Sunrise and the last hope of Akshu escaping from this place also bloomed. Just few hours to go and she will be running away from him forever, as she thinks.

The Marriage was happening in the Old Palace of Singhaniya's. It was a gift by Late. Grandfather of Veer to his grandmother as a wedding gift. Now they were celebrating the grand wedding in the epitome of love.

All the elders went early, to look out for the arrangements, as the wedding mahurat was in evening. Everybody were so excited and happy. Afterall, it was the First wedding in their family after ages. They couldn't miss out anything.

Veer was also busy with his friends. Nisha and shyra were also doing the last minute chores. They didn't want anyone to get suspicious about their plan. So, they were going with the flow.

Here, Akshu was getting panic in her room.

Akshu POV:

Everything was good, I was ready to accept my fate. But after, what I saw I can't take of my mind from that. He will kill anyone. He can hurt me also, like them. NO....NO I can't let this happen. He is forcing me I will run away from here.

I know what I have to do now. I packed all my bags. I dressed in a normal lehenga not to get too much attention from anyone. I recalled my conversation with shyra and nisha from last night.

FLASHBACK

......"Nisha and Shyra, he is dangerous. I don't want to marry him. He will kill anyone. Please save me.", I said. I couldn't control my breathing.

"Akshu, baby calm down. Please. I have a plan and we will execute tommorrow.", Nishu said all this while handing me a glass of water.

I chucked the water and listened to her intently. I glanced at shyra, who was as eager as me.

"Listen guys, me and Shyru both will act as if we haven't planned anything. And you akshu.... ", she said at last pointing towards me.

"You will be in my room, wearing a simple lehenga. Pack your belongings and take this. I have this much for now and this simcard.", she said while handing me some cash and a Sim card.

"You will escape from the backdoor, which is quite close to my room. No one can notice you. Just take a cab and after reaching the bus stop. Just go to a safest place and then call any one of us. This is our last chance, Akshu. I know it's risky, but we will help u. Don't worry.", she said grabbing my hands and softly caressing it.

I hugged her and thanked her. "Thank you, Nishu. I can't repay your kindness but whenever you will need me, I'll be there for you."

"Chhh.. Pagli, rulayegi kya...Chal soja ab. Baaki mujhpe aur shyru pe chodde.", she said and shyra hugged me last time.

"I will miss u both.", I said and hugged them.

[Their friendship🤌🏻😭😭]

FLASHBACK ENDS

As Nishu instructed, I was in her room. Just Half an hour and then I am free from him. I will start my new life. I am thinking of completing my MBA or maybe I can do a job. Yeah, I am happy a little bit. But in these last 3-4 days, his family made me feel so loved and important. The girl, who will come to their house will be so lucky.

Mr. Singhaniya, was also nice in last days, but yesterday I saw, what I was fearing. I don't want an abusive marriage.

I am thinking too much. Let's sleep akshu. I set my alarm and dozed off.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the other side of the story,

"Nishu, kya lagta hai humara plan kaam karega??", Shyra asked nishu, who was tasting the food of the stall items. [Nishu, do you think our plan will work?]

"Hmm....Hoga na plan kiska hai akhir.", nisha said stuffing more tikkis in her mouth. [Hmm....whose plan is it?]

"Tu abhi itna kyu thuss rahi hai behan??", shyra asked seeing nisha eating every item from the stall. [Why are you eating so much now?]

"Aree behan, kisko pata aaj ke hungame ke baad. Ye lajawab khana khane ko mile na mile. Tu bhi khaa chal. Aur tension mat le sab accha hoga.", nisha said encouraging shyra.

Shyra also agreed and started eating. [Oh Shyra, who knows after today's chaos. This wonderful food may or may not be available to eat. You also eat. And don't worry, everything will be fine.]

[These girls have their priorities set🤌🏻🤣😭]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tringg........Tring..................[Alarm ringing tone.]

Akshu woke abruptly, checking her watch with a sense of urgency. Quickly, she made her way to the bathroom to freshen up. Grabbing her bag, she swiftly exited the room. Her first move was to message Shyra that she was leaving, promptly removing the SIM card from her phone to avoid tracking.

