Arjun's point of view... I fought with Neha when I was little, for a beautiful doll she had, that I was pleased with. At that time everyone including my Mom tried to convince me that boys do not play with dolls.Yes, I knew it. But just because I liked it and I can't have it, I tried to ruin it.Mom stopped me and promised me that I would get my beautiful doll when I grew up. I thought it was so childish that I believed that. She said that the doll would stay with me forever and do whatever I told her to do, unlike the plastic ones. Every time I see this girl, standing before me, trembling, I remember Mom's words again.Is she a living embodiment of Mom's pledge, obediently awaiting my command? Intrigued, I find myself wondering if she is the very doll Mom spoke of.I was in my inbuilt study room when I saw her coming out of the bathroom. My eyes stuck on her and I felt an unknown jerk all over my body as if I touched a current wire. It was an inbuilt room separated by a mirror
Author's point of view... The Thakur Mansion was no less than a royal palace, spreading across a vast land containing more than two hundred rooms. Separated vast halls for gatherings and their exquisite decorations, were a topic among those who got the chance to visit them. Each corner of the mansion excels in the interior that exhibits royalism. There in the middle of the mansion, lay a beautiful and spiritual temple. One can experience spiritual solace in that ancient temple. Every morning, each member of the family has to assemble there for the morning Aarti( prayer). It was a rule set by their ancestors and they all followed it.If there is a new member in the family, they must pray first the next morning. Dhanraj Thakur, Arjun's grandfather was very particular about the rules and regulations of the family. As he walked out of his room, he saw all his family members were assembled in the temple including Mitali, except Arjun and his so-called wife. That was what Dhanraj exp
Author's point of view...Savitri joined them and called the little girl out. "Nikita, come out and say hello to your aunt" The girl slowly walked out and nodded. "They are Neha's children," she introduced them to Sonia with a friendly smile, "That's Neal and she is Nikita" The kids were so adorable that made Sonia bend forward and kiss them both affectionately. She didn't even start to talk to them when their mother stormed to them, out of nowhere and pulled her kids away from Sonia.She was ferocious as if Sonia was not a human but a plague that could affect her kids. "Hey, you...!" she grunted at Sonia, pointing a finger toward her as a warning, "Don't you ever dare come any closer to my kids" Sonia jolted back and hung her head, calmly. It was painful, being treated that way.What did she do wrong to get humiliated like this? Among all the family members she met so far, Neha and her grandfather were indifferent toward her. "Come, let's go" Savitri patted her shoulder as a g
Sonia's point of view... I froze as I saw the real animal in him, pinning me on the bed under his strong body. I know I can't get away from him, he was not going to stop regardless of what I attempted.But this time I didn't close my eyes. Though tears cascaded down unstoppably, I was still staring at him. Unbelievably, he stopped after a few seconds and glared into my eyes without a blink, slowly loosening his grip he raised himself. "Get up," he said sliding himself off me and sitting aside. I instantly jolted into a sitting position, covering the displaced saree."Go and clean yourself" he steered, wiping his forehead that was dripping sweat. I was still surprised. Was this for real? Did he just let me go? I ran into the bathroom as fast as I could and cleaned my face. When I got out after cleaning, he was still in the room, sitting on the bed. I have no idea what he was thinking. The way he acted a few minutes ago, I was sure he was going to...But what happened suddenly? D
Author's point of view... Right in the middle of the pooja, Arjun's phone buzzed disturbing him, though he waited till the pooja ended before he strode out silently to attend it."Boss, you were right!" Dheer exclaimed confirming something right when the phone connected. Arjun's eyes narrowed and he turned around to glance at his wife for once then took a few more steps ahead. Striding completely out of the house he hummed, gesturing Dheer to continue. "Sir there is a ditch in Maam's details," said Dheer confirming, very attentively as if he was still going through something while talking to him. "What is it?" Arjun grunted slowly, but a little eagerness could be noticed in his voice. "Their family shifted to Mumbai a few years back and she joined the college but there are no details about her high schooling or anything else in her records," "What...!" Arjun exclaimed, "Did you check it properly?" he asked rather irritatingly."Yes sir, I am still on it" Dheer retorted immediatel
Sonia's point of view... "But it was for me when we did it for the first time...!" said Mitali, without even the slightest shame on her face. Bloody bitch...! How could someone brag about something like this so casually? Shameless...! I was literally pissed off not because of what she said just now, but because of her attitude. I don't know if what she said was true, I mean if they did sleep together.I don't give it a damn...!Why would I be bothered because of a man like him? He is a pervert, he is a beast. No one else but I know what he is. But...! Wait...! Why should I give this bitch the joy of pissing me off? I smacked myself back from my thoughts and looked at her, forcing a smile on my face. "Was that so?" I started sarcastically, "It wasn't that painful for me," I can't believe I mumbled it out. I turned red as she curled up on my face. Hanging my head shyly, smiling slightly, I added in a taunting tone, "He was gentle with me, so caring. After all, I am his wife,
