PRATAPGARH:-
RUDRAKSH'S POV:-
I was in my chamber when suddenly my mother with my grandmother came inside and dismissed every attendant.
I stood up and signalled them to sit down. But my ma saheb said
"बैठने का समय नहीं है रुद्र। हम यहां सिर्फ एक चीज़ पूछने आए हैं। अपने उस धोखेबाज को यहां क्यों बुलाया है? आप जानते हैं ना के आज उस इंसान के कारण आपके पिता की, इनके पति की और हमारे बेटे की मृत्य....."
(It's not the time to sit Rudra. We are here only because we want to ask you something. Why did you call that traitor here? You know right that only because of that man today your father, her husband and my son is no mor....)
She was going to say but couldn't and stopped in middle.
"बड़ी मासाहेब, हम जानते है के हम क्या कर रहे है और जब समय आएगा तो हम आप लोगो को भी बताएंगे पर अभी के लिए आप शांति रखे और बिल्कुल चिंता न करें। आपको हम पे विश्वास है ना?"
(Grandmother, I know what I am doing and at the right time I will tell you also but right now please be relaxed and don't worry ok. You both trust me right?)
I asked both of them. They both nodded.
" हमें आप पर विश्वास तो है रुद्र पर फिर भी हमें ये कुछ ठीक नहीं लग रहा। हम बस ये चाहते है की प्रताप के सभी गुंहेगरो को सज़ा मिले पर किसी भी मासूम को सजा न मिले।"
(We trust you Rudra but still it's not feeling right. We only want that every person responsible for this condition of Pratap should be punished and any innocent shouldn't be punished)
She said and badi ma saheb nodded
"देखो रुद्र हम बस ये जानते है के इन सब में किसी भी निर्दोष से हमारा मतलब ये है के हमे नहीं लगता के इन सब चीज़ों में उनके बच्चों का कोई दोष है। आप समझ रहे है ना के हम क्या कहना चाहते हैं।"
(Look Rudra I want you to know that by saying any innocent I mean that I don't think there's any mistake of his children here. You are getting right what I am saying?)
Ma saheb said and cupped my cheeks.
"Ma saheb, badi ma saheb you trust me right just wait for 1 year and I will tell you my whole plan please"
I said and stood up and went to the window.
"1 year. What will happen in a year?"
Badi ma saheb asked but I didn't reply and suddenly a gasp was heard.
" 1 साल में नंदनी 21 की हो जाएगी। रुद्र आप क्या करने वाले है? हम नहीं पता पर अगर इन सब में हमारी बच्चों को कुछ हुआ तो हम आपको छोड़ेंगे नहीं। समझे आप?"
(In 1 year Nandini is turning 21. Rudra what are you going to do I don't know but I promise that if in all this anything happens to my children then I will not leave you)
Ma saheb said but I still didn't say anything and kept quiet and was remembering my moments with my father.
"देखिए रुद्र आपको पता है जब नंदनी की मां नंदनी को जन्म देने वाली थी तो उन्होंने हमसे एक वचन लिया था की अगर बेटी हुई तो हम उसका अपनी बेटी की तरह ध्यान रखे और देखिए बेटी ही हुई। रुद्र कुछ भी हो जाए पर अपनी मां का ये वचन टूटने मत देना ठीक है।"
(Look Rudra you know when Nandani's mother was going to give birth to Nandini, she made me a promise to her that I will take care of Nandini as my child only. Please Rudra if anything happens just don't let your mother's promise break)
Ma saheb said and kissed my forehead.
"अगर कुछ भी हो जाए तो भी हम आपका वादा टूटने नहीं देंगे। अब ये हमारा वादा है"
(If anything happens I won't let your promise break. Now this is my promise)
I promised her.
"Now you both go and start preparing their welcome"
I said and they both were going to go but suddenly an attendee came and said
"राजकुमार वो लोग पहुंच गए।"
(Prince they arrived)
Ma and badi ma saheb looked at me and left. I too left behind them and saw Shamsher Singh entering our palace.
Ma saheb to look natural welcome them but badi ma saheb was standing still and when Shamsher Singh bent down to touch her feet she just sternly blessed him but she meet both Rajvansh and Abhinandan with happiness. She was always fond of them.
I was standing on a side still.
But suddenly a voice of anklets came and I noticed a palanquin of red colour there. A girl in white coloured lehnga came out.
GOD!!!!!
SHE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
PURE GODDESS!!!!!
DAMN GOD BLESS ME TO HANDLE THIS MUCH BEAUTY AT THE SAME TIME!!! GORGEOUS!!! MESMERIZING!!! ALL THE WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN HER BEAUTY!!!
I WAS LOOKING AT HER LIKE SHE WAS THE LAST PERSON ON THE EARTH!!! I FELT LIKE THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND ME AND I HAVE ALL THE FREEDOM TO STARE AT HER ALL DAY. I WAS MESMERIZED BY HER BEAUTY!!!
