Priya & Shivani decided to meet to discuss and plan the things for Ram's birthday. Priya reached the place and was waiting inside the cab for Shivani.

Priya got a call from Shivani. "Hey Shivani, where are you?"

"Hi Priya, I just reached and my car is right in front of your cab. My son is crying so I am inside the car only. If you don't mind, can you please come here?" Shivani asked.

"Oh, okay." Priya replied.

Just then she noticed Sanjay stepped out of their car and was walking towards Priya's cab.

Priya was surprised to see Sanjay.

He walked to Priya's cab with a smiling face and opened the car door for Priya.

"Hey Priya, good to see you after a long time." Sanjay hugged her briefly while Priya's body was slightly stiffened with his sudden action.

"Don't worry, my son and I are not going to hijack plans. We will get down in the next street." Sanjay was grinning at her.

"No problem." Priya replied.

"It's too hot outside. Please get inside the car quickly." Sanjay asked her to come along with him.

"Yes." Priya replied, following him to their car.

Sanjay opened the car door for Priya to get inside the car. Priya & Shivani greeted each other in the car.

Sanjay too got inside the car and sat next to Priya.

Before Priya could realize anything, Sanjay slammed the door shut.

Priya was completely shocked with this sudden move.

Sanjay and Shivani grinned while looking at each other.

"Shivani, what's wrong with you?" Priya asked, sensing something not right.

"You are doomed, Priya!" Shivani laughed evilly.

Priya tried to call Ram but Sanjay snatched her mobile and switched it off.

Priya tried to scream and come out of the car but she was silenced by Sanjay as they had injected some sedative to Priya.

Priya got unconscious soon and they have successfully taken her to the remote area according to their plan.

********

In Kapoor Industries,

Ram was in his cabin and walking back and forth nervously. He was feeling uneasy about something which he was unaware of.

Ram tried calling Priya but her mobile was not reachable and she's not even responding to his messages.

Vikram entered in his cabin at the same time and noticed Ram was not in his usual self. He was looking at his mobile waiting for the call back from Priya.

"What happened, Ram? Is everything alright?" Vikram asked.

Looking at Vikram, Ram walked towards him and said, "I don't know, Vikram, I am feeling very odd today as if something wrong is going to happen."

"Why are you feeling that way? Did you have a fight with Priya at home?" Vikram asked.

"Priya is not picking up my calls. She went to meet her friend a while ago." Ram said.

"She must be busy; she will call once she gets free." Vikram said casually.

Ram nodded even though not fully convinced.

"By the way, who is this friend?" Vikram asked.

"Don't know, yaar! Priya was adamant to plan a surprise for my birthday even though I asked her not to go out without guards." Ram was annoyed.

"Wow, she's planning for your birthday party! The interesting thing is you are already aware of that!" Vikram chuckled.

"Yeah, but I don't want any surprises." Ram said.

"Trust me, Ram, you will feel on top of the world when your wife gives you any surprises. Neha is always ahead of me in giving surprises and I love her crazy surprises too." Vikram said cheerfully.

Ram smiled faintly.

"But, why did she even tell you that she's planning a surprise?" Vikram was confused.

Ram chuckled lightly and said, "She had to tell me because I was not allowing her to go out."

"Don't restrict her every time. Neha doesn't even tell me where she goes. If I stop Neha or restrict her then she would have left me long back. In the worst cases, Neha would have killed me if I restricted her in anything. Unlike Neha, Priya is more mature and understands you and your inhibitions. Poor Priya has to tell you that she has to plan for your birthday to get permission from you!" Vikram laughed.

"Come on, Vikram. I just want her to be safe, nothing else. Even though I don't like to restrict her, I have no other option left with me. I don't want to take any chances but Priya is not able to understand that. You know about my enemies and you still think that I am just simply trying to confine her?" Ram scoffed.

"I understand but make sure you don't suffocate her with your concerns. Nothing will happen. Give her some time, she will call back once she's done with her things." Vikram said, patting on Ram's shoulder.

"Hmm." Ram nodded but still his focus was on his mobile waiting for her text or call.

Ram couldn't focus on anything so he left the office and reached home.

As the time passed, Ram was anxious when he couldn't find Priya at home as her mobile was also switched off for a long time now.

He checks with Dadi and the caretaker but they are unaware of Priya's whereabouts.

"Enough of her stubbornness. I can't handle it anymore." Ram said in anger.

"Golu, why are you screaming? Priya will come home soon, don't worry." Dadi said.

"You don't understand, Dadi. Her mobile was switched off since she left the house and there is no trace of her till now. What does she think of herself?" Ram screamed out of his lungs.

"Golu, calm down. It's not good for your health." Dadi tried to cool him down.

"How should I calm down? I don't know what's wrong with Priya these days. She became very adamant and doesn't listen to my words at all. She's more interested in spending time with her friends than her kids." Ram was chided.

Dadi made futile attempts to cool down his temper.

He was restless and worried about not finding Priya and at the same time he's angry with her for her careless behavior.

Little did he know that Priya was lying unconscious in a remote building.

Ram cursed himself for letting her go as per her wish without any guards or vehicle.

Ram's anger and restlessness are on the peak. He decided not to let her go out as per her wish after this. He's going to give her an earful when's back home.

It was turning dark, there is no sign of Priya yet.

Ram decided to go out and check for Priya by himself but no luck.

He called at Sharma house, Neha and her friends but he couldn't find her anywhere.

His anger and restlessness turned into panic as the time rolled into a few more hours.

