Siddharth woke up due to sunrays falling directly on his face..
He groaned and tried to shift a bit but he could not even move
He realized that he is tied to a chair.. his hands were cuffed and legs tied.
He tried to wiggle out.. but everything in vain..
On that he had a massive headache.. the place where he was hit was paining too much.. he was already very tired due to the wedding and the long travel.. he has not slept in the last 2 nights and now this..
He felt worn out.. his throat was dry..
His entire body was paining.. maybe it was because of sitting in the same position from a long time..
He did not even know he was out for how many hours..
Everything was hazy in his head...

He remembers that the lights in Gill Mansion were not working.. so he asked Shehnaaz to come to his place.. she went to her room to get her stuff and then came back shouting his name and in a very disheveled state.. he tried going towards her but then he got hit on the back of his head... and then he saw someone injecting something to her and she fell down...
Oh no no no..
They took her as well..
Not only him but even she is in danger..

Thinking about her being in danger did not help his state.. instant anger rushed through his body..
In his anger he started wiggling with more force.. he had to get free.. now it was not only him but even her..
He started thrusting with all his force..

Hearing so much noise around her Shehnaaz shifted in her unconscious state..
She groaned and tried to move but due to her tied hands and legs she could not move.
She winced in pain and tried opening her eyes..
Her body was paining because of sitting in the same position from long time.. but she could not understand what was happening.
Her eyes were droopy and she was trying hard to come back to complete senses.
After a few attempts she could finally open her eyes properly..
Seeing her state and the place around her she started to panic... she could make out that it was definitely not her house..
Then she started getting flashbacks of yesterday night.. and now she was getting scared.. not only for her but for Siddharth as well.. she remembers him getting hit on his head.. she could not even move.. anxiety was getting into her.. she did not even realize that she had started shivering..

Hearing a groaning voice Siddharth's mind alerted him..
He knew this voice.. it was his Shehnaaz..
He could recognize her voice even in her groans..
He was relieved that atleast she was here with him.. and he was hoping that she is safe..
He wanted to speak to her but his dry throat was not letting him speak properly..
Mustering some strength he spoke...

Siddharth: Shheehh..naaz

Shehnaaz stiffened on hearing it.. it was definitely Siddharth's voice..
A wave of relief washed over her heart..

Hearing no response from her Siddharth spoke again.

Siddharth: Shehnaaz.. baby are you there?

His voice broke her trance and she immediately responded

Shehnaaz: Siddharth? Tu hai?

Siddharth was so relieved hearing her voice.. he was happy that she was responding to him.. which means she is safe..

Siddharth: baby please tell me tu theek hai

Shehnaaz's heart started beating fast.. even in this tense situation he was worried for her.. when even he is in danger as much as her..

Shehnaaz: haa Siddharth mai theek hu.. tum theek ho?

Siddharth: haa.. but mujhe yeh batao ke kal raat hua kya tha? Kuch yaad hai tujhe? Hum yaha aaye kaise?

Shehnaaz: ab mai pura bolungi par tu promise kar tu merepe gussa nahi karega

She knew she was being unreasonable but she also knew that he will not take it lightly that she was having a creepy feeling and she did not tell him..
If she told him maybe then maybe they would not be here in this situation.

Siddharth got confused.. aisa toh kya hai ke iss time bhi isko yeh sare promise sooj rahe hai..
But he knew better that she will not say anything till he promises her..

Siddharth: haa meri maa nahi gussa karunga.. ab please bata kya yaad hai tujhe.. hume kaise bhi karke yaha se nikalna hoga..

Shehnaaz took a deep breath and started narrating everything.. from the creepy feeling she got when they entered the house.. to her feeling of being watched and then the person blocking her from coming to him.

Siddharth: tu mereko pehle nahi bata sakti thi... ghadhi

Shehnaaz was about to say something but their talks were disturbed by the switching on the lights of the room.

That's when Siddharth saw her.. he did not like the way she was tied to the chair..
Her hands and legs were brutally tied and he could see her wrist skin had turned purple..
He just wanted to kill the person who had done this to her..

He was brought back from his thoughts by the opening of the door..

2 men in their late 20's entered.. Siddharth recognized one of them as the one who had injected Shehnaaz..
So they were the ones who had dared to kidnap Siddharth Shukla and his Girl.

Man 1: oh I see that tumlog uth gaye.. mujhe toh laga ke marr gaye.. hil bhi nai rahe they dono
(He said with humour)

Shehnaaz: kon ho tumlog? Aur kyu laaye ho hume yaha? Kya chahiye tumhe?

The other man smirked

Man 2: waise toh hume humare boss ne bola tha tujhe yaha laane.. par ab tujhe dekhke mera bhi interest aa raha hai.. mere sath chalegi kya?

Shehnaaz paled on his words whereas Siddharth's blood boiled.

Siddharth: abey aye machar.. mere hath kholkar yet baat bol.. sara interest nikalta hu tera.
(He yelled)

Man 1: ohh itna gussa.. kya romeo.. kya kar lega.. tere samne leke aaye isko idher.. kya kar paya tu? Ab zyada awaz karega na toh tere samne leke jaunga usko idher se.. aur fir tujhe sirf awazein sunai degi uski.. samjha na.. toh jab tak boss nai aate tu aukat mai reh agar teri bandi sahi salamat chahiye toh..

