The news of Tanishka’s brilliant work at Aarya Fashion House continued to draw high-profile clients from all over the city. A few days after the incident with Samaira, a lucrative and massive order came into the boutique. A wealthy businessman named Kanishk placed a heavy order for an exclusive, custom designer dress. The payment was cleared upfront, with a specific condition: the final masterpiece had to be personally delivered by the chief designer herself to a secluded luxury location provided by the client.

Tanishka, focusing purely on her professional dedication, packed the gorgeous dress and drove out to the designated delivery address. When she arrived and stepped inside the venue, the grand space was completely empty. She walked in further, looking around the quiet room, but she didn't find anyone there.

Suddenly, out of the complete silence, a shadow moved swiftly behind her. Before she could even turn around, a pair of strong arms reached out from the back and wrapped tightly around her waist, pulling her flush against a broad chest.

Tanishka gasped, a sudden wave of shock coursing through her. But instead of panicking or fighting back, she froze. Her senses immediately registered the familiar, comforting scent of expensive cologne and the unique warmth of the embrace. She knew this exact touch.

A soft smile broke across her face as she relaxed completely, turning around right inside the embrace to throw her arms around his neck. She looked up into the dark, fierce eyes of her fiancé.

"Reyu..." Tanishka cheered softly, hitting his shoulder playfully. "What are you doing here?"

Reyansh looked down at her, his usual terrifying, cold mafia demeanor completely melting away in front of his fiancée. Yet, there was a lingering trace of protective steel in his eyes.

"Tanu... whenever you get orders, always check their background," Reyansh said, his voice serious yet tender.

Tanishka blinked in confusion, her brows furrowing. "But Reyu why... what happened?"

Reyansh sighed gently, keeping his arms securely locked around her waist. "The thing is... this order that you brought here was a trap. I tracked the person who placed this order the moment it hit the boutique. That’s when I found out he was dangerously obsessed with you. He saw you at a fashion show, and from that exact moment, his lust for you started. Today, he was planning to render you unconscious and attempt to satisfy his lust."

Tanishka listened, her eyes widening as the truth settled in. She knew about Reyansh’s protective nature, but hearing how cleanly he had intercepted the threat filled her with a sense of thrill.

She looked around the empty room again and then looked back up at Reyansh, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Ok... where is that person? Reyu, tell me what happened to him... what did you do, tell me, I am excited!"

Reyansh looked at her eager, excited face, and a cold, dark smirk played on his lips. He leaned down slightly, his voice dropping into a smooth, deadly whisper.

"R.I.P... Rest in Pieces."

Tanishka’s jaw dropped for a split second before a triumphant smile broke out across her face. "What! You killed him? Good riddance!"

"He had no idea that your fiancé isn't just a business tycoon, but a dangerous mafia leader too," Reyansh murmured, kissing the top of her head. "Shall we leave now?"

Tanishka nodded happily, wrapping her arm securely through his. "Yes... but I want to eat ice cream!"

Reyansh let out a helpless laugh, his terrifying underworld persona completely vanishing once again. "No..."

Tanishka stopped walking, looking up at him while pulling off her best, most irresistible puppy face. "Reyu... today please... agree to it na Reyu."

Looking into her eyes, Reyansh's heart melted completely. He raised his hands in defeat, a warm smile breaking across his face. "Alright, fine..."

"Yay! I love you Reyu, you are the best!" Tanishka cheered, jumping up slightly to hug him before they walked out of the empty venue hand-in-hand, leaving the memory of Kanishk permanently in the dust.
