At RM Holdings;
He walked out of his Bugatti buttoning up his blazer and wearing his shades. The guards at the gate bowed to him and he went inside the office building throwing the car keys to the guard. As he planned to take over the company within a week he chose today.
Everyone greeted him meekly with their gaze down, standing in a row holding their breath. He went inside his cabin giving them a curt nod as he disappeared inside his cabin and everyone sighed in relief. He has a dominating aura around him that makes everyone's breath stuck in their throat.
He was a man who talk less and work more, a calculative personality, with a manipulative nature. The world calls him a monster for a reason. He never shows mercy on someone making mistakes.
Tarun, his assistant, came behind him and stood across from his desk as he sat on his swivel chair. "Sir, everyone is already present in the meeting hall, we can start the meeting now," A man in his mid-twenties told him and he nodded, going through the file in his hand. "Let's go," he stood up walking out of the cabin and Tarun followed him behind.
He walked inside the meeting hall removing his shades. Walking up to the mic he cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. The numerous murmurs which were resonating in the hall went silent with his gesture.
"Good morning everyone, I don't like beating around the bush so I would directly come to the point. Be considerate towards your work. Don't mix your personal life with your professional one. Do your best and don't give me a reason to kick you out" He was saying and everybody present in the meeting hall listened to him with a pin drop silence.
"One thing you should know about me is I don't like negligence towards work. If you can't handle the pressure now you can never achieve success, I expect your 100%" with that he completed his speech and the hall was again filled with numerous murmurs.
Girls were drooling over their handsome boss while some were afraid to lose their job. "The meeting is over. Everyone get back to work" he announced with a cold demeanour and walked out of the meeting hall.
"The new CEO is such a hottie," a female employee said to another colleague. "He is kinda sexy but he's cold," another girl said observing his looks when he was giving his speech in the meeting hall a while ago. They were gossiping about their new CEO while working on the task they were appointed to do.
"You guys should focus on work rather than gossiping" A man in his mid-thirties who is the head of the finance department in the company said from behind, clearing his throat and startling them both. "Yes sir" both girls gave him an embarrassed smile and got indulged in their work again. He shook his head and left not before saying "girls nowadays"
"Sir we got the call from the Singhania industry. Should I fix your meeting?" Tarun asked and he tilted his head towards Tarun. Avyaansh smirked knowing his arrow hit the target while Tarun was perplexed. "Arrange dinner meeting with them tonight and send me the reports of the last three months. I want every detail of the invested money" Avyaansh ordered him and Tarun left, nodding at him.
His phone chimed with a message and his fingers stopped typing on his laptop. He unlocked his phone and leaned back on the chair, and going through the message a smirk appeared on the corner of his lips seeing Her picture. Shanaya was on the college campus, sitting with her other friends and laughing at the jokes they were cracking.
"Laugh as much as you want because your doom is on its way coming near you" Avyaansh smirked thinking about the trap he planned for her. "You are my trump card, Shanaya" he leaned back on his chair. His voice was void of any emotions and that smirk never left his face.

Meanwhile at Singhania heights;
"Did you get the appointment with him?" Rajeev asked his secretary who stood in front of the desk with a rigid posture. "Sir I have called his assistant and fixed your dinner meeting tonight" David, a man in his mid forty replied. "After so many calls he finally agreed to the meeting" David further added.
"He's looking for land near the seaside to build a luxurious seven-star hotel. This is the information we got till now from the resources" David told him as he already dug out the information for his boss knowing well he would be asking for it.
"This was the land he's looking for '' Rajeev turned on the projector and pointed at the land with laser light in the dark room illuminated with a light coming from the wall screen. They both were in the meeting room discussing the land. "This land is Shanaya's mom's land and she had transferred it in her name before her death," Rajeev said.
"The marketing price of this land is going higher day by day. If the deal went perfect then we can earn in trillion within the year" David told him. "Buy the other land near the seaside" Rajeev ordered his secretary. "Sir the villagers living at the seaside refused to cooperate. They are making a hindrance in buying the other lands" David informed him.
