Beauty And Her Beast (Book 1 in Possessive Series)

Pashika's Point of View:

Today is Sunday, and it is a beautiful morning with black clouds and thunderstorms in the forecast.

It appears that it will begin to rain soon.

Birds are flying around and enjoying their freedom...

Hmmmm, my life.

Sighing, I let out a sigh.

It is August 2nd, and today is Friendship Day. Everyone else is celebrating Friendship Day, but what about me? It is not like I do not have any friends. It is not like I do not care about them. It is simply because I do not want them to be a part of my dark life.

Oh! I apologize for failing to introduce myself.

PASHIKA SINHA is my full name. You can address me as Shikoo.

I am 22 years old and work as a teacher. I work as an English teacher in an orphanage.

I am 5'5", a fair and beautiful girl, and my beauty is a curse to me. My beauty has caused me a great deal of pain, which I will never forget.

But whenever I am around children, my pains fade away. I adore children, and teaching them always brings me peace. I am also at ease mentally and spiritually.

I am the daughter of NEIL and AMBER SINHA. Yes! In a nutshell, it is pronounced NEILAMBER.

I smile every time I say their names. I adore my parents, and their names are inscribed in my heart alongside their memories. Even their names are linked to one another.

My father was an engineer, and my mother was a teacher, just like me, but they are no longer alive.

I lost them in a car accident when I was 10 years old. It has been nearly a decade. They went to celebrate Valentine's Day, but only news of their bodies returned, so I hated that day as well.

Now I live with my grandfather MILIND SINHA, whom I affectionately refer to as Dadu.

He is a veteran of the military. My grandfather's pensions helped us a lot with my education as well as our needs. He is a great man and, in my opinion, a true fighter. I adore him, but I cannot express my feelings openly because it hurts to lose the person you care the most about.

Because I am a dark soul, I despise my life.

I have been cursed. When someone approached me, I was terrified and immediately declined the proposal.

My only family is now my grandfather, and I have no one else in this world...

My life is not as simple as it appears. I have so many dark and deep secrets that I do not want anyone to know about.

Only my grandfather is aware of it, and he forced me to accompany him to the temple today. So we are off to the temple. I am not sure why he always wants to go to the temple.

He is well aware that I do not find peace anywhere, not even in the temple. I am not sure why, and it is not like I do not believe in God. Because of my mother, I have a strong faith in God. She was religious. I recall her performing every pooja and festival with proper rituals. I recall everything correctly.

We hurried back to our house after visiting the temple and praying. It is pouring outside, and I am terrified.

Then, all of a sudden, our taxi collided with something very hard, and everything became blurry.

My vision immediately went black, and I was concerned about my grandfather.

How is he doing?

Is he all right? Then I crawled out of the taxi in search of my grandfather.

....

ARJUN's POV:

Sunday is not a holiday for me. I have an important meeting with my foreign client, Mr. Daniel Miller, and Davis Grey.

And my best friend Neil Khanna keeps calling me. I am driving at full speed, and it is pouring outside.

My phone is constantly ringing, and I am not going to answer Neil's call because I know he will curse me for forgetting an important meeting.

I was snoozing like a pig.

My bestie is a mystery, and he is not a very nice man. We have known each other since we were in our mothers' wombs, and Neil Khanna is the Devil.

Our fathers are best friends, so we are as well. That is why we do not need words to express ourselves to one another. We can tell what we are thinking with just one look.

We are brothers in spirit rather than blood.

That is why the media claims I am gay and have a secret relationship with my bestie NEIL KHANNA.

I am single and still a virgin. Yes, even my lips and heart are virgins because I am preparing myself for the future.

Being a virgin does not imply that I am sweet or gentle. People know me as a ruthless, merciless, and heartless man. A woman wishes to sleep with me, but I am a one-woman man.

I do not go whoring. I do not want to get involved with another woman who is not a member of my family.

I am still waiting for my beauty. My beauty is that somewhere in this world, there is someone special for whom I can do anything.

End of POV:

ARJUN was on his way to the company for a crucial meeting with his business partner and friends. He was driving to the company without his security.

Nobody could predict when their lives would take unexpected turns. Our ARJUN and PASHIKA's lives were about to take an unexpected turn.

ARJUN had a feeling something was going to happen in his life, but what?

"I feel like it is my life," Arjun was thinking as he drove his car when his car collided with something that hit his head.

"Sh*t! Sh*t!" Shit! "No way," cursed Arjun.

Arjun tried to hold himself together despite the excruciating pain. He stepped out of his car. For a brief moment, his mind went blank.

He was struck by the BEAUTY.

His BEASTLY Virgin heart was ignited by a strong sense of Possessiveness.

NEIL KHANNA's POV:

My Saturday night was a disaster. I was buzzed. I went there to forget about her, but nothing made my pain go away.

I was thinking a lot about things, or perhaps I should say about her.

I exhaled a long sigh.

