Rithambara was beyond shocked and tensed. Kiss? That also infront of everyone? Back in her culture, it was kind of prohibited to do so in front of any third person but if she would deny kissing him then in a way it will be disrespectful which she didn't want to be.
She had never seen anyone kissing in real life and it added more to her fears and she miserably failed to masquerade her fear this time. She just closed her eyes and prayed to Lord Shiva to help her in a situation where she was totally perplexed .
When Augustus lifted the veil, he couldn't believe what he saw. The brave 'yellow fabric ' stood frozen with eyes closed taking heavy breaths and she looked ummm frightened ? Now, that was something new to Augustus. Then realisation hit him that she might not be knowing about the kissing ritual because no such thing happened in their Indian marriage.
Before he just wanted to get done with the kissing part but now even
Apart from the joy and celebrations, in a corner of the palace, a grave conspiracy was planned which could change the history of Florence . A teetered voice full of vengeance echoed in the room,"now we need to change our plans. It will not be as easy as we thought. "All the three pairs of eyes moved towards the old lady. She continued, "That lady will be a threat, if we don't subside her. The way she glared at Balbina with her determined eyes, speaks a lot about her. Before, it was just Augustus but now she is also in the scene. "After hearing this, a young man full of vehemence spoke, " I can kill her and it is just matter of seconds for me, Stephano. The sooner she dies, better it is for us . " The beautiful young Balbina supported her lover and said, "yes Stephano , my Luca could kill her within seconds and it will make our path easier. " She glanced at Luc
Ritha didn't leave Alessandro's hands till it turn completely blue due to the cut in blood circulation. When she left his hands, it fell on her lap like a lifeless leaf due to numbness. Before Ritha could remove his hands from her lap, it was shooted away by none other than Augustus who understood the matter. His eyes were bleeding rage which made all the commotion cease. Nobody dared to ask any question after seeing the look on his face. Augustus wanted to cut the hands of that prick who dared to touch Ritha but subsided his thoughts as it was an auspicious day for him. He didn't want to start his journey with Ritha by killing or shedding blood. He knew that his queen has already rewarded Alessandro for his actions. The respect and admiration which he had for Rithambara multiplied till infinity. He couldn't stop thinking the about the sudden escalation in their
No sooner did they move away than a glass shattering sound was heard followed by a scream. It broke the magical spell of the beautiful conversation going in between the couple. At first Augustus was bewildered at Ritha's action but soon enough, he saw an arrow passing just inches away from them with a lightening speed. Since, curtains were open, the arrow directly hit the mirror which was reflecting there beautiful and intimate moment just moments ago. Ritha turned around after hearing the scream and without wasting even a single moment, she ran inside followed by Augustus. Thousands of tiny shining glass pieces pricked the foot sole of Rithambara but she didn't care a bit because the glass piece which dared to pierce her son's palm was more painful. Seeing the blood oozing out of her son's hand turned her blood cold. She had seen severe injuries and blood from he
Luca was groaning hard because of the excruciating pain in his left shoulder where arrow had stuck him. His cried echoed breaking the eeriness of the dark side of the palace. He was thankful to Stephano who was present over there who immediately aided his wounds and took him inside. Balbina's tears were not stopping after seeing her lover in so much pain.The old lady, Aelia muttered, " what were you doing over there after delivering the message? You should have come down, idiot. Were you waiting for her to stuck her arrow? Hmm? Master will be so dissapointed with us. " She shook her head. Luca was so ashamed of himself that he couldn't confess to his team that the beauty of the lady intrigued him. How was he supposed to tell them he was so busy in drinking the beauty of the lady that he didn't get the time to react.A gasp escaped her lips when Balbina sniffed and said, "Master already knows. He was in his balcony and saw the whole drama.
Ritha was just metres away from her culprit when she heard Aquila's agonizing scream. The culprit ran away after freeing herself from Aquila's clutches.She used a sharp pointed object to pierce Aquila's arms. Ritha rushed towards Aquila who was sitting on the floor holding her wounded hand . Before she could collapse, Ritha held her tightly in her embrace. Aquila was so ashamed at herself for letting the culprit go but Ritha consoled her that it was completely fine. Ritha looked around but unfortunately couldn't catch even a glimpse of the lady . What she found was a folded paper lying next to Aquila. She picked up the paper and clenched it in her hands. Anger was dancing in her eyes as she believed in fighting face to face unlike cowards who attack from back and play puzzles. She supported Aquila to get up and took her in her room. After cleaning Aquila's wound , Ritha asked her, " did you notice anything in particul
Augustus was fast enough to dodge the attack of the sword. Without turning back, he held the sword from it's tip which caused blood to gush out from his palm. He swiftly rotated the sword and snatched it from the attacker's hand.All the four culprits had an apprehensive look on their face after seeing Augustus's deadly stare. Without sparing even a single second, Augustus attacked the one standing on his left side. The hallway echoed with his brutal scream. Augustus was fast enough to pick up the culprit's fallen sword. It was three against one now with Augustus having two swords in his each hand. Spontaneity being Augustus's key factor, it was easy for him to kill the two. He deliberately didn't kill the third one to get the answers.After crossing the three bodies which were covered in pool of blood, Augustus ran behind the fourth culprit who was trying to run. In a blink of an eye, he held the culprit by his collar and drag
Augustus patted Marcus's back and replied, "I'll take care of myself ,don't worry Marcus. Enough about me, how are you? " Augustus had a loving look on his face towards his brother.Marcus raised his eyebrows making a face and asked him, " you were the one who was attacked and you are asking about my well being. First tell me, what were you looking at? What was so intriguing in your hand that you forgot about your injury? " Augustus sighed loudly knowing that his brother won't let this topic slip. He carefully took out the piece of paper from his pocket and kept it on the table. Marcus's eyes instantly fell on paper which had a painting of an eagle with a little message written beneath it. Marcus was utterly confused, "what's this?"Augustus clenched his jaws and said in a frosty tone, "that's what I am trying to find out. I won't spare this bastard or bastards if they are more than one in number once they are under my clu
Marcus huffed and said, "fine, it's Ritha... "He was interrupted by Augustus's angry voice, "don't you dare complete that sentence. "Marcus was confused at first but when the matter dawned upon him, he smirked at his brother. Augustus thought that he was saying that the lady was Ritha which was not the case with Marcus. Marcus wanted to further tease Augustus but decided against it when he saw the angry look in his eyes. He completed, "right now I said that Ritha is like my sister , I'm talking about her female protector, Aquila. "Marcus rolled his eyes when he saw Augustus releasing a sigh of relief. "You are smitten by your wife's charm and grace. " mocked Marcus."Forget about me, plan about your wedding with Aquila. Right now, these cowards are a big issue for me. " Augustus masked his happiness and this time, he wanted to divert the topic.Marcus's playful looks went away when he saw the serious looks on his brother's face. He felt sy
