All Chapters of Saving Grace : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Ananya's pov I had nothing to do since morning when Nani told me that all of my post wedding rituals had been done already and the fact that couldn’t cook, canceled one ritual as well. I felt bad about it but Nani was surprisingly calm and content when she simply told me to boil some milk as a formality. However, Mami and Mamu was a different case, they decided it was right moment to show me where I belonged. They taunted me about my cooking skills and how I would kill Veer hungry. I mean what kind of wife I was who couldn’t cook. Simple reason, I was pyrophobe and my doctor had strictly denied me to do anything related to fire as it was the main reason and it could trigger my panic attack. What surprised me was when Veer said I don’t need to cook as simply for starters, we have cook in our house and secondly he knows how to cook and it was enough for both of us. I swore I was just a second away from squealing like a school girl whose crush had noticed her the first time. Ever sinc

Ananya’s pov. My ballerina music box was the best ever gift that I had ever received in my entire life, the only connection that I had with my mom, the tune that kept my nightmares at bay. I had changed into some nightclothes and Veer was sitting beside me working on his laptop. I was sipping on my hot chocolate and was still looking at the music box. I could see the arts and craft tape that Shori had paste on the box to cover the cracks, it was not the same but it’s tune was still working and there were some cracks that were hidden by the tape. I was listening to the tune on repeat past 30 minutes and was still listening to it still. “It’s not going anywhere Anu, you can keep it and get back to sleep.” Veer said a small smile playing on his lips as he looked at me. I shook my head in a childish manner because it still felt surreal to me that I had my music box with me. “I still can’t believe it, Shori gifted me this.” I said in astonishment still caressing the box like it was mo

Veer’s pov Her words of confession worked like a wild fire and ice compression on my burns at the same time. But I didn’t have the courage to utter them back, so I gave her what she already had ever since she became my wife. My loyalty, her disappointment and relief could be easily seen in her brown eyes but I chose not to let it bother me much. I knew that the bloody ‘L’ word was quite unlucky for me and it was going to bite me in the ass if I let it consume me. Last time I said that, I ended up being an orphan. My father didn’t give two shits whether we loved him or not, he was too consumed by his greed for money and my mother was nothing without him. I turned my gaze to the sleeping beauty and smiled softly at her slight pout of lips and took in her soft yet fierce features. Her eyes were innocent but held the sharpness of a wild tigress when messed with. She was intelligent yet naïve. She let her emotions control her moves, but didn’t let anyone take advantage of it. My dark tho

Ananya’s pov True to Veer’s words, Rehan was behind the bars the next day he molested me and I couldn’t be any more grateful but Mami was full of anger. I could understand her pain as a mother she had go to go through when she was told that her son was arrested but was disgusted at the same time she was defending a molester. Veer was full of anger when he saw Rehan but he controlled it just fine when police was taking my statement. He was by my side holding my hand all the while, his grip tightening every time when he learnt each and every detail of the incident. Sarah was unfortunately at home that day and was also sitting by my side, claiming that she needed to support her bhabhi when her brother scolded her but I guess she was just curious to know about what had happened. She almost tore up when she learnt what Rehan had done, apparently for her he was arrogant but he was her brother. I was working on my laptop as usual when Veer told me that one of his business partners would be

Veer's pov She was sleeping peacefully, her face on my chest leaving warm puffs of air rising goosebumps on my skin that came in their way. Her arms wrapped around me like a koala bear. It was a bittersweet moment when she told me that I was her top priority but she was not mine. How could I tell that idiot of my woman that she had been my priority ever since I had seen her. She had been on my mind 24/7. However I didn't want her to be burdened with my past when she already had a lot on her plate. She was insecure yet but she was dealing with then just fine. I was proud that she was my wife. Any woman in her place would have lost her cool and probably kicked have out Tanya from this house the moment she would see her. But my woman was different, she wanted to know why I was doing it. It was true, Shrivastavas were not someone I would like to deal. They were known to use dirty tricks in their business besides their empire was in its way to fall. A smile crept on my lips at the tho
