"Sir," she stammered, her voice laced with a tremor that betrayed her initial composure. "What are you doing?"

Before she could retreat, Vikram's hand snaked around her waist, his touch sending a jolt through her. He didn't give her a chance to escape. Instead, he gently guided her towards the desk, her protest a whisper lost in the sudden urgency that filled the air.

Their gazes locked, a silent battle of wills. Maithri, eyes wide with a mix of apprehension and a strange yearning, saw a flicker of vulnerability beneath Vikram's usual stoicism. It was a glimpse that both surprised and unsettled her.

“Vikram, a man sculpted by ambition, had always maintained a cool distance. Yet, the sight of Maithri, her lips slightly parted, a blush creeping up her neck, ignited a firestorm within him. He leaned closer, the space between them evaporating.

"Don't go," he murmured, his voice husky with an emotion he couldn't quite define.

She closed her eyes, a soft moan escaping her lips against his. "Vikram, please," she whispered, her voice laced with a mix of surrender and a flicker of defiance.

A slow smile played on Vikram's lips as he pulled back slightly. "Yes, Maithri," he whispered, his voice a low rumble against her ear. "You can call me Vikram. And yes, darling," he added, his voice dropping to a husky caress, "I am your monster."
