NARRATOR'S P.O.V
Sun radiated it's soothing heat on the town. After the heavy downpour, it was pretty gratifying and pleasant to receive basking sunrays. The downpour began late in the midnight and continued till early dawn. Nonetheless now the sky was clear off the heavy grey clouds. The plazas and emporiums, were being cleaned and tidied up, obviously for it was the time for the customers to walk in through. The schools and university were slowly thronging with the students. The day was ordinary for the not-so-ordinary peeps of the town, nevertheless all in all, it was fine for them. The warblers flapped their wings and flitted about in the hedge around the Dwaraka paradise, a tiny inn and bar. The preferred spot for all the gossip freaks around the town. The commendable facet of the inn was it had two separate compartments, one for the underage who can't drink while the other the overage who can drink. Lestways it was the preferred destination of all the town people. Currently howbeit in the inn were the town's committee members, Ms Damini and few other alcohol lovers of the town, chatting rather than conversing. Besides there was nothing better to do in this good day, hence gossiping would be the best time killer, opined the townsfolk. And it wouldn't be confounding to assert that their gossip comprised of nothing but the Dark King. And it is precisely not apprehended that why do they keep on loathing and afearing the handsome beast when he has not done anything frightful or violent in so many days. All he does is stay inside his castle with his queen, sporadically coming out to tour his territory and that too without injuring any human or fauna. Besides hardly he leaves the castle for he altogether knows that how many hawks are lurking in the world to grab any opportunity to steal glimpses of his beautiful queen. Perhaps this too was a matter of contempt for the townsfolk for the men of the town felt that they saw that beauty first and should've been them to have her not him. Sadly who has the valour and courage to say it on the face of the feared Dark King, unless you wish to die.
Inside one of the ordinary guest rooms of the castle, stood the king and queen. The king as expected gazing at her with all his love and obsession, while she carried out some chores which included choosing the mattress covers, duvets and the pillow covers from the huge heap in front of her. The guest rooms were on the ground floor of the castle as the King abhorred any guest or person in particular to be in his proximity, therefore he made sure that all his guest rooms are built on the ground floor while the upper floors are only for him and his queen. The guest stopping at the castle was rare, or perhaps something which had ne'er took place since the castle was built. Nonetheless a cultivated King's castle needs to possess the guest rooms and although our King was far from cultivated nonetheless was a King and hence his castle had guest rooms. Currently the mighty King stood behind his little queen, watching endearmently her choice of the articles. It was in the early morn when sharanya resolved to give a look to the guest rooms and found the usual articles not precisely chosen, hence she took the matters into her own hands and presently was herself picking up the items of the guest rooms.
"How's this!!!! " she asked stretching a floral bedsheet. The King smiled.
"Whatever you'll choose will be beautiful!!!! " he said from behind. She huffed, he'd been responding with the same thing since past 15 minutes.
"You're confusing me now!!!! " she said piqued as she searched for another one, while the king chuckled. For another few minutes, he continued staring at her bewildered figure but than something bizzare took place inside him. He felt a pang in his ribs as if someone has kicked him. He placed his hand on his abdomen and grinded his teeth together. After that his whole body began to ache and his mind was slowly going heavy and dizzy. He tried to bear the pain but his condition worsened when he felt losing his balance. He knew he couldn't take this any longer hence parted his lips to call her as she had her back turned to him.
"Shar.......anya......!!!" he called her with difficulty. She instantly felt the pain and difficulty in his voice and swung round, facing him. She gasped as she found him hunched, hand placed over the abdomen and looking in excruciating pain. She ran to him and held him by both of his arms to keep him from falling.
"Mr Singhala!!!!! Are you ok!!! " she asked anxiously as she arduously kept him on his place. His eyes were closing on their own and his body was losing balance.
"Please don't......leave me.......sharanya!!!! " he mumbled pretty softly but she heard him lestways. She applied all her strength and began to drag him to bed, even in his drowsy and pathetic state he tried to help her as much as his body permitted him to. At last she was able to take him to the bed, she softly laid him down and sat beside him, cupping his face.
"What has happened Mr Singhala!!!! Please tell me!!!! " she asked as tears brimmed in her eyes, she wasn't able to see him like this, it hurted her. His lips moved in a rhythmic manner to speak but his energy seemed to be drained out from his body.
"Shara..........nya.............don't........leave me!!!!! " he pleaded as he struggled to keep his eyes open. She wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning her head against his, sniffling lowly.
"No I won't leave you, Mr Singhala!!! I promise, I won't leave you!!!! " she sniffled as she softly caressed his face. He was slowly losing the battle with the confounded drowsiness and he knew he will have to ultimately give in.
