Chapter 17 - A Thousand Lifetimes
"We're sleeping in the same bed, and that's final. You don't have another option."
"I can't sleep in the same bed as you," Ahankara retorted.
Yashvir narrowed his eyes at her, and pulled her close to himself by her wrist. "Why not?"
She gasped, trying to get her wrist free as she stared at him with wide eyes.
"I don't trust you," she muttered softly.
"You don't what?" His lips cracked into an amused smile.
"I-I don't trust you," Ahankara repeated, still struggling to get her wrist free.
Yashvir pursed his lips, still smiling. He caught hold of her other wrist as well, and pushed her back, making her lie down on the bed.
"What are you doing?" She asked with wide eyes, her heart instantly beating faster.
He climbed on top of her, straddling her body.
"You think... I'd take advantage of a sleeping woman?" He

"Rajkumari?" Someone said softly, lightly shaking Ahankara by her arm. "Rajkumari?""Who is it?" Ahankara's eyes shot open and she sat up, looking around. It was a maid, who quickly stepped away from her, her eyes downcast."Khamma Ghanni Rajkumari," she joined her hands. "I am your personal maid. My name is Heer.""Ghanni Khamma," Ahankara replied, heaving a sigh of relief. She had been startled when Heer was waking her up."Rajkumari, should I draw a bath for you? Rani Aaradhya was asking about you," she said softly, her eyes fixed on the ground."Yes, please do that Heer," Ahankara yawned, covering her mouth. "And, Rani Aaradhya, as in the King's second wife?""Yes, Rajkumari," she nodded."Tell me something, um, Rajkumari Shivanya, and Rajkumari Phool. They're both Maharani Hansa Bai's daughters, right?" Ahankara inquired."Yes, Rajkum
Of Flames and Roses Chapter 19 - Rani Aaradhya
"You called me, Rani Aaradhya?" Ahankara questioned, when Rani Aaradhya did not say anything to her for a few moments. She just sat there quietly, getting her legs pressed by two maids, as she silently stared at Ahankara. Looking at her from head to toe, her eyes slightly narrowed."Hmm," she responded, now looking away from her, as she gestured to the maids to stop. "Leave us," she ordered them, as she slowly stood up from her seat. The maids obliged immediately, and Rani Aaradhya walked up to Ahankara, radiating an overly intimidating aura. Ahankara could not deny how beautiful Rani Aaradhya was, but her eyes held something negative, a distaste directed to her, which made her feel uncomfortable."So you're the supposed beauty who stole the Yuvraj's heart," Aaradhya said, glaring daggers at Ahankara, as she started to walk around her, carefully studying her.Ahankara opened her mouth to reply, but realized that she was at

"Your hair is so shiny, Rajkumari," Heer complimented, as the comb went through her thick brown locks smoothly."Thank you," Ahankara smiled, as she continued to work on the small piece of cloth she was decorating with embroidery."Maharani Hansa Bai of Kalang is arriving!" One of the servants outside announced, to inform her of the Queen's arrival into her bedroom. Ahankara placed the small cloth of embroidery on the dressing table, standing up in respect for her mother-in-law. She entered Ahankara's room followed by her personal maid, who accompanied the Maharani everywhere she went."Khamma Ghanni, Maharani Sa," Ahankara joined her hands in greeting."Ghanni Khamma," Hansa Bai nodded at her. "I need to speak to you, Rajkumari Ahankara.""Of course, Maharani Sa. What is it?""Did you say something to the Yuvraj? Have you two been in a fight?" She questioned, making Ahank

"I was thinking, Maa Sa isn't convinced that we have a good relationship. So how about we give her proof?" Yashvir smirked, his dark, thirsty glance moving to her neck."Yashvir," Ahankara breathed, as she struggled to get her wrists free. "Please don't do this.""I promise, you'll love it, my beautiful wife. It won't hurt," Yashvir replied."Yashvir, please don't," she continued to plead with him."Just relax, you don't have to be so afraid. Now close your eyes, and get ready to experience the best feeling of your life."Ahankara shook her head, struggling to get her wrists free, while Yashvir stared at her with a small smirk on his face. He began to lean in, very slowly, making Ahankara's heart beat faster with every second."Yashvir," she whispered, her eyebrows knitted together."Relax," he chuckled, leaning away again. "I'm just joking."

"What?" She asked, frowning."I need a promise from you."Ahankara blinked. "What kind of promise?"Yashvir stepped closer to her, but she backed away from him. He sighed, and then gently cupped her cheeks, not stepping any closer to her."I want you to promise me, that no matter what happens, you will always remain loyal to me, and to Kalang. No matter what happens, even if you get a chance to, you will never try to escape. Because Ahankara, this is not a prison for you. This is your home now, and I can only make you feel at home if you are willing to accept this Castle as yours. So promise me, you're not going to abandon Kalang, or me," he said softly.Ahankara stared into his eyes with her mouth parted, as she thought over his words. Was he asking too much? Definitely."You mean I should stay with you no matter how you treat me?" Ahankara questioned."N

"You were snoring. Like a wounded animal," Ahankara said through a clenched jaw, glaring at him accusingly."What?" Yashvir asked in disbelief. "Seriously? Like a wounded animal?""Yes, like a wounded animal," Ahankara replied."So you just woke me up? Because I was snoring?""Yes. Obviously. What else did you expect?" She narrowed her eyes.Yashvir stared at her for a moment, before shifting closer to her, making her frown. He then said softly, "You know, my Love, I'm actually going to be King very soon. So I have a million responsibilities to take care of, a lot of burdens, stress. I really need to sleep properly to take care of those." He gave her a small smile. "So next time, do not wake me up just because I'm snoring," he snapped suddenly, glaring at her. Ahankara flinched at the sudden change of tone, before glaring at him."You claim to love me more than anything, a

Yashvir touched the small cut on his cheek, and brought his finger before his eyes to find blood. Maharani Hansa Bai's royal ring had really left a mark on his face. And it stung."What have I done?" Yashvir raised an eyebrow. "What were you about to do, Maa Sa?" He questioned in disbelief. His jaw was clenched, and his fists were now balled on his sides."What else did you expect? Do you know the manner in which she was talking to me?" Hansa Bai glared at Ahankara, who quietly moved to the side, allowing herself to be completely blocked from view by Yashvir's large figure."I know. I was right outside, listening to the conversation," Yashvir stated, crossing his arms."And still you're questioning my actions?" Hansa Bai narrowed her eyes into slits."Of course. Not a single word that she said was wrong, Maa Sa. Not even one. And even if you felt offended by any of it, you could h

"Get off me! What are you doing?" Ahankara yelled, making Yashvir cover her mouth. He leaned in, and placed his lips close to her ear."I don't need you to be asleep in order to take advantage of you, my Love. I'm very much capable of doing so when you're still awake, whilst you're staring at me with those beautiful brown eyes of yours. The reason I do not do anything, is not because I can't. It's because I love you. So never accuse me of disrespecting you in that manner again, or I'll show you what I can actually do."Ahankara stared at him with wide eyes, her heart knocking at her ribs wildly. Her body was trembling out of fear, and even after he let go of her and stood up, the fear did not leave her body. She sat up, hugging herself, as she stared at him in shock, her breath heavy."Relax," Yashvir said, rolling his eyes."Get out," Ahankara whispered."Huh?" Yashvir raised an eyebrow.
