Vidyut prayed before having breakfast. It's been 3 days since he has been with his family.

His family is so big if he starts counting. But in this haveli only his father's and Kaka's family and his grandparents live. Rest come frequently on some occasions.

" You are already 26, Vidyut. We were thinking about your marriage."

Vidyut's grandmother, Kaushalya, started the topic. Vidyut did not say anything and just smirked to himself.

" We have seen a girl for you. She will be perfect for you. She has class and belongs to a rich family. She will match your standard."

Ratan said.

" Yeah, once he gets married then only we can think of our children."

His Kaki, Tamanna said.

Vidyut clicked his tongue and finally chose to speak.

" I am not marrying anyone you chose for me and-"

He looks at Tamanna and continues.

" If you are worried about your children's marriage, do it. They are spoiled enough."

" Vidyut!"

His Kaka, Ajay scolded him for being disrespectful to his wife.

" I will be eating in my room. Make sure nobody comes to my corridor. It's a warning."

Vidyut literally warned his family before standing up and leaving. A maid will bring his breakfast to his room.

On the other hand,

Ragini squeezed her eyes hard and touched her forehead when she felt it hurting badly. She blinked her eyes several times to bring her vision back.

She licked her dried out lower lip and sat up with a jerk when she recalled a faded memory of last night. She looked at the direction of the window and realised it was morning.

She rubbed her eyes, wanting to believe it's all a dream. Her eyes filled up and she looked around the unfamiliar place.

" My friends?"

She looked for her phone but found nothing. Tears stream down from her eyes and she hurriedly gets down from bed before running to the door to open it.

The door is locked. She banged on it, cried while screaming for help but nobody listened. She ran her fingers into her hair, not knowing where she was.

Don't know who those men were? What did they do to her friends? Are they safe? Where are they? Why is she here?- These types of questions clouded her mind and she felt like fainting.

" Papa..mumma.."

She whispered, not able to find a way out of this room. She went to the balcony but the window to it was locked as well. She walked to the bathroom but found no way to escape.

At the end, she sat on the couch accepting her defeat. She stared at the ground blankly while tears did not stop flowing from her eyes.

" What..should I do?"

She stuttered.

She didn't even know those men. This place is unfamiliar to her. Those men were unknown to her. Why did they kidnap her and put her in a big room like a cage?

Around 10 minutes later, she heard a click sound indicating someone was opening the door. She stood up. Her heart beat increased, not knowing if it's her kidnapper or saviour.

She fisted her hand nervously as door started opening and her eyes caught the sight of a man, few year older than her. A muscular man with an authoritative aura smiled as soon he saw her.

She could sense a strange kind of fear from him and forced herself to take a step back. He locked the door after entering.

" S..stop!"

She managed to say when he lifted his foot to come near her. He stayed there.

" Who are you? Did you bring me here? Why? Where are my friends?"

She broke down while the man standing opposite to her, kept his cold look plastered on face. Yet his eyes were shining brighter as if he was enjoying her situation.

" Hmm, let's get you seated first-"

" Nooo."

She screamed at him. He chuckled slightly, amused by the girl.

" Pl..please let me go."

At this point, she knows he has abducted her. He stared at her joined hands before looking back at her face. His calm expression spoke many unspoken words.

" I have a family. My.. parents would be worried. Please leave me. I am nothing to you-"

" You are."

He interrupted her in the middle. She blinked her eyes, her eyelashes were drenched with her tears. He took a step closer to her. She stepped back in fear but he was quick to grasp her upper arm and pull her close to himself.

" Hamari nazron mein sama gayi ho tum."

( You have entered my eyes.)

He wiped her tears with his thumb. His voice was so calm and composed yet indicated danger to her. She quivered in fear when he tucked the strand of her hair behind the ear and continued.

" You did wrong stepping into my world, Angel. Universe played a sinful trick by sending you to me."

He left her arms, stepped back, stared at her for some good seconds before turning around and leaving without saying a word. She came back into reality as she heard the door locking sound.

" No.."

She ran to the door, banged on it many times but none opened it. She dropped on her knees and started crying hysterically.

" Maa, papa."

She uttered, pulled her knees close to her chest. She shouldn't have talked to him that day. He was right, she was wrong but little did she know? No.

Flashback.

It was the 2nd day of their trip. Ragini came for a night walk with Aaditya. He went to a nearby public washroom and asked her to wait for him in the park itself. Ragini was taking her photos in the park until she caught the sight of a man in a camera. He was behind her, 10 feet away and his arm was bleeding. Probably he wasn't aware as he was busy using his mobile.

" Excuse me!

Ragini went to him. He shifted his attention to her.

" Your arm is bleeding."

He did not say a word and kept staring at her. She felt his gaze odd and uncomfortable, still took out her handkerchief and handed it to him but he wasn't taking it.

