Aishwarya's pov

Suddenly, i heard the crackling sounds of the doors opening in the dark , isolated dungeon. Footsteps approaching me..

I was sitting on the cold floor in a corner. My chest felt heavy as the person approached my cell.. covering themselves with a black shawl.

" Tripti?..."

My voice came out barely audible even to myself.. i stood up immediately to approach her so i can see if it's actually her. But, my body just gave in. I fell on the floor as i felt dizzy and weak without no food and water for three days.

She sat down too..the iron bars of the cell seperating us.. i look at her as she removes the shawl enough for me to see her face.

" Why.... Why did you do it?.."

My voice came rather trembling filled with emotions of betrayal , anger and helplessness..

She started snickering like an evil witch.i have never seen this side of her. Why??... Why would she do something like this to me??...

" My revenge is still not over princess Aishwarya.."

The anger and disgust that she had in her voice when she called my name ...it was ... It sent shivers to my whole body..

" Revenge?..."

She came near to me looking in my eyes with that anger , disgust and the urge to kill me right there ..

" You killed my sister...my only family in this world , my everything. How could i let you live peacefully? How could i see you happy? Hahahaha... What did everyone say? You changed?!

Tsk...my foot!! You!! Are an evil woman!! You can never change. You killed my sister and I'll make you pay for it!"

My head was spinning...so i was being treated like this for something i didn't even do? ..

" Your sister?..."

I ask her in my weak almost faint voice..

" Yes..my elder sister! Who worked for you! The one who you killed just because she was pretty and your so called fiancee looked at her and praised her!!! You had her marry off to a 40 year old drunkard!!

He killed my sister that very night after treating her like a whore!!! I'll never forgive you for that! You deserve to die!.."

My heart shattered in thousand pieces that very moment. Such brutal treatment, such a painful death... Even though i didn't do it. But the body I'm living in...did it.

I felt so heavy , so guilty...it was so hard to even breath right now.. what do i do? Do i really deserve to die?.. tears started flowing my eyes just thinking about what that poor , innocent girl would have gone through.. how could anyone be this cruel..

" I'm.....sorry..."

My trembling voice came out with tears in my eyes and uttermost sincerity..but i know it wouldn't help her pain and what she went through..

" You must be wondering ...the poison didn't affect you.. because there was an antidote in the sweets. I knew Ranjeet doesn't eat sweets. So, the effects of the poisonous tea was neutralised by the antidote in the sweets.

I wanted you to experience how it feels to loose someone closer to you..how it feels to be helpless and see that person perish in front of your eyes...

Torment , lament and regret now. Only then my sister will rest in peace. I hope you feel exactly what i went through.."

My heart felt so heavy... She was the only friend and only person i trusted after Ranjeet... Why...

" I trusted ...you."

Tears couldn't stop falling my eyes.. the pain in my heart was unbearable. It was all too much for me. Please...take me home someone.

She scoffed...

" Trust ? .. tsk.."

I couldn't help but smile through my tears..

" I hope you find peace after taking your revenge. Live a happy and free life away from all this hate.."

I could see her face change.. even for a slick second..i saw the friend Tripti with whom i shared those happy moments.

She stood up and turned her back to me.. before walking away she said something that made breathing even heavy for me

" Tommorow... you'll be beheaded in front of the whole empire for killing the king. Ranjeet's grandmother wants you dead as soon as possible "

I fell numb for a few seconds...

" Kill.... The king?... Ranjeet .."

My voice just won't come out..

" Ranjeet....is..he.. okay right?.."

She turned to me with a wicked smile..

" He's dead! Your beloved husband is dead... Just like my sister...and you couldn't do anything to save him!"

My whole body fell limp... everything went blank , everything stopped.. my heart..my mind..

He's dead?....Ranjeet?...

I can't think of anything... I can't process anything..not even one tear fell off my eyes.. i kept sitting on the cold floor hugging my knees.

I don't know when the sun came up or when the soldiers came to take me... To behead me..

I was lifeless as they took me .. basically dragging me with heavy iron chains in my hands and legs..

I couldn't feel anything.. my body was weak... My head was spinning and eyes heavy. i felt like I'll pass out any moment.

They dragged me through the crowd to the center where that huge thing was fixed... With a huge and scary guy standing beside it..

That thing will behead me in front of so many people. Is this the end?.. will i doe here? Will i go back now? And continue my other life or just die here?

I didn't know anything... I couldn't think of anything... I don't care anymore..

It was a kind of arena.. the royals were sitting on the thrones over a height watching everything from there.

I tried searching for Ranjeet. but he was nowhere... I just can't believe he was dead. I can't believe he left me ..he left this world...

They dragged me over and made me kneel down. My hands tied with a rope behind my back..

There were announcements made ...but i just couldn't hear anything.. i kept looking lifelessly on the ground.







" The Queen , Aishwarya Rajvansh is sentenced to death for killing the king of our empire, Ranjeet Rai Singh "

The people started screaming their lungs out cursing me , throwing stones at me and yelling to kill me

" Kill her! Kill her! Kill her!"



( I couldn't find any better photo to explain the situation to you guys)

I couldn't help but laugh at my condition .i was going to be killed for a crime I didn't commit.. in a world i didn't belong to..by the people i didn't know..

" So that's how it'll all end..."

That guy yanked my hair so tight that i screamed in pain. Then he put my neck on the lower part of that machine like thing which will soon be cutting my head.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. Lastly , thinking of all the people i ever loved and cherished in both my lives..

" Mom , Dad...Deeksha...My brother..."

I closed my eyes accepting my fate leaving this world with no regrets or harsh feelings for anyone

" Ranjeet...."

That name came from inside my soul as i closed my eyes..
