Alia's POV

"Whose that lady?" I asked Aqil who looked at her and rolled his eyes towards me.

"Thats Shameera. Princess of Al-Jabeel. She is 22 years old and she is just a spoilt bi-, nope brat. She is stubborn and always gets what she wants. Look at her screaming at the poor attender! What kind of attitude is this?Mommy I want this chamber; Mommy i want that chamber"he mimickedher.

I laughed out loud enough for the attender to stop and turn around. "Lady, this way to your chamber and Sir this way to yours" the attender voiced out politely. It was indeed true. There was a bridge that was the border that separated the males'and females' chambers.

We both parted our ways and I walked towards my chamber. On the way, another lady of around my age was peeking out of her chamber door.

"Assalamualaikum, im Kalsom, princess of Al-Nooh" she said. In return i said my salaam and strode to the next empty chamber right next to hers. I entered the chamber while dragging my luggage behind me.

The chamber was marvelous. The walls of the chamber was designed with intricate mughal patterns. The bed was high enough for me to dangle my long legs off the bed. The quilt was soft and cozy by the mere touch of it. The windows were big enough for sunlight to penetrate. Every single cloth was in the colour of gold and maroon, lifting the mughal theme.

I rested my bum on the soft mattress and took of my hijab. It was the best feeling in the entire world; taking out the hijab after a long and tiring day. I let my bun loose and my hair dropped to my sides. I went to the toilet to freshen up and took whudhu.

Time check: 1310h. The azan for the lohor prayer was heard. Mashallah! The azan was very pleasing to hear. I quickly unpacked my things and took out my long jilbab and mini musolla. I looked at the ceiling and around the chamber,hoping to find the kiblat sign. It was nowhere to be seen.

"Oh Allah where's the kiblat? I really need to pray!"i started to panic. I searched for the sign and it wasnt there. I quickly put on my hijab and went out of the chamber to seek for help. To my right, it was the bridge that lead to the males' chamber. To my left, it was a long hallway. In front of me, was the main linkage to all the other parts of the mansion. "Should i ask Kalsom? What if she isnt there? Oh Allah!" I cried.

Gathering courage, i decided to look for any attender that could answer my plea. Just then a figure just walked past the hallway. I quickly ran towards the hallway without thinking twice. All I wanted was, a place to pray my lohor prayer.

Azad's POV

"Azad! What are you doing here?!" Bhabi screamed.

I turned towards her direction and looked at her.

"You are supposed to be ready, Azad! But you are here fighting with Mumbad! Go and get changed before your abba comes!"bhabi nagged and chase me out of the training ground. Though our fight was ended abruptly by bhabi, i got the victory.

I paced my way through the crowd, putting up a fake smile whenever i saw the higher officials or those who came to ask me for marriage.

"Oh my Azad! You are here! Do you know i was looking for you everywhere? And by the way, you should really dismiss all your servants here. I asked for a chamber that was nearer to your room, but they refused. If they dont listen to me now, how about tomorrow, if i were to be your wife? I really think you should do something about them..." Shameerah continued.

Shameerah was abba's closest friend's daughter. Ever since her family shifted here, they would occassionally meet us every now and then. And Shameerah being the only daughter, was a spoilt brat. She would tend to find ways to eventually put me around her legs, making me fall for her. But I, would never ever fall for any girl.

"If you dont like your chamber, you can sleep in mine and i would sleep with someone else. Is that okay or must i do something else for you? Those servants whom you are referring are working here for decades. Just because they didnt offer what you asked for, i cant throw them out instantly. Im letting you go, just because you are abba's friend's daughter and nothing else" i cautioned and strode off.

Came early in the morning, just to piss me off.

I walked towards the empty hallway, which was on the way to room. Just then, i saw figure running towards that hallway. Who would eventually go to an empty hallway? Curiousity killed me and i followed that figure.
