Urvashi's Pov :

I will get what i want,

Secretly trying to slip away from this place, I took a few steps back, endeavoring to not get noticed, all the womens were occupied in gossiping and chatting, could they not go back to their chambers…. It's irritating !!

Eventually I managed to escape and headed for the place I told Shekhar to meet me. It's good that most of the soldiers have gone hunting or else I would have been caught by now.

When I was hidden from the people's sight, I darted to the South without looking back.

I spotted Shekhar concealed behind a tree, he was peering from the side of it. At once I rushed to the tree and cloaked myself with nature, panting hard, clutching my stomach which was aching, a thesis of running. My expression crunched a bit which scared the hell out of Shekhar as he started freaking out and kept muttering that now he will die and it was a bad idea to come her ….we should go back, I groaned between some inhales.

After feeling my nerves going back to regular, I denied

“ Shekhar I was not able to breath because i was running too fast, there is nothing to fear and we are not going back, we will go to that place at any cost, no one is backing out now, you took an oath to help and follow my rules yet i have treated you like that so it’s your turn to imply as i command and wish.” he sulked palming his face,

And cried,

“ Why do you not understand Rajkumari Sa ? Bhai Sa will kill me if he gets to know about all this, he will definitely throw me before hungry lions and clap on my misery.” my brows furrowed, tilting my head at him
And blurted,

“ Whose Bhai Sa ?” hand which was rubbing his eyes stiffened,

He cleared his throat and alleged,

“ I was talking about your Bhai Sa, and you know that very well what will he do to me Rajkumari Sa, there is a high probability of me being dead today,” why is he afraid like i am forcing him on a suicide mission, shaking my head in disbelieve,

I noticed that he carrying satchel with him, i wondered

“ Why do you have this satchel with you, Shekhar… we are just going to have a look of that place not for a sightseeing,” concluding before i begin to walk to the entrance of the restricted area,

He jogged to match my pace and cautioned,

“ It’s an emergency bag Rajkumari Sa, who knows what we might need there, i have taken healing paste, potion, food and an extra pair of footwears for you, we should always have a caution bag,” i rolled my eyes and continued walking till we reached the dense forest.

Bushes and thorns increased in our way making it difficult for me and my clothes, my skirt kept sticking to them, however Shekhar volunteered to help me through it all the time.

As we approached the inner part of the greenery, the mist around us started to grow thick, blocking our view. I do not know where we are going now, Shekhar has held my hand tightly guiding me forward with him and continued to instruct that I should not lose my grip from his hand.

The weather dropped, the dampness and humidity of the atmosphere was sending shivers to my core, it’s so cold.
Musty and woody smell was making me lose my sense and drift into a deep slumber, i fought to keep my eyes parted even if i cannot see anything other than mist and fog, branches creaking under my feets after each step, leaving rustling behind, wind whistling in my ears,
