I screamed in fear when I felt something on my feet, something soft but also sharp.

" What happened madam ?" I heard a voice of a lady. Who I think is a worker here.

" There is something on my feet " I said pointing towards my feet but didn't dare to see it for myself. That thing is moving on my feet and I felt ticklish.

" Oh that" she chuckled and I don't know what she finds funny in this. Now I don't feel that touch on my feet so I looked down, and to my suprise found nothing.

"See madam it's just a rabbit" She said and I looked towards her. She is holding a cute rabbit in her hands who is looking at me. And a smile crept on my lips because he is so cute.

" What's his name? " I asked her softly, caressing his head.

" I don't know his name but sir calls him partner " she said.

" Which sir? " I asked her in confusion because it could be Udit or maybe that jallad.

" Hri...Hridyam sir " she said with trembling voice.

"How dangerous he is that even the people working here say his name with trembling voice."

I asked" Uss jallad ko itna pyara partner kaisa mil gaya gya? "taking him in my arms from her.

(How did that jallad get such a cute partner)

" Huh? "

" I mean your sir "

She told me the full story of how one day when he came back from his office he found him at the doorstep. He was sitting in a corner and shivering in the cold. And his leg was also hurt , so sir bandaged his wound and brought him inside with him, and since then he has stayed here.

" That jallad can be kind? "

" Maybe he could. It's just You don't know him well yet. "

" Maybe he could but how can I forget how mercilessly he ordered his men to kill Mahira's parents"

" Maybe he had his reason "

" Seriously! For the sake of his so called reputation he doesn't have the rights to kill someone so mercilessly"

"Maybe, we don't know the real reason behind his actions"

"There is a maybe. End of the discussion"

I settled myself on the couch with him

" What should I call you little cutie? " I asked, looking at his adorable face. "Umm...what about zorro?" I asked and he widened his eyes ( it's kind of their way of showing happiness and love) I hugged him and said " so from now on you are my Zorro" he also pressed his body more on me.

( Note - male rabbits have a friendly nature so they developed their bond with their owner soon. They are attention seekers. Widening eyes , lifting ears up, pressing their body more to you is their love language. They followed the command of their owner just like how cats and dogs do)

" Madam, what would you like to have tea,coffee or juice?" the maid asked me. She seems to be in her late twenties. She has a beautiful face.

"Mix fruit juice" I said to her with a smile.

" What about zorro..I mean him?" I asked her and she told me that jallad already fed him. After that she left to make juice for me.

" What should we do now, Zorro?" I asked him with a pout.

" Should we explore this house?" I asked and he reacted by lifting his ears up. " Ok so let's explore "

First we went to the kitchen where chefs were preparing breakfast. The kitchen has every kind of new technology,which is needed in there.Then we explored three more rooms here then we moved to the first floor. There is also another room except the room where I stayed last night. That room took my whole heart. This room is the best place in this whole house because it has two big glass walls and I loved it.

We moved towards a glass wall from where we could get the best view of the sea.

" See Zorro how beautiful is this view" I coed him and he snuggled into me more.

After spending almost half an hour there, we came back downstairs. I already had my juice and breakfast in that room itself.

Zorro suddenly jumped from my hands and ran outside.

" Zorro, Where are you going? " I yelled running behind him.

"Zorro, please wait for me.....I can't run fast in this saree " I called him but he didn't stop.

He stopped suddenly " Zorro what happened baby? " I asked him while catching my breath due to all the running. He gestured for me to look in front. When my eyes fell on the beautiful scenario in front of me, my eyes widened and my jaw dropped.

" That's beautiful" I muttered, admiring the view in front of me. The place is surrounded by various kinds of colorful flowers and there is also an artificial lake. It seems like this mansion has its own world. Beauty, darkness, nature and what not?

I felt someone pulling my saree. I looked down, it was none other than Zorro. " What happened Zorro? " I asked him and he made me follow him. He stopped in front of a tree,where there was a tiny grave. I sat down beside Zorro and read the name written on the gravestone.

" Partner's love "I said reading the name on the grave. Zorro hugged that grave and a tear rolled down from the corner of his eyes.

" Oh so it's Zorro's partner's grave....poor Zorro" I was feeling really bad for him. I caressed his head and he hugged my leg snuggling more into me.

" It's ok Zorro... that's life " I said to him. " Let's decorate your love's grave " I said and he widened his eyes in excitement.

