Daksina entered into the hall, and everyone's attention went on her as she was looking stunning in her red dress which she made early in the morning.

She was wearing a cloak and inside of it a beautiful red blouse and dhoti with golden lining was glittering over her slim and brown skin. Where the mask was made up of net, hiding her beautiful face.

A smirk was ruling over her lips as she was ready to make everyone shock and ruin his image in front of his guest. The girls in white dress who were just standing beside her started to dance.

Daksina saw everyone as she stepped into the middle of dancers. She saw everyone but neither noticed Davendra who was staring into her soul.

The musician stopped the music and started to play the music which Daksina asked them to play.

As the music started, Daksina removed the cloak and everyone got stunned as she was wearing a blood red coloured dress.

[ Music- ek to kam zindgaani usse bhee kam hai javanee ek to kam zindgaani usse bhee kam hai javanee

jab tak josh mein javanee jab tak koon mein ravaani jab tak josh mein javanee jab tak koon mein ravaani muje hosh mein aanae naa do

pyaar do, pyaar lo pyaar do-do, pyaar

( Song from - Marjawan) ]

Everyone's face got red as her dance was sassy and mouth watering. She danced as filthy in their sense she could as she was not their generation girl and she knew how to make them cringe.

On the other hand, everyone was so shame watching her dancing and winking. She was feeling like she won. Meanwhile, Prisha was still in shock. She stood and ran towards Megha who was in shock too.

" What is happening, Megha? Why suddenly the dance changed? And who is that women in red dress?" Prisha frowned over Megha and stared at her. Everything was uncontrollable because the dancers were changed and the musician was not resting.

" Princess, I don't know what is happening? I..I really don't know. How they came so suddenly and the musician is not the man we called. Its changed and about the women, I don't know who she is " Megha uttered her words watching Prisha so confused and worried.

" Get lost, if you don't know anything. Waste!" She yelled over her and Megha felt hurt. A tear fell from her eyes and she bitted her lips. She left from the hall. Prisha ran at the musician to stop as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, Davendra and Yuvan both were noticing Daksina, where she was looking crazy and seducing. Their eyes were only on her, actually everyone's eyes were on her even the servants and the guards.

Haha! They will remember me forever. Especially, wherever he is watching me, I thought. I could see the women who were in shock, chattering and men gazing at me with lust. I'm not a slut but ruining his so called attitude like this was the best thing I did. Actually, I enjoyed the dance and the winning thought.

He even didn't saw my face and can't recognise me. How unlucky he was! It's his bad luck, he can't take his revenge back. I'll vanish from here when the dance will end, I thought and smirking.

That's the reaction, I was expecting from everyone and my revenge was just about to end when suddenly my ankle got twisted because the dress's flair came under my feet, I lost my balance and was about to fall.

I closed my eyes in thought that how you will feel when you fall on the stage in the middle of your performance?

My breath stopped in my throat, when a hand came wrapping around my waist and by mistake I stepped on the feet of that person. I didn't notice what I did, meanwhile I also grabbed the neck of the person so tightly to save myself. I was not only the one who will do this, everyone will do to save themselves.

I froze at my position and still my eyes were close. My head was down as I was not facing the person's face. I breathed and felt no pain, that means I didn't fall I thought.

I sighed in relief and opened my eyes while slowly moving my head up. Heck! Those eyes, my eyes fell over two beautiful eyes who were staring into mine. I blinked and froze for a minute. Why those eyes were so deep and saying something to me? Those brown eyes and big lashes were so beautiful. I had seen those eyes somewhere, but where? I didn't remember.

Then my eyes fell over his face, running from his eyes to his nose and then to his lips. I didn't know why he was looking so known? Had I seen him somewhere? His touch, his touch on my waist making me so desperate.

Why my heart was beating so fast? I again looked into his eyes and he was staring into my soul. I was so lost into his eyes that I didn't notice that he was just about to pull down my mask which was hiding my face. I came into the present scenario when someone yelled from behind.

" Prince, hold her. Don't let her go" a voice echoed into the hall, which was that witch Prisha's. The music stopped already and the guards were coming at me.

" Rajkumar Davendra " I mumbled and faced him in shock. That means it was him, who dared to force himself on me that night, my so called husband. I can't reveal myself like this ,especially when I was in front of him in that red dress. He will definitely kill me and what's about my home? No, I can't let him do that.

