SIYAASAT - Chapter 67: Chapter 67

Rehan Pratap Singh
I was taken aback when I listened to her.
" Palace"
" Oh my god Rehan I can't believe it Palace, a real Palace and it's mine," she said excited.
" Meri Chahat"
" A Real Palace"
" I always want to live in a Palace"
" I can touch anything I can call it mine"
"  Yes Rehan I wouldn't marry anyone but a Prince "
All the things are running inside my mind with a terrible headache I'm feeling.
I look at her she is not looking like she said that just like that I can see the calculating look in her gaze.
I confessed my love and she wanted a Palace.
" Are you happy with this engagement?" I asked with caution her lips curled upwards and she chuckled a little.
" Of course, I'm happy what do you think happiness is? Running behind your husband and begging him to listen to you or listening to the life-threatening threats from Mother in law. This can be your definition of happiness not mine" she leans back and raise her eyebrow.
" I know it takes time in transferring the property but I don't have time " she glanced down at her nails " as you know today is my engagement " she stand straight " don't waste time here ya toh Palace mere naaam karo ya divorce papers pe sigh kar do".
I clenched my jaw and look at her for a second before turning and leaving her room.
^^^^^^
Swadheenta
I look at his back as he leaves the room.
Ab dekhte hai Rehan pyaar kitna saccha hai.
I walk forward and suddenly my head spun I took the support of the wall and move my hand to my forehead.
Is this the effect of the intoxicant which Rehan had taken? How can this be possible?
" Swadheenta" I heard Kirti call and found her standing at the door.
" Ayaan is here" I nodded.
Let's do it Swadheenta. I sigh before smiling.
Hall
I saw my family present in the hall and Ayaan too.  I stand in front of him and smiled and he tried to smile back.
" Let's start," Bhabhi said and come forward with the plate in her hand which has rings.
Ayaan picked up the ring and look at me. He frowned when he sees I'm not forwarding my hand. I shook my head smiling and he knitted his eyebrows.
" What happened Swadheenta?" Bhai asked.
" Don't you want to do engagement?" Ma asked.
" Ma engagement will happen but with his real Bride" I move backwards and Sohani comes forward wearing the same lehenga which Ayaan chose.
Ayaan's expression was worth watching as he sees Sohani coming toward him with a smile on her face. His mouth is open and he is blinking like making sure Sohani won't disappear.
" Close your mouth Ayaan" he looked at me.
" Ho-w, h-ow " he cleared his throat " how is this possible?" I shrugged smiling.
" Sohani " he turned towards her.
" I forgive you Ayaan but if you had told me I would've helped you guys" she looks at me and Ayaan.
" Accha enough talks now make each other wear the rings," I said and they both look at each other and blushed before slipping the ring on each other's finger. I clapped seeing them and my smile turned into a sad one.
I'm sorry I hurt you both but I'll never become the reason to separate you guys. This happiness is not in my destiny but I won't snatch it from you guys.
Ayaan looked toward me and I frowned.
" Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you so much," he said twirling me around before hugging me tightly.
" How did you convince her?"
" My magic" I moved my fingers.
" You're not an enchantress"
" Shut up or you want me to tell you Sohani that we are not doing this fake engagement for a photoshoot, we are doing real"
" Bura kyu maan rahi ho accha yeh batao gift me ring here ki logi ya sone ki?"
" Yeh bhi koi puchne ki baat hai" he hugged me again and I close my eyes smiling.
I open my eyes and they widened when I saw Rehan standing in front of me with a murderous expression my heart stops for a second when I saw him raising his hand and pointing a gun straight at Ayaan's forehead.
He move his thumb towards the trigger I pushed Ayaan before I can register anything and the sound of a gun fired was heard. I place my hands on my mouth my heart feels like it can come out any moment the way it racing the smoke is still coming out from the gun.
" I said do whatever you want but don't forget you are mine" he growled from his throat and I was taken aback by the fact that he fired the gun. He move forward and grabbed my hair in a firm grip pulling me closer.
" Apni keemat kaise laga sakti ho, hum pyaar karte hai tumse tum anmol ho humare liye or tumhe vo Palace chahiye," I asked pulling me closer I look in his red eyes I blink not believing that I saw the unshed tears in his eyes.
" You don't have any feelings for me all matters to you is that I'm Prince if I'm not you'll not come back to me"
" I know I did a mistake and I'm sorry it is not in my hand to go back in past and change things if it is I would but this doesn't mean I'm not regretting it, I'm ashamed, I'm sorry but didn't you get satisfied seeing me miserable" he shouted the last part.
" I asked you, ask me anything just to end this misery I would have given you my life if you want but you asked for Palace" he shook me and left me with a jerk.
" Aj hum sabke samne tumse maafi mangte hai ki Swadheenta hume maaf kar do" he moved back and join his hands keeping his face down.
I got still he. He apologized, he apologized in front of everyone till now he was saying it was a misunderstanding, it was circumstances play but he never apologize but today.
" Or na bhi karo na toh hum ab is tadap ko khud katam kar lenge" he look up and I got scared when I see the look of determination in his dark eyes. He took out the roll of paper and asked.
" You wanted Divorce, right?"
He tore the papers from the middle in front of my eyes and threw the pieces in the air I stood there shocked he come forward and grabbed my wrist and dragged me with him we took to three steps when my Bhai stand in front of us blocking our way. My eyes widened when I saw Rehan raising his gun at my Bhai.
" Nahi, nahi, nahi" I move forward grabbing Rehan's hand.