Shehnaaz teared up on his words.. he spoke like she was not here..
Siddharth saw her and fisted his hands.. they were digging their own grave by saying these words..
Once he is out of here they will regret every wrong word they said about her..

Siddharth: abey jaa.. kutta hai tu kisika.. tera boss bolega toh baithega.. tera boss bolega toh bhonkega.. tu kya kar lega.. mai Siddharth Shukla hu.. tujh jaise pillo se baat nai karta mai.. jaake tere boss ko bula.. nikal ab..

The smirks on their faces swiped off and was replaced by a frown..
Everyone knows who Siddharth Shukla is.. and he was correct.. they could not do anything without their boss's orders..
So they both scoffed and left.

Siddharth then looked at his baby

Siddharth: baby.. mai tujhe kuch nahi hone dunga okay.. tu fikar mat kar.. ab tak humari family and friends ko pata chal gaya hoga that we are missing.. jald hi woh log hume dhundh lenge.. fir mai dikhata hu inko aur inke boss ko ke kitna galat panga lia hai unhone..

Shehnaaz just nodded.. she was too shaken to react..
------------------------------------

A few more hours passed.. but still the "boss" had not made any appearance.
Only the 2 kidnappers had come twice to give them food and water..

But Siddharth being Siddharth he made them eat and drink before Shehnaaz could even touch it..
He ment every word when he said that he will not let anything happen to her..

By now he had already realized that both the men who are here have been strictly instructed that no harm should come either to Siddharth or Shehnaaz..
That is why they were abiding by all the things which Siddharth was asking them to do.

He had also figured that the reason why they have been kidnapped is not money..
Orelse till now a call to Shehnaaz's family would have been made..
The entire time he was thinking about the reason for their kidnap..
Once he gets any hint regarding it he would definitely figure the person behind it..
And when he gets to know who is behind it.. he will make that person regret messing with him and his baby
------------------------------------
It was night already.. they could see the sun setting from the little window in the room.

Shehnaaz was very tired.. physically as well as mentally...
Both her and Siddharth were here.. and the kids were alone..
She was worried sick about how are they?
Have they been crying? Have they eaten something since morning? They must be missing their parents..
Thinking about them brought tears in her eyes.. and she let them flow.. her children needed her and she could not go to them.. she was feeling helpless..

And here Siddharth was alert.. he knew that it was needed.. Shehnaaz is already not in her correct mind.. he knew she must be worried for the children.. even he was worried but his current priority was to get out of here..

Both their thoughts were interrupted by the opening of the doors..

Siddharth thought that it must be one of the kidnappers but he became shock to see the person standing in front of them

And Shehnaaz's face paled seeing the person.. now she knew the reason why both her and Siddharth were here..

Seeing the person she whispered

Shehnaaz: Himanshi...

Seeing both Siddharth and Shehnaaz in this condition a smug smile formed on her face..

Himanshi: oh hello there !!! Kaise ho tum dono?

Siddharth: what the fuck do you want?

Himanshi chuckled on his desperation..

Himanshi: abhi toh mile hai yaar hum.. kitne time baad.. thoda catch up toh karle ek dusre se...

Siddharth's blood was boiling.. again because of him Shehnaaz is in trouble.. and this is beyond his patience

Siddharth: itni desperate ho tum Himanshi maine socha nahi tha.. maine tumhe dump kar dia tha.. yaad karo.. ab kya kidnap karke apne paas rakhogi?

The smirk on her face washed away..

Himanshi: tum mere ho Siddharth... and apni chizo ko mai apne paas rakhna pasand karti hu.. chahe mujhe uske liye kuch bhi kyu na karna pade..

Siddharth: mai na hi kabhi tumhara tha aur na hi mai kabhi hounga.. toh tum sapne dekhti raho.. Siddharth hamesha se Shehnaaz ka tha aur hamesha tak Shehnaaz ka hi rahega..

Shehnaaz teared up on this.. all her past memories were fading.. this man is in so much danger.. even then he is declaring that he loves her.. how did she become so lucky?
What happened to God? How could he be so kind to her?

Himanshi: ohh Siddharth.. yeh saari baatein na movies and fictions mai achi lagti hai.. real life mai nahi.. say that you love me and come with me.. mai abhi tumhe aur isse free kar dungi.. we all will have a happy life.. come on Siddharth.. just say it and all of us shall stay happy.

Siddharth: 1 baar kahi baat samaj nai aati? Maine kaha mai Shehnaaz se pyaar karta hu..

Himanshi smirked..

Himanshi: so what if Shehnaaz hi na rahe? Usse hi khatam kar deti hu.. fir toh mera raasta saaf na..

Saying she removed a gun from her waist and pointed it in Shehnaaz's direction.

Siddharth was shocked.. no no no.. nothing can happen to her.. he needed her to live.. both the kids need her.. he cannot let anything happen to her..
But he could not even go with Himanshi..

He was brought back by the wince of his baby
Himanshi had put the gunpoint on Shehnaaz's temple

Shehnaaz: Siddharth

Before Siddharth could say anything a voice boomed

Person: we had a deal Himanshi.. you get Siddharth and I get Shehnaaz.. and I will not bear even a scratch on her.. back off she's mine.

All 3 heads snapped in the direction..
Listening to the voice Himanshi lowered her gun but Siddharth and Shehnaaz's eyes widened on the person standing in front them

A whimper left Shehnaaz's mouth

Shehnaaz: Asim!