Shyra, receiving the notification, promptly forwarded it to Nisha. Nisha, who had been engaged in conversation with Zayn, made a quick excuse and hurried to her room. There, she found it empty. Overcome with relief and excitement, Nisha did a little happy dance and sent a message to Shyra, acknowledging Akshu's departure.

Shyru:

Kya hua????

Me:

Plan B on 😏

Shyru:

I'm coming.Wait.

After some time, Shyra entered the room and enthusiastically high-fived Nisha.

"Now, go get dressed in this. They can come anytime. Just pretend to be Akshu," Nisha instructed, handing Shyra the wedding lehenga.

"Behan, kisine mere baare me pucha toh??" Shyra voiced her concern. [If anybody asks about me?]

"I'll say that I needed a dupatta to match my lehenga and Shyra went to buy that. Just pretend until Akshu confirms that she reached safely," Nisha assured her.

Shyra nodded and headed to the bathroom. Fifteen minutes later, she emerged.

"Shyru baby, tu toh sach me kisi apsara se kam nahi lag rhi. Chal ye bangles dal aur jewellery pehen le," Nisha admired Shyra as she helped her with the final touches. [Shyru baby, you really look no less than an apsara. Come on, wear these bangles and jewellery.]

"Done," Shyra affirmed after Nisha applied light makeup. She then carefully draped the chunni over Shyra's head, covering her face completely. The plan was set, and Shyra was ready to play her part in the crucial moments ahead.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the palace, all the preparations were meticulously completed. The grand hall was adorned with an array of exquisite flowers and sparkling lights, transforming it into a vision of bridal elegance. Every corner was meticulously decorated to create an ambiance befitting a royal wedding.

The fragrance of fresh flowers filled the air, mingling with the soft glow of fairy lights that draped elegantly from the ceilings and walls. The stage, adorned with cascading floral arrangements and twinkling candles, awaited the bride and groom.

Guests began to arrive, their voices mingling with the gentle music playing in the background, creating a harmonious atmosphere of celebration and joy.

Veer was so excited, as if he has accomplished some valuable thing. He was going to marry the love of his life. He wanted to see her first. But resisted himself.

Veer's outfit👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻

Veer sat restlessly in his room, accompanied by his siblings who were trying to lighten the mood with playful banter.

"Bhaiyya, do this pose na...," Pakhi insisted, demonstrating a pose to Veer.

"Princess, I'm tired now," Veer replied wearily, feeling drained from the continuous photoshoot.

"Bhaiyya, you should rest. You still have a lot of time to sit around," Ansh suggested, trying to reassure him.

"Hmm..." Veer muttered absentmindedly, his attention drifting to his phone.

Suddenly, his phone rang, shattering the momentary calm. He was enraged, would be an understatement. With a swift motion, he threw his phone aside and stormed out of the room, heading straight towards his car with urgency in his stride.

Flashback before the call

Nisha and Shyra were sitting in her room, when they heard a knock. Shyra covered her head and sat quietly.

Nisha went and opened the door. Abhiyansh was standing there. He looked at nisha and said, "Where is Bhabhi, we have to reach the venue. The mahurat will start soon. Come." He said and glanced behind her.

Nisha nodded and went towards Shyra. She helped her to stand and they were walking when Abhi said, "By the way, where is your other best friend."

Shyra was being happy, but she composed herself. "Wo...wo actually mera dupatta nahi hai matching ka. Toh wo gayi hai lene market." [I..I didn't have a matching dupatta, so she went to the market to bring me one.]

"Okay....mai usko leke aata hu. Address batado. Konse market gayi h??", abhi asked. He was getting suspicious. Seeing Shyra not here. [Okay...I will bring her. Tell me the address. Which market she went to?]

"Aree....wo aajayegi. Chalo ab.", Nisha said and when they were going.

"Shyra, you dropped this.", abhi said intentionally and his plan worked. Shyra was rooted at her place. Nisha's eyes widen.

