Slayer turned Saviour

Thakur...??

The whole palace was decorated beautifully with lights and flowers. The aesthetics and magnificence of the Jaigadh palace was the talk of the night amongst everyone present there.

Prince Aryan was standing at the end of the stairs, mesmerised by one woman so much that his eyes were transfixed on her.

"Your highness,I congratulate on your wedding." Madhav greeted him while offering him wine.

"Your highness" he called him again.

Still no response. He looked at the Prince's smiling face and looked in the direction where Prince eyes' were resting. He smiled to himself,

The one who has never been defeated by anyone has lost his heart to a woman and yet he is standing here...smiling.

He shook Aryan with his hand, "Your highness! Control yourself. Everyone is watching."

Finally Aryan diverted his attention to Madhav, "Madhav, my friend. How are you doing?"

"I am fine, your highness. But seems like you are not."

Aryan cleared his throat and said,"There is nothing like that. Why do you think so?"

"Do you want me to answer as your friend?"

Aryan nodded.

"A lovesick fool." Madhav snickered.

"You..."

Madhav raised his hands in air and spoke, "Well...you asked me to answer as your friend. Talking on the concerned matter, why don't you go and talk to bhabhi?"

"A single man giving me advice...humfff. Wait, bhabhi? As long as I know you did not like her." Aryan raised his eyebrow at him.

"I never said I do not like her. I was just wary because we did not know anything about her."

"And now?"

"Now I know she is a good person. She has helped my little sister a lot by teaching her various things. As a matter of fact , she even saved her life once years ago. I just came to know few days back that she was the one.Besides she is so smart and helped me with few strategies too. I never thought she would become my friend in such a short time span" Madhav smiled at him.

"You talked with her? That too, this many times? And friends?" Aryan narrowed his eyes at him.

Madhav thought it was time to disappear before he starts his long chapter of interrogation.

Aryan again moved his gaze on Imlie where she was talking with some lady along with Arpi so sweetly and smiling all the while.

This is just great Aryan.
She talks with everyone but with him, she fights.
Befriends everyone but thinks him as her enemy.
Smiles at everyone but glares him all the time.
Jungli....

He was thinking about something Madhav told him earlier, related to the information he got on Sangraam when a girl's hand held his arm.

"Good evening, My Darling ."

Aryan grimaced at the high pitched shrieked voice which belonged to the hand on his arm. He looked in her direction and said, "Hello Princess Usha! I hope you are doing fine and I hope you do not use such endearments next time as you know I am a married man. I do not appreciate it and I do not think my wife will either."

But will she be bothered by this ? Nah! Do not get your hopes high Aryan. I am sure she must be laughing by seeing me bothered. Aryan laughed at the thought.

For now let's just get rid of her, Aryan.

"Excuse me, I have to leave."

"Where are you going my darling? We just met. Let us chat for a while. I have not seen you since so long. You look more and more handsome, sweetheart. Oh and I am so sad darling. Why do you have to marry that woman? Anyways shall we dance? Afterall we are childhood partners."she whined.