"These greedy insects" Rajeev shook his head in annoyance. "Offer them money and sort out this matter if they still deny then you know what to do" Rajeev ordered and David nodded in affirmation knowing how to handle this matter. "And call for the meeting with the shareholders" Rajeev ordered and David replied "sure sir" When it comes to business Rajeev is cruel.
David left after discussing his schedule and he got busy with his work when his phone rang. Sliding the green icon he answered the call "Hello" Rajeev said. "I need 5 million immediately," the person on the other side said. "Why this much amount? What happened this time?" Rajeev asked frustratedly. "I need the money immediately, I will tell you later"
"I hope you didn't cause any problem again" Rajeev said sternly. "Believe me, I didn't. But I need the money immediately" the person begged. "I will ask David to take care of this matter" saying that the call was disconnected. Rajeev called David and ordered him to transfer the money.
"Just a few months more then everything will be at its place" he muttered before focusing on the file in his hand. Rajeev had worked hard day and night in the past 10 years to make this company India's topmost company.
Rajeev Singhania: CEO of Singhania heights. A loving father to his daughter but a cruel man in himself. He has hidden his cruel side very adequately from his beloved daughter. He has the deepest darkest secrets which he never wants her to find out. His daughter and his business is his priority.
As the three of them decided, Shanaya told Rajeev that she was going to Tanya's house for a combined study as their exams were near. Rajeev hesitated at first but her one pleading look and he melted, his daughter is everything to him. "Okay, but you have to take the guards with you and call me when you reach there. Don't stay up too late for studies and come back by tomorrow morning" Rajeev notified her like she is some five years old. She jumped in excitement as she was permitted to go out. "Thank you so much! You are the best dad" she hugged him. "And you are the best daughter, my princess" Rajeev caressed her hair with a smile on his face. His heart was content with happiness seeing her daughter's smiling face. He can do anything to bring a smile to her face. "But promise me, you will eat with me tomorrow," Rajeev asked her and she nodded her head like a kid. As planned, she went to Tanya's home and ordered her bodyguards in a stern voice to threaten them which was
It was her first time coming to the club and watching the scenario in front of her made her go all awe. The club was on high with loud music and the dancing floor was bashed with people. The club was illuminated with neon lights and dimly dark. The three of them were sitting in a VIP room. The boys were eyeing them with lust dripping from their mouths. "That maroon-coloured dress girl looks sexy'' A guy said to his friends about Nia. "That black one looks hotter. Hot and cute" another guy commented about Shanaya and winked at his friends. At the same time, a black Bugatti stopped in front of the club. Avyaansh came out of his car fixing his black leather jacket and throwing his car keys to the valet he walked inside the club. His lips twitched into a smirk when his eyes caught the sight of her face. For a long time, he stared at her without caring about the surroundings sitting at the bar counter. Tanya dragged her both friends toward the dance floor and all of them
"Any...anyone…there? Some...body help" her voice was filled with dread. She banged hard on the door but the loud music was failing her attempts. By now her breaths became harshly compelling, she couldn't soothe her nerves. She was struggling to inhale and exhale voluntarily but every breath came roughly with a pause. "Somebody help… please" she cried out at top of her lungs but no use, the loud music was deafening her plea. "Please somebody help. Get me out of here" the situation compelled her to cry. She leaned on the door clutching her dress on her chest. She drank three shots and her alcohol tolerance is too low making it worse for her to keep her sanity. Her body was shuddering in fear that she had to grip nearby to stop her trembling body. Her chest was heaving up and down with her sharp inhaling and exhaling with a wide mouth. She felt her whole body was burning and with every passing second she was getting close to her climax at last she slumped to the floor.
