Aishwarya POV

I opened my eyes feeling like i rested for days... I stretched my body and to my surprise i was in my chamber. That familiar roof...table...bed.. i looked around and i was actually in my room. I sit up looking around. My clothes were changed. I removed the blanket and got off the bed ..but winced immediately as i remebered i hurt my feet.

I walked slowly to the window and it was almost afternoon. What is happening? Wasn't i kidnapped? Then Ranjeet came... Right! He saved me! And i .... I asked him to hug me?!!!

I palm my face remembering everything. What the hell did i do!! Why?! .... I can't face him now. Why did i do it? ..maybe because i was at my lowest. It's so embarasssing how he's always there when I'm at my lowest.

I sigh... Suddenly Tripti came from behind with other servants. She ran and hugged me. " Thank goodness....you are okay... I was so worried..."

I froze for a bit.. it's the first time ..she has been so free with me. maybe she realised it as she backed away and lowered her head. " I'm sorry princess...i ..just..."

" It's okay... Tripti.." i smile " How did i got here ? I don't remember walking by myself" i asked her

" Prince Ranjeet brought you back last night. Everyone was so worried about you princess. We couldn't find you anywhere. It was prince who found about the secret passage first and went immediately to find you after informing everyone in the palace "

She told ne everything about how Ranjeet brought me while i was sleeping and took me to my chamber and left .

I walked and sat on the edge of the bed as i couldn't stand longer due to my injuries. All the memories flooding my mind. He's not that bad ...is he? ..

" Princess .. you need to get ready.." Tripti spoke up.

" Ready for what?". I asked thining my eyebrows

" Your marriage has been fixed" she spoke up hesitantly

I stood up " what?!!! With whom?"

" Prince Ranjeet Rai singh" she spoke

I look at her in shock and confusion. What is happening? How? In one night? Did i sleep too much? Am i dreaming?

" When king and queen saw him carrying you last night.. they called prince to talk to him. And they talked ..after that today in the morning.. People from Subhangarh were called to fix the marriage. We don't know what happened...but we were given orders to get you ready to meet everyone in the evening"

I sat back down... No...no... What the hell...i need to talk to Ranjeet ..i mean obviously we were planning to get married...but what is this new twist? Kya bhagwan ji...ek din to ye serial vale drame se door rakha kro meri life ko..

I got ready in a peacock themed lehenga ...with heavy dupatta on it adorned with heavy jewellery.

" Tripti...go tell Ranjeet to meet me on the terrace " she hesitated for a bit ..but went anyway

I need to talk to him before anything to know what actually is happening. I went to roof... Waiting for him in the isolated area where noone comes frequently.

I walked here and there...my anklets breaking the silence. Suddenly i heard footsteps...i turned around.. i looked at him... He was looking even more handsome and manly today wearing a creme coloured kurta and a blueish overcoat complimenting his hazel brown eyes... I shake my head to get my head straight.

I walk closer to him " what is happening?" I ask him

" Our marriage" he smirked

I rolled my eyes in annoyance " that i know...but how? I mean ... Did you do something? I'm so confused..how-"

He cut me off " how are you feeling now?" He spoke in a gentle voice I didn't know he had..

I look at him...staying silent for a bit..." I'm fine...now" i lower my head then look up " but that's not what i wa-"

He cut me off again " you father asked me yesterday.. to marry you after i brought you back"

I knit my eyebrows " he did what?"

" He didn't want his daughter to make any more foolish decisions than she has already made. " He smirked

I huff in annoyance putting my hands on my hips " it wasn't me who was foolish ..if it was me i would have never choosen that goat faced bastard! .. it was that..pri-" i froze as i realised what i just spoke ...i blinked looking at him

He lower his head ..i could see him shivering as he tried to control his laugh.

I huff in annoyance " you can laugh!"

He burst out laughing... I look at him , my annoyance just vanished.. it was the first time i saw his cold facade break and actually laughing. He looks so handsome..so mesmerizing like this.. a small smile formed on my lips looking at him

He realised the silence and looked at me. Then cleared his throat composing himself bringing back that cold monster facade. He turned to leave but stopped.

" Everyone is waiting ... future wife" he smirked and walked away

I rolled my eyes ... he's Annoying as hell . Why did i even think he looked good laughing! Tsk... Annoying..

I walked down to my chamber where Tripti and others were waiting for me to go where everyone was waiting for the marriage talks and all.

It was going on so fast. The marriage was fixed and now the preparations were going. It was fixed to be held in a week. Quite fast ...i know..

Today.. he'll be going back to his kingdom. I mean it's not like I care..but i somehow feels nervous and scared at the thought of him leaving.he was the only one who saved me evetytime i was in trouble and was there whenever i was at my lowest in this unfamiliar world. He was the only one familiar.

I walked out of my chamber roaming around aimlessly.. don't know why.. i wanted to meet him before he go back. But, I can't.. what will i say? ...

I sigh looking at the sky.. suddenly i felt a presence behind me before i could turn around.. i felt him whisper in my ear

" Missing me already baby?" His voice was deep and sultry making me shiver

I turned around taking my steps away facing him...my hand went instictively on my ear " In your dreams!" I spat back

He chuckled raising his eyebrows tilting his head...does he know .. how hot that looks!?

" How feisty.." he walked closer to me towering over me looking down at me

'i just came to remind you..be ready to tell me why you wanted to break off your engagement with Maan singh.. because you'll be my business soon" he leaned closer to my ear to whisper

"Future wife~"

My cheeks turned red.. he knows just what to say to rile me up.. i roll my eyes pushing him just enough to slip away.. i walked past him to walk away..

" Go to hell!" I spat walking away.. i could feel he was smirking.. i stopped in my path without turning back i spoke in a slow voice

" Be safe..." Then walked away
