Aayat: Falling In Love (You Are The Reason) (Mewars #1)

Episode 7: Heartbreak

Next Evening

Author's POV

They were back in Korea, welcomed grandly on the airport and at the palace entrance, they got married for the second time, she was coronated, and now they were supposed to consummate their marriage tonight.

She was waiting for him since past one hour, but there was no sign of him.

She was tensed but shrugged it off thinking that he was gone for a week he might need to deal with something.

Instead of sitting idly, she thought to take a walk around the garden outside their chambers.

She headed out through the hallways.

"Oh dio piccola proprio così, mi fai sentire così bene Riah, mi mancava così tanto questa tua fica. (Oh god baby just like this, you make feel so good Riah, I missed this cunt of yours so much.)" she heard his voice from inside a room, he was seemingly groaning. Though she didn't get a word he said, but she figured out he was talking to a lady named Riah.

Avni's POV

I heard his voice, it was a groan, which sounded so wrong, he was talking to a lady.

I hesitantly twisted the door knob to find it unlocked, the what I saw was the most heart wrenching thing I ever saw.

My husband, was naked lying on the bed, with a blonde woman riding him.

I stood their frozen, not knowing tears we making their way out of my eyes.

Kyle's POV

As soon as she opened the door, mine and Riah's gaze went towards her, I was stunned, I did want to hurt her but not this way, I didn't want her to see me having sex with another woman on our wedding night.

God, the hurt expression on her face, why is it paining me.

But.... wait.... This is the best way to punish her after all she loves me.

"Don't mind her, she is the new wife of mine, continue" I told Riah, she gave me a nod and continued riding me, moaning out loud, but my attention was on her, Avni who was still standing their frozen, "Oh god Kyle I am close" Riah moaned out loud, and with that my wife ran away.

I headed back to my room an hour after that incident, having another round with Riah, but my thought were clogged with the hurt expression on her face all along.

I opened the door to my room, to hear soft sobs, I saw her in a corner her head dug in her knees, my heart told me to go and console her, tell her this won't happen ever again, but my mind said to ignore, her after all I don't make false promises and I would love Riah forever. I chose to hear to my brain as the hurt of mine always pushes me into the problems that are unsolvable.

I ignored her and straight away headed to the bed.

I twisted and turned for a few minutes, knowing she was looking at me hopefully, maybe wanting me to explain and say it wasn't what she saw but I won't lie to her as it's one of the things I despise most, I despise lying, I despise myself for lying to her during the Haldi Ceremony and the nuptials.

A few more minutes passed away like this until she came and sat beside me, hesitantly tapped my shoulder to know if I am awake or not.

I didn't respond faking to be asleep, I saw her smiling sadly with my slight opened eyes.

Her soft fingers approached my cheek, caressing it softly.

"Don't you know how much I love you, didn't you realize how happy I was?" she said softly in a broken voice, "I was overjoyed when Dadu-sa told me I am getting married to you, but never once I thought about this, if you had her then why did you marry me, why did you deny when I asked you if you love someone else, why did you not step back, why did you Kyle?!!!" she screamed by the end. "You know it hurts here-" her hand traveled to her chest where her heart was "- I thought we would live happily, loving and cherishing each other, never once I thought that I would encounter you having sex with some other woman on our wedding night, you know Kyle, if you would tell me it won't happen again, I would.... Trust you without any doubt and grudges, but my heart won't forget what I saw today, I want to go away and never see you again but for that I am in too much love with you additionally Dadu-sa's health is declining day by day, he is prone to heart attack and our separation might take away his life, so, I would stay beside you, I would be a wife, an obedient one, waiting for you everyday, knowing that you won't ever come to me because you have her, ignoring all your unfaithfulness, loving you cherishing you with all my heart, no matter how much it hurts, but only till the day my dadu-sa lives after that I would disappear forever, by the way thank you for that beautiful time in India, thanks for being my first and probably last as I don't know if I would be able to love ever again after this, you broke me Your highness, intentionally or unintentionally you broke me...... but still the stupid me, still loves you..... Can't bring herself to hate you....... From this moment I am going to swallow my self respect and pride, pledging to be a devoted wife ignoring all your unfaithfulness only till the time my dadu-sa lives" she said pecked my forehead and laid herself beside me, not falling asleep but still sobbing.

