“First of all, our branch in country F is facing some issues and I need to visit that branch for the same. I will be leaving this company on your shoulders till then. Kizy will stay here for the time being and you all can always contact her directly for any company related matter.
Secondly, news about my absence for this period is to be kept a secret and hence only you people have been invited to the meeting instead of the rest of all.
Similarly you all know the consequences of breaking any company news or information to the outsiders, so i need not to repeat that.
And lastly, Kizy’s decision would be the final call and I hope all of you will respect and accept her decisions as gladly as you do for me.
You all have been one of the earliest and most trusted members of this company, so many of you might doubt her capabilities, but trust me she is more than that.
Alas, I just want all of you to cooperate with each other and help the company progress in my absence.” Markus said and ended his speech.
“Any doubts?” Markus asked, giving the members enough time to understand all the points he said.
Finally one old man raised his hand, to which Markus gave a nod, signalling he was permitted to speak.
“Though Miss Kizy is capable enough and I admire her for that, she is still a little inexperienced. Many of the matters don’t just require a brain but some unique solutions that come with years of experience. What will we do in such times?” The man said, remaining polite throughout his talk.
Markus just turned to Kizy, waiting for her to answer the question.
“That is why we all are working together. Though I am inexperienced, you all have been with the company through thick and thin. We will face and solve the problems together. Similarly if we are still stuck, we can always trouble grandpa a little.” Kizy said, smiling at the end, making all the members smile and nod at her answer.
“Any other doubt?” Markus asked, satisfied with his wife’s answer.
A middle aged lady with sharp looks raised her hand, wanting to ask another question.
“Yes.” Markus said, asking for the lady to proceed.
“Boss, from what you said, I assume that you’ll be absent for quite some time. But we always have some or other public occasions where you are supposed to show up. Once or twice is okay, but how will we explain your absence every time? Plus you want this matter to remain a secret.” The lady said, bringing attention to another major issue.
“You don’t have to worry about that. Kizy will soon be announcing some major news. After that, none of us are required to have any public appearance. All of you only have to work harder to strive for more success in our company. Rest assured, all other issues will be handled by Kizy effectively.” Markus answered, showing time and time again that he had blind trust in Kizy.
Thankfully ‘Stardust’ was not some regular company. The employees knew their boundaries and were professional enough to not invade others’ privacy.
Even if their boss would have asked them to run the company without any leader, they would have done it without any questions.
The only basic rule in ‘Stardust’ was to not stick your nose in others’ business and not to leak any company related information to the outsiders.
“Anything else?” Markus asked again in a patient and authoritative tone.
But this time nobody raised their hand and hence the meeting came to an end.
“Grandpa asked us to drop by the house for dinner.” Markus said to Kizy while entering his office.
“Let’s do that.” Kizy nodded.
The couple spent their entire day working hard, where Markus would explain some files or projects in between which would be beneficial for Kizy while handling the company in the coming future.
Ultimately the sky turned dark and both Kizy and Markus left the building.
Within half an hour they were already standing at the gates of Evans mansion, Kizy holding Markus’s arm while entering.
“Finally you remember you have a mother and grandparents!!” Grandpa instantly started the moment he saw Markus entering.
But the next second, his demeanour changed, especially after watching Kizy by his grandson’s side.
“Child you look so thin!! Come, have a seat here. I will immediately ask the chef to prepare some healthy snacks for you.” Grandpa said while patting the seat next to him.
Kizy giggled after watching the difference in treatment towards her and Markus. To tease Markus further, she instantly left him and went to grandpa’s side, making Markus sulk behind her.
“No need to ask the chef. I have already prepared a lot of snacks for her.” Grandma said while entering the hall before looking at Kizy.
“Don’t forget to take them back with you. They can be stored and eaten anytime for almost a month. I have also prepared soup for you. Let’s finish that before it gets cold.” Grandma said, ignoring Markus completely, who was left standing at the door.
“You both do remember that you do have a grandson right?” Finally Markus asked in a sulking tone.
“No.” Grandpa said.
“Definitely not. Especially not the one who chases his family away who is there to meet their granddaughter in law and then disappears with her for an entire week.” Grandma chirped in.
“Grandma it’s not like that-” Kizy tried to speak, but grandpa interrupted her.
“You don’t have to worry Kizy. We will never blame you. But this brat needs to learn all this. I will have to discipline him.” Grandpa said.
“Grandpa? Like seriously? Wasn’t she there with me? Then how come I am the only one who is getting all the scolds?” Markus asked, now annoyed.
