VEER'S POV :-

As we entered the club, I was taken aback by what I saw - my lady, clad in a stunning black dress that reached mid-thigh and had a deep neckline, took my breath away.

She looked ethereal, and it was the first time I had seen her dressed so seductively. Her beauty left me speechless, but I couldn't help but notice that she seemed upset.

I then looked around for our friends and spotted Rey, Aadvik, and Edric standing there with their mouths agape.

Following their gaze, I was shocked to see Reet and Aashvi physically confronting a man. They were fuckin beating his ass off .I was confused and wondered what was happening.

Just then, Dhriti rushed towards Tulip, leaving me even more perplexed.

As I turned my attention to the view, I noticed Tulip was in tears, which caused my heart to tighten with concern.

I wondered what could have triggered her emotional response. Feeling a surge of anger, I couldn't help but think that someone was going to face severe consequences.

I instructed the boys to investigate the situation, and as they nodded in agreement, I approached Tulip to find out what was wrong.

Why is she crying ? " , I asked, startled, and Dhriti recoiled at the sudden inquiry.

"V-Veer, it's just—" she stammered.

"Dhriti, what's going on here?" ,I pressed.

"That guy tried to force himself on her. " ,she replied, her words igniting a surge of anger within me, my jaw clenched and fists tightened as I  approached the man.

How could this piece of shit possibly have the nerve to touch my woman, my Tulip, and even worse, force himself on her?

I grabbed him by his collar , he was already bleeding but the anger inside me was no near to calm . I started punching him like a maniac making my knucles bleed ,when I heard my tulip's sobs .

The moment I heard her, my attention immediately shifted to her, while the boy apprehended the man and handed him over to the guards, who knew exactly how to handle him.

The rest could deal with him later; for now, my priority was my tulip, who needed me the most.

I approached her, knelt down to her level, and gently held her cheeks to make her face me. As our eyes met, my heart ached at the sight of her. Her tear-filled eyes, usually bright, now looked up at me with a deep sadness.

I momentarily closed my eyes to compose myself, then opened them to find her hazel brown eyes locked on mine, filled with worry. Despite her continued sobs, I wondered what could be causing her such distress.

" Shhhh , meri jaan ! Kyu ro rahe rahe ho aap ? Kya ho gaya ? ", I asked her while wiping her tears with my thumb pads.

( shh , love why are you crying ? What'd happened? )

" Wo-woh you-your hands Veer.... They're blee- they're bleeding ", As she continued to sob, cradling my battered hands in her gentle palms, I couldn't help but think, this girl terrifies me. Yet, I'm willing to risk everything for her.

What struck me, however, was her genuine concern for my well-being, and despite myself, a smile crept onto my face.

I  reassured Tulip that everything is fine, but she disagreed, pointing out that my hands are  bleeding and they must be paining.