"Now....now, girls would you like to tell me, or shall I call veer here??", Abhi said in his most intimidating tone.

Nisha said, "Akshu tu tension kyu le rahi hai chal. Shyra bhul gayi hogi kuch mai lelungi. Chal." She tried to cover her up. [Akshu, why are you taking tension? Shyra must have forgotten, I will take it. Let's go.]

Abhi sighed and called Zayn. Zayn came after 5 minutes. He looked towards Nisha and asked, "Sona, what's happening here. Where is Bhabhi??"

Now, Nisha couldn't lie to him. She looked down. Abhi, moved towards Shyra and removed her chunni. Shyra closed her eyes in fear.

Nisha gasped and looked towards, who was glaring at her. He held her wrists and dragged her from there. Now, it was only Abhi and Shyra in the room.

"Shyra, why you did this?? Where is Bhabhi?", abhi asked her. "Please, don't do anything to her. Let her go, Abhiyansh.", Shyra pleaded.

"I am calling Veer. He needs to know.", abhi said and dialled the number.

"Hello, sun Bhabhi ko jake dhund. Wo bhaag gayi hai.", abhi hang the call. [Hello, listen find Bhabhi. she has run away]

"Why you did this??", shyra asked thrashing her palms on his chest.

Abhi held her shoulders and said, "I know what's good for her. Veer loves her and I know him that he will hurt himself but not her."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Akshu was far away from the mansion. She saw a car coming towards her. She without a second thought asked for lift. The car stopped in front of her.

The driver opened the window and asked her, "What happened madam ji?? Do you need any help?"

Akshu thinking the man as god's messenger nodded and said, "Bhaiyya, please drop me to the nearest bus stop."

The man told her to open the door and sit inside. She sat inside the car.

But soon all her dreams shattered, when she heard his deep intimidating voice, "Going somewhere, Sweetheart???"

Her blood ran cold, when she felt his touch on her hands. She looked up to see him sitting like a king in the car.

"Tch...Tch... you know sweetheart, you again did the same mistake by running away from me.", his grip tightening as he spoke with controlled anger.

"I am so.....sorry. Please don't do anything to Shyra.", she pleaded not wanting him to her best friend and was trying to free her hands from his clutches.

"You will feel sorry.....when I will kill your best friend.", veer mocked her. He was feeling angry, but he will not hurt her.

She successfully removed her hands and Akshu sprinted desperately, but soon found herself encircled by Veer's bulky men, blocking every possible escape route. Her heart raced with fear as Veer's car screeched to a halt in front of her, and he emerged, exuding an intimidating aura.

"Where do you think you're going?" Veer's voice was low and menacing, his eyes cold and unyielding. "You have nowhere to run, sweetheart. I am your only destination now. Stop this foolishness and come with me."

Akshu trembled, her body tensing with every step Veer took towards her. "No, please," she pleaded, her voice barely a whisper of resistance.

Veer's expression hardened, and in a swift, decisive move, he lifted Akshu over his shoulder despite her struggles. She pounded on his back, her fists hitting like raindrops on a stone wall. "Let me go! You can't do this!"

Ignoring her protests, Veer placed her in the car and slammed the door shut. The air inside the car felt suffocatingly tense as he got in the driver's seat.

"Veer, please!" Akshu's voice cracked with fear and despair as she turned to face him, tears streaming down her cheeks. "I can't go back with you. Please understand."

Veer's jaw clenched, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. "You don't have a choice, Akshu," he replied sharply, his tone cutting through the air like a knife. "I won't let anyone take you away from me."

The car pulled away from the scene, leaving behind a sense of helplessness and dread in Akshu's heart. She sank back into her seat, silently praying for a miracle to set her free from the clutches of veer. Soon, They pulled the car in front of the mansion, and he dragged her to a room.

"Please!! leave me veer, I will never cross your path please!!", akshu was crying badly and trying to escape from his clutches.

But what that man said her whole being tremored "tch..tch.. that's where u are wrong my sweetheart, u came by your will in my life, but this VEERANSHU SINGHANIYA will never let his WIFE go away from him."

