Hai ..

Hello ..

Happy reading

*****"**************

As soon as I entered the room:

“Pallavi, today I want to tell you something…” I felt two pairs of hands wrapped around my waist , as soon as I entered our room ..

"And not only that, my love's face was on my chest, and there were tears in her eyes.

For a minute, I panicked; I couldn't understand what had happened to her.

'What happened, mi amor?' I asked. That's when her soft lips came to my cheek, and with a deep kiss, she started doing everything...

I began to look at her in confusion. She gave a deep kiss on the other cheek, then on both eyes, and then started kissing all over my face.

This is the first time she took the initiative herself. Otherwise, she always gets shy about coming close to me. But what happened to her today? I can't understand anything...

'I am sorry, Arjun. I am really sorry. I doubted you, which is why I checked your accounts last night, and...' she stopped while saying this.”

"'And?' I asked, taking her face in my hands.

'Nothing else. I love you, and I'm sorry for doubting you,' she said, then buried her face in my chest again.

This is the right time, Arjun. Tell her the truth ,that you're the head of the Black Soul Syndicate, and you were forced to enter this dark world. Tell her the circumstances that led you here and what your purpose is. She will understand.

I thought for a moment.

'Pallavi,' I said softly, running my fingers through her hair, and she responded with a small 'hmm.'

'I'm not  just a businessman...' Just then, her phone rang, and she left me to go to the bed.

'Yes, Abrahm bhaiya, tell me,' she said , like a little girl.

“ F* ck Abrahm, i will kill you with my bare hands b*strad " i muttered under the breath..

“ Sure bhaiyya, hum ajayengey , waise aap invite bhi nahi karte na , tab bhi hum kal aa jate hai " she exclaimed and i snapped my head towards her ,

She is happy which is evident on her face , her face is serene, her eyes were twinkling, her eyebrows were dancing in sync with her lips .

“ BachGaya saala ,varna aaj mere haat sach mein mar jatha “ I said to myself while seeing her beautiful serene face ..

"She hung up the call and came back to me. By then, I had already sat on the bed. She sat next to me and rested her head on my lap.

'You were saying something, right? So, go ahead, I'm listening,' she said.

But how? How can I take away that sweet smile from her?

'What did Abrahm say?' I asked while gently running my fingers through her hair.

'Tomorrow is Raksha Bandhan, so he has arranged a small party at the Khurana mansion, and he invited us for that,' she said, which is why she is so happy.

Oh no, how could I forget that tomorrow is Raksha Bandhan? And it's the first Raksha Bandhan for both of them. Oh no, what should I do now? What should I do? We have to go to the Khurana mansion tomorrow, and if Pallavi is attacked again? No, no, do something, Arjun,' I was lost in my thoughts.

'What happened, Arjun? What are you thinking about?' Her voice snapped me out of my thoughts.

'Won't you tie Rakhi to Pratheeksh?' I asked.

'I am called Pratheeksh. He said that his college sessions have already started, so he won't get permission to go out in the middle of the semester, and family members aren't allowed on the college premises. We can only meet during visiting hours on Sundays. That's why I'll go on Sunday and tie the Rakhi,' she said, sounding a bit sad.

'It's okay, don't be sad. This time, celebrate with your adha pagal bhayya , and next year, celebrate with Pratheeksh,' I said, and she left happily.

'Hey, where are you going?' I asked as she was leaving.

'To prepare for tomorrow,' she shouted while leaving and then went away.”

"I dialled something on my phone, turned on the Bluetooth, put it in my ear, fell onto the bed, and closed my eyes. Before the call could ring twice, a man answered."

“Good morning, sir. You called directly. Is there something important?” Mr. Joseph said from the other side.

“Mr. Joseph, don’t we give a holiday for Raksha Bandhan in our institutes?” I asked.

“Sir, we do give a holiday to the day school students, but not to the hostel students. If we give them leave for one day, they won’t return for four days. That’s why we don’t give the hostel students a holiday,” Mr. Joseph, the principal of AVS Institution, replied politely.

"Then pass a circular stating that any students who go home for Raksha Bandhan must report back to the institution by 7 AM the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, they will face a one-month suspension," I said in a bored tone.

"Sorry sir, what do you mean? I don't quite understand," Mr. Joseph replied, sounding confused.

