"Yes, I did this. I spiked the drink of Manik in that party." Soha confessed

Manik fist hardened,  his jaw clenched and eyes ragged. He closed his eyes to control his anger. "Why?" He asked very low and intimidated way which made everyone in the room jump with fear.

"Really Manik? Why??? You are asking seriously? I am after you since we are kids, years passed but you never shown me any hope to be your life partner and what do I do to get you? Knowing you, that was best way to make you mine. If we had made that day you would have married me I would have standing besides you enjoying the title of queen and your company which now this slut is enjoying" Soha thrown all the venom in her each word.

Nandini gasped listening to Soha addressing her as slut. Her eyes bulged, tears flowing like river. Body shaking and felt pith in stomach she want to throw everything from her body. She closed her mouth with hand and ran to washroom. Manik ran behind her. Before turning he looked at krishna "I want them to scream harder I want to listen their voices"

Nandini is throwing away, manik held her hair and started to rub her back. Comforting her all time. She is not in condition to feel listen and think. I the same pain which she went through on that day is been coming back to her. When Manik turned her and made her drink water and washing her mouth, she is hearing and seeing all the scenes from that day cake scrolling infront of her.

"Nandu baby Shona see I will be gentle it's our night we have each other. See I am giving my virginity to you as you are giving to me please Shona I will be slow gentle and soft, see your so soft"  the words which Manik spoke on that day in drugged state, Nandini closed her ears to stop all them but she is still listening. She got scared fear engulfed her, Soha words "this slut is enjoying" is roaming in her head

Manik looked at her with shock, she is looking scared which made Manik get more worried "princess! See look at me once only once"
She is not responding
"Shona, baby listen"
Those names made Nandini get more shrink in fear she came out of grip and walked to corner and sat down looking at Manik with fear "No Manik you can't do this to us, please you will regret in the morning I beg you please"
Manik felt like his earth has been slipped and he about to drown and slip down he held the wall for support, he got tears "what did I do to you princess what did I do?"

Manik walked to Nandini "Nandini look at me" he said in harsh tone.
She hugged her knees more tight listening to her "No Manik I beg you. Please leave me........ you can't do this to us.......... your regret will kill me" She is begging him
Manik hit the wall in anger, again and again and again his knuckles started bleeding which made Nandini look at him. She saw his hand bleeding "No....... I will.......... no........ see I came to you do whatever you want but please don't hurt yourself" she is blowing air on his knuckles
Manik got more angry he jerked Nandini hands and took his hand and about to beat his fist on wall again Nandini came between wall and him he stopped instantly his eyes are blood red, she closed her eyes and face with her tiny hands in anticipation
When she felt he stopped she removed her hands and opened her eyes, when she looked at him, her all agony went away and only his pain was prominent in her eyes she ran towards him and wiped his tears, hugged him tight "I will kill myself if see tears in your eyes Manik" she said in crying tone
Manik hugged her tight "and I want to die at this very moment doing all that to you and seeing you suffer again and again"
"No Manik No it was you and me which is best at its part"
"Then why are you in pain?"
She took a step back as reality hit her
"She called me......." Nandini bit her lip to control the pain which she is experiencing in heart by that particular word "sl....." Manik stopped her by kissing her harshly. Kiss was no near to soft it was like making all her pain to to grabbed out of her in force Nandini felt more pain in this kiss and it gave her more comfort and made her cry in pain more by words which Soha spoke. She started crying in the middle of kiss Manik held her tight in a hug. All came running listening to Nandini cry.

Manik didn't stop her, about half an hour she cried. After that night it's first time she cried her heart out. She started beating punching crying and even bit Manik in anger and pain.
"How could you regret????? How could you????? Did you marry me out sympathy?????? How dare you Manik how dare you?????? I am want to kill you rip your head and cut your throat for thinking so..... how could you?????? I loved you dam it.,,, I gave you my heart soul and everything but you?????????

You are same responsible as this bitch Soha is....... you failed my love did you hear me?????? You failed me..... MY lOVE I hate you" she slapped him tight  with hiccups
When she listened to the sound she came out of trance and looked at her burning hand and Manik she gasped "Manik" she flood tears again

Everyone standing they are was still. Air was thick with tension all faces are in shock not a single word nor and sound came out breathing is so loud it is heard.
Manik took Nandini wrist dragged her to himself and hugged her tight "and I love you madly hamesha. I never failed you. Never, I knew it. All time from the moment I opened my eyes I regret as I gave you scars and pain, I regret I was not in conscious when I lost it with you for you, I regret that I made to beg to leave you. And I totally deserve this slap" he kissed her head with the smile she blushed

All left their breath which they are holding from long back. It's Nidhi who came to Nandini and took her from Manik and hugged her wiped her tears made her wash her face and gave water to drink.
"Let us first show this father and daughter their place then we will deal with Manik," she said
Manik smiled watching both with relief

All walked out of washroom  listening to the screams of Soha and her father
"Krishna!!!!! I want this dirt out of my sight, ask them to pay the penalty in two days if not go with legal proceedings and you Soha apologise to princess properly for disrespecting now"
"Me and apologising this who....." she got slapped by the security again she screamed in pain "now" Manik said in his king's tone
She shivered "I am sorry"
"I didn't hear you say properly" Manik said smirking
"I am sorry" she gritted
"No properly" Manik commanded
"I.am. Sorry. Princess" she stressed each word
Manik came to Soha leaned down "now your punishment, work as assistant to queen's second grade assistant Tara, you will start working from now."
Nandini took his arm to stop him Manik kept his hand on her hand and pressed to assure her "no need of sympathy princess, you Soha you will address her as queen, and me king, you will never lift your head infront of her and talk directly to her, you will just listen and do as she say each and every word should be followed properly for full six months"
"No king no leave her I beg you she is a kid please king"
"Is she really a kid???? Drugging some one and making them loose is definitely not childish atleast not for me, so shut up and do as I say now"
"Krishna! Bring her home" he commanded took Nandini and walked away leaving begging Khurana back