God why are you sounding this innocent after what you have done, you are indeed deceitful. No this is all pretense after all you are the one who tried kill Riah, you always knew about her.

An hour passed, but still the sleep was nowhere near me, I was just gazing at her tear stained sleeping visage, looking at her made me question if she really did all that, but the proofs said it was her only, however she can't be pretending while being asleep...... but the recording.

Gosh, stop it Kyle, she must be faking it, the recording can't be a lie, it was her voice only.

"Nahi kah dijiye vo jhooth tha, kah dijiye aap hume pyaar karte hain" she mumbled in her sleep, I quickly revised her words and searched them on internet No tell me it was all a lie, tell me you love me I read. I take a deep breath and get up and leave the room as being with her here would only make me feel more and more guilty, I should head to Riah, she is the only one who can distract me from these meaningless thoughts.

Next Morning

Avni's POV

I woke up with ringing of my phone, and found his side empty, the call was a videocall from Abhyuday bhai. No I can't pick his call looking like this, I need to get dressed first.

I took a quick bath, got dressed in a red silk saree, applied some lipstick, vermillion, no jewelry as it's hectic, tied my hairs in a loose low pony tail and then called back Abhyuday Bhai.

"Maan, listen it's your bacha's call" Abhyuday bhai announced.

"Coming" Maan bhai replied.

"Kaisi hai tu, tera khayaal to rakh raha hai na vo, dekh bacha agar vo tujhe halka sa bhi pareshaan kare to hume bata diyo darne ki koi zaroorat nahi hai, hum zinda nahi chodenge use (How are you, he is taking care of you right, see bacha if he is distressing you a bit tell me, don't fear, I would kill him)" Abhyuday bhai shot me up with multiple questions all at once.

"I am fine bhai, he is treating me good, but I just miss y'all" I said, trying not to bring up the events from last night.

We chatted for a few more minutes and then ended the call, my mood was lifted a bit from talking to my family, dadi-sa told me to prepare any sweet dish for the family as an Indian ritual, to which I agreed, I was about to get up and head to the kitchen but my phone ringed again, it was Abhimaan bhai's voice call, he seemed lost and quiet during the video call so I picked up his call.

"Kya kiya usne? (What did he do?)" he asked as soon as I picked up his call.

"Kuch nahi (Nothing)" I replied.

"Jhooth mat bolo hume, dekhi thi humne tumhari aakhon ki udaasi (Don't lie to me, I saw the sadness in your eyes)" he said, and it struck me, he must have known about that girl or he too would have shrugged that expression of mine thinking it was just because I am missing them.

"Aapko pata tha? (Did you know?)" I asked in disbelief.

"Bacha, maine kaha tha usey ki us ladki ko chd de, aur usne haan bhi bola tha (Bacha I asked him to leave that girl and he agreed as well)" he explained, but still how can he marry me off to a man who loved someone else, was I a good riddance for him , must be this only after all I was just a burden for him and others in palace.

"Aapki koi galti nahi hai isme bhai (It's not your fault)" I muttered but deep inside my heart, I blamed him for this, marrying me to a man who loved someone else.

"What did he do?" he asked again, "I walked up to him having sex with his girl friend last night, anyways it doesn't matters as long as he treats me well, it's not like I love him or something" I said, trying to shrug it off.

"You love him a lot, don't you, that you are defending him now also" he muttered sadly, "It's all my fault, I should have ended this relation the day I found him talking to that girl" he concluded, which made my heart ache. "No bhai, it's not, and I don't love him, it's fine he can be with her, I don't mind ands it's not something new, mostly royal marriages are like this only" I said, "Anyways, did you talk to Sia" I tried to change the topic, "No, and I won't" "She doesn't deserves this, she loves you a lot since she was 4" I said, "Don't talk about her and take care bacha" he said and ended the call.

I smiled sadly and headed to the royal kitchen to prepare the sweet dish.
