The Barbaric Proposition {Royal Engagement Series 1}

10. Handling The Little Affair

Two days later at the Hawai Mahal...

At this moment, Samrat and few of his ministers were enjoying time with little talks and discussion about random topics. The Hawai Mahal was located near the Imperial court. Once in a week this kind of meeting was arranged and the notable ministers would join to entertain Samrat in his leisure time. The sevaks in the Hawai Mahal was busy serving drinks while Manik sat on the high chair.

Birbhrat looked at Manik who seemed little drunk. The wines served in the palace was the best one which were made with care. But these wines has strong taste and effect. He smiled inwardly and nodded at the sevak standing at side to serve the Samrat another glass. The tall looking sevak noticing the indication immediately poured another glass of wine.

Birbhrat smiled and said, "Samrat these days the court matter is getting tight. I can see that you are busy with the loaded work in the study. As your loyal servant, we all ministers are worried about your health"

Himmat also nodded his head in agreement, "yes, Prime Minister is right Samrat. We though wanted to ease your tension but we are not qualified enough for that. Please take care of your health, your health is the most precious one"

Other ministers also joined the talk. Manik listened to their words and smirked. He took a sip of his wine before looking at them."Since my dear ministers are so concerned about my health I really appreciate your kind intention. You all are here today so if you have gotten any idea of what should be done to relieve my stress then please enlighten me too. I would like to listen"

Hearing the positive response Birbhrat felt his plan going well. He let out a little cough before putting a smile on his face, "Samrat, to relieve stress from your body, you can spend more time with your wives. It's a wife's duty to help her husband"

Manik looked at him, "oh is it?" Suddenly he thought of a woman looking cold and attractive. Now hearing the idea of his minister he started to wonder would that woman really help him? Though she was his wife lawfully but that was nothing but a treaty between them. He never thought of going further than that. But she was also the most attractive woman he had seen till now, so he was very much with the impression of how would she taste like. Thinking this the corner of his lips curled into a smirk.

"Is there any other way?" He asked again.

Birbhrat nodded, "Samrat another way is very simple. It's just a little entertainment to enjoy, this way it will help you to be little distracted from your work load. I heard that there's a skillful dance group in the capital. If Samrat want to see then I will arrange for it"

Manik wave his hand, "then let's see Prime Minister"

Birbhrat nodded. He asked his sevak to call the dance group. The arrangements were done so fast and in a small amount of time the dance group were called in the palace. A woman walked forward with a veil over her head. She was wearing a dancing clothes and has an attractive body. Behind her was two more woman and few man holding instruments. She looked like a leader and bowed deeply infront of Samrat.

"Pranam Samrat, my name is Vehila and I am honoured to get this chance to perform infront of you today. Thank you for this" Vehila introduced herself. Her voice was sexy which caught the attention of all the ministers except Birbhrat who looked at her with some unknown expression.

"Then start the show" Manik said indifferently.

Vehila who was used to the attention of men suddenly frowned at the indifferent attitude. The Samrat was really a handsome man. He looked powerful and dominating, the kind of type she prefers more in man. There's not a man she met who never charmed by her beauty. She smiled and nodded. She indicated her followers to start before removing her veil. When her face was revealed, the present ministers gasped. She was an enchanting woman, like Apsara in the legend. They couldn't take their eyes off her.
