My Little Chiraaiya (completed)

Chapter 12

With a blood curdling scream she rushed down the long halls, the sound of her heels clicking against the marbled floors.

A trail of blood followed her as she clutched her side and tried to make it out of the palace.

Her blood stained hands clutched the wall for support as she stopped to catch her breath for a second before running off again.

Her golden eyes wide with fear as her heart pounded in her chest.

The lights all off as she ran blindly through the dark only to glance back to see if her attacker was following her.

She stepped back seeing nothing, the palace dead silent.

She let out shaky breaths hoping her attacker was gone and went to turn around, but a strong arm had soon wrapped tightly around her neck.

She thrashed letting out another scream before being pulled into the darkness of a room.

A few more thrashing sounds then a thud.
The palace went completely silent, too silent.

~~~~

Gauri  jumped awake sweating and trembling in fear.

Her eyes wide as she frantically looked around and inhaled the air.

Omkara sensed his mate was startled and inhaled the large wave of fear clouding over her.

He growled out and clutched her close to him aware of the hairs standing up on her skin, "Om ...Did...did you hear that?" She stutter out quietly her eyes focused on the door of their room.

He buried his nose into her neck trying to calm her, "...Hear what Gauri ?" She let out a shaky breath, "....It sounded like a scream..."

Before he knew it her eyes went wide as she leapt up out of bed and rushed out of their room across the hall.

He followed swiftly.

She flew open the nursery room door and entered.

All her babies sound asleep as she gave a sigh of relief tears filling her eyes. "Thank goodness you're all alright.." She murmured softly kissing all her babies on their foreheads.

Omkara entered the room, his arms wrapping around Gauri's  waist. "It's alright my little chirraya...our pups are safe...you know I'd never let anything happen to you or them ever.

Ishani and Ranveer have volunteered to watch them earlier..."

As if on cue Ranveer entered the nursery followed by Ishani . Their 2 year old daughter Riddhana slept in a crib near Aadhya crib.

"Sorry we had to deal with dad being all grumpy during a meeting...we're here now to take shift. Arijit's guys are taking the next shift after." Ranveer  replied with a small grin and then nodded to Omkara .

Ishani and Gauri  hugged before she and Omkara then left the room knowing their kids were in good hands.

Omkara kissed Gauri  encouragingly, "It's alright the pups are safe.." She nodded but then headed down the stairs opposite of the way to their room, "...But Om.....I have a gut feeling somethings wrong..."

They both stepped down one of the halls and that's when they smelled it.

Fresh Blood.

He shoved Gauri  immediately behind him and glanced following the blood trail silently.

Mind linking the pack as he gave a low growl seeing the bloody handprint left on the wall.

The blood trail soon stopped at a guest bedrooms door which was left slightly open, usually all doors were closed so no one would enter them.
