This is my first time writing fanfiction. I hope you guys like and respond to it. I have created fanfiction with the name Heart Beat for the same, and it has few parts as well.

Information

This story is going to unveil Naira's reason for leaving Goenka House. There are going to be a few changes in the story.

1) Naira is going to be a businesswoman in Goa with a mysterious identity. She is going to be known by the name Lioness.

2) Naksh will know that Naira is alive and the real reason she left Goenka House.

3) This story is going to show some of Naira's fear like she is suffering from insomnia, triggers due to driving a car, and fire.

4) This story is going to be a bit different from the serial. I am sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings, it is just that Naira left Goenka House when Kartik asked her a question and did not clear the situation. Naira is living well without anyone's help (I know Naira has Lisa's help, then too), etc does not go well with me. I am not able to swallow such incidents and this is one of the major reasons I am writing this story. I am sorry if I cross any limits here, though it is not my intent.

5) I am Kaira's fan, like you all and want to portray their story in my way.

Some of the characters created by me are here.

Ajay Mahajan

(Business Partner of Kartik Goenka)

Xavier De Luca

(Brother of Lisa and therapist of Naira)

Shivesh Birla

(best friend of Naira and a businessman)

Chetan Kapoor

(business partner of Kartik Goenka)

Fizza Abbas

(hacker and friend of Naira)

Everything will be revealed soon. I hope you like the idea of my story.

Prologue

Naira

I was so excited to tell Kartik that soon we were going to become parents. There was no bound to my happiness. I still remember the moment when the doctor told me that all my results were positive and I am pregnant. I was sure that Kartik would go insane with happiness when he gets to know the good news, I thought while caressing my stomach. My hand was protectively wrapped around my stomach.

I felt a presence and turn around to see that it was my Kartik. "Kartik, how dare you scare me? You know I have a piece of good news for you." I pass him a shy smile and hop towards him. I noticed that Kartik was wet and soon brought him inside the room. I made Kartik sit on the bed and used the pallu of my saree to wipe out the water from his forehead.

"Why did you go out in the rain? Are you a child? You know we are ex-"I was cut off by the look Kartik gave me. He had a gloomy expression and soon he wrapped his hand around my waist and started to cry.

"Shh, shh. What happened Kartik? Please tell me." I kneel and look him straight in the eyes. "You are scaring me. Please say something." I slowly brought my forehead near his and pulled him in a hug while Katik was pouring out his eyes.

"Naira you, you do know that I love you a lot. You are my life. You are my heartbeat." I know that Kartik, what was he trying to prove by this. I nod at his statement. "Words, Naira."

"Yes, Kartik. I love you a lot, more than anything in this world." I confessed while running my hand through his disheveled hair.

"Did something happen between you and Mihir in the hotel room?" Kartik asked me. I was shocked to my core that my Kartik, my husband has asked such a question. How could he? Didn't he trust me at all? Kartik can't ask me such a question, I am sure of it. I must have heard something wrong.

"What did you say? I might have heard something else. Please, repeat it." I begged Kartik to repeat his words and he was looking down at the floor. Please, Goddess Ganga, don't let my fear come true.

"Did something happen between you and Mihir in the hotel room?" My body became limp and my hands which were cupping Kartik's cheek fell down. My hand forms a fist and I looked at Kartik with rage-filled in my eyes.

"I am sorry, Naira. I should have not asked this question. Had I not asked this question, I would have not been able to live? Please, once say that nothing has happened between you and Mihir. I won't trust anyone else, not Mitali (Mihir's fiance). Please, answer me Naira." I move backward and Kartik tried to hold me back but I slap his hands away. Kartik's words were ringing in my ears and I was not sure what was happening in the room. Everything else fades out and I turned to leave the room. My mind recalled how I met Kartik and all the things that had happened in our lives.

I took my car and the irony was that it had a love keychain that had Kaira printed on it while my hand runs over the word. Kaira is over, I thought to myself, as the question Kartik asked me goes back in my mind. While driving, I completely break down and I am astounded that I did not cry in front of Kartik.

"Kartik! Why? Kartik, Why? How could you?" I shout and cry a lot. Why did he ask such a question? We both used to trust each other a lot, then why? I don't know where I am going. I started to recall all the moments I had with Kartik.

A truck suddenly came in front of me and I tried to pull the brakes but it was like that they were jammed or the destiny didn't want me to live. My hand moved towards my stomach and I realized that I had to survive for my child. My eyes were becoming heavy and I dint want to give in but soon welcomed the darkness. My lost though was to Goddess Ganga, "please keep my child and husband save."

Naira thought that the brakes were jammed but the truth was far away from it. Somebody had deliberately failed the brakes of the car.

Unknown

"Boss, Naira Goenka is dead. It will appear to all that the car was hit by a truck and the driver was drunk, no one would know that it was a planned murder." A laugh was clearly heard from the other side of the phone.

"Very good. I have transferred money in your account and now leave the city for a few days." The man was very happy that he had finally pleased his boss while watching the car burn. The man's eyes were filled with glee.

A/N: I hope that you like the prologue. Please feel free to comment on any mistakes that you might find out. So, do you have any idea who might be the person that had failed the breaks of the car? Who wants to kill Naira and why?

Nightmare

Naira

Life had brought me to the same pain again where relations fall apart and loved ones are upset.

I never thought that I would have to go through these tests here.

How could I love with what it has done to me?

If it concerned others, I would have answered it.

