"Everything about her was a lie", Aravinda Ray roared, stunning everyone in the hall.  Mainly his daughter, Khushi Amara Ray.      Aravinda Ray was a great business man in U.S.A this was known to the world.  But he was also a 1000 years old hybrid.  His daughter, Amara Khushi Ray was a tribird, with Magical, wolf and vampire powers in her.  She was a gift by a sacred witch coven to the Ray family.     When Amara was 2 years old, Raka, Amara's mother died, that was what everyone thought including Aravinda.   Aravinda single handedly nurtured and nourished his little Amara.  After 16 years, while the Ray family is celebrating their Amara's 18th birthday, Raka makes her appearance.  While the happy tears stringed in Amara's eyes, Aravinda's eyes burned with rage.  He felt betrayed by his wife whom he loved and still loves so much.  “Mom…you are alive and fine. Where were you Mumma, all these days.” Amara cried hugging her mom.  When Raka, opened her mouth to say something,  Aravinda roared loudly, “Everything about her was a lie. Don't even say anything with that sinful mouth of yours. I don't want you to feed me and my daughter with your stupid lies. Why the hell did you even come back? Why shouldn't you go on faking your faking your death leaving us to live our life.”  Raka sobbed hearing those hurtful words from her husband. She knows he will be hurt and will hate her for her act, but she no longer wants to live away from her family after defeating the storm that could have destroyed their little Amara.    Amara looked at her mother sadly and then at her father, “Dad let us listen to what she wants to say. Maybe there might be a reason for the act she did.”  Aravinda scoffed at her,”No Amara neither I am going to fall into her web of lies nor I am letting you.” Saying he dragged Amara from there, leaving Raka alone in the hall.    Raka understands her husband is not going to trust her again and welcomes her back into their lives.  And she also knows she did wrong, but fate had played its crucial game with her.  After giving birth to Amara. She learns her daughter and husband's lives are in danger by a powerful witch who was none other than her step sister, Maya.  She knows Maya was a powerful witch and Raka doesn't want anything to happen to her Husband and Daughter.  So, she made a plan with the help of a sacred witches coven who gifted her Amara.  She faked her death and waited for her sister, step-Sister who was gathering her powers to kill Amara, while she herself gained her powers.      And when Maya stood in front of her grave smirking evilly thinking she was going to win, Raka pushed her to the death and ended her life.         Later, Aravinda learned the truth and forgave her and lived happily ever after.
