CheckMate Chapter 15: Intentions
"It would destroy the Chandravanshi's," Aditya spoke in a confident tone."And what about you?" Akshita questioned.Aditya looked at Akshita, surprised by her words."I don't know what are your intentions. I have no idea about your plans, but I know that you're involved in this, whatever you will do to the Chandravanshi's, it's going to affect you as well. Correct me if I am wrong," Akshita spoke, walking towards Aditya.Aditya turned around, not looking at her younger sister anymore. "You have married Miral Chandravanshi and everyone knows she is a walking dynamite. She can burst anywhere, and a bomb would harm the others too. You're her husband, and technically speaking, the closest person to a woman is her husband, so you're going to bear the damages too," Akshita spoke."It doesn't matter," Aditya sighed.Akshita went quiet and looked at him while he turned around."It doesn't matter at all, even if it harms me, because it wouldn't harm you guys, it wouldn't harm the Shekhawat fa
CheckMate Chapter 16: Banter
Miral looked at the beer bottle in her hand. For the first time, she was hesitant to drink alcohol. She didn't know why, but the bitter words by Aditya were echoing in her ears, and it gave a boost to her hesitance.She gulped, slowly placed the bottle on the table and sighed."No. I won't drink," she announced, surprising Naveen and Aditya too."What? Why?" Naveen questioned."I am addicted to alcohol, and the solution for this isn't drinking a pint of beer," she calmly spoke."What do you mean?" He asked."I can't continue drinking like this, I don't want to be a chronic drunkard," Miral muttered.Aditya looked at Miral, and a mild smile appeared on his lips."I have responsibilities in my head, I have to prove my worth. I have power right now, and I want to hold on to that power and so, I can't be irresponsible at any cost," Miral firmly spoke."Miral. You're thinking too much. It's nothing like that. A drink won't harm," Naveen tried to reason out."A drink might not harm, but one
CheckMate Chapter 17: Duty
After speaking, Aditya left Miral and took a couple of steps back. Miral stayed quiet after listening to Aditya's words for a while. But then, she started laughing, looking at him dead in the eye."You know me well, Aditya Singh Shekhawat," she spoke while laughing.Aditya got confused at the sudden change of Miral's behaviour, he just looked at her and figured out what to say. "The big promise that you gave right now, you know that you don't even have to fulfil it. That's why you spoke that with such an ease," she spoke, finally stopping her laughter and turning around."And why so?" He responded."Because Miral Chandravanshi never proves anything to anyone," she confidently spoke.Now it was turn for Aditya to laugh at Miral's words. "Why do you keep forgetting that you're no more Miral Chandravanshi. You're Miral Singh Shekhawat, the lawfully wedded wife of Aditya Singh Shekhawat. And as the bloodline of Shekhawat claim, Shekhawats do have to prove themselves," he spoke, looking
CheckMate Chapter 18: Sight
After hanging up the call, Miral went to her room and saw Aditya lying on the bed with his eyes closed.Miral looked around, and for once she thought to sleep on the couch but then she wondered that sleeping there wouldn't be comfortable and after a long and hectic day, she wanted a peaceful sleep."This means I have to sleep beside this fool," she cussed under her breath.She didn't want to share a bed with Aditya, but she was too tired to think about an alternative. Finally, she took a deep breath and lay down beside him.The bed felt comfortable and warm, and that's why it didn't take her long to fall deep asleep.The next morning, As the sunlight peered into the room through the gap in the curtains, Aditya's sleep got disrupted. He slowly rubbed his eyes and turned around.The moment he opened his eyes, he froze. Miral was sleeping beside him and was in a deep sleep. He couldn't even move his eyes away from him. He just blankly stared at her as she looked beautiful. As he conti
CheckMate Chapter 19: Meeting
"We won't be doing anything that my father used to do. I won't be walking in his pre-defined footsteps."Miral announced, shocking everyone."What does that mean? Why would we do that?" One of the men in the meeting spoke."Because that would be better," she calmly spoke.Everyone present in the meeting room gasped, including Naveen. He couldn't understand what has gotten into Miral and why was she taking such adverse steps."But may I know the reason, why?" Naveen asked."Yes," Miral nodded.She took a deep breath and then looked around."Well, I did notice my father's ways. He used to pick up the tasks that were easiest to achieve. Something that would receive zero to no flak from the opposition and wouldn't involve much more stressful routines, but that's not beneficial for the people," Miral muttered."But that's easier for the party. We have less workload and less stress," one of the men argued."Are we working to stay in power and benefit the people or we're working just to fill
CheckMate Chapter 20: Dinner
The moment Miral entered the kitchen, she was shocked."What's going on?" She questioned as she looked around.Hearing Miral's voice, Aditya immediately turned around and looked at her. "Oh hey! You're back," he chirped."Yeah! But what the heck are you doing? What's all this?" She questioned."I will answer everything, but at first, go and freshen up. I have turned on the geyser, a hot shower would help you feel better and relax. Meanwhile, you shower, I will be done with the dinner preparation so that you can come down and eat," Aditya spoke in a warm tone."All of this?" She was still confused about everything."Do what I say," he scoffed.As Miral didn't have the energy to argue with him, she nodded and thought about doing whatever he was saying as that would be a better plan. She nodded and walked out of the kitchen quietly."I like this version of my feisty wife. She obeys me like a kitten," Aditya chuckled as Miral walked out.After having a warm and relaxing shower, Miral did
CheckMate Chapter 21: Rage
Miral immediately noticed that Aditya was looking at her phone. She picked up her phone and looked at him."I have to take this call," she muttered as she got up from the seat and walked out of the dining area.Aditya felt a bit pissed at Miral's sudden change of mood but he didn't react.Miral walked towards the balcony area and picked up the call."Yes, Naveen?" She spoke."What took you so long to pick up the phone?" Naveen questioned in a firm tone."I was having dinner with my husband," she answered.Naveen got shocked at Miral's answer. He felt uncomfortable when she mentioned the word husband."From when did you two start to bond?" He questioned."What's the work, Nav? I'm too hungry to answer these silly questions," she spoke in an irritated tone."I told you about the kid who's admitted to the hospital, right?" Naveen spoke."Yeah, so?" She answered."The kid is in ICU and in a life threatening situation. They're asking for two crore rupees, or they would report this to the p
CheckMate Chapter 22: Move
Naveen's mother was shocked after hearing Naveen's words. She just paused there, looking at her son and wondered what made him even to think about taking such a drastic step."That's not something good to do, Navu," she spoke in a panicked state."Maa! All I know is I want Miral at any cost. I didn't devote these many years just to be her some best friend and PA. I want her to be mine, and I would make sure that happens," Naveen growled."I won't support you in this," his mother replied."I do not need anyone's support. Just don't oppose me," he answered.She went quiet and looked down in frustration. "I don't know," she muttered in a low tone and walked out of the terrace.On the other side, Aditya was trying to sleep but wasn't able to. He was just turning sides in his bed. At last, he got frustrated and got up from the bed. He looked around and noticed Miral wasn't there, and then he looked at the time, it was 1:00 am."What is this girl doing? Working till late at night? She wou
