at the late night of banquet, when Abbas didn't find princess anywhere onto the palace. he strode towards her chamber. valet aroused after hearing drawling sound and started guarding. while some guard were still dozing. they were very tired after whole busy schedule due to arrival of the general. they halted him. " forgive me, your majesty to my impudence. but princess is sleeping right now. it's concubine Maahnoor order that. no one could entered in princess chamber.... including you." he was saying with half confidence. his head was tilted to see ground. he doesn't know what would happen next moment.
Abbas gloated at him fiercely. suddenly he started to throttle him. he asked. " you are just a merely servant. and trying to stop me."
he let his throat off to his hand. and entered in the princess chamber. she was not there.
he comes out in rage. and put his sword on one valet neck and asked. " speak out, where is princess?"
valet were shuddering after knowing princess disappearing. there who were dozing comes in there sense. they all scooped down on their knee. and sought clemency. " have mercy, my lord, we didn't know when and where she has gone? we didn't see come out, princess."
he dissected one valet just in a blink of eye without giving him chance to clarify himself. he didn't listen his expression. and his dead body felt in front of everyone.
he said. " if princess would have been loss any hair of head. you all will be end even more worse than her.
all valet got himself so frightened. that, they couldn't uttered any word. they all were trembling.
general didn't pay off attention towards them. he strides away and went by Maahnoor harem. she was busy on her make up happily and she was waiting for the emperor.
suddenly, general barged in her harem. Maahnoor said without seeing him. " my lord, you come early tonight. as he saw her. he yelled at her. " you fool, can't you even take care of one little princess ."
her eyes became widened with bewilderment.
she twirled and asked swiftly. "tell me, what the hell happened to princess."
he babbled. " princess is no longer on her palace."
she didn't stay there another second. she darted towards princess chamber.
she asked about princess with shit scared guard.
they could not say anything. they were still slouched. in front of them, one corpse was lying down. she didn't regard it.
she asked irrational way. " you all useless, how could you let her go without protection. you know that there are many, many... " she stopped and dashed to empress chamber. this errand extent all over fortress. emperor also come in his sense. he also paced towards princess chamber to know whole condition. and ordered courtier to seek princess.
empress Haboos was still unconscious stance on her bed. and concubine Maahnoor darted towards her chamber with indiscriminately gait.
lackey of her palace halted her. " your highness, you can't make to meet her. she is sick. she is not feeling well."
she snapped her with whole strength to exit rage of herself. lackey's face gets red after that. she said. " how dare you inferior people to address me."
as she steps in chamber. she finds empress was lying on the bed.
concubine Maahnoor shrieked at her. " you call yourself mother. you can't even able to look after your own child. how pitiful you are." she gritted her teeth. " it is me who have to taking care of her all the time. and you, you are nonchalantly sleeping yet. how ironic."
she opens her eyes slowly. and she resort to the lackey to stand. after comes on her leg, she smiled slightly. she snapped." you are really good to pretend. you snatched everything to me. I didn't think you would have any reason to come for me. what have you come here here to take now.''
she said frantically. "this is you who always envious to see me with princess and emperor, right. and you want to harm her. I will kill you. you wretch."
Maahnoor jolted her while empress was still confused what's happening? and she closed her eyes again and shoved off her away.
at the same time, emperor passed by this path. he was the eyewitness of her envious behaviour. he bellowed at empress. " how dare you hurt her.even she knows princess is not her child. she always takes care of her. unlike you. who has no heart. "
eunuch comes across his path. and pleaded. " empress is sick and she is not recuperate yet. have mercy, my lord.
he determined. " if it would happen again. then, it won't be forgiven."
eunuch was still cringed. emperor comes to Maahnoor. and asked her.'' if she got hurt anywhere."
she whinned and explained. " it's fine, but, our first priority is princess, my lord."
" you are right, my beloved. " and they turned to find about princess. he also was very attached with her. she is only one daughter in his whole royal family.
as emperor has gone with Maahnoor. eunuch comes running to empress. her eyes was filled with tear. and a tear slided down on her face. she wiped it and asked " what really happened to my daughter.''
Abbas entered on the penitentiary. everyone was being tortured by gaoler who was now prisoner. they were continuously beating them mercilessly.
Abbas seat in front of them. and asked. " speak out, what's your planning? and who is colluding with you guys trying to harm royal family.
one said with miserable voice. " we know nothing. believe us."
he said. " it seems, you won't confess that easily." he stood up to his seat and turned to go out. he ordered. " torment them. until they won't blurt out."
he was listening behind himself scream of them. they were shouting. " we know nothing."
then, he comes out and shrieked. " go search every nook and corner of empire for her. if you all come back without any datum of her. then, your head would be beheaded."
