Chapter 34: Chapter 34

Diya's pov

Am I dead? Am I sleeping? Why the ground under me was soft? Am I sleeping on a bed? Suddenly, I felt tickling sensations on my cheeks as if someone was caressing them. The touch was familiar.

Suddenly something snapped in my mind. Is it Manoj touching me? No, it can't be! I opened my eyes and without seeing the person properly I screamed at the top of my lungs," You bastard, don't touch me."

Someone pressed his hand against my mouth. I looked at the person with wide eyes. Tears stung in my eyes seeing the person. It was tears of happiness.

The person moved away his hand from my mouth and asked," Are you ok my wild cat?"

Yes, it was my husband. My saviour. 'Rudra'. I hugged him tightly.

" Rudra, he tried to touch me. He tried to molest me....you were right about Virat bhai....you...." I couldn't complete my sentence and cried out like a baby.

He cooed holding my face," Shh..shh...don't cry. You are safe. You are with me now. No one dares to touch my sunflower. Whoever tried to touch you I will show them the lowest part of hell."

I kept hiccuping. Rudra was patiently holding me in his embrace. After a few moments, I relaxed and looked at him. His eyes were showing concern, love and worry.

I asked," How did you find me? I have lost my phone. How did you trace my location?"

He smiled at me and gave me a glass of water," First drink this water and eat your food then we can talk."

I chugged down the water. Gosh! I was thirsty. He started feeding me with utmost care. I was so devastated that I forget that I was starving for more than a day.

I also noticed that my feet were bandaged. He gave me some medicine to take and I obliged his every word.

Then he laid me down on the bed and said softly," Now, take a rest. We will talk about everything later".

Saying that he tried to stand up from the bed when I held his hand. He looked at me with questioning eyes.

He sat down on the bed and asked," What happened my sunflower?"

" How did you find me?" I asked holding his hand.

" Such a curious baby," he chuckled. " I was always there with you!"

I frowned my brows and asked confusingly," I didn't get you."

He smiled and touched the R alphabet pendant on my neck which he gave me a few days ago.

" Are you seeing this? It's not just a pendant. It's a tracking device," he revealed.

I looked at him with disbelief. I never imagined that it can be some kind of tracking device. But why did he give me a tracking device?

" So, you were keeping eyes on me? You thought I will run away," I asked pouting my lips.

"Oh, my sunflower! Why do you always misunderstand me? Let me tell you everything," Rudra kissed my right hand.

I don't know why I was liking his every touch. Maybe I have fallen for him! I didn't think further and concentrated on his words.

He asked," Do you remember that day when you and Lavanya went shopping?"

" Yeah, I remember," I nodded my head.

He started explaining," That day, after our argument I was missing you too much. I was thinking what if you escape from me? That's why I went to check on you."

" I was sitting in my car and observing you. I noticed a car that was going to bump you. I came out of my car to save you but before I could get there I saw Manoj. I halted there and saw that he saved you from an accident," He paused for a few seconds.

" And I also saw you talking to him. I was searching for him to kill him. But that day I forget to bring my gun with me. Moreover, I saw him with his gang members that's why I didn't take any risk," He continued explaining.

" When you left the place I noticed his face. He was checking you like you were naked in front of him. I was feeling like killing him. But I composed myself for the right time. And I understood that something evil was cooking in his mind and that's why I gave you that pendant so that I could keep an eye on you."

He completed the whole story. I sat back on the bed and hugged him again.

I was overwhelmed, "You care for me that much but misunderstood you every time. I am sorry."

He cupped my face between his big palms and kissed my lips lightly.

Then he said," How can I not care for you? You are my sunflower."

I also kissed his lips softly and smiled at him. We were staring into each other's eyes when I remembered Manoj's words.

" But, Manoj said you were a bully in...." I couldn't complete my sentence when Rudra said, " So, he had lied to you. As expected."

" I will tell you everything. But, right now you should take a rest. I have some unfinished business to take care of."

Saying that he again pecked my lips and laid me down on the bed. Kissing my forehead he left.

Author's pov

A man was tied up with ropes in a chair inside a dark room. The room was looking like a torture cell.

Two people were beating him and asking him only one question," Where is Manoj?"

The man coughed blood," I don't know."

Then a voice came from behind," Cut his hand right now."

The two people turn around and one of them said," Rudra Bhai, this asshole doesn't know anything!"

Yes, Rudra captured one of the guards and another one was spotted dead because of a gunshot by Rudra.

Rudra said," I know very well. This motherfucker doesn't know anything. He is only a guard. But he has touched my wife. He dared to touch Rudra Pratap's sunflower. Cut his both hands right now and then kill him by loading all the bullets in his head."

The man started yelling and apologizing to Rudra. He remembered Diya's words if Rudra comes to know that he had touched Diya then he will cut his hands. And that's exactly what Rudra was doing.

Akhil said," Yes, bhai."

Jay informed," But bhai, Manoj has slipped from our hand again."

Rudra growled," Let that bastard hide wherever he wants. I will find him anyhow and will kill him with my own hands. He didn't do the right thing by kidnapping my sunflower."

Saying that Rudra left the torture cell. And then only that man's screaming could be heard for the next few hours.

At Tyagi house

A doctor was checking on Manoj's wounds. Manoj was looking fuming in rage. His eyes were bloodshot as if he would kill anyone right now.

Another doctor was checking on his balls. The doctor hissed looking at Manoj's balls.

" Sir, you are lucky that the kick wasn't that hard," The doctor sounded pitiful.

Manoj glared at the doctor who zipped his mouth instantly.

Manoj shouted," That bitch has kicked me. How dare she! She even made me a fool. This bitch is too much clever. I will not let her go so easily. Next time I will chain her so tightly and will fuck her so hard that she will never try to kick someone."

Manoj was shouting and hissing in pain whenever the doctor was stitching his wounds.

Then one of his men came to Manoj's room and said," Boss, Dheeraj Rayna is here. He wants to meet you".

Listening to Dhiraj's name a crooked smile formed on Manoj's face.

" Let him come inside. And send some alcohol. We have many things to discuss!"
