Do you believe in the concept of Red flag / Green flag ?

Or

Do you think that everyone has their pros and cons ?

....

The men waited for their wives to come and join them again at the breakfast table.

Such a gentlemen behavior from the men who rapes his wife, cheats on her and physically abused her and uses her weakness against her.

"I do not like your presence in my home. I want you to leave after finishing your breakfast. Don't think I am being kind to you but we did not even let a stray dog get out of our home empty stomach," Nirvana said to his maternal aunt in a most neutral tone.

Nandini's fork stopped midway and she glanced at her sister's son. His words were unkind, not like the Nirvana she knew a few years ago. Nirvana who was her most favorite Aryan.

A fake kind of smile curled on her lips as she dropped the fork on the plate and looked him eye to eye,"You are telling me to get out Nirvana but did you forget I was the only one who took care of you when you were a mere child," her eyes wavered to Ahren who was sitting on Aks's lap and she said,"No older than your son Ahren."

Nirvana visibly looked unsettled when she mentioned Ahren as her son along with the reminder of those old times.

She was right. She was kinder to him unlike many people of his past. He was and he is her favorite.

She is a childless woman, Nirvana had come to her like a new kid toy for her..she loved him dearly but soon he got to know it was nothing but a facade.

No woman can love someone else's child like she loves her own child. His aunt who loved him once dearly was bitter to his brothers once they were born.

She was fairly nice with him but with his brothers she was a complete evil. Nirvana is not only an elder brother of his brothers but he is their biggest confidant, a father figure and last but not the least their king.

Somehow he was tolerating Nandini for the sake of her old love for him but now it's getting out of hand, especially her taunts towards his daughter in laws.

"But Mrs. Rathore you are also the one who left me and my brothers in ...."

"Brother,"Aks stopped him in the middle.

Nirvana snapped his angry eyes at Aks. He does not like anyone cutting him in between.

However this time Aks was unaffected by his elder brother's furious eyes as he silently gestured towards the entrance of the dining room through his eyes.

Nirvana followed his line of vision, so did Izan and what he saw left him completely stunned.

His Clover.... She looked ethereal. Her amber locks were left free and with light earrings dangling on her ears she approached him like a fairy she was.

Without him realizing a smile curled on his lips.

His clover was adorned in a plain pink saree which accoutered her curves elegantly.

She looked...sublime. Like a wave of fresh wind. So poised, so beautiful...his Clovy.

He was about to get up and go to her but Aks's words stopped him,"Don't be so eager Izan she isn't going to evaporate in thin air. She is coming to you," he said with a smirk seeing how Izan's eyes were turning starry seeing his new bride.

Pressing his lips in a thin line at his elder brother's words Izan sat back on his chair.

The ladies joined them at the breakfast table and soon they got started with their breakfast.

Izan held Clover's hand in his from under the table and kept it on top of his thigh. Clover flinched at the sudden touch but seeing it was Izan she did not react much. He was her husband and he could do whatever with her. She was taught to believe that.

On the other hand when Zehra saw Aks was waiting for her to start his breakfast with her a thin layer of tears brimmed in her eyes which she hid as soon as they came.

How much she wished he really cared for her instead of acting.

Giving up a sigh of pain she sat on the chair beside him. She should stop expecting anything real from him. Their lives have become fake just like his love.

Reyna took Ahren from Aks and sat him on her lap and started having her breakfast. Only the sounds of spoons and forks could be heard in the big dining room.

Everyone was done with their breakfast but not Reyna. Ahren was being fussy and was not letting her eat properly. He needed more sleep and that is why he was acting so cranky.

It was just a normal mother-child moment but Nandini found a fault in that too,"Girls of today's generation cannot even handle a single kid and in our time a woman used to handle 3 to 4 kids at the same time."

Aks closed his eyes in frustration as now her taunts were going way too out of hand. He wished to kill her right there and then.

Her words were an attempt to taunt the daughter in laws of Aryans. Reyna was mostly aware of it but still for the first time her words hurt her big heart and she found tears gathering in her eyes.

She has always tried her best to be a good mom but she always ends up lacking on one thing or another. And the world never leaves a chance to point out how careless she is as a mother that too a young mother.

"He needs his nap," she murmured, adjusting her son on her lap. Zehra tried to take Ahren from her but Reyna declined, shaking her head. She wanted to show everyone that she could handle her child and was not a bad mother.

"Oh now you do know. How many times will you repeat your mistakes, Reyna? Social media is full of accusations about how bad of a mother you are. People out there think you are failing as a mother and I can see why," Nandini did not leave a chance to rub salt on Reyna's wound.

It was the truth.

People judge even on the small things.

Few months back Reyna went out alone with Ahren. Even though she was not allowed to go out without bodyguards she went alone just to relive her old life as a middle class girl but it turned out to be her biggest mistake.

She was out there in the shopping mall to enjoy some mother-child time with Ahren but somehow few media people got a hunch of it and soon they were all around the mother son duo chasing them wherever they went.

It was a nightmare for Reyna.

With all the flashing and noises Ahren was wailing loudly with fear and pain and it was like the worst punishment for Reyna. The young Queen turned into a crying mess because she could not find a way to get out of that situation.

She tried to run away from the newly gathering crowd with a crying baby in her arms but the cameras followed wherever she went.

Out of fear and panic she stumbled on her steps and was about to drop little Ahren on the ground but somehow she held him tight not letting him face any kind of pain but for her it was too late as the media recorded everything but released a small clip of her almost dropping Ahren.

