Everyone was celebrating Navratri and the mansion was decorated beautifully by Veer and his brothers according to my taste. I was soo confused when Veer confessed that he saved a little girl from plane crash and I realized that he is the reason I'm alive.
Eventhough I'm the one destined to kill him.

I have cursed Veer a lot since the start of our marriage, I have hated him with all my being. I have always seen him as a playboy, who gets everything by hook or crook. I thought he married me because he had attraction for my beauty or body but after our marriage, he never touched me inappropriately. On the other hand I felt safe and secure with his touch. Our first meeting gave me a bad impression of him when he insulted my friend Noor in front of her family and broke her wedding, I thought he is just a spoilt son of a wealthy father but he proved me wrong when he saved Meera di from Daksh, when he was trying to misbehave with her. Today I saw another side of him when he revealed his reality in front of me that he is an eagle, which I already knew but knowing the truth from him made me feel special. It felt like he trusts me with his life and I suddenly felt the burden on me if I was worthy his trust, care or love. Somewhere in my heart, there is a soft corner for him.

Everyone was celebrating and dancing, I saw Mayuri going out and I started following her. We reached a basement, she entered and I followed her. She turned and smirked and it seemed that she was expecting me there.

Mayuri: Welcome Aadi-naagin! I was expecting you.
Bani:What do you want?
Mayuri: Your death!(smirking)
Bani: You dream way too much! I didn't knew that peacocks were soo delusional.
Mayuri: However, this time this dream is going to turn reality.
Bani: I don't want to harm you but if you attack me then I will attack you, and you know very well that I'm more powerful than you.
Mayuri: We will see who is getting defeated this time.

Mayuri took out a knife from her dress and tried to attack me, but before she could succeed I took my real form and held her tightly with my tail. I pulled her towards myself and tried to restrain her but she made a deep cut on my arm. Then I had no choice but to bite her, my venom was soo powerful that she couldn't handle it and she succumbed to death but before dying she told me to save Veer. It was very unusual that she give me a hint but then I realized that everyone was outside and Veer was missing.

I just ran inside and saw an imposter who took my face was going to attack Veeranshu, I pushed the imposter and he fell near the flower vase which hit his head and he turned into his real self. I was shocked seeing Jai, he was attacking Veer even though Veer never harmed him. I turned my attention to Veer and saw his chest was bleeding where Jai attacked him and Veer was watching me keenly like he is seeing me after ages.

Veer: I remembered everything! Satyug, our story and yours and mine death!
Bani:I... I don't know what to say!
Jai: What the hell are you doing Bani? I was literally going to kill him but you spoilt my plan by saving him.
Bani:How could you Jai? He didn't attack you and why you took my face?
Jai: Well this love-struck eagle will never attack you and I can't wait until he attacks you. Because I'm sure he will not let you leave ever. I won't be able to marry you if he doesn't leave you.
Bani: what's wrong with you Jai? Why are you behaving out of character suddenly? How did you knew Veer was alone?
Jai: because you were with that stupid Mayuri...

I felt mad rage inside me, I felt someone took life out of me. It meant that Veer was always right that Jai isn't the right person for me but I denied him and insulted him for feeling insecure from Jai. But today the air around me was heavy and suffocating, my eyes were getting clouded with tears but I can't lose my resolve and I have to keep up with this facade. I saw from corners of my eyes that Veer was looking at me with questioning eyes, I felt guilty. But first I have to teach a lesson to Jai.
