ISHANI POV
I woke up with my head hurting like someone has banged my head on the wall , soon everything started to play inside my head like a story and my eyes filled with tears not because of what he did with me, but because of my father he killed my father .
In the war you defeat your enemy but that doesn't means that it's important to kill the one who is infront of you .
I got up from the bed and went out with rage forming inside me , hate and disgust this is what I have for that man.
He is not the king, he will never rule this kingdom , he can't sit on my father's throne .
I went in the (Sabha) just to see him doing ritual for becoming the king I was not going to sit back.
"STOP THIS RIGHT NOW " I SAID and everyone looked down , yes you have too because he is not going to rule and if it's necessary to rule then I am the princess I will do it.
I walked in and the lady I don't know who she was looked at me with a smile. I then looked at the man whom I hate the most he was looking at me with a glare .
" rok dijiye ye abhi" I said and pandit ji replied " pr putri ye sambhav NHi hai iss jagah koi na koi to Raj kre GA he " he said and I looked at him " pr vo yee aadmi nhi hai " I said and turned around and then said to Shivay " you don't deserve this Thorne and power " I said and he closed his eyes anger was totally visible on his face.
(STOP THIS now )
(But princess it's impossible, this kingdom needs a kings )
(But he is not the man )
Then he opened his eyes and said " that's it " with so much anger and the whole place went silent . Who he think he is., I am not scared of him .
But what he said next developed horror inside me ." App Jari rkho pandit ji , aur abb mera vivah bhi bhi yahi hoga sath mai , aur vo bhi Rajkumari ishani k sath bas " he said and I looked at him with shock .
(Keep it up Pandit ji, and now my marriage will also take place here, and that too with Princess Shaani.)
" I'll never marry you " I whispered tears welled up in my eyes " I will never marry a man who killed my father " I said this time I screamed, I turned around to leave but he held my wrist and said " i am not asking you it's the rule , if you Win the kingdom in the war then u can marry the daughter of that king " he said and I looked at him with disgust.
" WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ?" I SCREAMED . He didn't replied but ordered pandit ji to carry the ritual till the end of the ritual he didn't let me go.
" ham abhi atey hai " after all the prayer he said to everyone and dragged me out of their sight . " kha le ja rhe hai app hame ?" I asked trying to free my hand .
(I'll just come )
( where are you taking me )
" apko batane ki abb app ke pita ji nhi hai yaha Jo apki sari baat mane ge" he said and I stopped struggling, how can he use my father in every conversation.
( to tell you that your father is not here, who agreed to everything you said.")
He then pushed me in the room and locked the door from inside and said " apke liye accha hoga agr app man Jaye " he said .
(It will be good for you if you agree to this weeding easily)
"you killed my dad I'll never marry you " i said in anger I was hurt because the only person I loved the most is now dead and the person killed him wants me too marry him never
"I am not asking you , I am telling you , you have to marry me " he said and I looked at him in anger
"I am not going to . marry . you get that straight in your head " I spat
" your father must be a good dad but he wasn't a good man not a good king " he said and i losted my patience
"SHUTUP NO WORDS AGAINST HIM , I MADE MYSELF CLEAR I AM NOT GOING TO MARRY YOU " I SCREAMED
I turned to leave but he pulled me back by grabbing my hand and twisted it making me hiss in pain
"you have no other choice , and never ever raise your voice at me " he said while greeting his teeth
"let me show you who is the king here and who is in the power no one is going to help you here huh father's princess " he said and pushed me on bed .
He pinned my hands and came near my ears I was feeling so disgusting , I closed my eyes and he whispered " Rajkumari wla dor gya apka , abb app yaha dasi he hai " he said and pressed my hands hard and I hissed in pain .
(Your princess Era is gone now , you are just a maid here )
He then let go of my hands and got up from me and left the room I also stood up from the bed and roamed in my room I was loosing my mental health .
" no no no no I don't want to marry this monster " I said roaming here and there.
" I'll run away , yes... I'll run away from here " I said and took my necklace that my father gifted me and left to my main room .
I entered in and laid on my bed for some rest as I need energy.
☆. at mid night ☆.
I woke up and sneaked out of my room , shit the security OK OK ishani you can do this I wrapped a shawl around my body and came outside the room without making any noice .
I then rushed and went near the stairs, I hide behind the wall because here I can get caught. I then started going down and soon crossed the stairs too then I reached the down area . OK so close to my victory. I ran there and came near the back door , because the security here is less as compared to the main gate.
Maybe I can jump from the wall . Then I decided to climb the wall and soon jumped outside.
