At Atharv's house,

Atharv woke up with a heavy headache.

"Auch!"Atharv held his head as sudden pain shot up in his head.

"Drink this. You will feel bit better." A voice sounded with concern.

"Thanks ajju."Atharv said subconsciously then drank it in one go.

"I am Aditya, atharv."Aditya said then atharv raised his head in shock. Not able to trust his own eyes, Atharv stared aditya deeply.

Aditya sat beside atharv and then held aditya's hands.

"I am alive just to keep you away from the guilt, Atharv."Aditya said. The words and warmness in the aditya's hands made atharv believe what's in front of his eyes and he pulled his hands from aditya's hold.

"Guilt? That too for trying to kill a devil alike you. Don't joke, Prince. Now tell me why are you here?"Atharv's voice drenched with pure sarcasm.

"I am here to fulfill my revenge; to feed the devil which I raised in my heart. You don't need to have any doubt on that, atharv."Aditya replied with coldness.

"You haven't change a single bit. And, I really regret..."Atharv paused as aditya interrupted.

"For shooting me."Aditya asked.

"For not finishing your chapter correctly."Atharv replied while his hands travelled towards the nearby table for taking his gun.

"Your gun isn't there, Atharv."Aditya said and pointed atharv's dismantled pistol on the side of bed.

"And I am not here to harm you."Aditya sounded genuine which in turn increased the  confusion in atharv mind.

"Then, when are you going to kill me?"Atharv asked as he didn't aditya's words.

"You won't trust me. That's not your mistake also."Aditya sounded bit hurt then continued , "I am here to speak about vividha."

"Don't dare to even think about hurting her. "Atharv's eyes sparkled with anger .

"You still love her. Isn't it?"Aditya asked.

"I never thought you will become this much worst."Atharv said in the doubt that aditya was trying to threaten him with vividha's name.

Aditya smiled bitterly while atharv wondered about his smile.

"Take her with you as your wife, atharv. Otherwise, she will be killed."Aditya warned.

Losing his composure while hearing about killing vividha, Atharv punched on aditya's face hardly.

"How dare you threaten me in the name of her life, aditya?"Atharv tried to throw another punch but aditya held his hands then left it.

"You still love her, atharv. Don't let your revenge destroy everyone's life. Don't ruin your life like me. Don't end up like me. Don't!" Aditya shook atharv by holding him by his shoulders.

"Bhaiyu!"Atharv spelled in shock after a long time leaving all his anguish against aditya.

Aditya turned opposite to atharv.

"Now you have to decide what you want atharv either revenge or your love. And, don't trust on everything whatever you see. "Aditya said and then stormed out of the room by leaving all the guards stunned with his presence. Within a second, return of Aditya, the infamous uncrowned prince of rathore clan, spread like a forest fire in the clan meanwhile Atharv wondered about aditya's return and his sudden concern over his life.
