"Bring some new clothes for your Madam and arrange her closet in Veer's room" Minakshi ordered the maids as they nodded and started arranging accordingly.
"Divya, I've to go back as you know the whole Rathores' Business is under my guidance! I'll try to come back as soon as possible whenever I'll get time. Till then take care of yourself and if you need something just ask the workers, they will arrange everything. About Veer, I'll talk to him. In any emergency feel free to call me, I'll come back to you then and there, you've my promise!"
Divya nodded her head slightly on her words as she accompanied her to the gate and after that returned back to the room.

"Madam, this is your all necessities. If you need anything, please call me"
Divya agreed and taking out the most simple saree from the closet as she didn't have the habit of wearing heavy attires, she went to the washroom. Her eyes started roaming allover the big luxurious washroom as she felt like she might be lost in that big place.
Removing all the attires one by one she started the shower. Then looked at herself through the mirror as her vision fell on the vermilion which was dropping from her hairline like blood after mixing with the heavy flow of water and the nuptial chain which was hanging from her neck.
"You've to marry me"
"Scream!"
"I hate her"
She closed her eyes as the incidents flashed infront of her eyes one by one.
'Why me, mumma? Why always me?' Her knees touched the floor as she fell with a thud and bursted out in tears.

After a long session of emotional outburst she felt little relaxed as she wrapped herself in a grey saree with dark green blouse and combing her hairs applied the vermillion on her hairline.
"Ma'am it's already 9.00 pm. The dinner is ready. Will you eat now?"
Divya glanced at the wall clock hearing the voice as she started thinking what to do.
"I'll arrange myself. You can go" The worker nodded and left.
Divya was seeming conflicted. She was feeling hungry as she didn't take anything from long but didn't know why she was feeling uncomfortable to eat alone. Even in that small house, she and her brother used to eat together while chit-chatting and sharing laughter but here everything was so silent, haunting and uncomfortable. The only people who could hear your words were the luxurious furniture and other non living things. Thinking for a long time, she decided to wait for him.
She took some books from there and was reading them when her eyes became closed due to tiredness and she lost in deep slumber.

A tik tok sound on the big wall clock made her awake from her dreamland as she opened her eyes with a jerk. Her vision fell on that as it was showing 12.00 a.m. at midnight.
Divya glanced at her side, then the whole room but he wasn't there. She hurriedly came downstairs thinking that he might have come but didn't go to his room because she was there but for her shock he wasn't there too.
She went to the kitchen and came to see all the foods and dishes were there like before none touched them.
'Won't he come?' The sudden fear grabbed her heart as she started thinking how she would pass the whole night alone in that big mansion.
With slow steps she came to her room but she was feeling uneasy there too.
Again the terrible silence was haunting her. She pulled the curtains and left the lights in on mode.
Sitting on the bed Divya thought to close her eyes then she wouldn't be scared but as soon as she closed them a loud bang on the door stopped her. She got up from the bed immediately hearing the sound as her vision fell on the doorstep and with that her husband, Rajveer Singh Rathore.
Her eyes widened and heart started banging in her rib cage seeing him. His eyes were blood shed red and hairs were in messed up condition.
With his slow steps he started coming towards her as she stepped back in fear without a second thought and directly hit the wall. He caged her in between his muscular arms as she started panicking.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable, my dear wife?"
His deep words made her look up at him as she didn't know what to answer.
"Aren't you the one who have chosen to stay with me sharing the same bed? Then why are you feeling uncomfortable?" Rajveer stated coming more closer to her while rubbing his nose on her soft cheek and neck.
A lone tear dropped from her eyes hearing his words and his actions. The smell of the heavy wines went in her nostrils as she turned her face to another side unable to bear more.
Gathering all her strength she pushed him a little on his chest with her tiny fists and tried to ran away from his grip but before she could do that Rajveer held her wrist tightly and pinned her to the wall again.
"L_Leave me!"
"Didn't you like it?" He asked holding her wrist in her back tightly which resulted her to fall on his chest more.
"Please l_leave me! I'ts h_hurting!" Divya pleaded with her teary eyes.
"Is it hurting? But that is what you and your brother wanted? To become the part of Rathores and grab their properties? For you my doll is out of the house forever! Then why aren't you enjoying, now?"
"I didn't know anything about bhaiya and bhabi from before!" She started hiccuping with tears in her eyes.
"These tears won't effect me. What did he think he won? He was successful in manipulating my sister? Not at all, sweetheart. Your bastard brother will pay for each and everything. Pray for yourself"
She gulped down the pain because of his tightest grip as the glass bangles on her hands broke in little pieces and pierced in her skin making her bleed but he couldn't see it as he was more busy in hurting her with his words.
"It's just the start my dear wife!" Saying so, Rajveer dragged her out of his room and left her with a jerk.
She stumbled back a little and fell on the floor with a thud because of the force.
"And dare you try to show me your face again. I'll lose my sanity!" He banged the door on her face and left.
Divya looked at her palm with teary eyes which got a deep cut. 'Her first gift from him'. She thought and pulled out the piece of the broken bangle from her skin. A painful hiss left from her mouth as she closed her mouth with her palm stopping her cries.
With the trembling feet she came downstairs and sat on the couch. Her eyes felt heavy as she cried whole night while sitting there.