My eyes widened watching his hand over my mask and him holding me completely. My whole balance was on him, I saw at Prisha and then him, I gritting my teeth in anger. But that time was not to face them. Oh God! I can't fail like that.

I didn't know what to do? Because I thought that I would run away and nobody will find me but I ruined my plan by myself because of him.

I pushed him hard unknowingly in panic. I didn't see back what happened to him because I can't face him at that time and started to run fast as fast possible.

" Stop you! I said stop! " He yelled over me from behind. I saw his face and didn't had courage to face him again.

" Guards, catch her. I want her here " I heard him yelling as I stepped out of the hall and started to ran towards my room taking the other shortcut.

Meanwhile his guards were so fast or trained well like the mad bull, they started to chase me. I ran holding my dress tightly.

" I know today is my last day on this earth.... Hey Maa, save me " I mumbled and reached at the corridor.

I turned back, and my heart plunged out of my chest as I saw not only the guards but the other people were chasing me too. I widened my eyes hearing " Are pakrho ussei, woh bach k jaanei na paye ".

[ Catch her, don't let her go ]

I was about to reach at the turn point of the corridor but unfortunately someone came running at me while yelling from there. I changed my path and ran in other direction.

Don't know where I was going but for sure, the whole palace started to chase me. The whole palace filled with noise and people were running to catch me.

I hid behind a curtain when I saw a big 6 feet tall man running in my direction.

" Where she has gone? I saw her here few seconds ago " He mumbled but hearable to me and I bitted my lips. I sighed as he left from there but within a second a group of people passed from there.

" Why there is lot of people wasting their time moving here and there? At least they can rest for a while. Please, not today " I mumbled and jumped out from the near window which lead me to the garden. It seemed like garden.

I jumped without looking at the height of the window. It was not at much height, I could jump easily from there. So I jumped in hurry. But my luck, sometimes don't work so often.

" OUCH!! aapko dekh k chalna chahiye " I said rubbing my head as It got collided with a man who was just standing under that window. I didn't see him but why he was standing there? I fell over him and our head got collide. I was on him and a painful moan left from my mouth. I saw him in anger and frustration.

He was too rubbing his head and blinked. As I said to him, he grabbed my arms tightly and pulled me under him. Our position changed suddenly.

He was sitting over me and I was in shock under him.

" Hum dekh k hi chal rhe the lekin lgta hai shayad apko hi bohot jaldi hai " He smirked and glared at me. It seemed like something bad was about to happen with me. I struggled but he grabbed my hands tightly and put behind me. Covered or stopped me under him which made me unable to move an inch. Of course he was tall and heavy as hell.

[ I was walking fine but may be you are in hurry ]

" Listen, first of all.. You should move away from me and second mujhe karate bhi aatei hain... So its better to let me go... " I struggled with heavy breathes as I was already tired of running for almost 20 minutes and he was heavy too.

[ I know karate ]

" No, how can I let a beautiful women like you go? Well you dance very well actually very good " He said squinting his eyes. That means he knew or he was there too. Who he was? What he will do with me? Will he give me to the Prince and he will threw me into his jail? Noooooo!!!, my inner voice screamed imagining this.

" Huh? " he smiled at me suddenly as his expression changed after watching me silent.

" Don't you think, you think very much? " He said and stared into my eyes.

" What? " I asked him in shock.

" Show me your face " He demanded and my eyes widened as he grabbed my hands with his one and hand. His second hand was slowly- slowly coming over my eyes. It was really felt like slow motion heart attack to me.

" Nooooooooooo " I screamed out of my lungs and he looked at pouting, " Huh? Why you screamed? I just want to see your face. I promise I will do nothing to you ".

" Well, sorry I can't let you see my face. So please let me go " I said making face under my mask and in a teasing tone as my heart was pounding. What if the Prince came and catch me?

" Why? Can you give me a better reason for not removing your mask? " He moved his one eyes brow up and I sighed.

" Maine...Maine mtlb humne mannat mangi hai..k jb tk hmari door ki bua theek nhi ho jati hum apna chehra kisi nhi dikhayenge " I started to cry little and laughing like an evil inside. I know I'm the best.