"I mean, give a holiday to all the students and faculty in the institution tomorrow," I said, losing my patience, and hung up the call.

Right away, I called Neil.

"Good evening, sir," Neil said as he answered the phone.

"Neil, there’s a party at the Khurana mansion tomorrow. Get the whole mansion decorated. I want everything, including all the paintings and photo frames, to be new. Make sure everything is changed by tomorrow morning," I said, as I let out the last strand of my patience.

I swear, my stars are really angry with me these days. My wife's Mahadev is taking revenge on me, but I am also Arjun Srivastav, stubborn and short-tempered, just like him.

"I bluntly cut the call and took a sharp, deep breath. Well, I’ve solved all the problems for today.

On one side, there's Avyash Khanna, who has been attacking stealthily. Although my team is protecting Pallavi like a shadow, as long as Mr. Khanna is alive, I won't be able to breathe easily.”

"I took a deep breath and fell asleep, drifting into yesterday's memories.”

Flashback

Author's pov

The heavy metal doors burst open as Arjun strides in, a determined look on his face. His footsteps echo through the space, followed closely by his loyal bodyguards. They move with precision, a small army prepared for battle.

They got to know about Avyash's whereabouts but they only found his trusted men David and his team , in short Avyash is one step forward from Arjun's thinking .

Arjun, seated in a chair like a king, gazed out at Avyansh Khanna's den, now filled with his own men. Neil and Vipul stood beside him, eyes fixed on David and his crew.

David, flanked by Richard, Stephen, and a handful of rough-looking men, sneered at Arjun.

"You think you can take us down?" he taunted.

Arjun smiled, his eyes glinting with amusement.

"I don't need to lift a finger," he said, nodding to Neil and Vipul.

The two bodyguards charged forward, their movements swift and deadly. Neil took down Richard with a vicious kick, while Vipul pummelled Stephen into submission. David's men tried to fight back, but black soul crew was too strong, too well-trained.

The fight was brutal, with bones cracking and flesh tearing. Arjun's men showed no mercy, leaving David's crew broken and bleeding on the floor.

As the last of David's men fell, Arjun rose from his chair, his eyes cold and hard. "Tie them to the pillar," he instructed Neil and Vipul.

The two bodyguards bound David and his men to the pillar, their screams echoing through the den. Arjun walked over to them, his smile twisted and cruel.

"You should have stayed out of my way," he said, before nodding to Neil.

Neil pulled out a lighter and set the den ablaze. The flames engulfed the room, and David's men screamed in terror as they realised they were trapped.

Arjun turned to leave, his men following close behind. As they walked away, the sound of screams and crackling flames faded into the distance.

Present

"Avyansh Khanna, you're next. You think you can hide from me? You think you can escape my wrath? I'll find you. And when I do... you'll wish you had never crossed me.

This is just the beginning. This is just the start of my reign.And you? Forget about coming close; I won't even let your shadow fall on my Pallavi, I promise you, Avyash. The day I come in front of you, you will beg for your death.”

As I was lost in my thoughts, I heard the faint sound of her bangles clinking and her anklets jingling.

They are eternal. No matter how bad my mood is, they lift my spirits. My fatigue instantly disappears, and a smile automatically appears on my face. A positive, divine vibe fills the air. Maybe I've done something really good, which is why, like a fairy in a demon's life, she has come into mine.

"She came and sat on the bed. I slowly opened my eyes while facing her.i had seen some decorative items like

A piece of silk thread or cotton thread in red and yellow, some Decorative beads, sequins, and  stones, Small decorative pieces like small artificial flowers, leaves, or embellishments , A small piece of  cloth, Glue and  fabric glue, Scissors , Needle and thread ..

“ Kya kar rahi ho wifey ?? " I enquired but it seems like she is more indulged in her work or should I say she is enjoying her work ..

“ Kal keliye rakhi banari hunn " she said while keeping the thread in a needle ..

"But why do you need to work so much? We'll go to the mall tomorrow and buy one from there," I said bluntly. Actually, I don't understand why she puts in so much effort. Why does she give so much attention to everyone? Yes, she's doing it for her brothers, but I want her attention only on me, not even on her brothers.

I lost a battle with myself, even when I was with myself, because I know my darling is different from everyone else.

