Neil: come on princess I have told u before.. u don't have to be shy of me he said smirking

Avni: chii neil u and ur shameless talk

Neil: acha princess sorry ...by the way I came to ask shall we go out and see devgarh we have came here since years right

Avni: hmm not a bad idea but lets go tomorrow the journey from Mumbai to devgarh has been really tiring please if u don't mind

Neil: no worries princess in fact if u want I can stay here with u in the same room what say,,, plus we have been in one room before too

avni remembered  the incident when neil had dared her to say in one room with him till morning and the effect he had on her by coming close to her

Avni: sorry no chance that was a dare which u had given me and I proved to stay with u in one room but right now u stand no chance at all

Neil: right now I have no chance but what r u going to do when we become husband and wife princess (moving closer to her)..' u cant escape from me then and even cant tell me to leave the room ....avni cheeks turned red and she tried not to blush however neil was loving the effect he was having on her'

Neil:  bolo princess im waiting for ur answer what will u do then? He asked  smirking ...

avni didn't know what to say and was praying that someone comes and saves her when she heard a knock on her door which was riya...she thanked god for sending riya just on time' avni pushed neil out of the way and opened the door

Riya: avni di what took u so long to open the' but she stopped when she saw neil in the room too'. A naughty smiled appeared on riya face

Riya:ohhh no wonder y it took u so long to open the door di really sorry to interrupt ur ROMANTIC moment with neil

avni in her mind: hai bhagwan I was thankful that u sent riya over here as my saviour but no I was wrong this rii also started to tease me couldn't  u send someone else' but she stopped speaking to herself when riya was shaking her

Riya: di were r u lost' wait a minute did u start daydreaming about yours and neils romantic moment'. Amazing yaar neil jiju ur charms are very strong that it even made avni di fall for u in a very less time she said giving a hi-fi to neil who was smirking and looking at avni while avni glaredka riya  who was laughing

avni: HA HA HA very funny rii ... please I have other things to do other than day dreaming about neil and  I haven't fallen for neils charm yh he is good looking but that doesn't mean I have fallen for him k'.

Suddenly she heard a voice which was coming from her heart....

Avni heart: lair u have fallen deeply for him and his charm has a strong effect on u" her heart said to her

while her mind said " avni doesn't fall for someone so easily and his charm have no effect on u" she closed her eyes and broke the fight that was happening between her mind and heart'..

Avni: anyways riya what did u come here for

Riya: actually sia jiji and jiju sa have came and sia jiji wants to talk to u that is y I came so make it fast she is waiting for u and also vidyut and his family members have came  rii said leaving avneil in the room' avni turned towards neil

avni: neil I'll go and see sia jiji she said smiling

neil: k princess I will see u at the dining table and both left the room

avni knocked on sia's door who told her to come in

sia: hey gudiya how r u

avni: im fine jiji how r u? both sisters hugged each other and sat down on the sofa

sia: feeling good thank u

avni: jiji what happened riya  told me u wanted to speak to me

sia: haan actually I was with dadi and she told me maybe I could explain it to u in a better way

avni: kya jiji

sia: woh avni after two days it's going to be a very big day for u as it's going  be ur taj-poshi where u r going  become yuvrani of devgarh and along with that a lot of responsibilities will come which will involve a lot of people life especially devgarh people where u have to take decision for their wellbeing' sia stopped and looked at avni who was a little tense'. Avni looked at sia when she felt her hands on her

avni: jiji I will try my best to  with all these responsibilities but making decision for people?  jiji what if I make a wrong decision which ruins somebody's life then what will happen?... everyone will hate me and think dadi has made a wrong decision by making me a yuvrani just imagine jiji what if that happens' sia giggled slightly

sia: avni u imagine things a lot' avni dadi can see that u have that potential of managing everything....but she was not able to complete when riya spoke who came and sat in front of them

Riya: sorry to speak in-between sia jiji but if dadi knows that avni di is capable of managing everything then y did she tell di  to forget about joining sanjevani hospital, Forget about being a doctor when everyone knew that this was her dream since years' avni didn't want this topic to come up as it always upsets her 

avni: rii please don't talk about this'

Riya:  how long r u going to avoid it... u know that this truth is always gone effect u over here she said pointing towards avni heart...sia and avni were looking at their little sister who had tears In her eye'... avni di I know I hurt u by bringing this topic but im sorry I couldn't control myself when sia jiji said that dadi knows u r capable of handling everything ' avni bent down wiped riya tears and hugged her tightly after a while she broke the hug and said

avni: ri u r the best sister and  u know what I will ask bhagwan ji to make u my sister in every life plus u don't look nice when u cry

riya: I love u di she said hugging her again

avni: I love u too' sia looked at the love between her sisters and to make the atmosphere better she said

sia: see riya u always complain that avni loves me more but now u know how much she loves u

