"Hm... I so love it when you say my name with desire", he said placing his lips on hers, and kissing her thoroughly, as he didn't get to taste her lips in the evening as well as she was extremely mad.

She tapped his chest getting breathless, he broke the kiss and looked into her eyes which turned angry from shy in a blink.

"Move away Rana sa", she said

"You are still upset about it?? What do you want me to do??", Abhyansh asked leaning his forehead on hers, lightly pecking her nose.

"I shouldn't be upset? How are you so cool about it, tell this first, your wife felt humiliated and you don't even care about it?? Old habits die hard", she said mocking him, he sat straight looking squarely at her.

"What do you mean by it??", Abhyansh asked seriously

"Exactly what I said", she said, she didn't want to name all that but he did humiliate her a lot from the time of their marriage and she is too prideful to forget all of it. She forgets it and some or the other thing happens reminding her of the same.

"Isha... I tried keeping your respect at every point, even today, Bhairav would have followed your orders blindly if they weren't going against mine... trust me, no one would dare to humiliate you or go against your words, you are the queen and you are respected a lot", Abhyansh said, trying to make her understand his point.

She silently walked away to change ignoring him, and laid on the bed after returning.

"Really?? Now you won't even talk to me", he said sighing

"Give me what I asked for, and I'll let this go", she bargained, he hated teaching her to stand her ground now.

"Isha... what you are asking is a huge thing, I can't do it", he said holding her shoulders, he hated saying 'No' to his wife but he had to. He can't risk everything, if he wanted, he could find a solutionbut he didn't want to take even a 0.1% chance at it. The system that's running now provides 100% security to his family, he had everything in place, he didn't want to disrupt the peace now.

"Okay... now let me sleep, I am tired, enjoy your queenless regime then", she said calmly, jerking his hands off, before dozing off due to physical and mental tiredness.

After those words, Abhyansh didn't say a word, as he too was upset with his wife's stubbornness, particularly at this time, he was not used to her being adamant, she was always understanding so her strong stand did get him surprised and now it started irritating him as she maintained her distance from him.

The next day, Isha called her brother to come and drop her and Avyan at their office and pick them up in the evening pissing Abhyansh.

"I'll take you both, why did you ask your brother when we have so many cars at home", Abhyansh asked getting pissed and trying to concentrate on the matter at hand, he is losing control seeing his wife changing in front of him their closet, result of their intimacy for the past few days. He loved how comfortable she became with him... she is still that shy wife until he initiates the intimacy, but once he does, she catches up real fast. But the distance she is keeping from the previous night is getting on his nerves.

"Oh no, I don't want your men to burn another car Rana sa, so keep your cars to yourself, my bhai will drop me and Avyan", she remarked sarcastically adjusting her dupatta (shawl) and he sighed unable to take off his eyes off his wife who is looking gorgeous in an off-white salwar suit.

He knew his statement will draw a sarcastic comment from her yet he used it, his wife looked extremely hot while passing those sarcastic remarks and as much as it pissed him, he secretly enjoyed them. And to torture him more, she is wearing a suit instead of those cotton leggings and kurti she generally wears for work. She is aware that he found her extremely graceful and elegant in her suits.

"You look beautiful Rani sa...", he said hugging her from behind, for a second, she wanted to give in to his warmth which she missed terribly from the previous night but she had to be tough if she needs to earn the desired respect for her family, especially Avyan deserved it. She had to fight for Avyan.

She jerked his hands off her, and walked out of the closet hiding her nuptial chain, and took her bag in one hand, she is about to walk out of their room when her husband who came behind her, held her wrist. He didn't say a thing, just put her nuptial chain on display, and took her towards the dressing table. He silently took out the ointment and applied it to the burn... she in her anger, forgot to apply it, though she forgets it, he never would.

"It's time for your third session, I'll schedule an appointment with the doctor next week... don't forget to apply it after lunch, hm ??", he said softly, kissing her forehead. His care and attention to her every little need melted her heart. She hated giving cold shoulder to him from the previous evening.

"You'll remind me even if I forget, don't you ??", she asked him softly, he reminded her about her ointment daily even when they were not in talking terms, he kept texting her about her medicines. When it came to her, every little thing mattered to him and his this love always made her weak and made her ignoreevery other thing about him that hurt her, but this time it isn't just about her, it's about Avyan and the whole family too.

"Of course, I will", he said, she nodded and walked away. He sighed deeply before following her, he groaned seeing his brother-in-law standing in the hall, he hated seeing his smirk, Isha observed how her brother was smirking at her husband trying to irritate him.

"Bhai... enough", Isha scolded her brother...

"Ishu... you won't let me enjoy the victory even for a second, such a cruel sister I got", Ranveer said, his smile not leaving his face at his win over his brother-in-law, his sister is preferring to go with him ignoring the BEAST, this gave him a different kick.

"I wish she is the cruel sister who cares the least about her brother, I wouldn't have to think a second before digging your grave then", Abhyansh said throwing fire at Ranveer, Abhyansh's anger and jealousy entertained Ranveer more.

"Ow! Ranawat... don't worry, put a bandage on your bruised ego, okay ??", Ranveer said, Abhyansh took a step to punch his brother-in-law in the gut when his wife came in between...

"Bhayyu, don't you have any work other than irritating my husband ??", Isha asked her brother sternly, bringing a small smile to Abhyansh's face hearing her 'my husband'. She does usually say this, and every time she did, it made him happy at her open claim on him, but it did made him a bit more happier hearing it now, considering she is upset with him now.

"Yeah, right, I'm receiving hundreds of crores every time I irritate your husband, this is what I do for living, don't you know ?", Ranveer retorted at his sister's accusation...

"Bhai, it's my fault I called you to take me to the office", Isha said angrily
