Author's POV

Adhira didn't even look at the person in front of her... Her eyes were red from crying and the tip of her nose was also red..

She was crying mutely.. Her thoughts all around her parents... Especially her dad.. He was bleeding but she couldn't even go to him..

Aruthran's choppers landed in front of his palace... In a few seconds, the doors of the chopper opened, and Aruthran got down first..

"Welcome to my palace..baby girl.."
As Aruthran extended his hands to her, Adhira went down with her face on the other side.

She didn't even look at him..
He smiled at her actions..

A woman aged between forty and fifty came there..

Aruthran to her..
" Chinnamma.. From now on, she is your responsibility.. Whatever she asks give her..."

He said to her with determination.
She had no idea who is that girl.. Because this is the first time he bring a girl from somewhere..

She looked at him confused..
"Who is this girl.." she asked..

He saw Adhira while saying,

"She is the queen of my palace"
He left from there leaving the ladies..

"Come here ma." Chinnamma bring her inside..

Adhira has heard about palaces in ancient stories and imagined somehow with her knowledge how it would be like..

But Aruthran's palace was shining with awe-inspiring beauty beyond imagination..

Maybe because the palace had sensed the arrival of the empress.. its beauty was even greater..

Chinnamma showed Adhira, her room.. "Look here ma.. you looked so tired.. First freshen up.. then eat and rest for a while.. I will come after.."

After saying that she left from there..

It was like standing on fire for Adhira.. 'only one chance.. one chance.. to escape from here..' she thought in her mind..

She looked up at the maids standing in front of her..

"I wanted to be alone..."
Adhira told them..

One of them..
"Jahan mam told us to stay with you and take care of you.."

As she said, Adhira suddenly took the knife and put on her wrist

"If you're not leave here, I will cut my hand with this knife.. "

They were afraid cuz they thought,she will do that anytime.. So they left immediately.. Adhira went behind them and closed the big door of her room...

***

Aruthran came to Adhira's room before going to bed..

"Did her yell at you?.."

He asked the maids who are assigned to take care of her..
They nodded..

"Ok.. you guys go.. " He said..

They left.. After he opened her door, it didn't open.. Cuz she locked it from inside.. He smiled and placed his thumb on the small scanner next to the door handle, the next moment the big door was opened.. Then Who's the owner..

He took a sip of the grape wine in his hand and entered.

Adhira was sleeping on the bed.. She was very tired.. Tears had dried up on her face as a sign of crying for long time..

On the table beside her bed there were various kinds of food items.. But there was no sign of her eating anything..

Aruthran's Mind
" So she will be like this for life long "
(He smirked) I have to take care this with my own way..

She slept like a baby..

She clutched the pillow tightly with one hand and held a fruit cutter in the other hand for self-defense..

Aruthran smiled at that, placed the wine glass in his hand on the nearby table and slowly took the knife from her hand, left it on the table..

And make her sleep comfortably and placed blanket on her...

And he left from there..