[ I wished that until my far aunt gets better I will not let anyone to see my face ]

" Why? What happened to her ? " He said making a serious face, but I swear he was looking so cute. Oh god! I'm so evil...hahah.

" She fell from a mango tree and went into coma....Oh God! Please make her healthy " I cried hard in front of him and he left my both hands. He also get up from me and I felt relief.

" Sorry to hear that, May god grant her health. I'm sorry, I did this with you but from mango tree?" He said with a straight smile.

" Ji haan, Aam ke aam aur gudhliyon k daam ho gyi meri bua " A fake tear left from eyes and covered my mouth with hands showing me emotional as hell.

" Well, Who are you and why you ran away from the hall? " We both stood up from the ground and he asked me while I was removing the mud from my clothes.

" Actually, mujhe kuch zaroori kaam yaad aa gya tha bs whi krne ja rhi hoon " I said him in sad tonne like I had to go somewhere like plough my field in the place of ox.

[ Actually, I remembered an important piece of work so just I was going there ]

" What important work? Like to give medicine to your Aunt? " He questioned me again and again.

" Yes, to free my Aunt into the field. I mean to free the ox into the field " I corrected myself.

" Ok, and what's your name? " He again asked me and I saw some guards coming there.

" Acha, toh mai ab chalti hoon" I smiled forcefully at him and was about to run again when he grabbed my hands again. He pulled me towards him and demanded my name again.

" Fine, my name is Ambika " I said blinking continuously at him and said in a creepy manner.

" Ambika, nice name" He smiled at me and leaved my hands. I sighed and went back. He stopped me, wasted my time and also irritate me, so that's the time to return him something.

" Well, now you know my name and I'm glad that you didn't see my face. I request you, Please don't tell anyone about me and my name. I work in this palace, if you want to meet me then you can find me in this palace as you know my name. But don't tell anyone. It's our secret. Ok? " I went to him and held his both hands into mine and said him with my cute puppy eyes.

" Of course, well you told me your name but didn't asked me for my name. Let me tell you, I'm the Prince of Mahadevgarh, Prince Yuvan Singh Airawat " He said smiling and tapped on my head.

" Mar gyei " I mumbled and went away from him immediately. My smile dropped hearing his words and I smiled forcefully. I didn't look back for once and ran away from him.

What the heck have you done, Daksina? You made fool to the Prince of Mahadevgarh. If he will find the truth, He will kill me for sure.

I was running as hell and reentered into the Palace from another door of the Garden. I was breathing heavily and my throat dried. I ran to the stairs so that I reach into my room because nobody was there.

When I reached at the front of the corridor of my room, a smile and relief left from my lips. When I reached at the door and was about to push, suddenly the door opened by itself I thought. But somebody opened it intentionally.

I lost my balance again and my eyes widened, as I fell on the person who opened it. It was none other than the Mad bull.

I collided with his wide hard chest and he grabbed me by my waist tightly. He didn't move an inch as nothing impacted him.

But that was not the main point to fear about but him. I gulped hard and bitted my lips. I collected the courage left inside me after ruining his image and flopping my plan. I moved my head up to face him and he was already digging my soul under the earth with his eyes. I dared to do eye contact with him and he dug his finger into my waist more tightly.

" I knew it was you, Daksina " He groaned and I gulped. He pulled me inside and closed the door of my room. My heart started to pound and a shiver ran through my spine with his move. He pushed me against the wall and grabbed my arms. He was so harsh doing all. A painful moan left from my mouth.

" Leave me, it hurts " I said struggling and trying to make him leave my hands but he was so strong as more I struggle the more he gives me pain.

" It should hurt for what you have done today " He roared at me and I closed my eyes as he was a human but not less than a monster.

" Look at me, Daksina. I want to see your shameless eyes " He demanded but I ignored which made him more angry. May be really, I did wrong but what he was doing with me, he deserved to be embarrassed in front of everyone.

He grabbed my mouth in frustration and moved my face up. I opened my eyes and due to pain my eyes were started to fill with tears. He was really so cruel as I thought.

I faced him, looked into his big eyes and he was looking mad bull, not angry but upset. Why? He should be angry but he was not. What the heck! he was thinking?

