Chapter 59

   Siya's pov:

            "Maa...maa...Ari..." I could feel my daughter tapping my cheeks with her delicate palms, I was trying hard to open my eyes but couldn't. Suddenly I felt a gush of water poured on my face and sat up abruptly struggling to breath.

          "Get up bitch, I don't have all day." Told that heartless animal and I pulled my daughter to me next second. She looked terrified. Ajay got hold of my hair and dragged me to a nearby table making me yelp in pain.

         "Look at this device carefully, I specially made it for you." I looked at that confused it looked like a gun. God! I guessed he was going to kill me, Arjun please come and Save Ari. I need to prolong my life till my husband reach here.

          "No... no don't think too much love, it's not a gun but its a special weapon." Told Ajay, making my stomach crunch in fear, He took that weapon in his hand and pressed it over my stomach.

           When he pulled the trigger I felt waves of electric current passing through my stomach making me scream in pain. I fell on the ground holding my stomach in one hand and my baby on the other no matter what, I would never let him touch my daughter. Then again I felt the same strands of electric waves passing through my upper back, I couldn't even scream of pain. Not in this whole year I have seen my daughter cry so much, that bastard have to pay for this. I tried to pull a smile on my face to console my baby after few minutes of torture I was left with the girls Ajay kidnapped for trafficking along with my baby. Those girls started crying looking at my condition.

     "He is a beast Akka, we feel very sorry for you. We can't even help ourselves how can we help you?" Cried one girl, she must be around 16 years and I was happy about her feeling sorry for me while in reality her condition was worse.

    I tried to get up but failed. My body was totally numb and the pain in my stomach is killing me. Those girls helped me lean on a wall, I made Ari sit on my lap and wiped her tears. "Baby, mo..mmy don't want you to cry. You are such a bold girl isn't it. Girls are not supp..osed to cry, we aren't meant only to cry." I stammered due to pain and told the last sentence looking at the girls, then I turned my gaze to Ari, my baby was looking at me intently "Listen Ari, daddy is coming. Your acchu will not let us rot in this hell. He's going to kill that moron and take us back to our house. Look... Now stop crying." My baby stopped crying and hugged me.

           "How many of you are here?" I asked the girls. "We are totally seventy Akka, we are from village as well as town. They are planning to sell us I'm so scared Akka. " she told me crying.

          "Now what did I say? Girls are not only made to cry. Think dear... We are tot...ally seventy one. They are less in number comparing to us. We can es..cape easily but you people should have guts." I told breathing hard to control my pain but they were too weak to listen me. I assured them that everything will be fine and we all would go home soon.

               "See who's here...come come... Welcome to my place Arjun." I heard Ajay. I struggled but the moment I saw Arjun I gathered my strength and got up along with Ari. Before I could reach Arjun, Ajay caught hold of my hair.

           "Where are you going bitch?" He asked me "Aaaa... Arjun!" I called his name. "Leave them you bastard or I'll make your death worse." Arjun screamed and was trying to reach me around seven men were holding him but still they couldn't stop Arjun from moving.

               Ajay chocked my throat making it difficult for me to breath "Stop right there if not I'll kill your beautiful wife right now." It made Arjun to stop, Ajay left me to cough, I was sure there must be red marks of impression around my throat.

      I fell on the ground and saw them beating Arjun to black and blue. My throat was sore and I couldn't even scream for my husband I couldn't even beg them to stop. After a while they made Arjun sit on a chair and tied his hand from back, our eyes locked. Both of our eyes were filled with regret and pain. Regret, that we couldn't save each other when Ajay was hurting us. Pain, for being careless and dropping our daughter into this situation.

       "Get up!" He touch my cheeks with his shoes. I tried and got up after a struggle, my baby was hugging my legs with fear but she didn't cry, she was glaring at Ajay.
 