Soon the clip carrying the half truth went viral and she came out to be the most hated mother and a Aryan especially in the eyes of the people who were not from Khashiq.

Reyna was facing a lot of trolling and backlashes, calling her a bad mother, careless mother, a red flag mother and what not.

If Zehra was the most loved Aryan then Reyna was the most misunderstood Aryan in the social media.

However it did not affect her as much as being called a bad mother affected her.

Nandini's words peeled her wounds and though Reyna hated it to show, her eyes filled with tears and soon the tears were shedding down her cheeks.

Leaving her breakfast half eaten she held Ahren close to her chest and pampered lots of kisses on his face, smudging his face with her tears.

She then looked at her husband who was silently looking at her.

"Sorry," she whispered through her wobbling lips. Her tears did not stop, so did the souring feeling of her heart.

She knows Nirvana does not love Ahren but whether he accepts it or not Ahren is his son and she has to assure her husband that she is not going to be a bad mother for their child.

"Sorry ? Do you think one sorry could change the fact that you are too immature to be a mother. See Nirvana this is what happens when you marry a girl so young from you.. you could have..."

Nandini's words died down in her throat as the knife thrown by Nirvana plunged into her mouth and hung there as the tip touched her throat, summoning her death nearby.

Her eyes widened out of shock more than pain. And soon a line of blood came out from both sides of her mouth.

She blinked her eyes rapidly counting her last breath as the scratching sound of a chair against the floor echoed in the pin dropped silenced room.

Within a few moments both Aks and Izan were on her side. She looked at her two nephews one by one only to find hatred in their eyes. She was the last elder alive of their family but she never did what an elder should do.

Nandini then realized what was the biggest mistake of her life.

"Goodbye aunt Nandini I hope you get to meet your sister in hell," Aks hissed menacingly, and fired the bullet on one side of her brain while Izan fired from the other side opening her brain out at the dining table for the ladies at the dining table to see.

The only elder alive in their family was dead now..killed by Aryan brothers.

The ladies of the house had their heart in their throats as they saw whatever happened in the blink of an eye. They were literally shaking as it was the first time any of them had encountered a dark and bloody scene like this.

What made it more terrifying for them was the bloody spree was created not by any criminals but by their husbands.

The three women had tears sliding down their cheeks as they gathered their courage and looked at their respective husbands. They flinched witnessing the dark look on their faces. Though they have seen the worst sides of their husbands however what they were seeing now was something more than sinful.

They looked how a murderer looks. Menacing, unkind, psychotic with that evil smile slowly curling to their lips.

The three women looked at one another, all three of them wanting nothing but to run away from there.

Zehra even stood up to run from there after not being able to withstand the side of blood and the reason of that blood being Aks whom she once thought was the kindest man in her life however before she could even raise a step Aks held her hand and pulled her to his chest much to her dismay as his shirt was carrying the tints of Nandini's blood.

"Let me go...." She begged, looking up into his deadshot eyes with tears of her own.

"You are not going anywhere," he said with his voice emotionless but words full of authority.

Clover was shaking in her place as the small sobs begged to come out of her mouth but she restrained them and held the sides edge of the dining table tightly otherwise she knew she would faint right there and then.

Suddenly a hand rested on her shoulder making her flinch. Turning her eyes she was met with a face painted with blood.

Izan.

"Hushh I am here, don't cry," he said, lovingly but his face was void of any emotions like a ghost.

That look of his was scaring more than comforting.

Her lips shivered as her face contracted more in cry. She wanted to run away from this man and his house but she knew she had nowhere to go.

At last it was Reyna who was sitting shell shocked in her place. Her tears have dried and what left was trauma that left her paralyzed in her place.

Slowly she glanced at her husband whom she claimed to be never afraid of but today when she looked at him she was more than terrified of him.

The slight smirk of his lips as he proudly watched how perfect his aim was was terrifying.

It left shivers down her spine and when his eyes met hers for a moment she found it unreal to believe that he was the same man whom she loves to hold on to in the night.

The three women were so terrified that for a long time no word came out of their mouths. Seeing their reaction the men too chose to be silent.

They never wanted to disclose this part of theirs to their wives but somehow now seemed like a perfect time.

The silence of the room was killed by the sounds of baby's clapping.

Ahren giggled cutely seeing what his Papa and uncles did. Clapping his little chubby hands he let out a noise of appreciation.

The three men, even the man who does not count him as his son, smirked at his reaction.

The Aryan Prince was not weak hearted.

The ladies came out of their shocked and scared state by Ahren's happy giggles. They were flabbergasted by his reaction. Reyna was the most stunned as for her he was nothing but the biggest piece of her heart. Her innocent son.

It was hard for her to see her child finding fun in something like this.

But alas, blood is thicker than water.

Ahren was Nirvana's son and she just saw who real Nirvana was.

Everyone, even Ahren's eyes turned to Nirvana when he stood up from his chair.

He stood like a giant tree which was touching the sky and protecting the branches and leaves which were the synonyms of his family members.

He was the patriarch of the family and today he is going to tell the new members of his family that whom they have married into were not only kings but the part of the biggest mafias existing in the world.

If the name of the kings was given to them by their lineage then the title of mafia was too awarded to them by someone very dear.

Nirvana is going to tell the women of their house the truth. They aren't going to repeat the same mistakes of their fathers.

"No matter what goes between us as a couple, always remember.....Family Comes First."

Announced Nirvana, authority dripping out of his each syllable as he ordered," Follow me to my study room. It is time to start a new phase of our story."
