Chapter 31

All the elders and both Satyapriya and Dristadeva were assembled in a place. Ugrasena sat like a chairman of the gathering. Krishna and Balarama looked at each other after listening to Vatsala's condition. Dristadeva looked at Satyapriya but she didn't even tried to look up she just stood gazing the floor.

" Deva shall be crowned as King of the region of Vitasta river and then wedding but only this Deva and his wife should live there itself " Vatsala repeated and specially stressed upon last words more.

Deeptiman looked at his wives. Aparna was quiet but yet he could sense her puzzled mind but Rajeswari was fisting her palm she appeared like a volcano ready to burst at anytime.

" Atte, I respect your every words no doubt in that I don't know your intention behind this but I feel like you are purchasing my love " Dristadeva said.

" Not only love you are purchasing my son Vatsala" Rajeshwari spoke out.

" I don't want any kingdom I don't wanna be a king till today I haven't even wished for a gold coin for myself. The first time ever if I have wished to own something is Satya that's all I don't have any interest in ruling kingdom " Dristadeva said.

" And that's not his mistake Vatsu anyhow he won't have any title at all so we brought up him like this" Aparna clarified.

" So what Bhabhi?! Now he will learn " Vatsala said.

" If you are doubting about my ability to look after her like a princess do not even consider it I can do anything to keep her happy " Dristadeva said.

Vatsala was about to say something but Ugrasena interrupted.

" Vatsu, I too feel like you are purchasing his love for your daughter in the exchange of luxuries that's not good dear " He said.

" Correct. Vatsu remember your life itself your mother too denied your alliance with Abhimanyu because he had no title that time and it was your Kakashree who United you with him unable to see your grief without Abhi. You are repeating the same view which happened in your life " Vasudeva said.

" Abhimanyu never accepted himself being a prince of Dwaraka or Mathura even after marrying you and you supported him but now you are asked Dristadeva to accept the title after marrying Satya. That's not fair dear " He said again.

" We all said Revati's concern was wrong that day and today that can't become right Vatsu. Even if this alliance will be not supported and if Satya marries some other guy then she would live like how you would have lived with Lakshman " Devaki spoke out Vatsala just closed her in hesitation she never wanted to even imagine someone instead of Abhimanyu.

" Just an example dear don't take it to heart " Vasudeva said.

Vatsala looked at Satyapriya who smiled at her and then looked at Krishna who also gave a faint smile.

" It was a small attempt to change the future, but it didn't help to avoid the day that could come in future I should not put my child into the dungeon of luxuries and long life" Vatsala thought.

" Maa Deva is a good guy I am there for Satya I shall never let any sorrow to touch her and moreover she going to Dwaraka where everyone loves her and mainly Deva we can't find such a perfect match for Satya who could love her this much please maa let us get them married " Parikshit said.

" Kalaya Tasmai Namaha " Vatsala said blinking away her tears.

" Bhrata, will you accept my daughter as your daughter in law ?" Vatsala asked Deeptiman.

Dristadeva and Satyapriya cried out of happiness. Everyone gave out the sigh of relief at once. Yudhishtira was also happy with the alliance.

Satyapriya hugged her mother and cried. Vatsala rubbed her cheeks.
