Cursed by Destiny

Chapter 16 - The wound..

"How? How did you survive? No! This can't be true. What no go away! Don't come near me. I will kill you." the old lady was startled to see Dhara alive.

"You really thought I would let you go after you spoiled my hairs and clothes like this? And no you cannot kill me because I'm the one who will do that. Because of you so many devdoots died. You have hurt a lot of people and now I'm going to end this completely." Dhara said with anger in her eyes.

"No please! Don't kill me. I had no choice but to do this. I will do whatever you want me to do.

"Are you sure?" Dhara smirked.

"Yes! Yes. I will do whatever you want me to do. I promise." The demon said and came to her knees as a sign of respect towards her new master.

"Okay! Then answer my questions first."

"What questions?"

"Those creatures inside, they were the children of Vritra, right?"

"Yes!"

By now the old lady and realised that Dhara was not a normal warrior. She was much more than that and the same goes with Kaal.

"Will Asthadhatu hurt Kaal?"

"Yes it will! And he should be dead by now if he has it inside his body."

"He cannot die. I won't let him die. I will let you go if you do my work."

"What work?" The demon asked.

"You'll know."

"Okay" she stopped for a second "Master"

Kaal

I woke up and found myself in the room I and Dhara were in. It was at that moment that it clicked me that Dhara was nowhere in sight. I got up from the bed with a jerk only to fall down back again.

I tried to get up again and walked a few steps and stumbled again. But before I could fall down a hand came to my rescue.

"What are you doing? Go and rest."

A sigh of relief left my mouth as soon as I heard that voice.

"I woke up and didn't find you so I thought -"

Before I could finish my sentence Dhara cut me off and started speaking herself.

"I know I know! You thought Dhara is immature and most probably in trouble and needs your assistance. My -" She took a pause, came near me and pulled my cheeks "dear Kaal as you can see I'm standing in front of you in one piece and talking to you. So you can go and rest now. She left my cheeks,turned around,and was about to say something else.

"Kaal you nee-"

Before she could finish her sentence I pulled her back to me. Her back was facing my chest with her hand behind her back and off course in my control.

"What are you doing?"

I shushed her and she slowly turned her head sideways so that she could get a better view of what was happening. Her breathing was rough.

"You're hurt" I finally spoke.

Dhara turned her head a little further and bit her lip when she saw blood on her shoulder.

"Oh! I didn't notice it. I have no time right now I will put some herbs on it a bit later."

"No!" With this I made her sit on the bed.

"Where are the medicines?"

"Kaal it's okay. I will do it later."

"Where are the medicines?" I asked again.

"In that bag." She replied pointing towards the bag on the other side of the bed.

"Wait here!"

I then went and brought her the bag. She took out the herbs from it and applied it on the wound. She then took out two pills and handed me one of those.

"Eat it!" She said swallowing the pill.

"Why?"

"It will heal any wound that you have on your body."

"Oh. Okay"

"Where were you?"

"I was dealing with only remaining person"

"So what happened?"

"You'll know"
