Azad POV
I was walking towards the stable,wanting to ride on Zaki badly. He was my best friend, my best mate and my best partner.
"Hey Azad! How are you?"came a familiar voice behind me. It was Alia, who was wearing a red and cream top and normal pants. Damn! My heart skipped a beat and the background music came playing again.
"Im fine...How is your...?" I asked gesturing to her stomach. She gave a thumbs up sign.
"What are you doing here, at this time?" I asked, eyeing on her.
"I wanted to tell yo- oh is that Zaki?"she said pointing to my horse.
I nodded and we walked towards the stable. Alia carassed Zaki and Zaki neighed.
"Can you bring him out? Pleaassee. I want to ride on him. Hes soo cute! He isnt like any other horse! Hey sweety, do you want carrots? Oh wait, does he even eats carrots?" Alia asked.
I nodded and opened Zaki's stable and walked him out to the massive ground, where most of our battle horses were trained. I looked at Alia and she looked elated than ever before. The more Alia carassed Zaki, the more he neighed.
"He likes you. He usually flinches when someone else touches him" i said looking at Alia who was patting him on his head.
"Is it? I dont know but i feel nostalgic touching him. What species is he? I guess he is a Darly Arabian. Hes tall! By the way, how old is he?" Alia exclaimed.
"Yup, he is Darly Arabian. He is 20 years old. I got him...when i was..seven, the year..." i dragged off. Alia was unclear of what i was saying.
"Nevermimd, im going to ride him. So with the permission of the prince, can i ride on Zaki?"she joked. I nodded and I volunteered to lift her up.
"Aye, i dont need any help, i can climb up. Im a knight Azad!" Alia exclaimed. This lady!
Alia jumped up but fall in her first attempt and cried. I quickly went forward to hold her however, she quickly got up.
"Its just my stitches. Maybe im not fully recovered i guess"she continued. "Guess i will just take him for a walk then. Mind showing me your knight troop?"she said patting on Zaki who neighed back.
"You wanted to tell me something right?" I said walking together with her.
"Aqil and I are leaving tomorrow. Our job is done so we are going back" Alia said looking at me.
Zaki neighed.
"You're leaving but..you can stay longer right. I mean why?" I asked in bewilderment.
"I came here to protect you all from the intruders and my job here, is done. So, i have to go back to my native and take care of the other guards. I can already imagine my horses running wild there and my troop knights would be having difficulties by now. I lefrt under abba's care but still you know..you should be there" Alia said gleefully.
Just then, i remembered what Abba said. "Fine, have dinner with me tonight"i said.
"What? Dinner with you? No way, lets meet during dinner with everyone. I have got to change. And by the way, someones dressing has changed! From pants and shirt to suites! Impressive!" Alia pointed to my suite and laughed while walking.
"What to do? Guess i have to listen to the Rani, to my Rani" i murmered to Zaki and he neighed back.
Aisha's POV
"What! You are leaving?! No way. Stay here for awhile. I cant lose you,di!" I cried, sitting beside Alia during dinner.
"Cant lose me or Aqil? Just kidding. Well, you have to understand Aisha. I came all the way to protect you from harm and my work is done here. I need to go back and take a look at my fellow guards and family. I know you are going to miss me soo much, but do remember we can always meet up. Dont worry!"Alia explained.
I was flabbergasted. If only she was leaving, no one would hear my misery and i would have to be stuck with Mumbad with my entire life.

Azad POV
"Assalamualaikum. Azad had come to a decision. Unfortunately, a lot of thing happened in between. But, alhamdulilah, everything ended well. I hereby announce that the bride-to-be is Alia Pirziada from Al-Maqmur" abba announced at the head of the table.
I saw Alia, who was stunned. Aisha who was beside her, threw her arms around her and squeezed every bit of her. Kalsom who was beside her also threw her arms around Alia. Alia was simply squashed between the two girls. In that gap, she managed to make eye contact with me. I winked and she gasped. Damn, she looked soo cute! And of course my heart skipped a beat and the background music started to play in my mind again.
I then noticed Shameerah staring at me. I rolled my eyes purposely, infuriating her more. You deserve it bi-brat!
"You may now enjoy your dinner!"abba announced and sat down. The aromatic food were all placed on the table. It was going to be the best night ever.
Author POV
"You betrayed me Azad! How could you do this to me? You chose a girl who just seduced you in three weeks! Is that your worth?" Shameerah spat at Azad.
"Correction. She didnt seduce me. And i got to see her true colours in three weeks. Even though i have had known you for three years, you were fake" Azad responded.
"How much did you pay her, Azad?" Shameerah asked curtly.
"I didnt pay her; unlike you, who paid to get close to me. Dont think that i dont know anything. You are wasting my time. Go and pack your luggage. You are leaving tomorrow morning" Azad said smirking at her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Well, it was nice meeting you two, and especially you, Alia. You had been a great accompany for me. And guess what? It seems that my parents had proposed somewhere else. Its my cousin's friend. He is also a prince. I had seen him before..soo yaa.." Kalsom finished.
"Hormones are raging!"both Alia and Aisha said instantly. Kalsom hugged both of them.
"Alia, Raja is calling you" Aqil said after opening the door. Alia nodded and followed Aqil.
"So Alia, i have to inform your abba. Everything is happening as per Azad's wish but theres a problem. Well, Azad was betrothed to Salma, princess of Al-Qaima. She has now returned from foreign. Azad's aunt suggested that we should ask her decision of this marriage. Afterall, they were childhood friends. We are leaving the day after tomorrow to Al-Qaima.." he trailed off.
Alia stood there without moving. "If thats the case Raja, then i suggest i go back-" Alia stammered.
"Not so fast dearie. We cant let you go just like that. You have saved us and we surely have to pay you back.." Raja convinced Alia.
"If thats your command, i shall abide by it" Alia ended and left the room with Aqil.
"Assalamualaikum. This Raja Mubashir Khan speaking. We have chosen Alia, your daughter to be weded to Azad"
"Walaikum salaam. Raja, but she is a knight..she isnt a princess!"
"She risked her life to save us and we cant simply lose her"
"Risked her life? What happened? Anything serious?"
"Well, nothing serious but she was stabbed-"
"Ya Allah, save her. Dont let anything happen to her. She is precious to me like a gemstone. I have promised and i am not supposed to break it!" and his voice cracked.
"Do not worry. She is safe. We are bringing her to Al-Qaima the day after tomorrow. Just to acknowledge you, Walaikumsalaam"
