LIVING ROOM

Prerna looked directly at the sweating, shivering man on the edge of the couch, her voice turning into a whip of pure steel.

"It was him, Mani," Prerna sobbed, her finger pointing unblinkingly at the pale, trembling figure. "It was Mr. Rishabh Bajaj."

The name hung in the air like a lethal gas, turning the ambient warmth of the living area into a suffocating vacuum

The name hung in the air like a lethal gas, turning the ambient warmth of the living area into a suffocating vacuum. For a fraction of a second, the entire house froze, the reality of the accusation paralyzing the sixteen contestants seated across the sprawling velvet couches.

"What the actual hell?!" Karan Kundrra screamed. He vaulted to his feet, his jaw white with rage as his fists clenched so hard his knuckles turned translucent. He took a violent step forward, the floorboards groaning under his weight. "Tell me I didn't just hear that name. Tell me this is some sick joke!"

"Step away from the couches, Bajaj," Arjun growled, his voice dropping into a register that none of the housemates had ever heard from the usually lighthearted contestant. "Don't you dare move a single inch. Sit right there until you're dealt with."

But nobody was faster than Manik Malhotra. The revelation that Bajaj had not only touched her twice but had dared to use his life, his career, and his name as a leverage to terrorize her into a forty-eight-hour silence pushed Manik completely over the edge of human sanity. The civilized, restrained rockstar—the calculated player who moved through the game with a cold, strategic distance—vanished into the ether. What remained was an ancient, primitive, and lethal force of nature.
