Abhay went to his room where Shreya was drying her hair standing in front of the mirror. Abhay went towards her and held her waist from behind.

"Shreya, are you okay, love?" Abhay asked and hid his face in her neck.

"Yeah, I am okay." She shrugged and Abhay looked at her from the mirror.

"Hmm, then I want to inform you that Priyal and Shlok are leaving for Mewar, and I think Priyal will never come here" Abhay left her and turned. He sat on the bed and held his phone which was ringing.

He went to talk on the balcony and left Shreya to think, as he already did his work.

'Priyal, is going back but why? Is it about that cake then I should order one?' She thought and turned to Abhay who came inside the room and looked at something in his phone.

"Umm Abhay, can you order a big chocolate cake for Priyal, maybe she is upset because I ate her cake and ruined her surprise that's why she is going back."
Shreya looked at Abhay with innocence and Abhay raised his eyebrows.

"Do you really think that she is just upset because you ruined her surprise?"

"Yeah, I mean what can be another reason?"

"Hmm so you really don't have any idea what you did to her? You insulted her Shreya, she had no problem with you eating the cake even when she saw you sitting in the cold with wet hair. She even covered you with her shawl but what you did you said so many bad things to her and even threw her shawl there. I thought she was your best friend and you both can do anything for each other but I think I was wrong. I will order a cake and then you can give it to her."

Abhay completed and threw his phone on bed and went to the bathroom. It was his responsibility to make her understand about the wrong and the right things.

If the person would be anyone else other than his family members then he wouldn't give attention to it. But after so long everything is sorted now and he can't afford to mess up with his relations.

Shreya was lost in her thoughts. She got ready and went out into the living hall where she saw the servants. Then she went into the kitchen and there were also servants.

"Umm Radhika jii, where is everyone? I mean Priyal and maa sa?"

"Hukum Rani saa Thakurain is in the temple in the garden and Kunwar Rani saa is in her room" She replied and started her work.

Shreya went to the backside of the garden from the back door of the kitchen, there was a huge and beautiful temple. Shreya saw Padmini sitting in the temple with the priest and they were talking about something.

She went towards them, when they both heard the anklet sound Padmini and the priest turned and saw Shreya was standing there. They smiled towards her and she touched the priest feets.

"Aree Hukum Rani saa you should not bow down in this condition." The priest said and Shreya nodded then she turned to Padmini and the priest went inside the temple while the both ladies came out and sat on the stairs of the temple.

"Maa saa, did you talk to Priyal?" Shreya asked nervously.

"Yeah I talked to Priyal right now, she is taking her regular classes then she will go back to Mewar" Padmini said and the lines of sadness and disappointment was. Visible on her face.

"I also want to talk to her but I am nervous that she will talk with me or not?"

"She is your best friend, right? And more than anyone you know her so go and talk to her"

"Hmm I will talk to her on the dining table because I am scared that if I go to her room then she will definitely throw something on my head and will say some unholy cursing words" She said in a dramatic accent.

Padmini laughed at her statement and Shreya looked at her with wide eyes.

"You look beautiful when you laugh or even a small smile always makes you more beautiful, so why do you stay angry all the time?" She asked Padmini who was smiling till now her smile changed into a frown look.

"Hmm I know when I was not married to Thakur saa I was just like you a free bird even though you are a silent girl but I was a notorious girl but then Thakur saa entered in my life and I became responsible after getting married to him. His family and he himself was not so supportive. Your grandma was so harsh on me. She was not a good mother-in-law but they all love Abhay and Adhiraj so much."

"But the day I got to know about Adhiraj's crime I threw him out. He was only 20 years old at that time. That day I was broken and from that day they all started supporting me and they helped me to get out from this trauma and I still have no regret about throwing him out. But yesterday when I got to know about Adhiraj's death it hurted me because at last he was my son but he deserved it. But Shlok never makes me feel that I have only one son. He is a very good son Shreya. And I am happy that Priyal also accepted all of us wholeheartedly. "

"Your grandma and your grandfather were not really good as mother-in-law and father-in-law but when I lost my one son they became my mother and father.
That relation was better than every relation. Sometimes still that soul of an old and strict mother-in-law came outside from maa saa but it's okay I am happy that I came in this family. It took me at least 25 years to become a family member in this house."

After hearing Padmini's words, Shreya suddenly hugged her and wrapped her arms around Padmini's neck.

"That means in comparison to Dadi ji you're the best mother-in-law. But in starting you also behaved like an angry and strict mother-in-law, maa saa. Who is always concerned about her son's needs. Do you know how much your son trouble me, you should knock some senses in his mind after all he never listens me"

As soon as Shreya completed Padmini looked at her with narrow eyes and she looked at her innocently.