Riya: sia jiji u both r the best sister and like avni di even I wish and pray that I have u two as my sister in every life' three of them laughed and gave a group hug
sia was sitting in the middle of the sofa while avni was sitting on the floor laying her head on sia's lap and riya was laying her head on avni lap
sia: riya, avni u know dadi had got married in a very young age and she became the maharani of devgarh.. dad was about 14 I think while bua sa about 9 when dada sa died in a accident' dadi had become a widow in a very young age but she didn't give up hope and knew that now she had to live for her children and her kingdom....years passed and she was making progress in devgarh she took care of her responsibilities as being a maharani  and also as a mother by making her kids educated and getting them married' to be honest whatever we have and whatever position we are in is all because of dadi' u know avni dadi told me that she sees herself in you and she knows you will take  good care of devgarh and let no harm come to ur kingdom' avni I know u cant be strong in a day but when u have all of us with u then we all know that u wont lose hope so please don't be nervous we all r there and will always be there especially dadi to guide u

Riya: although I have disagreements with dadi but I love her loads and im Proud to be her granddaughter

avni: u r right ri we should be proud of being mrinalini devi granddaughter' jiji I promise I will try to fully all my responsibilities well and let no harm come to devgarh.. sia smiled and caressed her head and soon three of them left as it was nearly dinner time the elders hadn't arrived nd only vijay, juhi, vidyut, daksh, aman and neil were present at the table' three of them came and sat down, avni was sitting opposite to neil

vijay: arien what took u guys so long' avni was about to reply but before that riya started to answer

Riya: nothing vijay bhai us three were just spending time together as we havent done that since sia jiji has gotten married and it was so awesome

vijay: guys see my siblings here were spending time and forgot to call their one and only brother now I know they don't love me he said dramatically

Aman:vijay bhai I'm here too..

avni: vijay bhai its nothing like that in fact sia jiji wanted to talk to me so she called me and after a while riya joined us too otherwise can it be that we leave u and aman out

Vijay: avni stop supporting riya all the time

Juhi: ok vijay banna calm down' till then all the elders came

Dayawanti : everyone can start their dinner' after a while neil spoke

Neil: dadi  wo I need ur permission

Dayawanti: permission for what neil beta

Neil: actually can we all go out and see devgarh tomorrow as its been ages since we have came here

Dayawanti : sure beta u all can go but be careful ' avni looked at neil confusingly as she thought only her and neil were going

Juhi: wow this is going to be awesome.. vidyut who was sitting next to her whispered in her ears

Vidyut: of course it will be awesome when u have a company like me so close to u' juhi blushed and didn't look up in case if someone caught her blushing but after a while when she did she caught avni winking at her and giving her a naughty look

Everyone was done and the elders were sitting in the living room talking while the youngsters went outside in the garden they all sat down and were talking... avni who was sitting next to neil whispered to him making sure nobody is looking at them

Avni: neil I thought u said only us two will be going to see devgarh' neil looked at her with a smirk

Neil: wow princess I didn't know that u wanted to spend some time alone with me

Avni: huh? No its nothing like that plus I don't have a problem if the rest comes beside it will be even more fun otherwise I will get bored with u

Neil; really but I don't think u have ever got bored with me

Avni: that's what u think' but sometimes you're not so boring..( she turned to others)  ok guys im going to sleep good night' all the others said good night' she then turned towards neil and gave him a smile before leaving.

Juhi: bhai what time r we all leaving tomorrow

Neil: after breakfast choti

Riya: what? Omg then I need to sleep now to wake up early.

Vijay: yh riya I think u should go otherwise if ur not ready then the plan to go out tomorrow will have to be cancelled I TELL U and started laughing but stopped when riya slapped him on his arms' soon all of them started to leave from there

Neil went into avni's room and saw that she was already asleep he went near caressed her hair and kissed her forehead before leaving

Meanwhile in riya room
Riya : this is not fair ali everyone is here except u

Ali: come on riya u know that nobody knows about our relationship except neil and avni

Riya : so? U have came whenever there is an function so y not now..u know what I will make sure avni di calls u

Ali: ok I can never win against u now go to sleep k good night love u

Riya: love u to bye

The next morning all the youngster were ready and had their breakfast and finally left in  jeep however sia and daksh stayed back home as nobody found it safe for her to stay out for long in this condition' neil was driving while vidyut was sitting on the passenger seat and avni, juhi, rita, aman and vijay sat at the back' riya who was sitting next to avni decided to ask her making sure nobody is listening to them

Riya: avni di can u call ali and tell him to come over' in a whispering tone

Avni: I thought u must have called him so I didnt ask y he didnt come she said in a whispering tone