It was third time that we were that close and second time I saw his face at close. I just wanted to ran away from him but his hold was so tight.

" Good, Now tell me why you did this?"He stared into my eyes and asked in rude tone. His behavior was doing nothing but made me hate him more and more.

" You really think that you will ask me and I will tell you PRINCE "I jerked his hand over my mouth and teased him. He came more close at me leaving no space between us and placed his both hands over the wall.

" Ok, it looks like you are really hard to talk with. You think you can ruin my image easily for your so called revenge. Nah! You can't, you forgot that I'm Davendra Singh Chouhan. Its hard to make me fool, my naive wife " He said and I flinched as he hit his hand on the wall. I bitted my lips when I felt to lose over my plan. He was so clever more than I thought, also he caught me that easily. I just want to kick his ass, really by heart.

" How do you know? Or you are just guessing haan!? " I furrowed my eyes and said to him.

" Do you really think I'm here to play guessing- guessing game? "He replied in rude tone and I sighed.

" Well, I thought " I said pouting under my mask and rolled my eyes. His hold was still tight which was hurting so much but I tolerated all the pain. I didn't want to show myself week especially in front of him who thinks about me as a toy.

" You know wife, How did I know about you? I just smelled you because on that night I smelled you too " He groaned at me and a smirk left on his lips which made my blood more warm as lava.

" I don't care what you did and how you find me. I have already ruined your image and your so called ghuroor( Attitude) "I mocked him as I love to irritate him because he was the reason what I did.

" Oh! so that's the matter. Don't play with me Daksina..Don't, you will ruin yourself. You can't break my attitude....Remember If you can play games then I can change your games on you " He said gritting his teeth while came more close to my face as his nose touched my cheek which made me flinched and I moved my face to the right side. His touch was giving me goosebumps.

" Are you scared of me? That's why you are requesting to me not to play with you as you tried to play with me last night?" I groaned at him, in teasing tone. I narrowed my eyes at him when he grabbed my mouth in squeezed it harshly. The pain was immense but I didn't react much because he wanted to see me in pain.

" Watch your mouth Daksina! You thought you will ruin my image but unfortunately you entertained us and nobody knows that it was you except me. Everyone enjoyed but the one thing which was wrong,... that was you. You as my so called third wife dared to dance in front of everyone" He uttered, gritting his teeth and suddenly he went back, I took deep breathes. He crossed his arms and walked.

" You, you dared to show your body to everyone. You dared to show yourself to everyone in this dress. You dared to ruin our cultural dance and after all that you are not apologising your mistakes " and he continued while staring into and digging my soul. I saw him in annoyance and frustrated, which was may be a win and what I expected- to annoy him.

" I did nothing wrong, Mr. Husband. You provoked me yesterday to do this with you. May be, unfortunately you are saved but not every time "I rolled my eyes again and crossed my arms too. He sighed and came, stood in front of me.

" Ok fine, so play as you want but never cross your limits otherwise....." He said while coming in front of face with one inch space from my face.

" Otherwise what? What you will do? Put me in your jail or kill me. That's it, you can do nothing except hurting people. Because you are a monster in the face of a human " I mocked him and inside I gulped.

" Now you are provoking me, Daksina. Think about the consequences before speaking. You can't even imagine what I can do with you " He threaten me and I blinked, didn't know when my eyes fell on floor as he said. I felt dirty vibes from his last sentence.

But I'm Daksina, I moved my head up and stared into his eyes. I walked towards him and he stepped back.

" Haha! Monsters can eat innocent people only. I know what you are capable of. Oh! Now I have to take bath you have touched me " I said walking towards him and he stopped suddenly, I too.

" Shut uppp! Now don't say to me that I didn't warn you. You speaks a lot " When he said, I didn't understand what he mean.

" Huh? ", He pulled me, grabbed my hand and twisted it harshly.

"Aah..ouch!...aha...l..le..leave...me....aha!" I cried in pain, he placed his chin over my shoulder which was hurting as hell.

" From next time never ever underestimate me. You are here only for one thing and remember I can't love you cause I hate you very much " he whispered in my ears, his warm breathes touched my neck and he pushed me. I lost my balance and fell on the floor. "Ouch" a painful moan left from my mouth.

