Yashshwi cried hugging her knees silently cursing her fate. After about 10 minutes when she had nothing to cry she wiped her tears and got up washing her face. She came back slowly to room and picked a pillow and blanket from bed heading towards couch infront, and layed silently. She didn't wanted to sleep on his bed or make him more angry.

While laying she didn't realised when she drifted off to sleep. Here In studyroom Vardaan finished his work and headed towards room. He didn't glanced around and went to take shower. He took a deep breathe calming himself from the cold water running on his well built body. He turned the shower off and dropped a towel around his waist with other drying his hairs.

He stopped seeing her curled in couch sleeping like it's the most peaceful thing. Without realising He walked to the couch with unredable face and stared at her face intensly. She was perfect in every way. Innocence all over her face. He saw some dried tears still on her face and extended his hand to wipe them off but stopped clenching his jaw and fist as his mind mocked him. "Agh Vardaan Rajvanshi what has happened to you ? Get a grip".

He took his hand back and wore sweatpants laying on bed staring at ceiling, sleep far away from his eyes. He was like this, just sleeps for barely 2 to 3 hours. He sighed and glanced at her briefly turning to ceiling again. He was like this from the day someone special left him. Infront of him. Because of that he always gets panick attacks and nightmares which turned him into a complete beast. And now he was habitual of just sleeping for 2 to 3 hours. He sighed and checked the time. It was already 3:30 am. He sighed and closed his eyes drifting to sleep.

Around 5:30 Vardaan got up with a jolt and heavy breathe. Again that nightmares. Sweat all over his face and breathing ragged. He glanced around and ran his hand through his messy hairs, he gulped the water from nightstand in one go. He started trying to calm himself but his his mind kept wandering back to the nightmare.

He glanced around and saw couch empty and his eyes narrowed. "Where this trouble went this morning?". He checked whole rooms but didn't found her. He sighed and shrugged off saying to his mind that he doesn't care. He freshen up and headed to his gym for his morning routine.

Here downstairs Yashshwi was sitting infront of mandir of villa. Big idol of Kanha ji and radha ji was placed beautifully.

Yashshwi was sitting infront of mandir with that of aarti and Prasad. She joined her hands and bowed while touching their feets. "Hare Radhakrishna". She wispered and took a deep breathe. She was wearing a saree with vermillion and mangalsutra, red bangles, anklets, and lastly small earrings with no makeup just baby cream and lipgloss.

Lastly she took Prasad smiling. She took a small amount of red sindoor from thaal and applied on her bindi and some on her hair parting. As she turned she saw Aashi standing with Shivani smiling. Yashshwi smiled back awkwardly. They both marched to her and said putting her head "you are looking so beautiful beta, bhagwaan se sundar si bahu mangi thi aone Vardaan ke liye unhone ne serious hoke sighed Pari hi de di". She said making Yashashwi gulped at yesterday night's incident.

Her chain of thought were broken by Adrika and Mayra who were running towards her. Her eyes widened but before she could do something they hugged her tightly. "Bhabhiiii !!!" She blinked gulping at new title and said slowly "ah n..no I am younger then you two call me by my name". Adrika and Mayra stared at her along with Aashi and Shivani. But Adrika laughed breaking the silence and said "still in relation bhai is elder so you are also elder for us". Yashshwi hesitated and said "b..but it's weird". After thinking much Mayra said "then she is our Nanhi si bhabhi".

Aashi and Adrika burst out laughing at nickname. Yashshwi blinked turning pink at the unique name. Aashi asked suddenly "ah Okay My Nanhi si beti today is your first rasoi so.....do you know how to cook?". Shivani chirped before Yashshwi. "Ah leave it na bhabhi ma. I will make she will just add sugar and the rituals will be done don't embarrass her, such a cute Nanhi si beti". Aashi laughed and said "still as Vardaan's grandmother's ritual she have to make it. Kyu Nanhi si beti Bana logi na ?". Yashshwi is shock till now nodded fastly "ji m...ma I know how to cook". She went led by Mayra and Adrika inside kitchen.

