Swara had rested her head on Sanskar's chest and was finally at peace. She forgot everything that was happening around her at the moment. Sanskar also felt as if the weight had been lifted off of him. He had tightly held his wife close to him. They were genuinely just there for each other in that moment. However, they were snapped back into reality when they heard a knock at the door.

Uttara: "Bhabi are you done? Sanskar bhai might come soon, so we should move to my room now."

Swara: "Ye..Yeah Uttara. You go, i'll come in a minute."

With that Uttara left. Sanskar jerked away from Swara realizing what he had been doing. Whats wrong with me? How could I just hug her and act like nothing had happened?

Swara felt dejected at that moment. First, Sanskar was holding her like there was no tomorrow and she was his world, but now he was cold and distant.

Swara: "Sanskar, I... I-"

Sanskar: "Leave MY room right now." He said sternly.

Swara left quietly. She didn't know what to say to him. She understood his pain now. He wanted to be with her, but her accusations were not allowing him to move on from the day she rejected him, left him all alone, and scarred his heart.

After she left, Sanskar was frustrated. He had no alcohol left either to help him forget this moment. He angrily threw this empty bottles to the ground. Now there was shattered glass everywhere, but he didn't care. It was as if the glass represented his heart's condition. He slowly came back to reality. He decided to take a shower and then head down to greet the guests that would start coming soon.

Uttara's Room

Swara and Ragini were both dressed. Swara in her royal blue anarkali with heavy earrings and Ragini in a red anarkali with diamond studs. Swara had left her hair open and on Uttara's insistence she had straightened it. Ragini on the other hand had curled her hair and kept it pinned loosely in the back. They were now adding the last minute touches to Uttara's outfit. Uttara was looking absolutely stunning in her golden and magenta lehnga. Sujata and Annapurna entered and smiled looking at the three of them together. Sujata in that moment had forgotten her anger towards Swara. Then the other women took Uttara along with them to be seated in the hall.

Now Swara and Ragini had to start their plan.

Ragini: "Swara, are you ready to trap that bastard?"

Swara: "Yes. I am. I can't let another person ruin Uttara's life after everything that happened with Rajat." She slowly remembered the past events, her memory loss, how Sanskar had stayed with her as Kissan, and their reunion afterwards. She missed her  Sanskar dearly.

Ragini: "Swara be careful and always have your mobile with you so that I can reach you whenever your in trouble. Got it?"

Swara: "Yes meri ma. Lets go now."

Main Hall

They went down before Gayatri and her family had arrived. Swara was feeling uneasy but Ragini was assuring her everything would be fine. Nikhil had come back from the Badi dressed in a pink kurta and was looking dashing. Little did everyone know, Nikhil and Uttara had started to feel a weird connection to each other, although they had never talked once. Nikhil quickly stopped himself realizing that it was Uttara's engagement today and he couldn't fall for a girl that was already taken.

Parineeta was allowed to attend the event, but she was strictly told to keep mum by Sujata. Sujata would not tolerate any nuisance on her daughter's big day. Sanskar had come down wearing a golden kurta and looked handsome. His eyes met Swara's for a brief moment, but he quickly turned away completely ignoring her presence. He was irked at seeing Nikhil next to her. Sanskar was actually pretty busy as he awaited for Harish to arrive.

Finally, Gayatri, her husband, and Chirag walked in. They acted like they owned Maheswari Mansion and had people come and greet them instead of walking over to the others. They were truly being rude, irritating both Swara and Ragini, as well as Sanskar and Annapurna.

After awhile everyone was enjoying the performances that had been set up for the night. Even Gayatri was stunned seeing the beautiful decorations and stage. She was contempt with her choice of having Ragini plan her son's wedding.

When no one noticed, Chirag slyly started walking away from the hall towards the door. Swara who had already seen him started to slowly follow him. She knew he would lead her to some proof, which she could use to break this engagement. She followed him outside the house thinking that he had not noticed her.

Meanwhile, back in the main hall, Harish had finally arrived in disguise. Sanskar greeted him and made him meet everyone from his family saying that he was an old acquaintance. However, Harish had not yet identified anyone as the women that had taken Laksh. Sanskar assured him to stay here as more guests still had to arrive.

At the same time, Ragini realized that Swara was missing. Shit, how did I just notice. Nikhil hadn't seen her either, but was sure that she might have gone to scold a worker for messing up one of the light fixtures that wasn't working. Ragini wasn't satisfied with his answer and Swara's phone wasn't reachable. Ragini looked around and realized Chirag was missing as well. They hadn't even initiated the plan but Swara and Chirag were gone, now Ragini was worried. She frantically searched the whole mansion, but to her dismay she didn't find either one of them. She decided to ask Sanskar for help. She took him to a corner to discuss the matter.

Ragini: "Sanskar, I think Swara is in trouble." She said worriedly.