"Sharanya..........Sharanya.........!!!!" he mumbled as his eyes fluttered for one last time before closing completely. She gaped as she tried to wake him up but apparently he was asleep, and she was scared. Abruptly she saw him transforming into the beast. She wiped her tears as she realised her crying won't be of any help and she needed to ask the omegas about what possibly must've happened to the Dark King. She turned her head to the door and parted her lips to yell for omega 34 but before she could, the door burst open and rushed in omega 34, in the same state as the Dark King before falling to deep sleep. She gasped as she saw her dishevelled condition.
"Omega 34........!!!" she was stopped by omega 34 in the midst, staggering her.
"Queen I apologise for stopping you!!!! But I don't have much time left!!!! Today is the day when Lord was cursed and so we all were!!! Hence for the whole day presently, he will keep sleeping and so will be the entire castle.!!!! Please I beg you, don't step out of the castle, please!!!! There is no one in the castle who can protect you today, not even the Lord!!!!! Please........!!!!" she fell on the ground before completing her statement, nevertheless she slept after spilling all the important things to her. Howbeit it took her few minutes to apprehend the situation and what she said obviously, and when she did she gasped. In a moment, the entire castle had become pin drop silent with no ghost of sound whatsoever. She was frightened although as in such a big castle, she's all alone with no one to protect her. She wholeheartedly wished for this day to end really soon.
"Don't worry Mr Singhala!!! I'm with you!!! " she whispered as she wrapped his arm over his tummy and placed her head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat and very soft snores which she was downright certain will metamorphose into the snores of an old man.
In the Dwaraka paradise, Mr Suri, Mr Tripathi and other fellow natives alongside Ms Damini sat sipping on the vodka. Vodka is a great warm therapy in the cold places and so was pretty renowned in the town. Although in India not many women are alcohol lovers or simply drinkers, town was also not exception and hence was pretty low in the rankings of female alcoholics. Excluding Ms Damini who in sooth was a better drinker than majority of the male population in town. The inn was gleeful and zestful, the alcoholics were over the moon as one quarter of the Chivas Regal had already been swilled down the tummy; and following the empty quarters of the premium scotches, begins the debate over the concerns of the country and the world which were previously not into notice. The chain goes from the economy to Prime Minister and subsequently to America and Russia and then ultimately winding up in 'The entire world is motherf*****'. This inn was also not devoid of those self proclaimed economists and hence currently the same debate was taking place inside the inn.
"Partition wasn't right Suri!!!! Gandhiji should've come up with some other plan, dividing the country isn't a good thing!!!! " said Mr Murli fully sloshed, eyes drowsy and butt seemed to be scooting away from the chair. Mr Suri smirked, he was a pretty good drinker.
"Leave it Triphathi!!! It has been more than 70 years.!!! Besides who knows what circumstances prevailed at that time!!!! " Mr Suri kept his statement. Mr Triphathi as usual was bound to object but before he could, somebody rushed inside the bar and the heads were turned to the panting figure, which happened to be of the priest. They furrowed their brows.
"Pandit ji!!!! Is everything ok!!! " asked Ms Damini, keeping her cocktail on the bar. The priest panted for a moment.
"I've received an important news!!!! The Dark King and his castle has slept just for today!!!!! I don't exactly know why!!! But it's our chance, let's send him back to a sleep for another 10,000 years!!" said priest panting. All the sloshes and drowsiness flew away on this news, and rose they all. They'll were happy, but not more than Mr Suri.
"That's a great news!!!! " he smirked lasciviously as his thoughts went to that beautiful girl immured inside the castle. He can finally have her, and with her being way younger than him made him think he can easily dominate her.
"Let's hurry already!!!! " said Ms Damini a bit anxiously. They nodded.
"But no one touches sharanya!!! She's mine!!!! Understand!!! " he made it clear.
"You can do whatever you want with that girl!!!! But we need to handle that beast first!!! " said Ms Damini as they all kept their half empty tumblers on the bar and left the bar to tackle the Dark Lord.