She shut her eyes tightly when the sun rays hit her closed eyes. Her head was paining like a bitch and clutched her hair in a tight fist. She grumbled, hiding her eyes behind her palms. "Pull off the curtains Reema bi" Shanaya mumbled and turned to the other side. "Shanaya baby, Sir is waiting for you. Wake up quickly" hearing that her eyes shot open and she sat with a jerk on the bed a groan left her mouth the next second and she held her head. She felt like someone hitting her head with a hammer. She looked at the wall clock which was showing noon. "Is dad home?" She inquired and a nod she got in reply from Reema bi. From the expression of Reema bi, she was aware of the consequences. A cold shiver ran through her spine and she pulled her lips into a thin line, recalling the last night's stunt she pulled. "I will send him in as you are awake," Reema bi said and walked out of the room. She bit her nail in anxiety, worried about what to answer when her father would
At Singhania mansion; The doorbell was ringing continuously when a butler opened the door. Nia and Tanya came to visit her after their college. "Hello Reema bi," Tanya said as she went to the kitchen and saw Reema bi was doing kitchen chores. "Where is Shanaya?" She asked. "She is in her room, you both go, I will bring the refreshment," Reema bi indicated and smiled. "So you are saying that you didn't know how you ended up in the VIP room?" Tanya inquired after a while and a nod as to what she got in reply. "I remember… Someone came out of the blue inside that storeroom when I was calling for help. Maybe he had heard me screaming and came to help me" Shanaya explained, recalling the incident last night. "Did you see him?" Nia asked and Shanaya shook her head. "I was so scared that time I couldn't think of anything else" Shanaya sighed leaning her back on the bedpost. "Do you remember something like anything? Did he try to touch you by any means?" Tanya looked at
She was sweating profusely, her breathing was harsh, her hands were thrashing in the air. Her whole body was shivering in fear. "No…" she was unable to form a word and was whimpering in her sleep. A little girl was locked in a car's trunk. She dared not to make a sound and was crying silently holding onto her breath. "Where's she?" She heard a man's voice and cupped her mouth to muffle her cries. Her chin was wobbling and lips quivering. She didn't make any sound and laid there stiff. "Let's go find her somewhere else" another man said and she heard their footsteps fading away. "Dad save me" she whispered while her lips were quivering in fear. The surroundings were too claustrophobic for the little girl. The inside of the car's trunk was surrounded by darkness and in the eerie silence, she could hear her ragged breathing and her accelerated heartbeat. Suddenly the sound of a gunshot jolted her inside and a shriek left her mouth "DAD" she covered her ears behind her palms, her lip
Shanaya was sitting in the lounge, scrolling through her phone. She was bored of sitting at home and doing nothing. She huffed and stood up from the chair and walked inside the mansion. Reema bi was busy supervising the servants of their work just then her phone rang. She checked the caller id flashing Rejeev's name so she picked it and after listening to him she spoke "Yes sir, I will let someone deliver it to you" and after that she cut the call. She went to the study room and picked up the files Rajeev asked for. "Eva" Reema bi called out to one of the maids and she came out of the kitchen. Eva is the new maid and just joined a few days ago. "Sir needs these important documents urgently. Call Harsh to deliver them" Reema bi said. "Reema bi Harsh is on leave and no one is available for now," Eva told her. Harsh is one of the trusted staff in the mansion. "Oh no, sir asked me to deliver this file urgently," Reema bi said, panicking. Shanaya was standing near the
As her car drove off a girl came out from behind the pillar, wearing a dark colored hoodie and a cap as if she was hiding her identity from everyone. She gave an evil smile looking in her direction where Shanaya left and said "My brother is in the hospital because of you. How can I let you go easily" she gritted her teeth while her fist tightened till her nails dug in her flesh.Here Shanaya was still engrossed in today's event. She had her pending assignment to complete yet her mind was occupied with his thoughts. "He was the one who saved me, so why didn't he say anything in front of dad?" She held her head between her palms blowing air from her mouth. "Shake it off," she said to herself and inhaled a deep breath before concentrating on her assignment. Soon the night fell and she was off to bed after dinner. But sleep was far away from her eyes. For a long time, she tossed and turned on the bed but couldn't sleep a blink. At last, she took her medicines and finally drifted into a d
