CEO Daddy, Let's Get Mommy

Ch- 85

Everything looked like a dream. She was sad for the past half an hour but her brother appeared all of a sudden and shocked her. What the hell was happening? This was the only thought that she has in that mind. 

When she was immersed in her thoughts her brother already got up from the ground. He reached her and said, "I let you wait three years! Sorry sis!" he said as he hugged her. 

"Wait isn't it eighteen minutes?" she shrieked out loud. 

"One second equal to one day there, Shakti," Their Kula Guru said. 

"How did you get out of there?" his kula guru asked. 

Bhairava opened his mouth but he had no words. Sensing his discomfort kula Guru approached him and went through his memories. He even passed those to Shakti. Shakti was curious why the processes for him and her were different. 

Kula Guru smiled after he checked all his memories. He closed his eyes and burned the tree. The tree was destroyed just like that. There would be no other chance for anyone to cultivate the energy. No one felt disappointed except for one. When he saw the tree being burned just like that his eyes turned red from anger. If only he could get that seed and give it to that man, how nice it would have been. This would have been an epic and he would have been the king of …. 

Well, it's a story of another time. 

"You all may disperse for today. I need to talk to Bhairava about the things that happened earlier!" The Kula Guru said. 

The Elders bowed their heads in respect and left the temple. But the Kula Guru could sense the hatred from one particular man. He smiled in that man's direction as he smoothened his beard. 

"To the Garbha Gudi!" he said. 

The three of them entered the main sanitarium of the temple. But before they left Kula Guru went to the spot where they planted the seed and took it out. They just used it and dried it. They can still make it recover the energy and use it again. He burned the tree to create an illusion that the seed no longer existed. 

"Bhairava! Shakti said about your conditions. I may not be able to get your wife and child back. But I can make them reborn again. What do you say? Will you wait?" he said. The Kula Guru was searching for some softness in the man in front of him. But he saw nothing. 

"Gurushresta, Mama Janati Murtha Jana punah janma na shakonthi! Athava Bhavan chet punah janma avakasham dadati, mama ananditha na avadhim karishyami! (Oh Great teacher among all, I know and realized that dead people will not come alive. But If you give them an opportunity to reborn, My happiness will have no bounds!)" Bhairava said. 

"You will not be sad if they don't come alive?" The Kula Guru asked again. 

"Na hi, GuruVarya! (No, MAster)" he replied. 

[A/N:  The word 'Na hi' is still used in Hindi as a 'no'. But Nahi is treated as a single word in Hindi!] 

"Well, I can do it. But You have to cultivate yourself and become stronger!" he said. 

Bhairava nodded his head. 

After that, the Kula Guru said what he was going to do. 

"Kula Guru, Could you give me one day? I need to sort out palace things. After sorting out, I will come back sooner and will do as you say,"  Bhairava said. 

"Okay!" he said. 

After that, he went to the palace. 

"Sister, please be the queen of this kingdom till I finish my cultivation. I can't trust the kingdom to the mom now," he said. 

Shakti wanted to argue with him but she knew it's for the best of the kingdom and she has to do it for the sake of her citizens. After thinking for a while, she nodded.

Bhairava arranged an emergency meeting with the court ministers. They were all confused about why he gathered them now. 

"Mama Sachiva, Ekam mahat prakatanam karishyami imam sabha virachatim! (My Ministers, I am here to announce a big thing for you)" Bhairava said in his pure Royal Sanskrit which was different from the common folk to say this. 

"Rajan, Kathayatu! (oh King! Please Tell!)" loud cheers erupted from the ministers. 

"Itah Yavat, Asmakam Rani...Mama Jyeshta Sodari, Shakti! (From today, Our queen is…. My Elder sister, Shakti!)" He announced finally. 

A pin-drop silence enveloped the whole court. No one understood what was going on. 

"Rajan, kruthey avivekam mama asmakam kshama mrugayathey! Shakonthey prathiyuktham kimam! (Oh King! I beg your forgiveness for my imprudence! Can you tell us why?)" the minister asked in a single breath as he bent his body in ninety degrees as he raised his hands in the air in namaskaram. 

"Kshanta! Asmakam prashn uttarniyam! (Forgiven! Your question could be answered!)" he said. The minister was sweating furiously when he got silence from him. 

"We all know, The old king is retired!" he said and looked for the onlooker's answers. They nodded their heads in yes. 

"But the queen is not, right?" he asked again. They nodded their heads in yes. 

"This is the reason. The king is resting while the queen is working. The Queen also wants rest and retirement just like the kind. So, she wants me to make my sister be an acting queen till I get a wife! My mother wants to see my sister rule the country. Also, another thing is for the next few centuries I am going to 'Samadhi Sthithi' (closed space to cultivate powers) to cultivate myself for our bright future. My sister will guide you all. Please guide her!" he said with the utmost respect. 

Cheers erupted in the court showing their consent towards his decision. They were all happy about his decision. 

"Kshantam! ( Calm down!)" he said loudly calming the excited crowd. 

"Since, I have to leave today. I didn't make any arrangements for her ceremony. But sister… You won't mind me giving a simple ceremony, right?" he asked her permission along with the crowd. Indirectly he was saying to the few jealous ministers if she doesn't have any objections, you were in no position to object. 

"Nope!" she answered him with a smile.

Her smile was gentle and pure. It made her look like the gentlest woman in this world. 

"Matha! (Mother!) Please crown her with your precious hands!" Bhairava said with a smile.

At this moment, Shakti finally noticed his obvious changes. From the time he came from that illusion world. He turned colder, decisive, and in fact stronger. He was half equal to her. If he wants to reach her he needs to listen to his Kula Guru. But she was worried. Because when she was asked to do that. She didn't dare to because it turns one's heart into a stone. She doesn't want to be heartless. She wanted to love someone and feel those feelings. After all, she was a woman too. She wanted to be a mother. If she cannot love her child she will be an utter failure as a woman. So, she declined. But now her brother! She doubts that his heart was frozen because of the earlier thing. She saw those veins with soul energy stabbed in his heart. 

Shakti came out of her thought when her mother stood in front of her with a glare. She brushed it off but her mother continued to look at her. Shakti was no less. Practically her mother was weak. 

Shakti glared at her as she suppressed her mother with her aura. 

Her glare said mess with me you will face consequences. Rani Padmavathi Devi's face paled at the sight of her daughter's angry face. She couldn't believe she was scared of her but that was the truth! 

She knew her daughter would never show any mercy on her. She was always unbiased. But it's her luck she was her mother. That's why she got saved, if not she would have been in serious trouble. 

Padmavati Devi placed the crown on her head and turned around as she smiled at the crowd. She immediately left after doing that. Rani Padmavati was so angry that her children didn't even let her sit on the seat of queen for some more time even when her son was not married. But what can she do!? IF they were her husband's mistress children she would have killed them. But they were her children. Her flesh and blood. She can only endure that! 

After the crowning process, Shakti greeted everyone. And did main rituals as the new queen. 

The citizens and ministers were happy with Shakti as their Rani or Queen. Sakti was not particularly happy but she felt nothing much. She just wanted to help her lovely brother. Bhairava attended that day's court. Every time his decisions and punishments were lighter. But this time his decisions and punishments were straight and cruel. His sudden change shocked everyone and it also created fear in their hearts. They understood their slight punishments were gone and from now they have to face cruel things. 

That day passed quickly with many surprises.