Riya: god he isnt listening to me di please call him and tell him to come here

Avni: k baba in fact I will send him a message now and tell him to get here asap k

Riya: thanks jiji I love u and hugged her . both broke apart when vijay spoke

Vijay: what r u both speaking about and riya y do u seem to be so happy

Avni: nothing vijay bhai just like that riya just wanted to invite a couple of friends so she was asking if they can come that's y

Vijay: oh k but u sure its nothing else

Avni: no vijay bhai

Soon enough they reached to a place where they can see the whole devgarh all got out of the jeep and just loved how the place looked

Avni: beautiful she said in a daze

Neil: its beautiful but not more than u..' avni  stiffened  when she felt neil whispering near her ear she turned around but saw that he was looking ahead of her she smiled and turned around'.

They all went around to look at the different places and done a little bit of shopping and was heading back to devgarh palace while taking loads of picture soon

Vijay:omg its 5 already we should be heading back.

Vidyut: ur right vijay banna its been really long and im already tired

Vijay: exactly we r tired but look at these girls they r not tired I mean their shopping doesn't end at all 'I tell u' vidyut nodded his head and then looked at neil who was  laying on the jeep bonnet with his eyes closed. while vijay bhai was sitting on the driving seat, aman at the back busy on his phone and vidyut on the passenger as they were waiting for the girls who was busy choosing stuffs for everyone else.

Vidyut: neil where u lost dude or r u lost in someone thought' neil opened his eyes and looked towards the boys giving his usual smirk

Neil: vidyut u should no that yuvraj Neil Khanna  doesn't get lost into anyone but the others get lost thinking about him

Vijay: finally here come the girl

Juhi: k we r done now

Vijay: thank god otherwise these girls shopping doesn't seem to end at all

Riya: so that's your problem' neil was looking at avni but she didn't notice as she was busy texting someone on the phone

Vijay: chalo neil banna come on ur driving seat' they all sat down and headed to the palace' riya ran to neela who was sitting in the hall with the other elders and sat
next to her

Riya: mom u know we bought all of u something.. me, riya and juhi had to keep looking until we found something appropriate see look.. and she started to show everyone their gifts' neil who was standing near avni pulled her by her duppata closer to him

Avni: neil what r u doing' in a whispering tone

Neil: princess you chose and bought gifts for everyone else he said whispering

Avni: yes but what does that have to do with u pulling me? In the same tone

Neil: it does u remembered bringing gifts for everyone else but not me but no worries  I exactly know how to claim my gift he said in a husky tone' she shivered on the way he spoke and his breath falling on her ears' she turned her face slightly and saw him looking at her and then towards her lips giving her goose bumps.. she turned away and slightly moved away from him but still could feel his gaze on her back' she looked around and thanked god that everyone was busy in looking at the gifts and quickly went and sat inbetween ashish and prakash' neil smirked as he can see how avni was trying to hide her nervousness 

ashish turned towards avni and was thinking about how his small pari has grown up and recalled  the times of  little avni

ashish turned towards avni and was thinking about how his small pari has grown up and recalled  the times of  little avni

Flashback
Avni was running around and trying to hide from neela as she didn't want to drink milk she quickly ran to neelas room nd hid behind ashish… ashish smiled and picked his little girl in his arm

Ashish: pari what happened why r u hiding

Avni: shhh… she said putting her small fingers on ashish lips… paa ma is binging (bringing) mik (milk) so I am hiding fom (from) her and I don (don't) wan (want) to dink (drink) it.

Ashish: ohhh now that is a big problem while avni nodded

Neela came into her room still holding the milk glass as she searched for avni everywhere and couldn't find her and finally saw that she was in her room

Neela: avni beta app yaha hain and I have been searching for u everywhere come on drink this milk now

when neela was moving forward avni hugged ashish tightly as if her life depended on him…

Neela: ashish  please tell her to drink milk see how stubborn she is.. ashish nodded and sat on the bed and placed avni on his lap who still was hugging him

Ashish: avni beta look at me… (avni looked at him with her big eyes)… beta u want to be like me strong right… avni nodded…. Then you have to drink milk because if you don't drink milk then how will you become like me and good kids always drinks milk and u r my pari right

Avni: haan I will dink (drink) mik(milk) and be stong (strong) and I am ur pali (pari) ashish and neela smiled… avni got off from ashish lap and ran to neela who made her sit on the couch and gave her milk… avni looked at the milk and then ashish and drank it in a go

Neela: well done bacha
End of flashback

Ashish smiled and wiped the tears that were about to fall out from his eyes any second however his mother didn't miss it

Dayawanti : ashish beta what happened y r u crying… everyone turned their attention towards ashish

