Princess turned Prisoner Pt 1

What could I have asked more? I have a beautiful kingdom, an royal and adorable family, the most loving brother and now I am getting married to the love of my life.

I still remember the day , I checked him out, hiding behind the pillar. He came to meet my brother, later I was informed he was our guest for few days and one of the closest friend of my brother. Minutes later I got introduced to him, he has the pious name ever. We instantly fell in love. I wanted to marry him and expressed the same to my brother.

He was elated than anyone else on the earth. He loves me the most. And I will marry the one I love the most, my Vasudev.

He is the most beautiful and handsome man ever by looks and by heart. His heart is pure. I am lucky to have him. 

Dressed in a royal attire, with my ghoongat covering my face, I entered the Mandap in a red saree. I can see brother having a wide grinish smile. 

Vasudev had a huge smile when i entered. 

The rituals were done but my father was no where to be seen.

"Bhai.. where is father? How can he miss his daughter's marriage?'

"He is busy. You carry on."

As the rituals ended, my eyes still searching for my father. 

"How can he do that to me?" Tears welled up realising the fact that this won't be my home anymore. All the childhood memory flashed.

A guy with his face covered in a black cloth approached my brother. I couldn't hear the conversation but he had a proud victorious smile. The man disappeared again.

"Enough is enough." A sound echoed as if it was coming from the heaven. 

We all looked around and then up.

"You have done enough. You are devil like no one else. You have harmed mankind, imprisoned your father and killed many. Your death is near. Your beloved sister anf your dearest friend will give birth to your death. You will be killed by their 8th son. You will be killed like no one ever has. Your sins have earned your doom." The voice vanished.

My face was blue. I was scared. What is this about? My brother is a devil? All these years, I have worshipped him and this is what I deserve? He said father is busy but he is imprisoned? Devaki couldn't believe her ears. Is it a dream?

She closed her eyes thinking it would vanish. She opened her eyes to see her brother standing infro

nt of her with a sword with blood red eyes.

"I love you sister, but I have to kill you as you are going to give birth to my death. I love you but not more than me. You have to die. " He charged the sword but stopped when Vasudev dropped to his knees.

"Please dear friend,dont do this. I love her. Please. I promise we would give our 8th son to you the moment he is born. He won't kill you. You can have him. Please don't kill Devaki. " He pleaded.

"Okay, but you and her have to stay in my prison forever. My man will have eyes on you. "

Kans ordered his men to capture and imprison them. He let out a devilish laughter.

"You think you can win over me? How stupid are you?" He screamed looking at the sky. "You shouldn't have informed me about it. Now that I know, I won't allow him to live. "

Devaki and Vasudev were locked in the prison, hands chained.

Devaki broke down , sobbing loud.  

Hours ago she was happy to be married to the love of her life, sad to leave her father and brother behind but here she is in chain with the confirmation of death of her 8th son. 

"What if I don't give birth to any? I don't want my kid to die. " She thought to herself.

She hated his brother now knowing all the sins he has done, tortured people. This was the first time , she entered their prison. She saw many people captured, being beaten, have scars, blood stains. She couldn't believe she was unaware from this side of her brother. She hated herself now. 

The night arrived when she was still in the wedding outfit. A man entered and threw some clothes at them. "Wear this. "

Another man came with Roti hard and chewy as rubber and cut onions on a plate and kept it near them. "Have it." 

Devaki couldn't belive Kans would stoop to this level. She pushed the plate away. Her anger touched the roof.

"Your king wants to kill me. But I will die before hand. I won't eat or drink anything."

Tears started rolling out of anger.

Vasudev carassed her face. "Don't do that Devaki, you need to be alive and healthy to give birth to our children."

"Why Vasudev? So that Kans kills my son? He deserves to live like any other kids we will have. I have decided, I won't give birth to any. " 

The message was sent by the men to Kans.
