Suman - The Warrior Empress. ..(Completed)

VijayaSimhan-The revenge carrier

  If he wishes, thousands of women would like to marry him...then...why he's yearning for this princess...? Is she that much beautiful...?

Brihannala stuttered to reply....

"Maharaj...I am the poor slave...how could I know your thoughts...?"

She said humble....

Vijaya Simhan  walked to the window...

It had grown dark... there was dampness in the air as the palace was situated close to the river at one side and the other side to the sea coast...A breeze swung suddenly...

  Vijaya Simhan huffed audible....

"It's a tale of revenge...."

He began to talk....

-----------------------------------------------------------

   "Shravan....it would take less than a day to roam around Malayalam...we will find Sumantha soon...the important thing is you have to be strong and keep in mind that she would be waiting for you..."

Parvatheshwar was trying his best to encourage shravan's mood...he was worried to recall Shravan walking aimlessly...

Shravan's thought was with Suman...he just nodded to parvatheshwar..

While they were walking leisure, they saw the caravan...

Surprisingly...king udhaya Ravi marthanda varma was at the front... seeing him, shravan's tension grew up...his fists curled up in fury...his face flushed with blood...his walk hastened with the decision to kill Varma..

Parvatheshwar stopped him...

  "  Shiv....what are you doing...?"

Shravan's eyes were bloodshot...he angrily eyed parvatheshwar...

" Should I remain calm even after knowing that he is one of the reasons for suman's kidnap...my anger would quench only after tearing him apart..."

   Parvatheshwar was not affected by his fury...

"Shiv...calm down... it's not wise to kill him..we are two...look at them.. they are nearly fifty...I know you could manage all fifty of them...but...think...we don't know anything about suman...for this reason, we have to be patient..."

  Shravan understood parvatheshwar's point....he thought to be quite..

Marathanda varma knew me...!!! If we face directly...how he would react...? How am I going to handle him alone in his dynasty...?

Thoughts ran randomly with Shravan.....

    As the caravan neared... King udhaya Ravi marthanda varma got down from his horse and approached parvatheshwar...his wide grin fadded as he saw the man with parvatheshwar....

The next moment, marthanda varma averted his gaze to parvatheshwar...he bowed to him and parvatheshwar blessed him vijayea bhava....

  
     Parvatheshwar was one of the precious persons in the dynasty..his experienced advices had helped Varma in many situation...hence, the king had respect for parvatheshwar... They began to talk the current issues of fishermen casually....

  Shravan was surprised with varma's attitude....

Why he didn't recognize me...?

  By the time , samrutha approached parvatheshwar and she too bowed at him... parvatheshwar taught her the art of war and she had been the disciple of his principles...

"How are you samrutha...?"

She nodded and smiled...

"I am fine guruji...."

Parvatheshwar fondly  touched her head...

" My child... listen to your heart and fight against evil... goddess gowri will be with you always..."

  Samrutha beamed her head with pride....

" I will make you proud guruji..."

Marathanda varma laughed at the teacher_student conversation...

" I would be happy if you meet my daughter too..."

Saying so... marathanda varma turned to the palanquin...

" Suman..."

He called.... Suman opened the thick curtains and stepped out....

  For a second, shravan's soul left his body....he stood asif he had returned from the tranquillizer..his every nerve tingled...every tissue got tensed.... every senses aroused...sudden gush of blood sprung from head to toe...

  Suman...!!!!

His palates stuck together...throat parched and sweat flourished....

It's irony.... Suman forwarded and touched parvatheshwar's feet....she looked Shravan...

Those eyes were blank...devoid of emotions.... there's no any hint of love for shravan....

Then...she turned and walked back to the palanquin....

" ......"

Shravan's effort to call her ended vain as his throat numbed with pain....

   Suman....Why she didn't see me...? Or else, she's pretending...? Why I saw hate and disgust in her eyes...? Did she hate me really...? Or ....am I invisible....?

Lots of queries swirled around..

Hello all.... here's the next update....read it and please drop your comments...

  *Eunuch....there are traveller's notes that the eunuchs or third gender were given importance as they were believed to carry fortune with them... They were appointed to protect the Royal harem - anthapura....

In earlier era...their birth was considered as a curse...the normal living had been denied...

Latter,  moghal emperors had eunuchs abandantly in their court...even Chinese had the same history...

   Well....

why Suman didn't see Shravan...?or she don't want to see him for any reason!?!?! Guess...

hope you will like the update..have a happy read... vote and drop your thoughts...

Love

Arulpirai...
