Chapter 2

Sara agreed to the proposal without any hesitation, raghav was shocked why would Sara agree to marry their sworn enemy, he decided to confront her... Sara was in her room raghav knocked on the door lightly.

Raghav - may I?

Sara nodded in a yes, raghav sat next to her on the couch..he took a deep breath before saying anything

Sara - what's the matter?

Sara said casually.

Raghav - are you serious? Don't you know why I'm here!

Sara - no I don't

Sara said in a calm tone.

Raghav - why are you doing this sara that asshole killed our brother and you are accepting him as your husband!.What's wrong with you ?

Sara - would you like some coffee?

Raghav was vexed. He got up from his place

Raghav - you've lost your mind!

He started stomping out when Sara caught his arm.

Sara - raghav sit!

Raghav settled back, Sara cleared her throat and said.

Sara - do you think I'm marrying him out of love or affection?, you know we need a push and this marriage will help us pounce back like a lion!

Raghav asked out confusion.

Raghav - what do you mean Sara?

Sara - I mean trust me! I know what I'm doing!

Raghav - but..

Sara holded his hand softly and gave him a assuring look

Raghav - I hope it works out.

Sara - it will!

Raghav paced out a little relaxed he knows Sara does everything for a reason but he is concerned for her after all she has to move in the wiknids mansion, he cares for her as a brother... But he decided to show trust on her.

In the wiknids mansion same contemplation was going on Louis and Mike wanted to know what made Roy accept bhishm's offer without much thinking,

Mike - you know she's enemies daughter right?

Louis - the proposal was just a front!

Roy - calm down brothers think it through we made it up but they accepted the offer, and their acceptance is enough in itself to prove that they ain't in a condition of war! And marriage means we have the grunjle's army too!

Mike - but what of it truns out on us!

Roy - you think I haven't thought of it!

Louis - then why brother? Why?

Roy - because the gains are far more than the probability of loss!

Louis - but she's going to be your wife?

Roy - you think I don't know what marriage means

Mike - will she be a good counterpart?

Roy - i hope she's pretty!

Louis - are you serious?

Roy - can't bang a hag!

They all started laughing, Roy is the future of wiknids all of them trust him but a bond with the enemy is like stepping in the storm! When his brother stepped out Victor came in (Victor is Roy's childhood best bud and also his advisor and secretary he is someone roy can buy on without a second thought)

Victor - are you sure it's a gain.?

Roy - do you have doubt on me?

Victor - no I'm just concerned about the other side!

Roy - I had a one on one talk with sezar, bhishm is dying Abhay is dead grunjle's have no future that's why they are making amends!

Victor - but you'll have a enemy in the house!

Roy - I know how to handle a woman well enough!

Victor - should never underestimate someone you haven't been around!

Roy - we'll see to it!

Victor - I hope it works out well!

Roy - it will!!

The discussion ended over there but roy knew he was taking a big chance letting a grunjle in their house!

Soon the wedding preparations started both of them had different roots sara was a hindu and Roy was a Christian the ceremony has to take place accordingly, first a hindu wedding then a walk down the aisle, because of the voilent streak of both the families they decided to get married some place elsewhere, both flew to remote island in mid west, both the families reached Roy was scrutinizing through the ladies which one of them could be his bride, but he came to know Sara went straight to her room she wasn't well feeling well, a day after was their wedding, Sara sat in her room weeping alone looking at her brothers picture, she was beyond upset by the fact that she has to marry her beloved brothers assassin, but denying this proposal meant carnage, she had no other choice, she made up an excuse to raghav either he wouldn't agree to the wedding, soon there was a knock on the door...

Sara - yes?

Sezar - there's going to be a pooled dinner by eight!

Sara - I'll be there!

He inclined his head in agreement and left.

Sara with a bemoaned heart went for bathing there ain't much time left in eight,

After a long rejuvenating bath took a white flowy gown with light printed flowers on it for the dinner she kept hair open with minimal jewels, by the time she was put together the clock showed eight she went in the hallway there was a dozen of maids and butlers parading in the hallway all around were equipped guards she sat near her father,

Bhishm - you are looking lovely

Sara - thank you baba you shouldn't be here.!

Bhishm - I'm fine, I don't wanna miss a single moment with you anymore!

He smiled at her with teary eyes sara holded her arm lightly passing back a smile, on the other end of the table seated Steven's, Roy wasn't here yet Mike and Louis weren't expecting Sara to be bewitchingly beautiful they passed each other looks as if they are in incredulity, soon a tall man, muscular built came in he sat next to Willson Stevens, Sara knew this must be Roy she glanced at him average features but mesmerising deep blue eyes, on the other hand Roy didn't looked at her yet, he was talking to his father about some business Louis nudge him and wisphered in his ear

Louis - the girl next to bhishma is your wife to be.

This is when Roy raised his eyes to Sara, it would be wrong to say that he was just impressed by her looks, he instantly felt something for her but then he reminded himself this marriage is just an agreement..

All of them had their meal in silence one by one everyone escalated to their rooms while Roy walked out to lit a cigar, Louis and Mike followed him

Louis - so brother did you liked your wifey?

Mike - well she is more than likable to be certain.

Roy - what do you two want?

Mike - perhaps an answer!

Roy - she's pretty!

Louis - wasn't a bad proposal to be honest did you saw her before, is that why you were quick to say yes to her father?

Roy turned around with a serious face

Louis and Mike turned pale.

Mike - brother we were just joking!

Roy cracked up too, it was a guffaw moment for them!
