"Rana sa... please don't leave a mark, I'm wearing a round neck...", she said blushing, he kissed on the spot and stopped kissing her as he doesn't want to embarrass her...

"Okay, I'm leaving, Avyan will come in search of me if I don't go now", she said and he fisted his palms...

"He is too free with no work, I must look into the matter", he said and she glared at him...

"He is not free, he is making some time for the family, working hard with taking minimal breaks in the office, if he is loaded with work, it won't be good Rana sa, I'm telling you", she said and he raised his brows in amusement at her words, she looked down on realizing what she said, cursing herself inside...

"Yes your highness, whatever you say", he said bowing his head in front of her embarrassing her further, she hid her face in his chest making him chuckle...

Her phone rang and seeing Avyan's name, Abhyansh's smile turned into a frown... he took the call and put it on speaker... he cupped her mouth before she could speak anything...

"Bhabhi sa, where are you?? I'm waiting for an hour now... you said you'll be back in a minute, such a liar you are... I ate all the cutlets... don't blame me now... now say something", Avyan said, on getting a reply from his sister-in-law...

"Umm...um...um..", she is trying to free herself from her husband's tight grip and trying to remove his palm but it's futile...

"Bhabhi sa... are you there??", Avyan asked, Abhyansh smirked, Isha understood what he is about to do, she shook her head, but he didn't listen to her...

"I see you have many complaints regarding my liar wife Yuvraj... why don't you come to me to resolve the issue??", Abhyansh said, and Avyan's heart dropped hearing his brother, that too his extremely cold tone indicating his anger...

"B... Bhai sa... No... Bhai sa... forgive me, please...Sorry Bhabhi sa...", Avyan apologized, he can't even hang up as it's rude to do it for the king... he cursed his Bhabhi sa...

Abhyansh loosened his grip on her mouth, and she freed from his grip glaring at him...

"Avyan, I'm coming downstairs, bye...", she said hanging up, to reduce her brother-in-law's worry... "Rana sa, you can't do that... he is so scared of you...", she whined glaring at her husband

"He can't say all those things to you, you are the queen", Abhyansh said

"I'm his Bhabhi sa, of course he can, anyways I'm going, don't punish Avyan", she said but he didn't nod... "say yes please", she said, and he shook his head... "Rana sa... please", she whined, and he again shook his head...

"Ask rightfully, what do you want??", he asked, and she understood what he wants...

"You are not punishing Avyan, Rana sa", she ordered and rushed out with the empty coffee cup and plate making him smile widely...

She entered the hallway and gave the soiled vessels to the servants before moving to her brother-in-law and mother-in-law who are walking to and fro in tension... she chuckled at their tension, her inner self mocked her that she is equally afraid of her husband's icy tone and she couldn't agree more...

"Avyan relax, he wouldn't punish you, I talked to him...", Isha said walking towards them, Avyan and Amruta sighed in relief and the next second Avyan glared at his sister-in-law...

"Why would you do that Bhabhi sa??", he asked making his way to her...

"It's your brother who did that, he cupped my mouth from talking, what am I supposed to do?? Next time wait till I say 'hello' before starting with your blabber...", Isha said

"She is right, it's your fault", Amruta sided with her daughter-in-law

"Ma, you can't side with Bhabhi sa every time...", Avyan whined...

"Your Bhabhi sa herself will side with you, stop whining", Amruta said making Isha chuckle... the three of them had some fun having their snacks and after an hour or so, Amruta and Isha left to make dinner, Avyan demanded any of his favourite dishes to make up for the terror he had to bear, Isha giggled at his choice of words for his brother and agreed to make it...

At dinner, when Abhyansh spotted Avyan's favourite dishes, he glared at his brother who lowered his head in fear... Isha kept his hand on her husband's palm shaking her head, asking him not to kill his brother with his eyes... Abhyansh sighed and had his dinner and left to his study...

"Rani sa, interior designers are here with all the designs...", a servant told Isha...

"I'm coming in a minute... ask them to sit", she said sighing deeply...

Avyan and Amruta chuckled seeing Isha's expressions... she already told them about her conversation with her husband regarding the kitchen...

"He is too much... I just said it like that, I thought we would be discussing it", Isha whined...

"You have problem with his sweet gestures too?? Stop whining and go select", Amruta said, "I'll clear this, Avyan go and help your Bhabhi sa in deciding", Amruta added and both the brother-in-law and sister-in-law looked at each other's faces sighing...