Here upstairs Shrivansh and Vivaan watched all this and stared at eachother silently. Suddenly Vivaan said breaking the silence, "she looks innocent, doesn't she?". Shrivansh nodded curtly and said "her father was so cruel. I wonder what if he thought to get money and sell her daughter like nothing. When I and Vardaan bhai asked for file, he denied. And threated that if he doesn't marries her daughter along with high amount of money and lessen his burden he will not give the file.

Vivaan sighed and said turning to him "but she is trapped to a devil now" Shrivansh thought something and said "I myself don't know what the future holds Vivaan, let's try something to know her innocence is real or fake" he said making Vivaan raise an eyebrow, Shrivansh called someone and said something before Turing to Vivaan. "Come with me and don't you dare tell this to bhai". Vivaan nodded slowly and followed him.

In Vardaan's room, He came out of shower after his gym routine only in sweatpants and nothing upper. Water droplets on hairs, abs and also chest making him look like insanely handsome. He ran his fingers through his hairs before picking his phone and call someone to talk to walking out of room and roaming in hallways. His face holding just coldness and nothing else along with just orderness in his voice.

Here Yashshwi done her cooking like she made for whole house. She smiled and clicked a picture of it sending to Isha (second female lead and her bestfriend). She took some in a thaal walking to hallways. She felt her earrings stuck in hairs and putted thaal in nearby table fixing it.

Here Vardaan was walking without seeing forward with one hand on phone working and other on call to his ear. "Just do as I said a-" Before he could complete he bumped on her back. Yashshwi narrowed her eyes and turned around angrily. Vardaan stared at her form who was looking like a goddess. A newly wedded bride.

Her eyes widened like saucers seeing the person. The devil himself. Mr.Hassel.

Yashshwi gulped hard and mumbled slowly "s..so..sorry". He came out of his thoughts and said in low yet dangerous voice "don't you have eyes Mrs.Rajvanshi?" His voice harsh yet cold making her shiver. She quickly said apologizing "a...ahh so..sorry I.. I was...f..fixing m..my e..earrings which.. which got stuck in my h..hairs i..i am sorry Mr.Rajvanshi".

She said making his eyes flicker to her earrings. As he inhaled deeply her lavender cologne filled his nostrils making his earlier nightmare turmoil vanish. He grabbed her hand tightly pulling her flush to him. She gasped slightly gulping hard, slowly pink colour spreaded her cheecks.

He slowly leaned till his nose was touching her ear making her shiver. He carefully fixed the earing and quickly backed away realising what he did clearing his throat loudly yet harshly. "Next time see where you are going Mrs.Rajvanshi or else I am not a sweet person to listen something, I will throw you from this floor" he said coldly making her curse him in his mind.

"O..okay I.. I...w..will,..n..n-" Before she could complete his anger spiked at her stutter. "Can't you talk normally ! Is stuttering your habit huh!? Listen carefully I don't like people who stutters UNDERSTAND!" He said making her flinch badly and she nodded fastly with thumping heart. "Now go!" He roared making her look at him in horror. "C..chodiye toh" she said in low voice which almost cracked making something stirr in his chest but he ignored it.

He quickly left her hand and backed away walking out of there. As he walked away leaving Yashshwi scared badly. She sobbed silently and wiped her tears crusing him under her breathe (ha ha Gali de le tu pehle 👀🤡😭) She walked to mandir with thaal and putted bhog, and walked to kitchen again.

Here Vardaan walked to his room and lighted a cigarette puffing it while looking out of window. His mind wandering to her sobs he heard when he walked here. His phone ringed taking him out of his thoughts. "Hello?" He answered in his usual cold and dangerous deep voice.

"Sir ? He is not opening his mouth it have been 6 days now." The man infront said with slightly fear in his voice. "Then do what we always do with people like these". The guard confused a little asked "what sir ?". Vardaan gritted his teeth and said "do i need to tell you what to do HUH !!!" the guard shaked on other side and said shaking "s..sorry boss, I..I will quickly call shadow"

With that he cutted the call quickly. Vardaan threw his phone making it shattered on groud. "Bloody bastards" he cursed them and walked to get dressed.

