He left her there with her friend, but his heart was not satisfied.Rudra entered Porishma's house, and Neil found him. They nodded at each other, and Neil took him to the place where her turmeric ceremony was being performed.Rudra smiled at Porishma and felt happy for her. Ansh saw him and ran toward him, clutching his legs."How are you, my little boy?" Rudra asked Ansh as he scooped him into his arms."I'm fine, Daddy. See, Maa is there," Ansh said, pointing at Porishma.Rudra then walked toward her. He found her busy ogling her MONSTER and laughed mentally.He applied turmeric paste to her face, and then her gaze landed on him. Porishma was shocked to find him there. She thought he would not come, but he did."Pari," Rudra said. Porishma looked at him, and tears started flowing from her eyes.A loud sob escaped her mouth, and Rudra hugged her while placing one of his hands on her baby bump."Hey,
**A few days later :-**"Hello!" Shakti said softly."Hello!"Rudra picked up the call without looking at the number, but when he heard her voice, his heart stopped beating for a second.He spoke and breathed deeply."Hey! Mr. Husband. When will you come home?" Shakti asked him, and Rudra checked his watch. But before he said anything to her, he heard other male voices and became alert."Where are you?" Rudra asked her panicly."Oh, I'm in the market. I am out for shopping, which is why I called to check on your arrival. I haven’t prepared anything for dinner," Shakti said loudly, but Rudra’s ears only heard male voices coming from the other side."Madam! This dress will look great on you. You'll look like a heroine," the shopkeeper said in a different tone to someone else, but Rudra thought the shopkeeper was talking to Shakti."What the hell are you buying, huh?" Rudra yelled at her."What's wrong with you? I'm buying dresses for myself," Shakti didn’t understand the situation and ye
**Day of Porishma's Christian Wedding, NY**"Smile," Shakti said and took several pictures of Rudra."Aren't you satisfied yet?" Rudra said irritably and started to move out of the room, but Shakti stopped him and took more pictures."No, because in all the pictures, you look like a pumpkin," Shakti said and made him pose for another picture."You," Rudra said."Passionately YOURS," Shakti spoke boldly."We are getting late, Mrs. Rathore, so you should get ready for the wedding. I'm going to meet Arjun and Neil," Rudra said quickly and went out of the hotel room.Shakti smirked as she got ready quickly and walked out of the room for a walk, but she bumped into someone else. She wrapped her arms around the person’s waist and said, "GOTTA."The lady put her hands on her heart and looked at Shakti with a feminine, soft voice."I'm sorry," the lady said and clutched her hands tightly."It's okay!!" Shakti said and unwrapped her arms from around the lady’s waist, helping her stand properly.
"My body is swaying."*Hiccups*"My heart is swaying."*Hiccups*"Who is playing the flute?"*Hiccups*Shakti was singing loudly at Davis and Porishma's Christian wedding reception party.Shakti gulped down one alcohol shot after another and was now searching for Rudra in a tipsy state.On the other hand, Rudra was also searching for her. The whole family, including the kids, was on a search mission and eventually found her.When Rudra found her, Shakti was sitting cross-legged at the center of the party hall, rubbing her head. Her dress was showing off her toned, silky legs, and Rudra wanted to pull out every eye that was ogling her."DURGSHATKI!" Rudra shouted loudly, and Shakti looked at him while tears were streaming down her face."Lord of My Life, My Husband!" Shakti yelled loudly, and everyone looked at her.Shakti stood up and stumbled a few times before she could take another step.Shakti fell to the floor. Rudra rubbed his face in frustration, and both Arjun and Daniel looked
[Last chapter continued]Shakti ran to the bathroom and emptied her stomach. Rudra rubbed her back as she cried in his arms. She changed her dress, and he gave her anti-hangover drinks. She gulped them down and made weird faces.Rudra smiled at her. She lay down on the bed, and he went to attend an important call from his team. When he came back, Shakti was not in the room.Rudra looked for her in the room and the hotel lobby but didn't find her anywhere.At that moment, he literally forgot to breathe. He prayed for her safety. He ran out of the hotel and contacted the hotel managers. They, too, searched for her.Rudra was walking quickly near the empty street of their hotel, and there he found her dancing in the rain.Her moves were sharp, and her waist was moving like a snake. His eyes were glued to her body. Her dress was wet and clung to her body like a second skin.Rudra watched her like a passionate lover. He was possessive of her, and he knew this, but liking and loving weren’t
**The next morning:-**"Good morning," the silkiest yet sexiest voice she had ever heard whispered softly into her ear.His soft breath brushed lightly against her sweaty neck. She trembled in his tight hold and realized that she was on top of him.Rudra smiled again and pressed his lips to hers, giving her a sensuous morning kiss. Her eyes widened as he smiled while kissing her again.After the drunken incident at Davis-Porishma's wedding reception party, this was the most beautiful morning they had shared together.Their marriage was running smoothly.---**A Few Months Later:**“Kore,” Rudra banged on their bedroom door, impatiently waiting for her to come out.

Aren't you done yet?” Rudra shouted, and after ten minutes, which felt
"But Mompi gave birth to Ansh, a single child. How's it possible?" Samantha finished, and everyone stilled in their place.But the person who was numbed was Rudra, who forgot to breathe.Rudra turned around and found Shakti standing behind him with the same expression as him.Rudra started to run like a maniac, and Shakti followed him."Rudra! Wait! Listen to me," Shakti called out to him.She understood him and knew how much his heart and mind were in a mess. She took a deep breath when she saw him standing in one place.But her steps halted when she heard him talking to Porishma. He wasn't actually talking but screaming on the phone.Rudra was not in his senses, and Shakti needed to control him; otherwise, he would hurt himself in his madness and senselessness."I'm asking you, Pari. Did Mompi give birth to twins?" Rudra asked, his breathing fast and short.Porishma didn't reply. She was in shock too, frozen for a moment. She placed her hands on her baby bump, tears welling up in her
