Noor's  POV,

The fort became smaller, smaller and became microscopic .It was so far away that my eyes could not catch the glimpse of it anymore. All my childhood memories flashed in front of me. I could not stop myself from sobbing. Alisha had surely accompanied me to be my maid in the new place too but the attachment I had with my palace is something which never can be brought back or renewed in my memories , however of a better palace you provide me with. The hot air was hitting my wet face through the small gaps in between the two purdahs of the palki.

The weather was slowly turning cooler as we kept on leaving Afghan. The drop in temperature made me cry even more . I kept crying until the tears stopped coming. I was sitting with a blank expression in the palki. Despite the fun and laughter going on in my surroundings I felt alone. Very alone .So alone that I felt as if no body was there for me and all doors towards my escape was closed. His sinister expression kept on flashing my inner mind and tears rolled down my face without my knowledge. I wanted to be strong and face the circumstances but the environment and the fear of being alone in a foreign place was making me feel weak. So weak that ...I did not know how to express it. The only thing that came to my mind was this quote my Abbujaan once said to me-

जब तकदीर से मोहब्बत करो,
तो दर्द ही मिलता है,
इसीलिए तो हम दर्द को ही,
किस्मत कहते हैं..!!

When you fall in love with destiny, The only thing you get in return is pain, That is the reason why I believe that  pain is my destiny.

The soldiers and the maids were all rejoicing our marriage but, I felt as if they were laughing at me, my foolishness and my existence. I should not have may be lived.I did not realise when i drifted into deep sleep. A sudden shake woke me up. I was feeling weak, I was hungry and I felt homesick and dirty.I was nighttime. "We will be setting up our camps here and resume our journey early again in the morning" his deep loud voice boomed through the forest. Alisha called me out and I was standing somewhere in the middle of the forest somewhere far away from Afghan. The mere thought of it brought tears to my eyes but I didn't let them fall. He was standing  a few feet away from me instructing something to the servants. Suddenly he turned and looked at me with a hard gaze. His face showed no emotion except his stern gaze His gaze suddenly softened looking at me and I unconsciously wiped away the tear marks from my cheeks. He broke our eye contact and walked away."Rajkumari, you should change and take rest .Let me escort you to your tent".I followed her and we entered the biggest and the brightest tent in the whole platoon. I changed into a light white lehenga and opened all my heavy jewellery except the bangles ,Kamarbhandh and anklets.

I ate a simple meal of Kaunda Kachauri,Gatte ro Saag,Ker Sangri and Keri achhar.
I was felling damn tired,my eyes were burning and th only thing that was calling me was the bed.I didn't take much time to fall asleep.Everything slowly went silent around me and I never had a better sleep ever.I didn't want to sleep but I did.Somethung felt off.I am always able to hear the surroundings when I sleep but this time it was as if I was falling unconscious instead of falling asleep.

I kept trying to move and trying not to close my eyes.I was sure I was drugged.The food,the palki,the tears,the wedding,the food,the wedding everything was swirling inside my brain in a loop.

SPLASHhhh....
U woke up with a start.Everything cleared around me except the feeling to vomit.
"Aapki itni himmat ki aap mere khaat mein so rahen hai.Aap mere tambu ke andar apna pair rakh bhi kaise sakten hain,Achha to amne hamari suhaagraat ko atu Sundar ki kalpana ki thi.Ha ha!Aap meri patni hi saktein hain par hum aapke pati kisi bhi disha se nahin kehlate"
("How dare you sleep on my bed and how the hell did you even step inside my tent.Wait did you imagine a beautifully consummated marriage night of ours that is why you came into my tent and slept on my bed?Ha Ha..You can be my wife but I am not your husband. Now get off my bed").

I was soaking wet with tears threatening to fall of my eyes.I could not care less about my surroundings or appearance.I felt a sharp but tight jerk on my arm and before I could even understand about what was happening with me and what his words meant and how this was his tent,I was thrown on to the cold ,damp forest ground .ANIMAL!
I was boiling with anger.I wanted to scratch his face and cut his throat so badly but right now my body was not allowing me right now.I angrily got up from the floor and moved towards Alisha's room.She was not in her bed and I slumped in two her not so soft bed but the tiredness got the best of me and I slept.Soundly.I could feel the tears rolling down my eyes.I had never been disrespected and humiliated in my life like he that animal did.

The sun was up and I could hear the chirping of the birds but the atmosphere was eerily dense and silent.I climbed out the bed to see Alisha sleeping on the cold ground.A pang of guilt flowed through me.I walked out of the tent only to be shocked.My eyes widened and I gasped.There was blood everywhere A severed hand was just in front of my legs.I could not control myself anymore.A lump formed in my throught and I vomited.I was feeling very cold and warmness was emanating from my skin before I could register anything else,I slumped down unconscious.
Princessssss!!
