________________________________

Preet is smiling brightly and her face is glowing naturally. Her hand is moving as she is knotting Veer's tie. This becomes their thing. Preeti helps him with his tie everyday.

"You are looking happy today," Veer asked after wearing his cufflinks.

Preet lookup with the same glowing face and shook her head,

"It's not like this. I always stay like this,"

She places her palms against his chest as she is done with his tie.  Veer looks at her face then his eyes stare into her hazel ones intensely.

"But you are looking different today. I mean you are looking beautiful," he said in a low deep voice making her heart run miles.

But suddenly she playfully frowns her face and said,

"Did I not look beautiful daily, huh?"

Veer suddenly panicked thinking she got him wrong and feeling bad.

"What? No…"

"No? I am not?" she asked dramatically, making him nod his head.

"I mean yes," he again said in panic. His brain is not working.

"Are you agreeing with me?!" she exclaimed with a fake gasp, enjoying his funny and scared expression.

"No no…you are getting me wrong. I mean to say to you look beautiful everyday," He said while Preet giggled at him.

"Why are you laughing?" He frowned, his eyes looking cute.

"I know, Veer. I am just pulling your leg," she told him with a wide smile and squeezed his cheek turning them red.

He looked at her happy face and suddenly slammed her back against the wall beside the dressing table. Caging her between his body and wall, he gently held her neck from the back. He pulled her face closer to his with a gentle jerk touching his nose with her.

"My wife is getting naughty, huh?" he whispers huskily, making butterflies dance inside her stomach.

"you enjoy troubling your husband, huh?" he again asked, decreasing the distance between their faces.

She slowly shook her head and bit her lips hiding her smile.

She gasped in surprise because suddenly he bit her nose.

"Use word wifey," he ordered and then kissed her nose softly.

"N..no" she breathed out while trying to control her crazy heartbeats.

"You should, love…" he said, giving her his charming smile which melted her heart.

"I also started to enjoy troubling my wife. You know how?"

Her chest is moving furiously due to her heavy breathing hearing his soothing husky and dark voice.

She again shook her head, unable to let out her voice due to their proximity.

"You are really naughty," he chuckled lightly, soothing her heart as his laughing sounds like music.

She looks into his eyes with love and adoration. She loves when he smiles or laughs which is very rare.

Unconsciously her gaze fell on his lips. She looks up at his eyes which turn intense realizing what she is thinking.

She placed her lips on his cold one and started kissing him slowly. Her hands move to his hair before pulling him down at her height.

Veer closed his eyes, feeling the softness and warmth of her lips. His hand fist her hair gently while the other hand cups her face to deepen the kiss.

He tilted her head and kissed her deeply. Their lips are moving furiously against each other.

Preet's phone suddenly started ringing in her trouser but they both were so busy ravishing each other's lips that the sound didn't reach their ears.

Preet pulled away due to the vibration of her phone while patting for air and looked at Veer who was also breathing heavily.

Veer gently wiped her lips with his thumb while looking at her with soft eyes. He then softly perked her lips and her forehead lovingly.

"I am downstairs. Come after taking your call and…tidy up your look, " he whispered the last part with his sexy smirk, making her shy.

Smiling lightly at her flushing face, he went out after setting his hair properly.

Preet quickly turned around and looked in the mirror. Her face turned more red than it was already looking at her messy condition. Her face is totally red like Apple, her lips are swollen and not to forget her messy hair.

She turns crazy when it comes to him. She can't stop herself near him. He is so warm, soft and she felt protected in his embrace. His touch is rough yet feels tender.

"Stop messing with my heart, Mr Veer Singh Rajvansh," and then she sighs, looking at his huge portrait in their room and then giggling cutely.

"Avni have this juice and I am not going to listen to your tantrums. Come on," Preet said in a strict tone, handling her glass of orange juice.

Avni makes faces as she doesn't like juices but then pouts sadly looking at Preet. Letting out a sigh of defeat, Avni silently finishes her juice.

"Good girl. Now I should leave for work," Preet lovingly said and went inside the kitchen to place the empty glass and then run out of the house in a hurry.

Damini was looking at them from the living room and a small curve formed on her face watching the scene.

