Veer's pov.
"I should have known that, she is a genius in tech. She ain't that easy." Rudra's voice rang in my ears but didn't reach my ears. I was still occupied by her last words that she said to me. And I knew she wasn't bluffing, she made a promise and fucking meant it. She wanted me to back down.
Her voice was filled with venom, a dark aura covering it, her eyes held a fire in them, she wasn't afraid of me or anything. Even if the devil would come and threaten her to marry me I knew she would fight him and send him back to hell. Where people were scared of my stone cold face, she had the audacity to enter my personal space and make a promise that she would ruin my life.
And both of us knew she could do it, if she wanted to. Today was just a trailer, she was coming after me. When I entered the cafe and saw her in that tight fitted clothes something in me snapped. I was furious at her but still I admired her beauty. Her pale skin to her soft features

Ananya's pov. I was again getting ready for the dinner with the Oberois, only the difference was that I knew what was going on. I knew who was coming, for what purpose and I was going to say yes. Forever. This was it. It was my fate. But the strange thing was that after all that chaos, Veer didn't say anything. He was quiet. All along. I wondered what was cooking up in that big head of his. I didn't bothering apologising for the whole virus drama, even though I knew it was a extreme measure from my side, and I felt guilty about it. I made a mental note to do it tonight and then ask him what was he thinking. I went downstairs only to find Ma fretting over small things and as to how everything needed to be perfect since her daughter's soon to be husband is coming for dinner. Everything looked perfect according to me, and she didn't needed to do that, but then again who was I to stop her. I knew she would make sure t
Ananya's pov. I always knew that my guardian angels were actually having picnic when my fate was written, because at every point in my life, it was necessary to have drama. Or may be it was just my family who loved drama. Fate always had plans for me already, she made sure to make my life a God damn series with no ending, every ending had a twisted beginning. Here I thought that the dinner would go well since I had agreed to the wedding and then in just a week I would be married. But no, there has to be a drama. So the drama started since my beloved brother decided it has to be today where he would run away with Ruhi, his girlfriend for past 4 years. "What the actual fuck?" Rudy screeched like a hyena that Shori had to clamp his hand over his mouth and he pulled him behind the wall, caging him. If I didn't knew that they both were straight, I would have believed that they had chemistry. The position was quite compromisi
Ananya's pov. Few moments before "We can't let them see Ritesh and Ruhi, or it would be disaster." My voice was a whisper, but frantic. I locked my eyes to Veer's to find that he was already looking into mine and then the bulb in my head lit up. I knew the idea was stupid, but it was because of his proximity that had made me loose my sanity. Also it had been one of my fantasies ever since I had seen him. Before he could react, or my sub conscious could butt in and stop me from doing it, I pressed my lips to his by pulling him close by the lapels of his coat. His arms around me stilled and his heart beat increased under my palms and my heart stopped beating. I didn't move my lips, they remained still on his, waiting for the worst to come. Rejection. After nearly 3 seconds, he responded back. His arms tightened around my waist as he pulled me up on my tip toes, my arms going around his neck, and I tugged at the end of his black locks.
Veer's pov. Her chocolatey taste still lingered in my tongue, I could feel her jade smooth skin under my hands, and ever since that kiss all I wanted was more of her. I always wanted to see that tattoo of hers clearly since we first met, but today I felt it's ink under my palm, her lavender smell and chocolatey tongue acted like heroine and I was fucking addict at the first taste. It was surprise for me when she called me and invited me to dinner and agreed to marriage, aftr whatever she did today. I had to give her the credit that she was not only smart but brave. What she did was crazy but at the same time brave. The girl had guts, not only she was able to invade my mind, but now she was also stirring something inside me. I knew that feeling but I wasn't ready to accept it yet. After what my father did to my mother such kind of attachment had always been on my black list. But there she was Ananya, she didn't even know but she was on my mind all
Ananya's pov There are times when you realize that whatever you are doing is wrong and everything that you believed your whole life was a big myth. That's what happened to me. I always believed that you can run away from love, it makes you weak, I knew that I would run away before I would fall for a person. Oh, How wrong I was. I didn't even realize that I was falling for Veer and by the time I knew it, I was gone too deep. Deeper then the ocean. I almost crossed the crust level of earth, I was in the mantle. That deep I was in for Veer. It wasn't his jerk attitude that attracted me, it were the stories that I heard about from Rudy. As to how much a teddy bear he is when it comes to his sister and Nani. As to how amazing brother he is and he might not say it but he neever take things for granted. And last night when I was told his story I realized that he was no different from me, his parents were fucked up, just like mine and we knew the pain of being abandone
