Page 20 of The Royal Beast & His Caged Princess

"Maharaj...", Isha said, her voice literally begging him not to do that to her...

"If you agree, they live, if not, they die", Abhyansh said with his tone icy...

Isha didn't have a choice; she can't let any more deaths happen... So, she nodded looking down hiding her tears of shame as all this discussion happened in front of her brother-in-law, the fact that her husband didn't care even a bit for her respect killed the tiny hope her positive attitude created... Abhyansh gave a devilish smirk looking at her nod...

"Avyan, Call Kailash Rajput, and warn him to stop all the atrocities right away", Abhyansh ordered, and Avyan nodded calling Kailash and putting the phone on speaker as Abhyansh signalled...

Hearing the ringing, Isha decided to leave as she is in no mood to handle her uncle's tone tonight, her emotions are all over the place, but will he be called the BEAST if he wouldn't suffer her...

"Stay...", Abhyansh said when he noticed her turning to walk away... She stood still, turning to him again sending a smallprayer to God to save her tonight... she hoped her uncle doesn't say anything to degrade her, but luck is not on her side today...

"Hello Mr. Ranawat, I'm honoured to receive a call from you", Kailash's voice boomed into the phone... hearing it Isha remembered all the tortures he had put her through which she forgot in these two months. She closed her eyes to stop the memories, Abhyansh saw her distress, but he didn't feel the satisfaction he usually feels when he sees her in pain, these days he became obsessed with her like he should be the only one who gives her the pain... The only thing on his mind is he should free her from the pain and distress Kailash Rajput is giving her...

"Stop with the nonsense Mr. Kailash Rajput and listen to me carefully, stop all the nuisances right away, it's an order from the King", Avyan said controlling his tongue thinking his sister-in-law will feel bad if he uses harsh language for her uncle...

"What are you talking about Mr. Ranawat, and by the way, I don't have a king, King of Mewar who my elder brother was had died years back and from then the Mewar throne has been vacant", Kailash said laughing, he didn't know the phone is on speaker and Abhyansh is listening to it...

"Rajput...", Abhyansh said in his cold tone holding a slight warning, which instantly stopped the laughter... "Any more deaths from here on, you will see my BEAST side, and you know you won't be able to see anything after that", Abhyansh said... and that made Kailash shiver, but he knew Abhyansh won't kill him, he promised his son and he is a man of his words, so he decided to use this chance to the fullest...

"Why are you doing this Mr. Ranawat?? For that sl**ty daughter of my brother?? Is she w**ming your bed that good that you arebacking her father's supporters who hate you... in fact, I'm doing you good by eliminating your enemies... I thought you would torture my b**ch of a niece but here you are....", Kailash started but he is interrupted by Abhyansh's tone... Hearing her uncle's words, Isha cupped her mouth and sobbed... Avyan felt really bad for his sister-in-law, he just wanted to kill that Kailash...

"Careful there Kailash... I promised Ranveer not to kill you, but I can do other things... I can cut your arms, and feed them to my pets in front of your own eyes, then I pull apart your legs one by one making you feel your every bone breaking, and your body parts dismantling bit by bit, and then insert your favourite pen into your eyes, the pen with which you made me sign my marriage certificate, remember?? and still, you would be alive", Abhyansh said in a low menacing tone which held a promise that if Kailash didn't shut up, he would do all of it... Everyone except for Isha knew how dangerous Abhyansh's pets are, which include a lion, and tens of hounds...

Isha gasped and wanted to throw up even hearing her husband's words... Kailash gulped, his whole-body sweating hearing Abhyansh's promising tone, he knew Abhyansh is not joking, he will really do all that if he says a single word in excess...

"F... Forgive me Ma...Maharaj, I...I... I’ll do as you ordered", Kailash stuttered, and Abhyansh sighed in satisfaction hearing the tremor in his tone...

"Forgiveness is not what I do Kailash, you insulted Abhyansh Singh Ranawat's wife, and you will get your punishment, I'm taking the control of all the possessions you acquired, by marrying off your niece to me...", Abhyansh declared, Kailash cursed his big mouth, but he didn't have the courage to argue with Abhyansh, so he just obeyed shocking Isha... Abhyansh cutthe call and turned towards Isha, and looking at her calm face with no hint of fear, he felt good... he should be the only one she should fear... he thought...