She was too looking at me with the same gaze. Just the difference is that my gaze was so much intense that I got to know that she was feeling so self-conscious and so timid because she was trying to hide behind her brother whereas, on the other hand, I was standing like I own the whole world. After all, I did own the world. I am happy to know that I have this much strong effect on her.
I smirked. I was still staring at her beauty and suddenly my mother screamed with happiness.
"NANDANI!!!!! Is that you? Oh my god, she is soo beautiful. Nandani was so right that, Nandani is soo beautiful."
Ma saheb said and I was confused, Nandani was right that Nandani is beautiful. How does it make sense? Obviously, everyone thinks that they are beautiful right?
"Oh sorry I shouldn't have talked about her right now."
Ma saheb said and I asked
"Who ma saheb?"
"Oh sorry. I was talking about Nandani, Nandani's mother. Nandani's name is kept on her name."
My mother said and I was shocked because I only knew that her mother died on the day of her birth but never knew that her name was kept on her mother's name.
Everyone started moving inside when both Vansh and Abhi came and hugged me. I hugged them back because I still don't know if they are involved in this or not. So to look natural I did so and I really need a good best-friend hug right now. They are still my best friend till I get to know if they are involved or not.
After some time I and both brothers were talking when suddenly Nandani came and greet me with a nod. I nodded back at her. She came and told us that the dinner is ready. We all got up and started walking towards the royal table.
After dinner, I was sitting in my chamber when I heard an announcement made that Nandani is entering my chamber.
I stood up and started finding my kurta because I was too tired and sweaty I removed it and threw it somewhere.
I was finding it under the bed when suddenly I heard an anklet's sound and she spoke.
"यूवराज ये आप क्या कर रहे है? आप ठीक तो हैं?"
(Yuvraj what are you doing? Are you ok?)
And for the second time ever I heard her beautiful, melodies and mesmerizing voice. Ya for the second time because whenever they came here or I will go there. I always used to only talk with Abhi or Vansh and whenever I will try to talk to her then she would run away from me. I think it's because of shyness because we both know that she and I will be going to get married soon.
She would always call me Yuvraj because it means prince of the crown. Now I know this because one time when I was passing through her chamber I heard a few giggles and chuckles and when I peeked in I saw someone was teasing my princess. That time I would call her MINE because I knew that I would marry her one day. So they were teasing her about the name of some Yuvraj. I didn't know that Yuvraj was me so I got angry as hell. I was going to march inside but suddenly the other person said.
"Arre if you will call him Yuvraj in front of him then how will he understand that you are calling him?"
And my princess just blushed and said.
"I don't know but I will only call him Yuvraj. It doesn't seems ok to call him by his name 'ABHIRUDRAKASH PRATAP SINGH'. No no no I will only call him Yuvraj."
And I was flattered by hearing my name from her mouth. I still remember I was smiling the whole day and everyone was asking me what happened to me. Even though I don't know what happened to me but still.
I was thinking all this when I heard the soft voice of anklets. Suddenly a soft and delicate hand touch my naked shoulder. I turned around and asked.
"जी आपको कुछ चाहिए था? इतनी रात गए हमारे कक्ष में आने का कोई तो कारण होगा आपके पास?"
(Yes you want something? This much late night and you in my chamber, any reason?)
She looked into my eyes and kept her veil on her head only by which I can see her beautiful face and said.
"जी हमें आपसे कुछ बात करनी है। क्या आपके पास समय है।"
(Yes I want to talk to you about something. Are you free.)
"जी आप बताइए क्या बात करनी है आपको।"
(Yes you tell me what you want to talk about.)
She didn't say anything and I saw tears pricked in her eyes without saying anything she ran to me and hugged me tightly and started crying and saying.
"हमें माफ़ कर दें। हमें उन्हें शमशेरगढ़ नहीं बुलाना चाहिए था। माफ़ कर दें हमें। ये सब हमारी गलती है काश हम ने उन्हे नहीं बुलाया होता।"
(I am so sorry. I shouldn't have called him Shamsher Garh. I am so sorry. It is all because of me. I hope I shouldn't have called him.)
She kept crying hugging me and kept mumbling sorry to me.
So she was saying sorry because my father was attacked when he was going to her palace at her request and now she thinks that it was her mistake in this.
I didn't hug her back and kept my face and my body straight. She kept hugging me tightly and kept crying I don't know for how much time.
I wanted to hug her soo badly but couldn't because I don't want my feelings to overpower my revenge. I can't see her crying face. Something is breaking in my heart.
She nuzzled her face in my naked chest. And I could feel her soft petals like lips on my chest. She kept hugging me and crying like a child.
But suddenly she backed off and looked at me with wide eyes. I think she realised what she did and she was turned into a beetroot. As red as that. She kept staring at me or should I say my naked chest. I silently smirked at her.
She looked at my face in shock and covered her face with her veil and left.
She left.
SHE LITERALLY JUST LEFT!!!
I HAVE TO TAKE REVENGE NOW FOR MY FATHER AND FOR THIS TOO NOW!!!
BUT SHE JUST LEFT!!!
She left.
