Aishwarya POV
Now the actual war was to tell everyone about this little plan we have made. I need to tell the king and queen first. From what i know , they love her . I mean what else reason is there for them to let her engage that goat faced. He doesn't even belong to a powerful empire.
" Tripti...i want to meet my father" i told her when she was braiding my hairs as i sat in front of the mirror.
I need to tell them this as soon as possible. I don't know what awaits me. But, I'll do anything to survive in this place.
I took a deep breath before entering the where the king and queen are waiting for me as i had Tripti inform them beforehand.
" Pranam Baapusa ...pranam Maasa" i adjoined my hands bowing my head as i stood in front of them.
" Come , my child" the queen spoke sweetly telling me to sit
I sat on the couch opposite to the one they were both sitting on. There was a coffee table type of table between us.
" Is everything alright, my dear?" The king asked I had my head lowered tangling my fingers composing myself to say what i want to say.
" I want to break off my engagement with Maan singh" i spoke in a low voice
They both spoke in unison " what?!"
I look up at them with determination and firmness " he's not the one for me Baapusa. I know i have not been a good child to you and i have made mistakes in past. But, i want to correct them one by one. I realised it late but it's not too late . I don't love me and neither does he. He just wants the power he'll get after marrying me. And I don't want a loveless marriage for myself. I don't wanna make more mistakes. So please , just this time . Please support me with my decision."
I spoke calmly yet firmly looking at them.
They looked at each other and stayed quite for some time. I lowered my head praying to god to just make things a bit easy for me. please....
" Alright.." Baapusa spoke up
I look at him..a bit shocked. Itni jldi maan gye? Waah...
" We have seen changes in you that are on the greater side . We know you are trying to improve yourself. So, we'll give you a chance too. But are you sure my child?" The king spoke
I nod my head " I'm very sure father"
They smiled and stood up then patted my head " bless you"
A small smile spread over my face.i closed my eyes . It felt just like my parents in my world. I miss them.
They left after that. The news spread in no time of me trying to break off the engagement.
I was in the garden in the evening... enjoying the nature , trying to feel a bit better. But, maybe the devil didn't really liked me. So he sent one of his monster to me to interrupt my me time.
That goat faced bastard...
" Aishwarya!" He roared walking to me
I was feeding the pigeons casually not even sparing a glance to him.
" I'm talking to you!" He roared
I look at him with a death glare " it's princess... Not Aishwarya now.. mind your words Maan singh!"
He came to his senses knowing the seriousness of the situation now. He lowered his head " princess.... I'm sorry..i was a bit-"
" You heard it right .. I'm breaking my engagement with you" i turn to the pigeons throwing the grains softly for them.
" What?! Why?... What did i do?... How can you -"
" Because i wanted to. Any problems?" I tilt my head raising an eyebrow
He was nothing but a prince of a small state now. The princess was the one who increased his prices by treating him like he was the king. but.. I'm not her. I'll show him just his right place.
He look at me in shock..." Y...you... No" he lowered his head
" If that's all ...i hope you return as soon as to your estate. Because guests are not meant to stay forever." I walk past him to walk to my chamber.
I saw him from a far as i was walking to my chamber. He had his fists clenched.. like controlling his anger. Two faced bastard.. i know he's trying to hide his true colours..
I stopped in my tracks hiding behind a pillar as i saw him talk to one of the soldiers.. it seems like he's planning something. I know he's the one who won't sit still after this.
I went to my chamber and wrote a note .
" Tripti...give this note to Ranjeet and make sure to do it discretely"
Tripti went away .. i need to make sure of my safety. I took a bath and wore a cotton lehenga of white colour to get comfortable sleep . I put a dagger under my pillow... Just in case.
I was about to go to sleep as i turned to shut the door. I knit my eyebrows as there were no guards outside and it was strangely quiet . It was eerie to look around in the darkness in just moonlight. something was wrong. I felt someone behind me. Before i could pull out my dagger from the waistband of my lehenga. Someone put a hand over my mouth and other on my waist dragging me out of my chamber backwards.
