Akshu's Pov:

I woke up with a sudden, throbbing headache and couldn't remember what had happened earlier. I looked around the room, which screamed richness. The scent of masculine cologne filled the air. The room was decorated in shades of pitch black and grey, adding to its intimidating atmosphere. I was sitting on a large king-sized bed, the soft, luxurious duvet covering me. As I took in my surroundings, the memories of the previous day came flooding back, and terror gripped me. Veer would definitely kill me.

Determined to talk to him, I looked around but he wasn't in the room. I pulled back the duvet and swung my legs over the side of the bed, ready to stand, but as soon as I tried to move, a sharp ache shot through my ankle. I looked down and felt a surge of panic: my right leg was tied to the bed with a metal chain. Shock washed over me. How could he do this to me? I tugged at the chain desperately, trying to free myself, but it was no use. The chain was strong, and every pull only made the metal bite into my skin.

My heart pounded in my chest as I tried to think of a way out. I pulled harder, using all my strength, but the chain didn't budge. I looked around the room for something, anything, that could help me break free. The walls were a dark grey, and heavy black curtains covered the windows, blocking out any light. The furniture was sleek and expensive-looking, adding to the room's oppressive atmosphere. A large wardrobe stood in one corner, and a massive mirror hung on the opposite wall, reflecting my frightened face back at me.

The door to the room suddenly burst open, and Veer walked in, exuding a sense of power and control. "You woke up, baby," he said, stepping closer. His presence filled the room, making it feel even smaller and more suffocating. I instinctively stepped back, trying to run, but the chain caught me, and I almost fell. Veer caught me, his hand on my waist.

"Please, I want to go... please, Veer, please," I cried, breaking down in front of him. He held me in his arms and said, "Sweetheart, you can ask me for anything, and I'll give it to you in seconds, except you leaving me."

"I love you, Akshu. Please don't leave me," he said, his voice thick with emotion, though I couldn't ignore the fact that he had taken me here against my will.

"Just leave me, I hate you," I spat out. His expression darkened, and suddenly he pinned me to the wall, his hand around my throat. My eyes bulged, and I grasped at his hand, trying to pull it away. He wasn't squeezing too hard, but I was weak and scared.

"You are my wife," he said in a dangerous tone, "and even if we don't marry, it's fine with me. But I wanted our marriage to be memorable and official." He released me, and I gasped for air, my chest heaving.

Veer walked over to my leg and unlocked the chain with a key. The relief of the chain falling away was immediate, but fear still coursed through me. He looked at me and said, "I didn't forget your stunt. But I'm giving you one last chance. If you do this again, I promise I will kill your only best friend, Shyra. Understood?"

[Abhi be like: Haa tu Shyra ko maarega aur mai toh khada dekhta rahunga na, Sale😒]

I nodded my head in fear. "Words, baby."

"Yes... yes, I'll not do anything. Where are we?" I asked, hoping for some clarity.

"In my penthouse. Come downstairs, we need to talk," he said and left me there, feeling dumbfounded.

Soon, a maid came in with a red suit and said, "Master has asked you to wear this and come downstairs. I'll be waiting outside."

"Okay, wait for 10 minutes," I replied. I went inside the bathroom, amazed at its size—it was triple the size of my room. I quickly showered and came out. The maid was waiting for me. I followed her downstairs, feeling intimidated by the house's grandeur. The interiors were elegant but overwhelming. We reached the dining hall, and she bowed before closing the door, leaving just the two of us in the room.

I sat as far away from Veer as possible, but he said, "Sweetheart, why are you sitting there? Come here."

"No, I'm fine here," I said, my voice shaky with fear.

"Little birdie, the choice is yours: either come by yourself, or I'll make you sit on my lap," he threatened. Terrified, I reluctantly moved and sat on the chair beside him.

"As you know, because you pulled this stunt, we are getting married this week," he said, shocking me to my core.

