Pregnant For The Royal Prince

FOR a moment Vidya was in a daze as the words of her mother sank right into her. Like seriously? Was this the plan she talked about? Hmm, she sighed.

So she was still finally gonna leave the palace for some other girl? Leave Raghav for some other girl? Crap! Well, as long as the girl wasn’t going to be Rina, she would try to be cool with it.

She looked at her mother, who stared at her all the while waiting for her response.

“Mother, actually I really wanted to be the Prince’s bride, I really wanted to be a Queen”, she said and sighed.

Her mother scoffed.

“Okay, be the Queen, be Prince Raghav’s bride and then what? What next exactly?” She asked.

Vidya sighed, saying nothing.

“Tell me, are you really gonna be happy in that union? Aren’t you tired already? Like, aren’t you tired?” She asked waving her hand at her face.

Vidya sighed again, deeply. Now, she was actually seeing sense in what her mom was trying to say to her. To be honest, she really wasn’t happy staying in that palace, she wasn’t loved by anyone, and besides, Rina, her archenemy had already been taken care of, she has left Raghav just as she wanted. She nodded knowingly.

“You are right mother”, she said, “I think that’s exactly what I’m going to do, just leave and get hold of something while leaving”, she said.

“Good!” Mrs Roshan applauded, smiling broadly, “good! Now, how are we going to do it? You know this is our only chance to get rich since your dad left us”, she said.

Vidya hissed, making a face. Reminding her of her jerk father was what she never wanted, at least not now. As far as she was concerned, her old man abandoned them, giving a reason that they, she and her mother were just too greedy for material things. Well, that was his problem.

“Mom, to do this, that means I will still have to remain at the palace like for a couple of months”, she said.

Her mother nodded.

“I get it”, she concurred.

“Yeah, because I will have to scheme out something and get in touch with the royal account officer, so everything is just going to be slow and steady, you know I wouldn’t be cathing away with just a few rupees”, she winked, smiling.

“Wow! What a whiz kid you are”, her mother replied and laughed out. Soon Vidya joined in the laugh, and they continued laughing non-stop.

The blue Beetle screeched to a halt right in front of ‘the house’, and Raghav who was behind the wheels, revved the engine to a halt, as it died down slowly.

He was the only one driving, and he has just driven from the hospital where he had just assisted some other doctors to conduct an operation.

It’s been a few months now, the search for Rina was still ongoing, and yet, no clue. Actually, he had called Rudra and apologized for his stupidness the other day, and then asked him to bring in his team of guards. So since then, they have been doing all they know how to do best, and yet, nothing.

For the past few weeks now he hasn’t gotten in touch with them, neither has he prived into whatever they were doing. He just left them do their thing and got busied with work.

Life although hadn’t return to normal, but people have to move on, life must have to continue right?

Zaina and Prisha had returned back to school and hence, forgo their work with the private investigator, following the fact that Raghav and his team was gonna take care of it.

The King was still in hospital, bedridden. Arya, she was just there, taking life as she saw it. And as for Vidya, she was still in the palace, faithfully hoping for the hopeless to happen.

He alighted from the car and properly adjusting the dark googles on his face, he walked in. As soon as he got to the living room and settled on a medieval, a selected few from the search team, surrounded him.

“Report”, he said.

“We are still on it Maharana, we are still yet to find her”, the leader said.

Raghav was stunned.

“What do you mean by that? For how long?” He asked, looking into their faces.

“My Prince, I must have to be honest with you here, it’s not as easy as you think. It’s not something we can get done in just a day or two. The victims here possess no gadgets on them, nothing that can be used in tracking them, and besides, if really the Queen’s hand was involved in this, then I must applaud her guards, they have been so smart. We can’t even trail them”, the leader came again.

“So, what are you insinuating?” Raghav asked, looking at him this time.

“Well, we need more time Maharana, just give us some more time to do this. Like I said, we are on it”, he assured.

This pissed Raghav off so well, he fumed fisting his right hand as he did. Instantly, he got up and without saying a word to them, went out of their midst and straight to the car.

He entered and zoomed off, and that was the very last they saw of him.
