Chapter 21

**Secluded Mansion on the outskirts of Mumbai**

Khanna staring at his Boss "It's been awhile since you returned to this place. Are you sure this decision is wise?" Om was staring at his collection of high end ties to see what would look best for tonight "I will not hide anything from my wife Khanna. And tonight she will know "O"."

Khanna: So you are planning to bring her here?

Om: Yes.

Khanna knew that his Boss was serious this time because usually he would never bring any women to this place. A place with the highest security that not even a bird could enter without setting off an alarm. "Don't you think a high-class woman like Ms. Sharma would be afraid of this life of yours?"

Om laughs as he selected a silk black tie "Afraid? You really do need to meet the Mrs. Khanna. My woman is afraid only for me and not of anything. Have you instructed the servants to decorate the main bedroom for me?"

Khanna: Yes. And I have instructed them to leave the premises after 9 tonight so that you have complete privacy. But there is also something else I need to report to you before you head off.

Om: What is it.

Khanna: There is a chatter.

Om's eyes darken as he continue dressing by putting on silver cuff links "Go on."

Khanna: Turns out that Kali Thakur has deployed 10 men to surround the venue that you have reserved tonight. Our people have also spotted Abhay Kapoor hanging around the site also.

Om looking at the mirror as he ran his hands through his long hair and with an evil smile "seems like I was the target all this time."

Khanna: So what do you want us to do Boss. Do you want us to find another place for you tonight ?

Om: No. This place is perfect. The wife would love it. Besides instead of telling her my truth I might as well use this opportunity to show her instead.

Khanna: So what is your plan.

Om lips curved up into a sinister smile "Get a hold of the Alpha Group and tell them to each pick a man from Kali's group as a target but wait till I give the signal to act. And leave that Abhay Kapoor to me."

Om's Alpha Group were is best men within the network that knows of his Omkara Singh Oberoi identity. A group so swift and precise at eradicating their target that you would not find a single trace of them ever being at the scene of any incident. This group of his were usually responsible for the highest risks contracts that they accept but for tonight Om will make an exception. The low life men that Kali employs could have been taken out easily by Om's lowest group but for tonight he will gift his wife a great show. Kali Thakur is nothing but a puppy when compared to a lion like "O".

Putting on his black jacket and grabbing his keys "Is there anything else?"

Khanna: One more thing. Kali Thakur has been trying to find you and requesting our services.

Om turns around and smiles at Khanna: Well isn't this just perfect. Let him keep trying to find ways to contact us and when it's time I will have something special plan for him.

Khanna: Yes Boss.

Before heading out the door Om reaches into his locked drawer to pull out the one thing he hopes he doesn't have to use in front of his wife tonight because tonight he was hoping for some privacy but instead there were going to be uninvited guests. As he left Khanna could only shake his head "Seems like it will rain red tonight. It's been too boring without the Boss." He quickly texted the Alpha Group to inform them of their new tasks.

Pulling up to the Sharma Mansion in his Black luxury car Om was first greeted by Dandi.

Dandi: Good Evening Mr. Oberoi. Mr. Sharma is waiting.

Om smiles as he let Dandi lead the way. The entrance way was lit bright with a large chandelier at the center of the room where Tej was sitting casually sipping on hot tea.

When seeing Om Tej gesture him to sit.

Tej: Gauri tells me that you are taking her somewhere for dinner tonight.

Om: Yes.

Tej looks at the man full of mysterious aura "Do I need to send my men along?"

Om smiles "No."

Tej's lips curved up as he sipped on his tea "Will I expect my daughter home tonight?"

Om: If you tell me that is what you want then I will make sure she comes home.

Tej: I do not control my daughter's personal life. What I want is her well being. And Mr. Oberoi do you think you are capable to keep her safe?

Om: I think I am the only one qualified to do so.

Ever since Dandi had notified Tej of all the things that Om has done in order to protect his daughter he felt that the young man in front of him had secrets that were carefully hidden even his people were not able to find out why an Oberoi would have such skills like him. Dandi himself told Tej that the altercation between Om and Abay was something he had never seen before. Om had such power and anger that both Dandi and Ranveer was unable to stop him the only person able to was their Miss. Hearing this had put Tej's mind at ease because he truly wanted someone like Om to be there for his daughter.