Is he deaf? Maybe.- She said to herself and thought to wrap the handkerchief around his arm but the cloth was small for his muscular and buffy biceps.

" Oh-"

She looked at his face.

" Uhm, I think you should go to the hospital."

He again did not say a word. She furrowed her eyebrows and fake coughed before making a sign for him to understand. She slapped her forehead when she realised she was carrying a phone as well. She wrote something on it then showed him.

His eyebrows scrunched as he read the sentence-

Please, go to the hospital. Your arm is bleeding a lot.

" Ragini!!"

Ragini heard Aaditya's voice. She shoved her mobile back in pocket and gave him the handkerchief as his blood was on it. She turned to leave but didn't forget to look at him once again.

" Strange man."

Ragini muttered.

Flashback end-

This was the only incident she remembered. She didn't know he was this type of man. She should have understood by seeing his wound but again, she didn't know.

Her heart clenched as she thought how crazy her family must be getting right now.

That's exactly what was happening with Ragini's family.

" Where is Ragini?"

Rajesh Singh screamed at Ragini's friends who had suddenly come to his house without his daughter. Riya's eyes filled up and she told him everything. Ritima sat on the couch shockingly. Rakshit went to his sister's friends.

" Where is Aaditya bhai? He is not here."

Her friends thinned their eyebrows. One of them said-

" He.. When we woke up, we did not find him with us. We don't know where he is."

" Any idea who kidnapped Di? Do you remember their faces?"

Aaditya asked further. They gave a negative response.

" They were suspicious and were in black suits. I think they were bodyguards of some rich family. They all made us unconscious except Ragini. They did not even dare to touch her. This morning we were already in our city, in a hotel room with all our belongings."

Riitima started crying, holding her chest. Rajesh is looking so angry and crazy. He needs his daughter in front of his eyes, all safe and secure.

" We are sorry, uncle. We couldn't save her."

Ragini friends said.

" Call Aaditya right now."

Rajesh ordered and one guy dialed his number.

" It is saying.. the number is unreachable."

Singh family's first suspect went on Aaditya. Rajesh asked his son to come with him as he will be taking police help now. Two of Ragini's guy friends went with him. Riya and other two girls went to Ritima to calm her.

" We..we told her that she is not safe outside. We let her go for the first time and today she.. she."

Ritima couldn't complete herself and continued crying.

Meanwhile,

When Vidyut locked the door from outside, he saw a maid coming with breakfast. Hearing the banging on the door, the maid flinched and looked in that direction.

" Eyes here."

His voice was more scary. She gulped, knowing the possibilities of the Jaisingh family. Her body shivered and heart beat increased when she heard a girl's voice from the room. Still, she kept her eyes down on the floor not wanting to face the worst form of Vidyut Jaisingh.

" Take it back."

He ordered her and the very other second, she was away from his sight. He looked at his room door. The banging is long gone but the muffle sound of cries could be heard.

He smirked, recalling the time he met her for the first time.

Being the mafia, Don or Gangster he has many enemies. That day, he was coming back from work. Darkness was spread in the sky, not many stars could be seen.

He caught the glimpse of a car following him. He thinned his eyebrows and took out his gun from the band of his pants then loaded it.

" Stop the car now."

He ordered his guard. The car, which was following him, stopped as well. He smirked, unlocked the door of his car and came out and the very same second, a person from another car came out as well.

Vidyut pulled his finger back from the trigger when he saw a girl and boy in the park just beside him. The man, who came to harm him, used the opportunity and fired the bullet toward his direction. It was meant to hit his chest but he managed to save himself. The bullet went by passing his lift bicep.

The man left as soon as possible. Vidyut knew who was behind it. How can his enemies sit silently when they know Vidyut Jaisingh is back but right now, he has some other work.

He tucked his gun and covered it with his blazer.

" He is back as well?"

He uttered mockingly.

" Sir your arm-"

The driver failed to complete his sentence when Vidyut went inside the park.

He was looking around to get a glimpse of someone but couldn't. His mobile made a ring of notification and he opened it to check. It was a message from his younger brother.

It's not safe for you to roam with just a driver, bhai. Come home.

He chuckled in sarcasm, mentally.

" Excuse me."

Suddenly he heard a sweet voice. He flutters his eyelashes up to look at the person. It was a young girl with beautiful facial features. Her mouth moved which indicated she was saying something to him but he felt like deaf.

His gaze stayed on her face which was so angelic. Purity reflected her gaze. Sweetness dripped from her lips in the form of words. She is beyond beautiful.

He felt more amused when his heart skipped a beat as she tried tying a handkerchief but cloth was less for his bicep. She looked confused, amused by his body and embarrassed by her handkerchief.

She again said something but he did not hear a word and he knew it was making her think twice if he was deaf or what. He kept staring into her eyes. His eyebrows furrowed a little when she spoke in sign language. He did not understand a bit.