Sharanya laid beside the beast, hugging him tightly. She had not slept yet and with the realisation of being all alone in the castle, didn't let her sleep either. But she was not leaving the Dark King, that was certain for she nohow wanted to part from him. After all she precisely knows that nobody on this earth can love her more than him and he won't let anyone either ways, for she is his and she has altogether accepted that. She sighed as she mused about both of them. Abruptly the sound of smashing of the front door of the castle, reached her eyes snapping her musing. She shuddered and gasped as she sprang out of the bed and quietly made a run for the room's door. She softly clicked it open and peeped through the small gap to find a whole mob of the town's folk marching towards the staircase, to head for their room obviously. She gasped as it didn't took her much time to put one and one together, she knew that by some obscured means they'd come to know that he's sleeping and so is the whole castle with him. She was certain they must have came to hurt him or in extreme, cursing him back to sleep. She gasped as she ran to him and started thinking of any means to escape the natives. The Dark King was undeniably hefty so it was pretty out of the question to pull him up and drag him to a secret spot, she isn't going to leave him alone that was also certain. So after all the possibilities of escape seemed to fail, she only saw one possibility, the God. Hence she started praying to the God to save her beast from the hands of the natives. In another minute, she heard footsteps nearing the room they were in, freaking her more. She sobbed as she prayed to the God to save him. And than the door of her room burst open and incame the furious natives, sloshed for the liquor stench was diffusing in the ambience. She gasped, frightened as she hugged her beast tightly.
"Get away girl!!!! We have some business with this beast!!! " said Ms Damini viciously, glaring daggers at the girl clinging to the beast. She shook her head, tears falling down her pretty eyes. Mr Suri was furious, 'Has she started loving him' was the question surfacing in his heart.
"What are you waiting for, attack!!!! " yelled Mr Murli and they all marched towards them while the poor girl just sobbed, not leaving the side of the beast. Howbeit when they were a good six feet away from them, confoundingly the earth started to quake violently, shaking the bed and the pupils inside. They all were puzzled, must be the uncertain earthquake, they reckoned. But it must be Ms Damini who saw the cracks developing on the ground as she was the first one to shriek and grab the attention of the rest. They'll stiffened at her shriek and looked down to find the ground splitting into two. Sharanya was scared but not ready to leave her beast. Nonetheless the split was only confined to two feet away from the bed, manifesting no harm to her and her beast. But the shock of the splitting of the ground was evident in her eyes and so were the rest. For a few seconds everything was still but than a loud screech reached into theirs ears making them shield their ears, and than a beastly hand appeared from under the split, placing than on the right. And than another hand. For a moment they all were rigid but than a vicious growl came from the spilt and in no time a devil with horns and claws for nails appeared from the split. The pupils were freaked to the core and were horrified more when the monster a bit taller than the beast lying on the bed, growled furiously. They'll tried to make for a run but the devil was quick enough to grab them and hurl them in the furrow from which he emerged. One by one the screaming drunkards were inside the furrow, for a vague moment there shrieks were audible but than after that nothing. It all happened too fast that sharanya got no time to apprehend anything but she was certain that the future assaulters were dead. The devil than turn towards her and her breath hitched for she felt that he will do the same thing with both of them, hence she hugged the sleeping beast more tighter.
"No one escapes from the law of hell!!! " he yelled and the instant he did the thunder striked, scaring the poor girl more. She gasped as she found him marching towards her, she shut her eyes and waited for his forceful impact but rather than the impact, there felt an affectionate stroke on the crown of her head. She looked up perplexed, to find the devil softly patting her head. He was pretty close to her so much that she found the colour of his eyes similar to that of the Dark King's eyes that is turquoise green. She was puzzled and bewildered, but the devil sensed that and decided to answer her unasked questions.
"In our realm, younger brother is loved as a son and his wife as a daughter.!!! You're my daughter!!! " his voice though husky enough to scare the shit out of any one but for her it was rather smooth and affectionate. She at once knew why both of them were similar.
"You are his brother!!! " she asked as a lone tear escaped her eye. He nodded as he softly caressed his younger brother's face, she could tell the pain in his eyes when he did so.
"My child!!! Their are many morons humans on this earth who might try to harm you both!!! He'll wake up tomorrow but will get all his powers back day after tomorrow!!!! You both'll have to stay in a safe place until then!!! " he said and she nodded with no scruple.
"Close your eyes!!! " he asked and she acquiescently followed.
When she was asked to open her eyes, they were in the midst of thick jungle. All she could see was canopy of tall trees and a small cottage right in front. The beast was asleep on the bed which his brother courteously dragged with them to not make his brother feel any sort of discomfort.
"Go in!!! You'll be safe here!!! " he said with a smile, and it was pretty rare to find the hell's ruler to smile. She smiled back.
"Thank you and can you please help me bring him in!!!! I mean I can't drag him in!!! " she faltered and he chuckled.
"Why not my child!!! " he said and in a moment they both were inside in a sort of a magic. She chuckled and looked outside the window to find him gone. She knew he was the ruler of hell and must've tons of duties, hence didn't feel bad for not saying him thank you properly. Nonetheless beast was safe, that's all mattered to her. She smiled and made her way to the bed.
"I'll never leave you!!! " she promised as she hugged him tightly, falling to a peaceful sleep.
