Chapter 14:
Shivaay looked at the woman pointing a gun at him without any fear…
If she thought this will scare him then it’s her own fault for thinking like that…
The fact is Shivaay felt far from being scared…
Shivaay got life threats at least twice a month..
Shivaay got used to these life threats. He even felt some sort of thrill playing game with his life..
He felt even excited playing games like this in his life. Because there was nothing holding him back. Shivaay loved to play mind games in his business life. He loved to do business because of that reason too. To break an opponent is very thrilling. At the end of the day he would’ve won and be the top of everyone.
But this is different….
He was not scared but still scared…
He was not scared because he never feared death. He knew death is unstoppable..
But at the same time he was scared because his brothers are here..
Shivaay was glad that he had told them to be with guards and he trusted them to stay with guards.
And to break that trust into pieces, he felt them shout his name the moment she raised her gun pointing him, moving towards him..
Shivaay knew she wanted this reaction only from everyone. Everyone was frozen even the guards, afraid to move in the fear of her shooting anyone.
Shivaay knew he is the only target she want to shoot but he didn’t know why she wants that.
He hadn’t done anything to her or his business done anything to their family.
Why is she hell bent on killing him..?
But Shivaay didn’t move..
He cannot move…
Not because he’s afraid or anything..
But because if he moved away, he knew the bullet will hit anyone, most likely his brothers whom he expected and ordered them to stay in the back with the guards.
So Shivaay stood still, knowing that her aim won’t be perfect since she’s not a professional.. He could simply move his body slightly if it was aimed at his heart.
Many may think he’s entirely calm in this dangerous situation but Shivaay was used to this.
He was even famous for keeping his cool all the time..
Everything happened in a fraction of second..
Om….
That sentimental brother of his, pulled him away.
And to Shivaay’s utter horror Rudra, his child didn’t move away and was just staring straight ahead, horror mirroring his own face.
Shivaay felt his heart constrict and felt disgusted with himself..
He shouldn’t have let them come here no matter how much they argued to him about coming here.
A rage clouded Shivaay’s usually calm mind when Rudra fainted at the spot..
He’s the great Shivaay Singh Oberoi… And yet he had let Rudra get hurt while he was alive..
Then what use in being Shivaay Singh Oberoi is..?
Shivaay knelt and called out Rudra’s name and he could see that cut in his arm. Even if it’s not logical that Rudra couldn’t hurt more than that arm but still Shivaay looked at him over and over..
Shivaay knew the bullet didn’t hit Rudra fatally but the blood on Rudra’s arm was enough to drive him mad..
And you don’t want to deal with a mad Shivaay Singh Oberoi ever in your life.
Shivaay didn’t really care that it was a woman in front of him, all he could see was red and Shivaay never hated the color red ever before now he did..
His child,……
Rudra whom he had even set up monitoring while he was exercising to see if he got hurt or not…
Rudra whom he made such a fuss even if it was a paper cut..
His baby whom he had taken a vow to protect all cost even his life is now lying unconscious with a wound in his arm.
Shivaay marched forward towards that a thing called woman,…
How dare she…..?
Shivaay didn’t notice she had already been restrained or even took notice of the cameras or guards trying to resist him..
The nerve of her to touch the one of the only two beautiful things in his life..
Om knelt down beside Rudra along with two guards to check how the arm was and breathed in relief to see it was just a scratch. Rudra must have fainted in shock..
That’s when he heard a whisper very clearly albeit all the noise here in the room.
“I will kill you”
Om turned towards the voice to find Shivaay trying to grab the woman’s hand.
It was not a shout or yell…
Shivaay just as if it is a matter of fact..
“I will kill you.. How dare you..? My Rudra..”
Om could see media snapping pictures and writing the incident and recording them.
Shivaay grabbed Gayathri’s hand and Om got up immediately and restrained Shivaay, moving him away from her with the help of guards.
Shivaay’s voice raised and he moved forward despite this many people holding him..
“I will kill you… Kill you with my own hands”
Om hugged his brother tightly from behind to calm him down.
Om was frightened seeing this side of Shivvay. Sure Om too was angry with her and wanted to kill her but it was just a thought. Shivaay seemed like he will strangle her if they let go of him.
One thing only would pull him from this rage and that is…
“Rudra”
Shivaay stilled hearing him.
“Rudra is fine.. It was just a scratch Shivaay.. So please just calm down”
Shivaay tried hard to suppress the rage but it was so hard to not kill this woman in front of him..
No one really know…. But Shivaay knew to what extent he will go to protect his brothers. Shivaay saw her being led away by police and he saw one of guards came running with first aid kit.
Shivaay knelt down, cleaning the blood and dressing it before to take him to hospital.
