Chapter 25

"S-sir. Please".

"You are not leaving the house".

He stated in affirmation as she trembled feeling tense. Her breath came out shivering as she exchanged her look from him to her mother-in-law.

"Sir. Please? Leave me. I am sorry. I-I wouldn't have done it ever. I-Im ---- Please leave me".

"But you betrayed me".

His hold tightened on her.

"B-But I didn't. I-I came back to keep the papers in your office. We did nothing".

"That doesn't matter".

Her panic grew more as now she tried to jerk her hand from his to get out of his hold but his grip is like a leech attached to the skin. She broke into a cry as tears trailed down while he looked at her adoringly. She looked back at her in-laws and spoke.

"Ma. Please help me. Ask him to leave me".

She cried and Yamini looked at her with a sharp glare. Anger surged in her veins knowing that she is the reason that they were at this stage now. Right from the marriage to the papers. Everything started with her. If she would have handed the papers to her in time before double-crossing her the situation would be exactly the opposite.

"We don't have any relationship with her. Her existence doesn't concern us. We disown her and we don't need her. You can keep her with you if that's all you want".

Aasha froze in her place as she looked at Yamini helping open in disbelief.

" M-Ma...

"You shouldn't have double-crossed us. You should have given us the papers. I'm leaving you here so that you know what mistake you did".

Saying that she took a sharp turn and began to walk out of the house. Aasha was stunned listening to her words.

Were they abounding her?

She shook her head and tried to get out of his hold. This time her struggles grew much more frantic than before as she cried more.

"Leave me. Leave me".

She looked back at the door and they disappeared. Her mouth opened in shock and she started throwing punches at him to get away from him.

"Leave me. They are leaving. They are leaving I have to go with them".

"They don't want you".

He said calmly but she was still adamant about going with them. If they left her then there is no one for her in this world. She beat his hand which was holding her again and again for which he caught both hands making it impossible for her to fight anymore. She looked up at him helplessly with her hands restricted as her beady eyes showed her anger at him. Suddenly she put her mouth on his arm and began to bite him with all her might but yet he didn't leave her. She bit him for quite a few seconds and backed away seeing him not reacting nor losing his hold on her.

"Leave me. Leave me. Let go of my hand you monster. Let me go".

She screamed twisting her hands and pulling her hands up and down trying to get out of his hold.

" They left".

Her struggles halted as she looked up at him and then back. There was no sight of them. Not even at the far end of their yard. The gate was open and they left. She hiccuped before broking into sobs trying to push him with her hands.

"LEAVE ME, YOU, MORON".

She screamed and this time he pushed her back until she was pinned to the wall and gripped her hands above her head in his one hand and the other hand caught her jaw.

"Now you are all alone with me. Imagine what fucking things I can do with you".

Her breath hitched hearing his words. Her eyes feared looking at his lustful eyes. Before she could comprehend anything his lips crash on her as he began to kiss her savagely. His tongue entered her mouth and latched on her tongue. He tried to kiss deeper and deeper and her struggles, whimpers, and cries were unaffected by him. He digs his body into hers sticking his whole on her as she tried to shrink herself into the wall to avoid his touch.

His kids grew longer cutting her oxygen supply. Her whimpers are no more about the assault but the demand for oxygen. Her eyes became droopy while he savored her with his closed eyes feeling her taste in his mouth. Her body began to limp down while his body pinned her to the wall. Her voice died down as she lost consciousness but found herself taking a desperate breath when he suddenly pulled away himself. Her eyes opened and her hands were released as they fell beside her. Her body swayed slightly but was steadied because of the fall before she fell on the ground and he immediately caught her. Turning her body properly to him he moved her hairs from her face as he saw her passed out. A content smile fell on his face as he took a satisfied breath. Leaning down he gave a deep kiss in her crook while inhaling her hair scent. Backing away he looked at her. There are no lines of worry except for teary stains. His thumb ran over her lips as he caressed that petals-like feeling. Kissing her multiple times all over her face he picked her up in his arms as her hands fell limply to her side.

Placing her on the bed he tucked her in the blanket and locked the doors. It was at night when she woke up and found herself in bed in an unfamiliar room. She sat up on the bed immediately with her memories recovered. Running to the door she pushed it only to find it was locked.

She glanced back at the window and saw it was night. Her panic grew more when it registered that it had been too long since they have left already. And she was still stuck here.

She started to beat the door loudly as she began to cry.

"Open the door please!! Open the door!!!".

She kept on knocking on the door until she was tired as she slid down the door and cried there till her asleep. She was locked in the room for the next day as well. Breakfast was kept on her side nightstand by the time she woke up. However, she didn't touch the food. And when she was sent lunch she did eat the food. It has been almost a day since she didn't eat and she hardly resisted not eating breakfast in the morning.

On the third day, her room door was opened as Ridhima entered with a pair of clothes and she placed on the bed hastily trying to not give her space to run away.

"You are expected for the brunch. Get ready soon. He wants to talk to you".

Asha was about to say something but Ridhima left her room with doors closed. She took a bath and wore her white saree and sat down on the bed with determination. She would either talk and convince him or run away from here right then and there.

The doors were once again opened and Ridhima took her to the table which was filled with various dishes. One side is nonveg and the other side is pure veg with sweets and curries filled over. Her eyes fell on him who was strangely setting the table. Not that it didn't suit him. It's just he carried charm even in doing such simple things. His eyes fell on her as he smiled and welcomed her.

Reluctantly she sat down on the chair and he again surprised her as he served her food on her plate and sat back on his. Ridhima already left the place so now it is only him and her. And he was rather being polite and smiley to her.

"Come on. Start eating. They look delicious".

He said and started to dig into his meal after two bites he looked up at her and found her not eating. Sighing he put the spoon aside and leaned back on the chair.

" Look don't make it difficult. Since you are fed well yesterday you don't get to ignore the food now. I thought you respect food"?

He questioned and he got no response as she quietly looked down uninterested with her brows furrowed.

Is she protesting?

"Fine. I will let you go if you will eat".

That got her as her eyes snapped at him with a glint of pure hope. She looked as if his- these words were much more needed than the food.

"Really"?

Her body sat straight as she asked with hope. He stared at her for the shortest moment and nodded.

"Y-y.... You aren't lying. Are you".

He shook his head saying he isn't lying and took a bite of his food.

"How can I believe you".

His jaw flexed as he chewed his food and shook his head at her.
