“We will reach there in about one and half an hour,” Jay murmured to the person he was talking to on the other end of the call.Ved was just passing by his room who after hearing this, stopped and hid beside the door to know more of this conversation.“She will be there with me,” He added, and Ved instantly knew he was talking about Mayra.“You can continue with the plan. I will share the location with you in a while,” Jay mumbled and cut the call.Ved’s hand balled into fists and his jaw clenched thinking how Jay is taking advantage of Mayra’s trust in him. He has some kind of plan but until Ved finds out what it is, he has to play along.But how can he let Mayra get in danger? He could have planned something big if he is hiding it this way!Jay, send a location to an unknown number and threw his cell phone on the bed to get showered.Ved was watching his actions and just when Jay closed the door to his washroom, Ved entered his room and picked up his cell phone.“What a loser!” Ved
Jay took a piece of sandwich in his hand and pecked Bharti on her cheeks bidding her goodbye.“Laters babe,” He said and followed Mayra.Bharti chuckled knowing the reason Mayra's mood changed. The thought of Ved leaving again was more saddening for her than seeing him all the time. She knew Ved hasn't left for good but still choose her words in a way to see how Mayra reacts.Mayra was sitting in the driver's seat waiting for Jay who came out chewing on his sandwich. He opened the door to the passenger’s seat and sat in without even saying a word.He was too engrossed in his food. Can we blame him?“I could have waited!” Mayra said furrowing her brows. She hated that Jay always gives her more importance than himself.He should have had his breakfast and then followed her but how can he let her wait all alone?“I will never make you wait, Mayra,” Jay mumbled still chewing on his sandwich making his statement muffled but Mayra identified exactly what he meant.'Thank you Bappa for thi
“Mayra stop!” Jay screamed and Mayra stopped the car smashing the breaks.The car halted with a jerk making Jay jump on his seat.Ved was about to fall but thanks to his good instincts, he held onto Jay’s seat and saved himself from falling.Mayra smirked looking at Ved who settled his legs on the ground and sat in a better posture.‘Mission accomplished!’ She thought with a beaming smile.Ved was aware that she did that just to scare him and a smile made its way on his face thinking about how she is behaving to get a reaction from him.This is another step, isn't it?“I am taking a cab now!” Jay said holding onto his chest calming his raised heartbeats.Mayra was about to respond but someone tapped on her window. She looked out to see a man who had wrapped his face with a cloth selling some novels so she declined by swaying her head.She turned back to Jay but the guy knocked again. She gestured that she is not willing to buy anything respectfully but the guy didn’t move and knocked
Ved was standing there annoyed with the situation. How did he become so stupid to fell right into Jay's trap?Of course, Jay wanted to blame it all on Ved which is why he didn't lock his cell phone and did everything deliberately knowing Ved would fall for his lies.‘Would Mayra really believe his lies?’ He thought as his face softened.He was scared to face the situation where he means nothing to Mayra. Where he knows he doesn't hold the same place in her heart and where she wouldn't trust him enough to call for him when she is in danger.Would she really believe that Ved can do this?That Ved can risk her life just to get her back?That for him, having her is more important than her life?Before he could even understand, his legs took him towards her room. He stopped and pulled off his shoes so that he doesn't ruin the furry carpet of her room. She must really love walking barefoot here.He took a deep breath before stepping inside.“That’s alright Mr. Bhatt, I will come office tomo
Mayra’s POVThe whole day went up like a blur for me and I decided that I need to calm myself from all the worries and incidents happening. I slept throughout the day and at night I had my dinner in my room.Jay being Jay tried talking to me but I wasn’t in the mood. My mind was going haywire and all I needed was some time to think it all through.And after thinking about yesterday’s incident, I came to a conclusion that yeah it seemed like Ved did that all just to please me or talk to me but he is not the kind of person who would just kill people to get my attention. I know him, he wouldn’t hurt Jay because he knows how important Jay is for me.Siding all the thoughts to my subconscious mind, I turned off the shower that I was taking and walked out to get dressed.I can’t just stay home when my work is getting affected and I don’t care what anyone says, I am going to the office.I dressed up quickly in my formal black trousers and navy blue shirt. Applying just a little bit of concea
Third Person’s POV“So the puppet is allowed on the dinner table now?” Jay mocked Ved as soon as Bharti left.Ved chuckled in response which aggregated Jay and he looked at him coldly.“Looks like your plan backfired!” Ved replied staring back at Jay with disgust.Nothing gave him more satisfaction than seeing his dissapointed face. After yesterday's act, Jay has already shown him that he doesn't deserve Mayra because if he did, never even in his dreams he would have risked her life.“We’ll see!” Jay said and stood up to leave but was stopped by Ved’s words.“I will make sure Mayra knows the real you!” Ved warned. His words held a promise which could terrify even the worst of the worst but not Jay. He has dealt with many filthy rich powerful people. He knows how to tackle them.“You can try,” Jay replied with a smirk and walked off.Ved called Mr. Verma as soon as Jay walked away.“I need everything on Jaykant Singh Rathore by evening!” He ordered and cut the call.“Let the game begin
