Brothel Manager : Unexpected Encounter with A Hidden Family Heirloom

Chapter 398 398 : Myra's Interest



The vast Sahara Desert, with its endless expanse of golden sands and roaring winds, was home to many secrets. Among these secrets, concealed amidst the towering dunes, was the Taurus family residence, a marvel of modern architecture and technology.

As one ventured deep inside, past the grand entrance and the labyrinth of opulent chambers, they'd find the surveillance room, an expansive hub of technological wonders that could easily encompass a football field. Dominating this vast room was a colossal screen, an awe-inspiring 70mm display that any theatre would envy.

Today, the screen was alive with the detailed image of a singular young man, exuding an aura of mystery and allure.

Myra, the sultry princess of the Taurus family, stood before the screen, her silhouette casting a shadow over the rows of consoles and terminals behind her. Her raven-black hair cascaded down her back, contrasting sharply with her snow-white robe which flowed gracefully to the floor.

The azure pendant around her neck sparkled, drawing attention to her cleavage, teasingly visible through the plunging neckline.

Her luscious red lips parted slightly as she whispered, almost as if speaking to the figure on the screen, "How did such a dazzling creature like you end up merely as a city manager?"

The man on the screen was undeniably breath-taking. Crimson red eyes that seemed to penetrate the soul, chiselled features that spoke of a royal lineage, and an expression that was both enigmatic and seductive. He was Das, the young city manager, controlling the entire Mumbai in his fingertips, whose recent actions had plunged the clandestine world of hidden families into turmoil.

Myra's almond-shaped eyes, usually so shrewd and calculating, now gleamed with a different light. There was wonder, curiosity, and an undeniable attraction. Every feature of Das' face, every strand of his wind-swept hair, seemed to weave a hypnotic spell over her. It wasn't just his looks; it was the aura of power and secrecy that surrounded him.

Behind her, the room buzzed with activity. Rows of analysts and tech experts sat behind their consoles, scouring the web, satellite imagery, and encrypted databases. They were in search of information, digging up everything there was to know about Das, trying to unravel how he had become embroiled in the feuds of the hidden families.

Whispers filled the air, punctuated by the occasional beep of incoming data.

A senior analyst approached Myra, breaking her reverie. "Princess, our sources confirm that Luis, the young master of the Aries family, was last seen heading towards Das' palace. After that, he vanished."

Myra blinked, forcing her thoughts away from the captivating image. "This Das... he's a key player in a game he may not even realize he's a part of. We must find out more."

"Come on everyone, dig out every small details about this guy. Use our satellites and data storage units from mobile companies." Myra commanded as she determined to find every minute detail.

As the analyst nodded and retreated, Myra's fingers caressed the screen, tracing the outline of Das' face. She was a woman who always got what she wanted, and right now, she wanted to unravel the enigma that was Das, in more ways than one.

As the digging continued the mammoth screen at the room's centre displayed a flurry of images, charts, and snippets of data, drawing lines of connections that tied one event to another, one person to the next.

Das' enigmatic image frequently appeared at the epicentre of this web, flanked by the Farus family's emblem, newspaper articles, and surveillance footage. Every nuance of Das' life, from his early childhood to his recent meteoric rise to power, was dissected and projected.

A timeline showed a steady succession of events: Das' appointment as the city manager, a feat no outsider from the Farus family had ever achieved; A clandestine rendezvous between Bella and Leela at Das' residence coinciding with Luis' mysterious disappearance; and the audacious Aries family attack on Das' palace, marking a turning point in the intricate dance of power dynamics.

Overlaying these visuals, a voiceover narrated each event, drawing tentative connections and posing unanswered questions.

But the revelation that captured Myra's attention the most was Princess Amara's involvement. Footage showed Amara in various interactions with Das, from formal meetings to intimate dinners. Dossiers detailing their financial transactions, correspondence, and shared ventures portrayed a deepening alliance.

