Page 32 of The Royal Beast & His Queen

"He says the same about you", Isha said with a giggle...

"That BEAST changed my little sister, she is his wife more now, my innocent sister is nowhere found", Ranveer muttered to himself...

"What are you murmuring to yourself bhai ?", Isha asked raising her brows in confusion...

"I said now you look his wife more, my sister less", Ranveer said glaring at his sister making her laugh at her brother's jealousy...

"I was just pulling your bhayyu... Ragini is very lucky to have you... You are the best... and I'm so happy that you chose Ragini as my bhabhi...", Isha said with a smile, Ranveer too smiled and about to hug her but she moved back... "But that doesn't mean I'm not angry anymore", Isha completed and Ranveer huffed... "You really want my forgiveness ?", Isha asked, Ranveer nodded his head vigorously...

"Okay then, tell me what's bothering you ? You look as if something is eating you from within ? Now that you told me you are not purposely avoiding me, What are you busy with ? I'm sure it's not your work", Isha said, even before Ranveer gave the excuse of work.

"We'll discuss that later, but for now, let's concentrate on the problem at hand... Why did you agree to the marriage ? You understand its a very big thing in a royal family right ? Especially in a family like yours ?", Ranveer said and Isha sighed.

Her husband believed in blood and lineage, he did not discriminate based on it but he wanted a princess for Avyan, a girl from Royal lineage, but she knew he wouldn't compromise on that girl's values and morals. And Abhyansh wouldn't show it but he is very protective about his brother... He can't see him suffer and god forbid, if Avyan suffers in this marriage, Abhyansh would never forgive her...

"I understand bhai but you really think if the decision was in my hands, I would take it without consulting Rana sa ?", Isha asked and Ranveer looked at her waiting for her to explain... "Till Iwent there, Avyan had already given his word... I had only two choices, either maintain Avyan's dignity or insult him and his word, I would have done it even but Avyan said he likes Anshi... We both vowed to protect Anshi and her happiness forever, I promised Avyan I'll set things right and that little brother-in-law of mine used it against me...", Isha said pouting angrily, Ranveer chuckled, even after all that, she can't really get mad at Avyan, her this love for the Ranawat family overwhelmed Ranveer. His sister is the best creation of god, a pure soul... "How can Abhyansh Singh Ranawat's wife and Amar Rajput's daughter break her promise ? So, I had to do what I did", Isha said

"Ranawat will understand for sure... He might get angry at first, but I'm confident he will hear you at least", Ranveer said ruffling his sister's hair...

"It's not just about blood or lineage bhai for Rana sa... It's about his protectiveness towards Avyan... He won't show his love for his brother in front of anyone except for me... He loves Avyan a lot... He can't see him in distress, I'm afraid bhai... afraid of everything falling apart", Isha said, and Ranveer side hugged his sister understanding her worries, she is not saying it out loud but she is clearly afraid of their marriage failing and everyone blaming her for it. She is more worried for Avyan than herself or the blame on her head.

"Ishu... don't think much... even if you have refused, Avyan would have gotten married to Anshi", Ranveer said, and he thought it would shock Isha but she sighed in distress, not in surprise or shock.

She knew her brother-in-law in and out. He respects his brother and her(Isha) more than anything, he could give away his life for Abhyansh but the Avyan she has seen from the time he returned from Anshi's home is different. He had a very soft heart, and till date, he never became the reason for anyone's pain, but now even imagining his one act destroyed a girl's life, he was drowned in guilt. And the worst part, he wasn't even right in accusing her since she is innocent. He tried to conceal his pain and hurt from her but he couldn't, that's one more reason she approached Anuj when Ranveer refused to disclose details.

Avyan was determined to protect Anshi from the narrow-minded society and their tortures on the poor soul. He wanted to take responsibility of her happiness for life, and as much as it is a disgrace to think that they live in such a society, there are hardly men in their society that accept a girl after a broken marriage. He was afraid of her future and more than anything, his heart and its feelings for the girl are another major reason. For the first time in Anshi's home just a few hours back, she saw rebellion in Avyan's eyes and she was scared of him taking any stupid step in the spur of the moment. So she took the responsibility on her head instead.

"Did he say that he would do something of that sort ?", Ranveer asked looking at his sister's casual reaction

"He didn't tell me in words, but his eyes said it all... As much as Avyan is a soft-hearted person, he is very strong-headed and determined. I don't want Avyan to take any wrong step, so...", she started

"So, you became the scapegoat, seriously Ishu ? Don't you have brains at all ?", Ranveer scolded his sister...

"Bhai... it is not like that... I had to protect Avyan... he is like my child, if I let him take Rana sa's anger, then my existence is a waste, and if you see, I was the root of this problem, so it's only right to take the ownership and solve it", Isha said and Ranveer glared at his stupid sister for blaming herself for something Natasha and Ashley Parker did.

"Okay, I understand your emotions, but how will you control your raging bull of a husband", Ranveer asked and Isha slapped his arm...

"Don't call him that...", Isha said angrily...

"Now I can't even call nicknames to my adoring and sweet brother-in-law, huh", Ranveer said too sweetly and Isha acted as if gagging...

"Ewww... You sound so fake bhai", Isha said and Ranveer laughed...

"I'm being fake, do you really think I can call your BEAST of a husband adorable and sweet... not even at gunpoint", Ranveer said and Isha shook her head. "Okay... Let's not talk about him and spoil my mood, come to the point", Ranveer added and Isha raised her eye brows, technically the main point they have to discuss too revolved around her husband... "Okay, what I mean is let's not talk about Ranawat's character traits, but the problem at hand", Ranveer said and Isha nodded.

"I think he had an idea about the problem with Anshi", Isha said and Ranveer's eyes widened

"What the hell do you mean Ishu ? That BEAST would send a bullet in a parcel for me for letting things go out of hand", Ranveer said

"Shut up bhayyu... and stop calling him that... I don't like it...", Isha said and Ranveer huffed... "What I mean is Rana sa has an idea that Avyan and I were at Anshi's place", Isha said and Ranveer smirked

"Don't worry about that, I had sent the wrong location of you guys to him...", Ranveer said but with his sister's next words, the ground beneath him slipped. Abhyansh asked Ranveer to send a brief report on his family's whereabouts every 3 hours and since only Isha and Avyan from the family go out, Ranveer had to make a report of only those two.

"Bhai... I called Rana sa from Anshi's place", Isha said and Ranveer's eyes widened...

"What ?? Ishu, I was right, I would die one day helping you and your idiot brother-in-law... Now he will kill me for sending him the wrong report", Ranveer said holding his head

"Bhayyu...", Isha started
