Maheshwari sprinted towards her daughter's room, her voice echoing loudly as she shouted. Tahir was taken aback, bewildered by her words. How did she discover his presence? And why was she accusing him of something? As he witnessed the flames engulfing the princess's room, a realization struck him. Someone had orchestrated this malicious act to frame him, intending to harm the princess and shift the blame onto him
Tahir approached the princess's chamber and observed as individuals extinguished the fire with water. The scent of oil wafted towards him, confirming his suspicions that someone had indeed attempted to harm the princess. While he harbored no concern for the haughty princess's well-being, he was adamant about not being falsely accused of a crime he did not commit, which prompted his presence at the scene
"Maa saa"
Y/n screams in terror at the sight of the fire, her voice reverberating throughout the corridor. Her brothers tightly grasp their mother, who is attempting to enter her room despite the flames. The king commands his soldiers to extinguish the fire that has engulfed the entire area. The thought of losing his daughter fills him with overwhelming fear
Upon removing the cloth from her face, she experienced difficulty breathing, causing everyone to gaze at the princess whose eyes were filled with tears. She collapsed to the ground, screaming in distress as memories of past incidents involving fire flooded her mind, instilling fear within her. Despite her brothers' attempts to enter, the high flames prevented them from reaching her
Tahir's heart ceased to beat as he caught sight of his beloved inside the room. He observed her, terrified and tearful, screaming at the fire. Without hesitation, he grabbed a cloth and bravely entered the flames, leaving everyone astonished. Unexpectedly, a massive pillar collapsed, obstructing the entrance to y/n's room, rendering them invisible
He approached her and swiftly draped a cloth over her, causing her to cry out loudly and embrace him tightly, oblivious to his identity. In this moment of need, all her darkest memories flooded her mind, leaving her feeling extremely frightened. As he gazed down at her, her face buried in his chest, he felt a surge of anger towards himself for failing to realize that the woman who had captured his heart was none other than the mysterious princess of Rajgarh
"Jab tak ham zinda hai tumhe kuch nahi hoga"
(Nothing will happen to you until I am alive)
He hold her firmly, instilling a sense of peace within her upon hearing his words. As she gazed at him slowly, her trembling body betrayed her intense fear. Holding her tightly, he was taken aback by the sight of her terrified expression, a stark contrast to her usual radiant demeanor
He gazes at the flames engulfing her room, unable to exit through the closed entrance due to the massive pillar. His attention shifts to the balcony, where he scoops her up in a bridal hold, her dark black eyes fixed on him. Swiftly, he strides towards the balcony, ensuring they escape before the fire consumes that area as well, and peers down below
"Yaha se niche jaa paogi"
(Can you go down from here)
He asked y/n who move her hand towards a large pillar located next to the balcony, which they could use to descend. They promptly moved towards it. After taking a deep breath to compose herself, she climbed onto the pillar and began descending slowly. He watched her intently until she landed safely, then he climbed onto the pillar and quickly made his way down, prompting her to gaze back at him
"Hamaari jaan bachaane ke liye dhanyavaad.. Tum hamaare liye apni jaan dene ko taiyaar the. Ham ye kabhi nahi bhulenge"
(Thanku for saving my life.. You were ready to sacrifice your life for me. I will never forget that)
Unaware that he had saved his own life by rescuing her, she expressed gratitude for saving her life. He simply gazed at her as she looked back at him with a gentle smile on her face, then shifted his gaze towards the brilliantly shining moon. Encountering her once more, he now knew her true identity and finally discovered the woman who had been driving him insane in recent days
Maaheshwari rushed towards her daughter and embraced her tightly, shedding tears uncontrollably, causing y/n to hug her mother tightly as well. The king glanced at Tahir, who had saved his daughter's life. Indravati ran towards y/n, crying in relief. She had been terrified to see y/n trapped in the fire, but her heart skipped a beat when Tahir bravely entered to rescue y/n