Ashish: nothing maa saab just thinking about how time passed by… how our kids grew up so quickly how avni is going to become yuvrani in few days… avni smiled and hugged ashish

Aman : k enough of this emotional scene im very hungry lets go and eat.. they all headed towards the dining table and avni avoided sitting anywhere near neil or opposite him...once finishing dinner avni excused herself and went to her room she decided to change in her pj once she came out of the washroom she was pulled by a strong pair of arms and before she could scream her mouth had been covered but after a while she realised that this was none other than neil and opened her eyes instantly and looked straight into his eyes

Avni: neil u scared me she said pushing him and was about to move away when she got pulled into his embrace again and he was holding her firmly by her waist

after a second avni found herself pinned towards the wall and caged by neil

Neil: princess when u know im going to claim my gift then why r u running away. He said looking towards her lips and tracing it slightly as he knew avni finished her dinner early so she could get away from him

Avni: its nothing like that its just that im tired because of the long day and I haven't got any gift for u so how r u going to claim it she said avoiding eye contact with him

Neil: u very well know how I am going to claim it he said tracing her lips again making her shiver he was leaning closer and was about to capture her lips when avni turned her face away neil turned her face towards him and was closing the distance and slowly brushed his lips against hers… avni clutched neil shirt from his waist and then he started to kiss her slowly which was slowly turning passionately ...few secs later avni pushed neil away and walked towards the window trying to catch her breath but all of a sudden she could feel her back against hisb chest as neil pulled her by her waist... he moved her hair to one side to get access to her neck and gave small kisses avni was already feeling weak and held on to his hands which were resting on her waist… after a while he picked her up and placed her on the bed and was leaning towards her but then both got shocked when juhi barged into avni room and she was also shocked to see avni on the bed and neils face close to avni .. neil left the room without saying anything and avni looked at juhi giving a nervous smile… juhi came out of her shock and came and sat next to avni on the bed… avni was cursing neil for leaving her in this situation

Juhi: so?

Avni: so?

Juhi: avni u and bhai seem to be in a hurry she said naughtily

Avni: nooo its nothing like what u thinking

Juhi: hmmm sure the position u both were in anyone could tell that u were about to kiss avni looked away and her cheeks had turned red… and I know u love him so much… avni looked at her confusingly

Avni: how do u know this is love? Juhi looked at her surprisingly

Juhi: come on avni don't u love bhai?.. anyone can see it in your eyes

Avni: tbh juhi u may think im stupid and maybe I am but the truth is I have never been in love before so how would I know how that feels im just really confused about my feeling for neil … juhi held on to avni hand

Juhi: ur not stupid avni… bhai does have an effect on u and we all can see in fact I have seen it many time.. u r already falling for bhai and one day u will know it yourself hmm she said hugging her best friend... k its already late u got to sleep tomorrow we have so many things to do before the taj-poshi good night

Avni: juhi

Juhi: hmm

Avni: erm can u please erm u know not tell anyone about what u saw

Juhi: don't worry u no I wont… good night

Avni: gd night

The next day there was so many preparation going on as the next day it will a big day for all of them especially avni, everyone was busy in their work avni came down and she went towards vijay, vidyut and neil however she greeted vijay and vidyut only  but ignored neil…

avni was going to riya when she saw sia also helping out and was talking to the flower man

Sia: bhaiya please put those flowers over here and also the colour combination should... but she couldn't complete when avni interrupted her

Avni: jiji what r u doing shouldn't u be resting

Sia: arien avni nothing im just u know helping out

Avni: jiji u should be resting come on

Sia: avni im fine

Avni: k fine if u don't rest now then tomorrow u cant attend the taj-poshi ceremony at all 

Sia: avni this is blackmailing

Daksh: its not blackmailing now come on eat this apple and then go and rest otherwise tomorrow u will not be going anywhere isn't it salli ji

Avni: exactly jiju sa and both laughed while sia looked at them annoyingly and took the plate from her husband and went to her room.

everyone was so busy In doing all the preparation that they didn't get time to breath

neil saw avni and saw that she was in the corner by herself doing some work  he quickly walked towards her and pulled her behind the pillar where nobody can see them avni looked at him surprisingly  but then she remembered she was angry with him.. she folded her arms and looked away from him

neil: princess y r u ignoring me….

No reply

Neil: princess look at me… but she didn't

Neil: princess I said look at me but she still didn't and he turned her face towards him and this time she did look at him…. Y r u ignoring me? And y do u look annoyed?

Avni: y? do u think I should be happy… u should be sorry that u left me in that situation all by myself to give juhi an answer of what was happening between us two she said giving him a small pout… neil smiled at her

Neil: then u should of told her what we were doing… avni turned red

Avni: huh u think its funny only I know how I felt in that situation.. now move I have so much work to do she said running away from there
