Nadia’s POV
I was riding with Veer.He always insists on taking me home. He has been of great support to me inthe industry and I wish to repay him by not breaking his heart. I will try tobe with him even though it will be hard loving another man but Sidd. It hasbeen two days since the incident with Sidd’s mom and I have been trying as muchas possible to escape Sidd and Jaiden. I know Sidd wouldn’t react to myreprove, but that Jaiden is something else. Just yesterday, he threatened totake me down and make me scream his name. For fuck’s sake, what did I do todeserve that? No man has ever touched me before and after Sidd, yet I earnedmyself a slut’s title. If only I had listened to my mother’s advice, maybe Iwouldn’t be here by now.“What is the matter now?”Veer asked, glancing at me.“It’s nothing, I’m fine,”I replied with a forced smile. How can I be fine when I am being threatened? Icouldn’t tell Veer aboutNadia’s POV“Ow!” I winced at thethrobbing pain in my forehead. It felt like something dull was forcing itself acrossmy forehead. The room smelled like a candle wax burning. My whole body was benumbed.I opened my eyes and the darkness made my vision blurry before the candlelightslowly pierced through. I tried to sit up on the bed but then I couldn’t movemy hands. I pulled my hands and it dragged a rope above my head. Wait. What? Itried looking up at my head, my neck ached. Then it dawned on me my hands weretied to something, maybe a hook against the wall above the headboard orsomething. I pulled my leg, it was restrained too. Then my position wasconfirmed. I was lying flat on the bed, my hands tied to something above theheadboard, and my legs were spread on the bed, tied each to something I couldn’tfathom, restraining my whole body movement except my eyes and head. My heartpicked a race, and my senses heightened, knowin
Sidd’s POVI returned to thesafe house to be with Nadia. She was still unconscious. I removed my shoes andsat on a chair close to the bed, watching her.“Veer… Veer,” Nadia begancalling in a brittle tone, sweeping her head sideways uncomfortably on the bed.Her forehead was covered with the sweat evoked by her nightmare.“Nadia?” I called. Istood up from the chair and sat with her on the bed. “Nadia?” I shook herlightly.“Veer?” she gasped,jerking up immediately. “Veer?” she turned her head to me. “Did you see Veer?Did you help him?” she queried, staring into my eyes as if fetching the truth.“Calm down, okay? Veer isfine,” I assured her. She inhaled and exhaleddeeply. “Thank you,” she mouthed and relaxed back on the bed.“What should I get you?”I asked. She sat up quickly again,swaying her head around the bed. “My phone. Where is my phone?”“Are you kidding me? Isthat what’s import
Siya’s POVI went to Veer’s house.Not for anything, but for the sake of our friendship. I wanted to keep thingsthe way it was between us. “Hello, Siya,” Vaani’swarm smile welcomed me the moment she opened the door.“Hi, Vaani,” I smiledback, walking past her inside. She closed the door and followed me to theliving room. “Where is Veer?” I asked,looking around.“He is upstairs, in hisroom,” she responded.“Thank you,” I commentedand headed upstairs.Reaching to Veer’s door,I clenched my fist to tap on it when I heard his voice. He was near the door,on the phone I guess.“Of course, I am notgoing to teddy this one. I just hope she accepts my proposal,” he said. A gasp erupted from mychest, and I covered my mouth. Veer was planning to propose to Nadia or what? Ipressed my ear against the door to hear more.“Yeah, I selected thebest I could find from their website. Trust me it’s

I need to forget Sidd in the best waypossible. I want to love Veer just as much as he loves me.

I just want to showcase my car today, Iwant to flaunt it and let everyone know I have stepped onto the stage, underthe spotlight.I parked my car at aparking lot and went inside to shop.

Veer’s POVI was restless, I just couldn’t hold on anymore and I sped to the police station since the police officers were claiming it had to reach 24 hours before she could be declared missing. I hurried out of my car, slammed the door, and stormed into the police station. All eyes turned to me as I stood at the entrance, squinting and peering for the sergeant. “What do you need, sir?” one of the officers came to me. I ignored him and headed on to the sergeant who just appeared from a room.“Veer, what’s the matter?” he queried.“Are you saying you didn’t hear me call the station earlier to declare Nadia missing?” I groaned.“You have to calm down, Veer. We can’t do anything now till she is declared missing after 24 hours of not returning,” he said.“I am not taking that shit!” I barked, hitting the documents in his hands on the floor. My eyes were red and I was lipid with rage. Amid my anger was an inexplicable fear. What happened to Nadia? Where could she
Veer’s POVI couldn’t believe Nadiawould hurt me this much. I thought the pain would go but it’s morning alreadyand nothing changed. How could she sleep with Sidd with my ring on her finger?That’s bloody cheating. I trusted her, how could she? I punched a hole into thewall in the bathroom with my fist. I was truly pained. Even the shower wasn’thelping. A tear dropped from my eyes.*****I was in the living roomafter a while of pouring my frustrations on everything in the bathroom andbedroom. I sat gloomy, staring at the laptop on the table in front of me.

Without pressing on, she turned and
