Raj- princess......she flinched in fear but then remembered his voice she turned in his direction and ran in his embrace and hugged him tightly he took reciprocated the hug, she was crying loudly because of fear soon she limped in his arms he covered her properly and ask the soilders to make tent there.
He laid her properly and came out the tent .

Naksh- they kill them, that's why Maya say on my place hey Krishna I again killed someone how can I kill her, I need to see her........ saying that she was about to run but he held her hands .

Raj- calm down you're not in your sense........but she wasn't paying him heed, he hugged her tightly after crying for sometime she slept in his arms. He made her sleep on bed properly and tried to leave from there but she clutched his palm tightly in her.

Naksh- don't go I'm scared.......she murmured in her sleep, he caressed her head for sometime and slept beside her.