Slumping her body on the couch, Mayra placed her bag and papers on the center table and closed her eyes for a moment, resting her head on the pillow.She was exhausted and stressed out. The two-days vacation made most of the work pending which in turn made her skip her lunch. She worked continuously along with the preparation for the press conference.She wasn't just tired but worried about the conference too. She hasn't ever tried giving any public appearance so Mr. Bhatt was making sure she knows everything and can handle every situation.“Someone’s tired!” Bharti mumbled walking inside Mayra's room with a beaming smile.She was a proud mother. She saw how Mayra has grown from being a girl to a woman and nothing gives her more satisfaction than knowing she's developing.Mayra opened her eyes and gave Bharti a nod with a faint smile.“I am…” Mayra mumbled placing her head on her lap when she sat beside her.“Worried about tomorrow?” Bharti asked.She knows everything about her daught
Mayra woke up with the buzzing sound of her cell phone. She glanced at it opening one eyelid to stop the alarm she set for today, leaning from the past mistake.She wanted her mind and senses to be sharp for the day so she quickly freshened up and dressed for the gym. She wasn’t willing to waste time and go to Jay’s gym when she had a gym in the villa itself.She decided on doing the cardio first to kick start her sleeping mind. She turned on the treadmill and started walking on it. After a minute, she fastened its pace and started running on it. The sound of her footsteps echoed in the gym but Mayra was more indulged in the music that she played for her workout. She wanted her mind to be off the tension so she didn’t let anything remind her of how important a day that was for her.Ved woke up by the sound of music and glanced towards the clock.“Shit!” He muttered under his breath looking at the wall clock. It was already 06:45!He was waiting for Mayra to barge into his room and yel
Five Years Later..."Where is Mayra?""The Bride has run away!""Where's my daughter Mr. Bhatt?" Bharti yelled at Mr. Bhatt who glanced toward Ved, who in return, just chuckled."Mayra is missing?" Roy asked stepping up on the reception stage where Ved was sitting peacefully with Jay, having a glass of champagne."Yes my child! She is nowhere to be found..." Bharti turned towards Roy anxiously.Roy has been a big part of Mayra's life these five years. He accepted the fact that she is not ready to be his Kiyaa and her happiness resides with Ved. Through this period of time, they all worked together, chilled together, and even fought together.Mayra made sure that Roy stopped every illegal business he had but made sure that he didn't lose his power. Roy helped not only Mayra but Ved and Jay too so that they could grow with her. By giving them the power he promised, he realized that breaking that big wall he made to surround himself was actually a good idea."I will look for her..." Roy
"What do you mean by that?" Mr. Bhatt asked but Roy ignored him totally."Your parents were killed by your neighbor and he was the one who sold you to a prostitute house... Just because he didn't like the way you guys treated me." Roy mumbled in a low voice trying to hide the pain he was feeling, remembering the day.Mayra closed her eyes and tried to remember like a memory her mind was hiding behind played in front of her.*****"Babaaa...." The little girl cried as the goons pierced her father's head with a bullet."Nooooooooo..." Her mother cried but she was not aware of what was happening so she rushed towards the body of her father and wiped the blood dripping out of his forehead with her little frock."Babaa, I will heal you..." The little girl told as the goons laughed.Mercilessly, they pulled the trigger again and killed her mother too as Kiyaa turned to her side to see her mother's body, laying on the ground lifeless."Maaa... Aami asachi..." The girl cried rushing to her mo
"Would they accept me Ved?" Mayra asked sitting in the car beside Ved as she looked out the window.Roy didn't just ask them to come to any place but to Kolkata, his city and this made Ved even more suspicious. He was ready for the worst, taking precautions every step of the way but Mayra was relaxed. She didn't have even a single doubt about Roy's words. If he said that he knew about her family, he would make her meet them for sure. She was just wondering who they would be, what they must be doing in their lives, and will they accept their lost daughter.Another thought came to her mind what if they intentionally threw her out of their lives and didn't want her yet? What would she do then?"Why wouldn't they Mayra?" Ved asked tucking a piece of hair behind her eyes as a smile made its way on his face looking at her smiling."I am scared Ved..." Mayra told and hugged Ved, trying to feel okay.She was having all sought of questions in her mind that she wanted to ask her parents and al