             "I hate your husband Siya, you know I don't want to hurt you like this but why did you married that use for nothing idiot. Moreover you have a baby with him. I wanted to make you mine, I wanted to marry you because beautiful girls like you are meant for me to enjoy throughout life. But you loved him and after that terrible incident, why did you married him? For this little piece of filth isn't it?" He pointed at my baby. Before I could shove him he took Ariya in his arms.

         "Leave her..." I spoke but only air came out from my throat and it pained like hell.

         "Stop it, you bastard.... Don't touch my daughter." Raged Arjun. Arjun's face was covered with blood, his lips has got a cut and I could find many bruises on his body.

        On the other hand Ariya was looking into Ajay's eyes with anger and coldness, she was glaring at him. "Humhum... You are indeed his daughter, what's you name...aaaa... Ariya? Right? Are you glaring at me, at Ajay?" He asked my daughter.

          "Look at my hands, your dad sliced my fingers for trying to  touch your mother. Now let's play a game, your mom is going to pluck all nails of your dad's fingers at first, and then his fingers, and then his hand. " he told looking at my glaring daughter matching her glare.

       My earth started to shake listening him. "I wi..ll do no such thin..g you heartle..ss anim..al." I pulled my voice out. "Oh, really... Let's see that Mrs. Arjun." He pronounced the words spitting pure venom.

       He held Ariya by her frock, in a way she was flying in air and stretched her over the pool of sharks. They were trying to catch and eat my daughter. That was something, I wish no mother could even think. I grew her inside me for nine months, felt each and every move of her in me, brought her into this world experiencing immense pain.  Did I took all these efforts to feed my daughter for Sharks?

No.......

      "Do it, if not I'll drop your daughter into the pool. Bloody Do it.." Screamed Ajay, my daughter was crying in his arms shaking her legs and hands.

       "Don't think to much Siya... Do it... You have to do it for our baby." Screamed Arjun. I cried my heart out slowly approaching him.
   
         "Fast Siya, take the cutter from the table and start with plucking his nails. If not..." Told Ajay and lowered Ari onto the pool.

       "No.. No.. noo please I'll do it." I moved close to Arjun, he didn't meet my eyes. I knew he was guilty for leaving me and Ari alone. I slowly touched his forehead and wiped the blood, he looked at me and his eyes pleaded  me to forgive him.

  But why it wasn't his fault.

       "Fast..." Yelled Ajay. I closed my eyes and plucked the first nail from Arjun left thumb finger and started crying vigorously. Blood started to ooze out from his finger and I couldn't stand the fact that I was hurting my Arjun.

      "Don't cry Siya, please... It.. It's not paining go for the other nail." Told Arjun and showed me his forefinger. I cried falling on his lap. How much I wish even my deadly enemy couldn't experience my current situation.

       "Wooow.... You know how much pleasure I'm getting seeing you both like this. Come on Siya, go for the next finger. " told Ajay and I plucked Arjun's left forefinger nail. I couldn't breath, my heart was beating erratically that it would stop anytime, my head was feeling heavy and aching badly along with my body, my eyes are burning, the blood smell around me was nauseating.

   God! I wish, I could die right then for that torture.
    
            Every one around us started crying, even Ajay's men felt bad for us but none spoke against Ajay. "Sir, she is a baby. Leave her sir. Kill them what if she falls inside the pool?" Asked Karthik I knew him when I worked for Ajay. At least one man had a heart to talk for my daughter.

           Ajay slowly put Ariya down, she tried to run towards us but Ajay stomped on her gown so that she couldn't run away. God! My baby was scared. I tried to move towards us but stopped the moment Karthik fell on the pool.

      No... Ajay pushed Karthik into the pool all I could hear was his screams and cries when that two sharks pounced on Karthik, their prey and ripped his body out. The pool turned red with blood.

         I hugged Arjun immediately out of fear, he nudged me to untie him. " You ungrateful dog, I threw bones for you and you bark for that bastard Arjun. Listen all of you, if anyone goes against me, I'll threw you all into this pool. Am I clear?" Ajay was yelling at his men while I took the opportunity to untie Arjun.

