Heart Of Moon [ISHMAN/SHUBISH]

what's wrong, merii jaan

“in a terrible night, the dream of your touch fills my heart”.

Ishan and the king, lakhwinder were alone in the big fort of the king. As shahneel was out to travel along with her mother, keart, shubman was out for some projects.

Ishan was currently sitting in shubman’s room and he just missed his family a lot, he wished for them to be okay. Without knowing a single tear dropped from his eyes as he was sitting in the balcony.

“missing your family?” he heard a voice from behind and just when he turned he spotted the king. His eyes widened in the process of realisation he quickly got up and bow down.

“afternoon k-king..” lakhwinder sat on the chair in the balcony and smirked in realisation, his son, shubman chose ‘this’ boy to be his future partner and look at him, not even 1/3rd of their status.

And to make ishan realise it well, he gesture ishan to sit on the floor of the balcony. Ishan’s eyes produced tears in seconds. He slowly sat down, kneeling infront of the cruel king.

Ishan knew about king’s intention he wanted ishan to realise where he belongs. He was left broken by the mean self of these people.

Lakhwinder threw some photos of a girl on ishan’s face who flinched, he slowly picked the pictures from the floor and looked at them, it was a picture of a girl. “she’s going to be shubman’s wife” ishan’s eyes widened as the king said these words

“w-what” ishan felt his heart clenching, ishan loved shubman so much and knowing that he won't be able to marry shubman just breaks his heart. “and...shubman is my son at the end of the day he has to listen to me you’re just some mistake of his and as a father i’m going fix this mistake of his.” ishan looked at king with tears filled in his eyes.

“i-i love him and he loves me i’m not a mistake, king!” ishan said with fire in his eyes and lakhwinder’s anger reached his head “oh really, if you really love him why don’t you think about what’s going to benifit him in the future? I mean if you marry him he will have to face many things, because of you being a low-cast and nothing, your and shubman’s compatibility is nothing” ishan couldn't help but cry and at the end, it’s true even if it’s cruel.

Lakhwinder sat up from the chair and began walking towards the exit door. “i’ll make sure to kick you out of shubman’s life before it’s too late” the king said in his fiery tone and left the room.

Shubman entered in his fort. He was indeed tired after the restless days of work but he surely smiled after knowing that now he’ll get to meet ishan, the love of his life.

He slowly entered inside his room, it was midnight and he expected ishan to be asleep but he frowned when he saw ishan sitting in the balcony.

“ish...” he politely called ishan out, who looked back. The sight of ishan made shubman feel sad. Ishan’s pretty eyes were red and puffy, his cheeks stained with tears.

Ishan looked at shubman and he tried his best not to cry. “y-you’re back, prince?” ishan said, his voice was dry like he cried for hours. Shubman’s heart was filled with worry as he slowly went to ishan and knelt down.

He cupped ishan’s face and kissed his eyes and the pretty mole on ishan’s neck “what’s wrong, merii jaan?” (my life). Ishan bite his lips to control his tears and shook his head.

He wanted to tell shubman every detail about what the king said but he did not knew where to start. He knew shubman was tired from the preparations as he’s about to become the king in next few months. And he did not wanted to trouble shubman.
