NARRATOR'S P.O.V

A man ran, panting like crazy, inside the mansion, stumbling over the carpet and than regaining balance. Drenched in sweat he ran and ran, as if chasing a squirrel or simply marathoning to Mars. His knackered feet howbeit halted by the door of the throne room, which he shoved open whislt panting heavily. Inside were the royals, the queen's father, her brother and Chirag and Co. It was obvious for the heads to turn towards the door after it's bursting. Thence they saw the panting figure of the mansion's manager cum spy.
"What did you get your hands on!!! " asked the King with authority while his queen clinged to her father. The manager huffed as he trudged inside.
"Um My Lord, Menka Vashisht, I mean ex Vashitsht. She married the influential and wealthy Mahesh Saberwal, but after three years of their illicit marriage, his business collapsed and she left him for another wealthy man. Saberwal died due to excessive alcohol abuse, they assert that he was shattered in the guilt of abandoning his wife and child for well a harlot. Howbeit there's a twist here, so five years back Menka was thrown into prostitution by someone who I'll tell you a bit later. People say that her life turned miserable and she was shattered from inside after forced into prostitution. You know how a life of a prostitute is, right. The brothel she was in, the prostitutes there say that she used to remorsefullay remember her previous lovely family which she abandoned and used to sob guiltily over that, day and night. And three years back, that means after two years of despair and misery, she was shot dead and her dead body was thrown into the Arabian Sea, without cremating. " said he as he gasped for air. The Vashishts were dumbfounded and so were the Ahlawats.
"Who was the one who hated her more than us!!!! " the queen's father said dumbfounded while nandini just stood silent, after all she was her mother and although she hates her but couldn't forget that nohow.
"Exactly whose hatred was bigger than us!!!! She was a witch no doubt, but who would go to this extreme like throwing her into prostitution. I mean she deserved it but still!!!! " said Naksh gawping at the man who broke the news. The man huffed and looked at him.
"Um actually it's Rudrakshi Bajpayee.!!! " he revealed but a bit scared. Now it were the royals who gawp at him in shock and perplexity. Samrat had his mouth agape when he heard him take her name.
"Rudra......Rudrakshi......seriously!!!! She killed her!!! " asked samrat still shocked and dumbfounded. The man nodded.
"Yes Lord, Rudrakshi was the daughter of Saberwal's first wife. She took the revenge of her mother!!! " he apprise her and samrat could only gawp for he was way very acquainted with the girl he mentioned and to say explicitly, he wasn't a huge fan of hers.
"I want to meet her!!!" nandini whispered softly as tears brimmed in her eyes. Samrat gaped at her in shock, perhaps she didn't knew who she was fancieng to meet with. But he will enlighten her for sure.
"Jannu, you don't who she is!!!! She is the biggest arms maker and exporter. Has her own ammunition!!!! Supplies arms and guns to the mafias all around the world. Trust me baby doll, that girl is a monster!!!! " he apprise her still agape but she wasn't going to apprehend so soon. She sniffled and her father consoled his lovely daughter.
"Please Sam for me!!!! I just want to apologise for all what my mother did to her!!!! Please!!!! " she pleaded melting his heart. Had it been any other stuff he would've placed it in her beautiful feet. But that girl was a witch, besides he knew she wouldn't listen to him for she treats the world as shit.
"Samrat my son!!!! Nanu is right!!! Bring her here, we will apologise because although we hate that woman but she was something to us, and hence it's our duty to at least apologise!!! " said her father as she hugged him tightly. Samrat sighed looking at his sniffling wife.
"Ya, Samrat I'll accompany you!!! " said naksh with a voice that brooked no scruple or objection. Samrat huffed as he looked at the hunchback who was straddling on Chirag's waist after hearing her name, not his fault her name is enough for anyone to wet his pants.
"Ok fine, only for nanu!!! So get ready we have to head for brothel!!! " said samrat tiredly and naksh glared at him. Nandini and her father looked at him shocked, after all he was ne'er like that.
"So disgraceful!!! How could you!!! " muttered naksh disgruntled, to which samrat rolled his eyes.
"Prabhu!!!! Coz that's where you'll find her!!! " said he aggravated at his brother in law. Nandini gaped at him.
"That means she is.........!!!" nandini whispered sorrowfully. Samrat shook his head, gesticulated that's not the case.
"It's a man's brothel!!! " he apprise her a bit soft toned.
"What!!!! " they all yelled at the same time while samrat just nodded, folding his arms.
"Yes my lovely people!!! She owns more that a dozen male brothels in different parts of the world!!! And that's her favourite spot for pass time!!! " said samrat shocking the already shocked people. Nonetheless they'd to meet her anyhow, hence the existence of brothels though confounded them buy they resolved to snub it.
"Brother-in-law, let's get going!!! " said samrat grinning while naksh rolled his eyes. And than he blew a kiss to nandini which obviously infuriated naksh for he grabbed his arm and began dragging him out. Nandini blushed and her father chuckled.

