Her Secret

Chapter 11 - HS

A/N: I don't know what tf is wrong with this site, it just published chapter 12 yesterday and I wasn't even aware. I had scheduled it for the next week and now as I check my notifications, it shows its published!? I was confused and still am. I mean how did this happen even? Nvm, I am not going to schedule my chapters now. Have seen the result.😒

For  those of you who have already read chapter 12, I'm sorry but I've unpublished it. Because you can't just skip a chapter and maybe Wattpad isn't aware, or maybe it is. Idk if it was a glitch but pls read this one and forget the chapter 12. Its not going to make sense until you read this.

"HIS ANGER DIDN'T LET HIM STOP CARING. HE WILL ALWAYS DO."

~*~*~

She walked inside her room crashing on her bed. She huffed, burrowing herself in her comforter and pillows. She breathed in a breath of relief as her ankle got the much-needed rest. She felt like she climbed a mountain at hurricane's speed. She felt so tired. Her eyes dropped, in need of sleep. The past few days sleep has been a luxury for her.

She inhales a deep breath, getting reminded of Kartik as her nostrils are hit with the scent of him. Kartik Malhotra is here, in Oberoi Mansion. He wore the same drenched clothes that he was wearing at the temple. He cannot be a guest, not when he comes here dressed up like that. Any sane man would go to his home first, change, and then go to someone else's place.

That's when it clicked her.

Her mind reeled back to when Naina kept on teasing her. The songs that were being played in the house since that particular dinner where everything felt suspicious to her. The empty seats at the dining table. Gauri and Ria's silent conversions. Everything clicked in. She groaned as realization hit her.

The Malhotra brothers live here.

" Since when? God! How can I be so stupid enough to not check this? " She face-palmed herself. Throwing her head back and burrowing it the pillows. She sighed. There's nothing that she can do now. If he is here, then it means his brothers are here too. Which means the food fight that took place yesterday featured Siddharth and Shaurya too. Why didn't she check the faces? Good question.

She yawned. Her body had zero strength left. She wanted to just sleep. She was about to work on her thought of sleeping and getting a much-needed rest when yesterday's announcement announced itself in her head. Gauri aunty had specifically asked her to be there afterwards. She can't skip it.

" Get up! " She muttered to herself, trying to gain some motivation. Sitting up straight, she felt her body wanting to reel back into the bed. She stumbled into her bathroom, ripped off her saree off her. Throwing it in the basket she separated for dirty clothes, she walked into the shower. Tried to walk, almost falling flat on her face. She huffed an annoyed breath.

She is going to kill him.

Her revenge has to be worse than this. She feels so weak. Like she'll fall any second, literally. And she hates it. Hates the feeling of not being in power. She closed her eyes as cold water hit her. She'll have to plan her revenge very meticulously. Her every step, every breathe should be planned and go as expected. Not. A. Single. Thing should be unplanned.

After washing and cleansing her body, she applied her lavender and lily moisturizer, dried her hair which looked much better after the hair wash. She ran a hand through her hair, throwing them back, finishing her skin routine. She heated her ankle while she was bathing. The swelling was almost gone, and it felt better while walking but there was still a hint of pain.
