6. I am broken.
Ananya's pov
I closed the door behind me with a soft bang, and was about to dwell myself in the agony when someone knocked. I knew it who it was, at least that's what I thought but to my utter surprise there stood the person I was least expecting to come to me.
"Mrs. Oberoi." I acknowledged my tone curt yet polite, seriously I was in no mood for any of this marriage shit and the last thing I wanted to do was to snap at the old woman.
"How are you dear?" Her voice held one thing that I hated.
Pity, sympathy.
"I am fine. Just need some rest." My tone was firm, a clear disguised statement telling her to back off so that I could spend some time alone, but fate had other plans.
"I heard what your grandmother said." Tone laced with pity and I controlled the urge to snap.
"Mrs. Oberoi, I appreciate your concern but the last thing I want is pity from you or anyone for that matter. So I suggest you giv

Saving Grace 7. Promise or Threat ?
Ananya's pov I woke up to a massive headache, and found it hard to even open my eyes. Standing in the front of the mirror I took in my appearance, my eyes were puffy, cheeks were stain with dry tears and skin was pale. I looked horrible, as if I had just lost the love of my life. But technically my situation was like that only, Ma wanted me to find the love of my life so that I could live a happy life, which was far from what I wanted. As I took the medicines, the moments from last day came rushing down in my mind. And I realized how rude I was to Mrs. Oberoi. Yes she pushed me to my limit, but still it didn't justify my behaviour towards her. I shouldn't have been disrespectful towards her. I made a mental note to apologise to her later. I got ready to leave for the office, not my office, I could do my work from home. I was going to meet Shori at his office. It had been quite a time since I had a chat with my brother. I went to his
Saving Grace 8. She said "Yes" ?
Ananya's pov. It would be an understatement if I said I was pissed. I was furious. How dare he?. The nerve of that bastard. Who the hell does he think he is ? He is very wrong if he thought I would get scared of him and agree to anything that he has to say. The hell I would. He might be able to dominate others but not me. From what I could understand, was that he was furious as to what I said to his Nani. It was understandable, what was not was that he can't threaten me like that. No way in hell I would marry that, he might me a good man according to Rudy but for me he is an arrogant asshole, which I strongly dislike with my every being. On my way back to home I was greeted by an overjoyed Ma. The reason was, she had found the perfect man for me and is sure that I would like him and we would get married. A big part of me was shouting that run woman, you aren't not the one to have a married life. Run before you screw up your or someone else's life.
Saving Grace 9. She isn't that easy.
Ananya's pov. "Sweetheart what do you think of this dress ?" Ma asked me for the umteenth time and I didn't have the energy to say anything, so I just nodded. it was half past ten and Ma was excited for the lunch date I had with Veer and I was too. Not for the date, but I was waiting for him to stand me up. and I knew he would because I made sure of it. My plan was simple I was going to put Veer in a badlight, and would show him as a bad guy for me and then Ma would deny for this alliance. As simple as that sounded it was difficult because Veer was a persistent man, and that was what scaring me. I didn't want to get married to him. But I just couldn't speak at all. By then Ma had made my room a god damn boutique and my every single dress that according would work for a date was on my bed, my sofa. My whole room was a mess. Not like it wasn't before, because I am a messy person, but this was another level of it. Ma hones
Saving Grace 10. I will marry him.
Veer's pov. "I should have known that, she is a genius in tech. She ain't that easy." Rudra's voice rang in my ears but didn't reach my ears. I was still occupied by her last words that she said to me. And I knew she wasn't bluffing, she made a promise and fucking meant it. She wanted me to back down. Her voice was filled with venom, a dark aura covering it, her eyes held a fire in them, she wasn't afraid of me or anything. Even if the devil would come and threaten her to marry me I knew she would fight him and send him back to hell. Where people were scared of my stone cold face, she had the audacity to enter my personal space and make a promise that she would ruin my life. And both of us knew she could do it, if she wanted to. Today was just a trailer, she was coming after me. When I entered the cafe and saw her in that tight fitted clothes something in me snapped. I was furious at her but still I admired her beauty. Her pale skin to her soft features
Saving Grace 11. Moron.
Ananya's pov. I was again getting ready for the dinner with the Oberois, only the difference was that I knew what was going on. I knew who was coming, for what purpose and I was going to say yes. Forever. This was it. It was my fate. But the strange thing was that after all that chaos, Veer didn't say anything. He was quiet. All along. I wondered what was cooking up in that big head of his. I didn't bothering apologising for the whole virus drama, even though I knew it was a extreme measure from my side, and I felt guilty about it. I made a mental note to do it tonight and then ask him what was he thinking. I went downstairs only to find Ma fretting over small things and as to how everything needed to be perfect since her daughter's soon to be husband is coming for dinner. Everything looked perfect according to me, and she didn't needed to do that, but then again who was I to stop her. I knew she would make sure t
Saving Grace 12. Kiss.
Ananya's pov. I always knew that my guardian angels were actually having picnic when my fate was written, because at every point in my life, it was necessary to have drama. Or may be it was just my family who loved drama. Fate always had plans for me already, she made sure to make my life a God damn series with no ending, every ending had a twisted beginning. Here I thought that the dinner would go well since I had agreed to the wedding and then in just a week I would be married. But no, there has to be a drama. So the drama started since my beloved brother decided it has to be today where he would run away with Ruhi, his girlfriend for past 4 years. "What the actual fuck?" Rudy screeched like a hyena that Shori had to clamp his hand over his mouth and he pulled him behind the wall, caging him. If I didn't knew that they both were straight, I would have believed that they had chemistry. The position was quite compromisi
Saving Grace 13. Love?
Ananya's pov. Few moments before "We can't let them see Ritesh and Ruhi, or it would be disaster." My voice was a whisper, but frantic. I locked my eyes to Veer's to find that he was already looking into mine and then the bulb in my head lit up. I knew the idea was stupid, but it was because of his proximity that had made me loose my sanity. Also it had been one of my fantasies ever since I had seen him. Before he could react, or my sub conscious could butt in and stop me from doing it, I pressed my lips to his by pulling him close by the lapels of his coat. His arms around me stilled and his heart beat increased under my palms and my heart stopped beating. I didn't move my lips, they remained still on his, waiting for the worst to come. Rejection. After nearly 3 seconds, he responded back. His arms tightened around my waist as he pulled me up on my tip toes, my arms going around his neck, and I tugged at the end of his black locks.
Saving Grace 14. Shit, I love him.
Veer's pov. Her chocolatey taste still lingered in my tongue, I could feel her jade smooth skin under my hands, and ever since that kiss all I wanted was more of her. I always wanted to see that tattoo of hers clearly since we first met, but today I felt it's ink under my palm, her lavender smell and chocolatey tongue acted like heroine and I was fucking addict at the first taste. It was surprise for me when she called me and invited me to dinner and agreed to marriage, aftr whatever she did today. I had to give her the credit that she was not only smart but brave. What she did was crazy but at the same time brave. The girl had guts, not only she was able to invade my mind, but now she was also stirring something inside me. I knew that feeling but I wasn't ready to accept it yet. After what my father did to my mother such kind of attachment had always been on my black list. But there she was Ananya, she didn't even know but she was on my mind all