“Say another word and I’ll make sure you remain hungry till tomorrow morning.” Grandma threatened, making Markus instantly shut his mouth.
‘I was definitely adopted.’ Markus thought to himself while crying internally, watching grandpa, grandma and Kizy walk towards the dining room.
“Do you plan to keep standing there or join us for dinner?” Grandpa said, though his tone was reprimanding, anyone could tell how much he doted on Markus.
Markus instantly cheered up, even though he tried to show a poker face as if he couldn’t care less whether his grandparents asked for him or not.
He walked in slow steps towards grandpa, before instantly hooking his arm with grandpa’s like a small kid.
“Look at you. Being so pathetically clingy! Go away.” Grandpa said, trying to free himself from Markus grip and shoo him away, but ultimately stopped, liking it a little.
The dinner went on with usual rambling, the Evans mansion being so lively after many days.
“Where is mother?” Kizy asked, remembering that Mary should be off work by now.
“She is working overtime for their recent project. She won’t be joining us today.” Grandma replied.
“Mother is truly dedicated to her work. I admire her a lot!” Kizy said in a sincere tone.
“That’s called ‘not paying attention to your own health’ and not some DEDICATION!” Markus said, taunting from the side, feeling a little bad for his always busy mom.
“Look who’s saying. If not for my call, didn’t you plan to work some more and go back home late?” Grandma asked.
“Anyways, when are you leaving for country F?” Grandpa asked, getting serious all of a sudden.
“I had planned to leave this weekend but matters on the other side are escalating a lot. Hence I am planning to leave tomorrow evening itself.” Markus said while throwing a glance at Kizy, who as expected choked on her food.
“Here.” Grandma instantly passed Kizy a glass of water.
Kizy apologetically looked at grandma before gulping the entire glass down.
In reality, Kizy hadn’t choked on her food, but she felt something heavy hitting her chest when she heard Markus was leaving tomorrow.
She was still hesitating to let Markus go all by himself. After all, they had been through a life and death battle once, so it wasn’t wrong of her to worry about Markus.
Rest of the dinner went on casually, with grandpa asking a few more questions to Markus and him answering them all.
Alas, the couple was allowed to leave the mansion only when it was late at night.
“You seem quite zoned out today.” Markus commented while driving his black maybach, without turning to look towards Kizy.
“Hmmm?” Kizy asked, not understanding what Markus said.
“Is something bothering you?” Markus asked, not diverting his attention from the road ahead.
“You.” Kizy said after a moment.
“Don’t tell me that my charm has made you go crazy.” Markus said, trying to uplift her mood.
“You and charm? Are these two words even related?” Kizy asked, coming out of her thoughts, knowing that this was exactly what Markus wanted.
“I can smell jealousy.” Markus said, lifting one brow playfully.
“And I can see ugliness.” Kizy refuted, finally making Markus look at her.
“You-” Markus was speaking when Kizy cut him off.
“Look ahead Mr. Devil reincarnation or else you would get both of us killed.” Kizy said while giggling, looking at Markus’s stoic face.
But the next moment Markus was all serious.
“Not letting you die until I am alive.” Markus said, turning his face to look towards the road.
And Kizy’s heart skipped a beat, knowing that this was not just a random statement but something that Markus meant from the bottom of his heart.
She kept looking at him, not knowing how she ended up getting all the lady luck on her side by having Markus for a lifetime.
“Stop drooling, little lamb.” Markus said, trying to lighten the heavy atmosphere.
Kizy kept quiet for a moment before bending ahead.
“What are you-” Markus was speaking when he received a lightning speed peck on his cheek and before he could react, Kizy was back on her spot.
He instantly slammed the breaks, making Kizy stunned at his actions.
“This is cheating.” Markus said, loosening his tie.
“What do you mean?” Kizy asked, not quite understanding what Markus was talking about.
“Do you take me as some random four year old kindergarten kid?” Markus asked, his voice unusual.
“Huhh? No. I mean-” Kizy was still speaking when Markus removed his tie, before interrupting her.
“Do it again.” Markus said.
“Do what?” Kizy asked foolishly.
“Kiss!! How can you kiss me when I am not paying any attention. I want that kiss back Markus complained.
“You must be kidding right?” Kizy said, half laughing and half ‘not believing you’ expression.
“No.” Markus said, his tone dead serious.
