Finding Her Identity {The Lost Princess}

Chapter X: Disguise

Rabia POV:

I was sitting on the bed and recalling all the strange memories. My dream, my relations, my resemblance of a brave woman, the attack on me, my mudaris believing Eazims positivity.

My relations? I don't know anyone except my late parents and mudaris. I only remember my mother's face faintly because I was a baby. Do I have more relatives? Was this dream a message to me from The Almighty? Why does the man in my dream have same features as the one I discussed with General Zaheer? I have to find the answers to these questions.

And the only way is to meet King Medhat............... The council.

I have to ask Zayn if I could come with him. I decided to talk to him. I left my room, as I was walking down the hallway, I saw Zayn! He was talking to a soldier so I waited till he was alone.

After the coast was clear I approached him. His facial expression was elated to see me.

"Greetings Rabia. How are you?".

"Alhamdullilah".

He just smiled at me that me my heart tingle but at the very moment I had something else to discuss. I took a deep breath and said,

"Prince Zayn, if you allow, ummm..... Can I please come to the place where the council is being held tomorrow?".

"Umm why do you wanna come?".

"Well I am just curious to learn about things and I would like to explore more areas".

"I am sorry Rabia but I can't allow you. The council is being held at the Eazim Kingdom you know our rivals. My father is really worried as we can't trust anyone there. Even our lives are at stake. We will feel danger everywhere in that place".

"But I will have you by my side right. Plus I will be careful".

He told in a firm voice, "No, I strictly deny it. I don't want you to get hurt or get involved in this. I don't want trouble before you. You have already been hurt because of our kingdoms carelessness".

There was a silence after this conversation. Suddenly he spoke,
"Don't worry Rabia. I will find the people who tried to hurt you and I swear I won't leave them. I was waiting till the council. I have so much to find, my attackers, your attacker".

There was no use. The council was being held at Eazim. He wouldn't allow me for sure. So we bid farewell and left our ways.

But this was my only chance to take my first steps towards finding the past. Well......

If I can't go there as Rabia, then I will go in a disguise.

Zayn POV:

It was night and my heart was racing. It was a big day tomorrow. My father called me in his court to discuss something important. Surely it was related to the council.

I felt really bad denying Rabia but it was for the best. She doesn't need to become a part of trouble. I don't trust the Eazims especially since the attack on me. I will address these problems after the council just as I promised Rabia.

I went to the court and found him sitting on the chair. He looked worried, his hands on his head. Seems like he was frustrated.

"Father, you called me?".

"Yes son, I have to discuss with you about the council".

I hummed in response. And he said,

"Son, we have to be extra careful in Eazim. That place isn't safe for us especially because we are enemies".
