April 13th, 1919-the day acting military commander Reginald Dyer opened fire on the people gathered at the enclosed space of Jallianwala Bagh.

Saraswati is a seventeen year old whose parents died in the same massacre. She barely escapes from being killed herself with the help of a British stranger-a recruit of the Anglo-Indian army. 
Staying with him, she soon finds out that her parents were not simply the victims of a brutal killing, but had been chased and murdered for an entirely different reason.

Saraswati gradually starts to uncover these secrets and their astonishing connection to herself and the mysterious stranger.

The great war in between the two of the greatest kingdoms occurred. The Cholas and the Rajputs. She was the captive and he was the captivator. She was the princess who was committed to someone else, tied by the strong thread of marriage. She was cheated by the brother she thought of as her world and was disowned by the same husband whom she loved and trusted blindly. When the whole world went against her, only he stood by, despite not knowing who she was. ___________________________ " War destroys the landscape in which it is fought; it erodes the natural solidarity between human beings, turning people who might be friends into mortal enemies; and it robs the soldiers who fight of their capacity to speak truth to power-to resist the wars in which they give their lives. What's more, the trauma of war lingers even after the battle is over. People like you who fought this war in the name of justice robbing my brother of his life, decapitating his head from his body, trusting such a dehumanised and monstrous person, and talking to him, NEVER! You are just a violent animal who uses his sword instead of his claws to kill, if the difference is laid out. Please, just get lost from my sight, I don't even want to see your face.." She said, This was the first time she had lost her cool, and it greatly satisfied me, that even if she shouted and called me names, at least she threw out the building tension and indignation at me. I just smiled at her. ___________________________ Adiraj dev Rajput, the one addressed as the Kunwarsa. The Charakraj [THE KING OF THE SPIES] and the Vitt mantri [FINANCE MINISTER] of Jodhpur, who has hidden a lot in him. Can he get her to trust him? When he was the one who destroyed her life, can he also be the one to tape together the shattered pieces? READ SAUNDARYA ~ THE EPITOME OF SACRIFICE Follow me on instagram: watt.sorayairha

Every hour, a team of doctors entered to administer agonizing shocks. Their expressions were blank, their spirits shattered. On the hour, the doctors arrived once more.

They looked back to see a guard firing two bullets. With the sound of gunfire, Manali jolted awake, screaming. She sat up in bed, clutching Anika tightly .

Please note, you may criticise the characters or their actions but no personal attack is allowed. You are requested not to do plagiarized any scene or story. Have a happy reading :-)
