*Jay Pov*I can feel her stirring in my arms and then her stiffening after a few minutes. Then I felt her slowly moving my hands away, which are around her.“Do you really feel unsafe with me?” I whispered and met silence.I opened my eyes to see her giving me a glanced before closing her eyes. She opened her mouth a few times and closed it.“Forget the question.” I mumbled moving away and got up from the bed.By the time I walked out of the washroom, she walked towards me and got inside it before locking the door.I got ready lost in my thoughts, but glanced to my side to see her standing there with a frown covering her face while staring at her clothes.“Wear this!” I whispered and hugged her from behind.“Jay!” she whispered, pushing my hands away, but I held on to her.“What?” I asked brushing my lips on her cheek and then her neck before nuzzling it.“Leave me!” she replied, but I sighed pressing my chin on her shoulder.“Don’t do this to us.” I stated making her turn to stare at

*Jay Pov*I felt her stirring in my arms and thought she would try to untangle herself from me like every time. However, she snuggled more holding me back tightly.“Good morning!” I whispered, pressing my lips to her cheek and saw her grinning with eyes still closed.“Good morning!” she mumbled and slowly sat up to make a bun of her hair while I stared at her lazily.“I took my first leave yesterday.” She said sighing.“And?” I asked, trailing my finger on her back.“I don’t want to go today, but I have to.” She replied, turning her head to glance at me.“Just two more days and it’s the weekend.” I said, assuring her with grin to which she glared at me.“Fine! I will go and get ready.” She said and was about to move away, but I held her hand and pulled her onto me with a force.“Today I will drop you both and will pick you up. We will go somewhere.” I said, smiling, but she shook her head.“We will come here soon and no need to go out.” She said and I nodded liking her idea more.“I w

“A wife?” I asked the people before me in a whisper.“Yes! And he has a son also who is eleven years old.” My darling assistant in this place said smugly and I know I can use darling along with her only when I want to be sarcastic.And I want to be sarcastic like hell otherwise I don’t know what will do after hearing this betrayal. He acted like he is interested in me, but he has a wife and son. How could he?I will kill him if I ever see him again. With that though I turned away from the group and started working with a force wishing the ground I am digging is his body.“You are here!” hearing those words made me stop and take a few breaths otherwise I know I will do whatever I was imagining.“And you are a married person with a son.” I said without moving and again started digging.“I…” he didn’t finish when we heard someone calling me.“Excuse me, your highness!” with those words I walked off ignoring his stare following me.After I covered everything and luckily with no other en

Before Ten years*Abdullah Pov*“Ali! The list of prospective brides have been made and sent by the kingdom council. Choose one if you want or else I will choose one for you.” I stated passing the file towards him over the table.However, he just sat there staring at me with a blank face before whispering, “I don’t want any of them.”“Did you choose anyone by yourself? Let me know her details and I will decide whether she is suitable to be a queen for this kingdom or not.” I said, hoping she is at least a princess of some small place.“No! I don’t want to marry at this age.” He said, frowning at me and I felt my minister stiffening beside me.“You are 21 years old, Ali. Why do you want to wait?” I asked, gesturing to the minister to keep calm.“All my friends are still studying further and you want me to marry?” he asked standing up.“I know! It was my mistake to send you to normal schools. I should have kept you within the kingdom, but your Mother was too stubborn. If she was here no

*Nicole Pov*I thought yesterday the day got better then I don’t know what to describe today as because when I walked near to the place where I am supposed to work, he gave a nod pausing his work.Seeing that I paused myself not knowing what to say about that. Should I react anything and will he even acknowledge my reaction?So in the end I ignored it and prepared myself for a meeting with my team regarding the progress we made in this one week.“Ask the workers to be present for this meeting, Rahim. Now, they are part of this too.” I said when he reached me to inform everyone ready for the meeting.I waited for the workers along with the team and to my surprise along with everyone, even the Prince walked near to us.“I am sure we all had time to adjust to the area and get a feel of it. Now, we have removed some part of coverings from different spots. Any of you feel we shouldn’t get involved in searching for artifacts ourselves from this point onwards? I mean to say, any of you thin
