As the vacation is over, Shivansh is going back to the company today. He has woken up early to do his daily routine and now he is getting ready in the closet. As the heat in Rajasthan has gotten worse so it's hard to wear a tie so he decides to skip it.



He walks out of the closet while buttoning his blazer when his eyes fall on Jivika who is sitting on the bed with pouty lips and sulky face. Apparently, she isn't happy with the doctor's suggestion who told her to be on bed rest for a few days because of the sprained ankle.

"Ab aur kitni der muh fulake bethi rahengi aap?" Shivansh asks sitting in front of his grumpy wife.

(How long will you continue to sit with a sulky face?)

"Aapko kya usse? Aap to bade maze se apne kaam pe wapas ja rahe ho. Mujhe hi is bistar par pure din pare rehna hoga." Jivika replies crossing her arms around her chest.

(What does it matter to you? You are happily going back to your work. While I will have to lie on this bed the whole day.)

"Ab isme hum kya hi kar sakte hain? Aap ko sambhalkar chalna chahiye tha." Shivansh remarks making Jivika to look at him like he has grown two extra heads.

(Now what can I do in this? You should have been careful while walking.)

"Achcha to ab sari galti meri ho gayi. Aapko kisne bola tha mujhe waise woh karne ko? Mera dimag sahi se kaam nahi kar raha tha to mera dhyaan bhatak gaya aur aa gayi moch." Jivika retorts without realising what's coming next.

(Well so now it's all my fault. Who told you to do that to me? My mind wasn't working properly so I got distracted and got hurt.)

"What did I do, Rani Sahiba? I am not able to remember anything. Can you elaborate in detail?" Shivansh asks looking completely serious but inside he is laughing hard.

"You know very well what you have done." Jivika replies looking away suddenly feeling shy remembering what happened on their last day of vacation.

"So, should I again transfer some germs?" Shivansh asks leaning close to Jivika whose eyes widen seeing the way her husband is teasing her. So, she takes a pillow and starts beating him with that.

"Aapko bada maza aata hain mujhe tang karke." Jivika remarks still beating Shivansh with a pillow who is now laughing loudly.

(You enjoy teasing me a lot.)

"Arey Rani Sahiba aur kitna maarengi apne bholebhale pati ko?" Shivansh asks holding the pillow.

(Hey Rani Sahiba, how much more will you beat your innocent husband?)

"Aap aur bholebhale? Aise mat boliye warna jo sach mein bholebhale hain unhe paap lagega." Jivika replies with a huff.

(You and innocent? Don't say such things otherwise those who are really innocent they will commit a sin.)

"Okay fine you won this argument, happy?" Shivansh asks taking Jivika's hand in his own.

"I will be happy if you bring those chocolates for me again." Jivika replies with a cheeky smile.

"So all these things just to get chocolates from me, huh?" Shivansh asks pinching Jivika's nose softly.

"I really like that chocolates. They taste so good compared to the ones which we can find in stores." Jivika replies while playing with Shivansh's fingers.

"Okay then I will bring them while coming back home. Now let's go downstairs and have breakfast. Because without feeding you I can't leave or I know you'll start throwing tantrums while taking medicine afterward." Saying this Shivansh picks up Jivika in his arms who wraps her hands around Shivansh's neck.

"It's not my faut that those medicines tastes so gross." Jivika replies leaning her head on her husband's shoulder.

"You just have to swallow them with water. It's not like you have to taste them." Shivansh says while walking down the stairs.

"Still, they are so big that I feel like they will get stuck in the middle of my throat." Jivika exclaims rolling her eyes dramatically.

"Then next time I will tell the doctor to give you small-sized medicines, okay?" Shivansh remarks putting Jivika on the chair while he takes his place as the head of the table.

"Why will I need the doctor again? She must be thinking that I am such a dimwit to get hurt so often." Jivika says.

"You're not a dimwit Jivi. You're simply clumsy." Ritika remarks making everyone laugh at the table.

"Hey! I am not clumsy. Right, Shiv?" Jivika asks looking at her husband while there is a pin-drop silence at the table.

"What did you call him, doll?" Geetanjali asks breaking the silence.

"I called him Shiv." Jivika replies shrugging her shoulders while Shivansh closes his eyes knowing what's coming next.

"Oho Shiv!"

"You let her give you a nickname?"

"Wow, the great King Shivansh is going to be known as Shiv from now on."

"It's a cute name."

"We need to throw a party on this."

Shivansh pinches the bridge of his nose while Jivika looks at everyone with confusion not knowing why they're reacting like this.

"Keep quiet everyone." Shivansh orders and instantly everyone becomes silent.

"Yes, I let her give me a nickname because that's what she wanted. When I gave her the nickname 'Rani Sahiba', she told me that she would give me a nickname too. Hence, she has started to call me Shiv for some days." Shivansh says putting full stop to all the questions that are going to be asked.

"But I still don't understand what's the big deal about it?" Jivika asks no one in particular.

"Jivu, your dearest husband never liked it when anyone called him by any nickname. So, we were shocked hearing you calling him Shiv so casually." Raghuvendra answers with a chuckle feeling happy that his grandson is prioritising Jivika like he should.

"If you don't like it then I won't call you with the nickname." Jivika tells Shivansh who shakes his head and puts a morsel of food in front of Jivika's lips who takes the food in her mouth.