Here downstairs everyone were present on dining hall for breakfast, as Aashi looked at the various dishes she said "bachha? Did you made for whole house? I said you to just make a sweet dish". Yashshwi hesitated and said slowly "b..but maa i..I wanted to complete the rituals not like just completing formality"

Aashi smiled and patted her cheeck. "Such a daughter in law i got". Yashshwi smiled and headed to kitchen to get sweet dish. Suddenly heavy yet commanding footsteps echoed making clear the lucifer is here. Vardaan walked to hall with his stoic expression and sat busy in his phone.

As Yashshwi saw him, she hided in kitchen pillar deciding not to go until Mr.Hassel go. Aashi sensed the tension and didn't pushed. Adrika looked at Yashshwi and said "Nani bhabhi? Aaiye na aap bhi khaiye". Vardaan heard her and turned his cold eyes to kitchen.

"Come here Mrs.Rajvanshi" . He said coldly making her gulp. Slowly she walked forward. "Sit and eat". He said and focused on his own food. Yashshwi sat beside Adrika and started eating silently. Vardaan stood up and walked out of villa for office. Vivaan followed him behind silently.

Shrivansh saw Yashshwi walk to kitchen. He followed her behind silently. He entered and saw her taking deep Breathes like she was holding them for now. He sighed slightly before uttering softly "bhabhi maa?" . She froze at the word. Bhabhi Maa? But wasn't she younger then him ?

She slowly turned around to face him "y..yeah?". "Are you alright? I know that...Vardaan bhai is a bit cold and also rude. But...due to some reasons he is like this, trust me he is...anither Vardaan beneath that devil one, I know I am making you confuse but I can't tell the reason, bhai will tell you once he is comfortable enough, and...try to not make him much angry, Okay bhabhi maa?". He said making her slowly nod "o..okay M..M..Mr.R..Rajvanshi" he raised an eyebrow at the nickname

"Mr.Rajvanshi?, call me By my name Bhabhi maa". He said making her hesitately utter "p..par aap hamse bade hain". She said making him smile at her innocence. "Phir bhi Nanhi bhabhi aap hamse rishte mai badi hain, better call me bhaiya instead". He said making her nod with a small smile. He bidded goodbye and walked out of kitchen for office.

In office ~~

Shrivansh entered his cabin putting his coat aside. He stood against the big glass window thinking about something. Just then a knock intruppted his thoughts, "May I come in sir?" The voice was exhausting, like the person had ran marathone. "Come in" he said coldly in his deep voice.

A girl entered wearing casual clothes. "Sorry sir I got late a little". Shrivansh turned to her and said glancing at time in his wrist watch "you are 6 minute 37 seconds late Miss...Isha khurana". She rolled her eyes and said "I said sorry okay ? I w..was busy with something".

He raised an eyebrow "what so important Miss.Khurana?". Isha sighed and said "it's my personal matter sir". He poked his tongue in his cheeck and nodded slowly "yeah.... PERSONAL matter. Where is my schedule?". Isha rolled her eyes and putted the iPad infront of him.

He scanned the schedule and said "arrange this meeting tomorrow, ask Vardaan sir first, and also br-"

"Bring your black coffee, with no sugar i know". She said cutting him in between. He gritted his teeth and said "I don't like when people cut me off. Understand". She shrugged off and said "If this is the matter then now i am in love to cut you off" she said making him grit his teeth.

"Isha don't test my patience". He said and she rolled her eyes nit arguing much. "Prepare for next meeting and yeah....take these files to Vardaan sir".

She nodded and walked out. As he felt she had went completely, he pulled out his phone and called Dev. [His secretary] before saying in his commanding and ordering tone. "Find about Isha's mother's treatment and also talk to doctor that who comes and goes with her".

Dev quickly agreed and disconnected the call. Shrivansh stared at his phone then back to the glass window before uttering in low voice. "I am not gonna let you ruin your life Isha". And sat on his seat working.

Next scene

Vivaan was in way to office being a little late cause Shrivansh gave him some work. He was driving silently, suddenly a girl stood infront of his car making his eyes widened. He quickly picked breaks and turned the car to other side causing it to get unbalance a little.

He angrily glared at figure standing infront and unbuckled his belt moving to her. He grabbed her arm roughly and pulled her making her hairs hit his face. As his eyes fell on her, he froze. It was Naira. His bhabhi's elder sister. He knew her...somehow. he saw her in temple that day.

