"You ready?" Shivam asked Mishti, as they both stare at each other while waiting for Ritwik to show up so that they can start tattooing her skin. It's 9 in the morning of next day and there's no news of his.

"But what about Ritwik?" She asked but Shivam sighed in defeat.

"We are waiting from almost an hour. He hasn't showed up means he don't want to." Shivam's words made Mishti feel guilty. Perhaps he isn't showing up because of her. But Mishti is glad he isn't here. She is not ready to face him yet.

Just thinking about him make her remember how he reacted yesterday and slapped her across her face. Her right side still stings because of the impact.

Om called him yesterday that Mishti is gonna join their mafia today and he didn't said anything except from saying that he would be home by tomorrow.

No one knows where he spent the night. Maybe in one of the clubs or hotels he owns. Maybe he spent a night of pleasure with some other woman too to relieve himself from the stress he has taken. That's what Shivam said earlier, and those words accidentally slipped from his lips which he regretted Immediately. But Mishti assured him that there's no need to hide these kind of details from her now. She isn't mad and has no right to say anything to Ritwik. He can do whatever he want. But that was opposite of the inner turmoil she was suffering from after hearing the news. She was highly disturbed by the fact that Ritwik was a man-whore.

Mishti went to the office behind Om and Shivam. There Was the person namely Nikhil, who would be tattooing her right handed upper arm today. He is a charming person and loves tattoos. He is the part of Mafia too and was quite shocked when get to know that someone like Mishti, who doesn't even know how to defend herself is joining their family.

Another point to note, they don't call themselves a group or gang, they call themselves a family because they will die for each other and will do anything to prove their loyalty. Om's words.

"You aren't nervous are you?" Nikhil asked Mishti as she -smiled warmly and shook her head.

"I'm excited instead." She exposed and Shivam laughed making Mishti narrow her eyes.

"What? Our innocent princess loves tattoos and bad vibes ah?" Mishti rolled her eyes at him as every one chuckled at her reaction.

Shivam and Om were smiling ear to ear and Mishti was getting ready to get tattoos when the office door opened.

They stare at the intruder and Mishti's heart beat fastened watching him staring at her. Ritwik has finally shown up. As always she was unable to read his natural face. He stepped forward and smiled at Nikhil. Mishti was awkwardly staring at him as once again he meet her gaze.

"Let's start the process. We don't have much time." Om interrupted as Nikhil settled beside her and the other three men were sitting in front of them on the chairs.

Mishti tried to divert her attention from Ritwik as much as possible. Nikhil gripped the dragonhawk tattoo pen in his hands and Mishti felt some unknown feeling tugging in her stomach. She was all excited before but now suddenly she was nervous, Perhaps that was because Ritwik was present here and his gaze didn't left Mishti even for a minute.
