The night of the charity gala finally arrived, and Aarohi made a breathtaking entrance in a stunning black gown. Her hair was pulled back into a sleek, high bun, showcasing her sharp features and piercing eyes. A delicate silver necklace glinted around her neck, adding a touch of elegance to her overall look.

Tanya, on the other hand, was a vision in red, her vibrant gown perfectly complementing her bright smile and sparkling eyes. Her hair cascaded down her back in loose waves, and her makeup was flawless, accentuating her natural beauty. As the two cousins entered , heads turned in their direction, drawn in by their poise, confidence, and undeniable charm.

But amidst the glamour and glitz, Aarohi's eyes scanned the room, searching for one person - Vidyut. She knew he was here, and she was determined to keep her distance, but a part of her was drawn to him, like a moth to a flame.

As they entered, Vidyut's eyes scanned the room, locking onto Aarohi with an intensity that made her skin prickle. But he quickly masked his fascination with a charming smile, turning his attention to Tanya. "I'm so glad you could make it," he said, his voice dripping with sincerity. Tanya beamed with pride, feeling like she was the only woman in the room, oblivious to the fact that Vidyut's eyes kept drifting back to Aarohi.

Aarohi, standing across the room, looked stunning in her black gown, her beauty radiating like a beacon. Vidyut's gaze lingered on her, he couldn't quite conceal. But whenever Tanya looked his way, he promptly returned his attention to her, showering her with charm and flattery.

Rohan's eyes narrowed as he noticed Vidyut's gaze lingering on Aarohi. He frowned, his jaw clenched in disapproval. He was determined to keep Aarohi away from Vidyut's charming.

Without hesitation, Rohan made his way through the crowd, his eyes fixed on Aarohi. He reached her side and subtly positioned himself between her and Vidyut, creating a barrier between them. Aarohi, sensing Rohan's tension, turned to him with a questioning look. Rohan's expression was stern, his eyes warning her to stay away from Vidyut.

Vidyut, however, seemed undeterred. He continued to chat with Tanya, his eyes occasionally drifting back to Aarohi.

As the clock struck midnight, the host announced a dance, and the room erupted in a flurry of movement. Vidyut seized the opportunity, his eyes locked on Aarohi's, burning with an intensity that made her heart race. He strode towards her, his hand extended, and Aarohi felt a shiver run down her spine as he took her hand.

"Let's make this a night to remember," he whispered in her ear, his breath sending tremors down her neck. Aarohi's heart skipped a beat as Vidyut pulled her close, his body inches from hers. She felt like she was melting into his arms, like she was losing herself in the depths of his eyes.

The music swirled around them, a sensual rhythm that seemed to match the beating of their hearts. Aarohi's senses were overwhelmed by Vidyut's presence, his touch, his scent. She felt like she was drowning in his eyes, like she was surrendering to a force beyond her control.
As the music ended, Vidyut bowed low, his eyes never leaving Aarohi's face.

And so, the night drew to a close.
Aarohi's heart still raced from the touch of Vidyut's hand, her mind reeling with the memories of his piercing gaze. She knew that she had crossed a threshold, that there was no going back from the feelings that had been unleashed tonight.
Vidyut, too, was lost in thought, his eyes burning with an intensity that seemed to consume him whole. He knew that he had found something special in Aarohi, something that he couldn't quite put into words. But he was determined to explore it, to follow this spark wherever it might lead.

As the city slumbered, unaware of the storm that was brewing in the hearts of these two souls, fate was already weaving a web of destiny that would entwine their lives forever. The night had ended, but the real beginning was only just starting.
