Chapter 266 - No Matter Who You Are.... You Are MY SISTER!

Ch-265

The man spoke for some time with Henry, revealing to him a few secrets about the things which happened in the past and how they were related to the present.  Henry was too shocked at his revelations. 

"I will be waiting for your arrival," he said and was about to disappear. 

"Wait… since you could do so much… Can I get any helpful medicine for the people injured in the factory?" Henry asked, making him laugh. 

"Why are you laughing?" Henry asked annoyedly. 

"You are innocent as before." He replied. 

"What do you mean?" Henry asked. 

"The fire, the call, and everything is fake." He replied. 

"What!?" Henry exclaimed. 

"Yes! Check your call logs… you won't find any recent calls. And… this is done just to awaken you. If I guess it right… when you saw the illusionary fire created by me… you felt that your body was on fire and even felt that you were getting burned. And saw a distant memory of you getting burned too… right?" He asked. 

"Yes…" Henry said without thinking too much. 

"That's because you died in a fire too. And you remembered that particular memory because that's your last moment." He said and disappeared. 

Henry looked around but found no one. Moments later he stopped searching for him as a chilly smile formed on his face. He was fooled and exposed t0 this cruel world. But the thought of his sister being in danger hurt him. What shall he do? Leaving here and staying here both could cause her death. But the presence of Bhairav could keep her safe. He should go back there and find the cause of her death. He should clear those enemies and return to her. Henry couldn't let that bastard find her. 

But…. He doesn't want to leave her. Henry shook his head in denial. This is going to be hard and complicated. And the way he got fooled made him angry but again… he was glad that he got to know what was happening around him and his sister. But did he accept everything? No…  He needs some time to accept everything. To him everything was superficial. Suddenly… he felt his whole body was aching badly. Not only his body but even his soul was aching badly. 

The space he was in started shaking violently. The walls of this space were crumbling down into small puzzle pieces. Space was disappearing slowly while his soul was turning into small tiny dust particles. He furrowed his brows and sat up straight. "NO!!!!!" 

Henry looked at his surroundings and saw that he was in his room. And now sat up in bed. Esther who was sitting beside him in her sleepy position startled awake when she heard his voice. 

"Brother?" Esther called out. 

Henry couldn't understand how he reached Benjamin's mansion. "How am I here?" he asked her. 

"You lost your consciousness and fell on the road. Security guards took you to the infirmary but the doctor asked them to take you to the hospital as the infirmary has limited equipment. While they took you to the hospital we were notified. But no matter what the doctors do… they couldn't find what happened to you. Grandfather came and forced them to discharge you. So... We got you home," Esther said to him, explaining the whole thing. 

"What time is it?" he asked leaning back to the bed rest. 

"10.P.M.," Esther said. 

"I slept the whole day," he muttered. 

"What happened? Didn't you say the factory had a fire accident? There was no accident and you got injured. Did something happen there?" Esther asked worriedly. 

"Nothing. It's the wrong alarm. I will take caution for the next time ahead," he said. 

The room was turned off. The only light that was entering the room was the moonlight. The darkroom glowed with the silvery light of the moon through his windows as the night breeze entered his room, brushing his hair slightly making him calm down. He felt peaceful but the question was… how long could he stay peaceful? 

He wondered if everything was a dream or real? He could only confirm it. But how? There is a way for him… but it's kind of awkward if he proves it's a dream. But awkwardness can be removed but not the danger around Esther. 

"Aadhira…." He called out, making Esther turn her head in a swish. 

"Alias Raudra Muki…." He muttered under his breath, making Esther widen her eyes at him, who was closing his eyes. 

"Wife of Bhairava…." He added opening his eyes, he looked at her, into her eyes, watching her expression. He saw her expression turning from shock to surprise. 

"The Queen of Kshatra," he ended his words looking at her, watching her surprised expression turn into a horrified expression. 

"Brother… What are you saying?" Esther asked as she looked at him composing herself. There were only a few people who could make her lose her composure. And Henry was one of them. He looks silly and funny, but only she knew he is as smart as Bhairava. Or precisely, even more, smarter than him. There was only one person who could match his intelligence, but she was nowhere to be found….. At Least for now. 

"I know! Don't you want me to leave?!" Henry raised his voice unknowingly. 

Esther's heart skipped a beat-making her feel sad. She knew it's wrong for her to make decisions for him without his consent. But… she has no choice. 

Henry scolded himself for losing his control over her. He closed his eyes and groaned slightly as he took a deep breath. 

"Leave… I want to take a rest," he said, holding his head. 

Esther felt her heart shattering into pieces but she said nothing. She closed her eyes and blinked away the tears that formed in her eyes. She can take even if the whole world scolds her, but not when her brother scolds her. 

"Little one… Come here," he called out when he realized what he did. 

Esther walked to him and sat beside him. "Brother is angry because he couldn't stand the thought of leaving you, Twerp. And because you have to suffer all these things alone," he said to her, caressing her hair. Esther said nothing but hugged him, burying herself into his arms as she cried softly like a kid. He lets her cry as much as she wants. When she stopped crying he cupped her face and placed a soft kiss on her crown as he looked into her eyes full of brotherly warmth and love. 

"No matter who you are… you are my sister. And only my sister," he said, making her smile. 

There was a long silence between them. Many words were unsaid between these siblings. Their gazes spoke, while their hearts did the same. The room is filled with the siblings' love and care. The tense atmosphere disappeared and was replaced with the gentle wind. The cold breeze brushed their skins making their body feel light. 

"Take care of yourself and don't depend on others to protect you," he said suddenly to her, making her frown. He removed the frown running his thumb on her brows. Esther nodded despite being confused. And this is her BROTHER! Who could care for her and love her despite her imperfections

"I met your father. The one from your previous life," he said.