“Not hospital”
Rudra mumbled unconsciously and even in this his hands searched for him and Om…
“Shivaay bhaiyaa… Om”
Rudra mumbled their name, Shivaay and Om along with help of the guards moved Rudra to car while Shivaay once in car, called the doctor to home.
Rudra gained consciousness when they reached home. All three brothers were silent, still feeling the impact of what could’ve happened.
————————-
Om sighed, leaning behind the closed door of his room..
His room always calmed him, looking at his statues and arts here but…..
It didn’t calm him now…
God….!
He and Shivaay had argued when Rudra is like this..
He didn’t want to think..
But he couldn’t help but feel sick about the past events after bringing Rudra home. Doctor had looked at the wound and even prescribed some medicine.
But Shivaay wasn’t satisfied and insisted on the doctor to do a thorough check up even taking complete blood test.
Shivaay was hysteric and no one in family could calm him. His dad saw Rudra was fine and went to his work seeing him fine along with Shakthi uncle.
Pinky aunty went along with dadi to pray for their family while Prinku and mom went to prepare Rudra’s favourite food when he wakes up leaving them behind.
Rudra was fast asleep due to the sedative in the medicine he had given..
That’s when Shivaay collapsed on the ground.
Om moved to comfort him and gasped when Shivaay stood up, moving away from him, teary eyed.
It was rare to see Shivaay Singh Oberoi to smile..
It was very rare to see Shivaay Singh Oberoi to laugh..
It was very, very rare to see Shivaay Singh Oberoi to shed tears..
And Om is witnessing the rare sight of Shivaay breaking down at the simple scratch on his brother’s wound and it confused him why he was moving away from Om..?
“Why did you do that Om?”
“What..?”, Om asked confusingly.
“I specifically told you two to stay behind with the guards? Why did you leave? You two agreed to that condition.”
“But Shivaay that woman was pointing a gun at you. What did you expect us to do..? Stand and watch what will happen?”
Shivaay seemed very angry at Om and his azure eyes burned with rage which Om could not understand. There’s no way they would’ve stayed put watching that woman pointing a gun at Shivaay.
Om alone know how horrified and scared he was when that woman pulled the gun out. God..! His whole world froze and Om didn’t even spare a minute to his thoughts and moved towards Shivaay.
“You should’ve stayed there Om.. And even if you reached me why did you pulled me away Om..?”
“Shivaay..? Have you lost your mind..? What did you expect me to do..? Yes, that’s what I wanted to ask you.. Why were you standing still even after knowing that the bullet aim was you? Did you want to get shot that badly?”
Om too felt anger rising in him remembering Shivaay standing still as if he wanted to be shot by that bullet.
“Yeah.. I knew when my brothers whom I told to stay back had moved and are standing behind me. If I moved out of bullet’s way, I knew one of you two was going to get shot”
Om cannot believe Shivaay…
How could he..? How dare he..?
“Shivaay…, what if you got hurt badly”
“I knew her aim will be off since she’s not a professional killer”
“Shivaay” Om yelled at Shivaay, “What if you calculations were wrong? How could you Shivaay..? This reckless? You’re not invincible?
“Why did you push me out of the way when you should have thought about Rudra and you might get shot and move him away..?”
Shivaay questioned him ignoring his questions.
“Shivaay.. What do you expect me to do.?”
Om asked incredulously.
“I want you to choose Rudra no matter what. You should have moved away, dragging Rudra along with you. I would have been happy if I got shot instead of you two.”
“Shivaay.. It is just a scratch.. Rudra is fine”
Choose Rudra..? What is Shivaay trying to say?
“Yes.. Luckily and I am thanking God for that.. But what if the bullet didn’t scratch and instead hurt him seriously? I wouldn’t live with myself if that happened Om.. In future, I want you to protect yourself and Rudra even if I am given poison or on the verge of death.. I want you to do that Om.. Promise me?”
“You’ve gone mad Shivaay.. How could you expect that..? Choose us instead of you? Will you do that when I am in danger?”
“It’s my job to protect you two.. You two don’t understand it Om.. You two are not of any threat but see now too you two are in dangerous situation because of me.. That lady is after me and you two are always put in dangerous situation only because of me and my enemies.. So promise me Om”
Om knew Shivaay is a little overprotective but this is going overboard.. Abandon Shivaay…?
“What do you expect us Shivaay..? We will not live with abandoning you.”
“Promise me Om?”
“You’re insane Shivaay”
With that Om stormed from there to his room in anger.
It hurt to hear those words from Shivaay. He didn’t expect this from his brother..
He will not forgive Shivaay for this..
Om will not forgive him..

Also from here this fic won’t follow the original story line. It may have some scenes but the story will differ from it so do not worry.
