CVs are rushing the romance a little too fast. I'd have preferred it to be less hurried, but evidently they are planning something...
KB successfully killed... the wrong girl ! She gave a victory speech and all and failed !!
<Can't deny it.. I'm enjoying seeing her suffer like a mere mortal with criminal tendencies. She got away with WAAAY too much in season2 and 3...

Azaad is lying in bed, thinking about why he was thinking too much about Mahira. I should stop thinking this way about her. Actually I shouldn't think about her at all!
Mahira boldly (she really shouldn't have, boundaries girl!!) goes into Azaad's room to apply some herbal remedy she had made for him.

<You sure you wanna do that Mahira???>
But no, she calmly puts the salve on his forehead and he sleeps soundly as you please. Full on REM sleep. Off to Neverland.
Then came the problem.
She had to check if it was starting to work. His heartbeat would be stronger if it worked.
So she lay on his chest to hear his heartbeat.

Deathwish Mahira !

But she felt something, lying there , listening to his heartbeat. A kind of peace stole over them both for a moment. Mahira smiled, as Azaad took a deep breath of contentment.

Timebomb continued to sleep... and she got up happy that the salve didn't work. But then he opened his eyes,
What are you doing here...? <so calmly he asks...LOL>
"Oh nothing.. just checking on your condition.."
Why does that interest you ?
"But doing this really messed up my condition..."
Why?
"Because I'm afraid of you !!"

<<The exasperation was hilarious...>
Mahira tells him she has been researching him. His birthdate and time revealed a lot to her about him.
Your horoscope is very interesting!! It's not even humanly possible !!
<uh-oh>
You're very special !! You look like a villain, but inside you're a HERO.
You have a soft and innocent heart, and honest too. A pure soul.
You're not like you think you are.
Azaad decides he's heard enough, but she continues to convince him that he's good.

They fall upon each other and they are lost in each other's eyes. I think Mahira got a good look into Azaad's eyes this time. And boy did she look in properly. So much that he looked away first and got up.
"I'll help you!!"
"No... no one can help me..."

Mahira stops and looks at him intently. Something touches her about him, even when she is pushed out of the room she feels compassion for him.
They both stand on each side of a closed door, fighting inner battles. Mahira, a battle to help; Azaad, a battle to contain himself.

What was in that herbal cream?? He was so calm and agreeable to her !!
Or is Love in the air??
Precap: Mahira stumbles on KB burying the innocent bracelet thief. Her glasses fell off after she sees someone hiding in the garden. And when police arrive the next day, she looks like she knows something...