Veer's Pov:

I saw her face; she was hell shocked, her eyes widening like saucers. I couldn't take any risks, so I needed this marriage to happen no matter what. I called my parents and told them I would marry. They were overjoyed, and so was I.

"Sweetheart, tomorrow morning, you can go shopping for the wedding and your dresses with your best friend. Remember, I warned you what I'll do if you pull another stunt like that. Hmmm..." I said, my voice firm as we started eating. I knew she would be hungry, so I had told the cooks to make her favorite food.

I could see that she was enjoying it, even if she was trying to hide her emotions. "Tomorrow, we'll go to our family place for the shagun and other rituals. Okay?" She nodded again but then realized she needed to respond verbally.

"Ji, samajh gayi," she said softly.

We finished dinner, and I escorted her back to my room. Once she was settled, I went to my study, remembering that I needed to make an important call. I had to invite someone very close to me, my brother Zayn, who was also part of the Mafia.

I dialed his number, and after a few rings, he picked up

Veer:(Happy and excited) Bhai I am getting married, and I am already telling you; I want you in my marriage.

Zayn: (Surprised) Veer yeh kab hua ? tune mujhe inform bhi nahi kiya.

(Haaye mera Zayn...dreamily looking at him🥹🥹)

Veer: Bhai, it's a long story.

Zayn: (Playfully) Apne bhai ko sab explain karna hoga. [You will have to explain your brother everything.]

Veer: (Grinning) Uske liye aapko aana hoga. Mai kuch nahi sunne wala. [For that you need to come here. I won't listen to any excuses.]

Zayn: (Sighing) Thik hai, uske liye mujhe meri schedule postpone karna padega. [Okay, I will postpone my schedules.]

Veer: Okay, aur bade papa aur mumma ko leke aana.[Okay and bring uncle and aunty with you too.]

Zayn: Woh toh abhi busy hain, par agar hua toh le aunga. [They are busy these days, but I'll try.]

Veer: Ji. [yes]

Zayn: Aur kab ki date hai shaadi ki? [ What's the date of the marriage?]

Veer: (Excitedly) Yehi hafte mein hai. [This week]

Zayn: (Astonished) Itna jaldi bhi kya hai, bhai? [Why so hurry, bro?]

Veer: Bhai, raha nahi jaa raha, tadap hi aisi hai. [I can't control myself.]

Zayn: (Curious) Kahin love ke chakar toh nahi? [Is it a case of love?]

Veer: (Smirking) Aisa hi kuch samajh lo. [Something like that]

Zayn: (Teasing) Mera bhi wohi haal hai. {He shocked me, the ZAYN ROY falling for a girl.} [My condition is same]

Veer: (Laughing) Ooho, kaun hai humari bhabhi? [Who is my Sister-in-law?]

Zayn: (Mysterious) Pehle teri shaadi nipta le, phir tujhe bhabhi se introduce karta hoon. [fFirst your marriage gets completed; I'll introduce to her.]

Veer: Haan, mujhe toh aapki shaadi mein nachna hai. {Imagining my wife with my kids dancing in the baraat.} [Yes, I will dance in your wedding.]

Zayn: (Laughing) Tu kabse nachne laga re? [From when you started dancing?]

Veer: (Teasingly) Shayad meri biwi ko dekh ke. [Maybe because of my wife.]

Zayn: (Amused) Ohh! Acha, pyaar mein pad gaya tu bhi. Chal, milte hain phir. Mai tujhe inform karta hoon kab hum nikal rahe hain. Bye. [You have fallen head over heels. Okay, lets meet soon. I'll inform about my departure. Bye.]

Veer: Bye.

After hanging up, I sat back and let out a deep breath. Having Zayn here would make things smoother. He always had my back.

Returning to my thoughts, I hoped Akshara would come around. I knew she was scared, but I believed that with time, she'd see that this was for the best. I was determined to make her mine, no matter what it took.

So, I edited this chp too. I have tried my best to make it look nice. Thankyou.