"Ye sab uss hind ke rajkumaar ne kiya hai, hame aaj hi vaha ke ek insaan ne samachaar bheja hai ki hind ka bada rajkumaar yaha chupkar aaya hai aur iss rajya ko paana chahta hai jiske liye vo hamaare baccho ko maar dega. Iski shuruaat usne hamaari beti se kiya"
(The prince of hind kingdom have done that, I got a message from a person from hind today which says that the prince of hind had come here and he want this kingdom. He will kill my kids for that, and he started it with my daughter)
Maheshwari's countenance darkened with rage, eliciting gasps of surprise from all those in attendance, Tahir included. His eyes bore into y/n, who stood next to her mother. He swore to exact brutal vengeance upon whoever had the audacity to commit such a despicable deed. The individual had inflicted harm upon a woman who held immense importance to Tahir Singh Rathod, and to compound matters, hailed from his own realm. He was resolute in his determination to unmask the culprit, no matter the price
Tahir's hands clenched into fists as he contemplated the individual who attempted to harm y/n. He distanced himself from the scene, leaving y/n to gaze at his vanishing silhouette, replaying his words in her mind. She couldn't quite understand why, but his words failed to evoke positive emotions within her. He fearlessly plunged into the flames, disregarding his own safety, solely for her sake. She couldn't fathom why, but she couldn't help but believe that there must be a motive behind his act of saving her
Man sent by Kalyani, on the other hand, stand in the corner with a frightened look. They never anticipated that Tahir would risk his own life to save the princess of Rajgarh. Realizing that Tahir would show no mercy and brutally kill them if he discovered their presence, they swiftly flee from the scene
"Unhone hame maarne ki koshish ki hai, ham hind ko barbaad kar denge"
(He tried to kill me, I will destroy hind)
Y/n let out a resounding roar in a deep voice as she pondered the fire incident that had befallen her. The ministers present in the Royal court all nodded their heads, their anger evident towards the hind for cowardly attacking their princess. Rawal Singh gazed at his beloved daughter, who was his entire world, and spoke
"Hind ko paigaam bheja jae.. Yudh ka paigaam"
(Send a message to hind... Message of war)
The King's face displayed evident anger, while y/n's face revealed a smirk upon hearing her father's words. She tightened her grip on her sword, contemplating the older prince's scheme to attack her. She vowed to personally end his life with her own blade and force him to submit before her
In the meantime, Tahir is galloping on the horse, his face filled with anger, as he heads towards the kingdom of Hind. His sole purpose is to uncover the identity of the person who used his name to harm the woman who holds great significance in his life. Thoughts of her consume his mind, despite his disdain for the enigmatic princess of Rajgarh. The revelation that she is the very same woman he cherishes has driven him to the brink of madness
After three days of journeying, Tahir eventually reached the Hind. Hastily, he entered the Royal court, only to be taken aback by the presence of all the ministers, who wore expressions of anxiety. Perplexed, he glanced at his brothers, who also appeared tense, further adding to his confusion
"Bade rajkumaar... Rajgarh ka paegaam aaya hai, unhone yudh ka aelaan kiya hai hamaare saath vajah batai hai ki hind ke bade rajkumaar ne unki rajkumaari par jaanleva hamla karaaya hai"
(Elder prince we received a message from rajgarh, they announced a war with us. They tell the reason is that the elder prince of hind try to kill there princess)
A minister, with his gaze lowered, observed as Tahir glanced at the individuals staring at him. They believed Tahir's actions were motivated by a desire to claim the throne of Rajgarh. Tahir clenched his fists in anger and stormed away. Durgavati watched him leave with a stern expression, knowing deep down that Tahir was incapable of such treachery
Durgavati gazes at Tahir with an emotionless face, absorbing all the information he shared, except for his secret attraction towards the enigmatic princess of Rajgarh. Meanwhile, Tahir fixates on the moon, peering through his room's window. Today, he catches a glimpse of Y/N's reflection in the moon, and only he comprehends the immense ache he feels upon discovering that the woman he intended to harm is none other than the woman who has captivated his heart
"Tumne uss rajkumaari ki jaan kyu bachaai tahir, vo to dushman hai... Dushman ke liye tum kabse daya dikhaane lage"
