The Destined King

Episode 54

Virika was crying her heart out while Rukmini and Abhay were trying to console her.

"Are you coming out or do you want the groom to leave?" asked Saanjh, coming inside.

"Saanjh, she can't marry him, let him go, we will apologize to him later," said Rukmini.

"First thing, I am the queen and you can't call me by name. Next, who are we to apologize when she herself agreed for this marriage?" asked Saanjh.

"I was forced," said Virika, crying.

"Saanjh, leave us alone," said Abhay.

"This is a Royal family, not a business family, we can't create any sensational news before your coronation, don't forget your coronation is in a few days," said Saanjh.

"I am also from a Royal family, but that doesn't mean we can't understand someone's emotions, we have people to manage controversies, and if she doesn't want to get married, then she will not," said Rukmini.

"Wow, I thought you don't have a tongue," said Saanjh.

"She is right, I can't spoil everything at this moment," said Virika and Abhay nodded his head as no.

"No bro, I have to do this," said Virika.

"Vir, we can manage," said Rukmini.

"I know you can manage everything, but still I don't want anyone to point fingers at my brother on the day of coronation, and you know if I won't get married, that will surely happen," said Virika.

"I can handle them," said Abhay.

"You can't bro, they will try to break you in many ways and I don't want you to be like our dad, you are strong, and I am not going to allow anybody to raise their fingers at you," said Virika.

"Do you mean to say dad was not strong?" asked Abhay.

"Dad was strong, but he had one weakness and that is his family. He used to trust his people a lot, and he trusted you a lot and you are never going to break his trust. He lived for his people and you are also going to do that," said Virika, cleaning her face and walking towards the door.

"Vir," said Rukmini, but Virika stopped her by showing her hand.

They all reached the hall where the arrangements were made and saw Isha standing there, holding Radha's hand.

As soon as Abhay saw Isha, he turned his head to the other side, while Rukmini looked at her with a scowl, while Virika went and settled beside the groom.

Kavya, Rohan and Abhay performed the rituals, while Isha looked at Abhay with a scowl as he didn't care about her marriage.

After the marriage rituals are over and he filled her hair partition with vermillion and tied the nuptial chain. Virika's eyes welled up with tears.

"Take the blessings of the elders," said the priest and Virika and the groom went and took the blessings of Rohan and Kavya, while the groom was still covering his face with his floral veil.

They went near Abhay and Abhay hugged her and kissed her crown and said, "happy married life, don't forget your brother is always there for you, come home early, I will be waiting for you, we didn't get time to spend together."

"You forgot to shower blessings on me," said Isha and Abhay rolled his eyes.

Virika broke the hug and went and stood beside the groom, while Isha came and stood in front of Abhay, but he turned his head to the other side.

"If I would have not been wearing this long skirt, I would have been on your back, pulling your hair, it's better you give your blessings," said Isha.

"Stay happy," said Abhay without turning his head and Isha hugged him and started crying.
