It pained me more than anything to see you shedding tears and knowing that I was the reason behind it.

"How dare you?", she whispered slapping him tightly.

"Kimaya", he warned as she glared daggers at him. She struggled in his hold as his arms tighten around her.

"Leave me", she shouted when he covered her mouth.

"Don't", he glared at her.

She bit his hand away pushing him away from her with all her strength. She took a deep breath after getting away from me.

"You don't have the right to touch me. Not anymore", she told him narrowing her eyes at him keeping her hand on her chest trying to calm her breathing.

"Kimaya, listen to me", he tried to make her understand holding her hand but she slapped his hands away.

"No, Please. You yourself said that I don't deserve to stay with you then why are you here now. Papa clearly told you to give me a divorce but you don't want that as well. What do you want from me?", she said glaring at him.

"You know how much my mother is worried for my future. Papa doesn't leave a moment to shout at her for choosing a man like you for me for destroying my life", she told him jabbing her finger in his chest.

She took a deep breath before pushing her hair back trying to control herself.

"Do one thing, kill me. Everything would be sought out after that", she said looking in his eyes as he pushed her again in the wall punching the wall beside her head making her close her eyes in fear.

"Don't say that. I can never think to even let a stone prick your feet because of me and you think I'll kill you", he spoke glaring daggers at her. She scoffed at his words before looking back at him.

"You already killed my soul by your humiliation that day. This is just a body living for her parents' happiness otherwise I don't think there is a reason for me to live anymore", she told him with hatred completely visible in her eyes.

"How dare you", he growled at her making her shiver before meeting his eyes.

"Your life no longer belongs to you, Kimaya. I have control over everything that belongs to you", he told her punching again on the wall.

"At least let me speak why I did that", he told her when she showed her his hand.

"Let me give you the news before that", she told him pushing him lightly as he raised his eyebrows at her.

"So there is this guy, my father knows. He is Raj Tauji's wife's nephew. And they really like me for their son. I have seen him from childhood and I do like him. And the crazy thing is that he trust me", she told him with a smirk on her face as he laughed loudly.

It was not really a usual laugh but a scary one that made her smirk disappear as she gulped.

"He is asking for his death", Randhir spoke shaking his head making goosebumps erupt on Kimaya's body.

"You are not doing any such thing", Kimaya told him as he tilted his head to the right tracing her jaw while holding her arms not letting her push him.

"He has the courage to look at my precious wife. Why shouldn't I pay him a visit tomorrow", he said with an evil smile.

"Aap chahte kya hai mujhse"

"What do you want from me?", she asked glaring at him.

"Mai tumhe chahta hu, meri jaan"

"I want you, my life", he said with a sick smirk on his face. It was like she was looking at some psychopath when she looked in his eyes.

"Where was your love when you broke me?", she couldn't help but whisper making him look at her with pain evident in his eyes.

"I have a reason", he said making her shake her head.

"You broke me. You humiliated me in front of your whole family. Then you said I don't deserve to stay in your heart. What else do you want me to hear? That you think I slept with that man as well", she asked with teary eyes done with his forcing behavior.

"Done then. I slept with him and you know what he was able to make me feel satisfied which you can never do", she told him glaring daggers at him as a big fat tear fall down her eyes. He closed his eyes fisting his hands trying to calm his anger.

"Do you want me to tell you how good I felt in his arms? I can tell you that as well", she spoke as he shook his head.

"Kimaya don't", he warned her as she shook her head smiling painfully at him.

"It was so pleasurable you heard me", she said walking closer to him. He growled before pulling her closer to him wrapping his arms around her waist making her gasp in fear.

"When I say no. It means a no. Don't pull out the dark side of me. I know you didn't cheat on me", he spoke and the moment he let out this statement another hard slap came across his cheek.

"You are late to say this. It's been a month already", she told him with more tears falling down her cheek.

"No Maya. I knew this all along. The moment I got those pictures, I knew it's not like this. But I need to act alone", he said trying to make her understand.

"Act alone. Excuse me. Is my life a plaything to you where you act around?", she asked widening her eyes before shaking her head in disgust.

"Kimaya, listen to me", he pulled her closer to him.

"I can't", she told him looking down tiredly.

"Neighbors ask me where my husband is? How the man who can't stay five days without me let me stay here for a month? How he didn't even come to meet me once? Why I am looking so sad", she said looking at him with teary eyes.

"What should I tell them that my husband said that I cheated on him? And now he is saying that he acted all along", she asked looking at him with helplessness.

"Kimaya, I know it broke you. I am not happy either. You know you are like oxygen to me. You are the only reason for my sane behavior. I am losing my mind every moment I stay without you", he whispered wiping her tears.

"There were cameras around the whole Ahlawat mansion", he said making her eyes widen.

