Nevil : shhh....now accept me...coz I'm not giving you any other option...!!
Mayuri : huh?Why should I accept you?
You just picked me up...—didn’t even slap him.(Ex)
So no… I’m not coming with you…Because now he will understand that you’re not my boyfriend.
(He nodded toward the rear view mirror.
She looked—and her eyes widened.
His guards were already beating up her ex)
Nevil : My guards are enough for him…And for you—there’s me.
Mayuri : Why are you doing this? I don’t even know you properly… so why are you here, following me like this?
Nevil : Coz you are mine now.....!!
Mayuri : (was shocked) Shut up…My whole damn life is spinning 180 degrees... why didn’t you tell me you’re a mafia king...!!!
Nevil : (sighed) When did you even ask? And you posted that pic—I thought you’d hide my face before uploading it!
And in that moment, she realised the fault wasn’t his alone. So consumed by the desire to humiliate her ex, she had never even tried to understand who Nevil truly was—never bothered to look into the shadows that clung to his name. She let out a quiet sigh, not quite ready to admit her mistake out loud. Perhaps it was the nervousness... or the fear of confronting a situation she no longer knew how to control.
Mayuri : I... I thought you were just an ordinary man.....Why did you need to become a mafia king? (In a cry tone)
Nevil : (in his deep tone) Am I looking like a clown to you? I've been in the mafia world for the past 7 years. You, who entered my life for just a few hours, made me feel more at risk today than I’ve ever felt in these 7 years.
Mayuri : stop the car... I'm not coming with...
Nevil : complete the sentence I dare you.....
He spoke, his hand gripping the car wheel in anger, as it spun in frustration,she gulped seeing his dark expression
Mayuri : I don't want to enter your dark world, I just want to live a simple life....hum do humare do wali…!!
(Note : From the last line She meant that…She dreamt of a simple life,her,her husband and their two kids)
Nevil : What does that mean??? Can you translate the last line for God sake...!!!
Mayuri : (glared at him) stop the…
(He glared at her and she went speechless like a afraid cat)
Nevil : (while driving) If you don’t like my dark world, then I’ll create another world for you, just the way you want it, within it.
Mayuri : (felt butterflies) mujhe...i mean...What if you ditch me? Or what if you just used me?
Nevil : (paused and sighed) I don’t need to take you to my mansion just to use you—now stay quiet...!!!
Mayuri : Am I dreaming??
Nevil : (with a serious expression) you are living one....
Mayuri : (pouted) How long will I have to stay with you?
He spun the steering wheel effortlessly with one hand, his voice calm yet laced with meaning as he spoke.
Nevil : Until my last breath..and depends on who dies first.
Mayuri: (screamed) what!!!!!!!!!!
Nevil : (sighed) Looks like I’ll have to get used to your screams too.
After a while, they reached home. Behind his car were nearly a dozen guards' cars, just like the kind that usually trail a mafia king. One after another, the cars entered through a massive gate, right in front of which stood a grand mansion.
Mayuri: wooo....this mansion is so big....
Nevil : (sarcastically) Yeah, I practically need a train just to go from one room to another.
Mayuri : (rolled her eyes) Shut up,tum itne Ameer baap ki aulaad...
Nevil : (sighed) speak in english.... I'm not a Google translator.... mohtarma...!!
Mayuri : (gulped and spoke) no no....If I translate it, I might not be here next time to do it again.
Nevil : (raised his one eyebrow) then you probably.... thinking about our marriage??
(He teased her intentionally)
Mayuri : (scoffed) marriage? that too with a mafia like you....in dreams Mr..!!
Nevil : (smirked) and you are living the one.....
[Later, inside a room]
Nevil : You'll stay in this room from now on.
Mayuri: Why here?
Nevil : huh? Do You want to stay with me... in my room?? Think carefully... My level of control is low.
Mayuri : (gasped) I didn't mean that...arghh,you are so shameless...
Nevil : (smirked) tell me something new......
Mayuri : but if you try to take advantage of me.... I'll kick you...
Nevil : (chuckled) yeah,and the mafia king will cry like a baby, won't he...??
Then he looked at her with a done expression—who could crack such a childish joke in front of a mafia king? He couldn’t understand whether she even saw him as one. How could she treat him so calmly, so casually? But then it struck him—this was all new to her. She had no idea how one was supposed to speak to someone like him.
Mayuri : arghh,stop roasting me..
Nevil : it's called a sarcasm butterscotch....
Mayuri : (glared at him) Shut up...!!
