DESTINED TO DEATH

RANI SA

"This is your room Rani sa" Sanchi opened the doors and walked inside into a beautifully golden room adorned with a huge Chandelier and also the the satin curtains parting the room into bedroom and also the living room.

Vrushali's gaze fell on the pictures on the wall and she walked towards the wall "Who are they?"

"Oh! They are Raja Saab's parents, Hukum sa and Rani sa. They passed away in an accident" Sanchi replied.

Vrushali looked at the couple so in love. Whoever captured this must be also inspired by their love. She thought about her own parents whom she doesn't remember at all but not to worry she has her husband now.

'I will always be by his side, I promise!" Vrushali promised her in-laws and was about to touch the frame but was pinned to the wall beside the frames.

She gasped as she looked at her angry husband who tightened his grip on her wrist "What the hell are you doing in my room?"

"You mean our room!" Vrushali corrected.

Karn clenched his jaw and pinned her hand to the wall "Whatever you are here to do, I won't let that happen".

She rolled her eyes and rounded her arm around his neck and pulled his face down to her face "I'm only here for you and I will do whatever I want if it comes to you".

They both looked into each other's eyes challenging and were startled out when they heard Sanchi "I didn't see anything...I didn't see anything".

He let her go and took a step back from her "Why did you bring her here?"

"R..Raja Saab...she's your wife so she'll stay in your room only right" Sanchi stuttered.

Vrushali sighed "See! Sanchi knows where I should stay and here you are questioning what I'm doing here. Not fair penimiti" shaking her head.

He glared at her as another servant knocked before walking in with heavy bags followed by two other servants making Karn question "What is this?"

"Rajamata sent the clothes for Rani sa, Raja Saab" One of the servants politely replied.

"Rani sa! Please get ready for the pooja downstairs. Everyone is waiting for you" One of the servants informed her before everyone left the couple alone.

"These many clothes? Even if I don't repeat them it'll take atleast an year to wear all of them" saying Vrushali went through few bags and picked one.

"Don't take all these for granted. Your time here is very short! Once I find out what your motive behind all this is... I'll kill you myself" Karn threatened.

Vrushali looked at him scared "Oops! You almost scared me" and laughed sarcastically.

"Do you think I'm joking?" Karn gritted his teeth.

Vrushali walked to him standing closer "Nah! But I love it when you just get angry and threaten people" and slowly played with his shirt button "How about you help me bath?"

He narrowed his eyes and walked forward making her walk backward and suddenly he pushed her back "Get ready" before walking out as she chuckled closing the bathroom door.

Everyone in the palace gathered for the pooja for Durga ma when they heard the anklets and turned around to see Vrushali walking towards them in a red saree looking beautiful and a devi herself. Karn blinked his eyes looking her up and down as she smiled at him and directly walked to Rajamata bending down and touching her feet "May god bless you child with long life with your husband".

Karn sighed in frustration as Vrushali stood up grinning and stood beside her husband "Of course I'll live a long life with my husband Rajamata! That's the reason I was born in the first place".

Nobody understood what she said but just concluded that she was so in love with their Raja Saab. Many were astonished at her openness in confessing her love so openly, while some were jealous that she got a hot hunk husband like Karn while others pitied her since Karn doesn't care about her and is trying to send her away.

Karn walked forward holding the aarati when Rajamata insisted "Vrushali! Go do aarati with your husband".

Karn glared at Rajmata who stood her ground as Vrushali walked forward and stood beside her husband holding his hand as he did the aarati to Durga ma's idol ringing the bell. They showed the aarati to everyone who took the blessings of Durga ma.

"Raja Saab! Apply sindhur in Rani sa's hairline" Deewan ji forwarded the sindhur box forward.

Vrushali looked at the sindhur and then him with turmoil which wasn't missed by Karn. He took a pinch of sindhur and moved his hand towards her hairline making her gulp as he smirked at her. Understanding that he wants her to stop him she did the only thing which could save her. Her eyes rolled back into her head as she fell forward on him making him catch her before she could fall down but in that process the sindhur from Karn's fingers rubbed against her hairline making the bells in the pooja ring because of the heavy breeze which made the curtains fly too.
