Mahir's POV:

With nervous and sweaty palms I opened the closet door and the sight in front of me was enough to shake my soul...

My eyes prayed it must not be Vishakha!

It was not!!!

But the one I saw there broke my heart into a zillion pieces!!!

Bela 🥺

In the most vulnerable state !!!

Her mouth was tied with a cloth!

The dupatta covering her chest and midriff was tied to her hands caging her like handcuffs tied to a criminal 🥺 and the dupatta that Rehaan's mother covered her head with as a mark of their family's respect and a woman's virtue was tied to her legs 💔

Her hair looked like... A hurricane had struck it....Her hair mixed with sweat scattered everywhere...

A man was lying upon her ...He was probably unconscious!!! While her eyes were swollen red...she was trying her level best to hum her pain from her throat while she was still burried under him...

A bunch of her hair was painfully still in hand...

I saw a few broken pieces of beer bottle there too...

That's when I saw the man's head was bleeding which was on her shoulders...Her right shoulder and cheek had blood stains that probably oozed out of his head.

I guessed the scenario that she had probably managed to break the bottle on his head inspite of being tied like an animal...🥺

She was suffocating with this man who was in a small space who probably attempted the worst thing that could be done to a woman's virtue 😢

No wonder the dupatta which was the mark of respect was now tied against her feet!!

Rehaan was an animal! The hands that had to protect her virtue had tarnished it!!!

Her eyes met mine which automatically started pouring tears at the sight of what I saw 🥺😢Our eyes met while she closed her eyes painfully while her eyes poured fresh tears showing extreme pain!!!

I was heartbroken at the sight of this...

I definitely wanted her to stop chuckling and giggling but not at the cost of this pain that was brought to her by that bastard of a man!!!

I quickly pulled out the man who was lying on and threw him aside
..
While the sight next had frightened my soul!

Her lehenga was torn and her underskirt torn was lifted upto her thighs...Her blouse was torn ruthlessly such that her chest that had marks of teeth and nails scratches like a mad dog had attacked her....her sleeves torn rigorously...

She was in the most miserable condition of anything that I had witnessed of ever in my life...

My hands were shivering and went numb...I couldn't process anything for a few seconds..

Rubbing my face which poured tears at the state of a woman had literally broken me like a mirror!

While my brains alarmed and my concious repeated!

If this is the state of mind I am by just seeing her what is she going through 🥺

Next second I got down and pulled her skirt down to cover her thighs and legs...

I quickly picked a blanket from the bed and covered her exposed chest...

While I untied her mouth, hands and legs...

She was shivering like a leaf and I hated to see the sight of a painful Bela...

I was only used to a chirpy one🥺

She was shaking like she was given current shocks and holding the blanket clenching it tightly in her hands....

And began crying loudly like there was a funeral happening right now!!!

Indeed was!!!

Her self respect, her virtue was attacked...

But looks like the brave woman fought it hard and broke the beer bottle on his head.

I couldn't help but hug her tightly in my arms...

She burried her head in my chest and cried non stop...

The blanket started slipping down and I caressed her back only to notice...

The blouse and her undergarment of her chest was only protecting her from front...

Her blouse buttons and her undergarment of her chest were ripped off from behind and the glass pieces of the beer bottle had pricked her back and neck causing multiple bruises and oozing fresh blood from her bare back...

I pressed her on my chest while I slowly pulled out sharp glass pieces that were piercing her back...one by one...

With every piece she winced and cried in pain while blood flowing out of each wound...

She was forced on those glass pieces!!! Are these born out of a woman's womb??? Monsters??? Inhuman!!! Shame to the society...to a woman who gave birth to these swines!!!

She had 6 such bleeding wounds on her neck and back!!!

While next I covered her with the blanket..

I looked at her face and closely noticed she was probably slapped multiple times as she had imprints on her fair cheeks that hands 5 fingers printed multiple times which had probably caused her cheeks to have gone blue! A possible blood clot! Her nose was bleeding too...

Hee mouth and teeth had blood and I guessed she had probably hurt her internal mouth and lost a teeth or two...

She was crying again and again and her cries were reaching the sky...

'Mahiiiiiiiir...thank you...thank youuuu...thank youuuuu' she cried my name out repeatedly thanked me and her cries were so painful that it had reached the skies...

I was cooing her in my chest trying to calm her down swinging her on my lap like a baby hugging her tight while I myself couldn't control my tears and my body was shivering at her this painful sight...

While I heard the door open and I saw Bela's parents, Rehaan's parents, my mom, dad, Vish and Yuvi standing along with Darshan, the hotel management and security guards!!!

While Darshan approached closer Bela clenched the collar of my Sherwani and shivered and snuggled into my chest...

While Achala aunty and Vish were in a state of shock...

'Mahhh....Mahhhi...Mahhhir... help help...he is coming...he will do it again...help help help' she was burrying more and more into my chest while I was patting her back and rubbing her to coo her to calm down...

I nodded a no to Darshan to move back...
I slowly nodded Achala aunty and Vish to step up and they came to Bela while...

I softly said to Bela...

'Bela...you are safe baby...I got you...you are fine...see ...you have mumma and Vish see... turn around see' I softly told her...

Trembling in fear she turned towards her mom and sister and next second she put her arms around her mother and sister and began crying louder...such that her pain could tear the skies and begin pouring!!!

🥺

While I could see Rehaan standing behind the crowd of our family members..the raging anger inside me was unstoppable..

I ran into him and began slapping him non stop and kicking his balls and blew punches in his nose, gut, chest while Yuvi and my dad pulled me but I didn't care...I kicked on his face and the glass pieces that I pulled out of Bela's back..I picked one of them and gave him a cut on his neck!!!

He winced and cried in pain shouting aaaaahhhh..I pulled him by his hair and shouted in his ear..

'Pains right???

There were 7 such that I pulled out of her back...

She was going to be your wife...you bastard...

And you???

You were planning to get her raped???

Who do you think you are...I'll pluck your balls and feed them to cats!

You scoundrel!!! You fucking swine!!!

I'm going to kill you'

While next minute police had arrived and Darshan explained how security noticed the cameras capturing a woman carried by 5 men to a room forcefully hence they got the police and I explained the entire scenario to them...

Female officers took her along... Vish and Achala aunty followed her!!

While Yuvi and Darshan hugged me to calm my temper but I was shivering in rage!!

I was broken 💔

But Bela...

Bela was tarnished! Shattered!!!
