CHAPTER FOUR
                 His eyes were glimpsing with possessive glint. He left me last night with wandering thoughts. I'm concerned about how this will happen? We could elope yesterday. He picked to come back here. He's the bravest man, he's the king of a huge menacing group of people.        I palm my forehead. He has hired a personal beautician for me. I'm not looking at the same girl I saw myself in my daily life. I swallow hard as I gather my thoughts together. The ends of my hair are curled, makeup is giving me a look of a celebrity. The pistachio and golden lehenga is heavy with heavy embroidery work on them, with net dupatta and yellow and white roses' jewellery.         "Wow! So beautiful! " Saavi says and hugs me from behind. She is looking so glad. This smile comes on her lips only when she gets the most wanted thing.        I giggle, "Than

                 All were looking too excited today. Sim was wearing a blush pink lehenga and Achraj matching sherwani. She was looking so happy. I couldn't ignore Achraj' gaze on me while laavans. My heart shudders at the thought. I saw true love in his eyes. I hope it won't affect their married life. I'm worried about Sas but also relieved that Saavi is going to live with her.

My enemies are waiting to ambush. They'll seek to attack during the reception. I'm trying to be soft with her which is clearly not my nature, nor my brothers. They're smiling, pampering her because she's their queen. Our empire is run by three lions, by us. I'm the eldest one. Her family kept the truth of this dark world away from her, I wanna keep it concealed from her too. I got the gist behind this doing, but they brought her up without giving her any training.

She doesn't even know what I've planned for her.        She has to gain my trust if she wants her freedom. I don't think that I can act according to her thinking. I suppose she'll understand in some way, of course in a polite way. There's no fu*king way, I'll use violence with her. Arya and Ryan are protective, they're bound to a blood oath. She'll be safe with them. I still don't trus

CHAPTER EIGHT
                     I stare at the linear chandelier in the hall of our bedroom. It looks like the crown of the king.        It's beautiful all white but not pure white and lavender blue walls, a luxury king size bed with an extra tall headboard, huge bedroom decor. Walls are shining like newborn glass. Grey wave type curtains and sheer ceiling type curtains are adding more charm. It feels like I've stepped into another world.         I don't wanna wrap my mind around it. I sigh heavily. I rub my fingers over my forehead as it begins to pound.         Clenching my phone, I push myself up and take the stairs. It'll chase me after my death too. Did I do the right thing?        When I push the door open, my two gargantuan suitcases are laying at the foot of the bed. I haven't seen what my family has pac

CHAPTER NINE
                        My feet freeze when I hear her clearly. The determination pierces my heart. " I'll kill myself." She says again.        Her grip on my arm begins to lose. I hoist her up. Her eyes close and her head falls back. She stops crying. I've heard people crying before. Her cries cut my heart deep. I ascend the stairs but stop.        " What happened to her? " Arya asks.        " I don't know, " I've seen girls with fighting skills. She knows a little but uses it fully.        " I hear her saying... " He couldn't say a word. Death is a companion to us.        I quicken my pace toward the clinic. My glance lands on Devon. His nose is bleeding. I would have killed someone if anyone dared to touch my brother. She broke his nose in front of me. She sneaked out. I shou

                       I sit on the top step. It will be easy to move down the stairs. I can't hop. it will send me to the hospital for days. I won't be able to attend any reception.       " Love, did you fall? " Yuvaan ascends the stairs, two at one time.       " No, I was... " I anxiously look at him.       He extends his hand. Reluctantly, I hold his hand. He scoops me up, " It'll heal quickly. If you'll rest. No more mischief making. " He says.        It stuns me, " I'm not a mischief-maker. " I shyly say.        " Aren't you? " He cocks his eyebrows looking down at me. I shake my head, " If you have told me that you wanna go out. I would have come with you. " He says.       He's right. I purse my lips, " I'm sorry. " I whisper.  &nbs

She loves little things, she doesn't need expensive things to be happy.       " We can't join you for breakfast tomorrow. We need to see business. Local mobs are creating problems."

                A fleeting smile comes over my lips when last night's dreams are still hovering over my mind. I saw my family, my sisters. For a second, I thought. I'm back in my old life. But it's not happening. I can never forget him. I'm doubting I'll be able to smile without him.       I turn on my back and freeze. I shut my eyes tightly. I open my eyes again.      ' Why are we sharing a bed? He didn't tell me we are sharing a bed. My toes curl, when my gaze stops on his bare chest. He's truly very handsome. His hair is covering his forehead. Reluctantly, I forward my hand. My mind is chiding me to pull it back. That's not what we've signed the contract for. I don't know how to take the next step.