" You think I love you , no never ever not even in your dreams cause I hate you very very very much, Monster " He uttered with tsk*tsk*tsk sound which made my heart so much heart. I wanted to cry badly but I hold my tears and kept aside for a while. I faced him while trying to stand up.

" I'm letting you go for today only because I have some guests to attend " He leaned towards me and placed his finger under my chin so he can see my teary eyes. Some tears were in my eyes but not out.

" Just leave me alone, and here is the door which will show you the way out of my room " I pushed his finger away with a jerk and showed him the door by pointing my finger on it.

" Thank you very much for showing me the way out otherwise I were lost in your room. Well you danced very well" He went back and smirked.

" Your welcome, can't you leave soon? " I yelled over him and He furrowed his eye brows.

" Don't yell at me I don't like people who speaks loud in front of me, I'm leaving your room but remember one thing I didn't give you punishment this time but next time I will not give you any mercy " he said while grabbing me from my back neck through my hairs. I also grabbed his hand so that time he will not hurt me again.

" Let's see who will give mercy on whom? Challenge accepted " I tried to free from his hold and uttered, while making eye contact with him.

" For sure, you will regret on this challenge and I promise you will give up on your own " He left me and walked toward the door, But before leaving he said and left my room without looking back.

" In your dreams " I shouted when he stepped out of my room. A stream of tears started to fall from my eyes and I cried as much I could. My life became hell, in my own world and now here. Why? Why god is doing this with me? What I have done wrong?

I pulled my mask from my face and wiped my tears. Ambika came in my room running, after watching him going out of my room. She saw me on floor, crying and she asked me what happened. But I didn't care what she was asking me. I just hugged her tightly and cried like a baby.

I wanted someone who loves me and cares me, but may be love is not for me. I wanted a hug badly who can heal me, my pain. She rubbed my back and tried to make me calm.

"Shshsh... Princess calm down, please..don't cry. I told you not to make him angry. He is your husband and before that he is a cruel Prince of this palace" She consoled me and she cried to. She placed me back and wiped my tears.

" What's my fault, Ambika? What I did with them? " I asked her while crying and she cupped my cheeks saying " No, its not your fault. Its nobody's fault, which is called as fate".

" Then why this pain in my fate? Is their nobody in the world who loves me? " I asked her and hugged her, when she was about to say something I felt dizzy and fell on her lap. Everything went blank, I became unconscious and slept in the lap of darkness.

I went out from her room before somebody can see me coming out of her room. I strictly ordered everyone to lock her and this time she will not able to come out of her room.

I didn't want to hurt her but its important. I didn't want her to expect anything from me, I know she hates me but it's good for her. She is really a challenging girl, nobody ever dared to stare at me but she, even as a girl, she dared.

She have guts to stand in front of me. I should be more aware from her from the next time. She can do anything to ruin my image.

May be my mother was saying the right thing about her, she is very clever. Somehow, It didn't affect much but still, it could be worse.

If Maanvi was there, nothing this would ever happened, I sighed and walked out of the corridor.

I went to hall back and called my servants back. Prince Yuvan was also there with her sister and Prisha gossiping together. Thank God, she took care of them in my absence. We all went our seats back and talked about the Kingdom's affair.

" I hope you enjoyed, Prince Yuvan " I said with a straight smile and he replied " Yes, I enjoyed a lot here. Well, I had some important work in my palace but somehow now its done in my absence. And now I want to see your Kingdom for more days. Can I stay here for few days if you don't mind? "

Everybody went silent and I sighed. First he didn't want to stay and now he wants, that's strange but who cares? It's good for our relation.

" As your wish, we will glad if you see our Kingdom. It will help you to create more ideas for your kingdom " I said him politely and he gave me straight smile.

" Wah! Brother that means we will stay here and enjoy as much as possible " His sister got excited and happy. He hugged Prisha in excitement. Oh! She is my wife, I thought.

As it was afternoon, and this time was to talk on serious matter with him. Everybody left from the hall and went back to their rooms for rest. I and Yuvan, went to the Garden where we will talk about the issue that why he came here.

We walked in the garden, under shade of a tree we sat on a chair, and nobody was there except us.

He sighed and started to talk, we were in my favourite place where cold breeze were running and under that tree we felt some space from the crowd.