We both were engrossed in decorating the grave,he got flowers and I decorated the grave.

"See Zorro how beautiful it's looking" and he blinked his eyes. He is so adorable.

We heard the voice of growling. Hearing this Zorro's ears went up in alert. I turned back and my heart beat fastened and a scream left  my mouth.

Meanwhile in HSW

Author pov

Hridyam was reading a file in his luxurious office. A big HSW logo is behind him made of gold and diamonds. His focus was diverted when someone entered his cabin without his permission.

" Don't you love your life?" He said in his cold voice.

"I love my life, that's why I made you my friend." Neel said, taking a seat in front of him.

" What do you want, Neel? " He asked but his focus was still on that file.

" An answer "Neel said, taking the paper weight in his hand.

" You know very well I don't like giving answers " Hridyam said in his usual cold voice.

" But today I owe an answer from you. You broke the first rule of the game Mr Hridyam Singhaniya '' Neel said throwing the paper weight at Hridyam but he easily catched it and threw it back but Neel was fast enough to move. That stone hit the photo frame of Hridyam and it fell down with the sound of a breaking glass.

" Your focus is still good after your first night " Neel teased him and he rolled his eyes.

" Why did you kill Mahira's parents? And most importantly you killed a woman which is against our principles.

" Do you trust me?" 

" That's why I didn't stop you last night...Now give me the answers" Neel said.

" I got to know two days before my wedding that they both are in child trafficking...is it enough?" Hridyam asked .

" But you broke the rule Mr Singhaniya, now you have to pay for it" Neel said with a smirk. 

" What?" Hridyam asked 

" You have to teach me Brazilian jiu-jitsu" Neel said.

" You can easily afford a teacher for it...why me?" 

"I wanna learn it from the master of this art" Neel said.

Neel very well knows that no one can teach him Brazilian jiu-jitsu better than him. Because he is known as the 'Devil' in the world of Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

" Now pick your lazy ass and get out from my office" Hridyam said in his raspy voice.

" You have to teach me Mr Singhaniya...or " Neel said with a smirk.

" Or what? Hridyam asked, getting offended by his tone.

" Or I will tell your wife why I call you Anarkali" he said and went outside of the cabin.

" Don't even dare you bastard " Hridyam said glaring at his disappearing figure

At night

Hridyam entered the house with a tiring look, his coat lying on his shoulders. It's 11 at night. He already had his dinner with his clients.He hatched water from the kitchen and drank. After that he moved towards his room. He opened the door and saw his wife and his partner playing together. She is giggling while playing with him. And a smile crept on his face looking at this adorable sight.

" Partner" he called him and they both looked at him. Finding him Zorro ran towards him and he held him in his hands. Ruhani stood up from bed and lowered her gaze. She felt a little bit jealous as Zorro ran towards him at just his one call. 

" Zorro" she called him and Zorro jumped from his arms and ran towards her but in the middle Hridyam called him by saying " partner". Now poor soul Zorro looked at both of them and sat in the middle and didn't bother to move an inch. 

" Partner come here "

" Zorro come here " 

They both said at the same time but instead of coming to them he ran outside from their room.

" You gave a new name to my partner....now you will get punished" Hridyam said in his cold voice.

" Puni.. punishment? " She asked with a trembling voice.

" Yes baby punishment " He said in his raspy voice taking steps towards her. She took her steps back and as her back touched the cold glass wall,shivers ran down her spine. She tried to move from there but he caged her by putting his hands on both sides of her shoulders. He bent down to her ears and whispered " Remove your kurti " listening to him her eyes widened. 

" Didn't you hear me? " He said in his husky voice and she could feel his hot breath on her neck. This proximity between them gave her goosebumps.

" Remove it now or I will tear it " he warned her. And she removed her kurti.

Her kurti fell from her fist when he sucked her neck. A moan left from her mouth. She can feel his smirk against her neck. He bent down and looked at the purplish mark which he gave her in the morning. He kissed there and just above it he took her flesh in his teeth and bit there harshly and a moan left from her mouth but soon she closed her mouth tightly by her left hand to prevent any kind of sound leaving her mouth.

He nibbles that area to soothe the pain and straighten up. 

"Now..." He was about to say something but stopped when his eyes caught a scratch which was on her collarbone. He looked at her but her eyes were closed because of their proximity. he touched that fresh scratch mark and she winced.

" How did you get hurt?" He asked her