Sanskar: "Why are you telling me this Ragini. You should tell your sister's new lover Nikhil na. I think your wasting your time." He said mockingly and was about to walk away when Ragini jerked him back.

Ragini: "Listen Sanskar. Just once. Stop jumping to conclusions. You best know Swara. She doesn't act without thinking. Especially if its regarding her family." Sanskar finally nodded and listened to her.

Ragini conveyed to him that she had convinced Swara that they would lure Chirag away from the party and then record him confessing his disgusting views about the Maheshwari family and Swara, so that they could stop this engagement. Sanskar was baffled, but when Ragini told him about Swara and Chirag both missing, he started to worry. What if Ragini and Swara were saying the truth, he thought.

Ragini: "I can't find Swara. Her mobile is unreachable. Chirag is missing as well. I looked everywhere inside Sanskar. She isn't anywhere and neither is he. This wasn't a part of our plan!" She said as a tear escaped from her eye.

Sanskar managed to calm her down, although he was himself not calm. He started to worry for his wife. Why did she always manage to get herself into trouble? He decided to check outside and Ragini followed him.

Outside

Swara was slowly following Chirag but started to get confused. Chirag was on his mobile, but kept walking to the alley adjacent to the mansion, which was secluded and dark. Swara hesitatingly walked behind him and confronted him. She had turned on the video recorder on her phone to capture the encounter.

Swara: "Chirag. What are you doing here?"

Chirag: "Oh, I just wanted to catch some fresh air." He said with a smirk.

Swara: "Oh ok. I... I just wanted to talk to you about your offer yesterday."

Chirag: "Finally Swaaraa. You understood after seeing the family I am marrying into, didn't you?"

Swara: Fake laughed. "Haha... yes. They are so rich."

Chirag: "I knew once you saw them you would come to me. Yesterday when I saw you in the market, I knew I had to make you mine. Gosh, everyone thinks that I am a good man, but you know what... I like to be bad." He said as he moved closer to Swara.

Swara: "Oh... really. What do you mean by bad?"

Chirag: "You know Swara, my mother knows my nature. She doesn't care about my fiancé. She only fixed my alliance here, so that we would get access to a continuous flow of money and live a luxurious life." He moved closer as Swara moved a bit back. "I was against it first, but now I won't have to work. That stupid bastard of a brother of my fiancé thought he would run an inspection on my background, but I paid off the investigator well ahead of time. I knew that would have happened." He laughed.

Swara: Acting intrigued she said, "Chirag, why would you have to pay the investigator off?"

Chirag: "Oh my darling Swara, so many questions." He held her arm, which startled her but she acted like it was nothing. "I haven't ever left Kolkata let alone India. These stupid Maheswari's think I have an established business in the UK. Haha. I haven't even got a bachelors degree. Its just, my family is good at acting."

Chirag laughed and held Swara's other hand tightly with a disgusting smirk on his face. During this duration Swara had dropped her phone so that Chirag wouldn't notice the recording going on.

Swara: "Chirag. I think we should head back. Its your engagement and everyone will be waiting." She tried to get out of his hands.

Chirag: "Whats the rush sweetie. Lets have some fun before we go in. Remember I will give you anything you want." He said as he forcefully pulled her closer and threw her dupatta down.

Swara was scared. Her dupatta had landed near her phone. She went to grab it but Chirag tightened his grip on her. He wasn't letting her go.

Swara: "Let me go Chirag! I don't want to be with you." She yelled at him.

Chirag: "Oh sweetie. I don't care about what you want. Did you fall for my charm?" Laughing he continued, "I was just luring you here to get you alone. Did you think I didn't see you following me from inside the mansion?! I just wanted to get revenge from you for the slap you gave me yesterday!"

Swara was shocked. She had played into his trap. How was she supposed to escape now? She tried to jerk her hands out of his, but was instead met with a tight slap to her face. Now Chirag was furious that she was rejecting him. He pushed her into the brick wall inside the alley. Swara's head hit the brick but he didn't care. It was dark and he knew no one could hear them. He quickly started to force himself onto Swara, while she was crying and pleading for him to stop. She was making him more furious. He smacked her again to make her shut up. Swara was feeling helpless. She started to scream for help.

Chirag laughed and said: "Baby no ones coming to save you, no one is around here at this time".

He then tried to kiss her but due to her squirming stopped. He moved down and started to bite her neck. She was crying and asking him to stop. No one was listening to her. She started to panic even more. However much she tried to push him away, he was stronger than her. Finally she mustered up enough strength to scream at the top of her lungs hoping someone would hear her: "HELPPP ME PLEAASEEE!!!"

Sanskar and Ragini were looking for her outside around the mansion when they heard the screeching plea.

Ragini: "SWARA! That was her Sanskar!" She started panicking.

Sanskar and her started running closer to where the voice came from but didn't find anything. Then finally some shadows caught Sanskar's eyes and he saw the horrifying scene taking place in the alley.
