CHAPTER 42
She feels some people's presence around her; she looks up and checks them all, and suddenly she feels a big palm on her back that is moving up and down, just to calm her racing heartbeat. She turns quickly.
Their eyes locked with each other; she saw him; she knew him—the same man whom she saw in the restaurant. She suddenly turns away from him. Mrityunjay also realizes what he is doing. And he is not in a mask either.
Mayil is unable to take her eyes off Mrityunjay's face at all. He also knows very well that the face, which no one has seen to date, she has seen, but this girl does not know anything about him. This is a huge plus point for him.
He immediately brings up the hard expression on his face and starts staring at her. She asks him quickly.
"What exactly do you want from me?"
Mrityunjay didn't say anything and gestured to his men to catch her and imprison her again. But immediately she understands his gesture, and before they can catch her, she runs away from there.
There is a forest outside the boundary of the mansion where there are huge fences, due to which no one can go in or come out. But after her release from jail, Mayil has every chance to escape to the island. In such a situation, she can hide well here.
Along with Ayaan, other men start running after Mayil. Mrityunjay is far away, and he stands just looking at them. Mayil suddenly stops and turns around, and as soon as those people come to her, she immediately sits on the ground and throws the sand, which goes directly into their eyes. All of them immediately start agonizing with pain, sit there, and hold their eyes.
Mayil had run far away, so Mrityunjay was away from her. He felt that his men would catch her immediately. But he did not expect any such thing from this girl. He immediately runs after her, but Mayil takes full advantage of the opportunity and runs toward the forest.
Suddenly, Mayil disappeared from his sight. Mrityunjay's heartbeat has increased a lot; he is getting very nervous. He knows that no wild animal is in this forest. But any kind of dangerous animal can definitely come by way of water; he is also aware of this fact.
"Mayil….."
But she has suddenly disappeared into this dense forest, and he is not able to find her. He places both hands near his mouth and shouts loudly.
"Mayil…."
She sits behind the bushes and can see him comfortably. He is trying to find her by running his eagle eyes everywhere, but he is not getting any glimpse of her anywhere. She doesn't want to make any sound of any kind. She doesn't know why this man kidnapped her, and she doesn't even know him. Just once, she had seen him in a restaurant from afar. Besides, she never met him. She's trying to stress in her mind that there's more to it than she's ever seen in this man.
Mrityunjay is fully aware that Mayil is hiding somewhere around here and taking advantage of the deep forest; she must be hiding behind a bush. He knows that he has to scare Mayil into coming out somehow.
He undid the buttons of the cuffs, rolled his shirt up to the elbow, and said loudly in anger, which sent chills down her spine because she was looking at him silently and hearing him.
"Look, I am telling you very lovingly to come out because if you do not listen to me, the punishment will be very hard. Again, I am saying it very hard. Are you listening?"
She covers her mouth with both hands so that no sound can come out at all and starts looking around so that she can run away from there by diverting his attention. He looks so dangerous now, and she wants to save herself.
She starts moving slowly with absolutely subdued steps, but a dry stick comes under her shoes and breaks immediately, creating a very loud sound in the environment.
He immediately turns towards her; she also sees him; both of their eyes meet each other, and as soon as she realizes he is coming towards her, she quickly starts running away from him because now she is afraid of his anger, which is clearly visible on his face.
But without any delay, he immediately comes in front of her and grabs her hand to cage her in his strong arms and holds her tightly very close to himself so that she can feel his breath on her face, and he eats this distance also and says in a very dangerous tone in her ear.
"Nobody can save you from me... You are mine. Only mine."
He didn't realize exactly what he was saying. She wriggles badly in his arms, and he is enjoying her situation with a wicked smile on his face. He sees Jagdish in her. She starts hitting him with her small fist and shouts.
"Leave me, you monster."
At this point, Mrityunjay has forgotten that the woman in front of him is Jagdish rather than Mayil, who is trying to get rid of him by any means possible. He only sees Jagdish and remembers the bad memories attached to him that haunt him all the time.
"Leave me…."
"I kill you every second. Every single second... You will torment me every moment, just as I was tormented... You have taken me away from my loved ones. I will also take you away from your loved ones. Then you will realize what pain is."
Mayil is neither able to listen to his words properly nor is she in a position to understand them. She just wants to free herself from him at any cost. So she immediately bites him hard on the chest. He loosened his grip. She quickly pushed him hard and ran away.
This place is small; it is not very big, but it will come to the same place after roaming around, which he knows very well. But as much as she can try to run away from him, the more she wants to stay away from him. He roars loudly.
"MAYIL…."
But suddenly she disappeared from his eyes again. He doesn't know what he's doing today, but he does know that whenever Mayil is out of his sight, he feels as though his life has turned away from him.
Suddenly, she can see the sea. She looks back, and Mrityunjay is about to come near her soon. She considers it better to kill herself with a better option than to be in his captivity again.
She quickly starts running towards the sea, She knows how to swim but has always been unable to swim for long. Mrityunjay has also understood her intentions very well. He quickly increases his speed, and within seconds, he catches Mayil. All this happens so fast that both of them are unable to maintain their balance and fall right there in the wet soil.
"Leave me…."
But Mrityunjay grabs her very well, forcibly gets her up from the ground, and immediately, carrying her on his shoulder, starts going to the mansion.
"Leave me…."
She starts shaking her legs and hitting his back, but as a result, she can't compete with his monstrous body. She cried at her fate and shouted.
"Leave me, you bastard... I have to go to my parents; why are you doing this to me? .... Papa…. Papa….."
Jagdish immediately opens his eyes, looks around, and hears Mahi's voice, like she is calling him. He immediately gets up and goes towards Mayil's room. He knows that Shweta must be sleeping there. So he opens the door very slowly, so that her sleep is not disturbed at all.
There is a very faint smile on his face after looking at Shweta, who is sleeping in the effect of a heavy dose of medicine. He looks around the whole room, filled with photos of Mayil with her parents. There is a photo of her from the day she was born until her disappearance because Jagdish did not want at all that even a single moment of Mayil's life should be left out of his eyes. He looks at her photos and says it softly.
"Next week, it's your 18th birthday... I miss you, my baby... Where are you? It's been 5 months and 26 days... The first time I held you in my arms when you were a few hours old... And... "
He is unable to even speak his words to himself, and tears well up in his eyes. He immediately leaves the room, as he does not want Shweta to get up from his voice by mistake, and again starts crying by remembering Mayil.
