So you again touched her? She asked with her burning red eyes, making goosebumps erupt for THE ASR.

He looked at her unusual calmness with a tinge of fear and shivered when she enlighted him about being aware of what just happened.

You loved her.

He looked at her with his clenched jaws and pleading eyes, only with a hope to find any tinge of mercy and innocence in her.

She smiled wickedly and moving her fingers on his face seductively asked-

Must have been fun, right, Mr. Loving husband?

He felt humiliated and sad for the fact of not rejoicing the feel of loving his wife after so long.

Because right now, the only concern he was having was how the woman in front of him will be react.

He looked at her who blushed and asked-

Umm, now that you had the fun. Let me have the fun as well.

What say, Han?

He looked horrified when he heard her asking-

Should I cut her nerves this time?

It would be so beautiful to see blood oozing out of her milky white wrist.

Isn't it, Arnavjiiiiiiii?

And then before he could control the situation, he saw his Khushi loosing his consciousness and that's when he saw her cut wrist with blood oozing out with an intensity making his heart stop for a second.

No-no -no. He can't loose his only family. He saw her dropping nerves and before he could do anything, he saw her falling deep down.

Did he loose her, forever?

He was left only with her petite, lifeless frame lying in his arms.

A shrill cry left his throat and he sat on the bed with his pounding head in his hands.

A dream.

No, a nightmare, he dreads the most.

Seeing his Khushi lifeless in even the dream is killing.

He turned his left and saw his wife sleeping like a cute panda with messy hairs.

The glow after the love-making was clearly visible reflecting the joy and satisfaction.

He went closer and snuggled his life, his wife.

A helpless, lone tear made its way down from his eyes on her cheeks which he wiped and hugged his wife tightly.

He won't let her go anywhere.

Yes, he made love to her. He did that.

The plead, the pain, which her eyes reflected, made him forget every damn harshness the life is throwing at his, their way.

He made love to her thrice, like a starving man craving for food.

Yes, he was starving. Starving to shower his love on his life, his wife from whom, he can't be away.

He felt her snuggling more into him taking the warmth more and more.

The evidences of their love making proudly flaunting on her milky complexion was something he adored and today he cherished the sight.

Kissing his wife's hair, he cherished the beautiful night.

The early morning could be anything. Beautiful or devasting.

But, he won't be afraid. This union of his soul with his wife's soul has given him an ultimate strength and he knows, now, he needs to deal with the major things.

Enough of the hide and seek. Enough of this separation. Enough, he hurted his wife and himself as well.

As he declared infront of Lavanya today, he will take things in his hands now and he knows, their love isn't weak. They will make through it.

Yes, may be, he will have to sacrifice many a things in the way but isnt this what love is?

Loosing yourself completely for the person you love.

A mirth laugh left his throat.

But whom is he kidding?

Whom will he save and whom will he loose?

Anyway, its her only.

HE HAS TO PROTECT HER FROM HERSELF ONLY.

THERE WAS, IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE ONLY ONE WOMAN IN HIS LIFE.

THE WOMAN HE LOVES AND THE WOMAN, HE LOATHS.

Can destiny be this cruel?

Can the harsh past can ruin someone's future like this?

Yes, it can. He is facing it for a year now.

It not only ruined, but broke them, pierced him.

But now, he needs to take things in a new way.

Till when, he will take the accusations of being a disloyal husband?

Till when will he make himself and his wife crave for the love?

Till when, he will be this helpless in hands of Kavya?

Didn't he use to say that his and Khushi's love can surpass any evil together?

Then, how can he be so weak, all these days?

How could he let that Kavya, that hatred win over his Khushi, the love?

A new determination shone in his eyes. He won't let the early morning be a devasting one.

Not at any cost.

The early morning, tomorrow, will be beautiful. It will be a new beginning for them and that Kavya, as well.

He will face her. He will defeat her.

The only person he loaths.

With the thoughts, his eyes became droopy and slowly, he went into slumber with peace and determination in the arms of his wife.

Contentment.

This is what she feels at the moment.

Finding herself snuggled closer in the arms of the man of her life is one of the desire and today she felt that happiness, that contentment after so long.

Sleeping like a carefree teenager in her arms is the man who is the world to her.

She had never felt what actually love is, till he came into her life.

He is not only her husband but her saviour too, who protected her when she was bullied at childhood, when she was almost killed during her teenage and when she suffered accidents after their marriage.

He has always been there. Without any complain, without any annoyance.

But, then, he started ignoring her, hurting her.

But the way he loved her yesterday. It was not an act of just physical satisfaction. It was something else. It was a silent promise, it was a plead, it was an assurance.

Yes, he did accept her demand.

Yes, he did love her, he made love to her.

And it was so beautiful and surreal that it made her cry.

The way he kissed away her tears, the way he soothed her. The love, he loved her, the way he hugged her after making love to her, the way he comforted her, the way he played with her hairs.

A disloyal husband can never do that.

Yes, she trusts him. She trusts her husband.

She, now, realises, there is a reason behind his ignorance.

THERE IS A FEAR WITHIN HIM OF LOOSING HER. THIS IS WHAT SHE REALISED WHEN HE WAS LOVING HER.

She will comfort him, assure him and help him.

Together, they will come out of whatever it is.

Kissing her husband, she attempted to come out of the bed only to be pulled by her half-awake husband and she blushed at the feel of her naked front touched by his naked form.

Her eyes travelled to her gorgeous husband's dynamic front which was decorated with her love bites and nail marks, she moved her hands over them proudly and cherished her body which was too covered with the signs of his love, the numerous love bites.

She snuggled more into him, closing her eyes for a nap, because in no way, her husband is letting her out of the bed earlier today.

The bliss was visible on the couple's face till a smirk appeared on the woman's face sitting in the dark.

The game begins. She said and then her evil laugh was the only thing which echoed.

Will it crush the couple's life or they will come across it, together, strongly, completely?