Author's point of view...Sonia's eyes widened as she heard someone talking about that incident. Though she doubted that it was a deliberate move, she never expected it to harm her.But after hearing those words her mind swirled. She took a deep breath and decided to investigate the mysterious voices in the storeroom. She quietly approached the door, her heart pounding with a mix of fear and resolve. She opened the door without making any sound, yet the hushed conversation abruptly stopped.In that dimly lit storeroom, Sonia could barely make out the figures of two people. They seemed startled by her sudden entrance and hid behind the huge cases of groceries. Sonia hesitated stepping ahead, but when she saw one of them was a woman, wearing red bangles, the same person Sonia had glimpsed earlier, she rushed behind her. "Hey wait...!" she called out but that lady ran toward the back door. "What are you doing here?" Sonia urged, her voice filled with a mixture of anger and curiosity.
Author's point of view... "Bloody bitch...! I wish I could kill her right here" Mitali snorted in anger and her friends were just staring at them both. Did they just see someone mocking their friend, the queen, Mitali? It was unbelievable because, in the entire college or their friend's circle, no one ever dared to offend Mitali. And those who pissed her off had the worst ending ever. "Just ignore her sweety, we still have to prepare something" Aditi, one of her friends and the girl who just grabbed Sonia's hair, comforted Mitali. "I will kill that bitch...!" "I will...!"Mitali was sniffing when the other girl moved near, "Oh, come on Mitali, let her bark, we will let her pay tonight...!""Let's see how she will survive in this mansion after tonight" they mumbled among themselves and walked toward Mitali's room. The girls exchanged smirks, seemingly enjoying the secret plan they had cracked. Mitali, oblivious to the tension, continued, "Did you guys buy everything that I as

With each passing moment, the weight of their shared journey hung heavy in the air, casting a shadow over the fragile peace they had fought so hard to attain.She felt a closeness with Arjun's family. Though they had treated her with hostility before, they are now fond of her.Now that they had understood what she is truly, they all accepted Sonia as one of their family. But Sonia still wanted to go away. As she got back to the Thakur Mansion, Arjun was waiting for her in their bedroom. With a heavy heart, Sonia walked in, she looked at Arjun, her voice trembling with emotion as she prepared to

The news of her company's impending bankruptcy reached her ears, a tempest of fury roared to life within her, its flames licking at the edges of her consciousness with a ferocity born of desperation and despair.

Author's point of view... The next day, Arjun left behind Sonia and her brother to catch up and went to attend the meeting with the CEO of that pharmaceutical company which supplies those magical pills to Sharma's company. Finally, he arrived at the imposing headquarters of the pharmaceutical company with Dheer following him, its sleek facade a testament to the opulence that lay within. With a deep breath, Arjun crossed the threshold, his resolve unshaken by the specter of uncertainty that loomed before them.It was said that the man inside is very stubborn and powerful at the same time. Though Arjun was not some weakling, he was new to this city. As they entered the inner sanctum of the CEO's office, they were greeted by a figure of authority, his gaze sharp and penetrating beneath the veneer of congeniality."Welcome, Mr. Arjun" the man greeted him with a smile that did not reach his eyes. "What brings you to our humble abode?"Arjun met the CEO, David's gaze with steely resolv
Author's point of view... Sonia explained her plans about the better way of revenge along with the fact about Arjun's mother's condition what Kaka had revealed to her. She told him everything about his mother on how Mitali had made someone to use brain needles to let his mother be in the coma state for more than four years. Arjun was completely shocked and enraged to know that Mitali and her father had been plotting against his family for so long. Arjun agreed to Sonia's plan and they set off to China once his grandfather's health was stable. As Arjun and Sonia stepped off the plane onto the bustling tarmac of Shanghai's international airport, the air crackled with an electric tension, palpable in the dim glow of the terminal lights. Their task, shrouded in secrecy and threat, hung heavy in the air as they navigated the maze of corridors and security checkpoints unaware of the eyes lurking on them from the moment they stepped in that land.Though Sonia feared of being recognized
Author's point of view... "Forgive me, my kids..." Those words echoed deep inside their ears, penetrating into their minds. There was a slight pinch that Arjun had felt. Did he hear it right? The old man who had been blaming him for every wrong in their lives was actually asking for his forgiveness...! Arjun and Sonia gaped at each other in incredulity. They never anticipated that they would hear this in their entire life.Where did the hatred go?Why was Grandfather suddenly asking for their forgiveness?Sonia panicked if grandfather had lost his memories or his sanity because of her treatment, but soon she understood that it was true as the old man grabbed her hands and a tear drop left the corner if his eye. He was regretting everything. And it evident in his blurry eyes and everything that was going on was true not just their imagination. What happened in these past days? Why was the old man acting so weird? She wondered in her mind, though no words rolled out of her mouth.