Seven months later;Avyaansh sat in his swivel chair, engrossed in his presentation as the soft hum of the office surrounded him. Just then, Natasha walked in, a curious smile on her face. “How’s the presentation coming along?” she asked, settling into the chair across from him. “Almost there,” he replied, his eyes glued to the screen, focused on the task at hand.So many things have changed in these seven months. He has grown a thick beard, which adds a rugged charm to his appearance, and the eye bags under his eyes have become more prominent, hinting at long nights spent contemplating the challenges ahead. His aura now exudes a more dominating presence than before. But his eyes have softened, revealing a depth of understanding and empathy that was previously masked by his stern demeanor.The Avyaansh of the past, who once found the constant smiling of others annoying, has transformed remarkably. He now smiles more often, a genuine expression that reflects his acceptance of change and
“I started working as your nanny when you were just five years old. You were a timid child, hesitant to warm up to strangers. However, it didn't take long for me to encourage you, and soon you began to form a bond with me. There came a time when I had to leave my job to look after my brother when he fell ill. But when I received the call saying you fell sick and missing me, I rushed back to you without hesitation. Since then, I've been living here with you. All this time, I believed your mother had passed away, as I had been told. Not once did I suspect that you weren't his real daughter.” Reema Bi said the last part with a frown, sitting on the bed, gently stroking Shanaya's hair as she lay with her head in her lap.“Even I didn't imagine in my worst nightmare of him being a murderer of my parents and pretending to be a father figure all these years,” she sniffed and the tremble in her body didn't go unnoticed by Reema bi who felt a tug in her heart. “He showed so much love and care l
The commotion from outside echoed through the opulent halls as Ryan dashed inside, the guards followed closely behind him with weapons, cladded in a black suits with earpieces on ears, their faces set in grim determination.The guards stood behind Avyaansh, waiting for his command to spring into action. Reluctantly, he broke the embrace that held him captive against his will. Standing beside Shanaya, he intertwined his fingers with hers and ordered the guards. “Take him to my warehouse and call the doctor to treat his wounds. He should be healed enough to take my wrath. He souldn't just die so easily,”He glanced at Shanaya from the corner of his eye, but she remained impassive, even after hearing his plans for Rajeev, she didn't show any reaction which he was expecting. Deep down, she had accepted the truth and recognized the real monster. Rajeev was no longer her concern. How Avyaansh chose to make him pay was not her business anymore.Everyone around her had only fed her lies—wheth
While they were standing aiming their guns against each other. There was a commotion at the entrance that drew Rajeev's attention and he went alert. Avyaansh smirked looking at Rajeev's blanched face losing its colors. Ryan has already surrounded the mansion with their guards. Outside, the armed men surged forward like a dark tide, their movements swift and calculated. They spread out around the mansion, a well-coordinated assault aimed at dismantling Rajeev's defenses. The guards, once confident in their numbers, now found themselves outmatched, falling one by one to the relentless onslaught. The sharp crack of gunfire punctuated the air, mingling with the shouts of men caught in the throes of battle. Each confrontation was brutal and swift; the sound of bodies hitting the ground echoed through the mansion. Neil, battered and bruised, slowly rose from the ground, the metallic taste of blood lingering on his lips. He wiped the crimson streak from his mouth with a shaky hand. With ea
