Meera was sitting in the middle of the room feeling conscious. She was covered in just a piece of fabric covering her from chest to knee. She was surrounded by women, the prestigious women of every kingdom of M.P and some other state, her family women, the queens and soon-to-be queens of various kingdoms who came to attend the coronation, and her taiji, dadi, and bhabhi. She was made to sit on a stone placed in the middle of the room while carpets were placed at some distance from her where the ladies were sitting.

"Let's start with Haldi." The oldest among them Rani Sharmila who was the sister of Pratap Singh spoke. "It will make your skin glow and remove any impurities from you."

Meera listened to her and could just nod her head.

"Choose 4 ladies who would give you a bath with 4 auspicious materials." Queen of Mewar and mother of Abhimaan, Maharani Shivangi said with politeness in her voice.

Meera looked around and her eyes stopped at the women of her life who supported her when everyone seemed to pull her down.

"Maa, Choti Maa, Revati di, Anu Bhabhi" Meera finished in one breath and looked at them smiling at her, and stood up from their place.

"Sorry beta but Revati can't do the ritual. Only a married woman could do that." Queen Shivangi said

"Of course. Don't know why she is making our Abhimaan wait so much. These modern strong women and their useless dreams." Nandini said making faces towards Revati which angered many people there.

"Don't know about your house Nalini ji but in our house, a woman is considered the strongest. Our deity Is Maa Kali itself and you think that our Abhimaan would marry a weak lady who can't even speak for her dreams." Shivangi said with anger and disgust clear in her voice which she didn't even try to hide.

Revati controlled her smile and spoke "No worries bhabhi, you can choose someone else."

Meera looked around and her eyes stopped at the woman who impressed her with just one sentence, Queen Shivangi. She smiled at Meera and stood up with the other three women.

Rani Sharmila spoke "Let's start with Haldi. One lady among you makes the future queen bath with Haldi."

Rashmi came forward and took one pot of Haldi mixed with water and poured it over Meera slowly and soon her body glistened with a yellow color making her look like Maa Durga itself. And one by one all 5 pots of Haldi were poured over her as Meera tightly shut her eyes close.

Later, Anika came forward and poured 5pots of honey over Meera making her body glisten with the viscous material.

It was followed by Queen Shivangi who poured pots of Milk over Meera as it removed other material traces over her body leaving her with a smooth skin.

Anu was the last one to come. She held the last pots from which a sandalwood fragrance was coming making their nose filled with its beautiful smell. Anu poured the last five pots over her.

Rani Sharmila stood up from her place held a small pot filled with water and rose petals and slowly walked over to Meera " Now, every woman present here would make the queen bath with water. Just like water accepts everything, It will show your acceptance towards the queen and the queen's responsibility to accept every living being for her kingdom and anyone who is related to her kingdom." She said and poured the pot of water slowly over Meera who had her eyes closed.

And one by one all the ladies present there made her bath with water. Soon after, Meera was sent with Revati and Anu to get her ready. Meera first took a bath and later wore the clothes.

Ready in a red lehenga with some hints of orange and pink color on it, she walked out of the wardrobe where Revati and Anu were ready with her jewelry and other stuff.

Soon, after they made her ready she looked like a real queen but something felt off to Meera. She found herself beautiful but something was missing and her eyes went wide on realizing. Anu noticed her expression

"What happened meeru? Are you not satisfied with the makeup?" Anu asked concerned seeing a sad look on Meera's face which got Revati's attention too.

"It's pretty but....." Meera said but stopped saying the words.

"But what bhabhi? Tell me." Revati said putting her hand on her shoulder.

" My pendant. It's not there. I forgot it in my room when Maa asked me to come early in the morning."

"Is it important.?" Revati asked

Meera nodded her head thinking it was a first gift from him.

"I'll bring it. Just tell me where it is."

Meera suddenly felt relief on hearing her.

"It's on my dressing table. It's a simple chain with a bird locket." Meera said.

Revati nodded and sprinted towards Meera's room.

Revati reached Meera's room and knocked on the door, and soon enough heard a come-in. She opened the door and was to see the unexpected person there. Her fiancée standing there in all his glory staring deep into her eyes. His eyes raked her from up to down making her still in her place.

"Rivu.........." Aashrit called out to her with confused eyes.

Revati looked away from her fiance and faced her brother " Bhabhi forgot her pendant and she wants it.

Aashrit nodded knowing well how much Meera got attached to that pendant as Revati moved towards their wardrobe and looked at the ring lying on his finger proudly. As she entered the wardrobe, she shut her eyes and put her hand on her chest. One looks at the man and she forgets to breathe. Although she was a bit upset from him his mesmerizing eyes made her forget about every complaint. She found the pendant soon enough and left the wardrobe. Not for once she looked at Abhimaan and left ignoring him.

On the other side, Meera was sitting in front of the mirror looking at her beautiful rare self.

"Does Kunwar sa act nicely with you, Meeru?" Anu asked

Meera looked up at her and nodded with a small smile.

Anu put her hand over her head and slightly patted " I am always there for you. If anything happens, you know whom to call." She said looking lovingly at her while Meera could just nod.

Revati was about to enter the room when someone caught her hand putting a hand on her mouth and pulled her behind a pillar. She tried to free herself from the sudden attack but to her bad luck, the person on the other side was much stronger.

"Shhhh reva..........." This voice was enough to stop the efforts of Revati and made her look up at the person standing there.

Abhimaan standing there with his back on the pillar, his one hand covering her mouth and the other on her waist. Her eyes went wide seeing him there.

" You didn't even spare a look at me while leaving. Did I make some mistake?" He said removing his hand from her mouth and moving the lock of hair falling on her face.

Revati looked at him with stinky eyes and pushed him turning back to leave when Abhimaan held her hand and pulled her again.

" Quite disrespectful you are." He said holding both hands behind her back.

Revati tried to free her hands but nothing seemed to work when Abhimaan's next words shocked her.

"Don't make me angry Reva. You know you won't be able to handle the punishment." He said as he removed the dupatta from her waist and pinched her there while his nose touched hers and his eyes fixed on her lips.

"And would you be able to handle my silence," Revati said still struggling in his hold while trying to calm her heart too.

"Hame maaf kar dijiye jaan." Abhimaan said finally, not knowing his mistake, leaving her hands and joining them with his.

Revati held the back of his head and pulled him near her face "I don't want to see that woman Rakhi ever near you." She said with anger dripping her tone and raged breath.

Abhimaan smirked "Jealous"

"Don't test my jealousy Mr. Abhimaan." She said putting her nails over his kurta and digging it inside.

"She is just a secretary," He explained

"Then change her. I don't like the looks she gives you."

Abhimaan could just nod in front of his lioness and leaned in for a kiss when Revati put her finger over his forehead and pushed him back.

"We are at my home Mr. Abhimaan Singh Chauhan. Keep your hands and lips in control." She said and turned back flipping her hair which hit him in his face and he looked at her moving away.