Author's point of view... All the family members were stunned by things going on in the family but no one dared to open their mouth before either of them. Neha and Vikram were out of town as Guruji had asked them to visit his ashrams for the treatment of Neal. It might not have ended up the way it is if Neha and Vikram were in the mansion as Vikram was himself a cardiologist. But things were predestined to go uncertain and contentious. It hadn't been an hour and Adarsh had already arranged a contract which he asked his assistant to bring to the Thakur Mansion. That contract was the evidence of his viciousness and his hatred towards his brother's son, Arjun. He had made sure that Arjun would be left with nothing if his wife failed to wake the old man. Arjun read the contract and he was speechless for a moment as he couldn't comprehend that his uncle could reach the extent of bringing him down. Using his father's life to bring his opponent down, who could do such things but there
Author's point of view... Ryan...!! Sonia's eyes widened as she recognized the man before him and in an instant she covered her face and rushed towards the opposite side. It was the time when the passengers were getting on the plane in a hurry so it was easy for her to mingle with them. Running in a hurry, she bumped into another man who grabbed her firmly back to her foot. As she looked up, she saw Arjun who was staring at her surprised. "Didn't I ask you to stay there? What are you doing here?"She was flustered in panic. "I... I was...!" she stuttered fetching for better words to explain. Looking behind every second, she feared If that person was still chasing after her.But before she could talk further, he grabbed her hand and walked her out of the plane. "We are going back," he said, She couldn't understand what was going on but whatever it was, it only favored her. At least the man from her past whom she just bumped into, won't be able to find her. Actually, when Arjun
Author's point of view... The great wall of China that Sonia had built allying almost all the cushions and pillows in her room, between them, collapsed as those strong hands pulled her closer to him in just a second. She sucked in the air at that sudden movement of his. The room got pretty quiet after that. None of the two knew how to bring up a conversation, given their personal challenges and circumstances. Even though each of them had a million thoughts running wild in their mind, their lips remained sealed.Sonia pulled out her pillow slightly sliding away from him but it didn't take Arjun another second to pull her back in place. The silence broke as Arjun grunted in his hoarse tone, "Stay still or I can't guarantee you if I could keep my promise to you" Sonia froze. What else could she possibly do after a warning like that? Several things raced through Sonia's mind, Isn't that weird to sleep too close to each other? Are we going to sleep in the same position for the entire
Author's point of view..."We haven't gotten the chance to settle down yet, hope you won't mind, Mr. Arjun" Amrita added apologetically."Just call me Arjun" Arjun said respectfully to Amrita and walked over to them, "and I don't care about such things" Arjun added as his eyes were still lingering on Sonia's trembling self. In that conversation, Sonia raised her eyebrows and glimpsed at him. A clean freak like him actually said that he didn't mind the mess...! Is it some kind of joke? "I'm satisfied! Sonia is really lucky to have such a good husband like you in her life! Her parents will be content to see you take care of her for the rest of her life" Amrita expressed her gratitude while serving some deserts to them. Though those were just a few words of her heart, Sonia felt a jerk on the mention of her parents. She frowned glaring at Amrita. Amrita stopped but couldn't help but feel so lucky to be able to find such a God of Wealth. After dinner, in order to get her niece to ge
