"Baba, Do stars always look this beautiful?" A little tanirika asked her father. 

"Stars always look the same Tani", A little lekha giggled nuzzling to the left shoulder of the king Tanya.

"No, sometimes some stars shine brighter than others" She argued.

"When the stars see that their loved ones are happy on the earth they signal their happiness by shining brighter, my daughters" The king smiled caressing both of his daughters head who smiled softly in their father's embrace.

"Baba, I get so lonely when you leave me" A little tanirika pouted.

"Me too Baba. Me too"

King Tanya smiled at both his daughters before answering their question.

"We all reside under the same moon. The moon never leaves it is always in the sky. When you miss me look at the sky. After all we all watch the same moon. "

"Look at the sky means looking at baba" lekha sighed.

"No silly, Looking at the moon means. Experiencing the warmth Baba sent to the moon for us. The moon will send our baby's warmth back to us , Right baba" Tanirika asked.

The king chuckled hugging his daughters closer to his body. After all they both were his world.

He silently gazed at the stars silently conveying his lone thoughts to his lover.

"Look my love, I am fulfilling my duties alone. I am fulfilling the promises I made to you. You will always be alive in my thoughts and memories. The only motive of this life is just Tanirika, my wife. It's just our daughter. And I would give my whole life for her. "

"Baba, Where are you lost?" Tanirika asked.

"Silly girl, Baba is talking to maa" Lekha giggled.

"Oh! You can talk to her baba"

"I pour my thoughts and relive the memories My love. I know she is hearing him"

"Well, that's so boring. How is this a conversation if the other person does not reply. "

"You will understand this one day! My love you will understand this"

Zravasaya stared at the woman sitting infront him on a messed up bed. There was a iron chain clocked around her wrist tied to the pole near the bed. 

"Wasn't he married to her" He asked Ionia moving his gaze away from the woman who was shooting daggers at him. Well, The feeling was mutual. 

" He is or he is not. I have no idea. One moment he says this gorgeous woman is his wife and other he says he is not. "

"Well! That's new coming from loki"

Ionia smiled looking at the woman who gave her a weird look. One thing she learned since last few days in Ionia's presence was something wrong with the foreign woman.

"I told him to teach her father a lesson not to kidnap this woman. What am I supposed to do with her" 

"Leave me and let me go then . Finally a sensible person around me"

Zravasaya glared at her making her shut her mouth.

"What was your name again? "

"You don't even remember my name? So high you to be a king"

" I only remember important things and people. The only thing I remember is you degrading the QUEEN of Rakshatra who you befriended and then got angry because she won and You lost. So coward of you" Anger bubbled inside her head after hearing his venom laced voice. She tried to move away from the bed only to get pulled back because of the chain attatched to her wrists. 

"I never intended to win. All I wanted was a chance to kill you. And the queen you are so proud of intended the same. "

"Oh! The pleasure of dying with the hands of the person you love. Sadly you cannot experience that. Because -"

"Shut up! You killer Just shut up" She shouted like a mad woman. Stretching her hands to hit him. Zravasaya smirked criminally adding more salt to her wounds. Angry tears cascaded down her cheeks as sobs left her aching heart. 

"Princess Jigansa, Save your tears you have to cry more in near future" He moved out the room leaving her messed self alone in that room.

Ionia followed Zravasaya out after shutting the door of the abducted princess. 

"Your are so cruel"

"I thought I was the devil"

"You turned into an angel. But why did you not kill her" She smirked.

"Loki has told me to keep her safe. Her life is important. When she becomes irrelevant we could kill her. "

"Well if he is married to her then she needs to be kept alive"

"Only if he does not kill her"  They both laughed with the darkness lurking in their eyes. They were demonically evil and they loved each passing second of it.

"I need to travel back to the army. They are waiting for me. This woman is your responsibility. Until further orders take care of her and Ionia, Do not I mean Do not play your stupid games on her. Stay away" He warned.

Ionia pouted throwing a pillow towards one of the corners of the room. Men were no fun.

"I can't even have fun"

"This woman can change the future occurrences. So she needs to be untouched. Once everything is done you can play with her. Not that I care"

He rolled his eyes moving out of the place.

Zravasaya traveled back to his army resting near the mountain. He gazed at his people indulged in their own work. General Dorian left the ongoing conversations with few soldiers and ran after the king once he spotted him.

"How's everything going on, here?"

"Akeem and Jamal have arrived they have some information. The spy we sent has delivered some information. And my king, Master junious has left for the palace." His voice turned dangerously slow while uttering the last sentence.

"Why did he leave?"

His question was met with a helpless blank expression indicating something was terribly wrong. Loki's letter rang in his ears. The trap of kingdoms was started. And things were going to be malicious.

