Aarohi's POV :
As I woke up from my deep slumber, I looked at the ceiling staring back at me which is not familiar to me at all.
I got confused and my confusion increased as I felt the soft fabric beneath me. It was so soft and fluffy that it feels like I am lying on the clouds.
I have never slept that comfortably before. My bed at home is good but it is nothing compared to this one.
Wait.... Why am I on a cloudy bed? My eyes widened as realisation hit me hard on the face. I jolted up and sit on the bed.
Am I in his room?
I felt someone's gaze on me making me shiver. I looked around and just than my eyes collided with a pair of dark one.
I instantly knew who he was even though he was sitting in the dark but his eyes are enough for me recognise him.
I absurdly get up from the bed and walked to the door. I won't stay here even for a second. I tried to open the door but it was locked.
I freezed hearing him say "You can't escape from me, Sweetheart."
I heard him get up and he turned the lights on. I suddenly felt his presence behind me making me shiver.
I turned around and my breath got stuck in me as I see how close he was standing to me. My cheeks turned red from the proximity.
His hands gently caress my cheek making me snap and pushed him away. To my dislike, He didn't even moved an inch.
He said in a low voice "You are tied to me forever now so running away is of no point, my sweet."
I spit angrily "Neither do I consider you as my husband nor I agree with this marriage. It holds no importance to me."
His eyes darkened as he declared "You will come to terms with it soon enough, darling."
I hissed at him "Don't call me that."
He smirked and said "I can call my wife however I want."
"You are insane." I stepped away from him and walked to the bed again.
I heard him move and after a moment he ordered "Bring the dinner in my room."
I realised he was not talking to me but on the phone.
Dinner?
It's already night?
My eyes widened as I looked around for my phone but didn't find it anywhere.
I asked "Where is my phone?"
He declared in a serious tone "Nowhere. You won't get your phone."
I looked at him in disbelief and said "Why can't I have my phone? Give it back to me. I have to call my bua, she must be worried that I didn't reached home till now."
He said "I already took care of that. They won't ask for you for a few days."
I asked shockingly "What did you do?"
He shrugged and just than we heard a knock on the door. He opened the door and took the food cart from someone I couldn't see. It must be some servant.
I thought to try my luck and shouted "Help, please call the police. This man here.... He kidnapped me-"
Before I could say anything else he slammed the door shut and turned swiftly and said darkly "Neither police nor anyone else can do anything to take you away from me, Aarohi."
Tears welled up in my eyes, again. He bring the plate of the food near me and sighed when I turned my face away from him.
I was sitting on the edge of the bed. He kneel in front of me putting the plate away on the table. He grabbed my hands tightly enough that I won't be able to free them.
His face soften a bit as he said "My sweet, I know it's hard for you. But try to understand, I can't live without you. I was not able to think about anything else except making you mine. I swear I planned on marrying you nicely by asking politely but when you refused.... I was not thinking clearly. Even if you are angry at me, it's ok. Just don't take out your anger on food. I don't want you to starve."
I angrily looked at him and letting my tears fall I said "I don't know anything. I just know that you forced me. I don't want to eat anything take it all away from me."
His grip tightened on my hands as he ordered "You will eat Aarohi. There is no other option for you."
I shake my head stubbornly.
His eyes darkened and he looked like he was controlling himself as he reached for the plate and bring it forward to me. He made a morsel of food and brought it forward to my lips and commanded "Open your mouth Aarohi."
I sealed my lips tightly shaking my head. As I hit his hand away he snapped. He threw the plate away angrily and punched the table making me flinch in my spot.
I closed my eyes tightly fearing he would hit me, as he turned to look at me angrily.
As I again opened my eyes I saw him storming away from the room and slammed the door loudly.
Author's POV :
Vayansh angrily stormed in his office and punched the wall. He slammed all the things kept on a table and pant heavily.
As the room was soundproof, No sound was escaping the office walls.
He closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead. He regretted storming away from her and scaring her but he couldn't control himself if he didn't have walked away than he could have regretted more if he hurted her in his anger.
