     Sidharth wakes up with continuous ringing of his phone. He tried to open his eyes adjusting them according to sunlight that's spilling inside room through window. He glanced at his wife who was sleeping peacefully snuggling against him. With arm around him and head on his chest. Phone calls sound not bothering at her at all

He gently pull Shehnaaz's head off his chest and took his arm underneath her before keeping her head on pillow carefully and moved to answer phone call which was Zains

"Bhai it's screwed"

First words he uttered as soon as Sidharth kept phone against his ear. He was processing things still not understanding what's he possibly talking about in 11 in morning

"What?" Sidharth's voice came out rough and raspy as he runs hand through his hair to push them behind

"Mene kaha what we discussed with dada-jaan. Bhenchod haris ne Lashari ke bande ko goli mardi shoulder pe and it has started bloody war between both castes all peace we were trying to make between is impossible now"

"Ek kaam diya tha tumhe Zain" Sidharth gritted his teeth furiously walking out of room because he knows hes going to lose his shit

"Bhai I swear I tried but they all have gone fucking insane! Lashari said to tell you stay safe because if he gets hands on any of us rasheedis he's gonna shoot them in fucking chest!"

"Like he fucking can and ask that Motherfucker Haris to answer my call right away" Sidharth demanded griping railing of balcony in tight grip

"Bhai.."

"Muh kholo apna" Sidharth bark

"Lashari shot him right there in arm he's at hospital getting treatment"

Sidharth's blood boil at thought of someone daring to kill his man. Ever since he has taken over gaddi-nasheeni there has been no bloodshed and no one has dared to touch even hair on his men's head. He was fuming that that new sardar of Lashari clan has dared to do that. These enemies snd rivalry was common in them but sidharth always wanted to keep it peaceful and he had that peaceful treaty with old leader of Lashari clan which is broken by his own men he cannot blame them but he surely is no saint to back off now. Life exchange of life

"We are killing any Lashari man we see in our sight I don't give fuck if he's 20 or 80" He ordered before cutting call. Haris his mureed was 20 year old youngster only his problem was anger issue that probably got him shot today

He walked back inside living room and made way into his room only to see Shehnaaz sitting on bed dressed in satin pyjamas which she wore last night after cleaning. Legs dangling down, griping sides of her in fists. Messy hair and scrunched up nose. She's trying to process sudden pain she felt between her legs when she jolt up from sleep forgetting activity of last night with her husband even tho she took tablet for it last night. She needs to take it again

"Subha bakhair janum are you alright?" Sidharth kept his tone soft with her burring all rage underneath. He walked up to her side and pressed his lips on het forehead before lifting her face in his hands with concern in his eyes

"I'm alright" She nodded

He pushed hair off her shoulder with one hand while caressing them softly and kept other one fixed on her cheek. She looks at him with hue of blush remembering night they have shared

"Do you need anything?" He asked running hand into her hair so softly that she was loving it. She shook her head

He let go of her face as she stands up to make her way towards washroom. He set down on edge of bed with sigh leaving his mouth. He doesn't know how to tell her that he has to go back, he can't sit here while his men are at open war. He also can't tell her this all he's sure she's not someone who will be thrilled about so much violence and blood

She will probably throw fit and won't speak to him. He needs to find way to convince her fast. Lashari has chosen fucking wrong time for bloodshed. He was finally having peaceful time with his wife first time after them being married. His hands were now inching to kill that Lashari's short tempered leader

"Hum bahar chale for breakfast?" Shehnaaz pulled her head out of washroom door to look at him with cute look

"Sure jaan get ready" He nodded smiling in her way. She smiled brightly and rushed back inside washroom

Sidharth also get changed into new pair of clothes. Sky blue button up shirt and white office pants with white Ralph Lauren sweater over. He was bucking up his silver watch on wrist when his wife walk back in room dressed in pink co-set. Hair slightly curled and let open with pinkish make up on her face. She looks so delicate and soft

"Hum boat-basin chalte hai wahan ka nashta yum hota hai!" She spoke excitedly getting her sneakers on. He pushed hands in pocket of his pants and frowned

"Tum kab gayi ho wahan?" He questioned. He knows where she use to go and all thanks to Azhar who use to notify him every single thing about her