Urmila is sitting with her and chopping dry fruits to make ladoos for Avni.  She is flying on clouds in happiness after Avni gives good news to everyone.

"Urmila, I was thinking of naming the Barkat property to Avni and Aarav's baby. This baby brings so much happiness in Rajvansh Villa with him/her," Damini said.

Urmila stops her work and looks at her. Her smile dropped after hearing her but she quickly covers it and gives her fake smile.

"It's a good thought but Ma..Should Aarav's baby get the Raein Sheesh Mahal being the first child in this generation?" she asked but her voice slowed down looking at Damini's glare.

"That was the last memory of my Ranveer. And now only Veer has the right to it. I never differentiate between Aarav, Anaya and Veer. And they will get their rightful share in Rajvansh's property. And don't forget it. And I suggest you, Urmila…think before doing something under others' influence. Some sweet words can be poisonous," Damini said looking into her eyes with a hard and firm look.

Urmila didn't say anything to her and just nodded her head slowly.

Walking inside her room, Urmila closed the door and sat on the bed. She fist the bed sheet tightly while breathing hard. Suddenly she let out a loud scream and threw the lamp on the floor from the side table.

"Veer! Veer! VEERRR!! All she knows is that Veer! First he ate his parents and now wants to destroy my son's life. He is nothing but a black shadow in my life, a bad omen," she said with so much hatred and disgust in her voice.

If it is in her hand she would have thrown him out of this Rajvansh Villa and their life. But her husband and own son are her real evil.

"If it is not enough now his child, who didn't even come into this world, will do the same. My grandchild will run behind him like a beggar. Like his father made my Aarav his servant," she is yelling while throwing things here and there.

"Then do something before it's too late, Urmi," comes Sumitra's voice. Urmila turned to her before she started crying loudly.

Sumitra hugs her and pat her back to calm her down.

"Crying would do nothing, Urmi," she told her.

"Ma, what should I do? Veer will destroy my family. He will destroy everything," she cried in her arms.

"Shh…don't cry. I am here with you. I will let anyone do injustice with Aarav. I will do everything for your and Aarav's happiness. Don't worry, Urmi," she sweetly said while smirking evilly.

Night time

"What about Mr Ahuja's deal? I ask you to send the contract details. Okay. When do I have to leave for Singapore? Hmm, Is the presentation read-" Veer is talking with his secretary in the balcony when Preet comes and hugs him from back. He tense for a second before he relaxed in her embrace.

"I will call later if needed. Good night," he hung up the call and kept his phone in his trousers pocket.

"What happens?" he asked slowly, placing his hand over her small ones as they stayed in the same position.

"Are you going to Singapore?" She whispered.

He smiles slightly before pulling her in front and looks at her face which looks sad. He placed his hands on the railing on her either side, caging her between him and the glass railing.

"Next week," he told her, staring at her face. She gave him a forceful smile and nodded.

"When will you be back?" She asked in a low tone while her hands automatically went to his neck and started fidgeting with his shirt buttons.

He chuckled at her question and wrapping his one hand around her waist he slams her against his body gently.

"I didn't even go there. And you are asking about coming," she shrugged off her shoulders while her eyes fixed on his shirt button that she was closing and opening again and again.

"Look at me, Biwi. I don't think I am that ugly to not look at me," she smiled and looked at his face.

"You are the most beautiful person in my eyes," she said with adoration, making his heart jump in happiness.

He never thinks or cares much about his look in general but hearing compliments from her. He felt proud of his face for the first time.

"Thank you so much but Don't you think you should use handsome, dashing, charming words instead of beautiful," He said with a confused face.

She smile cutely and said casually

"It's the same thing, Veer,"

"Then I can say you are also handsome," he teases with a smirk. She looks at him with narrow eyes and slaps his chest.

"No!!" she said but his smirk widened.

"But, it's the same thing, Preet," he said with fake innocence.

"Don't trouble me," she said with a cute angry face and slightly pushed back. As she turned to go inside, he quickly grabbed her wrist before picking her up in his arm making her squeal loudly.

"Veer! What are doing?" she asked, looking at him with her big eyes.

But instead of answering her, he kisses her lips and pulls away within a few seconds.

"Shh..don't talk," his voice came deep as said looking into her big eyes.