Good job ishani I was about to run when my shawl got stuck in the wood I tried to free it but it was useless so I dropped the shawl there. And ran away .
" OK ishani you are safe now " I said to myself and stopped after I came a little far from the mahel .
I roamed there and wait maybe I can spend my night at the Temple and then in the morning I'll just search for the house.
I decided to go there. I walked there and soon reached the temple of God Shiva, I climbed the stairs and went near the pillar and sat there. The pillar was behind the statue and I think no one will see me here.
(*⌒.⌒*)
AUTHOR POV
Ishani ran away from the Mahel but . Fate is her real enemy. She rested near the pillar and on the very other side.
Shivay and his mother was leading to the temple for shiv Pooja at mid night because today shivay became the king of the kingdom .
Coming in the temple the did the prayer and gave so many things to decorate the statue of shiv and Parvati.
" abb apko iss mandir ki 4 bar parikrima lagani hai" pandit ji said and he smiled nodded he then looked at his Maa and said " Maa you go now , its late the Pooja is done and I'll also be back after some time " she nodded and left with so soilder.
( Now you have to circumambulate this temple four times.")
He started, he removed his pair of sleepers and joined his hands and started the chanting of 'om namh shivay' he completed the 3 circles but when he was doing his last circle he saw a familiar figure , he eyes widen when he saw ishani there. But he didn't said anything and completed his last circle and said to pandit ji .
" App hamara vivah abhi yaha isi samay kra skte hai?" He asked and he nodded shivay smiled at him and went near ishani curled figure , she was so in her slumber she didn't realize that he had picked her up .
(Can you get us married right here and right now?)
Soon her eyes got opened and when she saw her her eyes got widen " leave me. " she said in a clamn voice but he didn't replied " put me down I said " this time she said in a little high voice .
But he again ignored reaching near the mandap he placed her on her feet and she stood there confused and shivay sopked " everything ready?" He asked and pandit ji nodded.
He nodded too he held ishani's hand in a tight grip which made her hiss tears developed in her eyes and forced her to sit down.
At that time ishani was so shocked to even react , this was all so sudden for her , first her dad died and now this weeding and all she was so in her thought when he placed Vermilion in her hair from front some of the dry vermillion was on her nose too. She looked at him just to find him staring at her blankly .
" apki sari hrkte ajj se apke he gum ki wajah banegi" he said and she just stared at him .
(All your actions today will become the reasons of your sorrows )
Soon he placed auspicious thread (Mangalsutra ) around her neck , she didn't saw it coming but then she realised she just closed her eyes and let her tears fall.
This chain was a symbol for that that will remind her everyday everytime every minute evey second that she is now caged .
This vermillion will remind her that she is married to a man who killed her father.
After that he stood up for (phere) [ the ritual of doing 7 circles around the fire] and pulled her up too he carried her in his arms and she just stared the fire and started the ritual .
The pandit ji said " phela vachan yadi aap koee vrat-upavaas ya any koee dhaarmik kaam ya teerthayaatra par jaen to mujhe bhee apane saath lekar jaen. yadi aap ise sveekaar karate hain to main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon." He said
(In this vow, the bride tells the groom that if you go on any fast or any other religious work or pilgrimage, then take me along with you. If you accept this, then I accept to come to your left side.)
But ishani on the other hand thought " kabhi bhi sath nhi dungi mera vachan hai"
(I will never be on your side, I promise.)
He again started " dusra vachan aap apane maata-pita kee tarah hee mere maata-pita ka bhee sammaan karenge aur parivaar kee maryaada ka paalan karenge. yadi aap ise sveekaar karate hain to main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon." He said
(In the second vow, the bride tells the groom that you will respect my parents just like you respect your parents and follow the family's dignity. If you accept this, then I accept to come to your left side.)
But she again thought " kabhi bhi apke Mata pita ka apke samne adar nhi krungi kyuki app mere pita ko mere se alag kr chuke hai ye mera vachan hai"
(I will never respect your parents in front of you because you have separated my father from me, I promise .)
He again spoke " teersa vachan ki aap jeevan kee teenon avasthaon (yuvaavastha, prodhaavastha aur vrddhaavastha) mein mera paalan karenge. yadi aap ise sveekaar karate hain to main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon."
(In the third vow, the bride tells the groom that you will take care of me in all three stages of life (youth, adulthood and old age). If you accept this, then I accept to come to your left side.)
