Yes, I am with that I pulled out the dagger from my waistband aiming at his heart " Get ready prince " I mumbled and launched the dagger aiming right through his heart, the knife went piercing through his heart as a spill of  his blood painted my face his eyes narrowed in pain and cried out in anguish falling on his knees, he crumpled down on the floor and his eyes shut

" Did I kill him ?" She muttered staring at her trembling hands which were bathed in his blood her lover's blood

I didn't notice that I was crying until a drop of tear fell from my eyes

Did I just kill him?

The dagger fell from my shivering hands onto the ground with a thud sound

Did I just?

No no, it can't be Mayank is not dead the dagger was supposed to send him to sleep

Then blood?

crouching down beside his limp body " Mayank wake up "patting his cheeks" please wake up" in a pleading voice her voice cracked with each word " how..how..how," she spoke in between hiccups " is ..how is this possible" she sobbed, "  Idiot  am sorry I... I should not have listened to Riyaz it's my fault I should not have believed him in the first place" she slapped herself " this is my fault "she spoke as she burst out crying loudly " please don't leave me am sorry " she murmured 

"The dagger was supposed to send u....." She trailed off as she hugged him tightly weeping  on his chest

" Sleep "

" yea sleep I didn't......." she paused " wait " she lift her head from his chest to see his eyes wide open and watched her with amusement. The blood was no longer there and the gash in his skin was healed

" u ..ur alive " her voice quivered he shook his head  " no am a ghost" he mocked her she immediately hugged him tightly as he wrapped his arms around her   " so that was, " she asked freeing herself from his arms " well u see chocolate when u were too busy staring at the painting I took this as an opportunity to use one of my favourite power I am a hunter who can run fast let's say much faster than light can ever travel I immediately replaced the stellite dagger with a normal one since am an immortal just like you. It  was not going to affect me "

She shook her head processing every word " so that means this all ...." She trailed off

" Why did u talk to Riyaz ? " he asked out of the blue

" huh? "

" Don't act as if u don't know anything"

" I.."  She halted deciding whether to tell him the truth or not since he was one step ahead of time but she had something else to ask before she answered him

" How did you know I was going to injure you? " He was hiding something from her she knew that and the fact that she  was not yet exposed to the full truth made her anxious

" I raised a question first so you need to answer me first " he replied bluntly

" I will answer once you respond to mine first " she spoke she was determined to not budge away from the topic

" U see chocolate I don't think I am accustomed to answering such a question " he replied in a serious tone but the slight tug at the corner of his lips gave it all this bastard was playing with her

" Oh so why is it that you can't tell me prince ? " she sneered at him

" but since you are genuinely curious think how could I know that you were going to stab me ? " he asked her in return she glared at him " if I knew then why would I ask you" she murmured

" Let me give you an offer since ur too eager to escape from me I will let u free " her eyes narrowed at this " but on one condition "

" What condition?" She asked curiously

" Looks like the Curiosity caught the cat " he whispered amusement dancing in his eyes

" Just cut to the chase, Mr Prince What Condition is it ?" She snarled irritation cleared written in her eyes

" This " he mentioned

" What? " her brows knitted together in confusion

" Find out the answer to your question, How did I know that you are going to stab me " he muttered

" And then If u tell me the correct answer How ? by tomorrow dusk I will let u free " he challenged her .

" is it true" she glanced at him in a skeptical way. What if he was playing one of his sick jokes on her

" I am not lying " 

" Really " she glared at him still suspicious about his offer

" Yes " he blinked his eyes sincerely at her

~~~~~~

Mridula paced in her room thinking about all the possible ways but before that, she needed to warn Riyaz or meet him since she told Mayank about it  " Miss Mridula" she heard Riyaz's voice from the back she immediately spun around but there was no one but a piece of blank paper lying on the ground she immediately picked it up unrolling it she went near a firepot and threw the paper just like before a spark shot up but this time instead of any dagger or any other thing words written in blue appeared in the air

" If  you are reading this that means you have failed "

She stared at the words that appeared in the air and sighed so she did fail

she closed her eyes squeezing the bridge of her nose and whined " uh how am I supposed to deal with this " she yelled at herself
