CheckMate Chapter 9: Ceremony
On the day of the oath-taking ceremony.The ceremony area was prepared according to the norms, keeping in mind about the security and well-being of the people attending it. Ministers, high-rank officers, and many VIP people were about to attend the ceremony. The dress code was finalized and slowly the people started to pour in and grabbed their seats.Miral was in her car, looking at the ceremony ground. She was nervous and looked different than she had ever looked before. Instead of her regular jeans and Kurta, she had worn a white suit, minimal makeup and neatly tied hair. She was nervous and a lot was going on in her head. Even though she looked nervous, she was clear about what she wanted. None from Miral's family accompanied her to the oath-taking ceremony because of Raghuveer's situation. "Ma'am, we have reached our destination," the driver of the car spoke as he noticed Miral sitting in the car for more than ten minutes."I know, Balwant. Can you please give me five more mi
CheckMate Chapter 10: Rift
Aditya gulped at the mere sight of his father, who was looking at him, giving him a disapproving look.He couldn't say a word as Manohar barged inside the house, trying to figure out what was happening."What is going on?" He shouted."Hello... Mr Shekhawat," the marriage registrar spoke, giving Manohar a respectful nod."You?" Manohar tend to recognise the registrar, "what are you doing here?" He questioned."Actually, your son just got married. Congratulations," the registrar cheerfully replied."Married?" Manohar was shocked after listening to his words. He looked at Aditya who was unable to face him and then his eyes fell on Miral who was looking at them cluelessly."Yeah!" The registrar nodded.Manohar chuckled and looked at him."So? Is the wedding done?" Manohar asked."Yeah!" He replied."So, you may leave now," Manohar responded with a sarcastic smile.The registrar looked at Manohar and somewhat understood his reaction. He gulped and nodded."Have a good day!"The registrar
CheckMate Chapter 11: First Night
"My parents?" Miral asked, confused at Aditya's words."Yes, my dear wife. Your parents. Or how else would you reside with me?" Aditya winked."But baba is in the hospital. Mom wouldn't understand this situation, and everything else. Why would I do this right now?" She argued."Because that's the deal. Also, you aren't going to say them the exact reason for marriage," he chuckled."So, what am I going to say?" She questioned, looking at him entirely confused."That you married me because you love me, and you did this right now because you knew your baba would never accept this marriage," he calmly responded."Are you going to make my family hate me?" Miral straight up asked him.Aditya smirked as he held her waist and pulled her close. She bumped into his chest and looked into his dark and intense eyes."If my family hates me, why not yours? After all, we're partners now, we should be equal," he muttered in a deep voice.Aditya's words sent shivers down Miral's spine. Whatever she did
CheckMate Chapter 12: Confrontation
The moment Miral shouted Aditya's name, Aditya felt shivers down his spine. He thought Miral would stammer or try to make excuses to avoid revealing the truth of their marriage to her family but she did nothing of that sort, and it somewhat shook him.He took a deep breath and entered the hall with a proud smile. As he walked, the eyes of everyone present in the house fell on him, looking at him in entire shock. No one could even seem to believe what was happening."Miral? Is this some kind of joke?" Ranveer questioned, looking at Aditya."Well, sorry to break your intuition, this isn't. I married him," Miral confidently replied, looking at Aditya.Aditya was looking at Miral, and the way she was behaving, it terrified him. She wasn't looking worried about the reaction of her family and it felt like she knew what she was doing.The next moment, Seerat grabbed Miral's wrist and pulled her to an isolated corner of the hall. She jerked Miral's hand and made her look at her."What's going
CheckMate Chapter 13: Responsibility
"But Ranveer, Miral is my sister," Seerat complained after hearing Ranveer's harsh words."I know she is your sister, baby. But tell me, wouldn't you choose the right thing to do? Or would you go against everything right for the sake of your sister?" Ranveer asked in a soft tone."Mmm." Seerat went quiet. She couldn't say anything against Ranveer's words. She knew that Ranveer was a person who would never be dishonest to anyone, his righteousness was his pride. But on the other hand, she was worried that if Miral really did something wrong, what would she do then? What she would choose or how she would react?On the other hand, Miral and Aditya sat in the car. MiralMiral was silent with a straight face, she had no expressions on her and this proved to be difficult for Aditya as he couldn't decode what was going on in her mind."So, we're equal now? Right?" Aditya muttered, looking at Miral and smirking."Huh?" She looked at him."I mean, my so-called dad basically disowned me, you're
CheckMate Chapter 14: Commitment
"So you do care about me?" Miral questioned."Nope," Aditya chuckled, "if I cared about you, I wouldn't play these games with you, indirectly making you get kicked out of your house and blah blah. I can never care about you.""Then how would you explain this concern?" She retorted."You were the one who said that I am that husband who feeds off on her wife's power and income?" He questioned in a taunting tone.She glared at her."Maybe you said correct," he winked and walked out of the hall."I so wish I could break his skull and kill him," Miral grumbled in frustration as she turned around and sat on the couch.As she sat there, her eyes fell on the beer bottle kept there, she was about to pick it but at that moment, Aditya's words echoed in her head. She gulped and kept her distance from the booze."Fine! I won't drink unnecessarily until I'm holding this responsibility. I won't let any bad name hamper the image of my baba," she told herself as she picked up her phone.She immediate
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