Shanaya's world shattered in an instant. The foundation of her reality crumbled beneath her feet. She felt a surge of anger and confusion, mixed with a deep sense of grief. How could the person she thought was her father turned out to be the devil? The weight of the truth settled upon her like a ton of bricks, and she felt as if the ground beneath her was crumbling. Her mind raced, trying to process the implications of what she had just learned. The once familiar and safe image of her father had been shattered, replaced by a dark and sinister reality.Shanaya's tears swelled, blurring her vision, she found herself engulfed in a sea of emotions - a tumultuous mix of anger, confusion, and heartbreak. The room seemed to constrict around her, suffocating her with its oppressive weight, making it hard to breathe. Her legs trembled as she approached the man holding a gun in his hand. Avyaansh stood facing Rajeev, who ominously aimed a gun at him. Shanaya, despite her trembling legs, walke
Flashback;Harsh was returning with his family from their delightful vacation in Switzerland. As they emerged from the airport, his chauffeur was already waiting with the sleek car. He gently held little Shanaya in his arms, her eyelids heavy with sleep. Taking the keys, he dismissed the driver and settled into the driver's seat. The car glided away as the night drew closer. "Mumma, I wan ish cleam,"(I want ice cream) three-year-old Shanaya uttered in her adorable, gibberish voice, Her big, expressive brown eyes gazed out of the window. "Darling, you already had two ice creams before the flight; it's not good for you, you might catch a cold," her mother gently told her, causing Shanaya to pout and glance at her dad with her big brown eyes as if bribing her father. Seated on her mother's lap, Shanaya looked up at Harsh as he was driving the car, focusing on the road. "Daddy, I wann ish cleam," Shanaya insisted, tugging at her father's shirt. "Alright, sweetheart, we'll be there in no
"And now, it's your turn," Rajeev uttered as he retrieved a gun from the inner pocket of his coat, aiming it directly at Avyaansh. ”Wait,” Neil's voice echoed sharply in the living room, cutting through the tense air like a knife as he approached them, passing by Avyaansh, and positioning himself next to Rajeev, his eyes fixed on Avyaansh who knelt before them. "Why the rush, Dad?" Neil's words carried a mix of anger and frustration, his gaze piercing into Avyaansh. "I still have unfinished business with him, a debt to settle. He held me captive in that fucking warehouse, giving me endless torment, relentless beatings," Neil's recount of the ordeal was laced with bitterness.As Neil spoke, Avyaansh met his gaze with a smug expression, a silent taunt that seemed to convey a message of 'you deserve far worse.' The sight fueled Neil's anger, his frustration bubbling over as he strode purposefully towards Avyaansh, delivering a powerful blow to his jaw. Avyaansh's head snapped to the side
Avyaansh was driving his car when Ryan's call came in. Swiftly plugging his ear pods, he answered, "Yes Ryan," his attention divided between the conversation and the road ahead. "Your assumptions were spot on. He had strategically placed his dogs around your mansion," Ryan's voice relayed over the phone. Just two days prior, he had touched down in India, setting the stage for what lay ahead.“Shanaya is en route to Singhania house. You handle the rest. I'll be at the mansion in fifteen minutes,” he ordered over the phone. Ryan replied in agreement before ending the call, shifting his focus back to the task of driving.As he arrived at the mansion, a truck of guards stationed outside the grand estate immediately caught his attention. Several men, armed with rifles, stood vigilantly at the entrance and scattered around the porch, their stern expressions painting a picture of seriousness and tension. As he glanced at the cluster of men, a smirk played on his lips, exuding an air of confi
It was pitch-black outside while he was inside the gym room of his penthouse. The stillness of the room was broken by the rhythmic thuds of his fists against the punching bag, echoing through the darkness. It was like he was battling his inner demons under the cover of night. With each punch, he unleashed a torrent of pent-up frustration and anger. Sweat poured down his face, drenching his brow. His eyes blazed like fiery embers, fueled by the intensity of his rage. The force of his blows reverberated through the punching bag, causing it to shake violently. It was as if her words had ignited a fire within him, consuming his every thought. “How could you, Avyaansh? How could you stoop so low? My father, the man I've known my entire life, is not capable of such a heinous act. I don't believe in your false accusations, even if I am dying”. He was so consumed by his rage that he wasn't even concerned about his bleeding knuckles. He ripped off his gloves with his teeth and unleashed his b
