Under the King's GAZE || MaNan

"Dhanush! Your hukum has been feeling lost after he has returned to the kingdom. What could the reason be?"

"Rajmata, Maharaj demanded for rest, therefore for a week, he asked me to spectate every policy and administration matter. He must be needing entertainment and some fun for now! After all, he has been the greatest warrior of all time. " Dhanush obediently replied to the most powerful woman of the entire Saamrajya (empire). 

She, the one who gave birth to the one who was never defeated, who was never questioned, who was never tamed. She, the only woman who had the most frightening and dangerous man on his knees. She, the one whose bravery and intelligence has made him what he is today. She, the one who brought Mahamrityunjay Manikkam Mahadwitikara to existence. Only she could make him bow.

Raja sahab has been sleeping for a while lately. He was consumed in war for the last 3 months and further the baggage of traveling back to the country winding up all the post war administration and official works has been tremendously tiring for him. Not that his wounds could stop him from sword practices, games and horse riding but he wished to be in his chamber; sleeping. 

Rajmata was in utter surprise, rather shocked that he stayed at home for more than 3 days and counting. She would make every possible arrangement for her son to be in utmost peace and celebration. From his kind of food, to bathe, to wine, to sex; she took proper care of works. Without a complaint or awkwardness, she had been doing it since her son was 18. It was her duty more than an obligation because the Raniwada (palace for women under his custody) still was under her and she desperately wanted him to bring a wife and start his marital life full of children here and there. But he never heard her beyond the word marriage.

To be honest, she quests for her grandchildren as she loves children. But with her son's never ending attitude for the whole idea of marriage and woman claimed as wife; always got on her nerves. At the same time she never wanted her grandchild from a concubine or mistress, therefore she assured that all the women who he laid himself with were all barren. She has also arranged a special urq (medicinal liquid) from the royal haqeem (doctor) that if consumed by a woman till 48 hrs of intercourse- would null the formation of their seeds inside. She kept in for situations where Mrityunjay himself chooses a woman for the night who might or might not be barren. Therefore, she could rarely use the urq as he never asked for a woman, himself.

"That is the issue Dhanush! He isn't talking or playing with his horse. He isn't moving from his bed yet he didn't touch any seductress. What sort of fun is he having when all the wine and hukkah is untouched, he didn't even have proper royal food. He is just on dry fruits for the past few days."

"Umm--- R-rajmata---I---"

"I understand. Keep me updated about the kingdom and you may leave."

"Bless us all Rajmata." he bowed and left her in a more puzzled situation.

Days passed by but the king was reluctant to leave his chamber. He didn't face anybody. Every hour a new woman would be sent to his door but he would glare and they gulped. The king was really frustrated with something or god knows what. It was last to last evening when Chandrakala, was called from miles far for the king. She was the first who took the king's virginity. She has been special to him in a way that she had the liberty to visit him and urge for her time. This always made her overpowered with attitude and ego that she even claimed that she would be the only one that the king would choose to marry off and no doubt she had mesmerizing beauty. But what happened that evening brought her to land in seconds and left a never ending frown on Rajmata who was bothered for her son.
