Ranjeet's Pov
I was sitting in the discussion hall with Abhimanyu and the king to discuss some political matters. then , after finishing the work , i was walking to my Chamber talking to my Right hand , my most trustworthy man , Commander of my army , Dhruv .
I was discussing with him about something when i heard the sweet voice of anklets and a sweet voice of a girl singing.
I signal Dhruv to go . I don't know why but my feets were automatically attracted to this voice. I made my way to the terrace , my heart beats stopped for a moment when i saw that beautiful view in front of my eyes.
A delicate figure shining in the setting sun moving gracefully , dishivelled yet the most beautiful things i ever saw. Her long hairs flowing in the wind making her look breathtaking. Her anklets and jewellery together with her mesmerizing voice making my heart flutter. My eyes seems to stuck at her figure. That slim waist exposed as her duppata lying on the floor , the backless blouse with three strings tightly tied on her back making her look so sexy yet delicate at the same time.
Her navel looking so breathtaking with sweat drops over it. Her tear stained cheeks looked so kissable. But , my heart stopped when i recognised her.
" Aishwarya?" I murmur..my voice barely a whisper
I couldn't believe my eyes, the princess who never showed an ounce of emotion other than anger, hate and looking down on others was crying and showing such beautiful emotions... Looking so vulnerable that it makes me want to take her in my warm embrace.
I just can't digest the fact that a person can change so much just by losing their memories. I shake my thoughts walking a bit closer to her.
" Aishwarya" i call her softly still mesmerised by her
She stopped dancing ...she looked up at me , her tears stained her cheeks shining in the setting sun, her chest heaving ...rising and falling rapidly, her lips parted as she was panting , her eyes unfocused and dazed like she was looking at me but her mind was elsewhere.
The look on her face makes me want to kiss her senselessly and comfort her hiding her in my arms. I shake my thoughts off...what was i thinking...
I couldn't stop my feet from moving closer to her. Unconsciously, my hand went to her face . I caress her cheek wiping her tear with my thumb looking in her eyes .
" Are you okay?" I ask in a firm yet a gentle voice almost in a husky whisper
She looked in my eyes like begging for some form of comfort.
Suddenly , a servant's voice interrupted us. " Kunwarsa..."
She snapped back to reality and stepped back wiping her tears and picked the dupatta from the floor. Tucking one end of dupatta in the hem of the lehenga and other to cover her head till her forehead. She looked down .
I looked at the servant , a bit annoyed ... I don't know why.. " What?!" I asked firmly yet coldly
The servant looked down in fear " k...kunwarsa ...aapko or Rajkumari ko khane p bulaya gaya h... Raja sahab intejar kar rahe h"
I sigh then nod.... But before i could reply . Aishwarya walked past me , her anklets breaking the silence ...she walked to the stairs but before going down she glanced at me once ...something in her eyes that i can't describe...
She ran down the stairs ...i could hear her anklets with every step she took.
I thin my eyebrows, does she really not remeber me? True, we weren't that close but ....
" I'm coming" i say firmly to the servant then turn and look at the setting sun. Her figure , voice and those graceful moves clouding my mind.
I went to the dining hall after a while to join the Rajvansh family in the dinner. I sat down on the chair opposite to Abhimanyu. Suddenly, everybody's attention was caught by an announcement of Princess entering.
It stirred a commition as she never joined any family dinners or celebration. She was always grumpy and angry at every single thing arounf her. But the huge change was really suspicious.
She entered in an orange coloured lehenga adorned with beautiful jewellery looking breathtaking. I don't know when i started finding this pain in the ass beautiful. I never liked her or her temper. She was always mean and a spoiled brat who can't talk without arguing.
But, something has changed....in a good way and I can't stop myself but be drawn to her. The grace , elegance and softness she carries now is making me feel things i never felt before.
She came and sit beside me on the only empty chair. I focused on my plate with a cold, stoic expression on my face betraying the turmoil of emotions inside me. Her scent of roses and some herbs filled my nose. Her smell somehow calmed my heart but igniting a wave of heat inside me. I want to smell her , taste her and eat her.
I curse myself internally for thinking like this. Suddenly my attention was caught by the king
" Aishwarya... Beta how are you feeling now?" He asked in a tender yet firm voice
She looked up from her plate.. her gentle yet nervous eyes looking at everyone then the king. She smiled politely but i could see her clenching her fists in her lap out if nervousness.
" I'm feeling better now , thankyou for asking"
The Aishwarya who made everyone nervous was nervous? Something was really wrong. And she is even thanking? A smirk tugged at my lips .... interesting...
Everyone looked at her shocked at her speaking so politely and even apologizing.
She maybe sensed that...she clears her throat and spoke in a somehow gentle yet sincere voice.
" Um...i ... I almost died that day. But , still survived. I don't remeber how i was before losing my nemories. But , i want to start new and be a better person. I want to apologise to each and every person i have ever hurt before"
She is so cute...i want to kiss her.. i shake my thoughts then drink some water to calm myself down.
Everyone looked at her in shock and awe. But still managed to smile , i know they were all suspicious that maybe it's her new way of torturing people.then the king spoke.
" I'm glad to hear that, my daughter. And i think everyone hear agree and appreciate your affirmations" he smiled and everyone agreed.
I looked at her ... she was smiling but there was something else in her eyes ...fear? Sadness? Or something else? I can't really figure out.
The dinner ended, everyone went to their chamber as it was pretty late .i was walking to my chamber. My thoughts filled with her , her voice , her smile , that softness , her soft skin , the delicate walk , her chest rising and falling , the sweat buds over her neck, chest and stomach.
I felt my body heating up. I walked here and there in my room trying to calm down my thoughts and body. I have never felt like this not for any girl. But , one thing...i can't set my mind to is... she's behaving really weirdly.
" Dhruv!" I call firmly
" Hmm.." he spoke
" Keep a close eye on Princess and keep me updated is you see something unusual" i say firmly looking at the moon
" Why? Something's wrong?"
" I'll tell you later...do what i said" i says firmly
" Tsk... This guy and his weird thoughts..." Dhruv murnured
I turned and glared at him " Okay okay.... I'm going" he ran out of the chamber
I look out of the window at the moon....
" What are you hiding , princess?"
