"As we stepped out of the hospital, the night air enveloped us, a welcome change from the sterile atmosphere inside. Veeranshu helped me down the stairs, his arm around my waist, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude towards him. I winced in pain as I put weight on my injured foot, but he was there to support me every step of the way.

Once we reached the car, he helped me in and started driving. The city lights blurred together as we drove away from the hospital, the darkness outside matching the turmoil within me. Veeranshu's silence was comforting, his presence a reassuring constant in the midst of chaos. I leaned my head against the window, the cool glass soothing my tired eyes.

The drive was quiet, with only the sound of the engine and the occasional passing of another car breaking the silence. I closed my eyes, letting the rhythm of the drive lull me into a state of calm, Veeranshu's steady presence my anchor in the storm."

"As we pulled up to my apartment building, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. How did he know where I lived? I hadn't told him, had I? And then it hit me - Veeranshu Rajput, the Kingmaker. Of course, he would have access to all sorts of information. I had Googled him, curious about the mysterious figure who seemed to be always one step ahead.

I couldn't help but think back to my Google search earlier that day. I had typed in 'Viraaj singh chauhan' and was surprised to find hardly any information about him. But then, as I looked at Veeranshu's piercing eyes, I realized that was HIM.
He was the same person, the same king from centuries ago. It was impossible, yet, as I looked at him, I knew it was true. He remembered everything from his past life, and that's why he was always one step ahead. No wonder he was called the Kingmaker.

I felt a shiver run down my spine as I compared him to Viraaj Singh Chauhan, the legendary king from our history books. Veeranshu was exactly like him - even he was more, so much more. His eyes seemed to hold centuries of wisdom, and his presence was commanding, yet gentle.

As we walked up to my apartment, I couldn't help but wonder what other secrets he held, what other stories he could tell."

And now, here we were, outside my own front door.

As Veeranshu turned to leave, I called out to him, my voice firm but measured. "We need to talk, Maharaja."

The word "Maharaja" seemed to hang in the air, and Veeranshu's entire demeanor changed in an instant. He froze, his back still to me, as if the mere mention of his title had rooted him to the spot.

For a long moment, he didn't move or respond. I wondered if I had made a mistake, if I had overstepped some unknown boundary. But then, slowly, he turned back to face me, his eyes narrowing as he regarded me with a calculating gaze.

"What do you know, Mahira?" he asked, his voice low and measured, as if he was choosing his words carefully.

I took a deep breath, unsure of how to proceed. But something about Veeranshu's reaction told me that I was onto something. "I know that you're not just a businessman, Maharaja," I said, my voice steady. "I know that you have secrets, and I want to know what they are."

Veeranshu's gaze seemed to bore into mine, as if he was searching for something. And then, to my surprise, he nodded, a small, enigmatic smile playing on his lips. "Very well, Mahira," he said. "Let us talk."
