Reyansh was heavily drunk when he returned home. He saw Samaira sleeping near the couch. Maybe she slept while waiting for him. He scooped her up in his arms and took her to their shared bedroom. He changed and slept beside her while securing her in those arms from which she should be protected.

Samaira woke up tangled in his arms. She was glad that he didn't touched her last night. She was conscious but pretended otherwise. She moved his arms and legs from her, got up and went to do her morning business.

After she was ready she went to do make something for him. She knew he might have a severe headache so she kept lemon juice on bed table.

She felt someone hugging her from behind. She was frightened. She didn't moved and continued her work.

He snuggled more into her neck leaving hickeys wherever he kissed her. His hands went under her dress assaulting her body. She squirmed trying to get out but he just tightened his holds on her.

Due to her squirming Reyansh got angry and turned her towards him. He took a good look at her face. She was terrified. She already stopped struggling. He removed one of his hand grabbed her jaw. He tilted it upwards to get more access to her neck.

He was panting a bit. Samaira didn't knew what to do. She once again tried to fight and scream but just his one hard slap on her face was enough to shut her up.

" Did you already forgot rules?" He asked her while smacking her legs which brought back all that horrible memories back in her head. "Do you want me to remind you again?" He asked with a warning in his tone.

"No.." Samaira wasn't able to say more than this.

"Good"

He saw uncooked breakfast behind her then took her from there towards HIS room. This was first time since she came here when he wanted her during daytime.

"Please..please.. don't" Samaira was pleading but he paid no heed as usual. He threw her on bed and showed her once again about how cruel beast he is.

After he was done he ordered her for breakfast. Samaira went back but this time she was thinking something else.

Whenever he used her she tried to picture Idhant. Ofcourse they never had sex. Idhant never asked for it. He wanted to wait for their wedding night on a decorated bed. But fate had other plans for them.

Samaira remembered her words that she will never love and marry anyone else other than him. Now she was married to someone else whom she didn't knew and could never love. She was sure Idhant will never help her. She had to help herself and beg for her forgiveness beacause she was also sure that he will never believe her again.

With determined thoughts she did everything as he asked. They were sitting on the breakfast table alone.

"I wanted to rest today"

"Why?"

" I can't walk,I have severe pain in my legs and body. Please just one day."

" Get use to it."

"Please."

She was on the verge of tears. He looked at her up and down and she was really very weak and needed some serious body rest.

"Ok, but don't make it habit. This is your last rest."

She nodded and he glared at her. "Yes"

They both finished and he stood up for leaving. She went behind him as per his instructions. When they neared door he turned towards her gave her a kiss.

"Ask maids for anything you want, don't do anything stupid." He left with that.

As soon as he left she went back to her room asking maids to not disturb her. She laid on bed with quilt above her face. She wasn't sleeping she was pretending to be so. She spent enough time in captivity at brothel to know that there are hidden cameras everywhere.

She was thinking about a escape plane from here. She had to be very careful. Reyansh didn't trust her yet. To escape she had to first go out somehow. She remembered him once mentioning someone's marriage on a call with someone. She could may be ask him to take her with him.

With multiple escape plans in her mind old memories made their way to her brain. Giving her a painfully beautiful smile. She remembered the time when she thought she was going to be the most happiest person on earth but in real that was the start of her downfall, of her sorrows and unending shame, pain, regrets and anger.

She was in college canteen with her friends. It was a group of 9 students. 3 boys and 6 girls. Shanzay was the latest addition to their group but some how no one felt like that. Others were Aslam, Riya, Aarush, Samaira, Dhruv, Preesha, saniya and Ananya who was missing today.

They were all sitting and chatting together. " Onkar baby, I was in my class Jaan, how can I call you during classes?" it was Saniya trying to make her dumb boyfriend understand who was being his usual grumpy self.

"Saniya, you should just breakup with him. He is being unreasonable" Riya advised her while eyeing Arush. "yes, he is just too noisy" surprisingly these words came from Dhruv who actually wanted to monitor Preesha's every activity.

Every one turned to him at once and gaped. passing there comment. "I am just concerned for her, and I never disturb her when she is with her friends."

"Really" came three voice at once and at that moment every one noticed that Samaira wasn't participating in their conversation.

Pressha elbowed her. "Hello, to you to"

"With whom are you chatting? " screamed their eyes which were directed at her. She quickly kept her phone back and replied no one. They didn't buy her lie nd kept asking which she dodged. She wasn't ready to tell them about Idhant when he wasn't her boyfriend.

After attending few classes she left from college to their decided cafe shop where she was supposed to finally meet Idhant's girlfriend.
