Raakshas - A human demon novel Chapter 21

Raakshas's p.o.v

After Imran's information about Manish, I felt like someone has pushed me into a puzzle. I am not understanding what's happening!

How can Manish be avail in two places at the same time! It's impossible. Moreover, that attacker looked exactly like Manish! Are these two incidents related to each other? Is there someone else who is creating chaos? I am not sure.

I can't still believe that Manish is innocent. So, for more clarification, I have to meet Ayat  & Afreen. I have to ask some questions to them.

I came to the hospital where my sisters are still having treatment. Those fuckers had tortured them mercilessly.

I entered into the hospital cabin and found that Afreen is sleeping. Only Ayat is awake and she is aimlessly looking at the window. My poor little sister!

Seeing me, she gave me a sad smile and I returned the smile. I sat beside her and asked her patting her head," how are you feeling?"

" Much better," She replied fidgeting her fingers.

I am not understanding how to ask her about that incident again. I am sure it will freak her out. She is traumatized by that horrific incident. I also know how it felt being raped. Some old memories flashed inside my head and I trembled with fear.

I composed myself and concentrate on that matter which is bothering me.

I am opening my mouth but no words are coming out from my mouth. I don't want my sister to be scared. But, the questions are important as well.

I started murmuring," Umm.....i..me...I want......."

" Bhai, just tell me what you want to know? I know you want to ask me something," She asked me resting her hand on my hand.

I sighed and said hesitantly," I wanted to ask you something about that incident. If you are uncomfortable then don't say anything. I will not pressurize you."

She was silent for some time. I am still looking at her with my hopeful eyes when she replied timidly," You can ask me."

I kissed her forehead and said to her softly," I know it's difficult for you to remember those bastards. But still, your clear information might save an innocent's life."

Hearing me, she asked me lowering her voice," Tell me what do you want to know?"

" You remember, you told me that there were six men. All of them were wearing mask except one. Can you tell me his description again? I asked her hesitantly.

Hearing me she started panicking. Her breath hitched remembering that incident. I hugged her and consoled her patting her head.

After a few moments, she became normal and replied," I have already given his description and you have made a sketch out of my description."

" I know, dear. I mean to say is there something specific about that person. Something which has caught your attention," I asked her knitting my brows.

She thought for some time and replied," No, bhai. There was nothing like that."

I didn't ask her anything because I can't pressurize her. I kissed her forehead and told the nurse to take care of her.

When I will just leave the hospital cabin She called me by my name and I turned to her raising my brow.

" Bhai, that man has a scar on his forehead. The scar was quite old like he has gotten it in his childhood," Ayat said.

I asked her to be more sure," Are you sure?"

She said giving me a scared look," I can never forget that man. He was most violent among those animals."

After hearing her I didn't waste any time. I got into my car and started my journey to the secret torture house where Manish was still captive.

I reached there and found Azhar's car is parked in front of the torture house. What the fuck is he doing here?

I entered into the house and found that he is pointing his gun at Manish's forehead and ready to pull the trigger. When he will just pull the trigger I pushed him hard and he landed on the floor.

I didn't notice what's Azhar doing after my push. I immediately checked Manish's forehead and there was no old scar.

We have tortured him and that's why his whole face is bruised but there is no scar on his forehead. That means he wasn't involved in Ayat & Afreen's rape incident. Is there someone else who looked like Manish has done all this! Is it possible!

But, how the hell Manish's DNA sample matched if he wasn't there! Was it the doctor who might have done some mistake while checking? Fuck! Everything is messed up.

I am thinking all this when Azhar marched towards me and grabbed my collar. He asked me angrily, " Why did you save this fucker? I can't see him breathing."

I looked at him and said threatening him," Remove your hands from my collar."

I know he is afraid of me. He didn't make any fuss and removed his hands. He asked me again," Why this fucker is still alive? Did you just forget about his deeds?"

He said having a proud smile," If I go at this rate. You will be pregnant very soon. I want a cute baby with you."

" Your this wish will never be fulfilled," Pari said mentally because she is going to take birth control pill.

Raakshas stood up on his feet when Pari asked him wrapping a bed sheet around her," Raakshas, please tell me where is my father? Where have you hidden him? Why you and your Sarkar is after my father?"

Hearing Pari, he sat beside her and said holding her shoulder tightly," Have some belief in me. Your father is somewhere safe. Don't worry."

Pari didn't understand why Raakshas became so considerate about her father. But, she can't believe him so easily. She believes that Raakshas is a manipulative jerk and capable of doing anything.

She said being annoyed," I am doing everything whatever you are telling me. You married me forcefully. You are fulfilling your desires every day by using my body still you aren't allowing me to meet my father! What's happening? Try to understand. I miss my father. It's been many days since I have met him."

Her eyes became glossy like any time she will cry.

This time Raakshas holds her shoulder and said," Pari, just for once believe in me. I will let you meet your father. Just wait for some days. There is something which I have to find out. After that, I will let you meet him. I promise you. "

Pari looked at Raakshas's eyes and found that he isn't lying at all. His eyes are holding truthfulness.

Raakshas again said putting pressure on his hold," I might be a bad person but trust me I never lie. I will let you meet your father and tell you everything. Give me some time for that."

She doesn't know what happened to her that she agreed with him. Her heart told her to trust him and she agreed with her heart.

She just nodded her head in positive and Raakshas became happy. He kissed her forehead and said smiling," I will not disappoint my little fairy."

Pari didn't say anything further. She just looked at the window aimlessly when Raakshas said," Take a shower and get ready. We are going to the temple."

" Temple? Why? As per I remember you are not a religious person then why are you going to temple? Pari asked him sarcastically.

Raakshas sighed and said taking out his towel from the closet," Today is Rajshri Ma's ( mother's) death anniversary. I am going to pray for the peace of her soul and you are coming with me."

" And who is this Rajshri ma now? Pari asked Raakshas curiously.

Hearing Pari, he just chuckled and said taking a deep breath," She is the reason that I am still alive."
