I had never felt this kind of panic in my life. My chest heaved with every breath as I ran from that monster-no, that hellion-who had destroyed my life. I had thrown the mangalsutra onto his bed before climbing down the mansion, a symbolic rejection of everything he forced upon me.
Shweta and Aarav, his sister and brother, were my unlikely saviors, aiding my escape despite the risk. With Sanjay and Joel, my ever-reliable friends, I made it to the airport, breathless and desperate. A last-minute ticket got me on this flight, far away from his suffocating grip.
Now, flying over Mumbai, I had two hours until I landed in Chennai-a city that promised solace, familiarity, and safety.

Before boarding, I had called Arya, my fiancé, explaining everything in a voice choked with fear and anger. His response had been calm but firm: "I'll take care of it, Divya. I'll protect you from everything, especially from that bastard, Arjun."
For a moment, guilt surged in me for underestimating Arya before. I had thought he wanted to marry me only for my beauty or desire, but his words revealed something deeper. His promise of protection, his unwavering support-it wasn't mere obligation. It was love.
I was grateful for Arya's unwavering support, but a lingering fear gnawed at me-the fear that Arjun, that hellion, would somehow follow me. My mind clung desperately to one thought: If I reach Arya, no one can touch me.
I repeated it like a mantra, a fragile shield against my rising panic.
Arya wasn't just anyone. As the son of a politician and a successful businessman, he was powerful in his own right. Maybe Arjun held sway in Mumbai, but Chennai was different. In Chennai, Arya's influence would keep me safe.
I will never be his wife.
The thought burned in my mind like a vow. His cruel words echoed in my head-Marriage was a game for him. But for me, coming from a traditional South Indian family, marriage was sacred.
It was a bond, a celebration of love and unity, not a twisted contract born out of manipulation and power.
In South India, we don't wear the black mangalsutra that Arjun forced around my neck. We call it thaali, a gold chain or yellow thread adorned with gold pendants, often bearing images of gods or goddesses, sometimes with gold coins.