"Do you have any idea that you're complaining to your mother-in-law with her own behavior, which kind of daughter-in-law does this? And Abhay is my son but in the bedroom he is your husband so I can't say anything to him and he will not like it when anyone will say anything to him, and he not just listen to you only he never listened to anyone"

Shreya made a face and then broke the hug, Padmini smiled looking at her annoying expressions. Then they went inside to the dining room where everyone was sitting except Priyal. Padmini sat beside her husband.

"Let me serve breakfast…" Shreya said and her face became sad by not seeing Priyal there.

"No, Shreya you sit with us we will serve ourselves or the servant will serve us" Padmini said and Shreya nodded and sat beside Abhay. Then Priyal came out with a big bowl which was covered with the lid. A smile came on Shreya's lips while Priyal had no expression.

"Aree Priyal what is this??" Padmini asked when Priyal placed the bowl on the center of the table.

"Umm Maa actually I wanted to make something for Shlok, just for celebrating the first month anniversary and Shlok told me to make his favorite gajar ka halwa so I made it"

Priyal answered with politeness and ignored the topic of cake. She was serving the halma in small bowls for everyone.

Priyal still remembers how Shlok made her mood light and made her feel happy.

Flashback:-

When she went inside the room and told Shlok that she didn't want to stay here and Shlok asked her the reason she told him everything happened to her. And what did Shreya say to her.

"Ohh so you're crying because Shreya ate your cake but I would be happier if you would've made me your favorite gajar ka halwa" Shlok wiped her tears and picked her up on the bed.

Now she was in his arms and he was holding her like she was a baby. She was laying in his lap and he was holding her tightly in his arms.

"Hmm but I am serious about going to Mewar"

She hid her face in his chest. Shlok caressed her hair and kissed on them.

"Hmm but I thought she was your best friend and she is pregnant so I think it was her mood swings"

"Noooooo, I don't care about Shreya's words I just wanna go back, I enjoyed there too much with Whisky and Google"

"What?"

"Yeah our two dogs, did forget their names I told you that I am keeping their names"

"But don't you think that this names are little bit awkward"

"No, I think these names are cool, but how will you understand? Your age is getting high and you're coming in the line of senior citizens. I can even see your gray hair too"

"Ohh really I also wanna know where my gray hair is?"

"That is a secret and I can't tell it openly, you know"

"No, I don't know please elaborate me because I think this senior citizen failed to show his strength last night, so today I will not let you sleep, be prepared and then I think you can also show me my gray hair"

Priyal closed her eyes tightly when she heard Shlok's dirty talk. She knows that she started first but still she didn't expect him to be more dirty. And he even threatened her that he would make her wake up all the night she had not even recovered from the last night.

"Shut up and I am going to make halwa" She tries to distract the topic and gets up from the bed.

"Hmm but before that take your online class, and focus on your study or else you will become a senior citizen before becoming a doctor." Shlok said and went inside the bathroom.

Priyal made a crying face and threw a pillow on the side where Shlok just went and that pillow hit Shlok's face because he just came out from the bathroom to take his towel. Priyal's eyes widened when she saw Shlok's frustrated expressions. She was about to run outside but Shlok literally jumped on the bed and caught her from behind.

"I am sorry, Shlok. Please leave me, I have a class" She pleaded but Shlok didn't hear her and took her to the bed. She was lying on her back. He hold her waist and

"Nahh now just forget the class" He turned her and came upon her, he shoved his head in her neck and bite a little hard.
He even raised her saree till her knees.

"Ahhh Shlok the door is not locked yet" When Priyal saw that it was hard to stop him and he was not in a mood to stop   then she realized that the door was not locked.

Shlok's lips were still attached to her cleavage, he picked the remote from the side table and locked the door. Slowly he raised her saree more and lowered his trouser. 

"Only one round Shlok, please I am already not healed from last night." Priyal pleaded with puppy eyes.

"Depends on you if you and I will explode together then I promise I will leave you just after one round but if you will not be able to control yourself then I will not control myself. And I don't mind to celebrate our first month anniversary in this room"

He winked and over hovered her the very first thing which he did was remove her saree's pallu from her shoulder which was already messed up then he opened her blouse and bra. He was torturing her sweetly. Priyal was drowned in pleasure when Shlok sweetly sucking her nipples.

He diverted her mind and entered inside her without warning. Priyal screamed very loudly while Shlok smirked. This was the always thing which Shlok does with Priyal, firstly he gives her immense pleasure and then enters inside her suddenly.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh, Sh..Shlok p..lease slow down, it's paining"

Shlok slowed himself and Priyal again went into the pleasure state and she started running her hands in his hair. After controlling herself, they both came together. Shlok was satisfied and he didn't want to hurt her so he left her just after the first round. He picked her up in his arms and took her to the bathroom.

