When He Came

Chapter 43: The Trap



Aryan watched me carefully as I spoke those final words at Raj Hotel. He thought I was closing the chapter, walking away without looking back. But little did he know—I was just beginning to write the next one.

I knew exactly what was happening. Aryan was a pawn in a game much bigger than he could comprehend. My enemy was pulling the strings, twisting his thoughts, poisoning his mind against me. But what they didn't realize was that I had already flipped the board. The real game was mine to play.

As I sipped my coffee, I made my decision. I was going to trap Aryan—make him mine before he even realized what was happening.

Step One: The Unfinished Business

Over the next few days, I made sure Aryan felt my presence, but not in an obvious way. A glance here, a brief touch there, a cryptic text at midnight—just enough to keep him restless.

Then, one evening, I called him.

"Aryan, we need to talk. Meet me at the old bookstore."

Confused but curious, he agreed. When he arrived, I was already there, flipping through an old poetry book.

"I thought we had nothing left to talk about," he said, arms crossed.

I looked up, smirking. "Then why did you come?"

He had no answer. And that was my first win.

Step Two: The Emotional Hook

I started feeding his doubts, making him question everything.

"You ever think about us, Aryan? About how things might have been different?" I asked one evening, my voice soft, distant.

He hesitated. "Sometimes."

I sighed, looking away. "I guess it doesn't matter now."

That was the moment. The hesitation in his voice, the flicker of uncertainty in his eyes—I had planted the seed.

Step Three: The Perfect Trap

The final step had to be grand. It had to be something that would leave him no choice but to be mine.

And I had the perfect plan.

A few days later, I called Aryan in a panicked voice. "I need you, Aryan. Please come quickly."

When he arrived, he found me at a dimly lit rooftop, tears glistening in my eyes. "What's wrong, Sonakshi?" he asked, concerned.

I took a deep breath. "I made a mistake… A huge one."

His brows furrowed. "What are you talking about?"

I looked up, my voice breaking. "I never stopped loving you, Aryan."

Silence.

He took a step back. "Sonakshi, what are you saying?"

I closed the distance between us. "I tried to move on. I really did. But I can't. I don't want to lose you again."

Aryan was caught between logic and emotion, between the past and the future. And I knew exactly which side I wanted him to choose.

Then came the final push.

A fake scandal. A leaked rumor. A situation so perfectly orchestrated that the only way to save both our reputations… was marriage.

And just like that, the trap was set. Aryan was mine.

Rohan "Amazing"

Everything was according to the plan but the last step was actually very dangerous for me also. It doesn't went as the way I expected it.