Isha felt bad for her uncle seeing him losing everything he loved always... He did all the dirty things for the control of those possessions but now he lost them. Wait! She just remembered her husband called her his wife, and just like that, her hope returned, her soft heart actually felt good when Abhyansh called her his wife...

"Avyan, ask our men to monitor Kailash Rajput's actions, one wrong move, and bring him to the den, I'll see him", Abhyansh ordered and got up walking towards Isha... Though Isha is a tall woman, she still felt intimidated by her husband's dominant height and dark personality.

"You agreed to be my slave, now let's discuss the terms", Abhyansh whispered to her and dragged her to their room... Avyan sighed and sent a small prayer for his sister-in-law and walked out of his brother's office...

Abhyansh pushed her onto the floor and walked back to lock the door, her heart thudded with fear... He came back to the bed, sat on it, and put his one shoe-clad foot on her right thigh holding her face in between his fingers roughly...

"You are my slave from today, I don't show any mercy to my slaves, you should come to me whenever I call you, even a minute delay could cost you a lot, hear me??", Abhyansh said in his cold tone, and she nodded with teary eyes...

"Words", He commanded...

"Y... Yes Maharaj...", She said, tears spilling from her eyes...

He held her hair and pulled her near his face roughly, she got hell afraid seeing the proximity, and more tears left her eyes but the words that left his mouth came as a shock to her, and she knew they would leave a permanent scar on her soul...

"Don't worry, I won't go for sl*ts like you, I won't touch you even if you beg me to, you disgust me", he said pushing her away and she fell back on the floor... she dragged her body to the wall and sat there, her back supporting the wall as his words filled with disgust made her body cold...

"Have a peaceful sleep for tonight, from tomorrow, you won't be having it, your slavery starts from tomorrow", he said and walked away leaving her shattered...

Her uncle too called her that word many times, but it didn't sting as much as it did when her husband did... She didn't understand why he hates her so much, and neither did she has the courage to ask him... and now she doesn't want to know anything... She cried for an hour and after that, she didn't feel anything, all she felt is numbness...

The whole night she didn't sleep, and in the morning, she started her daily work, but she didn't feel that usual excitement she feels in the morning every day, but she put up a smile for her mother-in-law who loved her like a daughter... She prepared the breakfast talking to Amruta, and after that everyone assembled at the breakfast table, and she started serving Abhyansh, surprisingly no one including Amruta felt her changed attitude but Abhyansh did, he felt her rigid but he felt nothing, after the breakfast, Isha left to her office and started with her work trying to bring the positivity in her but today that didn't work, herhusband's treatment kept coming in front of her eyes and she rushed to the washroom and busted out into tears...

When she came out, she saw a message on her phone, it was from the Beast himself asking her to reach home in 30 minutes, as he needed something from her... Reaching home in 30 minutes is highly challenging and now that she saw the message 5 minutes late, it became impossible, she rushed to Ragini, took her permission, and left for palace, she urged the cab driver to drop her at the Ranawat's palace but he said he could drop her only till the main road as they were not allowed in the palace premises at that time... that's when she understood why the cab drivers are dropping her near the palace every day, they are permitted there only between 5 to 6 PM... she asked him to speed up, and when she reached the main road, she paid him and ran towards the palace, she knew reaching the palace that is 15 kilometres away from her current location in 15 minutes is highly impossible but she wanted to try... she ran towards the palace and after half an hour more, she reached the palace, she is panting heavily, her legs are giving up, but she ran towards his office where he asked her to come, and as soon as she reached his office door, she collapsed on the floor face front... her legs gave up, she is panting heavily and breathing became difficult for her...

Abhyansh knew this would happen, so he already called the doctor to his office room, the doctor rushed to Isha and immediately connected an oxygen mask to her and after a while, she started breathing normally, Abhyansh dispersed the doctor and walked to Isha...

"You are late by half an hour, on your knees till evening", He ordered, and she immediately sat on her knees, her legs arepaining like hell, but she can't disobey him, she is his slave, and as he said, he is treating her like one...
