    In the dungeon,Dev remained silent, accepting his mistake of delaying meeting her when she was awake rather than waiting for the true culprit to reveal himself.

But you never did anything to explain it to me."Akshara continued her accusations, while Dev remained silent. "Every morning I've been disappointed that I haven't met you. I've had several rejections when I tried to meet you. Dear Devil, I have run out of love and strength. I'm completely out of blood, and I don't even have any tears in my eyes. I've gone insane because I keep asking myself why you pushed me away from you.""I have never pushed you away, and I promise never to.
