Ruhani POV

I woke up early today without anyone's help.

As the state of my mind was not seeming on line as I was feeling really restless with the fact that he must be waiting for me.

It was early morning and the thought started suffocating me. I stepped down the bed and opened the curtains to my bedroom.

The sun was about to rise and I decided to do my morning businesses now.

After getting ready for the day, I took out a book as books make me feel calm down.

I lied on the bed, opening the book and started reading.

I got indulge in the spritual material as I didn't hear Nandani calling.

"Ruhani,"

She called and I noticed her.

I sat up instantly and she complaints.

"I called you three times. Why are you busy?"

She asked snatching the book and I turned my gaze to the window. It was late morning as the sunrays was falling into the chamber.

I turned my sight back to her and shook my face telling 'Nothing'

"Okay, the henna artist arrived already. Everyone is waiting for you,"

She said and I smiled widely.

The arrival of Henna artist only made me feel happy again. I turned excited all of sudden.

Woah! It was my Mehndi day. I remembered how everyone was so worried last time on my Mehndi as on this day my father sent him the letter regarding my muteness because he believed that he was unaware of the fact.

But, today it was my day!

I nodded looking at Nandani and she took me to the celebration hall. My sight fell on everyone as the gents got ready in the white attire while the ladies were in light green.

I smiled looking at them and they asked me to sit in the middle.

"So,"

Nandani started.

"Today, each one of us is going to apply henna and the catch is every has write their husbands names,"

Everyone chuckled and I remembered how last time the henna artist forgot to write Sultan's name over my hand.

"Okay, Ruhani,"

Nandani looked at me and I smiled nodding.

Then, everyone sat and the henna started. There were a dance performance arranged by the popular tribal artists and it started along.

The henna artist was very talented as she created small and different patterns on my hand and it was looking beautiful.

I wasn't wearing any bangles to help her easily do her business. She applied the henna till the middle of my lower arm.

And, she started with my legs.

I looked at Nandani who was also sitting along a henna artist and doing same.

Suddenly, Haider came and sat next to me.

His face little worried and I looked at him shifting a little.

I thinned my eyebrows with the weak smile and he looked at the henna artist who was the only person able to hear our talks.

I shook my head to not care about her and asked him about what happened.

He placed his head on my shoulder and started muttering slowly.

"I don't know how to tell you but I have done a terrible mistake,"

My heart beats raced and I tried to look at him. But, he avoided the eye contact and continued.

"I met a girl during the last war,"

My eyebrows thinned But I didn't react.

"She was the girl of the other Sultanate with which we were fighting. And, because I was the commander of the army. He came into my tent at night. I got the hints that she was women of other Sultanate and doubt her to be venomous girl or scout. And, I tied her inside my tied with mouth closed. Whole night she was like that crying and trying to say something. Her eyes also turned red with anger but I didn't let her go and when in the morning the second in command reached with the news. I get to know that the princess of that Sultanate was missing. Then, I doubted if she was the same. I opened her mouth and she spoke the same,"

He straightened himself and then looked at me with the teary eyes.

"His father got the news and believed that she... I mean she stayed with me... in the night. I hope you understand and then he left her all alone. Abandoned,"

My eyes turned teary now.

"I don't know Ruhani but I just ruined her life. She just came to protect her Sultanate. She came to request me and I didn't even listen to her,"

A tear fell from his eyes and I asked signalling him.

'Where is she now?"

His voice turned hoarse and he muttered slowly shaking his head.

"I don't know but she is missing. I am afraid for her,"

My heartbeats were racing insanely but I told him to calm down and have faith in the God. Everything would be all right.

Well, I was a firm believer of God. Our worry could hardly change anything but we should have faith inthe creator. The one who had made all this would protect and operate all this. Our role I consider in the life was the protection of humanity and serve the human kind and nature to the best way possible. Because, for me the world works according to the energies. The supply of positive energy would bring power into you and the supply of negetive energy would bring difficulties.

And, I just had to supply the positivity to him.

'Dont worry, she will be fine and you must find her to protect'

He nodded and I smiled weakly.

He smiled back a little and muttered.