"Now be a good girl baby and get ready for the marriage I'm waiting for u downstairs. Hmm..." he said caressing her cheeks but not getting her reply he again asked in a harsh tone. "Reply when I ask u something AKSHU!"

She shivered under his tone and tears started pooling from her eyes and she replied in a low voice, "Ye...Yesss" satisfied with her answer veeranshu stepped back and ordered the women to ready his bride.

Akshu was crying badly, but that didn't affect anyone. They were helpless.

They made her wear the lehenga and did her makeup. She was looking stunning. Anyone would be mesmerized by her beauty and the innocence.

Akshara's lehenga and Jewelleries 👆🏻👆🏻

[Bhai mujhe bhi shaadi karni h😭😭🤌🏻 sirf kapde aur jewelleries ke liye]

Akshu was crying badly. There was no trace of Shyra, Abhi, Zayn and Nisha.

Meera aunty came and took balayein of Akshu, "Haaye, kinni soni lag rahi hai meri nu (bahu)"

"Aree baccha tu ro kyu rahi hai. Hum haina tere saath. Chal", Meera wiped Akshu's tears and took her to the wedding aisle.

VEER POV:

Panditji called for the bride. As I watched Akshu walk towards me, dressed like a goddess, my heart swelled with conflicting emotions. Her beauty, coupled with the tear-streaked face, stirred a deep sense of guilt within me. I knew I had caused her pain, yet I couldn't deny the overwhelming love and need I felt for her.

Sitting beside her during the ceremony, I couldn't help but steal glances. Each time our eyes met, I saw her tears and felt the weight of my actions. Holding her wrists gently, I wanted to assure her of my presence, to convey my commitment despite my shortcomings.

The Pandit's chants echoed around us, marking the solemnity of our union. With every glance, I silently apologized and vowed to make things right. Her tears continued to fall, and I couldn't bear to see her cry. Gripping her hands a bit tighter, I hoped she would understand the depth of my remorse.

Approaching her cautiously, I saw her flinch, a reaction born of fear and uncertainty. My voice softened as I whispered," Aap roiye mat, ye aansu aap be bilkul jachte nahi. Aapki ek muskaan hi kaafi hai humare dil ke taaro ko chedne ke liye"

[Don't cry, Akshu. These tears don't suit you at all. Your smile alone is enough to light up the stars in my heart.]

📖

Panditji, tells them to exchange garlands. Akshu stands and her head was hunged low. Veer puts the garland on her neck. Akshu was told, but she was not reaching to Veer's height. He kneels down in front of her.

"Ab varmala dal dijiye", Veer said making everyone's eyes wide in shock and surprise. Everybody knows Veeranshu Singhaniya makes his victim kneel in front of him and not the other way around.

[Seems like his wife is an exception. 😏]

Then, Veer tied the mangalsutra around Akshu's neck and applied vermillion on her hair parting, marking her as his wife. They then solemnly took the Seven Vows of Marriage, sealing their union.

As they received blessings from their family, Bhavya and Meera warmly wished them a happy married life. Meera aunty, with affection in her eyes, reassured Akshu, "My child, remember, this is not a stranger's house anymore. We are your family now. Don't hesitate to come to me whenever you need." She gently kissed Akshu's forehead, her words carrying a sense of maternal love and security.

For Akshu, who had reluctantly accepted her fate, Meera aunty's comforting words meant more than just reassurance; they offered a sense of belonging and acceptance in her new home. Despite the uncertainties and apprehensions, Meera aunty's motherly gesture provided Akshu with a glimmer of hope that she would find solace and support amidst the unfamiliarity of her new life with Veer.

As they rode silently back to the mansion, Akshu couldn't shake off the whirlwind of emotions inside her. She glanced at Veer, her new husband, sitting next to her. His gaze was distant, lost in his own thoughts. The weight of the day seemed to hang heavily between them, the sacred vows they had just taken resonating in the quiet of the car.

Finally, humare #Veeraksh❤️ ki shaadi hogyi guys🥳🥳