Ananya pov. I was dressed up in a pink gown with my hair tied up in a low bun, a few strands of hair brushing my face that were left intentionally. The gown was floor length and it was a half meter extra long from behind clearly sweeping the floor. The top hugged my body beautifully it was a tight fit that made my curves visible, and the straps were a little thin so my tattoo was clearly visible. A bracelet adorned my wrist and I fiddled my pendant, it was actually the letter A. And no I was not one of those girls who were obssessed with their names, the A stood for Anahita, my birth mom. I knew she would have been so happy if she was here, but at least I could have something that made me feel that she was with me. I tried not to ponder over it much but it was difficult to not cry and think about her. Every time I thought about Mom, at least a tear would drop from eye. A kiss on my forehead, followed by a gentle caress broke my train of thoughts.&nb
Veer's pov. The moment she came downstairs with Ruhi in her pink gown, with her as usual minimal makeup, and fiery brown eyes laid on me, I knew I was doomed to be. She was going to be my wife in just 48 hours, and as much as I was happy about it, I was shit scared. Scared of the feelings that she gave me. Scared of the possibility that she might leave me when she would learn about my past. When she would learn what a real coward I was. How did I let my mother die? I knew that I could see anger, adoration, respect, admiration and lust in her eyes for me, and I would be fine. But today I could see the another feeling enveloping them, I knew it was the sacred word. The territory that I had blacklisted in my life long ago. And no chance in hell i was going to jump into it. So I did the same thing that I always did to the women who were getting deep with me. Act like a douche. Only this woman was not like others, she was different. I cou
Ananya's pov. Tears threatened to spill from my eyes when I saw the prenuptial agreement that Veer sent me. I remember the teasing that I got from Ma that my to be husband has send me something as a gift before marriage. And even though it was hard to believe, I did pay attention to her words and now, damn it hurt like a bitch. I wondered where did I go wrong with him, ever since I agreed to this relationship I have tried to make truce with Veer, but he being the dork he isn't getting the hint. I almost cried when I held those papers in my hands, but I controlled myself. I reminded myself of the promise that I made to Ma and Rudy. I wasn't going to give him ignorance in return of it. I knew the only way to break his walls was by winning his trust. Though we both had trust issues, and I knew that the marriage doesn't work one way, but to make it better, I was going to take the intiative and I knew he would come around. But that looked diffcult to m
Ananya's pov Aryan, Veer and I were again in Veer's office where I was patiently listening to those two cunning men as they told me their ploting against that man, and to be very honest I was surprised as to how their mind worked. Somewhere for the first time in my life I was scared of Veer, because this was not a cunning or a manipulative business man, the one sitting in front of me was a man with a Vendetta, he was scary. "So you mean to say that you were planning for it for years?" I exclaimed not believing my ears. "I was Tanya's date for one of the business parties where I learnt that she was Arvind's daughter. From that day onwards I knew that I was going to destroy him because he destroyed my family. It was a well known fact that I was going to be the CEO of the oberoi Empire, and so I started playing my game the very same day." Aryan Khanna was Veer’s closest friend apart from Rudy. I had known about it even before we got married. But what surprised me was his childish na
Veer’s pov Communication with Anu was always a different kind of thrill, because her reactions are always unexpected to me in most of the circumstances. I thought she would cry listening to my sob story and might even pity my childhood, but instead I got the title of phoenix. The amount of trust, love and care she has for me always scared me. The more her expectations and belief in me increased, the more my pride grew but at the same the fear of disappointing her as well. It like a vertical lines of a railway track, they go side my side but never meet each other. “Come on, let’s have dinner.” I said moving away from Anu kissing her cheek softly. We sat at the dining table having dinner our conversation moving around our days, and some funny stories of my dear wife playing pranks on her friends or brothers that had us laughing out loud. We sat at the balcony of our room looking at the city lights of the busy city when Anu questioned me out of the blue that threw me off. “Do you
Ananya’s pov I woke to the warmth of my man, and his breathes hitting my face, with my whole body over him. How did I end up on bed from the railing, I didn’t bother answering the question popping up in my head. I took my sweet time looking at the beautiful creation made for me. “It’s rude to stare, Anu.” A smile crept its way to my lips while I pressed my lips to his cheek, giving him a big smooch, popping a dimple on his face. In turn I was turned on my back with him over my chest, cushioning it as a pillow, he went to sleep again. “I want to sleep. Don’t disturb.” A warning left from his mouth as he pulled the comforter over us. I smiled and cuddled to him, tightening my hold over him. A few minutes later of closing my eyes, I realized I couldn’t sleep anymore, so I left the bed, with so much difficulty pushing Veer off me. I had ordered us breakfast, a proper English breakfast for my husband while heavy Indian breakfast for me. I went under the shower while lathering my body