" My Kingdom people is facing a huge problem just because of the supply of alcohols. I banned the supply and production of alcohol but someone is still supplying secretly into my people and its poisonous as well as dangerous. My spy who told me that King of Mahadevgarh is doing all this things, we can fight with him but he have someone as a partner who is more powerful and dangerous person. I can't fight with him alone as he already destroyed my people with alcohol and save my people from him. I want your help and in return whatever you want I will give you" He finished with furrowed eye brows and the stress was flowing over his face.

" You know why he is doing all this? " I questioned him.

" My Kingdom have big mining ground and we have different types of minerals especially Karnika, a unique and more powerful mineral, which is only three in this world. He wants that and he asked me for it but I denied. He behaved like he didn't mind but actually he silently trying ruin my Kingdom" He replied was the sky and sipped the glass full of juice.

" Mahendra- Nagari, this Kingdom is far as opposite from our Kingdom. Fine, I will help you in this matter but in return- I don't want anything but a share of Teerth river with my Kingdom People " I said making an eye contact with him. On hearing my words, he went silent.

After thinking for some seconds, he placed the glass on the table with a thud and he pouted. He saw here and there, he announced to me with a sigh " Deal, I will share it you but Please help me ".

" I knew your answer. Shubhankar...come here" I called my advisor and he came running at me as he was standing far away from me.

" Listen, deploy our secrete agents into his palace within three days. Then find the source of supply of alcohol in his Kingdom. After that, I will tell you the next move " I ordered him and he lowered his head. He left from there to follow the order I gave him.

" Thank you so much, I will send a message to my father to make papers on the Teerth River and when I went back to my home, I will arrange a meeting with your father for further discussions " He said leaning back on the chair. After that we talked about his Palace to collect more information.

He was not as bad as I thought. Sometimes it's better to make friend your enemy's enemy. The King of Mahendra-Nagari was not anything but more than a snake. He was an advisor of my father years ago, and I was just 10, when he cheated my father. As a punishment, we threw him out of the palace. From that day he looted on the people and snatch their treasure, after all this now he was a King of a whole Kingdom.

I was thinking all that when he said he wanted to walk and tour my palace. I hummed and asked him to visit this garden as my childhood memories was there.

I wanted to help him to visit my favourite place but Shubhankar called me because my father was calling me.

I left him alone there, my bodyguard was with him so I was care free. I ran towards my father chamber where he was waiting for me.

I walked toward the corridor and saw the left side where Daksina's room was and right where my whole family was. I felt somewhat unwanted feeling inside my heart and saw the floor. I sighed and walked to his room.

I knocked the door and entered into the room where he was sitting over the bed with my mother. I went to him and my mother to touch their feet for blessings but they both refused and I stunned by their reaction. What happened to them?

May be they knew what happened that day in the hall. I wanted to say something but he interrupted me while standing from the bed in front of me.

" Ye aapne kya kiya? Kya aap chahtei hain k hum aape bharosa na kre? " He said and my gaze lowered. I was right he knew.

[ What have you done? You want me not to trust you? ]

" No Father, I want your trust " My throat became heavy as I stood in front of him with my head lower again. When? When he will feel proud of me?

" Then why this happened today? Who she was? This happened because you were careless and there is no need for a careless King in this palace " I yelled at me and hearing this I feel on my knees. I joined my hands in front of him and begged for his forgiveness.

" She ran away, but we found her and she did because she want money because her family is ill " I lied to him. What if he know it was my third wife? He will definitely kill her and again marry me with some other girl. Also already they hate her.

I didn't want any drama in front of my guest. So that's why I lied.

" No, she wanted money and somebody paid her to do that. Who did this, Davendra? " He was angry as hell and suddenly he coughed. He lost his balance but he grabbed the bed wood and sat on it.

My mother helped him and I was standing, watching him. I felt shame as a son, I had done nothing to make him proud.

I bitted my lips and uttered " Don't worry father, I have punished her already and nothing will happen from next time. I'm very sorry for today. Please take rest ". I said and went out from the chamber without looking back. I knew he will ask me questions if I stay there.

I went to my room and sat in silence to think clearly that how could she arranged everything within a night? I ordered to lock in her room but still she came out. Whatever she did, but this time she will not especially until Prince Yuvan is there.
