“You know what,” he muttered slowly, and I stepped back.“Even I am a soldier,” he said, and the anger rushed into my body.
I bit my lip before slicing his head off his body.
Fucking Motherfucker!
His body trembled for a moment until he gave up.
I nodded my head with a slight smile.
“Koi baat nahi, tumhare baap ko bhi dekh lenge,”“Don’t worry, will see your king as well.”
And I fell, drowning in the river.
Chasing the end.

29. Suman
It hurt seeing Nandani walking away from me.
I didn’t know what to say. I didn’t tell her anything because I didn’t want to reveal anything about his past. But it felt like no one understood me.
What on earth did I do?
I didn’t know what to feel. My heart sank because I hadn’t met him, and yet he left.
And it was entirely my fault. He came to see me, to tell me something, yet I didn’t listen.
What did he want to say?
I bit my lip and stood up, trying to hide my tears. I wanted to find out where he had gone. What on earth was happening?
Princess Rashmika was in the palace, so where did he go?
Wait!
Did he go to war?
My heart suddenly stopped at the realisation, and I felt a tightening ache in my chest. I ran to Nandani’s chamber.
“Nandani,” I called, watching her lay the Princess on the bed.“Nandani, can you tell me where he went?” I asked as she sighed, walked toward me, took my hand, and led me to the couch.
“Sit down,”
I did, and she too.
Holding her hands with my trembling ones, I begged,“Please, Nandani, I’m sorry. I know I didn’t tell you anything, but is he okay?” My voice wavered.
She nodded, gently caressing my hand.“Yes, he’ll be fine.” I inhaled a breath of relief.“But what happened between you two?” she stared into my eyes.
“I think I messed it up badly,” I accepted, shaking my head, losing my senses.
She patted my shoulder gently, muttering,“Well, if you don’t tell me, how can I help you?”
I looked at her.“Nandani,” inhaling sharply.“He told me about his past, and it hurt me.”
She frowned.“What? Why?” she questioned.
