Update as it's my birthdayyyy ••••••••••••••

"Rudra ji?"

Ishanya looked at Rudra being astonished as to why he was here...But rudra just stared at Ishanya with an unreadable expression on his face...

"What are you do.. doing here?"

Ishanya asked but rudra gave no response like he didn't heard ishanya speaking...

But, he started to come closer to her as she started to ask questions again... Ishanya tried moving backwards, but she was only able to take one step as the balcony came in contact with her body which was shaking a bit.

She touched or held the balcony corridor with her both hands still facing rudra. Rudra came closer, that there was only some inches between their bodies.

"Rud... Rudra ji, wha.. what are you doing... Please s... say so.. something"Ishanya stuttered her words as she asked him again the reason he was behaving so odly...

Rudra kept his both hands on the balcony wall just beside Ishanya 's hands, their hands brushing each other as he came close to her face...

"You should have told me"Rudra faintly whispers as ishanya frowned at his words even though the proximity was actually not helping...

"What?"She asked him wanting him to elaborate the sentence..

Rudra took a deep breath and held her left cheek in his one hand while the other slid onto her slim waist..

Ishanya gasped as his cold fingers came in contact with her bare waist..

"Ru.. Rudra ji y-"Ishanya was cut out from her words as rudra shushed her"You asked me something, i should answer that right? First listen to me"

Ishanya nodded feebly which means for him to continue,the closeness was surely making her feel butterflies in her stomach..

"I remember everything..."

"What? About wha-"

"I think i told  you to keep quite pari?"Ishanya nodded being shocked as he heard him call her 'pari'... But still she decided to keep quiet as maybe it was not the time to ask him anything cause he is telling everything... Right?

"Good, now listen, when i told that I remember about everything, I meant that I remember about Every damn thing, our childhood, our marriage... I know you're shocked, but i also know that you are not shocked beacuse we are married, you are shocked because i know everything

It's not like i forgot everything, i.. I just didn't wanted to give you stress by making you remember everything when u forgot evedything about our marriage..

But guess you already remembered everything in childhood itself"He chuckled bitterly as he saw that look of shock on Ishanya's face..

He continued,"and if you're thinking how i got to know about all this, don't give so much work to your brain pari, you'll know it when time passes..

And i know you remember everything, so don't think of lying to me..."

"I...I, i remember ev .. everything rudr.. Rudra ji.. But what to do with all that.. It.. It was just because of the situation that we married and that's why i didn't confronted to you when i remembered everything... Tha.. That mar.. Marriage do.. Don't have any va.. value" Ishanya tried her best not to stutter but his intense gaze and the fact that ahe is lying is not heloing..

"So? Is it really true that the marriage don't hold any value for you."

"Of.. Ofcourse, or orelse wh.. why would i have accepted to marry Raj ji"

"Hmm.. Your stutters and eyes are telling me the other,Ishanya Rudra Raichand"
He tells as he trapped her between his both hands now...

Ishanya looked confused which actually confused rudra too, "Rudra Raichand? Your surname is Raichand? I thought you had no surname and moreover the Raichands are the kings of--"Her talks got cut by rudra's words..

"That's not something important now, I'll say everything when the correct time comes... I just want to know now... Do. You. Love. Me. Or. Not"

Ishanya was taken off guard as his question was something she expected but still unexpected...

"Wha--what?"

"I asked princess, do you love me or not? Cause I'm seriously madly in love with you, and i know there's no going back once I know you're mine " It scared her, it scared  her so much that her already shaking body was now trembling against his... If it was not rudra's arm holding her, she would have fallen down...

"I.. I don't love you"