She bit her lower lips feeling butterflies in her tummy while looking back into his ocean-blue eyes.

He walked inside their room while her heart was thudding loudly at an unnatural pace in nervousness and excitement.

But instead of going toward their bed, he started going to the study room. She frowns her eyebrows in confusion.

She makes her sit on the table and stand in front of her.

"I have something for you," he asked softly, "wait a minute,.."

Saying he went toward the drawer placed behind his chair. He pulls out a file from it and comes back to where she is sitting with a curious face.

"What is it?" she asked as he forwarded that toward her.

"See yourself,"

Preet took the file from him and started reading the content. Suddenly her confused face turns into shock. She looked at him, tears shining in her tears.

"Veer…" she whispered, unable to say anything further.

"This is for you. You have an equal share in my property as my legal wife. And if something happens to me in future everything will belong to you. My everything is now yours. I know I hurt you so much and even if I want I can't turn things back but I will try my best not to let you feel unwanted and unloved again. Now you are everything I have and want. I wanted to give you everything you deserve. I may not love you but trust me when I say I adore you, respect you and trust you with everything," He said with so much emotion in his voice. He wants her to know what she meant to him now. Now that they are slowly getting comfortable with each other and maybe in the near future, they will take further steps in their relationship and become involved in physical relations.

So before they got deeper into their relationship he wanted to tell her what he felt for her in real. What place she has in his life. How lucky and happy he is to have her. He wanted to show her instead of exclaiming through words.

She pulls him to herself and tightly hugs him feeling overwhelmed hearing his heart melting words. How can someone be so sweet. If she loved him before now she started loving more than anything in this universe. This is what she always wants and craves for. A true sincere life partner.

She never asks for a lover who loves her passionately, and money, luxury, gems, nothing at all. But a person who cares for her, who respects her. And God gives her this sweetest man to her.

She pulled her face and looked into his beautiful eyes which are filled with softness.

She cupped his face lovingly and smiled with happy tears in her eyes.

"You know you are the best husband in this universe not because you gave this property to me but because you are really the best. I don't want anything except you, my Veer. Your words are enough for me. All this is nothing for me in front of you. I can stay forever in your warm embrace. I love you, I adore you, Veer. All I want is you, me and us," She softly said with tears softly caressing his cheeks with her thumbs.

Veer smiles at her and kisses her forehead before joining their forehead.

"I know but can't a poor husband spoil her rich independent wife a little," she chuckled at his teasing.

"Of course, he can, my poor husband,"

He looked at her and felt peace seeing a beautiful smile on her beautiful face.

She also stares at him, feeling his intense gaze on her. Seeing him lessening the distance between their faces. As their noses brush with each other, she closes her eyes with a shy smile.

A little curve comes on his lips seeing her closed eyes and loud breathing. Not wanting to torture himself and her, he places his lips against her. He didn't move his lips to see her reaction but she amused him. He felt her moving her small soft lips against his.

Their bodies unconsciously come closer and stick to each other. Her arms fist his silky locks showing her desperation. While he held her curvy waist tightly from the sides and his fingers were squeezing it gently.

They are kissing passionately letting their emotions take control.

Preet moans in pleasure pushing his face more into her and deepening the kiss. He groaned not getting enough of her lips and bite her lower lips hard.

They break the kiss and pant looking into each other's eyes before again latching their lips hungrily.

He stands between her legs and pulls her more making her lower touch his. She felt shivers running through her body and moans into his mouth.

The heat rose in their body and slowly the fire of desire started burning them. Their bodies turn wet and sweaty. Her loud breathing and kissing sounds echo in the study room.

Veer removed his lips from her lips leaving them swollen and red, and started peppering kisses on her neck and throat. She tilted her head giving him more access to her skin.

She is moaning in pleasure as his lips pleasuring her. Her hand on the back of his head pushing his face more into her neck. She felt her toes curling as she felt something in her lower region but it was good. Too good.

His hands slipped inside her t-shirt and started caressing her waist softly. His lips again travel upward while caressing her soft skin with his lips lovingly.

