"Shit!" I hissed, pulling the breaks at the red light, my eyes scanning around the area, squinting them through the window.

The rain was pounding down heavily on the van and I ran my trembling fingers through my damp hair, licking my lips slowly.

"He went to face Veer head on.We were not allowed to follow. It was Omkara's orders, there was nothing we could do."

"Are you guys crazy?! So what, you just let him walk out like that? All alone!? What if he something happens to him out there?!"

I recalled the scene from this evening and bit on my fingers, closing my eyes briefly, praying that he was going to be okay.

He shouldn't have gone out there alone.

He must have tagged someone along.

He has to. He can't just...leave me alone and run off like that.

"Damn it!" I spat again, taking off, exceeding the speed limit over a mile but I was desperate to get there on time.

Ajay and Shivaay refused to tell me the place they decided to meet up but after crying and breaking down on the floor for hours and hours and practically going crazy, they finally spilled the beans, afraid that I might have a fit or something.

They're damn right I would have.

I made a left, shivering inside my damp clothes as the thunder bellowed down on me.

My heart increased tenfold when I noticed a familiar figure walking through the empty road, covered in blood and bruises.

Without even thinking, I rushed out, running through the rain and started hitting his chest repeatedly, tears rolling down my cheeks as I struggled to catch some breath.

"Where is he?! What did you do to him?!" I screamed, punching Veer's chest continuously, harder and harder every time and growled when he grabbed both my hands, his bloodshot eyes sending me a million daggers in both anger and hatred.

For a moment, I froze, the worst possible scenario flashing through my mind and I watched Veer's lip curl into a smirk at my reaction.

My eyes widened even more and I slowly shook my head before I fought to get out of his grip again, finally letting out a cry when he didn't loosen them.

I broke down on the ground, all the while with him following my motion as well. It can't be...

"...No...no..." I whispered to myself, refusing to believe anything close to what I think could have happened.

"You wouldn't...-"

"I would."

As soon as those words came out of his filthy mouth, I slapped his cheeks so hard, it caused his head to snap to a side.

I noticed his jawline clenching in anger but I only gritted my teeth harder, more tears falling down my cheeks as I struggled to hold in the sobs.

"I will kill you myself! I swear to fucking god, I will murder you---let go of me!" I screamed out in pain when Veer started dragging me through the rain, my bare legs scraping along the rough ground the entire time.

I kicked and screamed, grabbing his hands that were still roughly gripping my hair and attempted to stand up but he was a lot stronger and faster than I was.

In a second, he dragged me to the pavement and slapped me with so much force that I found myself on to the ground again, the strong impact busting up my lips instantly.

I licked off the blood and stared at him with so much hatred and anger, ugly and uncontrollable sobs now escaping my throat as I did.

"You do as I say, or I'll make sure you end up exactly where Omkara is right now!" he bent down to my level and I noticed the bruises on his eyes and neck.

"Fuck-off." I spat, only to be slapped again, my neck hurling to my right as he did.

More tears threatened to spill and a part of me was starting to fear him again, afraid that he might hurt me.

I couldn't take the pain. I wasn't looking forward to another slap.

I couldn't take it.

He was so strong, I felt like my neck would snap into two within seconds if he slapped me with a bigger impact than the last one.

"I'm not asking you Gauri , I'm ordering you, now get the fuck up!" he yelled and I trembled under his touch as he yanked me all the way up and I found myself punching him right across the nose again, breathing heavily as I did.

"How could you...I loved him, Veer! I can't live without him! Where is he?! What did you do to him--" I cried out even more when he grabbed me shoulders, jerking me closer to his face before he shook me violently.

"Then love me instead! You doesn't need bastard like him, Gauri ! Why can't you-- "

I couldn't even hear his stupid voice now, yet alone comprehend what was spitting out of his mouth.

"No...no, I love him...I want him," my knees gave away and I fell down on the ground, my heart aching at the thought of Omkara getting hurt, or worse, murdered and dumped off somewhere.

"Veer...I want him only , so please ...please don't do this...I love him." I choked out again and looked up, clutching my dress so hard, it made my body tremble even more.

I noticed something flash in his eyes and as the rain started pouring heavily down on my face again, I was forced to look back down, crying and shaking my head stupidly.

"So it'll always be him huh," I heard his voice say faintly and gasped when a hand grabbed my neck and pulled me up above the ground effortlessly.

I choked in pain, gasping for air as Veer's grip around my neck tightened and I opened my eyes to meet him eye to eye, his hands still extending out to squeeze my throat, as if he was holding nothing heavier than a toothpick right now.

"Veer...please..." I begged and pleaded for my life, my hands gripping his tightly.

"I don't need a woman who loves someone like him. Guess I'll just have to replace you myself." I heard him say before my vision started to become blurry.

I noticed a small smirk grow on his face before he froze, his eyes widening in horror and pain before the grip on his hand loosened and I fell on the ground.

A painful scream escaped his mouth before they stopped l watched someone fall on the ground next to my own body.

Whats going on?

on eyes closed briefly and when they opened, I saw the familiar figure look down at me before I fell into unconscious.

***^^

"Gauri ,be careful." Omkara gripped my waist out of nowhere, just as I was about to fall flat on the ground.

"Im , Im almost done." I kept the last folds of clothing inside the cupboard and turned to look at Omkara , who was now settling the bed.

He was shirtless, revealing his back and my eyes roamed around the huge scar on his skin again, the memories of that day flooding back into my mind.