I struggle to get away ..but nothing worked. i wasn't even wearing my anklets and bangles. So there was no noise at all that something was happening. He was so strong that I couldn't do anything but get dragged.
Some more guys followed him with fire torches in their hands. He took me to a secret passage that even i didn't know existed in the palace. How did they know of it?
" Mmm....mmmmmm" i struggle to get away but they just kept dragging me.
After going a bit deeper in the passage. He left me ...i turned immediately to look at who it was...
Who else can it be other than that goat faced bastard..
" Maan singh! How dare you!" I yell in anger. I was dishivelled...my hairs were open and messy due to his dragging and i was barefoot.
He grabbed my hair at the back of my head pulling me to him " it would have been so much better if you behaved and just married me like the foolish Princess you were! You spoiled my plan. Now. You have to Diee!"
He started dragging me with my hair "' ahhh... Leave me! " I struggle to get away. But he was too strong and they were too many for me to deal with.
My feets were bleeding as the path was rocky and they way he kept dragging me was hurting me . Tears slipped my eyes even if i didn't want to look weak at all.
I don't even know if someone will come to save me. But, I can't give up. I have to meet my parents..my family again. And for them I can't die like this.i just can't...
He dragged me out of the passage in a dense forest. My feets hurts so bad as i could feel so many sprinters piercing my skin. But , i can take it...i have to...
I could see a few tents at a distance. This wasn't just any simple kidnapping. He has it all planned ahead. This bastard is upto something big..
He left my hair and held my wrist so tight that it'll leave a bruise.
" Leave me ! You bastard! Do you think you'll live after all this!!"
He laughed like a maniac throwing me on a bed in one of the tents. " What will you do princess? You know dead people can't talk... I'll just say ..i was trying to save princess... But they were too many... My princess~ my dear princess ~ was begging for her life...but i could do nothing"
He spoke in a dramatic sad voice ...that was making my blood boil... Princess your choice in men is shitty!
" You won't be able to get away with this!" I yell in anger But to be true , i was utterly scared. i was all alone in this situation with no hope of getting saved at all. In this unfamiliar place , unfamiliar people... Just trying to survive. I want to go back...
I take a deep breath sitting up on the bed... I can't give up. " You still have your chance . Stop now and I'll think about giving you an easy death" i say firmly
He laughed like a maniac. " Aw...poor little princess~ you think that'll scare me. You are quite feisty for someone who's going to die. "
He looks down at my chest like a creep...and i covered it with my dupattas instantly. Fucker...
" It'll be such a waist to just kill you with that beautiful face and body" he smirked walking closer to me
I slide back on the bed looking around to find something to hit him...but nothing...for god sake... why am i so unlucky?! In movies the girl could fing anything to hit the villain... but me?! ...
" Don't you dare come close to me! " I warn him
But he grab my ankle and pull me to the edge of bed " Ahhh.... Nooooo.. get away!!" I try to kick him
But he hover over me and pin me down " Stop struggling.. it'll hurt less" he laughed and tore the sleeve of my blouse " Lemme see your milky skin princess... I promise ... I'll try to make it hurt as much as possible" he snickeres
" Nooooo...." I scream trying to push him away... Tears started falling my eyes
He started kissing my neck like a hungry animal ...like he will eat me alive..
It was disgusting...utterly disgusting..i felt so helpless...so scared... " Pleasee...pleaseee nooooo.... Noooo" i cried
He pinned me by my throat..i almost choked and he was just enjoying seeing my pain like a monster.
Tears streaming down my eyes as i struggle to breath .. i try to loosen his grip on my neck
He laughed " aw... don't worry .. I won't give you such an easy death... I'll kill you a thousand times before actually killing you "
He pulled my dupatta away from my body and threw it away. then pinned both my arms on each side
" No...noooo....pleaseeee no........" I screamed crying