[Scene shifts – Nevil’s secret room]
Nevil was sitting, deep in thought. Mayuri walked in and froze, seeing multiple screens on the wall.
Nevil: What are you doing here? You're not allowed in this room...!
Mayuri: I'm sorry, I was getting some threats under that post on my phone, so I came here...
Nevil took her phone, destroyed it, and threw it in the dustbin.
Mayuri: Nevil the devil… are you crazy?? Why did you break my phone??
Nevil: I'll buy new for you…(suddenly) Wait, what did you just call me??
Mayuri realized she had called him Nevil the devil, and with an awkward smile, she said,
Mayuri: It just slipped out in anger… sorry…
With a serious expression, Nevil grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her dangerously close.
Nevil: (intensely) That tongue of yours is getting too bold, lil kitten.
Mayuri : (tried to distract him) a…..What are these screens for?
Nevil: (released her hand) These show live footage from all the cameras installed in my private zone.
Just then, Nevil’s eyes narrowed as a few cars appeared on one of the screens, entering the restricted area. He leaned forward slightly and exhaled sharply.
Nevil: Now who the hell are these people? (smirking) Looks like someone’s walked in asking for a beating—and they’re definitely leaving with one.
Mayuri: (grabbing his hand) Wait... I think I’ve seen that car before…. that red one…
He glanced down at her hand holding his... then shifted his gaze back to the screen, his smirk fading into something darker.his smirk fading into something darker.Nevil ordered his guards to let the cars into the mansion.
As soon as the cars entered the front yard, his guards gripped their guns tightly.
A few men in black suits stepped out of the cars—it was clear they were the owner's security. Then, from the red car, a man (Moksh Oberoi) in his fifties got out,from the another car,a young man in his thirties (Yuvi Oberoi) stepped out and approached him
Moksh : Where is my daughter..?
Nevil : how would I know where she is,you are her father not me..!!
Mayuri : (came there & looked towards Moksh) dad…
Nevil, shocked, sharply turned towards her
Nevil: So, this is your father?
She nodded, her eyes briefly meeting his before turning to face his father.
Nevil : (asked) What brings you here?
Moksh : I came to take my daughter with me. How dare you have the audacity to bring her here?
Nevil: I'm the mafia king. NEVIL SINGHANIYA My courage is not up for questioning.
Yuvi : and I'm her brother!!! You think you can intimidate us with your mafia title?
Nevil’s expression hardened, his voice steady yet laced with menace.
Nevil : I don’t need to intimidate you. I just need to show you what happens when you cross me.
Moksh took a step forward, his gaze fierce.
Moksh : She is my daughter!!! And I'm taking her with me...!!!
Nevil (chuckled coldly): And you think I’ll just let her go? Never. She will stay with me now.
Without breaking eye contact, Nevil reached out and grabbed her hand, gently but firmly pulling her behind him.
His smirk deepened as he faced Moksh again.
Nevil: In my mansion, no one steps out without my permission. Remember that.Her breath hitched, torn between the storm brewing in her father’s eyes and the calm, dangerous authority in Nevil’s voice.
She stood still, her hand wrapped in Nevil’s. His grip wasn’t rough, but it wasn’t gentle either. It was firm… possessive.
Why wasn't he letting her go? What did he want from her?She was confused but didn't jerk
His hand,Moksh took a step forward,fury rippling through him.
Moksh Oberoi: You’re crossing a line you’ll never come back from
Nevil (deadpan): Then I’ll make sure the line never existed..
Her brother, Yuvi, pointed a gun at his head, but it didn't affect him.
Instead, in return, all of his guards, who were more in number than Yuvi's, aimed their guns at Yuvi
Nevil (Smirked) : entering the lion's den and thinking of killing him? Tch tch... such childish moves you're making.
Moksh Oberoi : Tell your men to take the guns off my son's head.
Mayuri: (interrupted ) wait wait...Dad Where did you two get the guns from, and who are these thugs?
Moksh and Yuvi went silent. After a brief, awkward laugh,
He replied replied:
Moksh Oberoi : Ah... well... I haven't told you this before, but I’m also involved in the mafia world. I have a gang that follows the orders of my boss
Mayuri : (screamed in shock) what!!! My family is also involved in all this.
Mayuri's life, which had been turning 180° according to her some time ago, now seemed to be spinning 360°
Nevil: (smirked seeing her expression) Princess, you had a problem with me being a mafia, but turns out your whole family is tied to the mafia world. Why didn’t I see through you before?
