Rehan learns about Pia's secret; Abhay's vows to protect Pia and Kshitij makes a plan to know about Alina's feelings .
Today was just another day for Dehradun, people of Dehradun un aware of supernatural conglomeration in the city were busy in their routine activities. But things weren't same for Kshitij. He had never felt like this for anyone else in his life. He had been with Pia as a boyfriend to the eyes of others but to him, she was just a friend and he knew things were same from Pia's side too. He had tried to talk to her so many times but Alina had ignored him like anything. He wasn't even able to start a conversation. He had a plan forming in his head from few days and he was really excited to test this age old "Jealousy streak" on Alina. "You cannot ignore me anymore Alina, Kshitij gets what he wants and he has not been ignored ever!!!!. Let us see how you control yourself when you will see me flirting with other girls??" Kshitij thought while getting up from his bed. He had Alina all over his mind last night and was more than determined to get her or at least convey his feelings to her today. He smiled watching his reflection in the mirror in his bedroom and thought "I am coming Love!! and you just cannot ignore me today!!! It is going to be a special day for me!!!" Too sure of his plans Kshitij headed towards the bathroom.
Witch queen and Werewolf Luna made their royal entry as usual in the college attracting eyeballs and even eye scanners of robotic teachers and gatekeepers of college. Though they knew keeping low profile was best in this college because they were aware of supernatural powers here, but recently as other supernatural powers and Abhay and Advik in particular had came to know about them, so they found it easier to play along. They spotted Pia sitting on the stairs of basketball court lost as ever. Even Sama wasn't with her. Since they had discovered about Pia, they were finding it awkward to start a conversation with her. Another stone in the way was of course Attitude king Abhay Raichand, who was acting like her bodyguard, always coming between them and Pia. Alina glanced towards Liana understanding her thoughts. They were heading towards Pia, but then decided against it and went towards the canteen. Liana was not interested in their first class of Prof Sanskarini so they decided to skip the class and enjoy themselves in canteen.
"Oh my God!!" Sama muttered angrily and kicked her car. It had ran out of charge in the way and she was now left nowhere grumpily waiting for a lift. Her hair were in total mess and she forgot to bring her super stylish designer cum stylist electronic bag with her in hurry. "Damn!! Only if that fool of my brother hadn't left earlier for that scumbag Tandon!! Now what will I do??" She was making faces and cursing the situation she had landed herself in when she heard a car horn. Kshitij was at his jolly and cool best today and happened to pass by when he spotted a girl standing at the roadside. He saw in digital zoom of the car that it was Sama and from her expressions it was evident that she was in trouble. He stopped the car, Sama almost attacked him, "Oh my God Kshitij Thank You!! Thank You!! So much!!.. My car has run out of charge and plea..." Before she could complete her sentence, Kshitij invited her inside. Sama squealed in happiness and jumped inside. Kshitij chuckled at her childishness and headed towards the college.
Kshitij parked his car and came out. Sama thanked him again and was about to go when Kshitij pulled her to himself from her waist. Sama's eyes became bigger than saucers at his sudden action. "What are yo...??", she could only whisper as he pulled her more close to herself. As soon as they had stepped out of car, Kshitij had spotted Alina sitting with Liana as usual, and had suddenly thought "This is the time!!" Meaning, he was trying to evoke reaction from Alina by flirting with Sama. "Just admiring you honey!! You are looking so beautiful today!!", he answered making Sama even more confused. Is everything alright with Kshitij? Did he hit himself on the head or had he suddenly contracted brain fever? Or is he drunk right in the morning itself?? He is trying to flirt with her!!!!
She asked confusedly "Me looking beautiful today?? Oh! Come on!! I didn't even have my face pack today and OK OK I am beautiful but today I know I am a total mess!! How come you suddenly became interested in my beauty??" she blurted without thinking. "I don't like when beautiful girls underestimate their beauty", he said while tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear. Few heads turned with this sudden public display of affection even Alina and Liana glanced too. "Humans!!" sighed Alina and again diverted her attention towards their conversation.
But a pair of stormy grey eyes were watching all this with a sense of intense jealousy burning in his eyes. Advik didn't like when Kshitij touched her bare back and leaned in for a kiss on the cheek. He felt like breaking away the hand with which he was shamelessly touching Sama. Until friendship it was OK, but what was this new development?? And how and why was Sama allowing this?
