I was warm. Too warm. I opened my eyes to see Veer was wrapped around me like a koala bear and his warm breathes on my chest indicated that he was in deep slumber. More than half of his body weight was over me and I could feel my shoulder numb due to his weight. Damn, he was meaty enough to crush me under his weight.
I sighed when the events of last night crashed my mind. My emotional outburst, Veer assuring me and then how I let myself loose in his embrace. I remember the look on his face when I told him what I thought of him. He looked he had been slapped across his face. He looked defeated and hurt. In pain.
As far as I believed, the only way to pain my ruthless husband was by creating a hole in his chest and taking his heart out and I was never going to let that happen. No matter what he did or how much his actions hurt me, I was hopelessly in love with him and could even take thousands of bullets for him.
I sighed a

Ananya 's pov He walked through the corridor with me hanging over his shoulder like a potato sack. My blood rushed in the opposite direction and my face was red half because of the blood and half because of the embarrassment that I faced when a maid watched me over his shoulder. Safe to say I wouldn't be meeting with her in the eye for the rest of my life. And to top that he literally spanked me over my butt causing me to let out a painful moan, which was not because of the pain, because of the wait he was going to give me. I knew my husband was a man of his words and he meant it when he said that wouldn't be able to walk for a week wh
Saving Grace 32. Embarrassment.
Veer's pov The smell of sex lingered in the room as she slept in my arms leaving warm puffs of air on my neck that burnt me to my bones and I wanted her again. Cuddling was something that I never did after sex, but goddamnit, it felt like heaven when I held her in my arms. Even though she was sleeping like a log, her whole skin covered with red and purple marks she was the most beautiful woman I ever laid my eyes on. She knew the power she had over me and I shivered at the thought whether she would keep me safe or kill me with it. My wife was not just beautiful, she was cunning and manipulative who knew how to turn tables in her favor. I wondered whether I was just a pawn in her game or she really wanted me. My secretary told me she had manipulated the board of directors in her favor with her skills so well that had no choice but to accept her pruposal to setting up the main branch of Haynes corporation in India. I was surprised that she actually

Ananya's pov Sarah had a teasing smile on her face but none of us dared to talk about. She might be my friend but she was my sister in law and it was obvious that she didn't want to hear about her brother's sex life. "Bhabhi let's go for a walk to the nearby store. I am in the mood of shopping." Sarah chirped excitedly and I grimaced. One because I didn't like shopping and two I couldn't even stand without shaking my legs. "Maybe another time." I almost begged. The afteraffects of our yesterday afternoon activities were catching up to me and I was cursing Veer in my mind all day. It was very thoughtfull of him to give me bath in the morning but it turned out into two more rounds of rough sex in which I was wrapped around him in the shower and the other where he bent on the bathroom sink where he claimed how much I was his and how he was going to make sure that I would remain his forever. "You. Are. Min

Ananya's pov I embraced my best friend in one of my bear hugs while he laughed at my chidlike grin and my husband simply rolled his eyes at him. He looked annoyed and adding to it Rudy squeezed me more into him just to guage my husband's reaction. Preety much he did get it. My man was up on his feet pulling me into his arms glaring at my best friend almost killing him with the intensity of it. If it was someone else than I was pretty sure than the person would piss in his pants, however Rudy was immune to it. We three knew that Veer would do nothing but it was kind of fun to rile him up. I melted in his arms as they wrapped around me in a possesive fashion while he settled back in his seat pulling me shamelessly on his laps tightening his hold on me. And oh boy, how much I loved it. There was nothing as comfortable and protective then my husbands arms around me. Besides I didn't want to sit uncomfortably in front
Saving Grace 35. Best friends.
Ananya's pov I was lost and I knew I had lost everything that I claimed to be mine, the intensity of the black holes made me shiver in fear. He didn't know about my pyrophobia or anything about me. I couldn't remove my gaze away from him, even though it was blurry with the salty water flowing in them. His hand grip my forearm in death grip, it was strong but not enough to bruise me. He took me away from Sarah's room where she lied unconscious, Nani holding her on one side while the other members of the family surrounding her, to our room his neck had a red burnt mark and a part of his shoulder was burnt and he refused to attend to his injuries. I wanted to aid him, help him, treat him tell him that I was there for him but even I knew that it was a lie. I left him when he needed me, he was not a man to depend on someone and for once when he did which was fortunately me, it was broken. I ended it. He dragged me towards our room, none of us saying any word, we stood silent looking

Ananya's pov We both typical idiots were waiting outside Rehana's house for the opportunity to come so that we coul sneak in and get away with the bride. But it was easier said than done. It was so very difficult. I had for once in my adrenaline rush had told Rudy that we needed to do it but on looking at the security of the house had me questioning my sanity. I gulped down my nervousness and looked at my best friend who was clearly debating whether he was doing was right or not. It was wrong for sure, on so many levels, morales, and principles but just one base the base on which he had his whole existence depending upon was right, it was love. Rudy's whole existence was on love. It was the purpose of his life and there was no way in hell that he was going to loose it, at least not without trying. Thankfully we seized the opportunity and found a way. A bunch of certain extra helpers were entering the house and they were not even being checked, we covered our faces using some rand

Nani's pov I was going to Veer's room, to check whether he was alright. But instead I heard him shouting at Ana." You don't deserve family, you are a curse Ananya." " You will never come near my family." Veer's voice boomed through the walls, before I could intervene, I saw a broken Ana, tears continuously flowing through her eyes, her eyes defeated, as she grabbed the car keys from the table and ran outside the house. I ran after her, to stop her, but she was fast, she was in nothing but her pajamas, sat in her car and rode away. I didn't know, but for the first time I was shocked, that she didn't fight back. She didn't explained herself. I made a mental note to talk to Veer, and solve this problem, before it gets out of hand.My heart screamed, this was not going to end well.********* Veer's pov I sighed. I knew it. I should have known that, but I was blinded by the anger, now what explanation I should give her now. " I know it is not my domain to speak, and you have warne

Saving Grace 63. Something new
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
Saving Grace 62. Karma
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
Saving Grace 61. Phoenix
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
Saving Grace 60. A date to remember.
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
Saving Grace 58. Rehan is gone.
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
Saving Grace 57. Peace in the chaos
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