********

Priya slowly came into a conscious state and got horrified when she found herself lying on the floor. She felt anxious seeing the unfamiliar place.

Priya got up on her feet and tried to turn the knob of the door but soon realized that she's locked inside the room.

"Who the hell locked me inside the room? Shivani, Sanjay, are you there?" Priya screamed out of her lungs while banging on the door.

Hearing no response, Priya tried to find a way to escape out of the room. Opening the window, she called for help. "Help!!! Somebody please help me."

She found no one as the building seems to be in a secluded place. Priya marched back to the door and started banging on the door again, "Please open the door."

Niharika, Siddhant, Juhi, Ashwin and Sanjay were laughing evilly outside the room hearing Priya's voice.

"Get me out of the place right now otherwise it won't be good for you." Priya yelled, hearing the laughs.

"You can do nothing, Priya." Shivani replied.

"Shivani, how dare you do this? Who are you? Why did you do this to me?" Priya asked.

"Patience, Priya. You will get to know everything soon." Shivani responded while others were enjoying the scene.

"Why did you betray me, Shivani? What do you want?" Priya screamed loudly.

"Stop screaming, Priya. Nobody will come for your help." Shivani smirked.

"You don't know my husband; he will find me wherever I am and come for me. He won't spare you guys if you try to harm me." Priya said, confidently.

Shivani and others laughed out loud.

"Forget about Ram, nobody will be able to find you. You are finished, Priya." Shivani laughed.

"Please Shivani, open the door. I will give you whatever you want but let me go. My husband and my family must be worried about me." Priya had tears in her eyes while talking about her family.

They all were seated with their drinks while enjoying Priya's vulnerable state.

Priya kept on calling for help and tried to get out of the room but she felt so helpless when she couldn't come out of the room.

Moments later, the evil gang were having their drinks when Siddhant stood up from his place.

"Where are you going, Sid?" Niharika asked her son.

"Just want to go and introduce myself to my dear Bhabhi Ji." Sid smirked.

Niharika nodded her head.

Ashwin also stood up from his seat excitedly.

"Hold on, Ashwin. You won't be able to handle her now. Let me go and cool her down first. You will also get a chance to meet her." Sid snickered.

Ashwin nodded dejectedly and sat down.

Sid turned to move towards the door while brushing his hair with his hands.

"Don't trouble her much." Niharika said.

Sid smiled and nodded at her mother before moving towards the locked room.

Hearing the door getting unlocked, Priya was alerted and a bit hopeful to get out of the place.

Sid opened the door and closed it quickly behind him as soon as he entered the room.

Priya was clueless seeing the unknown person in front of her. She was stunned seeing him closing the door behind him.

"Hello, Bhabhi, how are you?" Siddhant initiated the conversation.

Priya had a confused frown hearing Bhabhi from the stranger in front of her.

"Who are you? Why are you calling me Bhabhi?" Priya asked.

"So sad Ram bhai didn't tell you about me till now! I am Siddhant, Ram's brother, I mean step-brother." Sid smirked.

She recollected that Ram told her about his step family. She remembered that he was the reason behind her accident.

Priya got panicked when she realized that she's into a big trouble.

"Why are you getting scared? We are a family!" Said Siddhant while taking steps towards Priya.

Priya felt scared seeing Sid approaching her. She took backsteps while Sid was moving close to her.

"Please let me go. I have to go to my family. My kids are too small, I have to go back home, please." Priya pleaded while a fresh pool of tears started to stream down her cheeks.

Priya stepped back until her back hit the wall.

Sid had an evil grin on his face, seeing scared Priya.

Sid kept his palm on the wall and said, "Don't be scared. I am not doing anything to you. I know how to respect my Bhabhi after all."

"I am very scared of Ram bhai, he will not spare me if I misbehave with his wife." Sid said in a mocking tone.

Priya was getting intimidated by Siddhant due to his proximity.

She pushed him back when she was feeling uncomfortable.

Sid stumbled back and composed his balance before looking surprised at Priya.

"Wow, you are fierce, Bhabhi. Must admit that my brother's choice is really awesome!" Sid grinned.

"Just shut up and tell me why did you guys take me here? Let me tell you, Ram will destroy you if you try to harm me." Priya said, strongly.

Sid laughed out loud. "You still think you can escape from here? No one will find out that we kidnapped you." Siddhant said confidently.

"Forget about Ram bhai, there is a person who's dying to see you. Don't you want to meet that person?" Sid asked.

Priya looked at him confusedly.

"He has been desperate to meet you for a long time." Saying this Siddhant pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. "You can come inside now." Said Siddhant over the call.

Priya's heart was thumping fast and she was hoping Ram would come and save her from this hell.

The door hung open and there she found Ashwin at the entrance of the door with a wicked grin on his face.

Priya's breath got stuck finding Ashwin also to be a part of this master plan.

Ashwin played innocent in front of them all these days. In reality, he's part of this evil gang by sharing the information about them to these crooked people.

With a sinful look on his face, Ashwin started to walk towards Priya.

"I must appreciate Ashwin for his help all these days. In return, he only asked for one thing." Sid looked at Ashwin and they grinned at each other.

Priya was rooted to the spot seeing Ashwin's bad stare at her.

Ashwin scanned her from top to bottom with lustful eyes and moved closer to Priya. "You made me wait for so long, Priya. I will see who will come to save you from me." Ashwin's words scared Priya to the core.

Sweat beads formed on her body seeing Ashwin's bad gaze on her.
