Riya's pov :

I went near her and was hell shocked to see who it is !!

"What the hell ! Smriti ?!!"

(Its akshay's childhood frnd who came as stylist to Riya , incase if you cant remember the name !)

Her trembling body made my hands shiver. The blood on her forehead brought chills to me.

I was hell shocked and baffled.

Her hands and legs tied. It took me more than a minute to come out of my shock state.

I stood up suddenly and started freeing her hands and legs. The chain was so tight that i couldnt move it an inch.

The bloody security officers stood there and watched like some damn statues. How can all be so cruel !

"Come and remove this .Free her right now." I seethed to the man standing near her.

He didnt move an inch rather his eyes rolled to the person behind all these.

She never looked into my eyes. Her head bowed down all the time. Tears rolled my eyes seeing her like this.

Her perfect model like face long gone. Dark circles around her eyes showed the stress and sleepless nights. The blood stain on her forehead didnot help it. The hair which will always be like right out of the hair stylist looked tangled and dry.

"Akshay. Ask him to remove this. Are you mad? How could you do this?! " i said anger and disgust evident in my voice. Hes her frnd for god's sake.

"No. Not yet "

"Stop all your bullshits now. How can you be so cruel seeing one human suffer infront of your eyes and the sole reason being you. Bloody saddist"

"Shhh Riya" He said and dragged me near and wrapped his hands around my waist.

Oh god ! Has he lost his mind?

"Have you lost your mind? Why is she even here and at this state?"

He took his hand back and walked past me near smriti like my screaming words were not audible at all !!

I ran behind him as i dont want him to hurt her in any way.

smriti sitting on the floor with no movements and only her eratic breathing showing her alive status.

He stood right infront of her. Next moment the man behind smriti pulled her roughly and made her to stand unmindful of her shaking legs.

"Akshay This is inhuman ! Cant you see her trembling. What wrong did she do to suffer all these"

"That you'll know in a while baby".

He snapped his fingers at her.
"Tell it by yourself. Now." He said in his powerful voice making her flinch.

I was so confused . I really dont want answers now. Yes i need to know.but all i want is to free her .

"Akshay please.Remove those chains from her. We will go inside the house and talk. "

I was pleading him and he showed no heed .

Next moment my eyes popped in horror when i saw one of the security members handing a pistol to Akshay.

smriti saw that and was more than horrified.

She closed her eyes and covered her face with hands. She started shouting screaming and begging.

"I . i'm sorry. I. I will say now. Please.please dont kill me." She said between her cries and screams

"Then go on. Tell" He commanded.

Whats going on !

" I sent those..videos and photos. I manipulated it."

She said like splashing ice cold water on me. Why would she do that. This man almost choked me to death for that. I felt so shock that i couldnt even react.

"How dare you do that !!" He said anger dripping in his every word. He pointed the pistol towards her. My head started spinning .

No ! No ! I cant let this happen. I ran and stood before Smriti.

"Akshay. Drop the gun now. "

"How dare she mess with me ! She betrayed me. She made me hurt you when you didnot deserved it a bit. "

"How dare you bloody bitch " He shouted and kicked right at her knees.

She scrumbled down to the ground.

It was an horrendous sight ! I was more than terrified for her. This man could do anything in rage.

I immediately held her and made her sit properly.

"Akshay please! What she did is wrong. But.. but you cant do this to her. Listen to "

"Shut your fucking mouth bitch ! You took him away from me. You destroyed my life. You low class shit came and just took my love away from me. Dont you dare stop him. I will happily die in his hands rather living by your fucking mercy "

Smriti shouted and I was more than stunned ! She loved him? But what the heck did i do ? Go on then.die. for all i care.

Yet i dont want him to kill her.

Akshay looked stunned as well . I couldnt predict whats going on in his mind .

"I love you Akshay. I've always loved you . How can you not see my love? I have stood by you through your entire light and darkness of your life.I loved you with every bit of me and this is what i get for that. I'm willing to die in your hands but i will never live on that bitch's mercy".

Enough of her shit ! I can totally understand that shes devasted as she lost her love. But that wont give her the right to degrade me.

"You " i started but to be stopped by his voice.

"One more word about her !! "

" You are heartless Akshay. How can you treat me like this for a girl who have done nothing to you. All she wanted is to run away from you. Seeing your dark side she just wanted to run away. But i stood by you your entire life. I made sure to be there for you everytime you needed me. How can you forget all that?"

I dont know what her words made to Akshay. But it hit me hard more than it should. I dont know what i should think .

"You saved her mom. You did everything for her. But what did you get in return? Is she in love with you? No ! She hates you and you care for her"

"Comeon Akshay. Kill me. Shoot me right now. I deserve it for loving you. I deserve it for being there for you when no one did"

Akshay throwed the gun away hitting hard straight on the floor.

The frustration clear in his face.

"why havent you told me?"

"I thought im obvious. I thought im more than obvious Akshay. I had no idea that it will go out of your sight . "

She said tears flowing her eyes nonstop.

"Lets get inside the house" He said and walked forward.

Smriti tried to stand but couldnt move as her legs were hurt.

She again tried with hurt visible in her face. I really wanted to help her. But..

I was shocked to see Akshay picking her up .

He lifted her and walked infront of me. I couldnt even move. The sight pricked my eyes with tears. It shouldnt hurt me like its hurting me now.

I stood there like statue with my tears rolling down.

"Mam "

The security officer's voice brought me out of my shock and my legs just found its way to the house.
