I nodded in agreement and went towards the garden, hugging my grandfather from behind.
“Oh, my princess, how are you?”
“I am good. How are you, and how is your health?” I sat beside him and spoke.
“I am good, and now I am even better after seeing you here.” He said,
I smiled and started talking about random stuff. Then I said, “Amm, Grandfather, I wanted to ask you something.”
Hearing this, he turned toward me and said, “Yes, you have all my ears. What is it?”
“Grandfather, you know Azar has arranged the bodyguards for me, and you know I hate all these things. Can you please give me some ideas to get rid of them?”
He heard me and looked toward Aunt Nina. I don’t know what they say, but they were smiling for no reason, I guess. He looks back to say, “Princess, you have no idea how happy this news has made me.”
“What made me happy about this?” I looked at him with a confused expression and asked him:
“Do you know what the meaning of this princess is?”
I shake my head no. Gosh, can someone please tell me to come to the point?
“He cares for you. You are the first woman he cares for. He has major trust issues, especially with women, because of his past, but I am so happy that you have already made your place in his heart. And about security, sweetheart, he is not wrong here. He has many enemies, and you are precious to us, so there is no way out for you in this.”
“What past are you talking about, grandfather?” I somehow agreed at the end. But his statement caught my attention.
“It is not my place to say anything, princess.” He smiled and said,
I nodded in agreement. I know he will tell me when the right time comes, so let us wait.
After some time, I left for the house, as I was very tired and needed to get to bed as soon as possible.
At Ara House
SANYA POV
Sanya: “Uncle, what is all this happening? You said you would stop this engagement, but you did nothing. You can say big things, but you cannot do jack sh*ts.”
Sanya’s Uncle: Language, young lady.
Sanya’s Aunty: “What language? She is right. You did not do anything, and your stupid priest also did not do anything. But don’t worry, Ara dear, we will do something soon. We will not let that little brat get married to the king. I will make sure only you become queen. But princess, do not forget your promises,” she says, smirking.
Sanya looked at her and said, “I am a princess and born to be queen, and I will never be back by my words, Aunty.”
Aunty: “Dear you, you know your grandpa always loved your father and mom and ignored us. Your father left everything and came here, and we stayed there, taking care of everything. Still, your grad pa loves your dad only.
He never loved our son either, but we never minded, but it hurts, you know?
But for me, you are like my daughter, which I never had, and I always loved you as mine, and I will do anything for your happiness.”
Sanya: “Aunty, I know everything, and I love you both, too. You both always supported me, and that’s the reason I came to you with my problem. Now tell me what to do. I cannot see them together. He is mine. How can she even think she can take my place? Does she not have any shame? Aunty, do something before I lose my sanity.
Aunty: You know, princess in royals, if something happened to one sister, then the other one can take her place.” Her eyes held an evil glint.
(Guys, this all is fiction; I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings here, and I am just writing what my story requires.)
Sanya: What do you mean, Aunty?
Aunty: “I mean, accidents can happen anytime, anywhere. You know what I mean?” She smirks.
Sanya: No, Aunty, what are you talking about? I cannot even dream of hurting Sanya. No, that is not possible.
Aunty: “Dear, I only have this idea if you have any to let us know. We are always there to help.” saying that they both left the room, leaving Sanya in turmoil.
AZAR POV
I reached the office and noticed lots of pending work. God, I was out only for three days, not for three months, huh?
I got engrossed in my work and heard someone knock on my door, but before I replied, someone came and sat in front of me.
I gave him a look and started doing my work again. After some silence and speaking, I asked, “Did you want to say something to my old best friend?”
I know he is angry, and he has all the rights to be one, but I cannot give up as well, so I looked up and said, “What you want to hear, tell me, and I will say.” I smirk internally.
Hearing me, he got up and said “bye” and started walking towards the door, and I gave up and called out, “Mason….”
He stopped hearing me but did not turn around, so I walked towards him and said, “Sorry, everything happened so fast that I could not get time to inform you about this.”
He looked towards me and said, “You went there to say no, then how come all this happened?”
Hearing him, I nodded, said sit, and told him the whole story. He was looking at me like kids look at candy and asked, “So how does Sanya-in-law look like?”
Hearing this, I smiled and said, “She is an angel. You will love her when you meet her.”
Hearing me give a smile and say, “I am already loving her, as by her name, I can see a smile on your face, A girl who can make you smile must be something, and I cannot wait to meet her.”
