaron wasn't his Pumpkin's love, he would have really punched him in the face without caring he was Rivas.

While he stood cursing him, Aaron slammed on the brakes in front of him, "You should head home. I will take care of her."

However Zain said through his clenched teeth before Aaron could roll his window up and leave, "You should."

Aaron paused in his action and turned to him. Zain continued controlling with his all might from punching his face, "If you test Pumpkin again if you could break her, I will show you how I will break you down."

Both men looked daggers at each other. 

It was the emotional intimacy of Aarvi with Aaron which was far too high than the emotional connection of Aarvi and Zain. Zain might know a lot of tricks and mind games of Aarvi but her inner self was known to Aaron so Aaron deduced where Aarvi could be.

The three men froze hearing Zain. Only one could see both men's faces. One was seemingly worn out after a long day but that didn't take away his alluring charm and aristocratic vibe. Another one seemed angry but his suaveness was out worldly. 

The man gulped his mouthful of saliva. It was truly a feast to the eyes to watch two exquisite men staring at each other. 

Soon a honk by a passing-by car broke the intense air around them.

The car window rolled up as Aaron uttered it like a fact, "I couldn't agree more." He never doubted Zain's protectiveness towards Aarvi.

When Zain could attack Aaron and the Rivas Industries when he didn't even know about his weakness, he could be ruthless when he knows about the weakness.

He wasn't mad hearing him but he was glad Zain wouldn't mind standing against anybody to fight for Aarvi.

Aaron had many questions to ask Zain. Zain Kelly, who stays calm and composed all the time even when Aarvi risks her own life, why didn't he have the same patience when he saw Hayden at the Avron mansion? 

Why was Zain so angered? 

Zain didn't know Aaron was in contact with Hayden and similarly, Hayden has no idea Aarvi is still close to Zain and Aaron is also in contact with Zain.

There were so many secrets and mysteries to solve. Above all, Aaron cared about one, Aarvi. So he ignored the rest to reach her.
