Arvika woke up with a start, the soft rays of the early morning sun filtering in through the sheer curtains.

She reached out for kids on her own , her hands fixing the blanket over them when she Yuvaan missing from his place. Frowning, she sat up and looked around the room, but he was nowhere to be found.

Curiosity piqued, she got out of bed and made her way to the balcony. The sight that greeted her took her breath away.

There was Yuvaan, standing near the railing, his hair tousled by the wind that was flowing gently through the early morning air. His eyes were fixed on the horizon, lost in thought.

Arvika walked up to him, the cool breeze tousling her hair as well. She wrapped her arms around herself, trying to ward off the sudden cold that had enveloped her. "Why are you awake so early?" she asked softly, her voice barely above a whisper.

Yuvaan turned to look at her, a small smile playing on his lips. "Once my sleep is broken, my heart can't rest easy," he replied, his eyes filled with a strange mixture of vulnerability and determination.

Arvika nodded in understanding, her gaze lingering on his face. They stood there in silence for a few moments, the only sound being the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Finally, Arvika broke the silence. "How much longer do we have to keep lying to our families about our marriage of convenience?" she asked, her voice tinged with sadness.

Yuvaan's expression turned serious as he looked at her. "As soon as I send the culprits behind bars," he replied, his voice firm and resolute.

Arvika felt a surge of pride and admiration for him. She reached out and touched his arm, a silent show of support.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through the balcony, sending a shiver down Arvika's spine.

Yuvaan noticed her discomfort and without a word, went back to his room. He returned a moment later, holding a thick blanket in his hands.

He wrapped the blanket around her shoulders, the warmth seeping into her bones. Arvika turned to look at him, her eyes meeting his in a silent exchange of understanding and gratitude.

As they stood there, the first rays of sunlight broke through the horizon, casting a warm glow on Yuvaan's face.

Arvika couldn't help but admire the way the sunlight danced on his features, highlighting the strong lines of his jaw and the softness of his eyes.

They stood there for a while longer, lost in their own thoughts and feelings. But their peaceful moment was soon interrupted by the sound of chirping of birds.

Their room balcony was big and spacious, overlooking a stunning view of the mountains in the distance. It was decked out with a comfortable bed, a cozy sofa, tables for dining, and a luxurious big pool.