"I wanted to keep you away from all this dirty world but the business world is deeper than you think. Losing a single consignment can lead to people getting bankrupt. They couldn't hurt me before knowing that I never cared about anybody but the moment you entered my life, I started getting affected by your presence. I love you and nothing can change this thing even if you yourself deny to believe it", He spoke making her blink a few times trying to understand his words.

"One of my business rivals lost another consignment because of me so he made a big plan to make me weak and the only way to make me weak was taking you away from me but with the security around you, It wouldn't have been possible so they did this", he told her making her lips shiver a little.

"You knew this all along", she asked softly as he nodded.

"I did the moment I got those pictures. And the moment I noticed a secret camera behind a showpiece in our room. It was done by one of the servants so I played along but I think I overdid everything", he told her making her push him away from her.

 "Overdid seriously? You just broke us. Even if you make me understand everything, do you think my family especially my father will ever agree to send me back with you", she asked as he stared at her with pain clearly visible in his eyes.

"He was angry I agree and he should be. He slapped me as well. He is having great strength for his age", he spoke making her frown.

"Is this a joke to you? How dare you make fun of these things? You know there can be no us anymore. My family is all ready to get me married to Vishesh",  she told him as his eyes harden immediately.

"You think I am having fun doing this. I knew when their first step is so dirty I can't even think what their second step would be. They had cameras in our bedroom. What if we got intimate that time? Do you have any sense or not? I am not doing this for fun. I am getting nothing from this", he told her making her nod her head.

"But what I am telling you is a big truth. That whole incident affected my family a lot and I don't think there can be us again. They won't allow it. Even I myself won't allow it. You are a genius man and I don't have any shame to believe that but I can't trust your words anymore. What if it's just a lie to get me back. I'll do what my father wants me to do. And what if you are saying true in future also your business rivals make me their target. I can't take a risk", she said walking away when he held her wrist.

"You are being selfish", he told her as she smirked at his words.

"Till now you were the one selfish between us now I am changing places with you. I want to be happy, not scared in my life. I don't want your money or anything. I just want a peaceful family not all this drama in my life. I want to have kids safely with my partner. I don't want to feel scared all the time that anytime anyone of your rivals come and destroys our happily ever after", she said.

"I am warning you, Kimaya. You are mine and you would remain mine till my last breath. I won't let you hold another man's hand. Not till the time, I am alive", he told her making her shiver. She looked back at him only to find his eyes already on her face.

"You are being obsessive here", she told him as he smirked the same evil look on his face.

"I don't look good while being normal, wifey", he said winking at her making her glare at him before pulling her hands away from him running away through the empty dark street. He continued looking at her running figure disappearing in the darkness before gritting tightening his jaw he started punching on the wall remembering her words. She would not listen to him easily that is her nature.

After all, she is his lioness. How could he expect less from her but before that he need to see what he could do with this new guy ruining his love story?

"Shantanu", he called suddenly as his brother came out of the other side of the street looking at him respectfully.

"I want you to get all information about Raj Maan's wife's nephew whatever his name is Vansh, Vaibhav. I don't care. I want all information about him most importantly his weakness and why is he so quick to send a proposal for my wife who is still married to me", Randhir spoke with fire clearly visible in his eyes.

"Any commands for Bhabhi?", Shantanu asked looking at the way from where she left.

"Why was she in the hospital?", Randhir asked as Shantanu stayed silent for a few moments which made Randhir look at him. Shantanu reached back to get a box from his pocket.

He passed it to Randhir who frowned looking at it.

He opened the box only to freeze at his place.

"She is pregnant", Shantanu said making Randhir stare at it with a small smile.

"Is she known to this?", Randhir asked when he remembered her running.

"It won't have been safe. So before her reports reached the doctor, I changed them. She did take a pregnancy test at home which showed her being positive but after contacting the hospital, she thinks that she isn't pregnant", Shantanu said as Randhir nodded.

"When did you find about her taking the test?", Randhir asked covering the box.

"The day when you pushed her out", Shantanu said bitterly making Randhir stare at him with a hard look.

"You should've told me before you idiot. I don't even know if she is having any complications in this pregnancy. What if she eats something wrong? There are so many things a girl should avoid in pregnancy", Randhir spoke.

"But there is something else to be worried about more?", Shantanu said which made Randhir look at him.

"Her father is a very stone-hearted man. He may be a lovable father for his daughter but if he came to know about her being pregnant, he won't take a moment to abo...", Shantanu was speaking when Randhir asked him to stop.

"I am getting her back. Everything is already taken care of", Randhir spoke moving to his car.

"How?", Shantanu asked following him.

"That you will find out soon", Randhir spoke as Shantanu opened the back seat of the car for him to enter. Randhir looked at the way where she left for the last time before getting inside.

Shantanu closed the door before getting in the passenger's seat.
