Chapter 75: Mystery

"Did you call my Dadi and tell my location to her?" Ananya asked as soon as she entered the stranger's room. "What did she said? Did she come right?"

An evil smile spread across his face when he saw her gorgeous figure clad in a saree. Her body is so tempting. He is craving to fuck her.

"Close the door first" Man instructed.

"What?"

"Don't you trust me? You think I will not help you from your monster's husband's cage?" The stranger said, hiding his cunning smile.

"No..I don't mean..I..actually.." Oblivious of his real intention, she obeyed him and shut the door.

"It's okay. You don't have to do this. I thought you were in need so I extended my hand for help. Instead of being grateful, you are doubting my-" He pretended to be upset.

"No, not at all"

Ananya felt guilty. She cursed herself and went forward. "Sorry for making you upset. Actually I don't trust people easily as my loved ones are the main reason for my destruction. My own sister ditched me by making me marry a drunken man of my father's age. I just hate her." She tightened her grip in a tight punch.

"I feel sorry for you" He placed his hand on her shoulder. She looked at him feeling uncomfortable. He made her sit on a stool and his hand over her. His sudden alien touch flinches her.

"I am your friend. You can share your plight with me," His hand went to brush her cheek. Repulsively, she inches back and rose on her feet.

"I need to go back. My husband may-" She raised her foot to walk away when suddenly her saree was held by him.

"What are you doing? Let me go" She tried to wave it off from his grip but his next move paralyzed her.

With a force, he jerks her saree causing it to slip from her shoulder. Instantly, she hugged herself in order to cover her chest from his hungry eyes.

Her eyes widened in shock knowing his motives.

"How dare you" Angrily, she twisted back and carried her hand to slap him hard. He held it and pulled her close.

"Leave me. You told me you will rang my family and help me to get rid off this place-

"Of Course I do. But before that you have to entertain me." She stared at him with shock.

"Nothing in this world is for free. I will help only if you pleasure me tonight" She got stiffened hearing that.

Fear started to arise within her. She doesn't know what to do, how to save herself. She made the biggest mistake coming here and now she is facing the consequence..

Darkness engulfed her life. One by one life is putting her into tough situations.

She made some attempts to run away. Reaching the door, she tries to unlock the door, but he makes all her attempts in vain by tearing her blouse from behind.

"Please No..I beg you..I am married..don't do this to me" He laughed out loud.

"Married? You called yourself married. I know that man is not liable to fulfill your physical needs. That's why I am telling you to forget everything for one night and compromise with me. If you agree willingly, it will be good for you. I may help you to get rid of his hell. But if you make any noise, I must torture you." She shook her head and started shouting and making an attempt to her voice to go out of the window.

He grabbed her from behind and put a hard slap on her cheeks making her bleed.

"No-one is going to save you. Willingly or unwillingly, you will be fucked by me."

"No!" Using all her energy and power, she pushed him harshly causing him to jerk back. This made him hell furious.

"Till now I requested you obediently. But you tested my patience. It's time to show you the significance of rejection

Next moment, he dashed toward her angrily while she tried to move back but there was no space. Within an instant, he threw her on the bed and jumped over her.

"HELP"

He is roaming his hand over her skin and laughed like a maniac.

She inches back and joins her hands seeking mercy. "Please don't.. MICHAEL" Unconsciously, his name came out as a whisper.

The opposite person was about to kiss her when suddenly the bedroom door slammed with a barbarous thud and the person who made entry was her husband.

"Michael" She whispered to herself, her eyes became moist to see him. She never felt so happy seeing him that she is feeling right now. She rose on her feet and tried to reach him but the stranger didn't allow her.

She felt secure when she saw Michael. A jolt of security and protection ran through her body. But not once his gaze fell upon her. His entire attention is on the man who dared to touch her.

Michael saw his wife struggling into his arms, scratching her nails on that creep trying to get out of his grip. The man was grabbing and pulling her wildly to kiss on her face.

Michael gets out of control seeing the scene before his eyes. His gaze was as red as lava. He walked two long steps and pulled his wife out the creep's hold. He punched the man's face so hard, blood oozed out from his mouth and nose.

"HOW DARE YOU TOUCH MY WIFE..YOU BASTARD.."

He gave two more punches. The sudden force caused the man to fall on the floor. But Michael didn't stop. He continuously beat him, hitting him with his legs brutally. He was currently not in a state to think.

Ananya went pale watching the scene in front of her. She walked forward and grabbed him from his shoulder and made him stop.

"Stop it Michael..you are killing him" But he was not listening, his eyes were burning in rage.

