RAGHAV'S POV

"Did you talk to officials about it? " I asked looking into the papers.

"The lawyers have been seeing the matter Yuvraaj " My PA, Mr. Diwaan spoke.

The pen stopped right there before signing and I looked at him.

"I need the results of it within one hour Mr. Diwaan . Lawyers can wait for any other case but remind them that if I don't get the matter resolved with in one hour, they don't need to look into my estate anymore. I'm well capable of hiring someone else and they aren't the only ones good out there" I deadpanned and he nodded

Signing the file, I closed it keeping the pen in the pen holder and slid the file opposite side and turned my Mac book on again for working.

"What is it Mr. Deewan" I asked still typing on Mac book.

"Am..Rana sa , wants to talk to you" He said

"Tell him, if he has the same thing to talk, I don't want to talk about it. If it's something else, he's warmly welcomed" I replied

"But Yuvr.. " He was saying when I looked at him and he nodded.

"I'll let Rana sa know" He said and stepped out of the cabin.

As he stepped out I got back to my work.

And as commanded, the legal matters of a deal were solved within forty five minutes with the file of same on my table.

I went through the file and signed the damn deal.

"Get in touch with Shekhawat's and arrange a meeting within two days. And inform them very nicely that I won't tolerate minions. I want Uday Shekhawat here himself. Otherwise, I don't mind tearing the papers signed deal too" I said and Mr. Diwaan nodded.

In the evening, I left for the palace and as the car got parked in the private parking area, the driver opened the door and I stepped out.

"Mr. Diwaan, I needed to discuss some things. Have dinner at palace only and then I need you in the study sharp at 9:00 pm" I commanded and he nodded.

As I went inside the palace, I sighed the drama awaiting for me in the living room.

"Not now dad" I stated before he could speak.

"Not now? Do you see the tone you talk with your father ? Mahima ji , I'm telling you, I'll slap him" Dad angered

"Father, I respect you a lot but that doesn't mean you'll pester me for something I won't tolerate" I stated

"So Yuvraaj Raghav Singh Rathore has grown up so big " He asked

"Oh God. Stop it both of you." Mom snapped at us and we looked at her.

"Pratap ji, Please rest for a while. I'll talk to him" Mom said calmly to dad when he glared me.

"This estate and this virasat needs their King. Just remember that" He said his tone getting a bit softer and I sighed looking at the center table.

As dad went away mom looked at me.

"Two auspicious dates in these three years have passed. Your people need you Yuvraaj. Your dad needs his son. And Mewar Dynasty needs their King. India is Democratic but we Royals still have our duties to fulfill " Mom told and I looked at her.

"Make me King for all I care Maa. But not another personal responsibility" I said and she sighed

"You know that can't happen" She mumbled

"Then you too know, Rajyabhishek (coronation ) can't happen" I said and without waiting for a second more, I left from there to my chamber.

As I went inside the room, I freshened up and changing into simple white chikankari kurta and Payjama, I went towards my daughter's room.

As I knocked on the door, a voice came.

"I'm angry" She said and a small smile came on my lips.

I opened the door and looked at my princess going near her.

She was sitting on her bed while her care taker was reading her bed time story.

As she saw me, she kept the book aside and bowing her head, went outside.

"And what can mend that" I asked sitting on the bed near her.

"May be some chocolates" She said and I raised my brow.

"Your dentist complained of you having cavities" I told and she huffed

"I hate these doctors. They're behind my life" She spoke and I chuckled.

"Megha baisa, your bribes will be taken under consideration but not what you right now wanted to say by twisting the words" I said and she pouted

"Dad, please. I'm good like this. I'm done with doctors and sessions " She muttered

"Did you eat? " I asked changing the topic and she nodded .

"Great. Without dad huh" I spoke showing fake hurt

"I was hungry and daadi (grandmother) fed me" She told and I nodded.

"Then come on. Let's complete the story Princess" I said and resting my head on head board of bed, I read her bed time story.

And with in ten minutes, I felt that little bubble sleeping beside me.

I smiled looking at her and covering her with comforters, I kissed her forehead.

"I love you" I whispered and turning off one of the lamps, I went out.

As I moved towards the dining hall, I looked at everyone else.

Everyone that included Mom, dad, my small brother, his wife and Mr. Diwaan.

I went to sit on my chair and gestured everyone to proceed.

And as dinner completed, Dad asked for me and Mr. Diwaan in study.

"Mr. Diwaan, did you speak to Doctor" Dad asked

"Yes Rana sa , I did. Dr. B. M Nema has suggested one of the doctors and he would talk to her" He replied

"What do you mean talk to her. I thought Dr. Nema was coming" I said

"Yuvraaj, Dr. Nema suggested her. He told, she'll make it happen" Mr. Diwaan told and a bitter chuckle left my mouth.

"Another fake hope? " I asked

"Raghav, let's hope for the best. Who knows this time God hears the solution to our problems" Dad said tapping my shoulder.

"When is she coming? " I asked

"Er.. Yuvraaj. As much I've been told, Dr. Nema would answer this query till tomorrow afternoon" Mr. Diwaan said and I nodded as I looked at the only picture in my study which was kept on the Mahogany table.

My Princess.

Everything I do, everything I live for, she's the reason. I still remember the day I held her in my arms outside the Operation theatre, six years ago.

And now when I look at her, I couldn't get less angry on myself.

It was all fault that she was in this condition.

Only.. Only if I wouldn't have let them go alone, I would've protected them.

And that guilt, it pierced my soul. It pierced me to see my princess like that.

That accident! With time, things become normal of course but for everyone else.

Not me! Not till I see my Princess living actually like a princess.

"Raghav.. " Dad's voice made me come out of trances and I looked at him.

"What about..." I tried hard to speak but couldn't.

But thankfully Mr. Diwaan now knew in these six years what I want to say.

"If the doctor whom Dr. Nema has talked agrees to take the case, she'll take the sessions too for Megha Baisa" He told

"Wait. What do you mean" I asked

"Am, according to the CV and as heard, the doctor is both Physiotherapist as well as child Psychologist " He replied

"From Delhi? " I further enquired to which he nodded.

"If she agrees, I want her history and background checked before she keeps her toe in these premises " I commanded and he nodded

"You may go" I dismissed and he left.

Dad too left after discussing some state issues and then I as usual started working.

Next day, as I was in my cabin at my office, Mr. Diwaan came with a small smile.

"Reason of the curve Mr. Diwaan? " I asked

"The mail is in positive feedback from Dr. Nema. Shall we proceed further Yuvraaj" He asked

"Files of the doctor on my table till 5 pm Mr. Diwaan" I commanded and he nodded when I spoke.

"Who is it Mr. Diwaan" I questioned because I was honestly curious to know.

"Her name is Dr. Janki Singh" He replied

Dr. Janki Singh.

"You may go" I replied and he nodded going away.

As commanded, the file was in my table at 5 in the evening.

And I opened the file going through it completely and then called Mr. Diwaan in.

"Yes Yuvraaj" He asked

"Tell the doctor to start from day after tomorrow." I told and he nodded

"And Mr. Diwaan, make arrangements for doctor's accommodation in palace" I told and dismissed him getting back to my work.