Tej: Do humor Mr. Oberoi. Does your grandmother know you are here for my daughter?

Om smiles once again "Mr. Sharma I assure you that I answer to no one. The only person that's most important to me is the woman upstairs."

Tej: Then I wish you luck. My daughter is not someone who anyone can control. So I will just say this once. Even though one day she will becomes someone else's bahu but she will always be a Sharma. Do not think of caging her and clipping her wings..I wouldn't want to make things complicated.

Om: The only thing I want is her heart as for the last name be it Sharma or Oberoi I can care less.

Tej laughed out loud in delight "You young man have my blessing! A person who doesn't care about the strength of a last name is perfect for my daughter." Tej's roared laughter echoed throughout the mansion.

"Who has made my father so happy tonight?" Looking at the top of the staircase Om was spellbound. Her long hair draping down the form fitting white sequin dress made her look beautiful. With every step she took down the stairs Om's heart would pound rapidly against his chest. "This woman was his." Seeing how Om had lost all sense Tej couldn't help but laugh even louder "Seems like you have made Mr. Oberoi here speechless." Gauri slightly blushed as her father teased her. As she approach the bottom staircase Om walked over to extend his hand. Tej could not help but feel happy for his daughter because the smile on her face was something he had missed. Om led Gauri towards her father and watched her kiss her father goodnight "Don't wait up for me you should rest." As he watched the pair leave "Jhanvi I think our daughter will always be safe now."

As Om opened the door for Gauri he gently caressed her bare back and leaned in close whispering in her ear "You look amazing tonight." Gauri slowly turns her head and breathed in Om's scent "And as usual your scent is intoxicating." Om's lips curved upward just thinking about what he had in store for her tonight. While driving to the venue Om couldn't help but ask "I see that the relationship between you and your father has changed." Looking out the window to gaze at the beautiful moon "Yes. Seems like I fell victim to the saying "things are never what they really seem." But I guess it's never to late to learn." Om teases his wife "So are you now Daddy's little girl?" No longer looking out the car window Gauri turns towards a playful Om "I have always longed for being Daddy's little girl." Om could sense a bit of sadness in his wife's tone. He grabbed her hand to pull it up to his lips while one hand was managing the steering wheel "You are not allowed to thing of sad things tonight." His hot lips against her hand made her entire body heat up and the rapid beating of her heart made it hard to remain calm. She tightly gripped her small purse that held the contract trying to remind herself that she should not waver.

As they drove up to the venue Om had already been able to locate his Alpha Team. As good as they were they couldn't escape his eyes, after all it was him who had trained them. Opening the car door and reaching out to escort his wife Gauri couldn't help but feel amazed. The entire place was decorated with fairly lights with a single dining table set up for two. Gauri was enchanted at the scenery surrounding her "so beautiful." Suddenly Gauri was thrown into Om's embrace "Very beautiful." Gauri blushed even more as a pair of dark eyes came closer. His tongue so hot it made her burn with desire and as his hand grabbed the back of her neck to deepen the kiss Gauri could no longer hold back and kissed him back just as passionately. "We should eat first before getting to dessert." Gauri chuckled "You started it."

On the candlelit table was a delicious meal for two paired with glasses of her favorite red wine. "Are we celebrating?"

Om: You can say that.

Gauri's heart was feeling very heavy. "Why so secretive?"

Om: More of a surprise.

As the two finally finished their meals and finished their wine "Om I need to talk to you about our situation."

Om: What a coincidence..me too. But ladies first.

