🔱THE FEMALE KNIGHT🔱[COMPLETED)✔

The Big Plan

Azad POV

"The dance is this Saturday and today is Wednesday. Alia you have to get close to them. On Saturday, Mairah, Faryal and Shameerah would perform first. Then, it would be your turn. After you finished your performance, you have to change your dress right? In that gap, Aisha would cook up something, like example, stab my aunt. Dont worry, we can just apply her blood red lip gloss on my aunt" i said.

"So whats that got to do with me getting close to them?" Alia asked tapping her head with a pen. Oh, she looked damn cute. Even though she was looking at me, i shifted my gaze away from her.

"Simple. The people who know that you arent there, are them. Shameerah wouldnt probably bother about you as she would be eyeing on me. So, when you come back during or even before Kalsom's dance, they sure would suspect you and in order for that to happen you have to act a bit suspicious. Later if they ask you, just reply that you went to change your dress. They would probably wont ask about it anymore. And theres, when Aisha plays a part. She would be coming up to you to talk to you freqently in front of them after the performances and all. And thats when you would have to indirectly tell them that Aisha is the worm for your big catch. They should have understood by then. And then they should plan to kill us with the help of yours and thats when we round th-"i was interrupted.

"Azad, what if they dont suspect me or dont ask me? And they know that only two of them are rivals and theres no way for a third one!I feel its not going to work' Alia said blantly.

"Alia, im sure you can. You can fake it till you make it. I hope you didnt forget the conversation in the library. You conversed to me as if you were a real princess who was willing to be the Rani. We are all relying on you. Once you can convince them that you are also an intruder, the plan would be perfect. And remember they only know that they both are the intruders but there might be a chance to have more. You can do it Alia" i said and nearly reached for hand. However, she quickly handed over me a pillow instead.

"Im convinced, i must say. We need to let the others know about this. They should also cooperate" Aqil said getting up from his seat and stretched his muscles.

"Alright then, but Azad, can we not have Mumbad? I feel unsafe when he is around.." Alia trailed off. I simply nodded in approval.

"Well then,thats for the night folks and Alia you have to start practising for dance which you are horrendous at it" Aqil said throwing his pillow back at Alia. She dodged it and it hit me. I in return threw at Alia and it hit her.

"Ouch! That was hard man and i dont want to dance. Its soo weird. Its solo at the same moment. Haizz. Why cant there be events like sword fighting or horse riding?" Alia said adjusting her hijab that was slightly shifted to one side.

"Thats only for males. Not the females and you really amaze me. You are doing things that are not typical for a woman to do. Fighting, invovling in risks, being daring, riding horses and all. Not all woman does that. And especially in this mansion, no one does that even though we have the facilities" i said.

Alia looked at me in bewilderment. "Did you just say horse riding? Oh my i really want to horse ride! Can i do it here?" Alia pleaded.

"I guess not. Everyone would suspect you and the knights would look at you in a suspicious way. So dont Alia. Try to behave like girl, try to be femine. You have to learn from Aisha!" Aqil said laughing. Alia threw the pillow at him, making it hit his abdomen. I laughed out heartly. "So does Aqil likes Aisha?" I asked. Aqil did not reply and stayed still.

"Ermm..okay..Azad, can you organise a separate meeting with Raja, your aunt and Aisha. I do not want your thaatha and thaathi to be hearing this. They might be shocked" Alia said standing up and walked towards the door.

"Alia! I will sent all your weapons back. Reason, if you become friends with Faryal and Mairah, you can eventually show off your unique weapons you have. That would make them believe in you more" i said crossing my arms over my chest. I saw Alia's eyes moving from my face to my arms. Woah! In reply she nodded and left.

I left Aqil's chamber and returned back to my room. I shall have the meeting with my father and aunt tomorrow instead.

Alia's POV

I really didnt expect Azad to trust and rely on me soo much. He had given such a huge and risky task. Once Faryal and Mairah knows what we have planned, we are surely doomed. Though i was slightly impressed with Azad's quick thinking and his plan, there was still fear in me. I was sent here to protect them. Not to join with the intruders.

I removed my hijiab once i reached my chamber and went to sleep. Nothing in the world was better than sleep!