(Why did you saved that princess life's tahir, she is an enemy... Since when you start showing mercy to the enemies)
Durgavati's face remained devoid of any emotion as she was fully aware that Tahir was concealing something from her. Tahir refrained from providing any explanation and simply shook his head in denial, indicating that he had no knowledge of why he rescued the princess. Only his heart held the true reason behind his actions, only his heart comprehended the immense pain he experienced upon witnessing her trapped amidst the flames
"Chhoti maa.. Aesi koi chiz hai jo chaand ke tarah roshni deta ho aur aag ki tarah haani bhi pahucha sakta hai"
(Chhoti maa.. Is there any thing which give brightness like a moon and can harm too like fire)
Tahir's question left his aunt feeling confused as she pondered for a moment before walking away
"Alaav ek aesi chiz hoti hai jo raat ke iss andere me roshni deti hai aur aag ki tarah haani bhi pahucha sakti hai"
(Bonfire is a thing which provides light in the night and can harm a person too like a fire)
Taehyung's face broke into a sly grin as he pondered about her. She was his source of warmth and he was determined to keep her by his side. Unbeknownst to her, she believed that the older prince of the hind desired her demise, unaware that he was actually willing to lay down his own life for her. Taehyung yearned to reveal the truth to her, refusing to remain silent until he had explained everything to the fiery woman
"To tum meri alaav ho"
(So you're my bonfire)
With a somber countenance, he let out a piercing whistle as his beloved horse swiftly galloped towards him, halting gracefully on the lawn beneath his bedroom window. Without divulging his destination to anyone, he departed the room, driven solely by his desire to catch a glimpse of the woman who had captivated his thoughts and heart so profoundly
Y/n lies on the ground, her hand gently touching the pot brimming with white lotus flowers. The moonlight bathes her body, casting a soft glow upon her. She decided against visiting the hills today due to the ongoing war preparations, realizing it is unsafe for her to wander around the kingdom with the looming threat of enemies. Her mind wanders to the man who rescued her, but despite her efforts, he vanished without a trace after that fateful day
Engrossed in her thoughts, she remained oblivious to the presence of an intruder in her bedroom. After hours of travel, Tahir finally reached Hind and promptly made his way to the palace upon realizing she was not in the hills. Being familiar with every route in the kingdom, he effortlessly gained access to her new room, aware that the king had relocated her after her previous room was destroyed by fire. Gazing attentively at her radiant figure illuminated by the moonlight, he proceeded cautiously
Y/n noticed footsteps approaching from behind, causing her to tense up. She retrieved a knife from her waistband and rose cautiously from the ground. As she turned around, she came face to face with a mysterious man whose features were concealed by a black cloth. Before she could utter a word, the man swiftly advanced towards her, disarming her and covering her mouth, causing her eyes to widen in fear
"Hame maarne ke liye ek khanjar ki zarurat nahi hai rajkumaari... Tumhaari ek nazar kaafi hai"
(A dragger is not needed to kill me princess... Your one stare is enough)
Tahir's smirk was evident as he pressed her against the wall, sending shivers down her spine as the cold surface made contact with her skin. Angrily, she locked eyes with the man, his voice sounding vaguely familiar but unrecognizable. Despite her attempts to push him away, his grip only tightened. Tahir's strength overshadowed hers, leaving her unable to break free from his hold
"Vo aag hamne nahi lagaai thi... Ham apni jaan par ek kharoch bhi nahi dekh sakti usse zinda jalaane ki kosis kyu karenge"
(I didn't append that fire, I can't even see a scratch on my life than why I will try to kill her)
As he gazed at her with eyes brimming with affection, he expressed that this was the first instance he had observed her so intently, free from any apprehension for her safety. Y/n's eyes grew somber upon hearing his words, realizing that the individual standing before her was none other than the elder prince of Hind. Sensing her angry glare, he acknowledged it and spoke
"Ham tumhe bolne ka mauka denge par chillana mat kyuki agar tumhaare saenik aae to vo hi maare jaenge hamaare haatho"
(I will give you chance to speak but don't shout because if your soldiers come than they will get died by my hands)