With a small smile, I walked over to him and ran a finger over the scar but before I could go over it whole, he turned around, swiftly, but gently grabbing my fingers and pulling me closer.

"Gauri ,You don't have to do that every time." he reminded me and I nodded before sighing.

"I know, I just--"

"You Feel bad? Pity me? Wish that you could have somehow done something about it?" he mocked, his blue eyes flickering in amusement.

"Let me finish--"

"Why?" he tangled his hands around my waist, pulling us closer together before he leaned against the nearest table.

"I-I just...I don't know what I would have done that day if you didn't make it out alive. I was so scared and--"

"Jaan," he breathed and I closed my eyes briefly, ready to take on what was coming at me.

"We promised not to talk about it. You get nightmares every night we do. I'm fine. We're both fine. He's gone now, and so is Ishana ." he reassured for the millionth time after the incident and I shook my head, my hands tangling around his neck before I played with the his long raven hair, twirling some strands between my fingers.

"I know Om ," I lowered my eyelashes.

"But you pierced his heart with the silver dagger and put him to sleep in a coffin. The coffin is right under our basement, Omkara ..."

"That's exactly why it's safe. If we have put him off somewhere else, someone might remove the dagger at some point and I am not taking that chance."

"And as for Ishana, she ran away and what if she's plotting against us to--"

"Gauri -"

"Om, What if she plans to remove the dagger? You stabbed him from the back and later removed it and stabbed him in the heart again right? But what if-"

"Gauri , you need to-"

"What if, what if there was an order for doing or stabbing him in the heart? What if-"

"Jaan please." Omkara cut me off, raising his voice this time.

"What..." my voice faded as I fiddled with my finger nervously, my gaze landing on his chest nervously.

"I'm sorry, about all of this. Everything that happened, I am truly sorry. You didn't deserve to go through any of that, Gauri . But you seriously need to stop obsessing about it, about him, about someone who is practically dead."

"Techincally he's not dea-" I stopped when Omkara gave me another disappointed look, causing me to bite down my lip before nodding, lowering my eyelashes helplessly.

"Gauri ,We need to move forward. It's been over month now. We literally just moved in together last night and I want you to at least be a little happy." he held my face and I stared into his gorgeous blue eyes.

"I am happy Om ." I said honestly.

"Good," he smiled a little and I bit down my lip before my smile broke into a grin.

"So now , Kiss me."

"What?" I laughed it off, brushing him to a side, only to be grabbed by the waist and pulled up from the ground.

I squealed when he turned around and placed me on the table he was leaning against on and blushed hard.

He pushed between my legs and placed his hands on the table before leaning closer to my lips.

I turned and kept my hands on his chest.

"Om,We still have to unpack the things."

"It can wait."

"Well ,The kiss can wait too." I said in a matter of fact tone and shivered when he brushed his lips on my jawline and along my ears.

"Oh come on," he almost complained.

"I want those beautiful lips on mine so badly." His voice grew hoarse and deep, making my knees feel weak and my hormones to go wild.

The next thing I knew, his lips were perfectly covered on mine and I gasped when he lifted me off the table, guiding us to the bed.

A moan escaped through my lips when his lips trailed down my neck and onto my cleavage, one his hands playing with the end of my shirt in a teasing manner.

My heartbeat increased when he stripped off my shirt, placing his large hand on my waist before giving them a squeeze.

My heartbeat fastened when his lips brushed against my bare stomach and up my chest, leaving hot and wet kisses everywhere.

Just as Omkara slipped off his shirt, someone knocked on our door and a heavy groan escaped through his lips before he swiftly covered my mouth.

"Om!" I muffled through his palm and watched him nuzzle under my neck, our chest pressing against each others.

I could feel his buldging area over my shorts and I blushed furiously.

"No! Don't let them in. I want you right now, all to myself." he pulled back and whispered, causing my eyes to widen.

"Guys? We know you're in there. We brought you gifts so open the door!" I heard Rudra's voice through the door, followed my Bhavya's constant whining of how I was betraying her by not letting them in.

"Om, we can't..."

"Why not?"

"Because they might get in or force their way in if they have to-"

"Then they can watch me making love to you, who cares--"

"Shameless! Shut up! You--"

"Okay chill , i was just kidding, relax Jaan . You can let them in." he broke into a grin and I rolled my eyes before getting up with him.

I slipped on Omkara's shirt and was about to get up and open the door when Omkara grabbed my hand and pulled me back again.

"But in return," he spoke softly, his hand wrapping around my waist before the other gripped around my chin.

"I want all of you to myself tonight Gauri . No more distractions." he spoke firmly and my body heated up at the thought before I wetted my lips slowly.

"Okay..." I barely choked out and stopped when his lips brushed against my ears.

"Good girl."

I almost melted at his voice and quickly pulled away, swiftly turning to open the door.

"Took you long enough." Bhavya frowned.

"What up Kulfi ?" Rudra asked.

"All this time and this is all the re arrangements you guys could do? I mean, if you wanted to have some s3x you could've just said so, not--"

"What this dumbfuck is trying to say is, do you need any help?" Rudra cut Ajay off and I laughed a little before nodding.

"Let's go buy the cupboard." Rudra looked at Omkara and I watched Omkara nod before turning his eyes back at me.

"I'll see you tonight then, don't forget Jaan" he gave me a quick kiss on the forehead and left, making my heart race faster than ever.

I can't believe it finally happened.

Omkara and I finally moved in together.