Every day suffocates me. Every night, all I can think about is her. I am not even going to mention her name.

She was exclusively mine.

My Star.

My ruling star But it hurts to think of her. Because she betrayed me and broke my heart into thousands of pieces as if it were nothing.

I despise her for ruining my life. For making my life a living hell But she reawakened my Devil side, which I had always hoped to overcome, but not now. And I am not going to leave her alone.

Because I am a sinner. I am going to punish her for everything. Wait and watch, babe.

Sweetheart, I will undoubtedly come to you. Make your life as miserable as mine.

But I do not want Arjun to find out. He went above and beyond for me. For my anguish. He looked after me like a father, put up with my tantrums like an elder brother, listened to my curses like a friend, and dressed my wounded heart like a Mother.

"Knock! knock!"

A loud knock on the door jolted me out of my reverie, and I craned my neck to see her standing at the door to my cabin.

Porishma Das, Arjun's secretary.

She came in and told me about the meeting and, more importantly, that my partner in crime, Mr. Beast, was still not present.

This guy.

He was always getting himself into dangerous and unnecessary situations. It is not his responsibility to clean up our society, but he never listened to me, and that other person, Police Officer Rudra Singh Rathore, is Arjun's close friend, and they both give me headaches...

But there is no peace in my heart right now. It frightens me greatly, and God knows where he is.

I keep calling him, but this jerk does not return my calls. Porishma Di (elder sister) is also concerned about him. She calls him but receives no response.

I will kill him one day for such irresponsible behavior.

It is 8:00 a.m., and there are only two hours until an important meeting. Both of our clients are already here, eating breakfast.

Sister Porishma is frantically trying to keep everything running smoothly. She prepared for the next meeting, but he was not present.

ARJUN, Where the hell are you, man?

I am scared.

Arjun is not only my friend, but also my brother. He is the only person who listens to me without passing judgment.

A simple hug can sometimes make us happy because it reminds us that we are not alone, that we are here for each other, and that we will never leave each other's side.

That is why the media is reporting that I am Arjun's secret boyfriend.

'NEIL KHANNA adores ARJUN KASHYAP.'

We do not mind this kind of nonsense because it is better to associate your childhood friend with sluts.

Arjun is far superior to me in my opinion. I am single and not looking to date, but my bestie is desperate for his beauty.

My trance of thought was abruptly broken by a phone call...

For a few seconds, my mind went blank.

No! Oh God! Please, no.

Arjun is my entire world.

I can not imagine my life without him.

Arjun is my brother. My family!

....

ARJUN's POV:

I ignored the calls and continued driving. But why aren't my mind and heart at ease? Why does it appear that something is going to happen? Suddenly Aah !!

My head collided with the steering wheels, which hurt like hell.

Who the hell is he? Who does not know how to drive a car?

I quickly exited my car. My legs trembled slightly, and then I saw something I could not believe with my own eyes.

And the moment is frozen at that point.

Everything has been put on hold.

My attention is drawn to the sight.

It appears that this time is solely for us.

My mind is constantly wondering who she is.

Suddenly, my mind asks, "Angel?"

But my heart tells me, 'No! She is my BEAUTY'.

In the background, my heart is singing a song.

~**When I saw a girl, it felt like a blooming rose~**

"ARJUN, please take a break."

My mind constantly reminds me that you are not a teenager.

She is right in front of me. My heart is racing wildly inside my chest.

Her brown eyes were deep.

Her red nose was adorned with a nose pin.

Her luscious pink lips and tears.

Wait, what happened to my thoughts? Tears?

Yes !! She is sobbing like a baby.

Is she seriously injured? Who is she squandering her precious petals on?

I believe she is speaking to me or calling someone.

I am moving forward, closing the gap between us.

She is inconsolable sobbing.

I would like to hold her in my arms.

I wish I could drink her tears.

Isn't this a little much?

Drinking tears? Arjun, you are a jerk, and get a hold of yourself.

She, too, is drenched in rain.

She is also sneezing.

Her sneezing is adorable, as is she.

And now I am lost. My heart has gone missing.

And she is now moving away from me. WTF?

How could she? I am going to lock her in my room.

I became enraged all of a sudden. My heart was bursting with rage and pain, so I gripped her hand like a madman.

Our gazes collide, and she yelps in pain, I realize she is badly hurt, and I am also hurting her right now.

I am not sure why I did something like that for a girl I did not know or meet just a minute ago.

Man, you are a jerk! And she collapsed in my arms.

My JAAN (life) is in my arms, but not out of love because she is unconscious.

Aah, Arjun controls your BEAST.

And now my head hurts too much.

My visions are also hazy.

*Click*

*click*

*click*

When I heard the camera clicking, I turned around to see who was there.

Wow! It is fantastic now! The media has also arrived for exclusive reports.

'ARJUN KASHYAP, a great business tycoon, was involved in an accident'

'Is he serious, or will he live?'

'Who is the fortunate lady in his arms?'