"What the hell is happening here?" Ved roared as mayra came to her senses.She pulled away from Roy and glanced towards Ved who was furiously looking at them from the distance.Mayra then moved her gaze from Ved to Roy and saw tears filling his eyes as he ignored everyone but just stared back at Mayra.Ved's rage was at its peak but he was still holding on for an explanation from Mayra. He knew that Roy had something in his mind for Mayra but looking at her hugging him back, he felt betrayed."Ved...I..." Mayra started but was cut off by Roy."I am here to take you Mayra..." Roy said as Ved's anger surpassed his senses.He marched towards Roy and pushed him away from Mayra. Roy didn't even move his gaze from Mayra but in turn, he pushed him away and stood in front of Mayra again."Mayra, I will help you to find out who you are..." Roy said as Mayra froze.She wanted to know that too but could she really believe in Roy's words? Is this true or he is bluffing like before?But the tears
Ved walked down the stairs and glanced towards the dining to see Bharti and Jay but not Mayra. His heart instantly started pounding when he moved his gaze around but couldn't locate her.'She said she will be waiting...' Ved thought."She will be okay Bharti... We will make sure of it..." Jay mumbled to Bharti who was worrying for her daughter.Mayra looked fine to them but the heart of a mother knew that she was pretending. Although she did a great job acting okay but still Bharti missed the spark in her eyes."Where's Mayra?" Ved asked Jay who gestured towards the entrance.Before Jay could say anything, Ved rushed towards the door to see her but couldn't locate Mayra. He then moved his eyes from the sitting area of the swimming pool to the garden when he saw Roy touching Mayra's chin.Rage started building up in his head as he darted at them furiously.'What are you doing Ved? She needs space!' Ved thought and tried to calm himself but what he saw next angered him even more. Roy t
Ved opened his eyes as the first ray of sunlight fell on his face. He moved his gaze to his hand but there was no trace of Mayra at all."Mayra?" He called but no voice came out of his mouth.He looked around the room to find himself in his own room and hurriedly, he got up and checked around but there was no trace of Mayra. He searched for her things in the cupboard but it was still not there. Even the collage she made for him on his birthday was no longer hanging on the wall. The room looked like she never was here, like she never existed."Mayra..." He yelled but still nothing. It was like he just lost his voice.He then rushed out into his mansion and checked her room to find out that it was just as pale as his room. He was searching for her things from one place to another but it was nowhere near. The cradle he bought for their unborn was also missing along with the traces of any girl in the mansion."Mayraaaaa" He yelled with all he had and this time he could listen to his voice
"How are you feeling?" Jay asked stepping inside Mayra's room.After Mayra went back to her room, Roy walked away without saying a word to anyone and the policemen that came with him took care of everything. Ved was waiting patiently for Mayra to step out but she refused. She wanted to spend some time alone, away from everyone."You all should ask Ved about this. He is the one who lost the most today..." Mayra responded sitting up as Jay sat beside her on the bed."He is fine... You are not..." Jay said."I am fine too..." Mayra replied but Jay chuckled."Seriously Mayra, are we going to play this game now?" Jay asked tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear."How can I be okay Jay? I lost everything..." Mayra responded."You lost nothing Mayra. Everything's still the same..." Jay told but Mayra swayed her head and laid on her back."It looks like it is still the same but it's not. I don't even know how will I face the world when I cannot face myself..." Mayra said as she looked at
"Mayra?" Ved mumbled walking inside her room.He looked around but couldn't find her so he stepped towards the balcony as he knew she would be there like always, clearing her mind.As soon as he entered the balcony, he saw her leaning on the glass boundary with her head held low. He stood there, waiting for her to look up or notice his presence but a few seconds passed by and she didn't even turn her head back up. Mayra was reliving everything she went through in her life. The good, the bad, and the worst. She wanted to know where her steps were wrong, when she burned the lucky page of her life one by one.She wanted to feel it all at once so that it could stop. The pain she was having in her heart could stop. She wanted to accept it and move on, she wanted to smile again but it looked like there was no reason for her to smile.Moving from one phase to another, she just kept looking for something. A memory of who she really was. She tried a lot but she couldn't shake the feeling of
"Roy?" Mayra mumbled as he stepped inside staring at her face.He was back to his normal self. His posture was full of confidence, his hair gelled back into a ponytail, his body slim suit with many layers of chains, and his usual powerful aura.He ignored every eye staring at him but just rushed towards Mayra, not caring about the death stares he was getting."Mayra..." He mumbled as he stood in front of her, ignoring Ved who was holding her hand protectively.Roy hugged Mayra without wasting another second and Mayra let him. She even pulled her hand away from Ved and crossed them at his waist, hugging him tightly.She didn't know why but the feeling of being safe from any harm was still there in his embrace. He was the one who betrayed her and was the reason she almost got killed but still, she felt protected.Ved's veins popped out of his head when he saw their connection. He was raging but he controlled himself for Mayra's sake. She has been through enough already and she might nee
