********

On The day of Engagement!

20 mins after Rehmaat left the Jal Mahal.

"Baba Sa, I am so sorry my mother and her evil plan took Dada Hukum's life years ago. I am sorry, but I accidentally heard her talking to someone just after the ring ceremony was done, that how they will make history repeat self. That how they will kill the new King just like they killed the previous king,on the same date." Viraj's face showed Many emotions but guilt and disgust were the most prominent ones.

"No, Viraj it's not your fault, you didn't even knew anything about it. I had my share of doubts but I didn't had solid proof, now that you know about this truth. I think you deserve to know about the other bitter truth of your life." Rana Sa sympathetically patted his shoulder.

"What, what truth are you talking about ?" Viraj's face turned cold.

" Your father, his death was not natural, he was stabbed in stomach and in the back brutally. The weapon was most probably a dagger or something but unfortunately it was never found. And the one who planned this also planned my Baba Sa's death. As during his postmortem it was revealed that it was the car accident that took his life, but before that he was attacked by someone and the dagger used on Baba Sa and your father was same. So it means...." Rana Sa halted inbetween not completing his sentence.

"I can't do anything for my Baba and your Baba now. But we can still save the one who is present with us." Viraj breaked the silence in a cold voice.

"What do you mean ?" Rana Sa Asked.

"They are planning to kill Hukum Sa as he is the rightful King. They have formed a plan to kill him today as soon as he goes to his chambers, as Maa is holding the Authority of being Groom's mother, no one from your security questioned her when she invited her "special guests" inside. And as no one goes to Hukum's chambers so as soon as he went outside his floor, she keenly told her men the spot to hide." Viraj revealed and took a pause before continuing.

"And most of our guards are present here, so it's not safe in the palace at all. We ourselves have to go Baba Sa, right now, before something bad happens. I have already called my special guards to accompany us." Viraj completed his sentence.

"You are right Viraj I will call Bhanu to come along. He will be our backup support along with his trained men." Rana Sa took out his phone to call while walking along with Viraj, out of the Jal Mahal to the car parked in the parking lot.

**********

"Viraj, I don't think so it's safe to go inside by our own. We should not go upstairs on our own let's wait for Bhanu." Rana Sa suggested.

"Baba Sa, it's only one man hiding upstairs, as he thinks that Hukum is not aware about this attack, so he won't be able to combat a sudden attack, that too after he sleeps. So I think we both can handle him well and moreover we both have guns with each other." Viraj gestured towards the gun in his hand and another one in Rana Sa's hand's.

"Ok let's go." Rana Sa took the lead as both reached upstairs, Rana Sa Slowed down a little to make sure that he was not making any sound.

But suddenly he felt an extreme force on his left hand that was holding the Gun. The attack was so sudden that the gun bounced away from his hand.

Before he could recover from the impact a sudden piercing pain shot through his back.

He was stabbed!

His eyes widened and vision blurred but nothing came out of his mouth.

"You were right Rana ji, the dagger that killed your and mine pathetic excuse of father was same. But the thing that you didn't knew was, that my Nana killed your father, while I killed my father." Viraj's voice was full of hatred.

Rana Sa was shocked to his core, he never anticipated that a calm shy boy like Viraj will be the snake Alas.

"Do you remember this dagger, the same dagger that took your father's life, the same dagger that will take your life, the same dagger that will take your son's life soon. The same dagger that your father gave in alms to my grandfather. Bheekari Samajh kar Bheek di thi!" His voice held loathe.( He gave him alm like a beggar)

"Now, now, now Raghuvanshi just wait for a few days, your son will join you in your afterlife soon. The Raghuvanshi's, the so called bloodline of the King's will be over." He shouted with menace clear in his eyes.

He was about to pierce the dagger in Rana Sa's stomach but before he could do that a sharp pain shot in his head.

Someone has knocked Hard over his head with something metalic.

His vission blurred for a moment and he lost his grip from the dagger.

Rehmaat let go of the metal vase in her hand and rushed towards the gun lying on the floor, the same gun which was knocked out of Rana Sa's hand's. And after grabbing the gun, she got hold of the dagger too and tossed it towards the stairs away from Viraj, after that she hysterically rushed towards her buddy.

Her eyes here glistening with moisture and a sob shooked her body. She was terrified!