Kizy waited for another minute, but looking that Markus wasn’t showing any signs of starting the car, she finally said –
“Ok. But only one.” Kizy said and bent forward, about to kiss Markus’s cheek.
But Markus slyly turned his face at the last moment, capturing Kizy’s lips before she could back up.
He instantly held Kizy’s face with one hand, the other hand placed behind her nape as he deepened the kiss, his lips sucking hers, while Kizy closed her eyes, giving in without any resistance.
Her lips were the intoxicating drink, her body a drug and Markus could no more restrain himself from being an addict.
He bit her lower lip and sucked it harder, making her part her lips, giving him the access he wanted.
Every cell within him wanted to wrap himself around her, wanting to merge her into him, feel every single part on her body, not leaving any part unexplored while he marked her body with his kisses.
And Kizy knew that his touch was becoming her habit, his kisses her craving and his body her safe place.
She never wanted to leave his arms and get up, never wanted this moment to end, and never for a tomorrow to arise where he would leave her all by herself.
She knew Markus was feeling nothing less than what she felt for him, and this feeling made it even harder for her to let him go.
In no time, her hands were in his hair, her tongue in his mouth, exploring him the way he always did, tasting him, memorising him.
Markus let her take her time before finally breaking the kiss, looking straight into her eyes.
“I’ll miss you.” Markus said, his tone containing a hint of sadness, even when he tried to mask it with his love.
“Me too.” Kizy said before hugging him tight, not wanting to let him go.
The couple stayed like that for some more time, silently enjoying each other’s company without ruining the serene moment with their words, cause both of them knew that their feelings were way more than what some mere words could express.
Finally Kizy let Markus go, shifting back to her position before looking at him.
“Let’s go home quickly! I don’t wanna waste tonight while simply sitting here like this.” Kizy said, her cheeks flushing red from what she was hinting at.
“Wifey!! You are improving. And” Markus paused before bending ahead.
“I love this boldness.” Markus whispered in her ear, his voice magnetic, creating ripples of weird sensation in her heart.
“Drive!!” Kizy said, pushing him back, feeling a little embarrassed.
Markus chuckled, and had a hearty laugh after teasing his little lamb before resuming their drive back home.
As soon as they closed the bedroom door, Kizy was already into Markus’s arm, slamming her lips into his, as her hands found themselves lost in his hairs.
His hair was her favourite place, his silky locks between her fingers, as she would be lost in him.
Markus placed his hand behind her back, pulling her closer, pressing her into his chest, as her tongue fought with his, playing a fierce battle, where both of them were bound to lose.
Finally Markus let her take the lead, knowing this was the last night they were spending together before he went away, and he wanted to make Kizy happy.
And Kizy didn’t waste this opportunity, exploring his hot cavity, her tongue doing magic to his body.
But finally Markus lost it, his patience running out as he tore her dress away, before carrying her to the bed, putting her down in one swift motion before climbing on top of her.
The couple kissed once again, their bodies on fire as their bodies merged into one, setting their own pace.
TWO HOURS LATER
Knowing that Kizy was fast asleep, Markus freed himself from her hug, replacing a pillow for his arm and covering her properly before moving towards the balcony.
He called a number he hadn’t dialled for the past few months and surprisingly, the person picked up the call on the very second ring.
“You’re still awake!” Markus said, his tone low but a little surprised.
“Yeah. Do you have some problem with that?” The man on the other side said, his voice calm.
“Nahh. How is she doing?” Markus asked, his tone unable to hide his worry.
“Better. She tires me all day. I am literally running everywhere behind her, yet she complains.” The man said, affection visible in his voice.
“That’s great.” Markus said, imagining the scene while chuckling a little.
“But I am glad that I have her. She never leaves me alone, in fact I can say that she is truly fond of me and likes me.” The man said, his voice contented.
“Good. Anyways, I called to inform you about something.” Markus said, his tone serious now.
“About leaving tomorrow.” The man answered, as if already knowing what Markus had in his mind.
“You are one good opponent.” Markus praised sincerely, something that he rarely did.
“I would take that as a compliment.” The man said, chuckling.
“So, yes I am leaving tomorrow. I know I shouldn’t be telling this to you, but take care. I won’t be here and I don’t know when and how I’ll return back.” Markus said, sighing.
“You shouldn’t be doing that to her.” The man on the other side said.
“I have no option.” Markus said helplessly.
“Take care.” The man said with all sincerity.
“You too.” Markus said and ended the call, feeling heavier with the thought of leaving Kizy all by herself.