"Rani Sahiba, you're exceptional. So, you can call me whatever you want." Shivansh remarks.

"Bhabhi, call him Yoongi. Both feel similar to me." Eklavya says while Ritika chokes on the water she is drinking.

"Bro!" Ritika exclaims while laughing loudly at her brother who is grinning from ear to ear.

"Now who is this Yoongi?" Jivika asks Eklavya.

"A grumpy cat." Kavyansh answers with a smirk while hearing it Shivansh starts glaring at Eklavya whose eyes widen in fear.

"You want my wife to call me a grumpy cat?" Shivansh asks still glaring at little brother.

"N-N-o-o." Eklavya replies while stuttering.

"Stop glaring at my innocent brother-in-law. Otherwise I will seriously start calling you a grumpy cat." Jivika scolds her husband whose eyes soften immediately.

"Then tell your brother-in-law to not joke around me." Shivansh says looking at Eklavya who quickly nods his head.

Shivansh has finally arrived at the company and his PA Yug is narrating some important things that happened the past few days. There are a lot of new deals which need to be taken care of. Although Pratap Singh Rathore and Abhinav Singh Rathore look after the company affairs too, but the final decision is always taken by Shivansh Singh Rathore, the CEO of the company.

"Sir, I need to inform you of something very important." Yug says while Shivansh looks up from the file in his hands.

"What is it?" Shivansh asks now giving his full attention to Yug who is looking pretty disturbed.

"Rudra Khanna." Yug answers looking at his boss whose eyes darkened in anger.

"So that fucker has finally got the balls to return to the country. Fine, let him take some rest as he must be tired after a long journey." Shivansh replies leaning back in his chair.

"But Sir, I don't think he is in the mood for any rest. He has again started to play his dirty games." Yug remarks looking unpleased with the situation.

"What do you mean?" Shivansh asks getting alert.

"From my sources, I have got to know that he has signed a million-dollar deal with the American Mafia where he will export 50 virgin girls to the US by the end of this week." Yug informs making Shivansh to clench his fists in anger.

If one thing Shivansh hates the most about the Underworld business then it is human trafficking. From the time he took the throne of the Mafia King till now he has stopped human trafficking in India. But still, there are many people who are doing this job and Rudra Khanna is their leader. This is one of the reason why Shivansh and Rudra are rivals of each other.

While Shivansh doesn't like human trafficking or drug dealing, Rudra has a immense liking to these two things. He needs different women every night to satisfied his inhuman needs as well as different types of drugs which makes him feel like superior to everyone.

However, due to the fear of Shivansh, Rudra had to fly away from India two years ago. Because Shivansh killed three-fourths of Rudra's men who were exporting some village women to Dubai in the name of giving good work.

Now after two years, Rudra Khanna has come back to India to take his revenge on Shivansh by dethroning him. But what he fails to realize is that a fox can only become prey to the tiger and everyone knows how much great a predator a tiger is.

"Why didn't you inform me before on this matter?" Shivansh asks glaring at his PA who hangs his head low.

"Sir, you said not to disturb you as you wanted to give your full attention to ma'am. So, I thought I would inform you after you come back." Yug replies knowing well that he has made a big mistake.

"This is not something for you to wait. This is a very serious matter and as the King, it's my duty to see that nothing goes out of hands. You're not only my PA but my personal bodyguard as well. So, you should know how much I hate tardiness." Shivansh snaps while his tone is getting harsh.

"Now listen to me perfectly. Cancel all the meetings that I have today and arrange for an immediate meeting with my trusted members of the Underworld for tonight. It's already too late to take any decision after discussing with everyone but still at least for a show I have to hold this meeting. Also, call the commissioner and inform him to meet me tomorrow as soon as he can. I have to put a full stop on every possible way to where that Khanna can get any help." Shivansh orders to which Yug nods his head and leaves the cabin immediately.

Meanwhile, in the palace Jivika is showing the ladies what she has brought from Shillong. She has already given the gifts to the family members as well as the helpers of the palace which they have liked a lot.

"What is it, Jivi?" Ritika asks picking up the Bhut Jolokia(Ghost Pepper) pickle bottle in her hands.

"Oh no, Riti. Don't hold this with your bare hands." Jivika exclaims with worry holding the bottle with her dupatta and put it back on the table where other things are present too.

"But why?" Ritika asks looking confused.

"This pickle is made from one the hottest chillies in the world which is known as Bhut Jolokia in Northeast and Ghost Pepper in English. It's too spicy that it shouldn't be hold with bare fingers, atleast for people who are not from Northeast." Jivika explains while everyone looks at her with a lot of interest.

"Wow, that's pretty amazing. But if it's so hot then how are we going to eat it?" Radhika asks.

"Chachi, we can take very small amount of the pickle and then mix it with our foods to enjoy it. Both Shiv and I have tried it in Shillong. It's spicy yet so tasty." Jivika replies excitedly.

"Jivi, can we get it online?" Ritika asks.

"Umm, I think because nowadays pretty much all the things are available in online. But I have brought two bottles so I don't think we will be needing more for a few months, or like a year." Jivika says showing the bamboo baskets to her mother-in-laws.

"I will gift my friends. They like to have hot chilies with their food." Ritika replies with a sweet smile while Radhika shakes her head knowing well exactly why her daughter wants to order the pickles.