Ananya's pov The whole day I spent with Veer making up for the lost time with my husband. And no, we did not made love or had sex for once in the whole time. Instead we spent the whole day decorating our house, making it more homey watching movies and then lazing around.“We need to decorate the house.” He said looking around the walls. “I think it is fully decorated and there is no need for any makeover of something.” The penthouse was pretty much aesthetic if you would ask me. It was definitely very cool and I liked when I visited it the first time. “Yeah, I know. But it doesn’t feel like home.” A smile graced my lips when he talked to me and continued looking around. And that’s how we started decorating our penthouse giving it a homey feel by placing our favorite flowers in the flower vase, hanging some family pictures besides the stairs wall that led to our room. Veer placed a picture of us at his study table with me kissing on his cheek and smiling softly with his eyes close
Ananya's pov “Anu, I am going to office and would come early. A business associate has thrown a party for his fifth marriage anniversary and we need to attend it. Be ready by 7 tonight.”Veer’s voice rang in my ears while I pulled the duvet over my head because the devil husband of mine had removed the blackout curtains and was ready in his crisp suit looking as handsome as ever.I squinted my eyes open at him in annoyance while he smiled softly at me. He threw rob over me and walked out of the room taking his phone with him.“I am making breakfast, come down in 10.”A groan of disapproval escaped my lips while I dragged my lazy ass out of the bed to the bathroom to freshen up. It had been few months since we shifted to Mumbai and things have been going well since then.Sarah and Nani were in London, while Mamu and Mami are in Punjab and Veer and I have been living here in Mumbai and to be honest I have never been happy.We have the whole house to ourselves with no disturbance of any
Ananya's pov Rehan’s death was the shock in the family. It was his funeral today. Mama and Mami were inconsolable and Sarah was mourning over her brother’s death. Veer and Nani on the other hand were completely silent. They were doing all the rituals that required to be done but I knew there something going on.Veer was sitting on the sofa, a five o’clock shadow marring her face, giving him a regal look. Placing my hands on the either side of his head, I pressed my fingers to his forehead, applying pressure. He didn’t say anything but I could see the stiffness in his posture had started to loosen up. After few minutes he stopped me from doing anything and grabbing my wrist he sat me down beside him, holding me to his chest.“What are you worried about Veer?”My voice held concern but I got no reply, instead a quick peck on my forehead and a tightened hold on me.“Nothing important.”When in reaction he got was my death glare he chuckled slightly and then sighed heaving a deep breathe
Ananya's pov It was true that I hated Tanya but knowing that she was the person who might have helped Rehan escape mixed that hatred with anger. I couldn’t believe that she would do so much.“That doesn’t matter how I know that Rehan was last seen with Tanya Shrivastav. I want him behind the bars as soon as possible.”Veer barked into the phone. Ever since I told him that Tanya might be the person helping Rehan it felt like there was switch to his anger. He busted.Even Nani was worried.I walked to him where he was barking orders at his poor detective, who must have scared to death by my angry man and snatched his phone away.“Daniel, this is Ananya. Find Rehan but don’t overwork yourself. Please take care.”And then I cut the call, only to see the furious face of my man glaring daggers at me. Holding his hands I wrapped his arms around me and placed my chin on his shoulder, his arms wrapped around me but the tension did not leave his body.“We’ll find him soon and for that you need
Veer’s povIt surprised me how life works. I thought a true man writes his own life but clearly I was wrong. I remember my Nanu telling me that one day I would find a girl who would turn my world upside down.And all I did was just laugh at that time. But now that I looked at the woman in my arms I wondered if he was true. Surely he was. My wife was the only woman who was on my mind and my body all the time. I expected her to pity me as an orphan when I told her about my past but all she did was cry for my pain and curse my parents.Even my mother.Mostly people who knew about my past pitied her but a part of me as a son was angry on her for leaving her children in this world to live a life of an orphan. The person who truly understood me without even telling me was my wife.The conversation with Anu in the office had an impact on her. She was quiet since she came home and wasn’t talking to me. She responded to me though but it was like she was holding herself back. It was true that I
Ananya’s povI was waiting for Veer in his office while he had gone to attend his meeting. I was at peace now that everything was falling in place. I had ordered food for us wishing that it wouldn’t take long for Veer to complete his meeting otherwise the food would get cold.My phone rang in the silent office making me jump in fright leading me to hit the side table and the files placed on it fell. I ignored the ringing of my phone and started placing those files back together in place.My eyes caught a particular heading and the curiosity in my body forced me to peek into it. Though it was wrong for me to go through Veer’s office files behind his back but the title was so much of importance for me to not look at.My breath caught in my throat when I went through the contents of the file. Everything made sense to me then, all the questions of mine were answered when I looked into the contents of it. It was clear to me that he had a motive behind that deal but now that I got a clearer