And amid all these, a singular document stood out - an official decree, signed and sealed by Princess Amara, endorsing Das for the esteemed city manager role.

Myra, watching intently, felt a twinge of jealousy, mixed with genuine bewilderment. Why would Princess Amara, known for her ruthless cunning and meticulous planning, place her trust in an outsider like Das? Myra pondered this, tapping a slender finger against her chin. The room's ambiance, usually cold with the precision of machinery, now felt charged with tension.

She replayed the attack footage: the Aries family's parade in public to attack on the palace on the night of Luis disappearance, Das emerging as the linchpin, single-handedly turning the tide against the Aries onslaught. But Myra did not received any data on how Aries family forces got massacred on the night of attack on Das.

The aftermath pictures where the Farus family flag stood on top of pile of dead bodies painted a grim picture of the Aries family's devastation. And then, there was the elusive Luis, the unfortunate pawn caught in this perilous game. Every piece of the puzzle seemed to point back to Das.

Amidst her ruminations, a thought struck Myra. Could it be? Did Princess Amara anticipate all these events, setting Das as the perfect bait for the Aries family? It seemed plausible. If that was the case, Das was no mere pawn; he was Princess Amara's knight, protecting the Farus family's king.

Myra leaned back in her plush chair, lost in thought. The room's continual hum seemed to fade as her mind raced. The pieces were falling into place. While the motivations behind Amara's moves remained cryptic, one thing was clear: Das had become a vital chess piece in the grand game of hidden families.

Determined to uncover more, Myra instructed her subordinates to delve deeper. But as the hours waned, her gaze frequently returned to Das' portrait. Beyond the political intrigue and power plays, she felt an undeniable pull towards him. The game was afoot, and Myra was ready for her next move.

Mumbai,

Old City,

Abdullah family estate…

The morning sun cast a golden hue over the Farus family palace, a sprawling, majestic structure that spoke of centuries of power and wealth. Yet, within its walls, there existed a warmth and intimacy, particularly in Ruth's chambers. The room was adorned with intricate tapestries, its scent a mixture of floral fragrances and the subtle hint of musk.

Das stirred from the bed, the soft, luxurious chest of Ruth provided a testament to the comforts he had grown accustomed to. But today was not a day for leisure. As he rose, the weight of the impending journey settled on his shoulders. With swift, practiced movements, he dressed in his signature attire: a bespoke suit that clung to his frame, highlighting his athletic build.

In the adjoining room, he found Sana, his trusted palace secretary, already anticipating his needs. "I will make the arrangements, Master" she informed him, her eyes always watchful, always alert.

Red Rose, efficient and diligent, had overseen the preparation of the jet, ensuring that Das' trip to the USA would be both swift and comfortable. Time was of the essence, and there was no room for delay.

But amidst the urgency, Das couldn't leave without bidding his farewells. Stella and the baby awaited him in the sunlit courtyard, their smiles radiant. The young child gurgled happily, reaching out to him, her tiny fingers closing around his. A pang of emotion surged through Das, grounding him momentarily. The palace, for all its grandeur, was home.

And leaving it behind, even for a short while, was never easy.

Before stepping out, Das went to Serena's room to instruct her about the palace safety and measures to take in the events of danger.

As he stepped outside the palace gates, a gleaming Rolls Royce awaited him. The luxury vehicle, a blend of classic elegance and modern engineering, roared to life as he settled in its plush interiors. As the car smoothly made its way to the airport, the world outside seemed a blur. The familiar streets of his city, the bustling markets, and the serene parks - all passed by in a fleeting montage.

Unbeknownst to Das, lurking in the shadows were unseen threats. The air seemed to thicken with tension, a foreboding that something monumental was on the horizon. But in the sanctum of the Rolls Royce, Das was lost in thoughts, his mind wandering to Eden and her blind sister.

Their last encounter, the depth of emotion in Eden's eyes, the subtle tremor in her voice - all played out vividly in his mind.