Zravsaya entered the military tent with General Dorian following him. The tent fell silent at his arrival. Bowing graciously at the king the men scattered around respectively waiting for their turn to speak.

"Update me, Jamal. " Jamal stepped forward flashing a quick look at Dorian he started informing certain things to the king.

"We have gathered information regarding shamsherkhan. He is not someone who we should trust. He dodges wars and him forwarding his hand to face a war against kingdom of jagnya with you is very suspicious.  "

"I agree with my brother, your majesty. The sultan of Arab has advised you to step back from helping this snake. He has asked you to leave shamsherkhan for the Persian sultan. The news have arrived from Persia that the first prince will soon revenge bilalpur. " Akeem added.

"Why is Persia getting into matters of a smaller kingdom?"  One of the trusted men in the tent asked.

"Shamsherkhan killed all his 13 brothers and father to get the throne. And to overpass and press the people of bilalpur he married his own sister. The princess Ayma was promised to the Second Persian prince. They were promised to each other at the mere age of 4. Shamsherkhan married princess Ayma without her will. And the deceased queen of bilalpur was the cousin of king of Persia. He wants revenge. And he will get it. He wants us to step back and let them handle their revenge. "  Akeem informed.

"We have not promised shamsherkhan anything. But we have to play our cards against Jagnya. Send a letter to Persia with the royal seal. We will handover the person who has wronged them. Rakshatra will never support the wrong people. " Zravasaya ordered.

"There is one more thing which is confusing my king"  Akeem chided.

"And what it is" He asked moving the glass of water away from his mouth.

"There are very less number of soldiers spotted in the army of Jagnya which has arrived to fight against bilalpur. That is not  even half of the jagnya army. Why would thee king send such a small troop against bilalpur whixh is stronger in military power. "

"This whole war is a scam. "  Akeem muttered glancing at dorian. Zravasaya didn't miss the silent conversation between them and raised an eyebrow at dorian initiating him to explain.

"He sent a bigger army. But yesterday half of the army turned back. We thought this was some of his strategy maybe he got scared witnessing our army joining bilalpur. But few hours ago there was a message-" Dorian glanced at the king who was hearing him attentively. He was scared. Well he was scared. The news which arrived from the kingdom of Rakshatra was unpleasant.

"Complete your sentence Dorian" Zravasaya ordered.

"The queen and meglos traveled outside the kingdom of Rakshatra to perform one of the rituals and our spies have informed that they were kidnapped. "

"Repeat it!" Zravasaya lurked dangerously. Dorian gulped without lifting his eyes. He repeated.

"Meglos and -"

"Not meglos what did you say about my queen "  He asked.

" The queen was abducted. " The pot sitting idly on one of the tables was crashed down In a swift second. Men standing near him withdrew few steps back as anger surfaced inside him.

"The letter arrived today that means she got kidnapped three days ago. And none of you were fast enough to take actions. " He barked in anger.

"We have trained birds who are faster than any other source of communication in the whole hind and you receive this information three days late. Did you guys forget who I am? What is she to me! Your queen gets kidnapped right under the nose of one of the strongest warrior and jagnya army withdraws back . Are you all this dumb to not connect the dots? The liquor and drugs have slacked you guys behind. "

"We have sent the troops to search for the queen, My king. Master Junious has traveled back too. "

"Not troops alert our spies. I want update in next few hours. Otherwise you all can go to hell. "  He ordered slamming the table with a thud.

"The kingdom is unguarded. There is no one responsible to take care of it. Years of hardwork will go in vain. Send birds to increase the security of the kingdom. The news of disappearance of the queen should not reach the ears of the malovent people residing in the kingdom. "

A soldier frantically entered the tent making zravasaya snap his anger at him. The soldier crouched down and forwarded a arrow which had a letter attatched to it.

"This came from the other side my king" He whispered with a scary tone.

Dorian grabbed the letter and started reading it.

Too bad to be webbed in the lies of the kingdoms, The great king of Rakshatra. You have lost the Queen. And your dear friend who you sent to kill me in my own kingdom. You have left your kingdom unguarded. The kingdom holding the other 26 kingdoms together. The throne is deserted.  And soon I will claim it. I invite you to fight this in the ground let's fight this between you and me. And sorry to inform you shamsherkhan is on my side.

If you think to surrender you could save your wife. She is indeed beautiful to gaze on. Too bad she is broken enough to mourn her dead father. 

Your dearest King of jagnya. "

"It has the seal of both bilalpur and kingdom of Jagnya, my king"  Dorian glanced at the letter then at Zravasaya.

Zravasaya's face held a blank expression but his eyes told a different story. A tornado of emotions was running behind those eyes. The devil was awaken. And it was hungry for blood.

I hope you have her safe with you loki. Otherwise I will kill you all.
