Rukhsat

We have been riding for so long. I am very tired and irritated.

We ride in a  hierarchical way meaning that my sister and the Maharaja's horse is just some feet away from us and the other people are behind us.

Rajkumar Arjun has been extremely annoying. He has been touching me inappropriately for a while now and after my scratching didn't help I decided to give up. Surprisingly, he has also been very caring towards me and that annoys me furthermore because I don't know what exactly is it that he is trying to do. We had just stopped to have dinner and rest tonight. We will reach their palace tomorrow which is something that I have been dreading.

I entered my tent and decided to take off my dupatta and wash my face. It felt like all the dirt in the world got collected on my face. As soon as I wiped my face, I looked into the mirror and saw Arjun standing right there. I was horrified when I realized that I wasn't wearing my dupatta and he can look at my hair. He understood the look on my face. He smirked at me when he realized that my dupatta was kept really close to him and as soon as I tried to make a move towards it, he grabbed it in his hand.

I have had enough of him. First he keeps on touching me inappropriately all the time and now he is purposefully not letting me cover my hair. My blood literally felt like it was boiling.

My cheeks have warmed up because of the rage that I am feeling at this moment.
I looked at him angrily and I don't know how but the anger got to the point where I just sat down on my knees and started crying heavily. I hate being helpless. Especially, infront of him.

He walked towards me and crouched right next to me. He looked worried but I wasnt having any of it now. I have had enough. He has pushed all my boundaries. If he has decided to not respect my boundaries like this then I know that there is no hope in the future for me. Why should we not just get this over with.

He was reaching for my cheek when I took his hand and kept it on my neck very close to me breasts.

"You forced me into this. You only want me for your pleasure. Come take it all from me. Rob me of the last thing you can take from me because after this, there will be nothing more that you can steal from me" I said with fire burning in my anguished eyes.

The moment he understood my hatred filled statement, something changed in his eyes.

"Fine let me take it then". With that he held my hand and pushed me onto the bed. Even seconds had not passed before I found him on top of myself.

He started kissing my neck and biting on it. It wasn't like the other times he has touched me. It almost felt animalistic. It was very rough and rushed. It was as if he was possessed.  This started to scare me.

I started to struggle underneath him. I knew what was going to happen if I was not able to stop him. He was going to rape me!
The thought of it gave me more strength because that is the last thing I wanted to happen to me. I can't let him ruin me like this.

He held my hands and pinned them above my head. He held my jaw with the other hand and kissed me harshly. His lips were so rough on mine. He bit my lower lip in an attempt to make me open my mouth and allow him further enterance in which he was successful.

The hand which was on my jaw now started travelling a little downwards and was almost touching my breast when I twisted with all my strength which thankfully threw him off me.

The rage in his eyes when he got up and walked towards me, made me realize that there was no saving me today. He grabbed my dupatta and tied my hands together. Seconds later I found my mouth tied as well. I was profusely crying at this point.

He then signalled me to keep quiet and I tried to control my sobs as much as I could in this condition.

"Shehzadi, your innocence is mine to take. I can take it right here, right now and you wouldn't be able to do anything. Hell, nobody can stop me, but I won't", he said.

His last words came as a surprise to me. He wouldn't take advantage of me? Even though he has the perfect opportunity right now. That doesnt make sense and seems very unlike him.

He understood my confusion and continued speaking.

"I have something more that I want to steal from you first. I want to own your soul and heart, your body comes after it" Arjun said with determination.

Now I was completely lost. I don't trust whatever he says now. Somehow he knew what I was thinking.

"I know you will not trust me even if I tell you how exactly it is that I feel about you so I will give you sometime to adjust to everything. We will be getting married soon. You have to stop acting like a kid and be there for me. Take care of my needs Shehzadi", saying this he untied my hands and walked out of the tent.

I quiclky untied my mouth and started crying again. Tears were just not stopping. I almost got raped by him just because he was trying to prove. He was trying to prove that he can do whatever he pleases with me. Just so he could prove a damn point! And I was the one being childish? Has he got no shame?

Arjun

I entered Rukhsat's tent to tell her that, we would be having dinner in my tent tonight when I saw her long dark brown hair cascading down her back.

Her suit had a deep cut at the back and her hair was the only thing covering it. Her soft beautiful skin was on display.

She turned around to face me and I saw her neck properly for the first time. Seeing her without her dupatta knocked the breath out of me. She looked so delicate and vulnerable. Her doe like eyes widened with embarrassment and horror. It was sight I wish stays with me forever.

As I was taking in the sight infront of me, she was eyeing her dupatta which was lying very close to me. I couldn't let her cover up so soon. I wanted to look ar her some more. So I grabbed the dupatta in my hand.

She looked so angry right now. The angry expression makes her look more beautiful. Her cheeks were turning the colour of kesar with anger and the next thing I know, she is down on the floor crying and sobbing. What just happened? I quickly walked towards her and tried to wipe her tears but she held my hand and kept it on her chest. Awkwardly just above her breast. Her eyes were red and she looked different. Not the usual anger graced her face but what I would call fury, was all over face. I didn't know that she was capable of this emotion.

I looked at her, clearly surprised when she accused me of wanting just her body. I know I want her more than anything but I want all of her and not just her body. I want her to be mine in every sense of the word but the entire incident with the dupatta seemed like a playful situation for me but accusing me of just wanting to fuck her is no joke.

I grew really agitated over this. If this is what she thinks than I need to change her mind.

○○○○○

I let her know what is on my mind but will she even believe that or will she still think that I am her enemy.

I know I should be patient with her but I can't help it. I just can't. When she is near me, I need to have a skin to skin contact with her. I need to breathe in her scent.  I need her close to me.

If she hadn't thrown me off  of her I dont think I would have been able to control myself and would have actually done something, she might not forgive me for ever. Just a few days more and then she will be my wife.