"NO. I WON'T..ISKI HIMMAT KAISE HUI MERI CHINKI KO---" (How dare he touch my chinki-) He stops abruptly and Ananya looks at him with absolute bewilderment.

"Chinki?" She was puzzled. She needs to know the mystery of Chinki. But seeing his anger, she didn't have courage to ask anything. She gets fearful seeing his aggressive side. She doesn't know what he will do to her knowing her acts. By now he knows she again attempted to run away. Last time he whipped her with his hunter. What he will do now, this makes her hell afraid.

Will he punish me, torture me, beat me or do worst than that? She gulped praying with her almighty closing her eyes to save her from his wrath.

She had her eyes closed, but she could sense his approaching steps near her.

"Please don't..don't punish me..I made a terrible mistake..I shouldn't drug you..I am sorry..I am-" Her voice stuck under her throat as she felt his finger on her lips.

He was just looking into her fearful eyes. There is an unreadable expression visible in it. She is clueless about what is going on in his mind. Why is he not reacting? For quite a long time, he is only staring at her. Then he gave his jacket and covered her body with it.

"Let's go. Anup is alone" He held her hand and dragged her out.

Next morning brought several beautiful memories back in the lives of Arnav and Khushi. A small smile spread across her lips as recalled their night encounter. She tossed and wrapped her arms to enclose him. But the other side of the bed is empty. This distracted her nape. The first thing she wanted to see everyday when she woke up was her Arnavji. But when she shot her eyes open to view the love of her life, he was nowhere.

"Arnavji" Wrapping sheets close to her chest, she sits and calls him again thinking he might be in the washroom. By getting no response, she gets fearful.

Her head's getting heavy due to the effect of alcohol. She somehow managed to stand on her feet, wear her leftover clothes and ran out of the room.

The palace where they are staying is new and huge to her. She has no idea where to go. She is walking and walking, but finds no ending.

"Where are you?"

~~~

"What are you saying, Michael?" Standing near the sea chores, Arnav is talking to Michael who told him everything about last night's attempt made by Ananya.

"That lady is very cunning. Be careful. She can go to any extent to gain me back."

"Please Arnav" Michael defended Ananya.

"I know. I know. You cannot hear a word against your Chinki. But she is not that innocent Chinki you know. She transformed into a very cunning An-"

"Chinki?"

Arnav got bewildered as he turned back and saw his wife standing with a puzzled look. He shut the phone and greeted Khushi putting an artificial smile.

"You wake you, My love" He walked toward her and looked at her morning beauty with an irresistible smile.

"Who is this Chinki, Arnavji?" Khushi interrogates.

"Who? It's not more than a week before our wedding and you have already started behaving like a typical detective wife." He chuckled and opened his arm for a hug, but she is not in a mood to get diverted from the current topic.

Now-a-days he is hiding many things from her. It irked her. Experiencing the past records, she cannot take any risk. To avoid further misunderstanding, it is important to maintain transparency in their relationship.

"Don't round me and tell me the truth."

"Khushi, there is nothing."

"Oh really? Then should I have your phone?"

"There is a limit, Khushi. You want to check my phone, for what? Stop it now. I don't have any affair. That was an act which I cleared last night still you-"

"Definitely not. I know my husband is very loyal to me. But your tense face is expressing that there is something else that is bothering you. You are forgetting you cannot hide anything from me for long. I know you in and out" Khushi persisted to tell him the truth. He let out a sigh and broke the ice.

"Okay, fine. I will tell you everything."

Precap of chapter 76 (Inkitt update)

Arnav held Khushi's hand into his tight hold and reflected those unsaid words which his voice failed to express. Khushi stared into his lover boy eyes and understood the depth of his love. She reciprocated his love with the same kindness and respect he has for her. He took her into his arms and led her toward their honeymoon palace.

"Arnavji hum.." Words fail to come out as soon as she looks into his passionate eyes. She blushed and looked down. But sensing some tension within his ragged breath, she got puzzled. Walking close to him, she sat on his lap and cupped his cheeks. She wanted him to share all his problems with her and not to hold the bagage all for himself.

"The mistake we did in past, I don't want any stupid misunderstanding to come between us once again. Tell me, Arnavji. What is bothering you?"

"Ananya" He utters this name with a venom filled voice. "Michael is falling in her trap"

"What are you saying?" Khushi has no clue what is running into his mind. "Who is chinki?"

Arnav looked into her eyes softly and decided to tell her everything he knew about Michael's past before Ananya's dark shadow ruined their present.
