Randeep's pov As soon as I finished the call ,I started to walk towards Elijah's study room. Elijah...my brother whom I admire the most and as look up to him as he always has been my inspiration. Though he is my cousin, he never made me feel like one and I always treated him as my own brother. When I decided to join the Mafia business with Elijah,my mother was the most upset. She in fact blamed Elijah for instigating me for the decision and then there was a huge argument between me and my mother. My father was reluctant but then supported me...but not wholeheartedly. But my mother was a tough nut to crack. When I started to work with Elijah,my mother stopped talking with me and after almost 2 years,she started talking to me….Thanks to bhai (Elijah) who convinced her and her relationship with me and Bhai got back to normal again. I have been working with him for almost 8 years and still my mother is very much reluctant about it as she fears for my safety. I totally understand her
Ankita's pov "Are you there?" I heard Elijah knocking the bathroom door from outside. "Why??" I asked him ,turning the shower off."Okay...Just asking as I didn't see you in the bedroom...carry on." He said to me. After some time I heard the sound of shutting the door which meant that he left."Aajib aadmi hai!!! (Strange man he is!!!)" I said to myself."No...no...he is normal...he was taking care of you..maybe he got tense as he didn't see me in the bedroom…" my heart argued with me."Oh please...maybe he thought that I ran away which burnt his ego..nothing else." My mind scoffed. "Such a bitch you are!! Why can't you see that it cares for you!!! Mark my words,a day will come when you will be the one who will do anything to stay with this man...then I will see who the right one is." My heart said proudly. "I think I didn't sleep well last night.. that's why these absurd thoughts of living with him are coming now...I will definitely sleep today after having my breakfast. " I sai
Ankita's POV "I can't do this. " I said to myself in frustration and closed the book quite loudly.I was sitting alone in my room with a book to read. But I was bored to death. 3 days ago, Tithi left for her home after staying with me for 4 days. I told her to stay for a day extra….in fact Elijah also told her the same but she was adamant to go home as Dad was handling the cafe alone. So I didn't force her much as she was correct in her place.I had done my breakfast and surprisingly Elijah didn't join me today. When I asked about him to Randeep ,he said that he was busy with some work….and not to forget ,he teased me also saying that I was missing Elijah."Truth is Truth,my dear" There comes my blood-pumping machine."I don't miss him….I just asked because he never did something like that before ." I justified myself . "As if I believe you." My heart said. I chose to ignore her.I went out of my room as I was feeling hungry though an hour ago I had my breakfast. Hey!! I am eati
Ankita's pov I was surprised ...it would be an understatement. I was beyond that.The hall was decorated with balloons and ribbons. The familiar faces were greeting me with wide grins on their faces."SURPRISE " Everyone shouted at me and suddenly the petals of rose started to shower on me. I looked up to see two girls from the 2nd floor showering flowers on me."Welcome to your baby shower ,wifey." I heard a husky whisper in my right ear. I turned on my right side to see Elijah smiling at me softly.I was too shocked to react. In fact I didn't have the sense to know that I was crying until Elijah wiped my tears away. I looked forward and saw that Mom and Tithi were coming towards me. They held my arms and took me towards the Chair which was decorated with flowers and ribbons. I sat there and everyone clapped.My family,Randeep and his family,Jenni and her family were there. I wasn't surprised that Elijah's parents weren't there...but somehow I was hurt.Everyone started to give m
Ankita's pov What I saw took my breath away. There Randeep was carrying wounded and unconscious Elijah with the help of Max who was his bodyguard. They went towards the elevator which means they were going towards the medical room.Without wasting time I waited for the elevator to be free and as soon as it got free, I rode it and went towards the medical room.I entered the medical room to see the Doctor checking him . Randeep was standing beside him and Max was in the corner. Elijah was lying there unconscious.I was literally sweating out of fear and tension."Bhabhi…" Randeep called me and stood beside me. "What happened to him?" I asked him anxiously. "It was an accident. " He said ,making me shocked. "Randeep." We turned towards the doctor ,hearing him calling Randeep."How's he ,Doctor?" I asked him ."Mrs Lockwood, he had got an injury on his forehead and I had taken the bullet out from his shoulder. Due to the pain and injuries he had high fever . Don't worry he will be
Ankita's pov I walked away from there and went inside my room,closing the door with a thud.I sat on the bed and unknowingly my eyes filled with tears."What the hell was I doing? He was kissing me and I was enjoying the kiss!!!!! How could I do this?" I said to myself in anger."Why ? Why can't you do this? He is your husband,someone who cares for you...then why don't you?" My heart asked me."No...never...yes he is my husband...but ...but I can't allow him to kiss me...it's wrong." I said to my heart."Tell me honestly, did you feel uncomfortable when you were so close to him?" My heart asked me.I thought about the time and surprisingly I didn't feel uneasy at all. "I didn't feel uncomfortable but It was wrong ...I am cheating on Aarush." I reasoned my heart. Tears fell from my eyes."Oh please...it is just an excuse. Tell me one thing..have you ever remembered Ayush these days? Did he come to your mind?" My heart asked me,making my eyes widened.It was serious that after that dr
Elijah's pov "Bhai,if you don't mind can I ask you something?" Randeep asked me."Yes,you can. " I kept the file aside and looked at him."Umm...Actually...the thing is...umm...Did you and Bhabhi fight?" He asked nervously. I raised my eyebrows in a questioning manner."I mean she is avoiding you..that's why." He asked me."Kind of...leave it...I will take care of it. By the way,did you connect with Jay? He isn't picking up my calls. " I asked Randeep."I had asked Jeet about it and he said that Jay had gone to the USA to sign a business deal. Jeet is in India though ." He said .I nodded my head.As soon as Randeep left the room,my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller id and picked the call up."Hello Father in law." I said."Shut up and listen to me,Today is Tithi's birthday as you know. So it's your duty to bring my daughter to my home today." He said."Old man,it's not the way you invite people...by the way,are you trying to say that I am not invited today?" I asked him
Ankita's POV I came out from the bathroom after taking a relaxing shower. After drying my hair,I sat in front of the mirror and applied moisturiser on my face and arms and applied Kohl in my eyes.I took the brush to comb my hair when I felt the itchiness on my belly….well,it's my daily dose now."Ufff...it's itching a lot." I said to myself as I rubbed my swollen belly to get some relief. While doing so ,the comb fell from my hand . I groaned in annoyance and tried to pick it up. But I couldn't because of my belly."How will I pick it up now!!!! Fuck." I swore loudly."You are having a baby,duffer...stop swearing." My heart and mind both yelled at me . I bit my lips and said sorry to my baby.I kept trying so that I could pick the comb up. I was so engaged in my mission that I failed to notice that someone had entered my room."Here," I looked up slightly to see Mrs. Lockwood (Elijah's mom) who picked up the comb and gave it to me,making me surprised.I took the comb and thank
