All colours drained from king Atticus's face. He didn't want Ritha to know about Justus in such a way. He wanted to have a conversation with her and make her understand but now the truth was unveiled in most brutal way.Rithambara was yet to process this information in her head. His husband has a son? He was married before ? She's his second wife? She left her land with her husband and her father in law and as soon as she put her first step in the palace, she received the biggest shock of her life. She wanted to yell at all of them for betraying her and most importantly her father's trust but she thought it is better to behave maturely because decisions taken in hurry can change lives. She just looked at the child in her hand. For a moment she felt that twinkle in his eyes could guide her through the secrets of this unknown land but that didn't stop her from glaring at Augustus. She wanted answers and she knew she will have it.On the othe

After the little encounter with her sister- in- laws , Ritha came back to feed Justus and the scene ahead caused a grin to spread on her lips. Her husband was trying to make Justus eat but the little boy was adamant to wait for Ritha. 'Her husband' this adjective sounded so foreign to Ritha because till now, they didn't even have a civil conversation so friendship or some sort of cordial bond was out of question. Undeniably, he was a very attractive man but his attitude was something which Ritha could not stand . She pondered over the promise which she made to her father in law which was to support her husband and she was determined to fulfil it keeping aside their differences.   When Augustus saw Ritha standing and thinking about something, he could not stop admiring her beauty and maturity. He was amazed to see her acceptane to be Justus's mother instantly without asking even a single question . He saw the loving look in her eyes for Justus and was p

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

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

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.