"I like making handmade rakhis because when we buy one from the store, the love we put into it can be overshadowed by the money we spend. That's why I make rakhis for my brothers myself every year," she said, picking up a decorative bead.

"Okay, but why are you making so many?" I asked, confused.

"The first rakhi is for Prateeksh," she said, and I nodded in agreement.

"The second is for Abrahm bhaiyya." Okay, that's fine too.

"The third one is for Aman. He's like a brother to me, right?" she said. I smiled a little.

"And Neil bhaiya and Vipul bhaiyya," she added, picking up another decorative piece. Yes, she considers everyone her brothers.

"So we only need five, then. Why are you making so many?" I snapped at her.

"Tch, you know what? Who will tie rakhi to Adit and Anant? They don't have a sister, right? Aren't they like brothers to me too?" she said, and I felt like, no matter how hard I try, I can't be like her. She knows how to maintain relationships so well, and I can't even manage ten percent of what she does.

"Then there's Stalin bhaiyya, Nakul bhaiyya, Amzad bhaiyya..."

"Wait, wait! Are you going to tie rakhi to all the bodyguards too?" I asked in surprise.

"Yes, why not? They're protecting me, keeping me safe from all the wrong people. So, shouldn't I thank them too?" she asked innocently.

I smiled to myself a little.

"What happened?" she asked, confused.

"Nothing. I just challenged someone that I've solved all the problems for today, but they put another beautiful problem in front of me that I absolutely can't ignore," I said, complaining about her Mahadev.

"What do you mean? I don't understand," she said. Of course, how would she know? She has no idea about the ongoing tussle between me and her Mahadev.

"Nothing, let me help you a bit," I said, picking up another needle.

We both started making the rakhis together. It reminded me of my mom. She was just like this. Even with 20 servants in the house, she would make garlands for the gods with her own hands, and my wife is exactly the same.

As we continued making the rakhis, we lost track of time. After a while, Pallavi fell asleep with her head in my lap, and I continued making the rest of the rakhis.

Next morning

"I had finished my morning routine and, after getting freshened up, came into the room. I had only wrapped a towel around my torso and was drying my hair with a small towel.

Just then, my eyes fell on her as she was applying eyeliner. In a yellow colour saree with a sleeveless blouse, Her beauty shines brighter than the morning sun, wrapped in that yellow saree. The way her milky waist teases through the netted fabric is a sight that makes my heart race. She is a vision of grace, elegance, and charm, all wrapped into one. 

L

She doesn’t need to try to win me over; every glance, every smile, every movement is like a love song that only my heart can hear. Just by being herself, she makes me fall in love all over again.

Smiling, I walked over to the cupboard to get my clothes.

'Wait, wait, wait,' she said, stepping in front of me.

'I have already chosen an outfit for you,' she said, holding up a dress in front of me.

'Wifey, you know I don't wear traditional clothes, so why did you bring this for me again?' I said, pretending to be annoyed.”

"Yes, I know, but you wore it on Holi, didn't you? And you looked so good in it! That's why I chose this kurta-pyjama for you," she said, handing me the outfit.

"I wore it that day because we were going to the temple, but now we're just going to the Khurana mansion, so what's the need to wear these clothes?" I asked back.

"Don't you ever get tired of asking so many questions? Come on, at least wear something nice on the festival day.”

"So, the clothes I wear every day aren't good?" I said, teasing her. No matter what anyone says, the fun I have in annoying her can't be found in anything else.

"When did I say that the clothes you wear every day are bad? I am just saying that you look hotter in traditional clothes..." She stopped mid-sentence.

"Oh, so you do check me out, and you think I'm hot too?" I said, moving closer to her.

"I... I..." she stammered, trying to step back.

"Come on, Pallu darling, do I look hot or not?" I asked, caging her between the wall and me.

Kitne besharam insaan hai aap Arjun , hatiye , jo pehenna hai pahenijiye mujhe kya ?”

"You're so shameless, Arjun! Move aside! Wear whatever you want, why do I care?" she said, pretending to be angry, and pushed me away as she walked off.

But before she could leave, I pulled her towards me, wrapping both my arms around her back and holding her close in my embrace.

"Okay, I'll wear it, but I have one condition," I whispered near her face.

