Chakravarti Samrat Bharat ever since taking the pledge did sit again on his throne. He had been performing yagyas after yagyas with the help of Maharishi Kanva to bring Devi Yuddh-kaushala down to earth.

It would take them great number of yagyas, for Harihareshwari generous as she is, is hard to attain. Ever since the beginning of Satyug and onset of Tretayug, if there was one person who had attained her completely was Shreeshaktiswar.

And at the moment she was with him, the one with whom she rightfully belonged. Both of them sitting under a tree, gazing at the starry night. He was seated with his back resting on the trunk of the tree, while she was rested her head on his lap, laying on the soft grass of Chaitanya Lok.

His sturdy hands brushed through her long locks ever so gently, with so much love that it became heavy on her eyelids as she struggled to keep them open.

They weren't talking, they had stopped communicating with their words, now their heartbeats spoke their minds. There was blessed silence, that allowed them to enjoy each other's company without being bothered by anything.

Her mere presence filled his self with so much love, affection and warmth. With her by his side, at one moment he felt that he had conquered the entire universe while the other moment he felt nothing was worth looking in the universe beside her.

To her, his presence gave all the safe feelings and security in the world. With him by her side, she felt so strong that any hurdle could be overcome by her with a smile on her face, but at the same time it made her feel that nothing will go wrong as long as he is with her.

And that was the reason, she fell into deep slumber without any care in the world. It took him a moment to realise that she had fallen asleep. He shook his head with a small smile on his face.

Srinav carefully placed one arm under her waist and the other beneath her legs, swiftly picking her up in his arms and standing up.

As he walked inside the palace and made his way up to their room, Amarsri's head rested on his shoulder bone and hands over his broad chest, right above the heart.

He gently placed her on the bed and pulled the duvet over her, then went to the other side of the bed, removed his mukut and lied down. But seeing his beloved was sound asleep facing the otherside, a pout appeared on his face.

He wanted to see her face and hold her close, but at the same time didn't want to wake her up. He didn't want to wait till she turns to face him either, and thus he thought of his trusty plan.

Srinav raised his hand up and summoned a big, white and fluffy feather. He smiled as he went closer to her and gently brushed the feather down her spine.

And as expected, the tickling sensation made her turn to the other side and right in his arms that he had extended just for her.

Srinav smiled proudly making the feather disappear and then pulled the love of his life closer, holding Amarsri to himself as if she was the universe's most esteemed treasure, which she indeed was to him.