She again thought " kabhi sukh chain se nhi rehne dungi ye mera vachan hai"
(I will not let you live in peace , I promise)
He again spoke " chauta vachan ab ham vivaah bandhan mein bandh rahe hain to bhavishy mein parivaar kee sabhee aavashyakataon kee poorti kee jimmedaaree aapake kandhon par hai. agar aap ise sveekaar karen to main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon."
(In the fourth vow, the bride tells the groom that now that we are getting married, the responsibility of fulfilling all the needs of the family in the future is on your shoulders. If you accept this, then I accept to come to your left side.)
She again thought " kabhi parivar ka sukh prapt nhi hone dungi ye vachan hai mera"
(I will never let you have family happiness , I promise)
He again spoke " pachwa vachan is vachan mein kanya var se kahatee hai ki aap ghar ke kaamon mein, vivaah aadi, len-den aur any koee kharch karate samay aap meree raay liya karenge to main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon.
(In this vow the bride tells the groom that if you take my advice while doing household chores, marriage etc., transactions and any other expenditure then I accept to come to your left side.)
She again thought " kabhi bhi Raye nhi lungi kisi kaam ko krne mai ye vachan hai mera "
(I will never hesitate in doing any work without asking you , I promise )
He then said " chauta vachan is vachan mein kanya var se kahatee hai ki yadi main kabhee saheliyon ke saath rahoon to aap sabake saamane kabhee mera apamaan nahin karenge. jua ya kisee bhee tarah kee buraiyaan apane aap se door rakhenge to hee main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon.
(In this vow, the bride tells the groom that if I am ever with my friends, you will never insult me in front of everyone. If you keep gambling and any other evils away from yourself, then only I accept to come to your left side.)
She said " Har jagah aapman krungi apka ye vachan hai mera "
(I will not help you anywhere , this is my promise.)
He said " aakhri aur satwa vachan is aakhiree vachan mein kanya var se kahatee hai ki aap paraee striyon ko maan samaan samajhenge aur pati-patnee ke aapasee prem ke beech any kisee ko bhee nahin aane denge. yadi aap yah vachan den to hee main aapake vaamaang mein aana sveekaar karatee hoon.
(In this last vow, the bride tells the groom that you will treat other women like your mother and will not let anyone come between the love of husband and wife. If you give this vow, only then will I accept to come to your left side.)
She thought " apni mariyada mai rahugi lekin apko kabhi nazdeek nhi Aane dungi ye vachan hai mera "
(I'll stay modest, but I'll never let you come close to me.)
Pandit ji said " the marriage is done now , take your elders blessings "
He said and went away but shivay left ishani there and went to mahel and here ishani who was burning in the fire of revenge sat there hugging her knees processing what just happened.
Soon rain started to pour as she was sad , (the strom weather depends on her sad crying ) .
The heavy rain started to pour on her head and the vermillion on her head started to flow from her head making it's way down to her face .
She screamed and cried and asked for help from God.
ISHANI POV
The blunder just happened ripped my heart he married me , I married a man who killed my father . I'll never let him live in peace .
I got up and made my way towards the mahel . The sun started to rise and soon I reached near the main door stood there like a dead soul .
They opened the door for me immediately and I went in I knew my condition was not good my all clothes were wet my hairs was a little messy but I cared less I just went in front of her sabha but the darban tried to stop me .
I losted my control and looked at him with fire burning in my eyes and made a circle near him of fire he screamed and I went in and everybody looked at me some of them gasped some of them smirked and the man sitting on my father's throne was looking at me with proud smirk .
And said " App yaha iss waqt nhi a skti " but I looked at him just looked at him with rage in my eyes and soon I set the room on fire the boundaries was having a fire line stopping everyone to go out , he eyes widen but soon cane to normal.
" hame insaff chiye " I said and his mother spoke " putri thuamri ye halt kaise ?" I stooped her in between " ham kisi ki putri nhi ham yaha ki Raj Kumari nhi ham iss Adami ki Patni bhi nhi" I said almost screamed with anger . " hame insaaf chiye iss Adami se iss Adami ne ham se hamari marzi k khilaf vivah Kiya Hai app hi bataye Raj Mata kya ye shi hai " I said .
His face got balnk and her mother gasped. " shiv kya ye Sach hai ? " she asked
I can feel the tears in her eyes but he intrupped " ha Mata ji , aur yahi Hota Aya Hai Maine is rajay pr Vijay kro to Rajkumari se vivah bhi krna Hota Hai " and everyone agreed I looked at them with disbelief.
" ek din pachtana padega " I said and turned around to leave and his mother followed me as I came out I last glanced at him and the fire started spreading more .