"W-what?" Our closeness made it hard for her to speak, and seeing the effect I had on her brought me a lot of joy.

"Kiss me," I said, completely lost in her charm. In response, she widened her eyes and playfully slapped me on the cheek.

"You won't get it that easily. You'll have to earn it," she said teasingly and pushed me away before walking off.

Smiling to myself, and felt a few soft petals brushed against my cheek when she was about to escape from the room but I held her in my arms from her back .

Now her soft serene back is touching my hard muscular chest , this feeling is something I can't explain words

"She's blushing and her breath is rising over just a cheek kiss. What will she do when we get to the real thing?" I thought while seeing her flushed face ..

" Arjun , leave me I have to go , I am getting late “ she barely whispered, but today I am in no mood to free her especially after seeing her mole on neck which is shining like a star in the radius of her yellow colour saree ..

" On one condition I will leave you “ I whispered on her neck and I can see those baby hair on her neck is raising bcoz of goosebumps ..

" And what was that ? “ She asked while looking at my reflection in the mirror ..

“ You know , I have always  noticed this beautiful little mole on your neck , it's like a hidden treasure “ I muttered on her shoulder gazing at that mole and rubbing that little mole with my thumb ..

“ Ohh that ?  it's nothing special “ she said while blushing tilting her head to the side ..

“ To me , everything about you is special and precious" I whispered leaning closer to her , my voice is dripping in a husky whisper ..

“ I gently brushed her hair to one side , kept my cold palm  on her bare back , revealing a delicate curve on her back to me , her breath hitched when my fingers traced the outline of her mole , sending shivers down in her spine .

“ I can't wait to take that one , May I Mi Amore “ I barely whispered in a low yet husky voice , making her breath even worse..

" Yes “ she barely whispered, while nodding her head a little .

Without wasting a second i leaned in , pressed my lips on the mole and kept a tender kiss on that mole , my lips were lingering as I can feel the warmth of her skin , moved slowly savouring the moment, gently sucked on the spot , I am trying to be gentle as much as possible but i am passionate too , her eyes were fluttered and closed , she lets out a sigh , her hands instinctively reached my hair and clutched them tightly , water from wet hair locks falling on her shoulder and shining like pearls on her slender skin ..

“ Arjun … ” she whispered breathlessly, opened my eyes and left her soft skin from my lips , pulled her more into my hugs and rested my chin on her shoulders ..

“ I always want to do this my love , i want to show you , how much I adore every part of you , i think my luck is with me today ..” I implored in her ear affectionately, in return he sucked her lower lip to control her blush which was already formed in her cheeks ..

“ You know something Arjun ? You make me feel so cherished, like I am the one who matters to you “ she said with a lot of emotions shining in her eyes ..

I turned her towards me and cupped her face in my palm and adorned her little  sweat beads which were formed due to our proximity..

“ That's bcoz you are  , pallavi . To me  , you are everywhere “ i confessed my genuine feelings to her , yes she is undoubtedly everything to me..

“ She stood on her toes and pecked on my  lips , and again stood on her feet , I must say our height difference is a magic yet deceit ..

“ With you , every moment feels like a dream Arjun “ she whispered, lowering her eyes , while playing with my gold chain , she was obsessed with playing with that chain ..

“ Then let's never wake up from this dream my love " i said while hiding her wholesome in my arms ..

“ By the way , I earned my first kiss for the day my pallu darling “  i said , while playing with her hair locks..

"She realised that I had tricked her. She looked up at me, and I gave her a small wink with a smirk.”

“ Kitne gande admi ho aap ?? Sharam nahi aati aapko khud ki biwi ke saath chala chalate huye ? “ She said and punched my stomach harshly ..

" Ahhhh.. par pyaar bhi toh tumse hi karta hun na sweetheart ? “ I replied while rubbing on my stomach where she pinched ..

" Mujhe aapse baat nahi karni hai , jayiye chalaak lomdi kahike  “ she said and pushed me with full force , this time it was really effective, i fell in bed ..

“ "Where are you going now, my love? Two kisses are still pending, and I’ll earn them by tonight," I said, resting my head in my palm, with my hand supported by my elbow.

She already left the room but my heart can sense her blushed and flushed face , which means she too likes my not so harmful trick

I chuckled to myself ..
