Nadhya saw Mina was the one with whom she bumped into. Nadhya again got up and left to her chamber. She told Mina "call Bapu sa, maa sa, dadi sa everyone". Mina nodded and left to called them. After few minutes everyone gathered. They knew what gonna happened.
"Bapu sa apne hume zinda marne ka accha intezaam kiya hai" Nadhya cried. "Maa sa, do you know who is my fiance Sultan Rehaan Khan" Nadhya told while clapping. Everyone was sitting silently. "Soon I will be his one of wives" Nadhya cried. "Nahi nahi Nadhya aap galat samaj rehi hai, Sultan abhi kuware hai and Voh ek hi vivaah karna chahte hai aur voh bhi aapse" (No, nadhya you are thinking wrong, he wants to marry you only) prataap singh explained.
"Bapu sa, please don't do this to me. But Don't marry me to him. I can't live" Nadhya cried while kneeling in front her father. "Nadhya!!!! You know that Rajput princesses didn't kneel in front of anyone" Prataap singh scolded. "Par bapu Sa hume aapse shama chahte hai hum yeh vivaah nahi karege" Nadhya said getting up. "Toh thik hai!!! Ho jaane dijiye tabaah Ajmer ko. Apko kya hi farak padega Rajkumari" (Ok fine!!! Let Ajmer get destroyed. After all why do you care)
"Aapke Vivaah se Ajmer me aman aur shanti bani rehe gi.. Yeh Ajmer k vaasi khushaal jindagi jiyege kinto aapko agar vivaah nahi karna toh aapki marji" (There will be peace in Ajmer if you marry him... People will give prosperous life but if you don't want to marry then up to you) prataap singh announced. He left aggressively.
Nadhya hugged her Mother and cried. "Lado, Hume inn siyashti mamlo ka pta nahi par kinto aapke Bapu Sa par bahut sankant hai agar abhi unhone iss vivaah ko mna kiya toh Sultan unhe mritu dand de dege aur agar nahi toh unki badnaami hogi ki voh apni jubaan dekar badal gye. Toh abh aap ka faisla sab mayne rakhta hai Nadhya" (Dear, I don't know about these political matters but You dad has problem lingering around him, if he denied this proposal Sultan will sentence him to death and if not then your bapu sa got insulated for not to keep his promise, now decision is up to you Nadhya)
Maayawati explained and left the room."Ekaant!!" Nadhya yelled. Every attendee left. Nadhya cried out her heart. Nadhya decided to marry Sultan because she can't let her father insulted. She called Mina. "Mina, Bapu Sa se keh dijiye hum iss vivaah k liye raazi hai" (Mina, tell dad I'm ready to marry)
Nadhya told weakly. Mina nodded and left.Mina went to Raja Pratap Singh. Mina bowed. "Raja ji, Rajkumari ne sandesha bheja ki voh yeh vivah k liye raazi hai" Mina said. Raja pratap singh got happy. Mina bowed and left. Raja pratap singh went to Sultan's chamber. A attendee went to sultan "sultan, aapse Raja pratap singh milne aaye hai" (Sultan, raja pratap is here to meet you).
Sultan nodded. Raja pratap came inside. "Sultan hum asha karte hai ki aapko koi takleef nahi ho rehi hai yaha" (Sultan, I hope nothing is troubling you)Pratap Singh asked. "Absolutely not" Sultan replied. "I want to ask because when to fix marriage date" Pratap singh asked. "Raja sahab, Hum jitni jaldi ho sakta hai utni jaldi vivah karna chahe ge kyuki nikaah humne Agra karne ka socha hai" Sultan replied. "Jesa aap kehe Sultan" Pratap singh agreed to his words.In evening. Nadhya was standing in balcony. She told Mina to not to disturb her or not let anyone do. She was standing and looking at Birds. She saw Rehaan and her father having her dinner. When attendee came to them and bowed. "Maharaj, maharani ne aapko sendesh bhej hai ki Rajkumari Sa, bhojan nahi kar rehi hai subah se" (King, Queen sent you message that princess wasn't eating anything since morning). Attendee bowed and left. Pratap Singh Sighed. He continued to eat. "Princess Nadhya looks like pampered brat, if we do anything like this, my father gonna beat me" Rehaan told with chuckle. Pratap Singh chuckled too.
After Dinner Pratap Singh went to Nadhya. "Nadhya, abh yeh kya hai" (Nadhya, what is this). "Bapu sa, hum thak gye hai hum kal kha lenge abhi Hume vishraam karne dijiye" (Dad, I'm tired. I'll eat tomorrow, for now let me have some rest) nadhya told weakly. Pratap Singh agreed and left. Few minutes later. Nadhya fixes her veil on head and went out towards Rehaan's room. She went inside his room and waiting for him because he wasn't in his room.
Sultan was going to his room when a Attendee told "sultan, Rajkumari Nadhya aap ka intezaar kar rehi hai andar" (Sultan, princess nadhya is waiting for you inside). Sultan nodded and ask every attendee to leave. Rehaan went inside. Nadhya stand up. "Please have a seat, Shehzadi" Rehaan said while talking a seat. "Hum aapse vivah k liye tyaar hai" (I'm ready to marry you) Nadhya told. "Hume aapke abba jaan bataya" (My father told me) Rehaan replied. "Kinto hamari kuch sharat hai jo aapko man ni hi hogi" (I have some conditions that you have to agreed to it) Nadhya ordered. Rehaan chuckled "aap darkhast kar rehi hai ya hukum" (Are you requesting or ordering me). "Kuch v samaj lijiye" (Think whatever) Nadhya told. "Pehli sharat aap doosra vivah nahi karege" (First condition, you'll not remarry). "Doosri sharat, Hum apna dharam nahi badlege aur hum apne bhagwaan ji bhi Agra leke jayege" Nadhya told. Rehaan's expression was unreadable. "Agar hum apki sab sharat inkaar karde toh" (What if I reject your condition) Rehaan said. Nadhya looked at him disappointed. "Par hum aesa karege nahi kyuki Hume apki sharat manjoor hai" (But, I'll not reject it because I accept your conditions) Rehaan announced. Nadhya smiled widely. Nadhya got up and ready to go. "Par, hum aapse kuch kehna chate hai" (But I want to tell you something).
"Aapne ek sharat barbaad kardi apni, kyuki hum ek hi nikaah padege aur voh bhi sirf aapke saath. Aap hi hamari pehli aur aakhri begum hogi, Shehzaadi Nadhya" (You ruined one condition. Because I gonna marry only once and that too with you, you will be my First and last wife, Princess Nadhya) Rehaan assured her. Nadhya felt butterflies in her stomach. "Shubh ratri Sultan" (Good night, Sultan) Nadhya greeted and immediately left. Rehaan smiled looking at her disappearing figure. "Aap sach me bahut bahadur hai Nadhya" (You are really brave Nadhya) Rehaan mumbled.To be continue...
