Page 63 of The Royal Beast & His Rising Queen

"Rana sa... I'll do it", she said...

"Sh... let me...", he said kissing her hair and helped her freshen up, then opened her bun and combed her hair with his fingers, she closed her eyes in bliss, he repeated how she told him in the morning and this time he made it perfectly though there is no comb... then he made her wear her jewellery trying to cover her hickeys but his wild love isn't covered by some small neckpiece... she sighed looking down... he took her out of the bathroom and made her sit on the couch before looking into a solution in his phone. It's all new for him as well but he found a solution quickly.

"Call Ragini and ask her to bring makeup", he said and she nodded, he listed the items and Isha told those to Ragini, Ragini being the smart one understood what's it's purpose... she smiled to herself and hung up and is about to walk away when Ranveer held her wrist and she glared at him strongly, he left her wrist immediately but he is equally glaring at her...

"What did she say?? Is she okay??", he asked

"She is fine... now please let me go, my friend needs something from me", Ragini said and walked away... Ranveer closed his eyes in guilt, reason?? Well the words he spoke just some time ago...

"You shouldn't have said all that to her Ranveer, if Bhabhi sa gets to know about this, she wouldn't forgive you", Avyan said

"I know but I was worried for my sister... it's all your brother's fault that I hurt her...", Ranveer said remembering his words...

"This is all because of you, why the hell did I listen to you in the first place?? I won't leave you if my sister is hurt Ragini Shah", he said with anger shocking Ragini, she never imagined that this sweet, calm, and jovial brother to her best friend can be so cold, detached, and venomous. Her eyes filled, why?? She didn't know, she is not the one among to cry, she would give them back but for some reason, words stuck in her throat when it came to this man who made her flutter at the first sight of him. She blamed it on Reetu's baseless words and her stupid self who expected him to have feelings for her... she wouldn't do that mistake from now on...

Ragini is back with a small bag, she knocked on the door and Abhyansh opened the door.

"Maharaj, you need any help??", Ragini asked all serious but he could find hidden humour in her tone, he glared at her, though she didn't look into his eyes, he could feel him drilling holes into her head... Ragini cleared her throat and muttered a 'Sorry'. Abhyansh took the bag and shut the door...

"What the actual f**k??", Ranveer said, wanting to go inside but his BEAST of a brother-in-law shut the door on his face... "what's there in that bag??", Ranveer asked Ragini

"I can't tell you Yuvraj", she said coldly, Ranveer could hear her distant tone...

"Is Bhabhi sa fine??", Avyan asked

"She is absolutely fine, Your Highness...", she said softly to Avyan, Ranveer frowned at the change of the tone she used when she spoke to him and Avyan.

"I already told you, please don't call me that Ms. Shah... you are Bhabhi sa's best friend, no need to be formal", Avyan said softly, Ragini gave a formal nod... "okay if Bhabhi sa is fine, I'll leave then, Ranveer let me know if there is anything", Avyan said and Ranveer nodded, and Avyan left.

"What's there in that bag and why are you calling me Yuvraj??", Ranveer asked trying to hold her but she moved back...

"There is makeup in it, concealer, foundation, and other things to be precise", she said and Ranveer's eyes widened in realization... how dare he touch my sister is the first thing that came in his head, Ranveer didn't like the idea of his sister and brother-in-law's proximity. Not yet at least...

"That b**t**d...", Ranveer fumed, Ragini looked at him bewildered... he is an extreme version of those Indian possessive brothers...

"They are wife and husband I think, Yuvraj", Ragini said before she could stop herself... she didn't understand Ranveer and his crazy love for his sister... when it came to her, he loses his calm and senses, and Ragini didn't like that a bit. She thought, he could think in the best interests of Isha only when he stays calm and is able to think correctly.

"Who will answer my other question?? Look, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have...", Ranveer started but Ragini interrupted him...

"Please don't apologize... it's fine... let's forget it", Ragini said, she understood where he is coming from, she had taken it optimistically if Ranveer wouldn't have shouted at her, she would never get a reality check, and she would never know the growing feelings inside her without her knowledge, and now since she knew, she thought to control them. Though Isha is very close and is like a family to her, her family is far from her.

Ranveer smiled gratefully at Ragini for understanding and Ragini gave a polite smile, he sensed something different in her behaviour, and he is about to ask her when Abhyansh opened the door after he helped his wife conceal his love from the outer world, Ranveer immediately rushed inside only to see his sister sitting on the sofa having water in her left hand and half-eaten chocolate bar in her right.

"What is this?? Don't tell me, he gave you a chocolate bar to keep your mouth shut", Ranveer said, looking at his sister with chocolate in her hand and some spread on her lips, she looked exactly like a 4-year-old who just received a chocolate from the mother after getting a good beating to stop her from complaining the father...

Ragini giggled hearing Ranveer and Isha's innocent eyes matched his words. Abhyansh glared at Ranveer before taking a tissue and gently wiping Isha's lips shocking Isha, Ragini, and Ranveer as well... Isha is shocked because her husband never showed so much affection in front of people, even though that was just her brother, Ragini and Ranveer as they couldn't believe their own eyes... Ragini even rubbed her eyes to check if she is having an illusion and now it was Ranveer's chance to chuckle looking at her... she looked so cute...

Abhyansh signed Isha to hold the tissue and wipe the rest while he deals with her brother and best friend...

"Rajput... there is a word called 'Patience', ever heard of it?? Why the hell were you banging on my door?? To attract attention from my employees and create problems for my wife", Abhyansh asked coldly, Ragini literally shivered hearing the coldness in his tone, did she call Ranveer cold and venomous before?? She took her words back after hearing Abhyansh now...

Abhyansh is worried about the rumours that would spread regarding his wife if any of the employees observed this. He could bear anything but his wife's pain is not among them...

"Patience?? After seeing how you shot Farhn Al-Qasmi, prince of one of the most powerful royal families in the world without a second thought, just because he passed crude comments on your wife?? How do you expect me to be sane knowing my innocent sister is alone with you, that too when your BEAST mode is on", Ranveer said, Ragini's eyes widened hearing Ranveer, did he have a death wish?? Where the heck did he get the courage to say all those words to the king, that too the most ruthless one?? Ragini and Isha are hell-scared after hearing what Ranveer said aboutAbhyansh killing the prince without any second thoughts. Though they knew this, it still sent shivers to them... observing his wife's condition, Abhyansh glared at his brother-in-law furiously.

"Watch that mouth Rajput, I don't want to make my wife's brother dumb for life, my patience is thin, you know it very well, so better don't test it", Abhyansh warned in his calm yet dangerous tone. Ranveer got the seriousness in his brother-in-law's tone.

"Ranawat, you should understand my worry, I'm extra sensitive regarding my bacha during this time as she...", Ranveer suddenly stopped when he looked at his sister's widened eyes, only then he realized what he is about to say... Abhyansh frowned looking at the sibling's reaction, he knew there was something that they are hiding and he also knew they wouldn't say a thing even if he asks, well he had other ways to get the truth out but unfortunately, he can't practice them on his wife and for her sake, he can't do it on his brother-in-law as well.
