Bound By Unknown(✔)

XXI. Trust

Love a magical feeling, anyone can get lost in that feeling and a first love in that, a truly magical feeling. Avni felt it and was enjoying swimming in that feeling, she was experiencing new emotions which were overwhelming. A single person clouded all her thoughts, she was always thinking of him and eagerly waiting for him. Five days since the night, she lost her virginity to him and he was her only thought.

She was going to office and she was learning everything about company, the board members appreciated her presentations on new products. She is improving. Avni was spending her nights in Abhi's bed and was enjoying it. She spend her free time with Diya and they both team together and pull pranks on Abhi. But there was a feeling at the bottom of her heart which still lingered after that phone call. She still remembered her words.

"Seema", Avni was shocked listening to the person who birthed Diya, my sweet angel. Then all she was feeling was anger towards Seema for trying to kill Diya in her womb and for cheating on Abhi.

"Why the heck are you calling me?" Avni spat venomously into the phone only to receive a chuckle.

"Oh, so the princess truly have fangs! Ah, I would love to pull those fangs out for you." She said haughtily. Avni felt herself shiver from the malice in her tone.

"I am in no mood for chit-chat, tell me the reason why you called," Avni said not in mood to listen to the vile woman. She checked the room, surveying that if Abhi woke.

"Tch, Why should I not call you? After all you are going to be step mother for my daughter. I am just taking precautions and introducing myself to you before others can damage my reputation in front of you."

"Your reputation! Like hell I care about it, all I want is for my daughter Diya to be happy." Avni was boiling with rage after listening to her speak about Diya. But kept her voice low.

"Oh, you are not shouting. It means you have company. Wow, I must admire you, just ten days and you bedded with the beast. He was a beast in bed right. Always taking control." Avni kept quite not wanting to listen or speak to her about anything, she ignored the pang she felt in her heart.

"Silence now. I will just tell you the reason why I called you. You think you can take my daughter from me and become a mother, I will never allow that happen. I carried her in my womb and I have all the rights over her and you can't know the feeling as you can't bear any child of your own." Avni's breath hitched at that but Seema went on, "I am going to get my child and Abhi back and you can't do a thing about it. Abhi may tell he loves you but he only loved me. So enjoy that relation while it lasts." And the call was cut leaving Avni shocked.

Avni was feeling conflicted with different emotions, but decided to sleep and tell to Abhi everything about it the next morning. Avni climbed into the bed and Abhi instantly hugged her pulling her towards him and uttered the words, which broke her heart.

"I love you, Seema."

Avni felt the crack in her heart, but she never told Abhi about it. She understood that she can't take Seema's place in his life, she wanted to make her own place. She did not tell him a word about the call and he did not suspect a thing.

"Avni, look at this?" Avni came out of her thoughts and looked at Akky who was holding a dress. They were doing some wedding shopping, as they will be leaving tomorrow for the wedding venue, which was a secret kept from her. Avni was not excited in knowing it with so many problems and even learning about a company.

"Nah, it is too bright. Something lighter," Avni replied and they shopped all the evening for the necessities.

Abhi was working in his study when Avni came home tired of work and shopping, and found him in his study working. She stepped into his room and his gaze shifted to her and smiled at her. He signaled her to give her a minute and Avni nodded and started observing the office. His home office was different from the office in the main one. It has some feminine taste in it compared to that one.
