ADITI ISHAN:Unexpected Love

5 ~The Anonymous Beauty~

Ishan's POV

It was an inky night and I was walking through the forest to reach my secret place....and a sudden rustling of leaves caught my attention I quickly hid behind a massive tree and placed my hand ready to open my sword....That was the moment I witnessed the wonder of all worlds.....It was her.A girl dressed in rags but looking so elegant...she was rescuing a tender young baby bird from the tangles of the branch....her fingers gently convincing the leaflets to let go of the lovely little life....the way she caressed the bird by gentle strokes on its crown and finally she kissed the bird goodbye and flew it into the air....The sweet and innocent smile she had on her face was giving me a deep kind of pleasure...I had no idea why I was standing there and watching her all through.

......The night was dark but failed to compete with her bright.The Moon was bright but has fallen short in front of her light.

That was the first time I saw her.She probably didn't even notice me but I possibly could never forget that momemt.I didn't know who she was and from which angelic world she has come down.The way she was dressed clearly indicated that she was a commoner.For some reason I felt that she is very close and well acquainted to my heart.....

That night has given me something worthy of a lifetime.I cherish that moment a lot.Later I saw her many times talking to many people as if it was her duty to enquire things.I wanted to encounter her but I didn't know if I would be able to stand her straight.She was too much for me to handle.She has that kind of elegance and spark in her that no Royal Princess I have ever met possessed.

Then on one fine evening,I was standing on a rock on the riverbed to look at the beauty of the nature but what I found there was much more beautiful and capturing than I expected......

I heard her speaking and it took me a while to gather myself and make sure that....yes,she is indeed talking to MEEE...I encountered her but I completely lost my senses as soon as she started talking to me....I was not able to acknowledge the new version of me when I was talking to her....she brought out the other side of mine,that I didn't know was residing within me....

I was on cloud nine when I finally was able to talk to the beauty I had been admiring for a while now.It was too overwhelming......She was just as I expected her to be.She is beautiful in and out.

We started to meet more often and I didn't know the reason behind it...I probably thought it was destiny that was drawing us closer.

Her pure thoughts,her sparkling smiles,her precious presence,her tempting talks,her divine looks and endeavors were all enchanting me and hunting me all through my days and nights.

Having been with her for quite some days now,I am able to figure out that she has some soft corner towards me as well.I guess she enjoyed our meetings as much as I did.I finally made up my mind that she is the only one who deserves a place in my heart irrespective of her identity.What if she is not a Princess,I will make her the Queen of my heart.I didn't know what these feelings are...but the one thing I know now is that I want to be the reason of her smile....and the king of her heart.

I plan to reveal her my identity at the earliest possible..since it would be too much for her to digest once I claim her after conquering the Parvan kingdom....I didn't know how to start the topic and having lost in these thoughts I accidentally reached the Queen's Palace...luckily there was no one around in the corridor so I sneaked into the garden and was almost about to leave when two ladies entered from the opposite side.I had to hide behind a tree and had no option than to eavesdrop.One of them seemed to the Queen and the other one was....was it her??

Yes,it was her.I saw her there where she was least expected to be seen...and I was wondering as to what task might have brought her here.....and then I heard the royal lady say.."Aditi,what's wrong dear?Your father is an efficient ruler.You do know that right??Why do you still keep going for these undercover trips?Should I keep reminding you that you are Princess of Parvan kingdom and of marriageable age?and not any undercover officer......."

So,she is Princess Aditi Parvan,daughter of my rival,not to mention..

I decided to reveal her my identity once I conquered the Parvans and make her mine.....But before I could do that she has choked me with a shock regarding her identity.....and I made a fool of myself all these days...being concerned about her feelings all the while...as to how she would react to my disclosure.....