He squeezed her waist a little hard as he slammed his lips against her swollen one. He just loved her lips, they are so soft and delicate like a flower. But he loves it more when her lips dance with his in a deep, intense, passionate kiss. Igniting the fire of pleasure inside him.

Sucking her lips hard, he pulled away and placed his sweaty forehead against her. They breathe hard and furiously, panting for air with closed eyes and slightly parted lips.

After a minute, he opens his eyes and looks at her, who is already staring at him with love and adoration in her beautiful eyes. His heart skips a beat just by looking at her eyes for the first time. Her soft gaze is making him weak.

"Don't look at me like this, Preet," he whispered in his hoarse voice gazing his thumb lightly on her cheekbone.

"Like what?" she whispered back with a hint of smile in her tone.

"Like I am everything to you. Just don't look at me," He said softly but his voice still came deep.

"Why?" she asked, smiling slightly.

"I will fall in love with you if you keep looking at me like this," Her heart stopped for a second as she heard him.

It may sound firmly and cheesy to her if she heard it said by someone else but coming from him she felt so good and felt butterflies in her tummy doing the Bhangra.

He is too adorable for her weak heart. She wanted to kiss the hell out of him.

"You are too cute, Veer," he glared at her, getting offended as she called him cute.

What?

He didn't build all these muscles and abs just to be called cute from his wife.

"What? Why are you glaring? I am telling you the truth. See even now you are looking so cute with a frown,"  she teased him further.

"Not. Or-" she cut him with her giggle.

"Or what Mr Rajvansh?" she asked, wrapping her arms around him. Raising her eyebrow playfully.

"You wanna see, Mrs Rajvansh," he also plays alone with her and smirks.

"Hmm," she hummed with a smile while lightly brushing her fingers on his nape creating a ticklish effect.

Suddenly let out a loud giggle as his hand, which was caressing the side of her waist, started tickling her. She squirmed and laughed loudly as his finger tickled her.

"Now say I am cute," he said smiling, seeing her laughing with tears in her eyes.

"c..uut..ahhaha!!" she laughed and tried to stop him from touching and tickling her.

"Stoo…ahaha..op!!"

Her loud laughing sound echoed in the room.

"I will stop but you have to say I am hot not cute," he said stopping while letting her breath.

She breathed furiously and shook her head.

"No you are cu…NO!! AhahHaHa…ok hahaha. St..ahahaha…s stop!" She refuses to tease him but as he moves her finger in front of her eyes as if he is going to tickle, she shouts while giggling as his finger tickles her neck.

He tickles her but stops quickly seeing her choking on her breath due to laughing so much.

She fell on his chest feeling tired after the tickling session. She hugged him and closed her eyes to calm her fast breathing.

He wraps his arm around her and softly caresses her back. He kissed her crown a few times before looking at her face. He smiles seeing her close eyes. He swiftly took her in his arms and started walking toward their room.

Instead of flinching or squealing at his sudden action, she just tightens her around him before relaxing herself in his arms.

He placed her on the bed gently and covered her with a duvet. As he started going away, she held his sleeve and opened her eyes.

"Stay," she asked in a sleepy voice.

"I am coming after changing my clothes. You sleep," he told her, brushing her hair back.

She nodded and freed his sleeve.

"Come fast," she murmured and closed her eyes.

He quickly took a shower and wore his night clothes before slipping inside the cover beside his wife. He carefully covers them thinking she is sleeping but she quickly snuggles into him feeling his presence.

He silently chuckles at her antics and yanks her gently toward him, wrapping his arm around her waist.

Preet gave everyone their morning tea and juice to Avni. She turned around and was going toward the kitchen when she heard a loud breaking sound. She flinched and swiftly turned to see what happened.

Everyone is as shocked as her while Urmila is standing beside Avni and glaring at her with hatred. Then her eyes move to the glass piece shattered on the floor with spilled juice.

Everyone stood up in their place looking at Urmila. While Anaya kept sitting in her place least bothered with them.

Avni is looking scared but Aarav quickly pulls her toward him and at his mother in disbelief.

"Seems like we have a new drama coming up, good," Anaya whispered to herself, rolling her eyes with a sigh.

"What was that Urmila? Are you mad? What if Avni gets hurt due to your stupid act?" Damini scolds her but her eyes are still drilling holes on Preet.

