His Last Valentine #ReadersChoice Award

Completed G

Summary: Of all holidays, Valentine's Day had to be the one that restauranteur Shaurya Khanna harbored the most disdain for.

Only fools or those with ulterior motives, had use for the contrived "Day of Love."

Once he had been such a fool, but this year her we will become the latter, now that life had handed him the opportunity to payback the one who shattered his illusions during a time best forgotten. Sure: he would lose the best chef on his team, but it was the female in question who had put herself in harm's way. Did Mehak Sharma really think she could take up a position at her former schoolmate's restaurant without facing the consequences of the past?

But, will Shaurya give up his plans for revenge when out of nowhere Mehek is suddenly threatened by someone way more dangerous than he? Author's Note: A short story told via a series of flashbacks. Present day is defined by bold text, Anything in italic is a scene from the past....enjoy!