"Mein apne university friends ke sath gayi thi ek baar university se he gayi thi subha wala class bunk krke" She giggle remembering

"Only girls right?" He asked. She rolled her eyes and stands up getting hold his hand to pull him out of room with her "Mene kuch pocha" He yanked her closer which made her collide against his chest. He locked his arm around her waist before she tries to move away

"I'm only girl in group and you know all boys shower their care and love on me" She fakes smile at him. His possessive grip on her tighten and he bring his one hand to push hair off her face

"More than me?" He asked locking eyes with her. Gosh chills she got when he gazed down into her eyes with that possessiveness in his eyes

"More than you" She replied

"Theek hai phir jao unke pass" He let go of her suddenly and continued walking towards apartment's door with grumpy expressions. She followed him behind with small smile

"Chali jau pakka?" She asked securing arm around his bicep tightly as they walked inside elevators. He hummed shoving hands in pocket of pants not looking at her "Dekh kyun nahi rahe ap meri taraf huh!" She tried to pull his face towards her but he pushed her hand away

"Mujhe kehte ho mein krti hoon gussa toh ap kya krte ho!" She murmured under her breath looking ahead

Shehnaaz looked around with smile on her lips. She looks outdoor dine in. Boat-basin is basically food street with various restaurants and cafes in line with outdoor and indoor dine in. She loves that this place is family friendly, she can see many other people with their kids having breakfast with no worry even tho it's open street with main road on other side

Shehnaaz excitedly dipped in naan in Nihari Karachi's famous dish. God she loves how it taste and melts in her mouth

She lifted her gaze to look at her husband who was skulking about thing she said earlier and won't touch his food. Just staring at her with sharp gaze. She gulped down food and rise her eyebrow on which he sighed and looked away to talk with Azhar who was standing just beside him refusing to take seat like always but today she noticed he's armed and there were few additional guards with her husband. Is she missing something?

"Sidharth why aren't you eating?" She asked who waved off Azhar and looks at her

"Tumhe kyun fikar horahi hai apne un princess treatment dene walo ki fikr karo wese bhi I am nothing to you" He spoke taking off his sunglasses and hooking them at neckline of his sweater

"Apko Jealousy horahi hai?" She teased

"Off course horahi hai biwi ho tum meri aur tumhari wo baatein itni zeher lagti hai mujhe dil krta hai khud apne hatho se mardu tumhe" He said making her laugh. He can never do that. He rolled his eyes at her laugh but he has to admit she has lively and beautiful laugh

"Haan haan jese ap dusri shaadi krsako! Sab pata hai mujhe" She smiled dipping another piece of naan and forwarding morsel towards him. He looks at it than at her before leaning forward and eating it. She gasp when he nearly bite on her finger and moved back with smirk

"Are you really a dog?" She questioned seriously. He laughed

He has killed for less when people disrespect him but what he can do she's his only love lady and wife. Azhar was in disbelief at how can his Gaddi-nasheen laugh when he's being disrespected like this. He really is whipped like every other person in their caste say

"Ek baat batau?" He looks at her. She nodded sipping water with eyes on him

"I love you." He said

She blushed looking down in her plate not answering him. He just smiled and looks away digging in his pocket to pull out packet of cigarettes and lighter. He kept his stare on her while putting cigarette between his lips and lightening it. She glanced at him

"I hate you" She smirk

"What? you love me" He asked

"Mene kaha I hate you!" She repeated

"Smjh gaya meri jaan you love me I love you too" He nodded with smile looking at her annoyed expressions

"I don't love you!" She said

"I love you too" He winked her at her

"Arghhh!"

She groans looking at him in disbelief and irritation. He chuckled lowly at her making her more annoyed

"Dou chai milegi ek pheki aur ek methi" She requested waiter to came to take their plates away. He nodded and walked away "Shaam ko hum adventure land chalenge!" She excitedly said

"Wo kya hai?" He frown blowing out cigarette's smoke

"Haina! Apko nahi pata adventure land ka! Jo Bahriatown mein hai and it's really fun meri bhut saari friends gayi hai they told me it's awesome!" She squealed in happiness just by telling

"Why don't you go there with your boys" He taunted

"Because I want to go with my husband my handsome man" She showed him cute eyes. God he couldn't help but melt she's really good at it