Why should we question the ones we love?

The one who I used to swear by, suspects me now.

I am disappointed.

"Kartik! How could you do this to me?" I wail and cry a lot while driving the car. I had no idea where I am going. Only one thought is going around my mind, "Did something happen between you and Mihir in the hotel room?" Why did he ask such a question? We both used to trust each other a lot, then why? I don't know where I am going. I started to recall all the moments I had with my love, Kartik.

I don't know what happened next, just the car turned around. My head hit the steering wheel and blood started to pour from the left side of my head. My body was limp, I tried to move my arms but nothing happened. Soon, I feel suffocated and with a great effort, my sore muscles start to move. I bang my hands on the glass but all my efforts were in vain. I could feel the smoke and my breathing became heavy, it had become very hard for me to take a puff of air. Goddess Ganga, protect my child, please. Let me live this life. I felt giving to the darkness but I am determined to live for my child. I cannot lose another child, not after losing my firstborn. My eyes well up with tears. I tried a lot but I was not able to open the door. Soon, I saw the fire and I was lost in it.

I am transported to another scene where I am with Kairav. I see Kartik is asking me the same question again and again. Soon he appears on all sides. I tried to shield Kairav from Kartik but it was too late. Kartik snatched Kairav from my arms.

"He is Mihir's son, isn't he? This is proof that you cheated on me. HOW COULD YOU NAIRA? WAS MY LOVE NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU, HUH. ANSWER ME." I tried to tell Kartik that Kairav is his son and I did not cheat on him but not a single word comes out of my mouth. It was like someone has muted my voice.

Soon darkness sheds around me and I hear voices around me.

"Naira Goenka is dead." I heard laughter around me, not the good one but one filled with malice.

"No, Kartik no. NO, Kartik please believe me." I looked around and realize that I had woken up due to the nightmare. I let out a sigh of breath and drank the water. Thank God, my room is soundproof or else Kairav would have woken up and would have been afraid and worried. I tried to control my emotion but my efforts go in vain. I cried a lot and break my vow that I won't cry on spilled milk. I tried to get over Kartik's love but the reality is that my love for him gets stronger each day.

I was getting ready for work and prepared breakfast for Kairav. Soon, I saw my lovely boy emerging from the room, running in the hall. He had a lovely smile just like his father. Sometimes, I think and realize that Kairav is a spitting image of Kartik, I am jealous of the fact that he has most of Kartik's features.

"Mamma, today I am going to school for the first time. Aren't you excited?" He asked in his cute, chirpy voice filled with curiousness.

"Of course, I am, baby. My son for the first time is going to school, I am over the moon." I assured him while cupping his face.

"Mama, I love you the most," Kairav told me by placing a sloppy kiss on my cheek and I repeat the effort. "Ditto, baby."

"Mamma and son duo are the best," Lisa remarked and took a bite of the apple while I and Kairav laugh at her comment.

"Nobody can break our bond." I snort while looking at Lisa and ruffle my baby's hair.

Kartik

Today was the day I lost my naira five years ago due to my mistake. How could I have been so inconsiderate to ask such a question? I am sorry, my sherni, for breaking your trust. I let a single tear fall and bring on the cold hard face of the CEO and start to deal with the businessmen.

"It was a great presentation, Kartik." Naksh appreciated me and I offered him a small smile. I let out a sigh and my thoughts go back to my sherni. If she would have been alive, we would be celebrating each day of our life. I was brought out of my thought when I heard the ringing sound of the phone and I noticed that Naksh had left his phone. I look over and I am shocked to my core after seeing the caller identity.

Naira

I pick up the phone in urgency and heard the lovely voice of my sherni.

"Bhai, I have finalized the deal. Now, we have to slowly remove the remaining shares of Mahajanas from Goenka's industry. And, you know what, today Kairav had his first day of school and he was so excited about it. He even made the guard as his friend. I am telling you this kid is super active just like his father." I notice that the voice goes from chirpy to a serious one. " How is Kartik? He is not drinking again, is he? Bhai, if you feel anything wrong with him, slap him and tell him that I would have done the same. I miss him a lot." The phone fell from my hand and I am astonished due to the things I heard on the phone. I fall on the floor while trying to accumulate all the events that happened now.

"Bhai, Bhai. What happened? Please respond."

My Naira is alive, of course, she is, I used to feel it and I knew that our connection was strong. I have a son whose name is Kairav. Today was his first day of school and I missed it. My eyes well up with tears when I think of the fact that I was left out of my son's life. My mind tried to catch up and I send the number to my assistant to hack the number and tell me where the person is calling.

"Sir, the number you send me, is active from Goa." My assistant tells me after a few minutes. One thing I am sure of is that I am going to Goa and will bring Naira and Kairav, my son, back to me. I still could not get over the fact that I have a son. I am a father, I have a child to look after. I am elated from joy and want to shout to the whole world that I have a son. We are family and we had led a life away from each other for long and I won't let them go away for one second from me.

Naira and I would have our fights but I would make sure that Kairav will not be affected by it, Naira would be a part of it as well. She would also support me when it comes to our son. Some might think that I am too merciful but the thing is that I am a love deprived man, who just got back everything and I don't give a flying f**k what others might think. This is my life and I will live it the way, it pleases me.

A/N: Thank you for following my story, please vote and comment.

I hope that you all might like this chapter. So, what do you think will happen next? How will Kartik react? What will be Naira's response?