They both reached near a brothel. They came out of the car and proceeded towards the door, howbeit on the door they were confronted with a drunk middle aged woman hurled outside the door. They gasp at the sight.
"When you have money in your pockets than come here!!! Huh!!! We don't show our dance in free!!! Perverts!!! " said a man in his 20s companioned with another man of same age. Both looked youthful and beautiful. The boys looked at the two men standing on the door, gawping at them.
"Babu didn't inform us about your arrival!!! Did you take her permission!!! " he asked narrowing his lids at them. Samrat snapped back to reality after he regarded him. He gulped.
"Who's Babu!!!! " asked naksh dumbfounded. The man giggled shyly like the sisters of the bride.
"We call her affectionately as Babu!!! " they blushed heavily while the both men just stared at each other awkwardly. Samrat cleared his throat to get on the point.
"Um is she in!!! " he asked softly. The boys clicked their tongues.
"Huh!!! It had been so many days since she last came here!!!! We miss her so much!!! She's at her place, that's what we know!!!! " he apprise them and they nodded. And without wasting any time, they both swung round to march towards the car. Howbeit his voice stopped them.
"If you're going to her than please tell her that we miss him!!! " he giggled shyly and samrat could only nod at this absurdity. They both went to their car, sat in and drove to her place. The drive consumed one full hour and they finally reached her mansion. The mansion was humongous, no incertitude that she's more wealthy than anyone of them. Their was a big idol of Lord Shiva in the lawn, pretty huge and beautiful. She was a big devotee of Lord Shiva, hence it was pretty obvious for the idol to be present in or out of the mansion. And without wasting much time in admiring the beauty of the mansion, they ventured inside. The door keepers were fairly acquainted to Samrat, hence didn't object when they strode in rather permitted them to stride inside the mansion. Inside they went but found the interiors downright conflicting to what they expected. The interiors in particular weren't baffling for it was pretty beautiful just like every mansion should be, but inside the hall, all they could saw was the sages dressed up in saffron, pacing athwart in the hall. Some bearing the Bhagvad Gita and chanting, while the other some other religious scripture, some sprinkling holy water on every where across the hall. The men were founding themselves gawping at the sight. Howbeit they still tried to strode in but a sage stopped them and gesticulated to remove their shoes and than venture in. They do as ordinated and went inside. In the nucleus of the hall was the proprietor of the mansion, that is, Rudrakshi herself. Apparelled in a sumptuous black suit tight fitted, hairs in a bun with a single flick flopping down on her chiselled face, muscles threatening to rip out from the tight fitted coat and countenance bearing a don't mess with me kind of look. She seemed to be working on her laptop while the sages did their job. Naksh was frightened to the core after seeing the scary girl in front of him. Samrat cleared his throat to get her attention which she did. Although her countenance didn't manifested that she was happy with his arrival.
"Rudrakshi my dear friend!!!!! How have you been!!! " he said as he stride towards her. She gave him a bored look.
"No cut down in the guns prices!!! " she said, staring right into his eyes. Samrat rolled his eyes.
"Rudrakshi my buddy, come on!!! I'm not here for guns!! Let me tell you, so I've married!!! " he grinned and she rested her one knee over the other, staring no glaring at two stupid men in front of her.
"I feet extremely sorry for the girl!!! " she said with no smile nothing. Samrat rolled his eyes while naksh chuckled inwardly.
"Will you just listen!!!! Rudrakshi the girl I've married, she's the daughter of menka, the women you killed!!! And she wants to meet you.....no not to yell on you but to say sorry for her mother's sinful deeds!!!! So please will you come to my palace for one day!!! " he apprise her. She listened patiently and than clicked her tongue.
"About menka, she took everything from me!!!! My mother died because of her!!!! I'd to punish her of course!!!! But you see, I don't have any hatred for your wife!!!! And I don't have time to meet her in your palace, obviously!!! So it's better if you go and tell her that I don't have anything against her.!!! " she said glancing over her wrist watch which was obviously expensive, just like her everything. Samrat sighed, he knew something like this would happen but he would try at least for his nanu.
"Rudrakshi I know that!!!! But my baby is a bit too innocent and naive!!!! She wouldn't just forgive herself if she won't apologise to you, so please I request just spare some time from your busy schedule and come to meet her!!! She's a sweet girl, I promise you'll like her!!! " he tried again. She sighed as she parted her lips to speak something obviously in objection but the sage jumped into the conversation.
"You should go my child!!!! This girl is a good luck charm for anyone close to her. And for you she is pretty good charmed!!! She is a good luck for you my child, I can see your business going high!!!! " said the sage and her eyes twinkled. She smirked as she looked at the two men.
"I'll come but tomorrow!!! By my own!!! " she smirked at the realisation of her business going more successful than ever. Samrat frowned at her selfishness though, but than she was always like that.
"How selfish!!!! " he muttered as he turned his heels and marched away from her mansion to get back to his own palace where his queen awaited him. Besides he wasn't going empty handed though, as he was finally able to persuade rudrakshi to come to the palace. He can't wait to break this news to his nanu.

It was 8:00 pm in the night when they reached the palace, samrat exuberantly broke this happy news to her and her family. And they were over the moon after hearing the news.
"Kesar, don't make anything by yourself tomorrow, I'll tell you what special we've to prepare for her!!!" said nandini to kesar and samrat sighed in pride for she was finally the queen of the palace and not just his heart. Her father too was happy seeing this and wished for her daughter to always stay happy with Samrat inside his palace.
"Papa, brother!!! Um, you please go the dining room and have dinner!!! " she said softly and although they both were taken aback for she always eats with them but didn't say anything. They both quietly went to the dining room for dinner. Kesar and the other retainers too left, leaving the royal couple alone in the throne room. Nandini looked at him seriously and he grew perplexed and anxious at that. She gesticulated him to come near her and he not wanting to madden her more, acquiescently went to her. Once he was near, she asked him to bend down slowly which he did quietly although perplexed. And than a pair of soft lips met the skin of his cheeks and he gaped at her in shock for a moment. She blushed shyly as she ran away from the room, leaving the astonished man alone. He beamed as he watched her running figure.
"I know you love me!!!! You just don't admit!!!! " he whispered as he grinned touching the cheek she kissed.