"You must enjoy your day,"

He said and left me.

Honestly, I turned worried but there was a believe in me for my brother that relieved me a little.

"Ruhani, how much left?"

I shivered suddenly when my attention was caught by Nandani. She was looking at my henna and I looked at my legs which were almost done.

She sat with me and we talked until it was done.

My heart was missing my husband even more now. I didn't know but we had that bonding of talking in silence.

I didn't know how it happened but I started feeling safe around him and now I wanted to see him only.

I was missing the night we slept together peacefully. His warm solace sent peace in me.

I signed when the artist was done with my henna and then I was asked to take rest in my chamber.

It was almost evening by the time everyone was done and we all retired to our chambers after dinner. Rehman Bhaijaan fed me food with love.

He was like father figure to me. After my father as a Sultan I respected him.

His life was not like petals of roses but a bed of thorns. And, he was a true King for me.

After he was done feeding me food. He kissed my forehead and asked me to sleep well.

I lied on the bed with the henna inked hands carefully keeping them away from the bed and slept as I was really tired.

Suddenly, I felt a hand around my waist and the skin a little rough. The hand was wide and strong against my small and soft curve.

I breathed deeply and then a warm naked chest sent comfortable sensations to my body.

I shifted a little in the deep sleep and felt the slightly wet and warm lips against my skin. Butterflies erupted in my stomach as he kissed me lightly on my skin. The comforter and the warm feeling brought sweat across my neck and then I felt the long fingers moving to the waist band of my lower.

He swiftly pulled the knot and I breathed deeply. His butterfly kisses sent shiver down my spine along with the his finger lightly getting inside of my lower.

I pressed my thighs together and arched my head back as he featherly touched my core.

I shivered with the effect and he leaned into my neck. His lips started sucking my neck and I moaned in breathe.

My hand fisted the bedsheet with the effect and I didn't realise when I parted my thighs to give him the space.

I felt his finger on the dangerous zone and felt his finger slightly making circle there. Once, twice and then thrice.

The strong wave of sensations ran into my body and I woke up breathing insanely.

I moved my eyes from here and there controlling my heartbeats and realised it was a nightmare. He wasn't there.

I tried to calm down and my eyebrows thinned not believing why I saw such kind of nightmare. What was he doing? I mean, it was so shameful and wrong.

Why my heartbeats raced like it. And moreover, why did I like it. I mean not really but it didn't feel wrong either in the mind.

Was it literally a nightmare or a dream?

But, why?

I mean he didn't love me. Why wasn't I able to control and why the hell I saw such kind of dream. It felt wrong. I knew he was my husband but still he didn't have that kind of feelings for me. Or neither I was expecting it.

But, then those kiss. I remembered the kiss and that mark he made when I left.

Was it just for fun or he had something for me?

I got up from the bed and walked to the mirror.

My chest was doing up and down with heaving breathing and cheeks red like tomatoes.

I looked at my dark inked hands and then feet. I gulped thinking what would happen if he would see me like this.

The mere thought only made me close my eyes and I tried to relax. He would not come. He clearly said no to come.

I opened my eyes and the walked back to the bed.

The dream vanished my sleep and I was in deep and scary thoughts until the morning. The excitement now turned into the fear and nervousness. Nandani said she would do something to bring him here and I had to stop her. He would be so angry and if he would be angry. I had to face something like that only.

I waited until the sun rise and then walked quickly towards the Nandani's chamber.

The attendees outside her chamber allowed me get in and I saw her sitting on the bed with a exciting smile.

She noticed me with my ankle bells and then looked at me.

"Ruhani, everything okay?"

She asked and I shook my head quickly.

"What happened?"

She asked and I quickly told her everything. She thinned her eyebrows carefully understanding everything.

I finished and waited for her reaction but to my surprise she laughed.

I held her hand and asked the reason of this laugh.

She laughed even more and then muttered.

"Sorry Ruhani, I already did what was supposed to be done. If he cares for you, he would be here by evening. I guess,"

She said and I pressed my hands against my head.

My fingers trembling and she placed her hand on my shoulder and said.

"He is your husband. You shouldn't be afraid just because a wet dream,"
