Her pov
I was more happy today than any other day as it is my janamdin ,and father has promised to gift me something special that made me restless to know what is it..
I woke up in my chamber with the sound of birds chirping outside ,that disturbed my sleep. I sit in the bed to allow the rays of sunlight to kiss my cheeks and prayed to god to bless my state with all goodness. I heard my friends, royal maids of mine entering my chamber giggling. They are like my friends to me who always stand with me in every situation.
'Princess, get up from your bed, we have to make u get ready for the royal function of your birthday ' Vani the friend if mine said by showing all the accessories they have brought for me.
I was still sitting bored of to get off from the bed, but jumped from it when i saw devi maa entering my chamber.Devi maa is my caretaker fixed by dad from my childhood onwards when my mother passed away. She is loving and caring to me like my maa, so i call her devi maa.
Devi maa glared at me, that made me run from my bed to the bathroom set for me in a hurry. I always obeys her and respects her. I will never hurt my loved one's even with my eyes.
The pool inside the bathing area is set for me with rose petals and sandalwood..
I went inside it to feel the cold water touching my skin. Attendees started applying different kind of pastes on me , and then finally bathed me on milk..When i finished it, they took me to my chamber, started making me ready for the function. Devi maa has kept a beautiful lehanga for me there.
My wet hair is sprayed with some aromas and made me get ready in my final look
'Beautiful ' devi maa told from behind for which i returned a smile
'Princess u look ravishing in this outfit, i hope no prince will see u like this, other wise he will kidnapp you from our country ' Vaani teased me , that made me hard to controll my blush.
'No one will dare to take me without my permission. They will have to face my sword then ' i said sternly that made a proud smile in all their faces.
By giving a final look at mirror , i started walking with my attendees to the royal hall where all are waiting for me including my father.
I was about to enter there , when i heard my father saying 'where is my princess, i hope she find no difficulty this time..why she is late to come her ' i felt blessed to have him as my father. I smiled at his words and entered the hall
Im here father' i said standing at the entrance
Attention ,The princess of Rajgarh , Kumari Monami Deshmukh is entering the royal hall ' the announcement made everyone stand from their seats and looked at me.I slowly walked toward my father by wishing everyone. I took blessings from our royal ministers and pandits .
Finally i reached near my father, touched his feet for his blessings. He hugged me and made me sit in my seat.'Im so happy today that my princess is turning 20 in this beautiful day. Me and our queen was blessed with our princess 20 years ago which was the best moment in our life. She is my strength and pride of my state ' father said to everyone that me my eyes wet with happy tears
'I would love to announce this day that i will handover the defense matter of our state to my princess as she has already proved to be the best warrior of Rajgarh . This is my birthday gift for my daughter ' he made me astonished by the surprise.
I have never expected to get a chance to serve my state , as my father has his complete trust on me even if iam a girl.
I stood up from my seat and hugged him in joy to show my gratitude.. he asked me to speak infront.'This is the bestest gift i have ever got on my birthday. On this special day iam grateful to my father for trusting me to hand over a part of his power of despite of me as a girl . I want to make this opportunity an example for all the people in our state to trust their daughters and treat them equally like their son. i will not spare any atrocities or inequalities against anyone, especially women and children in my state. I will make sure that all my people are safe in our land from any evil eyes. I will protect my people and my state even if i have to sacrifice my life for that . I promise this on behalf of the majesty' i completed my speech that ended up in everyone praising my name in loud.
Now it is the time to go to our royal temple to do special puja for the dieti by my hands. I would like to walk through the place ,so rejected the chariot that was arranged for me. I walked with my friends enjoying the beauty of rajgarh .
We reached the temple ,and the puja has began. I wished for the wellbeing and prosperity of my state and people to the god and finished continued the arti.
The puja plate from my hand fell down when my ears got pierced by the shocking news from the soldier running to me saying ' Princess, our palace is attacked by the yuvraj of Mewar and his army '
His words made me frozen for a second.
I stood up from there and was about to enter the royal horse of soldier to reach the palace..but i was blocked my way by the army of our enemies..I get down from the horse and found we are surrounded by their soldiers. I made sure that the women with me are safe , took the sword from my soldier and stood infront of the women to protect them.
Its the time to punish them for attacking my mother land .
Har har Mahadev i started to fight with them...
