Her Secret Lover

Chapter 2

"Doctor, how is she?" Akshat asked when he made her lie down on the bed in the secret hospital. "Not very good. The impact of the stone was really hard. It will take a while for her to regain consciousness," the doctor said.

"I will take care of her," Akshat said to which the doctor nodded.

Midnight....

"Rajkumari!" they heard shouting. Akshat went out and saw the guards. "RajKumar Akshat, have you seen the princess of Pritamgardh?" the guard asked. "Yes, she is in the hospital. Do tell Maharajah to come and see her tomorrow," Akshat said to which the guard bowed and went off.

Akshat went back to Arshita who was sound asleep. He knelt down beside her and caressed her forehead. "How did all this happen?" he asked her, not expecting an answer.

He then went to the bag which he found next to her. He found a kattar which is a small knife and a sword. She might be a warrior princess, he thought.

Next morning.....

"Rajkumar Akshat?" Maharajah Pritam shouted. Akshat quickly ran to the door and opened it. "Namaste," Akshat said. "Where is my sister?" Abhirud said. The three entered and saw Arshita sound asleep.

Adhina brought her ear to Arshita's left chest to check her heart beat. "She might not be awake for a few days," Akshat said. "Where did you find her?" Abhirud asked. Akshat told them the whole story. "Thank you so much for saving my daughters life. She is very careless to ask the guards to go back to the palace," Maharajah Pritam said.

"Please do not spread this news," Akshat requested. "I don't want both our kingdoms thinking me and Rajkumari are getting married," Akshat asked. Abhirud nodded. "We should take her home," Adhina said. "Yes, thank you so much Rajkumar," Maharajah said.

"Chalte hain," the three said. Abhirud carried his sister in bridal style. "Please do not tell he to saved her," Akshat said. "Sure," Adhina replied and they left.

"Abhineet!" Akshat called. "Ji Rajkumar?" Abhineet asked. "Get ready to go back to Sitamgardh," Akshat said. "Yes Rajkumar," Abhineet said and started arranging the carriages.

Akshat sighed. A day of having her with him and he had something weird in him. He could not explain what it was...