" I will go with you, do anything you want, please don't hurt my Bhai" he didn't look at me he is still glaring at my Bhai.
" Bhai get aside" I shouted angrily.
" Get aside and let him take you with him?" he asked.
" Bhai..."
" Rehan let go of her right now" Bhai took a step ahead, and Rehan shake his head.
" You'll go with me, right?" Rehan turned toward me, and I immediately nodded.
" Let's..." He didn't complete his sentence as Bhai punched him and stumbled back keeping a hand on his jaw.
He look up glaring at my Bhai and I didn't register that he hit my Bhai so quickly that only the sound of my Bhai colliding with the glass table come.
" Bhai" I screamed and snatch my hand from his grip and run towards him. I swat down next to him Bhabhi and Ma also come forward. Bhai move his head up and I saw the wound on his forehead.
I clenched my fist and stood up moving my head back to look at him. I turned and stalk him. He look at me the corner of his lips bleeding I raise my hand and slapped him.
Do whatever you want with me but never raise an eye on my family.
" I will never go with you" he looks at me bewildered.
" Get out" I order, there is tears in both of our eyes I close than and move towards my Bhai.
I Bhabhi and Ayaan help Bhai in standing up. I glare at Rehan as he looks at me and walks past us walking towards the door.
^^^^^^^
Rehan Pratap Singh
I come out of her home and feel myself getting dizzy. I stood with the support of my car and I feel darkness consume me.
I open my eyes and found myself in my room and a terrible headache hit me. I groaned as I sat up and saw a glass and pills forward towards me.
" Dev what happened?" I asked him to take the pill and drink the water.
" What did you consume?"
" I don't remember much I went to the casino then" the memories are in a blur my gaze fell on the mirror and I saw a bruise on my face.
" What happened?"
" Bhabhi ne apne pyaar ka izhaar kiya hai" Soham said and I frowned. I sat leaning against the headboard and try to remember what happened. I sat up with a jerk
" What happened?" Dev asked.
" I messed up," I told all the things which I did.
" Jitna sahi kiya tha," Soham said.
" Usee jyada kharab kar diya but I'll correct it" I throw the quilt and stood up " I'll go and apologize to Aarav and Swadheenta " I was going to the door when Karthik came and blocked my way.
" There is news from Madhavgarh "
" I don't want to know anything about there" I move past him but he grabbed my arm.
"Rajmata's health is not fine "
All I want is to go and tell truth and apologize to Swadheenta and Aarav but..
" You can meet them after first going to Madhavgarh is important"
" He is right " Dev says placing a hand on my shoulder.
I'll come soon Swadheenta and make everything alright I promise.
^^^^^^
Swadheenta
" There is need to worry it's just a minor scratch," the Doctor said and goes out.
I look at my Bhai who is in bed with a bandage on his head with tears in my eyes. He open his arm and I hugged him keeping my face on his chest.
" Don't cry"
" How can I not this is all my fault, if I never been stubborn to marry him then nothing like happened this will happen it's all my fault " I cried keeping my head again on his chest.
" Shh," he caressed my head.
" Then it is also my fault because I let you marry him if I had stopped you nothing like this would happen"
" Nahi Bhai"
" Swadheenta listen to me" he turned serious.
" Whatever happened we can't change it but we can change the future" I nodded, and he forwards his hand.
" Promise me that you'll never go back to him" I took a deep breath staring at his hand.
This is right Swadheenta.
I place my hand on top of his and nodded, he smiled.
" But what if he took some legal action and tried to take my daughter with him then," Papa said worriedly.
" That's why don't stay here Swadheenta go with Ma and Papa you will go, right?" Bhai asked, I nodded.
^^^^^^
Madhavgarh
I come out of the car and look at the Palace in front of me the memories start flashing in front of me. When I took Swadheenta here the bitter memory when she left from here and when I also left this Palace.
I entered and remember when I step inside with Swadheenta. I can see her stepping outside but I can't do anything to stop her.
I pass the hall and saw Swadheenta crying while sitting on the floor. I climb the stairs and come to the corridor.
I saw Swadheenta running around. That's why I don't want to come here everything reminds me of her.
I entered Rajmata's room and found her laying on the bed with nurses around the bed.
" Rajmata" I called softly.
" Yuvraj" she whispered weakly and tried to sit up.
I immediately go towards her and help her and sat in front of him.
" How are you Yuvraj?" She asked placing her hand on my cheek. She is the only one from I get love except for Swadheenta.
" Rajkumari didn't come with you?" I look aside.
" I'm sorry Yuvraj "
" Rajmata it's not your fault " I grabbed her hand.
" Then come back Yuvraj"
" I can't"
" Yuvraj ..." She coughed and I grabbed the glass of water and gave it to her. She shook her head and grabbed my hand.
" Yuvraj Madhavgarh khatre me hai Nilay ke khilaf koi sabut nahi mila tha isliye hum unhe bahar nahi nikal paaye lekin vo bhi apni Ma se kaam nahi hai " I know it.
" Yuvraj please took our responsibilities of being Maharaj and asked your Maharani to come back too because I'm afraid there is danger lingering on her head too after all she is Maharani" I sigh.
" Rajmata..."
" Na mat kahiye Yuvraj "
" Jaisi apki Agya " she smiled.
" Ab aap aram kijiye" I stood up and walk towards the door when she called me and I turned back.
" Chinta mat kijiye Yuvraj hume apne nahne Rajkumar ya Rajkumari ko dekhne se pehle kuch nahi hoga" a smile come on my face and she smiled back.
I come out of the room.
I swear Rajmata I'll make everything alright soon.