'Is he secretly married, or is this his new love?'

I cradled her face against my chest. I clutched her close in my arms. I was about to move forward when I suddenly fell to the ground with my Jaan and everything went black. It is my fault that I was involved in an accident and am now stranded here without security...

Oh, my bad luck.

Everything is now dark.

PASHIKA's POV:-

The taxi driver is driving very recklessly. I have told him numerous times to drive slowly, but he is starting to irritate me. These male species, ugh.

Grandpa is sitting next to me, playing Candy Crush on his phone. And it makes me happy to see him like this. Carefree, but Grandpa irritates me a lot at times, and we are constantly arguing. We are talking about my marriage.

Yes, my marriage.

Marriage is a choice for me, and I have chosen not to make it. I do not want to marry and abandon my grandfather. He is my entire world. I know he adores me and that I am his final responsibility, but it makes no difference to me.

What is the point?

*Aaaaaahhh*

My train of thought was disrupted when my head hit the backside of the seat.

I screamed and clutched my head with my hands. My head is in excruciating pain. My vision is blurry, but I must remain strong for my grandfather.

Where is he? Is he okay? I am crying out loud.

I called him, but he did not answer.

"Grandpa! Grandpa! "Where are you?" I kept calling him, but he did not respond.

I am completely soaked and can not find Grandpa. A man suddenly appeared in front of me and stared me down like a creep.

I despise men like this.

He is staring at my face, which irritates me to no end. I can not see his face clearly because raindrops drench my eyelashes, and my tears make my eyes red and puffy.

I am trying to ignore him because my priority is my father, not some jerk who likes to stare at women.

I tried to move forward, but that creepy man grabbed my wrist very tightly, causing excruciating pain and causing me to wail. Suddenly, his grip loosened, and I moved away, but my head began to spin and everything went black.

....

At K & K Corporation.

Daniel Miller, Davis Grey, Neil Khanna, and Porishma Das kept dialing Arjun's number but received no response.

Breaking News:

"ARJUN KASHYAP, India's most eligible bachelor, was involved in an accident with his lady love." He has been admitted to City Hospital in critical condition."

Their hearts were broken when they learned of Arjun's car accident through the breaking news. They all dashed to the hospital.

In the intensive care unit, they discovered Arjun laced with hooks and wires. Arjun awoke at the hospital ten hours later. The first question he asked was about the deep brown-eyed girl.

But no one was aware of her existence. Neil and Porishma had no idea about the girl, and neither did the media.

"How was that possible?" Arjun's inner beast was on the verge of destroying the entire hospital.

"Neil! Sister! She was in pain and sobbing uncontrollably. I want to look for her. "Do something," Arjun said, his voice too powerful and deep for Neil and Porishma to look at him.

Everyone was curious about the unknown accident girl who caused Arjun to act like a Beast.

"Jun! I think it is also a good thing that there are not any pictures or information about her in the hospital. It will shield her from unwanted media attention", Neil said, and Porishma nodded positively.

Arjun understood Neil's words, but his beast was still determined to find her. He knew nothing about her except that 'it was love at first sight for him'.

He could recall every detail of their time together. She was wrapped in his arms. Her wet long lashes, chubby cheeks, red pointed nose with nose pin, and not to mention her pink fuller lips. He cursed himself for being unconscious.

"Neil! I have to find her. "I need her," Arjun said passionately, and Neil was taken aback to see his brother acting like a lunatic, but he understood how everything was going so well in Arjun's life.

Arjun's life was perfect, but one car accident had a profound effect on his mind, heart, and soul.

Neil let out a deep sigh.

Arjun was released from the hospital two days later, but he continued the search for that deep brown-eyed girl with the help of Neil and his police officer friend 'Rudra Singh Rathore,' but they knew nothing about her.

That deep brown-eyed girl was faceless, nameless too, but only Arjun saw her, and without a clue, they could not find her.

Arjun was completely insane. He was unable to concentrate on business. Even the project that everyone (Davis Grey and Daniel Miller) had decided to start was now in the freezer.

Arjun was aware that the girl had also been injured; how could she have escaped from the hospital?

Neil became concerned about Arjun, who did not sleep or eat on time. His health was rapidly deteriorating. His heart and mind missed her and wished to hold them in his arms.

FIVE MONTHS had gone by quickly. The month of December was coming to an end. even though the year was coming to an end.

Neil forced Arjun to leave his cabin and take in some fresh air. He wandered and ended up in front of a cafe. He walked in and chose a corner seat at the 'Cafe Day and Night.'

Arjun was hoping to begin his new day. He was rediscovering his former strength.

Arjun kept his gaze fixed on the street. He had no idea how to find the girl who had stolen his heart with her first sob. In frustration, he clenched his jaw and closed his eyes.

He heard a very sweet and soothing voice after spending ten minutes in his imaginary world.

"Good morning, Sir!" What would you like to have? We have a special brunch menu today."
