What hurts the most ?
Shattered dreams, broken reality Or clipped wings?
For Aarunya, she had already faced it all.
With a pillaged soul and an abusive marriage where all her dreams were shattered in the game of his revenge, she was burnt into ashe...

The following day arrived with a new challenge for Aarunya as she had to sit within the same room that too with the same man who she hated from her core after so long years to have breakfast together.
As for Trayaksh, then his hawk-like eyes were fixated on Aarunya as he sat across her at the oval-shaped and elegant dining table.
Aarunya noticed the way he kept stealing glances, as if curious to know more about her yet again while she tried her best to maintain the facade of being a loving and caring wife to her oh so called hubby dearest.
The servants stayed in their place, bowing their heads down and waiting for any order from their young master and young mistress.
His gaze kept fixated on the woman who was taking the bites of her food quickly, her actions were anything but steady, her eyes fixed on the plate in front of her as she ignored the existence of her husband completely.
"What a messy eater" Trayaksh's inner self uttered inside.
"Mhm..messy... but cute. A beautiful mess" His inner consciousness spoke again as his lips automatically and unknowingly curved into a small smile looking at the cute woman in front of him.
Trayaksh was never a fan of mess. In Fact the Rajput heir always liked his things well arranged and steady, a life balanced and under his control but looking at his wife, now all he could think of is how even mess is ephemeral.
Ephemeral...
Just like her.
Ocean.
He unknowingly mumbled as Aarunya's ears perked up hearing his voice.
"Why aren't you eating?"
Concealing her nervousness, she asked while slightly raising her hazel- honey eyes at him as if trying to change the topic.
"I can't eat by myself. My hand is still injured after the accident"
He reasoned, showing her his hand plastered and covered as he licked his lips with a sly smirk on that handsome face.
"I see. Maybe Azad uncle would help you.. Should I call him here?"
Trayaskh frowned hearing her suggestion as his thick brows wrinkled and lip twitched in distaste.
"Why would I need Azad uncle when my beautiful wife is sitting in front of me hm?"
Aarunya's eyes widened as she wasn't not expecting his shameless answer.
"This man is truly shameless! Absurd." Her inner self spoke up and she tried her best not to sneer at him.
Aarunya wanted to throw the whole jug of ice-cold water on his face and leave upstairs to her floor but unfortunately she knew she's bound and trapped right now with the dummy monster infront of her.
