The Obsession

chapter 16

Ranvijay's face turned red with rage as he listened to the secret officers' report. "We enquiried the civilians and there a poor begger woman ,a guesthouse keeper they claim to see a woman with such features she was seen with three men?Laughing and talking as she acquainted with them."Secret offer explained. Ranvijay thundered, his fists clenched at his sides.

He paced back and forth in the chamber, his mind racing with jealousy and insecurity. He couldn't bear the thought of Maanvika with other men, laughing and smiling at them.

He stopped pacing and turned to the officers. "Find out more," he snarled.
Ranvijay's mind raced with a new strategy. "Those three men, they must be important to her,"He thought his memory raced back to past memory of her  how she had male companion screaming her name in forest that night too.

Back then she called them brother. They must be more than just friends, perhaps they're family or loyal allies. If I can get to them, I'll finally have a lead on her whereabouts.

He shifted his strategy, focusing on tracking down the three men who had been by Maanvika's side throughout the years. "They must be the key to finding her," he thought.

"I need you to investigate these three men," he ordered, his eyes narrowing with determination. "Find out who they are, what they do, and most importantly, what their relationship is to Maanvi."

Secret officers bowed, their eyes gleaming with understanding. "We will find out,your Majesty?"

"We need to track down the men who were with her at the guesthouse,"Secret officers said. "The workers there must have seen them, and we can use their descriptions to create sketches and locate them."Ranvijay said.

"Dispatched more agents to the guesthouse, instructing them to investigate the workers and gather as much information as possible about the men's appearances" Ranvijay emphasized. "Height, weight, hair color, scars, tattoos every detail is crucial."

Officer said "And also ,Your Majesty not many people seen her, the guesthouse keeper happpen to see her when she was eating with those men her face were covered throughly otherwise."

"They maybe a group of wanderer, they are travelers?this side of her life give a idea she maybe a daughter of a merchant or commoner or perhaps an orphan?" Officers paced his mind racing with identifying Maanvika.

Ranvijay turned to the officer"Find out more about her travels," he commanded. "Where has she been Seen? Her home? Every detail is crucial."

Officer bowed and departed, leaving Ranvijay to his thoughts. He couldn't shake the feeling that Maanvika must have hard life, he laid on his bed thinking."So What if she wasn't born into royalty, she is still destined to be queen," he thought.

"I'll make sure she lives a life of luxury and comfort, no matter what her background maybe even if she is orphan .I will be her family ,Maanvi I've seen you in the simplest of clothes, from the forest to our recent encounter. But even in those humble garments, you shone like a star."

"Like every woman desires beautiful clothes and adornments.I promise to shower you with the finest quality of clothes and jewelry."

Ranvijay thought to himself "Maanvi has maybe had a hard life, struggling to survive as commoner.But now, I will give her many servants they will cater to her every whim, and she won't have to lift a finger. She'll only need to give orders, and they'll be fulfilled."

"I'll give her the best palace in the land, with the finest furnishings and the most beautiful gardens. Only She'll have the authority to manage this palace as Queen,which authority only Queen Dowager have right now and no other woman in harem can dream of."
