Mandakini POV

"Why did you do that bhabhi?"

Jai bhaiya asked me, kneeling beside my bed.

"Are you also involved, bhaiya?"

My voice turned throaty. He was the man who had kidnapped me, but now he was my best friend. He was the only one who knew that I was pregnant. I couldn't endure his involvement in this heinous plan. The shocking revelations were already harming my mind a lot.

"My father IS involved in this deadly plan, and I know it."

He muttered, and my eyes widened. I immediately pivoted my head towards his mother's direction, and her inscrutable countenance bespoke that she knew it already.

"Then why didn't you tell him all that?"

I asked, being stupefied.

"My brothers are insane animals. Their brains leave their bodies when anger overpowers them. Balraj bhaiya saw you lying in the blood pool, and he slaughtered Aryan Ali Khan, invading his Haveli, right in front of everyone's gaze."

He paused for a moment, and I gulped. He had killed him. He didn't take a moment to think about the consequences. Did he do it for me or his daughter?

"This one incident has triggered the Hindus and the Muslims of the entire state. The state is on the verge of burning now, and I've no idea how are we going to stop it."

He pecked the back of my hand, and continued

"Now imagine him knowing what our father is doing. He will kill him on the spot, without a second thought. Bhabhi, we aren't a normal family. The media keeps an eye on us. People follow us. I know my father deserves death, and he'll undoubtedly receive it, but not in this way. Our name will be maligned before everyone, and people won't forget it for ages."

He imparted the information to me, and I licked on my lower lip. I cast a glance at my mother-in-law, and deciphered that she wasn't wearing her nuptial chain. A faded mark of vermilion was visible in the partition of her hairline, demonstrating that she hasn't applied for quite a few days.

"I'm going to be a widow soon, and look at my I'll fate, I'm happy about it, because I was married to a monster, whose death will bring harmony to the state."

She had observed my gaze, so she muttered this.

"What about his plan?"

I asked them, and Jai bhaiya mumbled

"He'll be dead tomorrow."

I gulped, and now I was feeling thirsty.

"For the world."

Ma maffled, and I gawked at her.

"He will be tortured properly before he dies in reality."

She completed, and I gaped at her. What were they planning?

"Where is my father?"

I asked them, remembering that my father was still not here. Where did he go? Did Jaswant Singh Thakur kidnap him? My heart was racing grievously. These guys can stoop low beyond our imagination.

"He and Arjun have been tracking your sister's location all these days, and now they have found her. She will be here soon."

Jai informed me, and my teary eyes felt like coming out of the socket. I had seen her, and I could just feel her pain, even when she had not lifted up her gaze. She is my blood, and I was feeling terribly bad for her now.