"That's why I did that, Ma. There is a papaya seed in Avni's juice. And I didn't need to tell you what that meant," Damini's eyes widened in shock and fear.

"What?!" she exclaimed looking at Urmila then Avni.

Preet realized the meaning of Urmila's words and she herself was shocked. Pregnant women shouldn't give papaya. They are harmful for the baby and can cause miscarriage.

Her body shook with fear thinking what would have happened if Avni drinks that juice.

Avni also gets shocked and unconsciously places her palm on her flat belly. She started shivering badly at the thought of something bad happening to her baby.

Anaya was also shocked as she is a medical student.

While Aarav and Veer are clueless not knowing what is happening and why everyone is so shocked.

"What's wrong, Dadi?" Aarav asked.

"Papaya is prohibited to Pregnant women. It can cause miscarriage if consumed by such women," she told him, still in shock.

Now both Veer and Aarav got the shock. Veer instantly looks at Preet who is in tears and looking at Avni. Then look at Avni who is in Aarav's arms as he is trying to calm her down.

"What made juice today?" Damini's hard voice echoes in the hall. Her eyes filled on Preet who gave juice to Avni.

Preet looked at her with a fearful face and gulped.

"Dadi…" she stuttered in fear seeing her hard gaze.

"I made the juice," she told her, looking at her with her innocent teary eyes.

"I always knew that, Ma. She is jealous of my Avni and her baby. Because she isn't the one having a baby and giving the first heir to Rajvansh. It's not my grandchild's fault that you couldn't conceive till now. You can't see my Avni and Aarav happy, huh, … " Preet shook her head as a lump formed in her throat hearing such cruel words from her.

"Choti Ma, you are getting her wrong. She can never do that. Everyone knows that," Veer said in his emotionless voice but worry for his wife didn't go unnoticed from anyone's eyes.

"Urmila, don't talk nonsense," Damini also said and for the first time took Preet's side.

Preet smiled slightly and wiped her tears and went toward Avni.

"Avni..I swea-" Avni hugged her tight and shook her head.

"You don't have to say anything Bhabhu. I know you could never think about hurting my baby. I trust you," Aarav also gives her an assuring smile as he is standing behind Avni.

Preet smiles at him and comes out of the hug. Avni look at her heart and wipe her tears,

"Don't cry, Badi Mumma. Baby will be sad seeing his beautiful Badi Mumma in tears," she playfully said to her, making her smile brightly.

Veer looked at her smiling smile and sighs in relief. Her tears hurt him.

Aarav hug from side and said,

"I am sorry on behalf of Mom,"

"Don't be, Aari. She is just worried for Avni and the baby. I can understand her fear. Our little one is so precious to everyone, " she softly said. But she knows somewhere her words were too cruel to forget.

"Ma, I can't trust this girl now." suddenly Urmika said after watching how everyone is siding with her and trusting her blindly.

"Mom! Stop it now," Aarav said, getting frustrated with her baseless hatred for Preet and Veer.

"Aarav, you don't speak in between. I know what I am doing. I just don't want Preet near Avni," she declared firmly.

"Then Preet will not do anything from now on. I am sorry Avni but Choti Ma wants this then…." Veer said, looking at Urmila with his cold face.

"Veer!! What are you saying? Avni can't do work in this condition," Veer glared at Preet and gave her a look to shut up.

"We have servants for work. Avni doesn't have to do anything. And Choti Ma is here for her to look into her needs,"

"Bhai is right, Bhabhi. You don't have to worry. I am here. I don't want anyone to speak nonsense about you again. About staying with Avni, you have every right to spend with her and our baby. She or he will be your child as much as our, ," Aarav said, looking at Mother.  He turned toward Veer and nodded at his Brother.

"I will personally look into the matter regarding this incident. Whoever is behind this will see the worst of me," he warned before leaving from there with Avni.

Damini looked at Urmila and shook her head for creating unnecessary drama instead of searching for the real culprit.

Veer holds Preet's hand and drags her outside. She silently follows him.

Anaya looks surprised seeing Veer and Preet like this.

"Wow! Looks like something going on between them," she whispered to herself and smirked devilishly before going to her room to collect her things as she is getting late for her collage.
