~Anirudh.

Anirudh groaned as the sunlight coming from the window hit his face. It was morning. He slept for only four hours in two days. Half of the time he wasn't even at the mansion. It was eight in the morning. Since he was free today as he reviewed the bundles of file days ago he had a day off. This day only comes once a year. Normally Anirudh was a workaholic indeed. All three brothers were.

He was sleeping with his front glued to the bed. He heard the door slowly opening. He turned his head towards the door and kept his eyes slightly open so he could see what was happening. Ishika's head came into view. Slowly she opened the door and tip-toed in the room assuming that Anirudh was asleep. She twisted the Knob of the cupboard and it made a sound. She slapped her palm on her forehead as she paused. Anirudh didn't react as he wanted to see what she was doing. She twisted the Knob slowly and opened the door and removed a file.

As she turned around her thigh collided with the edge of the table. It was sharp. She tipped her head back and let out a silent scream. Her features tightened with pain as she clutched her thigh with both of her hands and bent down to ease the pain. She exhaled slowly and exited the room by basically crawling.

Anirudh sat up on the bed and grabbed his phone. He called the bodyguard that he assigned for Ishika to accompany her to college. "Location"

"Front of the mansion. She's coming down from the stairs" Jay answered.

"Condition" Anirudh ordered.

"Ughh....not bad but she is wincing a little bit."

"You'll accompany her wherever she goes. No exception whatsoever. Stay in front of the college" Anirudh said.

"Certainly sir" Jay answered.

He declined the call and slumped back. He looked at the ceiling. Did she got hurt badly? Will she get bruised? Anirudh shook himself and got up from the bed. She wasn't hurt badly.

Or was She?

He changed into a t-shirt and sweatpants as he went for the boxing practice. He spotted Ansh already throwing some punches in the air. "Wedding night was not as bad as I thought. No bruises?" Anirudh said.

"Wasn't bad. But I can say it was better than your's" Ansh said.

Anirudh stilled as he remembered the first night he spent with Ishika. It has been almost six months. The thing was he never once noticed Ishika's want to end the marriage. Why was the question? He didn't know the answer. Still, did he fantasize about her being under him.?

Yes. Every fucking time. He hated himself for that. He wanted to hate her too. He just couldn't let himself to do that because she hasn't done anything. He wanted her to do something so he could use it against her as a defence mechanism. But the problem was that she was too fucking pure.

Three hours in and they finally finished. Ansh clasped Anirudh's shoulders. "Planned the honeymoon?" Ansh asked.

"Dadi told you didn't she?" Anirudh sighed.
