It had been a month and Saloni had seen hell in her job. The men made all kinds derogatory comments on her. Some brushed along her body and even offered help in exchange of her body.

It was the end of another day an she stood leaning against sparking white sink, her breath came laboured. She replayed all she went through in past four weeks, it added to her anger. She lifted her eyes to meet that of her reflection, a smile stretching on to her lips. She was lying low, and now it was time for her to set her plan. The office premises had camera, not the loo. She had already managed to get in a phone and a sim. In a month or two, she was going to give Ravi Taneja a shock of his life.

Saloni started logging in early and left a little late, and she knew he wouldn't doubt as she made him pass the order. Saloni has riled up few men and as a punishment, her working hours increased. She had time and again Ravi Taneja riled up so that he doesn't doubt her. 

She finished her so called shift, wiping her hands on the uniform; she taped a box in one of the washroom's. Taking a deep breath, she stepped out, signed the house keeping register making her way to the bus stop. Once she was sure there was no one round, she pulled up her hoody walking in a different direction. Walking some distance, she flagged a taxi getting into it. She gave the direction and reached within an hour. Stepping out, she smirked staring at the building. She pulled off her hoody , finger brushed her hair walking straight. A guard pulled open the door giving her a bow. She handed her hoody and went straight to the elevator.  The doors slid open in a pent house, she stepped in moving straight to the huge window overlooking the buzzling city.  Sonali switched on her laptop, a mail made her smile. She was soon be able to finish this game soon.

Saloni leaned back against the head rest of her bed, her eyes shut. And all came back with full force, the fire, the screams. She felt raged but tiredness didn't allow her to open her eyes. She took a deep breath and all calmed. After a minute she was again taken back to those disturbing times again. Her eyes recalled the a group of men trying to strip her , their eyes full of hunger and lust. Saloni jerked up on the bed, her body sweaty and heart thudding with fear. She threw  a paper weight against the hard floor her anger reaching a new height. ''You created a maze, I will trap you in that.'' Saloni stared at a picture on the side table of her bed, a single tear trickled down her cheek. '' Count down begins.'' Starting tomorrow, she was to begin her second stage of her plan.

***

Ravi huffed in anger when a employee complained about janitor assaulting him . This wasn't the first time someone complained but day by day her audacity had been increasing. He asked for her to report immediately to his office.

Saloni smiled, ''Men!'' It was so easy to get them dance on others tunes. She knew what she was going to next. She made her way into his cabin , pushing the door open she stepped in and stood opposite to him, he hands crossed over her chest. Ravi scanned her face, his eyes dropping on to her chest. She wore a jumper like other janitors , her top buttons undone, giving him a glimpse of her cleavage. Ravi controlled, ''You assaulted an employee''

She leaned forward, her hands on his table, ''He should have kept his hands to himself. I am not anyone's property.''

''You are at my mercy and you will do as I say.''

''That doesn't mean you can pimp me.'' She replied her voice dripping venom. ''Tell me something, have you earned all this by pimping helpless women or yourself.'' Ravi pressed a button and blinds came down in  his cabin. He got up from his place and stood staring down at her. She looked determined and that drove him mad. ''You hate to see me strong'' She laughed on his face. 

''Don't play with fire.''

''Which fire? The on  that killed my husband and child? or the one which came out as a accident and destroyed everything we had. Tell me Taneja, if this business of your  is just to cover the one started by your mother all those years back.'' She hated herself for calling a elder low names but she had to. Ravi grabbed her shoulders and pushed her against the wall. ''How dare you?''

She winced in pain but covered it with a laugh. ''Truth hurts''  He increased the pressure  lifting her body up against the all. She laughed at him, her eyes piecing his. Her smirked held a strange attraction. Saloni parted her lips, fanning his face . His breath hitched, Saloni was an attractive girl and he was very well aware of that. He stared down at her as her breath came heavy, matching that of his. He could feel the heat building in him. ''Leave me now.'' She acted being affected by the proximity 

He let go walking away. ''get out.'' She fixed her clothes walking out. She made her way straight to the washroom. She knew she had the audience and she ha to keep the act. Once inside, she locked herself into a washroom. She smiled, while leaning onto his table, she had managed to place a bug under it and he thought she was fighting him. She whispered to self, 'what you see is a mirage, a perfect mirage and you will be trapped into it'

***

Saloni knew she was being watched on random days an she made sure she kept her act up. She knew a man had been following and quickly made her way to the small room she had rented in staff quarters. She shut the door behind and got inside the bathroom, she watched from the window as the man walked away. She pulled out her small phone and dialled a number. ''Give me an update.''

''He is selling one of Kaushal Kapoor's factory, its an auction.''

She huffed. ''Buy that factory. But, before that start a rumour, declare the land disputed. Submit a claim in name of Saloni Kapoor.''

There was silence. ''He will make your life hell''

''That's what I want. We need a distraction, once done, send me a message.''

***

Saloni has started the dangerous game of seduction, she turned Ravi's sane world upside down. The other day, he had caught her with her shirt unbuttoned and body wet. he cursed and she blamed him of being a pervert and walking in even after looking at 'cleaning in process' standee. 

Ravi couldn't think straight, he had been keeping an eye on her movements all along, not realizing that she was turning into an obsession. His thrust for revenge was pulling him closer to destruction, and Saloni was going to enjoy that.

***

After about 2 weeks, Saloni visited the old factory scanning the place, She had managed to create the legal disruptions but since she didn't defend her claim, Ravi was allowed to sell. And he sold it off in at a lower prize worried another claim coming by. Not realising, Saloni had planned that. He wasn't even aware that the game he thought he was winning was actually the trap, a big trap!

***

Ravi frowned when he watched Saloni flirting with one of the employee. He felt sudden rage building in his body. He couldn't stand her smiling at other man, he picked up the phone and asked for her. His right hand Vineet frowned,  Saloni was not good for his boss' sanity. He doubted the woman and decided to dig in. Not realizing she was a step ahead.