His inner monster was so angry seeing her rejection and how she flinched thinking he will hurt her but he couldn't blame her. She will need some time in adjusting.
He sighed and started walking to the kitchen when he was stopped by his Chachi who asked "Vayansh, You need something? I will grab it for you, tell me."
Everyone looked at Vayansh from the dining table.
He said "I just wanted to fetch dinner for her."
Mahendra speaks in the middle "Why? Will you now lock her in your room? Let her have dinner with everyone Vayansh."
He angrily looked at him and controlling his anger he said "Don't test me now, Mr. Rathore."
He continued while looking at everyone now "Now, She is not ready to have dinner with everyone. I will bring her tomorrow for breakfast and introduce you all to her."
Devyani smiled in understanding and went to the kitchen to serve dinner for her new daughter-in-law.
She gave it to Vayansh and he went back to his room. As he saw the dark room and empty bed, he sighed and placed the plate of food on the table.
He knows she can't escape from here so he was not worried about that instead he was worried thinking she might hurt herself while trying to escape which he won't like at all.
He looked around for her and saw the balcony door open. He walked towards the door and saw her looking outside lost in her thoughts.
He doesn't want anything more than to hug her from behind right now but he controlled himself.
He walked near her and stands beside her and asked as softly as he can "What are you doing here?"
She startled hearing his voice but didn't looked at his way. She mumbled "Finding ways to escape."
He chuckled and said while pointing his finger somewhere in his garden "Look there, my sweet. If you look carefully you will see someone standing there. And there too, they are my guards who not only guard this mansion but also inform me if anything unusual happens. And there are so many of them around here. I am sure you didn't notice more than two or three guards who are near the main entrance."
Her eyes widened as she looked carefully and really noticed three - four new guards which she didn't noticed before.
She gulped as she was trying to escape from here but couldn't because there were guards at the entrance but what he told her now makes her escape almost impossible.
He chuckled seeing her expressions and said "Come on, I know you are hungry. You can be stubborn but I won't let you escape your dinner."
She thought for a second torn between her hunger and stubborness when he said again "At least eat thinking that you will need some energy to escape from here too. How will you escape if you feel dizzy because you didn't eat anything. I will catch you mid way than."
Realisation drawn on her face as she realised he is right and she is too hungry to argue anymore. After all she can't live without food for too long.
As she started to walk in the room he secretly smiled and shook his head thinking 'She is really a Child. That too A stubborn one.'
She grabbed the plate and sat on the bed. She started eating while he stand near the balcony watching her eat.
She awkwardly asked "Are you just going to stare?"
He shrugged and she irritatingly said "Stop staring. Aren't you hungry? Go and eat your dinner."
He raised his eyebrow and asked playfully "Are you worried I might starve myself, Wifey?"
She frowned and argued "Go to hell. I just want you to leave me alone."
He said "That won't happen ever. Don't worry, I will eat later after I make sure my wife is properly taken care of."
She felt something in her stomach hearing him but not wanting to show it she cleared her throat and said "I can take care of myself. You can go and eat with your family."
He looked at her intently and said "What can I do? My family don't want me around her."
Her face suddenly feel so hot hiding it she asked "Since when did you start speaking so much. And stop flirting with me."
He smirked and said "I have done so many things I never did before since I meet you and I am not flirting. I am just stating the truth."
She rolled her eyes and continued eating. After she was done he suggested "You should take a shower while I asked someone to clean the mess." He said indicating towards the mess he created in his anger.
She moved to the bathroom but stopped and stated "I don't have any spare clothes here."
He said "I will ask kashvi for some of her clothes. It will do for the night and you will get your new sets of clothes by the morning."
She didn't said anything and walked to the bathroom to take a relaxing shower.
He had servants to clean the mess and arranged clothes for her.
She was awkwardly standing there thinking where to sleeping now.
He suddenly smirked deciding to tease her a little.
His next words made her entire face pale in horror "It's our first night, Aarohi. You forgot that already?"