But before she could say anything she saw Viraj regaining his balance and sense. She immediately glocked the Gun towards him.

She was not going to let go without a fight and definitely not letting this Traitor harm her buddy!

Rehmaat thanked her Partner in her mind for giving her training in handling Guns. Even though it was a sport for her at the time, but now this talent of hers was going to save a life.

But before Viraj could take a step ahead someone got hold on him from behind. In a death grip.

"Rehmaat, you go, Rana Ji needs immediate medical attention, we can't loose a second, get out of here with him." Bhanu Singh, the most loyal person of Royals said, while Viraj lazyly tried to get out of his grip, but was not able to as firstly Bhanu Kaka's grip was strong and secondly he was still not fully recovered from the impact.

"But go from the back door to the parking lot straight, there one of my man is standing he will help you. Going from the front is risky." As Bhanu Kaka instructed, Rehmaat with all her power dragged a semi-conscious Rana Sa.

Her one hand was gripping Rana Sa's waist and another was supporting his other hand on her shoulders.

She was crying and panting while mumbling "Waheguru, Waheguru, Save him, Waheguru."

With great difficulty she finally came out of the palace towards the under ground parking, where a man was standing.

He immediately got hold of Rana Sa and while Rehmaat panted.

"Come on Baiji, we can't waste more time let's go." As he was about to go towards the car, Rehmaat panted "No."

Listening to her say no the man shooked his head surprised.

"We can't go in car, it's 10:30 in the night, the traffic that we will have to face now will never let us reach on time." After listening to her words, the man thought for a min before nodding.

"But than how will we go?" He asked her confused.

"My bike, you will sit on the back while holding Buddy firmly. I will drive the bike." Rehmaat told her plan.

The man followed her instructions, Rehmaat took the key out of her pocket which she had with her as she was going to airport after driving the bike, from the Airport Ruhanika's brother was suppose to pick up his bike.

As Rehmaat started the bike the man made Rana Sa sit in the middle while he himself adjusted at the end. Rana Sa was slowly loosing his consciousness.

But before slipping into the darkness, with great difficulty he slowly whispered in Rehmaat's ear "D..nt..... Tr....st..... Ay.... ne." As his head was resting near her shoulder, only she was able to hear the broken words that were nothing more than a whisper.

*********

"He is critical, the wound is really deep and on top of that he has lost a lot of blood. We had Rana Sa's previous medical history from which we know his blood type is B negative an extremely rare type. Are you a B negative?" The doctor asked to which Rehmaat shooked her head negatively.

Bhanu Kaka's man was absent from there, Rehmaat didn't noticed his absence much. Both arrived at the hospital a few minutes ago and without any formalities the doctor started the treatment as the hospital came under the Raghuvanshi Empire. And the senior doctor immediately recognised Rana Sa!

"We are trying to arrange the B negative blood type. But it's rare and we don't have much time to waste." The doctor informed while tension was pretty much clear in his face.

Suddenly it clicked to Rehmaat and she yelped.

"Doctor, I am O negative, universal blood donar, you can use my blood. I can give my blood to anyone and I don't smoke, drink and didn't had any sort of infection from previous 2 years." Rehmaat informed.

"Medical student?" Doctor asked surprised.

"No, Arts student, but I know about these things as my grandfather has arranged blood camps many times and all my family members have donated there blood many times." Rehmaat explained.

While the doctor asked, "When was the last time you ate anything."

To which Rehmaat replied " In evening, but don't worry after donating blood I will eat something. Right now saving him is more important." To which the doctor nodded.

"Don't you dare G.P. Don't you dare to do anything to Buddy. Save him please." Rehmaat's tear were continuosly falling from her eyes while the nurse broked her chain of thoughts.

"It's done, mam please visit the cafeteria and eat something it's important for you." The nurse said after removing the drip As she helped Rehmaat to get on her feet.

The blood donation was successful, now it was easier to save Rana Sa.

As soon as Rehmaat got out of the room, she decided to go to the cafeteria after words but firstly see her Buddy once.

But before she could say anything, a strong grip over her mouth made her shudder.

Someone has closed her mouth with there big hands while another one has got her hands in a tight grip. Rehmaat was trying to fight but she was mentally and physically drained, so was not able to match the strength of two people!
