ABDUCTION

The darkest room in the palace and in the middle of it there was the throne of Yakshapur, in which a figure was sitting spreading his arms. His both hands were resting over the arms of the throne while his eyes were fixed at some particular direction. His eyes were blazing fire while his jaw were clenched tightly. He was King Rudravan whom the people of Yakshapur called Kaal, The God of Death.

He was in his own world when a man came into his room with his trembling figure.

"K_King!"

His ears had already caught the presence but he didn't glance towards the man. His eyes were in his previous place.

"T_The baby is n_no more!"

Hearing the words Rudravan clutched the dagger in his palm tightly as some drops of blood spread over the floor.

"And f_forgive us! W_We couldn't save Q_Queen N_Nayantara! The p_poison had already s_spread through her whole b_body"

As soon as the words came from his mouth, he got up from his place and left from there. The fire of revenge on his eyes were too dangerous that whoever was coming on his way to stop him either was getting hurt or was moving away immediately.

"RUDRA, STOP!" His mother Chandravati came on his way but he heard none.

"RUDRA!" She yelled when his feet stopped as she came running and held his arms.

"Listen to me first! You have to do the last rights of hers. You can't go anywhere before that"

"I won't do the last rights of Tara before finishing all of them. None will touch her until I come back" Rudravan said with determination and continued.

"Hridaynagar ki mahal ko Rakht Ganga banane ki bad hi hum wapas lautenge. Kisiko bhi jeevit nehi chodenge hum!" (I'll turn the palace of Hridaynagar into the pool of blood. I'll not leave anyone alive)

Saying that he rode on his horse and left the palace with the speed of wind.

In the palace of Hridaynagar there was a girl who was sleeping peacefully on the silk mattress. She was the princess of Hridaynagar, Anamika. Suddenly her palms got sweaty and her brows raised as she started moving in her bed feeling too much uneasy.

"AAAAAA!" She suddenly got up while shouting as the maids came running hearing her shouts.

"Princess?"

Without hearing anything Anamika got up hurriedly and went to look outside searching for someone but none was there.

"What happened Anu?"

She heard her sister-in-law's voice as she hugged her tightly.

"Are you fine, Bhabi?"

"Yes, I'm but what happened to you?"

"I just saw_!"

Anamika's face because horrified as she was fearfully checking her again and again.

"Maybe it was a bad dream, Anu!" Sulakshana assured with her calm smile.

"I can't sleep, Bhabi. It was so horrible" She said with frustration.

Hearing her Sulakshana took her head in her lap and started caressing her hairs.

"Now try to sleep"

Anamika slowly closed her eyes getting the comfort and finally lost in the deep slumber.

~โƒ~

Rudravan entered the palace of Hridaynagar without any warning and started searching King Suryaveer's chamber while his guards were trying to stop him but like the Yama's wish. They had to loss their lives.

Within some moments he turned the whole palace into red. Some drops of blood were splashed on his face and his hands while he marched towards his room.

"SURYAVEER SINGH!" He growled when the man who was sitting on his armchair looked at him with only hatred in his eyes.

"I was waiting for you only!" Suryaveer smirked gazing at him.

"Jang ka ahelan karne koi khud chal ke aya hai!" (Someone has came to give the news of war himself)

"Jang to bohot pehle hi chhid chuki thi bas rakht ki pyas bujhane aye hai!" (War had already started, now I've came here to quench my thirst for blood)

In a blink, Rudravan threw the dagger in his direction before he could do anything making a red line on his neck as the person fell on the ground.

Rudravan wiped his face and went towards another room while ending the lives of each and everyone.

~โƒ~

"Maharani, Rajkumari jaldi chaliye yahase!" (Queen, Princess let's go from here right now)

They heard the panick voice of their maid who was heavily breathing while trembling in fear.

"What happened, Parul?" Anamika asked getting up from the bed and came near her who was looking so tensed.

"H_He has came" The horror was clearly visible in her voice after seeing those dead bodies.

"Unhone Maharaj ko mar diya!" (He has killed the king)

As soon as the words came from her mouth Sulkashana sat on the floor with a thud. The shock was too much as Anamika blinked her eyes sometimes to gather her courage back while her tears were already flowing.

"He is coming this way. Please go from here first" Parul said shaking with fear.

Anamika stood stiff for a moment but then controlled herself from bursting out in tears. She had to save them.

"Bhabi uthiye. Ye waqt ansu bahane ka nehi hai. Aap Abhimanyu aur Prakriti ko leke pichle darwaze se nikal jaiye jaldi se" (Get up sister-in-law. This time is not for mourning. You please go from here with Abhimanyu and Prakriti from the back door)

"Hum unhe dekhna chahte hai ekbar!" (I wanna see him once)

Sulakshana cried loudly.

"Bhabi pehle un dono ko bachaiye! Jaiye! Nehi to hum unhe bhi kho denge" (Please save them first sister-in-law or we will loss them too)

Anamika literally forced her to go to her chamber to wake up her son and daughter who were sleeping peacefully without any worries as she did the same.

"Rajkumari aap bhi jaldi chaliye!" (Princess, please come fast)

"No Parul. I can't"

"What?"

"This is my home, my palace. I can't go anywhere like a coward"

"What are you saying, Princess? He won't show any mercy to you" Parul added trying to convince her but her face wasn't showing any emotion.

"Hum e mrityu ka bhay nehi!" (I don't fear for death)

"Mrityu bohot saral hai Rajkumari. Lekin agar aap jeevit rehe gayi to woh aap ke sath kya kya kar sakte hai aap janti hai" (Death is easier but if you stay alive then you know what he can do with you)

"If this is my fate. Then I accept it" Anamika chuckled sarcastically.

"Why aren't you understanding princess. You can't win against him. How much time you'll continue it" Parul tried to make her understand.

"I won't accept my defeat until death" She declared as the rage was clear in her voice and with that she pulled her dagger which was under her bedsheet.

Suddenly their trance broke as they heard some shoutings and came to see a man who had entered into their room with a dagger full of blood in his hand. He was wearing a black kurta with black trousers underneath and in allover his body there was blood. His eyes were dark brown and there was only fire in his eyes which could burn anyone live.

Anamika moved from her place and before he could harm anymore people, she stood in front of him.

Rudravan looked at her while she looked back at her orbs. Both were trying to intimidate eachother by their appearance but none was backing off.

He slowly took some steps towards her but she didn't move back from her place a little. He was badly wanting to see the fear in her eyes, to hear her beggings for her life but no, here she was giving him death threat looking straight into his eyes.

"If you try to come near anyone of us, I'll kill you!" She gritted her teeth angrily raising her dagger towards him as he frowned her eyebrows seeing her daring act.

"Don't you dare!" Anamika warned him but he only came forward.

Her mind went mad as she angrily rotate the dagger and hit him but he already defended himself with his arm.

Rudravan rotated her holding her arm and now the dagger was on her neck.

"None dares to do this and none ever will be" He announced and she hit him with her elbow while nonstop struggling in his grip.

Getting a chance she bit on his mascular arm so dangerous that he removed himself from her.

Lifting her lehenga she started running towards the door to close it as a small smirk appeared on his lips. He threw the dagger behind her as it stucked on the long piece of her lehenga making her stop.

Anamika looked back and hurriedly tried to remove it but before she could free herself he came near her and putting her over his shoulder he started leaving from there while his one hand was working on the people who were coming on his way to save their princess.

Tying her hands and legs he sat on the horse and left from there towards his palace taking her with him.
