"Bacha... What's wrong ? Ishu...", Ranveer called his sister getting worried sick for her...

"Where the hell have you been ? I thought she was with you ?", Abhyansh whisper yelled at his brother-in-law, he wanted to choke him for what he has done...

"She said she wanted to be alone from all these chaos, asked me to drop at Ragini's house, so I did", Ranveer said

"You didn't even check if she went inside huh ?", Abhyansh blamed his brother-in-law who looked away in guilt. "Pass me the salt", Abhyansh said and Ranveer looked at the way Abhyansh pointed, and he found the boxes of basic essentials there. He passed with a confused face, why was his brother-in-law maintaining a mini-home in the car ? A doctor kit, sphygmomanometer, glucometer and other basic equipment included that home kit.

"Why are you maintaining a mini-clinic in your car ?", Ranveer asked earning a glare from him.

"It did came to use now", Abhyansh answered and Ranveer understood that it's for his sister, of course, how stupid is he toeven ask that question. And not just in Abhyansh's car, the kit was present in every vehicle that belonged to Ranawats.

Abhyansh mixed the salt water and tried to make Isha drink with a spoon, she was unconscious and so she wasn't gulping the whole contents he is pouring, so he kept wiping the dropping liquid with his handkerchief. Ranveer took it from his hand and helped his brother-in-law wiping his sister's face and mouth from time to time.

Isha coughed the liquid out on Abhyansh's face when he was making her drink the 4th spoon. Ranveer's eyes widened thinking it would anger the beast, but he didn't even bother wiping it, instead he was focused on feeding his wife some more salt water, as Dr. Mrunalini did warn him that she might not take it in but asked him to keep feeding her, her blood pressure would catch up quick with salt water.

Ranveer pulled out the tissues from the tissue box beside and is about to wipe Abhyansh's face when he gave Ranveer a glare, which made Ranveer shake his head, Abhyansh snatched the tissues from his stupid brother-in-law's hand and wiped his face before continuing feeding his wife.

He again checked her BP and it seemed a bit better now. They soon reached Rana Mahal and thankfully, Dr. Mrunalini also reached there by then, otherwise Abhyansh looked like he would either cause clear destruction or faint from the amount of panic he is hiding inside him.

"Rani sa is now fine, Maharaj... No need to worry, she needs rest", Dr. Mrunalini said after treating Isha and putting her on a IV drip. Abhyansh kept staring at the needle when the doctor was pricking his wife's skin which even made Dr. Mrunalini nervous, but she successfully completed her job and is about to leave but Abhyansh asked her to stay back in the palace for the day and she obeyed.

After Dr. Mrunalini left to the guest room, Abhyansh called his men in the den to know what happened in there. He put the call on speaker so that Ranveer could also hear. His staff detailed him everything word to word, when they detailed the past, Ranveer's eyes reddened with pain, fury and sorrow while Abhyansh's did with fury, his wife had to handle this hard truth without him by her side, and it is his fault, she came to him with the hope that he would give her and her brother at least a benefit of doubt, if he did, they would have been together when Kailash Rajput sprouted this sh*t. This was why he didn't want his wife there when they dealt with Kailash.

"My ba***rd of a father would die 1000 deaths but still be breathing... that's the amount of suffering I want him to have", Ranveer muttered

"Not enough Rajput", Abhyansh said and Ranveer noticed his brother-in-law's beast form taking on... "I accept", he added and Ranveer understood what he was referring to, he now understood that Abhyansh was ready to play his part to get the truth out of Kailash Rajput.

"Let's go", Ranveer said but Abhyansh shook his head, he softly ruffled his wife's hair and Ranveer understood that they won't be leaving until Isha comes to consciousness and abuses her husband verbally, physically and in all other ways.

Ranveer saw his brother-in-law opening and closing his fists, he could also see his veins popping out and the nerve on his forehead visible, which only happens when he is extremely furious... And Ranveer expected him to break anything or everything or hurt himself to contain the anger since that anger is on himself for not listening to his wife but Abhyansh wasn't doing any of it, he was just sitting there looking at his wife.

"You are furious, just go and release some of your anger Ranawat...", Ranveer said

"I f**king promised your sister", Abhyansh said and Ranveer's eyes furrowed and soon realization hit him...

"Did she find out about your back injury ?", Ranveer asked and Abhyansh's teeth clinked, making Ranveer's assumptions correct.

God! that burn was brutal, Ranveer till date couldn't understand how could someone be so brutal to themselves, but he understood it was the BEAST's way of dealing with his fury & memory of hurting his wife.

"What did she say ?", Ranveer asked but he was in no mood to answer his brother-in-law's questions but he remembered her reaction, it was well... unexpected and unusual... It happened in their vacation...

Till then he always made sure to cover his back. Since they weren't getting intimate since her pregnancy revelation,Abhyanshdidn't has to do much to hide it. Though the doctor gave a subtle hint that they could do it but just be careful,Abhyanshavoided it as he knew his beast self wouldn't be satisfied with a gentle lovemaking, so he limited their sessions only to tending her, but that night his wife wanted him and the BEAST whose senses are always on high alert lose their light with one glance at his wife, she is capable of bringing him to his knees without doing much... Just the look in her eyes and he knew he had to get a taste of her, he had to be mindful and keep chanting to be gentle thorough out which is a huge task in itself as by just a look at his wife and his beast self would come out craving for her. In all this he had for a second forgotten about his back injury and that one second made his life miserable for the next one week.

"Ansh... What's this...", she asked him when her hand met his back where she felt it with her fingers, she was quick enough to notice expressions where in he was cursing himself... He couldbe cold faced and expressionless for the whole world but his wife could find those even when he is asleep.

She quickly got up and took a look at his back before he could stop her. A loud gasp left her mouth, her eyes widened. He quickly turned facing her but the damage was already done. He could see the different emotions that passed her face.

Abhyanshtook a notice of her face journey that turned from shock to anguish to agony to fury but he was afraid to approach her.

"Isha... It didn't hurt much", He said after thorough thinking of the right word to start with, but he failed badly.

"Why did you do it ?", she asked calmly but soon her pregnancy hormones kicked in and her welled up eyes soon turned into loud sobs. "WHY WOULD YOU DO IT", She cried trying to take a peak at his back but he quickly wore his t-shirt, making her wear his another shirt as her nak*d self is distracting him even in that nasty emotional turmoil they were in.

He tried to take her in his arms but she kept wiggling out of his embrace. She hated him at that moment and he knew it.

"Bacha... I'm so sorry... I tried hard to control but the thought of the pain I had inflicted upon you didn't let me stay sane at that moment, I had to experience that pain, 100 times more pain than you did, I thought maybe that would calm the fire inside me but it only intensified. Every ounce of pain the burn caused me only intensified my fury, even imagining that you bore that ache because of me didn't let me stop. I'm so sorry",Abhyanshwhispered, she got tired of wiggling and struggling in his arms, so she let him take her in his embrace, maybe that could calm her but no it didn't.

She still remembered the pain, that the watch burn on her wrist caused, it was terrible, if that was the case with a part of herwrist, she was scared to even imagine the pain and suffering he might have gone through while doing this. She would never forgive her husband for this.
