I don't have exam today so I thought to read your comments. And just read your requests for new chapter. And I just can't deny when you are requesting so much 😭😭.

Aashrit looked at the lines made on her thighs. His hand itched to touch them. His finger traced the scar as his eyes reddened in anger. Just the fact that she was in so much pain made his blood boil in anger. He looked up at her in anger and said with clenched jaw and red eyes "Who did this?"

Meera's heart raced on hearing him and she was scared to lose him because of her past she took deep breaths before letting the truth out "I did this." She said in a low voice.

Aashrit's heart stopped listening to her. He took some deep breaths to control his anger and held her chin "Bachha ......... What made you do this?"

Tears left her eyes as she remembered all those memories but soon found herself engulfed in a tight hug. Aashrit hugged her tight and caressed her back while she cried in his embrace.

"Everyone Aashrit ji. Everyone in my life. No one loved me except Dadu. They all either used me or tortured me." She said with tears.

Aashrit took her in his lap and caressed her back while she cried "I hate it Aashrit ji. I never used to cry and now I cry every other moment. I feel pathetic." She said crying on his chest.

" Tell me everything about your past baby. And I'll remove every trace of those who hurt you." He said kissing her cheeks.

"I hate everyone Aashrit ji. I am not a good person. I hate my dadi who always blamed me for no reason. I hate my tauji who always made me feel like a burden. I hate my taiji who treated me like a servant. I hated my school friend who took advantage of my helping nature. I hate my college classmates who treated me like a shit. I hate everyone." She cried hugging him.

She looked up at him " Pull me from that hell Aashrit ji. Make me yours completely please." She said looking at his eyes, holding his face in her hand.

"You are mine completely but not today. Not until I make those people regret their decision to hurt my wife."He said kissing her forehead.

Meera cried hugging him when Aashrit spoke again "Is there anything else I need to know about your life?" He asked caressing her back while thinking about how to torture those people.

Meera nodded her head not saying a word.

"Are you comfortable sharing it with me?" He asked again.

Meera nodded again.

"Do you want to share it right now?" He asked Meera shook her head in no and hugged him tightly.

Aashrit kissed her forehead and let his lips linger there "I am always there for you. Tell me when you feel comfortable." He said and Meera slept in his embrace crying her heart out.

NEXT DAY

Meera woke up early and left to take a shower while Aashrit was still sleeping. Aashrit's sleep was disturbed when Meera's phone rang. He looked at the phone and cut the call on seeing an unknown number.

But her phone rang again and he woke up with an irritated expression.

He shouted for Meera from the room only"Meera, your phone is ringing."

Only to hear an instant reply "Attend it please."

He attended the call to let the other person know about Meera's absence. But before he could speak something, he heard an irritated voice full of anger

"You bitch!!!!! How dare you to cut my call?" The caller shouted.

Aashrit raged on hearing the tone and the words of the man

"You bitch!! What did I tell you? I told you to break up with your boyfriend but you didn't listen to me. Now I am giving you time of 1 day to think about your decision. I am sending a video, check it and let me know your thoughts." The caller said with a chuckle and cut the call.

Aashrit looked at the phone in his hand and then looked at the bathroom where his wife was taking a shower. He was enraged at the thought of her being threatened by someone and the fact that she didn't tell him was enough to make his veins burst with anger.

Soon, he heard a ping on her phone, and without any second thought, he opened the phone. He looked at the video sent by the same number and his blood boiled in anger.

After some minutes, Meera came out of the wardrobe ready for college only to see her husband sitting on the bed in his bed hair and only in trousers. She walked towards him with a smile but her smile flattened when Aashrit looked up at her with his red eyes, jaw clenched, fist tightened and her phone in his hand.

"Aashrit ji." She stuttered scared of the outcome.

"Ravi Sharma , Arjun Kaushik." He said those two names and Meera's feet stuck to the ground.

Her breath raged on thinking about the dark past she was hiding in her heart.

"I trust you, Meera. But I am enraged at the fact that I didn't know that someone was causing you harm and you didn't even tell me about this." He said walking towards her " he sent a video of your previous college. I want to know everything." He said giving her phone back and showing the video he just watched.

Meera looked at the phone and her phone slipped from her hand seeing the video.

"I am ready to give you as much time you want Meera but for now I am going to handle those bastards my way." He said and moved towards the bathroom but stopped by Meera.

"It happened in my previous college." She said and Aashrit stopped at his place and turned back to look at her.

Meera turned to look at him and decided it was the right time to let him know everything about her life.

I was in the final year of my graduation. I was doing graduation in microbiology. It is a fun subject but more than that it's just a degree I want to achieve just to get out of my family torture. I was going towards my next class when someone collided with me and I fell on the floor and my elbow got hit by the floor. I looked at my elbow and it had blood on it.

I was so engrossed in my pain that I didn't notice a hand touching mine and noticing my bruise. I looked up at the hand and found Arjun looking at me with a saddened expression. My heart skipped a beat on seeing him. He has been my crush since I took admission. He was the most handsome man in our university and also the son of the Vice Chancellor. I noticed his lips forming in a pout and blowing on my wound. I looked at his hand flexing with the way he was holding mine, his eyes focused on my elbow, creases of worry etched on his face.

He suddenly looked up at me and I quickly averted my gaze

and avoided meeting his eyes which was the most favorite thing of mine on his face.

"Are you fine?" He said and I nodded avoiding the pain in my hand.

"Gosh girl, blood is flowing out of it and you are saying it's fine." He said hold my wrist and dragged me towards the medical room.

There he aided my wound making my heart flutter at his care. While leaving, he took my phone number saying that he won't be at peace until he knows that I am fine.

And as he left the medical room, I put my palm on my mouth and screamed in excitement.

The Arjun Kaushik talked to me and aided my wound. It must be a dream. I have been in love with him for the past year and today

he noticed me finally and even took my number.

That night I got a message from him asking about my health and we started talking on the phone daily.

It's been 3 months since we have talked on the phone but not once we talked in real life. We used to share greetings and sometimes he used to gift me some things hiding from others but never met like any other couple. When I asked him about the same he said that he has many female followers and he doesn't want anyone to hurt me just because of him and that's why he maintains distance from me in college and I understand him completely.

But one day he said he wanted to meet me and called me into a class which usually stays empty. As I walked through the corridor to the last room, my heart was racing because of the nervousness of meeting him for the first time since we started talking or maybe because it was a deserted corridor and it was giving me a bad feeling.