Reluctantly Gauri pulled out a piece of paper from her purse. Om's eyes turned into the darkest shade with a hint of anger "Our Contract?" Om knew the moment Gauri told him that her relationship with her father has now changed for the better he had guessed that his Wife will use that excuse to terminate their Marriage. When Gauri was about to open her mouth to talk Om had grabbed the contract and lit in on fire using the small candle that was on the table. As the two sat watching the paper burn Om saw tears in his wife's eyes. "I am glad you brought it. I also wanted to get rid of this contract that was binding us." His words were like needles pricking her heart but at the same time she was relieved that she didn't have to say them herself. "So you were thinking the same?" Om stands up to lead Gauri to an area he picked..extending his hand "Come." Gauri looked up at the man who was still calm and collected but his eyes were still cold. She let him lead her to a place where you cold see the large moon shining down onto the water "I know you like the sea breeze." His arms now wrapped around her as the two looked on. She could feel his heartbeat against her bare back "Om." His embraced tighten "Shhh..not now." Suddenly Gauri heard a loud "BANG! BANG!" Fireworks lit up the sky. Her eyes were now stinging and tears now flowing and when she turned towards Om she became speechless. On his knees with a diamond ring "Gauri. My Gauri..please do me the honor of letting me into your heart. I know everything. I know that you are afraid. I know that you are afraid for me..my well being. But you need to have faith in me. Marry me Gauri." As he stood up looking into his wife's watery eyes he put the ring on her finger as kissed it. Gauri could only look at it..her heart had won...she could no longer fight it anymore. With tears now running down Gauri locked her arms around Om and held it tight "I..I...Om..." Sobbing and trying to convey her feelings between sobs Gauri only managed to say the most important thing "Yes." Finally he had succeeded in plowing his way into her heart Om lifted her up off the ground and spun her "Gauri! MY GAURI!" Too afraid that she had made the wrong decision Gauri held onto Om even tighter but he soon pulled her grasp apart so that he could see her face. Caressing her soft skin "there is something I need to tell you about myself." Before he could continue Abhay came out of his hiding place waiting for the moment that the two at their most happiest to execute his plan a shot can be heard **BANG** Om quickly dodged the first shot.

Gauri could not believe what was happening. Everything seemed like it was happening all over again. She grabbed Om's arm "No. Don't Go. I can't have someone else die in my place." Om looks at his scared wife and cupped her face "I will show you what man your husband really is. I am willing to take a bullet for you." Om quickly pushed Gauri away as he walked towards Abhay. Reaching towards the back Om pulled out a gun and then he reached inside his jacket and pulled out the silencer. Gauri could see him twisting the silencer as he slowly walked towards Abhay. But Abhay was not going to let Om get that chance he pulled the trigger and this time it hit Om right in the chest forcing Om to take 3 steps back. Gauri's entire body shook as she saw him get shot "OM!!" But Om quickly ran towards Abhay before he had a chance to reload and swiftly kicked him to the side. Gauri heard a **Swish** sound followed by Abhay's screams as Om put a bullet in one leg. She didn't know how after getting hit in the chest that Om was still unfazed. Another **Swish** rang out as a bullet hit Abhay's other leg. Om then pressed his foot onto Abhay's chest "So you wanted to kill me tonight? Did you know that tonight was suppose to be special?!" **Swish** a bullet piercing through one arm "AHHH!!!!" The screams echoed into the night. Abhay was still laughing "AHHaha If I can't kill you with my own hands someone will...Did you think I came alone?" Gauri came running towards Om "What did he say? There are others?" Om did not like Abhay scaring his wife **SWISH** another bullet piercing the other arm "AH!!!" "Stop trying to scare my wife. And as for your backup..." Om lifted his hand and snapped his fingers and out of every dark corner was a silver masked man dragging a dead body. They dropped 10 dead bodies infront of Abhay who was now bleeding profusely "What?!! You..you!..You knew we were here all along?!" Om laughed "What ?..you think you could kill me that easily?..I know everything. I even used myself as bait to lure you." Abhay now coughing up blood "Lure me?"

Om: You see my wife here thinks she needs to protect me from people like you..and them over there...so I needed to show her that it's people like you that need to be afraid of me. **SWISH** not wanting to waste anymore time the last shot pierced through Abhay's heart. Om looked over at his wife and smiled "This is my secret." He turned to his men and instructed them "Clean up and leave no traces. I want their boss to wonder what happened. It will be more fun later on." Looking at all the masked men taking orders from Om made Gauri feel as if everything was unreal. The way he dealt with them was so quick and smooth it was hard to fathom what all just happened. Om knew that this was too much to take so he grabbed her hand "Lets Go. I will take you to a place where things will be more clear to you. A place where your husband is not Omkara but "O".
