The Commoner Consort: The Country's Respected Empress

Maya feels her body started to behave weird. She doesn't know what this feeling is but she felt her whole body is tickling, burning and immensely hurting her. Its just she couldn't point out anything.

Because she felt everything instantaneously. To her surprise, she looks at the wound in her hand before, disappeared now completely!!.

Maya stands shocked and is about to touch the place where she was hurt before by her trembling hand. 'This how could this be possible....'.

At the moment she gets some thoughts which she had long forgotten and gasps 'Is this due to that curse?!'.

Immediately she was thrown out of the chamber by something. Maya loses her consciousness as her body is completely poisoned by now.

------

In Northern part of Kirthar Hills.

A man rushes in a horse and if we notice the speed of his ride, we can tell that he was in a great hurry. The man fled in his horse because the speed was unimaginable.

Soon the man reaches a camp and jumps from the horse. Within a second, he disappeared as his speed of running is too fascinating.

As soon as he entered the camp, he kneels "Long Live Crown Prince!!".

Kalki who was planning something seriously before, turns "How is the condition now?". He still looks at the edicts and maps before him.

The man is none other than the Chief Servant of the Emperor. Yes Victor!!. Just how could this man run this fast at his age?!.

Victor nods curtly "Everything is under control for now Your Highness! I have assigned the tasks for both Princes!".

Kalki nods and asks "Is there any extremists?". Seems he is well aware of his country's condition!.

Victor answers "We don't have any for now Your Highness!".

Kalki orders "Handle everything at least for few months. I would make everything right after I have a control over situation here".

Victor informs "Princess Veronica has planned to visit Madam Maya".

Kalki's face turned completely full of disdain "Don't mention any trash informations Victor! Your are pretending to be an Eunuch and your prime duty is to spy! Don't forget that!".

Victor nods "Yes Your Highness! But you are misinformed in something!".

Kalki frowns and looks back at Victor "Who was it!? Who did dare to lie Your Lordship!?".

Victor infroms "Its about Madam Maya".

Kalki throws the map in his hand away and hisses "Why are you mentioning about that stupid girl again!?".

Victor says seriously "I think Madam Maya isn't illiterate-".

Kalki chuckles coldly "But This Lordship doesn't cares! I order you not to take her name ever after. And without my permission she shouldn't be called with Madam title! Prepare an edict for that firstly!".

Victor gets stunned "Your Highness! If you do so, it will obviously show that she is an unwanted wife in the palace and no one would respect her!".

Kalki smirks coldly "Why do you care?".

Victor explains "Your Highness!! I have informed Emperor that you kept Madam..Sorry ..Maya away from Imperial City for some security reasons. But we can't forbid her title so obviously. If Emperor gets to know this-".

Kalki interrupts smirking "Just inform Emperor that she herself said so or do anything! But she shouldn't get any of my Imperial family's title! Staying in the Luxurious Pavilion itself would be an unimaginable dream for her!".

Victor nods "Yes Your Highness! Then this servant takes leave".

Kalki continues his previous planning.

Victor gets out from the camp and looks worried. 'Such an humble child! I wish she gets a good life ahead! What would Emperor have planned for her tomorrow'.

He looks back at the camp and smiles meaningfully 'Someday I have to choose between Emperor and the Crown Prince! I feel Emperor wouldn't be happy hearing this news. If Emperor stops me from disowning Maya's title Whom would I chose?'.

He shakes his head helplessly and mutters "I hope I don't face any situation like that".

He rides back towards the Imperial City as he still has many important tasks to be done!.

After hours of travel, he hears some sound and follows the sound sneakily.

He gets suspicious 'Why is Prince Xavier here?!'. He rides his horse towards him and asks blocking him in serious tone "Prince Xavier?".

Xavier looks at Victor and informs worriedly "Victor! The Pavilion is attacked!!".

Victor was so shocked to hear the news and spits "What?! When?! How?! Is Madam Mary fine?! Is Princess and Prince-".

Xavier lets out a worried breath "It's the Countryside Pavilion!".

Victor was visibly worried more than the previous time and asks "When did it happen?!".

Xavier says hurriedly " Last night. I have to pass this news to Brother!".

Victor guesses Kalki would never acknowledge this news as important unless he realizes the consequences.

He nods curtly "Please go ahead!" and looks at fading image of Xavier into the dense forest.

Victor couldn't help feel sad "Such a humble child! I was still unaware of her potentials".

'Betrayers can never be ignored!'.

He mumbles thinking deeply "She should be literate...From an esteemed university! But I never heard of any country that allowed woman to study! Unless...." and a mysterious glint appears in his eyes "Hindustan!".

--------

Before few hours.

Empress Pavilion.

After the news of fire in Countryside Pavilion, Veronica didn't expect Maya to die so soon.

Veronica is smiling brightly and scoffs "You were taking my name, don't you?! Now the entire country would still be unaware of you! I just wanted to throw out of even getting into the Palace.. How can I not go by my Brother's command?! ...He particularly mentioned to keep you away from Father...Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! I didn't thought you would leave the whole world...".

She walks towards her bed sitting elegantly and smirks "And The would-be Empress of our country died ....and no one ever knows....".

VERONICA!!

She snaps out and looks at fuming man.

She mocks boringly "Please Xavier....Don't start blaming me! She deserved more than this!".

Prince Xavier was in rage yet asks calmly "So do you admit your deeds?".