"Kya hai ? Apne Mera haath kyu pakad rakha hai?". She said angrily making him snap out of his thoughts. He cleard his throat and left her hand. "Why you came suddenly infront of car? Are you perhaps blind princess?". He asked making her eyes narrowed. "Shutup, you were blind, a old women was crossing and just your car was running, no body else's, it was red signal, still you were driving sir".

His eyes flashed with amusement and he said with mockery. "I am Vivaan Rajvanshi Miss. I am made to break rules, I don't care about them" she rolled her eyes, "Because you are not human na, why will you". She said and walked off catching him off guard.

"Such a troublemaker you are princess...but this mouth of yours just made you fall in trap.". He said smirking and seeded a quick message to Dev. "I am sending you a picture of girl, I want her information in my office, In 10 minutes". He slided his phone back in his pocket and sat in car driving off to office 'after the singnal turned green' [yeah, pyarr ka Asar ho gya iske dimaag mai]

Here Dev stared at his screen with done yet cursing face. He was their friend, but being with them in underworld. He started working with them. He was not shocked at Shrivansh's order, cause he knew something was inside him. But he was in trauma and stress after seeing Vivaan's message. He gritted his teeth and cursed him before turning to his computer.

Next scene

In Vardaan's Office [around 9:30 pm]

He was sitting while reading some mails in his phone. With a heavy sigh he putted it aside and closed his eyes leaning his head on chair. His mind was occur with thoughts of girl he married. He gritted his teeth at himself and gulped the water in one go.

"Why the fuck are you affecting me Wife". Muttering under his breathe, he tighten his grip on glass. He sighed heavily calming himself down. Slowly he reached for his phone and opened the gallery, there she was. Wearing saree of today looking cute.

He pressed the photo and many options occurred, his thumb hovered over delete for a brief moment before cancelling. He stared out of glass window. "Get a grip Vardaan. What are you doing.". He cursed himself in mind.

He unlocked his phone again and stared at her picture which managed to calm his interior turmoil in one go. He stared at her picture briefly before sliding it in his pocket back. He took his coat and headed for Villa.

In Villa

Yashshwi was sitting with bored expression, sleepy face. Waiting for someone. [Offcourse her Mr.Hassel] while looking on wall again and again. "Oh come on Mr.Hassel aa bhi jaiye ab". She said frustratedly and a slight anger.

Just then footsteps echoed through the silent hall making her heart race, they were heavy, commanding. She looked behind and saw Him entering with Shrivansh and Vivaan looking hella stressed. As he saw her, he said harshly "why are you still awake?"

Yashshwi gulped and said slowly trying hard not to stutter "k..khana". His eyes narrowed and he said stepping forward in low and dangerous tone "I am not hungry, don't wait up like a real wife for me. You are nothing, Nothing for me. Can't you understand a simple sentence?"

Yashshwi silently lowered her head making Shirvansh and Vivaan sigh. Vardaan glared at her before adding "and yeah the guest room is prepared, move your things there and do not dare to enter in my room, got it!" Yashshwi nodded silently. He stormed off upstairs leaving her scared.

Shrivansh saw her upsetness and thinking something plopped in a chair. "Ahh Bhabhi maa, thankyou, i was hella hungry, now quickly reheat it i am eager to eat". Vivaan laughed and sat beside him "yeah Bhabhi maa. I am also hungry. Quickly give me food I am starving".

Yashshwi smiled at their antics and quickly went yo kitchen to reheat the food. Shrivansh gets notification from Dev. His eyes narrowed reading the message and information. He was hella angry at Isha now. He silently slided his phone back gritting his teeth.

Vivaan was busy in his own phone reading information about 'his princess'. He smirked and putted the phone back as Yashshwi entered with food plates and served them silently. They ate with God knows uncountable compliments.

Yashshwi smiled and after sometime walked to guest room. She sighed looking at designs. Black curtains, everything too perfect. She didn't liked at all. "Why the hell whole room is looking like kabrishtan?" She muttered to herself. She picked a small note copy from her bag and sat on bed noting some room decor things so she can buy tomorrow for her room.

"Okay, lights done, curtains done, plants done, some college accessories done. Okay now I can sleep". She said smiling and layed on bed keeping the note book away.
