I know this was the moment where my mum was talking about .
It's now or never Gauri .
I turned and look at my mom , she smile and as if she understands me , give me a nod telling me to go ahead.
"I don't" I finally uttered .
There were shocking gasps coming from the audience and Ajay stare me with his coldest stare.
"Gauri" a yell broke out and Omkara came out running from forest with a rope still tied around his neck .
"Omkara" with all the energy I still left , I ran and hugged him.
"Thank god , you are okay" I said to his ears .
"I promised you Gauri , that I'm never gonna leave you" he said stroking my back .
"Well Omkara , you definitely know how to ruin a wedding" ajay said , stepping off the alter .
Omkara pushed me behind and took a step a forward.
"I will just called it lucky timing, I bet" ajay said with his creepiest look ever .
He then took out his sword from his slash.
"Ajay ! What are you doing?" My father asked in outrage .
"What does it look like ? I'm going to kill your daughters beloved peasant, who been troubling me since day one" ajay said holding sword to omkara's neck.
" I don't recall giving you any permission to do so, as the king of this kingdom I order you to put that sword of yours now!" My father said , taking a stand.
"Oh shut up you old fool! I'm too tired of pretending actually to have the same interest to marry your pathetic daughter, I was just surprised that you all didn't get it that , this all just scheme. You think I care about the peace among kingdoms? To tell you the truth, I don't give a damn! I just want the money and the assets which I will inherit after marry your daughter" ajay spun around and pointed the sword at my father.
"How dare you disrespect my daughter in that tone?" My father asked .
"Easy"ajay took his sword and slash it my fathers arms.
"Father!" I scream.
Everyone in the audience sat still , obviously having too much fear to move.
My mother ran to my fathers arms , which bleeding badly .
"You're next lover boy" Ajay said charging at Omkara but he ducked before the sword could hit him and tackled Ajay at the stomach knocking him down .
Ajay punched Omkara on the jaw ,getting on the top Omkara , having the sword at his throat.
I can see the blood begun to drop from omkara's throat , damn! I had to think fast ! I cant afford to lose him especially when we have seeds of love growing inside me. I picked up a nearby rock and throw it right on Ajay's head. Ajay got up off Omkara and began to move towards me , seeing that Omkara get up from the floor and jumped on Ajay's back then knocking him down to the floor.
Ajay dropped the sword due to the pressure and Omkara had him by the throat.
I ran quickly towards the sword , picking it up . I walked over to where Omkara had ajay by throat and struck it through Ajay'S shirt holding to the floor .
"Guards" My father yelled, getting back on his feet .
His arms now were wrapped by extra layer that was under my mother's dress.
"Arrest this man" the guards took Omkara off Ajay , lifted Ajay up putting chains behind his arms.
"Let me go" ajay yelled.
"Guards take this man to dungeon and have this man tortured" my father said.
"No! You can't do that ! I'm your daughters fiancée! Remember your majesty!" Ajay said fighting the guards hold.
"Yes I can ! And Now you're no one ! Not to me or to my daughter! You're just mere criminal, Guards take him now" my father said .
"Let me go" Ajay yelled again, being dragged away.
"Omkara" I ran over to where , he was lying on the floor.
"Are you okay?" I asked him.
"I'm just fine Gauri , I'm just tired" he said with smile.
"Don't ever scare me like that again , I felt like someone sucked the life out of me" I told him helping him up .
"I'm sorry" he said cupping my face and bring his lips onto my forehead.
I close my eyes feeling his lips on my skin after ages .
We stay like that for sometime .
"Excuse me" my father said coming behind us.
"I think I owe you an apology,you just saved my daughter life , even my life too by putting your own life in danger "
"I did it because I love her, she mean world to me" Omkara said looking at me.
"Then you have my blessings , I have to admit that I can't think anyone else better to take my only daughter" my father said taking omkara's hand into a firm shake.
"Thank sir" Omkara said .
"Well since we're here , we might as well get to it then" my father said , taking seat.
"What! Father! Are you serious?" I asked with bulged eyes.
"Yes I am , well since everything already been set up and already have a priest . Isn't this you two wanted?" My father said .
"So are you saying , we can get married now?" I ask.
"That's exactly what I'm saying" he said.
"Thank you father" i said , walking over and hugging him.
Getting up again my father took me by hand said .
"I give my daughter away, to this gentlemen" Omkara walked over talking my head and guiding me to the alter.
Dear beloved ,
"Just skip to end" my father said behind us.
The priest took out , the ring that Ajay handed him before but he was stopped by Omkara .
"I doesn't need a ring , to show how much I love this woman" Omkara said.
Then he turn , looking directly to me and he took my hand on his .
"Dear Gauri , since the ever first day I met you at the stables , I automatically knew at the very moment that you're the one . I swear You're the only thing which occupied my mind day and night . You're one fine beautiful woman , who are full of love , care and passion. I promise you , when the days seems the longer than you can handle , look at me then I will be your candle in a dark filled world filled with hate , I'll be with you till the end of fate .
My tears drops as I never seen someone's eyes filled with passion they're filling omkara's right now .
"Meeting you and falling in love with you , it's like a dream come true , you made me realise what Is love is all about so effortlessly. Even a mere thought of you , can make my heart pacing out .
My heart , my soul and my body only belong to you as you have won them over with your unconditional love Omkara . The moment which we had been shared together had been the best moments of my entire life , it's was so real and all I felt was only pure love . Each and everyday my love for you was only grow , ever since you came into my life you are the lightness who came to brighten my life and my heart . You touched me and my life like no one did before . I promise to love you endlessly and be on your side through thick and thin .
What God has joined together, let no man put asunder. With the power vested in me by God and the king I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride.
Omkara brought his lips on mine and I felt like the world stops.
