The Royal Rebel

Chapter 13

I was about to enquire about this when a man , maybe some years younger than my father started speaking

"This mansion is known as Veer Bhawan, it was made in 19th century by our great grandfather, Rana Veer Singh Chauhan, he was a huge fan of different kinds of architecture. He later started living here  as it was his favourite . We do have other palaces but they are either tourist attractions or are converted into hotels"

I nodded at his words but stared at him in confusion , I still don't know who he is...

He smiled at me and further added

"I am your Nirbhay kaka sa"

I was thinking how to greet him and decided to just take his blessings, I was about to touch his feet when he stopped me saying

" Daughters don't touch feet princess"

"Where are the others Samrath?" Bhai sa asks the man , who is looking of almost same age as I

"Dadi sa is at the temple with Aditi , Aditya is off to somewhere regarding his college admission but he will be there for the dinner and Rudra , only god knows where he is "

The man says

Bhai sa was visibly frustrated and leaves from there, suddenly Nirbhay Kaka sa's phone rings and he excuses himself, saying something about important meeting. I was hella tired, I just wanted to sleep again for some time

I think my father noticed that because the next moment he asks me to take some rest

"Princess, go to your room and take some rest, you will meet the rest of family at dinner . Samrath, your second oldest brother will show you the room and will also give you a tour of the mansion " he said the last line while looking towards the man , whom I now know is my brother, Samrath.

He gave me a forehead kiss and too left from there, I won't lie but it felt ....nice , I had the same feeling that I used to have with my papa, loved and safe...

My second brother came towards me with a smile

"Hello bacha, I will give you a tour tomorrow as you look very tired today . Let's go to your room for now" He started going towards the stairs and I followed him while admiring the beautiful interior of the mansion.

We finally reached my room on the fourth floor , the floor kinda looked dark and scary but was regal at the same time..

"Mine and Rudra's room is just down this floor, also Bhai sa's room is opposite to yours, come to us if you need anything, okay?" He said

"Yes..... should I call you Bhai sa too?"

"You can call me bhaii or bhaiya whatever you want " he replied with a smile, damn! I am telling you this man can manipulate anyone with his charming smile...

"Okay bhaii, ... Well, bhaii who is Rudra ? If you don't mind me asking"

He looked like he was contemplating something before he said

"Our brother , you will meet him at the dinner, now sleep"

He said and left from there, but not before ruffling my hair.

I too slept thinking about everything that happened in my life..

Third Person POV

(A day before their departure from Indore)

Abhay was sitting with his father in the living room of the suite they booked, both lost in the same thoughts, though Shivagya was convinced to go to Udaipur with them , it was clear that she was doing this due to the promise she made to Kundan and not because she really wanted to give them a chance...

Suddenly Abhay's phone rang, it was Samrath

"What happened Samrath?"

"Bhai sa , you should bring her back as soon as possible"

"Why ? What happened?"

"Dadi sa held a Shanti Puja today, the priest sprouted some nonsense about Shivagya's destiny in the name of fortune telling. I am sure she is planning something to harm her . Also only 10 days are remaining in your ultimatum Bhai sa "

"Hmm . Don't worry Samrath we will be there tomorrow with princess .Also make sure that Rani sa would be the one to welcome her with her own hands"

"But Bhai sa , I don't think she will agree..."

"Tell her that it's my order. And the princess's room should be the one opposite to mine on the fourth floor. Understood?"

"Ji Bhai sa "

Abhay cut the call and immediately contacted Kartik to inform him that they would be leaving for Udaipur tomorrow.

"Abhay don't you think we are hurrying everything? She needs some more time to grasp all this" Neeraj said to his son

"I know she needs time baba sa , but her safety is more important. I know that the women sitting there as my mother and daadi sa can cross any limit to achieve what they want. And about hurrying... Don't you think we are already very late? We missed more than 20 years of her life. Her first word , her first achievement, her teenage years .."

Abhay replied and sighed deeply

Neeraj just lowered his head in guilt , again thinking about what if he had showed some courage and if he was capable enough to protect his daughter...

(Present)

Abhay was in his office when , Neeraj entered there

" She is home finally" he said to Abhay after sitting in silence for some time

"A ball would be held after 10 days , and I will introduce her to the world, everyone would be invited" Abhay informed him

"Everyone?"

"Yes"