        We both ran to Ari and Arjun took her into his arms making Ajay stumble and fall down due to sudden jerk. Arjun hugged me using his other hand and I started crying.

     "Catch them." Told Ajay but none of his men moved. We looked at them shocked along with Ajay. All his men looked at each other and stepped back.

       One among his men spoke " We are not your dogs sir, we work for you, we work for money not for bones. Do you think we all are happy working with you? No... We are not happy. We choose this job because of hunger and to save our families. Why did you killed Karthik Sir? She was a small girl, Karthik sir might have seen his daughter in her and requested you to leave that baby... But you... You killed your own men and made his daughter an orphan."

         Ajay was stunned for a moment and looked at us with a killing desire. "I will take care of you all later... Now come on Arjun fight with me, if you win take your family and leave, if I win...you know what will happen. Let's begin." Ajay spoke enraged.

           Arjun gave Ariya to me and stepped forward but I held his wrist and shook my head in negative. I was scared.

        "Trust me." That was the only words from Arjun and I left his hand.

Because I trust my husband!

      Then began the war, Ajay was so furious he kept throwing punches at Arjun and every time he punch my body jerks. Arjun lost so much blood already and was totally exhausted to fight with that beast, God! help him.  Ajay kicked Arjun making him fall on the floor. Ari was glaring at Ajay continuous my gaze on Ari shifted back to my husband when he coughed blood.

    "Arjun..." "Acchuu.." both I and Ari yelled at the same time making Arjun look at us. He then stood up and started punching Ajay back. He gave one strong kick on his face making him fall on the floor. Ajay opened his mouth to spit out his broken teeth.

Yuck!

     Arjun didn't leave any opportunity for Ajay to hit him, he slammed Ajay's face on a iron post giving him a black eye. He broke his wrist, twisting it back and yelled "How dare you touched my daughter?" making Ajay scream out of pain.

    And then bashed him upside down and broke his right leg making him scream and yelled "How dare you hurt my wife." Arjun then took a chair and broke it on that bastard Ajay.

         Ajay screamed and became unconscious. Arjun was panting hard hunging his head low with dripping blood from wounds all over his body.

Silence spread over the place, may be this was what the say *Calm after Strom.*

      Arjun raised his head and looked at us. I gave him a smile but still couldn't control my tears, he started hopping towards us because of his wounded leg. I put Ari down from my arms and clutched my stomack due to pain. For a moment I closed my eyes and open again, I saw Ari picking a nearby stone. "Aaaarrrhhhh..." Ajay came at the back of Arjun screaming out of rage as well as holding a broken wood log from the chair to hit Arjun.

           Next moment his head was hit with a stone, Ajay stumbled for balance and fell on the pool of Sharks nearby him and screamed when the deadly fishes started slashing him.

          I was dumbstruck and looked at my daughter who was panting angrily at the direction of Ajay. After a while Ariya ran to my husband, hugged him and traced his face with her baby hands to wipe his blood.

            Ariya threw the stone at Ajay to hurt him because she couldn't stand anyone hurting her dad, apparently, She killed Ajay for hurting her dad, her Acchu.

          Ajay, the king of demons, a dreadful killer and a psycho. There were no count for the lives he killed out of selfishness, ego and also to show his powers. He was after my husband from his birth, only God knows why he hates Arjun so much. He never let my husband live in Peace, he never let my Arjun live his life happily like every other normal person.

             Arjun was fighting him from his birth, he was still fighting Ajay till the previous moment. At times, I used to question God for giving so much restless nights to my Arjun. But today, I got the answer.

       Ajay's death was written in the hands of a baby, Arjun's blood and flesh, his daughter, his heartbeat, his Ariya. It was written in the delicate hands of a small baby who cannot withstand anyone hurting her dad.

            Ajay's death was a result of Pure love, A Love between a father and daughter.

           I ran to them with all the enery left in me and hugged them. Arjun caged us in between his big hands making me feel more safe and secure. I looked at him and told " You were right Arjun, this girl is indeed your heartbeat."
