The Claim

Chapter 3

"So..you..you'll hit me now"?? She asked mustering up every ounce of innocence in her eyes that made Behram shock for a minute, than he cleared his throat.

"I do not raise my hand on women.But I swear on my life I'll make it even .Nobody and I mean nobody ever dare raised even their voice at me let alone a hand. You'll realize your mistake very soon. I am a man of my word Miss whoever you are. I'll rip your throat out without flinching you got it"!!

He said harshly and Mahi felt her blood getting cold with fear.

She stood their numb..

"Do you have any idea who I am"?? He asked narrowing his eyes at her and Mahi's gaze landed on the clean silver pistol in the waist band of his dress pants and she gulped

What the hell Mahi. He has no right to say such things to you. He had no right to touch you and that is exactly why you slapped him so technically you weren't wrong. Don't let him walk all over you. Your religion doesn't allow any unknown guy to touch you....

You had every right to slap him

Or stop him if necessary

Don't be scared......

Her expression hardened looking at him and she matched his gaze.

"I don't care who the hell you are. You must be a criminal ,as you have a gun in the waist band of your pants ,I won't even flinch if you shoot me now. I can slap you a thousand times if you try to touch me .You had no right to touch me ,you are no one to me .You get that!!."

"Mein Behroz Khan ki pouti aur Waleed Behroz Khan ki baiti hoon.Itna asaan nahi hai mujhay dhamkana samjhay ap" (I am Behroz khan's grand daughter and Waleed Behroz Khan's daughter. Its not that easy to threaten me ,you got it" )

"Ap ka lehaaz karai hoon kyunk ap Agha Jan k mehman hain, warna bina jhijkay aik thapar aur laga sakti hoon.Beyghairat nahi hoon k koi bhi akar mujhay hath lagae aur mein tamsha dekhti rahoon ,samajh ai".

(I am letting it slide because you are Agha Jan's guest otherwise I would've slapped you again without hesitation. I am not shameless that anyone can touch me without my will and I won't do anything about it ,you understand me)

With that she pushed him aside and almost ran out of the room and Behram stood there totally shocked at her words. His face was a mask of fury

Her words were still ringing in his ears as he took a ragged breath and rage flowed in his system.

He stood silent thinking about her bravery. She has guts ,he had to admit that .

Oh yeah buddy she has some serious guts standing up against you!!

His mind teased him and felt frustrated all of a sudden.

He took one last glance where she was standing and stomped out of the room like an injured lion.

The night passed in a blur and Mahi didn't even breath about what happened to anyone.

Isra aunty and Agha jan were sitting in the big hall when the guests went to their rooms to sleep late at night and the rest of them left to their houses.

Everyone in the mansion was relaxing after a long tiring night and was about to sleep when Bablu came into their room as usual in a hurry and panting.

"Guys get up. Agha jan is calling all of us downstairs" he stood at the door panting hard and Mehwar frowned in confusion.

"What happened? Is everything ok"?? Everyone else was up to and Urwa was about to go to bed, she looked at Bablu with a glare.
