After one week
Pari's p.o.v
I am sitting inside our bedroom beside a window and looking outside aimlessly. I am shedding tears for my baby which was killed by that doctor.
I am still in confusion why she aborted my baby and Niharika told lies. After that incident, Niharika didn't talk with me nor she came to meet me even for once. I am not understanding why she did all this. Why she trapped me like that. I thought she is my friend but in reality, she betrayed me. How can she told lies like that!
In these 7 days, Raakshas didn't come to meet me even for a once. He didn't utter a single word with me as well. He didn't ask me anything about the abortion as well. He has locked me up inside our room. He hasn't permitted me to meet my family members as well.
He is providing me with food and medicines so that I can heal fast. Seeing his calm behaviour I am understanding that it's the silence before the storm. I am sure he is going to do something bad with me. I am not understanding how I am going to make him believe that I didn't kill our baby!
I am still shedding my tears when the room's door burst open and Raakshas entered.
Looking at his calm face I am feeling too much scared. He might be looking calm but I am sure anger is erupting inside him like a volcano. His dark orbs are killing me every time whenever my eyes are meeting his. He is looking at me curling his brows and clenched jaw.
" I didn't kill our baby. I swear," I uttered with too much fear. I am literally shaking due to fear.
He didn't say anything. He stood in front of me like a mountain and stared at my face for a few seconds like he is reading my mind. I am just pleading him by my eyes.
Then, without saying anything he holds my one wrist and made me stood up. He holds my wrist so tightly that I felt like my blood supply is cutting.
" Ah....Raakshas....leave my wrist. You are hurting me," I said trying to free myself from his grip.
He left my wrist but clutched my hairs tightly. He said gritting his teeth," I haven't hurt you yet. Just wait and watch what I do to you."
Hearing him a shiver run down through my whole system. My heart is beating so fast like it will come out from my ribcage anytime.
Before I could protest he started dragging me. I don't know where is he taking me. He is taking me another section of his property which I have never seen before.
I am pleading to leave my hairs but he isn't listening to any of my words like he has become deaf.
After dragging me for almost 10 minutes he threw me inside a big room which is looking like a big dungeon or basement type area.
I looked at my surrounding and found that Vedant is also here along with Raakshas's twenty men. They all are looking at Raakshas like they are waiting for any kind of order. I also saw an executioner type man who is looking very scary.
Something caught my attention that four people are tied with ropes in chairs and their face is covered with black clothes. Among them, two are women and two are men.
It didn't take too much time for me to understand who are they. They are my family members.
Before I could tell Raakshas to leave my family members I heard him saying," Uncover their face."
Raakshas's men removed the clothes and I found that Masi, uncle, Jay and Prisha are tied with ropes. They are looking at me with their pleading eyes.
" Why are they here? What's your intention about them? I asked Raakshas with my terrified voice.
He replied clenching his jaw," Didn't I warn you that your family will suffer if anything happens to my baby?"
" Whatever has happened it's not their fault," I said trying to make him understand.
He just ignored me and signalled that butcher type person.
I asked him with my scared voice," What are you going to do?"
" I am going to skin them alive in front of your eyes. You didn't take my warning seriously. Now, face the consequences," He replied like an emotionless person.
After hearing him I felt like my soul has left my body. He is going to murder my whole family. I can't let that happen. I can't see my family being butchered like animals.
" You can't do that, please," I uttered with my glossy eyes.
He made a hard face and replied with his dangerous voice," I can and I will."
I am begging in front of him to leave my family when I saw that the butcher is heading towards Jay with a big knife in his hand. Jay is just whimpering but couldn't utter any sound because his mouth is closed by a tape.
" I beg you. Please, let them go. Please. Don't be so cruel," I pleaded holding Raakshas's hand.
But, he isn't giving any importance to my pleadings. He is just looking at my family members with anger and hurt.
I heard him saying," You should have thought about the consequences before killing my baby."
I replied shaking him vigorously," I didn't kill our baby. I didn't. How many times I have to say that?"
Saying that I fall on my knees near his feet. I am crying hysterically and mumbling," I didn't kill our baby. I didn't."
Suddenly, I heard Jay's loud scream piercing through my ears and heart. I looked at him and found that the butcher has struck the knife on Jay's right hand.
Seeing the horrible scene in front of me I screamed loudly and hold Raakshas's hand. I pleaded with my vulnerable voice," Please, let them go. Please. You can do whatever you wanted to do with me. They are innocent."
I said the last part yelling like a madwoman.
He jerked me off from near his feet and barked on my face," My baby was innocent too. But you killed it mercilessly. You heartless woman."