They took the bath together but Priyal got angry with him as it was already cold outside and Shlok made her take the second bath. First he gives her a hot bath then after sending her out he takes the bath.

Priyal got ready in a new saree and went down stairs with slow steps and made the halwa.

Flashback ends:-

Priyal almost forgot her anger or about going back to Mewar. But as soon as she saw Shreya everything came to her mind again. She served everyone and stood besides Shlok. As it was the ritual that the daughter-in-laws will eat at last. She knew that Shreya is pregnant but she is not so she didn't find it appropriate to eat with all.

"Aree Priyal, why are you standing there, come and sit besides, Shlok. I know that you don't like to eat alone so come and sit" Padmini said and Priyal thought about it once.

"No, Maa saa I will eat latter with Radhika"

"Beta, it's better to eat with family then servants right? C'mon sit and have breakfast" This time Madhav said his voice was heavy and he didn't leave anything for argument.

Priyal sat beside Shlok who behaved like he didn't know her and ate his breakfast. When Priyal feels that he is ignoring her and enjoying the gajar ka halwa. She thought to trouble him. She kept her one hand on his thighs. Shlok looked at her from the corner of his eyes and ignored it.

She slowly moved her hand on his pant zip. When Shlok realized what she was trying to do he removed her hand and glared at her. She smirked and focused on her breakfast.

Shreya's eyes were fixed on Priyal who was not looking at her and that thing was bothering her so much.

"Hmm, Priyal , the halwa is very tasty, come here beta." Madhav spoke politely and called her towards him.

First she looked at Shlok who blinked his eyes and gave her permission. She got up and went towards him. She stood beside him and he stood up from his chair.

"Take it, it's a gift from my side for both of you. Today is your first month anniversary and you guys really need this gift right now" Madhav forwarded some papers in front of Priyal.

She excitedly opened it and saw that it was the tickets of Italy and some details of that place. She looked up at Madhav who smiled lightly and said.

"It's a honeymoon package for both of you. After the marriage you both handle every situation very well but now it's time for you to spend some time with each other" Madhav kept his one hand on Priyal's head and looked at Shlok who smiled and stood up from his chair.

Madhav opened his arms for him. He only shows his affection for Shlok, it's not like he doesn't love Abhay but he knows that he doesn't like these kinds of things. Like hugging, joking and showing his emotions. So, that's why Madhav always fulfilled his wish by hugging Shlok.

He hugged him tightly and Shlok also hugged him. Everyone smiled seeing them. They knew that their bond was just so different from others. Madhav shares everything with Shlok, if he had done something wrong then it would be Shlok whom he will tell first. Madhav has no friend circle but he has his only friend, his son.

"My Nalayak son" He patted his back and they broke the hug then they looked at Abhay who had a small smile on his face.

''Abhay, will you not wish me?" Shlok asked with a puppy face.

"I don't have time to wish you every month, and you didn't wish me every month so how can you expect me to do it?" He replied arrogantly and ate the halwa.

"Okay, then don't wish him but at least forgive your father" He joined his hands in front of Abhay.

He looked at him once and then stood up from his chair. He walked towards her. Abhay held his hands and shook his head. Abhay hugged him and hid his face in his chest. Madhav's eyes get watery because for him it's been centuries since Abhay hugged him last.

Padmini hugged Shreya and Priyal from the side and she also had a smile on her face. Meanwhile, a servant comes into the dining room with a big box.

"What is this?" Shlok asked and that servant who was bowing his head said with politeness.

"Kunwar saa this a cake a delivery boy gave it and said that Hukum saa ordered it"

"Yeah keep it here please" As soon as the servant completed Shreya said excitedly.

Shreya went towards Priyal and held her ears. They both were looking at each other. Now Abhay and Madhav's eyes also focused on them.

"Sorry, Priyal I destroyed your cake and ruined your surprise and I said so many bad things, please cut this cake and forgive me yar, you're my best friend if you will ignore me then where will I go?"

Shreya said and looked at Priyal who was looking at her with narrowing her eyes.

"Nautanki (Dramatic) now please side and let me see the cake"

"That you forgave me" Shreya said excitedly and she literally jumped on her place.

"That I will decide after checking the cake"

"Ohh it's your favorite chocolate cake"

"Hmm nice, but never dare to throw my shawl again. Do you know how expensive that shawl was, bumbo?"

Shreya didn't focus on her words and hugged her tightly. A very beautiful smile crept on Priyal's face and she hugged her back.

"Now, let's cut the cake girls" Padmini said and opened the box but it was a pineapple flavored cake. When Priyal looked at it, she glared at Shreya who glared at Abhay who gulped nervously because the Shreya was glaring at him like tigress.