The time she showed her mobile to him, he realised she was telling him to go Hospital. He smiled mentally while she gave her handkerchief to him then left when someone called her.

You will be...

She turned to look at him and he smirked slightly.

Mine..

He completed his sentence and looked down at her handkerchief.

Then what else? He took out all the information about her.

" Do we have to bring her to you-"

The guard wasn't able to complete his sentence when Vidyut snapped his gaze at him.

" Dare to touch a single hair of her, you will be lying on death bed the other second."

The guards gulped as he threatened them.

Vidyut checked the time. It's been more than 2 hours since he left her alone in the room. Till then, he was in his office room.

He stood up, rolled up his sleeves and walked out of the office room.

Reaching outside his room, he unlocked the door with keys he had with himself. Well, he does not want to cage her like this but it is needed right now because his Angel will fly away if he makes even one mistake.

He stepped inside the room, closed the door behind. He found her sleeping on the floor. Dry tears could be seen on her cheeks.

He crouched down to her level, tilted his head to the side and slid her hair back which was hiding her beautiful face. Small smirk formed on his lips.

" Aisi sundarta..."

( This beauty..

He lifts her up in arms and continues while looking at her face.

" Sirf hamari baahon mein achi lagegi."

( would only look good in my embrace.)

Ragini stirred when he put her to bed. She turns to the side, facing her back at him and continues sleeping. A deep frown is formed between her forehead.

" Maa..baba.."

She mumbled in her sleep. Vidyut walked to a nearby couch and sat on it while man-spreading his legs. He leaned his body back and stared at her sleeping soundlessly even though danger is shadowed all around her.

She is surrounded by Mafias.

Every corner of haveli holds deep and sinful secrets for her.

She is in the haveli of Jaisinghs, still sleeping without any care of this world.

Vidyut wondered if she could sense his stare on herself- He chuckled at this thought.

When Ragini woke up, it was around 2 PM. She groaned inaudibly as she felt her head throbbing.

" Maa!! My head is aching-"

She stopped in the middle as she realised something. She sat up in a jerk. Her heart sank deeper and shivers ran down to her spine seeing him near a big window. His back is facing her and he is busy looking outside.

She gripped the bedsheet in a fist, afraid of him. His aura is dangerous.

" Good afternoon."

He wished her then turned around. Like always, a smirk was playing on his lips. She gulped and her eyes filled up again.

" Please let me go."

Vidyut chuckled sarcastically.

" You know the answer."

She looks down and tears stream down from her eyes.

" What did I do to you?"

He stayed silent.

" I don't know you nor am I interested. I just want to go back. My..my family must be finding me."

She wiped her tears and looked at his face.

" I'll do anything you say but just let me go. I won't tell anyone you abducted me. Please let me go."

She begged. He smiled.

The smile which depicted nothing but danger. Vidyut Jaisingh is a threat himself. He let out a soft breath from mouth.

" Stop insisting, Angel. I feel useless that I can't fulfil this wish of yours."

She sighed and asked.

" What do you want from me?"

He leaned his back on the window.

" You!"

His reply made her frustrated. She clenched her jaw, looked down and fisted her hand. Anger rushed down her spine and she felt like killing him but that attempt would be useless. He seems powerful.

Only if she had her mobile.

She felt him coming near her. He placed a food plate on the bed in front of her.

" Eat this."

She looked away. Silents tears are making their way down to her cheeks from eyes. Vidyut covered the food again, knowing she would eat once she reached the edge of hunger.

" Never let hope come into your heart. You can never escape. I have my eyes on you."

She looked at his face with glossy eyes.

" Who are you?"

Corner of his lip curved into a proud smirk.

" Business man and... Gangster."

Her heart beat raised in fear. No way! She had a bloody encounter with a Gangster who chose to abduct her.

Her gaze fluttered down to his hands and she caught the sight of his tattoos due to his rolled up sleeves. She thinned her eyebrows when she remembered his arm was bleeding that day. Means, he must have done some dangerous work.

Vidyut caught nothing but fear in her eyes for him. It would be a lie if he said he liked that emotion.

Ragini started imagining the worst things possible. Like why a Gangster would kidnap a girl? For rape? Trafficking? Sell? Or kill?

She joined her hands in a requesting manner.

" Please let me go."

Vidyut clicked his tongue, a little angry by her continuous requests but again, he cannot blame her. This girl is unaware of his world.

" Make sure you eat the food."

He said to her then stood up and walked outside the room. He did not forget to lock the door.

Ragini gritted her teeth, screamed and threw the pillow out of direction at the direction he went.

She ran her fingers into her hair frustratedly.

" I am sorry, papa. I shouldn't have insisted on letting me go on a trip. I am so sorry..."

She muttered while crying.
