Aadhira

"Don't you know why you're here? Didn't you already receive our wedding Invitation? Day after tomorrow is our wedding. How can I let my bride go?" He asked casually while I felt like someone has poured a bucket of cold water on me. I shivered hearing his words while tears started to fell from my eyes. I kept looking at his determined face which only said that he will do what he said.

Madhav, how can I now escape from the clutches of this monster? Show me a path, Please, Madhav.

"Wh...what are saying? Let me go from here. My parents would be worried about me" I said, my voice trembled at the end.

"Today I sent our wedding Invitation to your parents and to your uncles' as well. You can meet them after our wedding" he stated without any emotion while I stood rooted on my spot, processing all his words.

"Why did you send that to them? Are you crazy? I won't marry you. I won't. Do you hear me?" I shouted, glaring at him, tears streaming down my face. His face hardened as he took a step towards me, prompting me to retreat.

"Keep your tone in check when you're talking to me. Otherwise, you won't like the consequences. And I will marry you whether you agree or not" he stated in a rage filled voice, looking at me coldly. His sharp gaze sent shivers down my spine.

No, I must not provoke him. I am at his mercy now. Instead of angering him further, I should attempt to pursuade him to abandon the idea of marrying me. Even though the chance of him listening to my words are slim, I should try. He is doing this all to take revenge on me, right? Then apolizing to him might atleast make him change his decision.

"Listen, marriage is not a child's play. It's a sacred bond uniting not only two souls but two families. I understand that you're doing this all just to take revenge on me, right? Alright, the temple was in your property and built by you royal people. I should have talked to you before doing something like opening the temple. I sincerely apologise for defying your order. If you want me to apologise in public, I'm ready for that too" I said with soft tone, meeting his gaze. His lips curved as he observed me intently.

"Aadhira, do you think that I want to marry you for revenge?" He questioned me, raising his eyebrows. I frowned hearing his words.

"If you're not doing this all for revenge then for what? Mr. Suryawanshi, don't tell me that you have fallen in love with me or something. Because you're not capable of loving someone. I am certain of that" I stated with a faint smile. He nodded in agreement and took a step closer, entering into my personal space. I attempted to retreat but my legs collied with the table, hindering my movement.

"Stay away from me" I warned but he pulled me into his embrace, wrapping his arm around my waist, infuriating me.

"Don't you dare touch me. Leave me. I said leave me" I shouted at him, struggling in his hold. His breathing fanned on my face while his hold on me tightened which scared me to the core. Angry tears welled up in my eyes, making me feel utterly helpless against this monster.

"You're right, Aadhira. I want to marry you not out of love or affection, but because.... I want you. I want you as my wife, my queen" he said with a sadistic smile on his face.

Want me? Only he can utter such disgusting words...

"You want me? How can you stoop so low? Do you take me as a plaything?" I questioned looking at him still struggling to free from his embrace. He didn't say anything but he kept looking at my lips with his desire filled eyes which intensified my panick. Sensing a slight loosening of his grip on my waist, I seized the opportunity to push him away, causing him to stumble a few steps back.