Why wasn't she stopping him? He was surprised at himself for such a reaction at this scene!! He mentally scolded himself and reminded himself that it was 2083, such things are no big deal nowadays. But still... still what??? He asked himself. He knew Sama had eyes for him but he.. well, he wasn't able to comprehend what was happening to him as he wanted just one glimpse of her face everyday to make his day!! A welcome change from supernatural Sherlock Holmes life!!!
Kshitij and Sama entered in canteen and Kshitij made her sit like a perfect gentleman and ordered food. Sama wanted to run away but she just couldn't because they were good friends. "A treat to all from my side just for you my love!!" He announced and whispered the last words in his husky voice while throwing a quick glance towards Alina who practically didn't pay any attention at all!! He was utterly disappointed at her reaction but decided to continue with his drama. "Maybe she is hiding her jealousy," he thought. But Sama was completely shocked at this. Now when did this happen? She was now sure that Kshitij has forgotten to put his brains in his head while stepping out of the house. He was talking utter nonsense. But she did not want to create a scene and get her friend ridiculed in public, and so she continued to sit with him, though moving a little away from him. But unknown to her, the pair of grey eyes watching her had now turned red in fury. "Did this boy just dared to call Sama his love??? And why is Sama sitting quietly with him as if it was the most natural thing for him to do?? Had she also taken a fancy to this boy now? But then, what about the love he saw in her eyes for himself. Humans!! They change at the drop of the hat. Why should Sama behave any different? And why is he so disturbed. She was just a pawn in his game. She never meant anything more to him. Then why is the possibility of her being in relationship with someone else playing havoc in his dead heart. They were never meant to be together anyway. She was just a weak human and he an ambitious vampire. She fitted nowhere in his world and his plans. Then why is he so bothered about seeing her with another male. Concentrate Advik. Concentrate. Do not forget your mission!! He sighed and went away from this disturbing sight to make more plans.

Pia, Pia and only Pia. This three letter word had filled the brains and captured the thinking of king of supernaturals - Abhay Raichand these days. Since the day he had come to know about him being a vampire and then human again and most importantly about his love and married life with Pia, all other problems forgotten, he was more than desperate to find out about the missing link in his memory. "What if all those things about me Pia and superiors are true?? What if Haseena was right? What does it mean then, the council played such a game with him, but why? Why did they need him in the first place, and wanted him so badly that they snatched away his love and human life again? And What happened to his parents - Chand and Haseena? Where were they? Why did Haseena's diary ended so abruptly. Did the council finished them off too, like Pia? Why?? But were they really behind all this,".. He wondered, but then another part of his brain replied, of course they could be. It would explain so many un answered questions. Like the pendant of vampire council member found at the old Raichand's House. And most importantly, his missing memory, as only vampires have the capability to wipe off someone's memory so completely.
He kept his hands on his temples and closed his eyes shut to control the brewing storm of hatred and anger inside him - Hatred towards the vampire council for playing such a game with him. His mind suddenly recalled the orders from Athanasius to kill Pia. Why had he ordered him to kill a petty human? Did he knew about Pia being the possessor of the ultimate powerful blood, or did he just want to make sure that he - Abhay Raichand continues to remain a puppet in the council's hands like he had been for the last 70 years but which position was being threatened by a mere human who resembled someone whom they knew he had loved beyond the boundaries of life and death and laws of nature. He wondered if the council knew this Pia to be the rebirth of the same old Pia or were they simply threatened by a petty human who resembled a girl who had loved their pet Abhay Raichand beyond any geographies of sanity and had even forced nature to change its course and unite her with her lover. Because that's what Pia Dobriyal had done for him. That was the strength of her love. But does Pia Rathod has the power to love this beast with the same insanity like Pia Dobriyal? Will she stand by him and fight the world, nature and super naturals for him? Well what was he thinking? This Pia did not love him. He would be a fool to even hope her to love him. He was not the same Abhay as he was in the past. He was truly a ruthless monster now. A monster who was meant to be feared not loved. Suddenly from some corner of his dead heart he felt a loathing for himself for having become such a cruel beast, but the next moment he cursed the vampire council for making the old Angelic Abhay Raichand into this monster Abhay. He vowed to find the complete truth and avenge the death of his parents if they were dead. Above all he vowed to protect Pia this time and never let any harm come her way even if she does not love him and he will make sure that one day she does love him. This time he would not let anyone separate him from his love. Not even Pia herself!!!
