Nawaaz (pov)

"I knew it Little Dove, that you poisoned the food, you prepared for me." I can't help but smirk at her dumbfounded expression. But her tears... I don't like them a bit, so I wipe them away with my thumb. I understand her reaction, my little dove thought her conspiracy would not be caught by anyone, little does she know that I have an eye on everything that happens in this palace, specially at her since her arrival here.

I know everyone's dirty little secrets, because that's how you gain power over others. "Nawaaz ji--- How... When.. Nawaaz ji... I" she bursts out sobbing uncontrollably. I sigh.. as I pull her towards me making her look up at me, with those big beautiful tearful eyes. How can someone look so angelic even while crying?.. has always been my first thought since the very first time I saw her in those dark forests.

I hold her jaw up as she avoids looking at me and keeps crying in guilt. I want to see her eyes.. I want them on me, nowhere else. "shhh.. little dove, if you keep on crying like this, I might have to call the royal doctor." I try to console her, which is first for me. I haven't consoled anyone in my whole life. I tend to make people cry, not console them. I guess my comforting powers are not so great as my torturing skills, as she sobs harder.

"Ok you continue with your crying, I will just order Wajid to kill that Daasi." I back off slightly to get up, but as I expected from her, she grabs onto my arm desperately, "Please No!! Nawaaz ji.. see I am not crying. Please don't leave me!!" she stutters and I look down at her wiping her cheeks. I expected this from her, but what I didn't expect was her pleading me to stay.

I sit closer to her.. as close as possible. I cup her cheeks between by palms and stare into her misty eyes as she controls her tears from falling. Her attempt makes me smile softly, "my little dove, I am not leaving you not now, not ever." She sniffs and stares earnestly at me "How can you say that Nawaaz ji? I—I tried to poison you.... with my own handmade food!"

"I know" I say as she gapes at me with frustration clear on her face. "Nawaaz ji! I don't understand... How.. How can you know all this??? And if you knew then, why did you take care of me???" She holds her head in frustration. My little dove.. I loosen her hold as she pulls her hair in that frustrated state... and I keep her hands in my own.

"shh.. I have my eyes on everything and everyone in this palace. Specially on my little dove" I caress her cheeks as I pull her face towards me. I feel her sweet breath hitting on my lips, as she closes her eyes and just keeps on crying silently in guilt.

I look at her face, her parted lips, her closed eyes, soaked cheeks and one single drop of tear making it's way down her cheeks. tch tch... those tears are mine. I slowly suck that lone tear from her soft cheeks. I feel her breath hitching.. making me bite her on the same spot. She winces but doesn't open her eyes. Her cheeks are so soft.. does everyone has such soft cheeks??

I move back as I inspect her cheeks which are now bright red in color. I smirk as she opens her eyes and stares at me. "So my Little dove, how did you get wet exactly?" I bite my lips to control my smile on seeing her shocked reaction, which is natural except the blush. Oh! So she has taken a different meaning of my statement. I chuckle as she fidgets with her fingers.

"angel, I am talking about the night, when I saw you all soaked up, shivering and lost in your own thoughts. Did you really fall near the fountains, Little dove?" I ask, already knowing the answers. Yes I got to know, how Rukhsaar and her Daasi insulted and harassed my little dove. I always suspected something weird in Diya's behaviour and answers that night. When I enquired about her whereabouts of that whole day, I came to know that, she never went anywhere near the fountains, that whole day, and the fact that she lied to me just increased my curiosity, which led to some interesting and infuriating discoveries.

when I got to know that Diya came out all soaked from Rukhsaar's chambers, it was not such a hard task to guess what must have happened. But when I heard the whole incident from one of the daasi who works at her chambers but for me, I felt like ripping her head off and punishing Rukhsaar for hurting my little dove. But then Asha, informed me something which was probably the most shocking news of my life.

I literally never in my dreams could have imagined my little dove plotting such an evil plan against anyone, not even her worst of enemies. I mean I always knew that she was not as innocent as she looked, but to go to this extent, to risk one's own life to make another person suffer.. wow!... Was my first thought after I came out of my shock. Second was the moment of anger, because she lied to me, and didn't trust me enough to expect some justice through me. But the third thought was the most life changing one... for me and her. She was made for me.. Just for me.

All these thoughts were the reason why I let her continue with her plan, to see how far she goes, how far she can go... it was like a fun game for me, until the moment I saw her taking that spoonful of poisonous curry to her mouth.. I gulped in fear for the first time in my entire life... and when her body dropped to the floor like a lifeless object, my heart fucking dropped like her body. That feeling is unexplainable for me.... I have never felt like that for anyone... I have never been scared like that for anyone in my whole life. I just wanted to take away all her pain and bring her back to me... my little dove, my jaan.

"I know that Rukhsaar and her Daasi were responsible for you being all soaked, that day.. I know darling. And that's why I said, I will kill that Daasi, even after knowing that she is not the culprit of that poisonous plan.. but she did mess with you, and that reason is enough for her death." I tighten my hold on her cheeks to make myself clear to her. She just stares at me with her wide eyes.

She opens her mouth to probably ask of how I came to know about that day.. "I have my eyes on each and every corner of this palace darling, so no need to work your brain for the 'how?' because you just need to know this. So I expect you to not lie to me in future or try any other stunts like this without my permission, Is that clear?" images of her lifeless body flashes before my eyes, making me fume in anger.

She nods as she lowers her head, probably in regret and guilt of everything. "What? Don't you want to say something?" I lift her chin up to make her look at me, I hate it when she looks away from me. She licks her lips, distracting my eyes and my anger. And what she says next blows away my mind.

"You will kill the Daasi.... What about Begum Rukhsaar?" she mutters these words in such a meek voice.. my little dove keeps surprising me... and keeps making me lose... myself.

I move my face closer to her face, and kiss her soft lips... she doesn't respond.. I guess I took her by surprise for once today. But then I hear her moan as her fingers tangle themselves in my hair.. and she pulls me closer. Well... I guess today is her day.

She starts leaning back, making me come on top of her, as she lies on the bed, pulling me on top of her. I don't want to hurt her with my body weight, so I wrap my arms around her waist and roll our bodies in such a manner, that she comes on top of me.. while we still keep sucking each others lips like there is no tomorrow.

She finally breaks our kiss, making me growl in irritation. She giggles.... And that giggle is enough to calm me down. "You should rest" I say as I keep smothering kisses on her neck, she chuckles at the contrast between my words and my actions. I can't help it, if she keeps on giggling and chuckling like this. I bite her on her neck to silence her laughs, which does work but the only issue is her sexy moan.

"Nawaaz ji.." she mumbles, breaking my last thread of patience. I pin her down on the mattress, as I stay on my fours on top of her heaving body. She looks heavenly.. Made for me by the gods in heaven.

I lower my face as she shivers in anticipation. I nuzzle my nose on her collarbone... she even smells like heaven. Indeed my dark angel. "What have you done to me?" my mouth blabbers without any second thoughts. See.. I am not a person who just blabbers whatever is on my mind.. I rarely speak much to anyone... except few orders and strategies with Wajid.

"What have I done to you?" she repeats my question but with a slight smile on her face. She wants to hear my answer to my own question. She is definitely my woman.

"You are playing with my head.." I breath in her intoxicating fragrance as I bite her hard just below her collarbone, making her whimper. I love to hear her soft breaths, her moans. I slowly pull down her blouse from her shoulders, as I stare into her curious eyes... my hands caress her smooth skin I just exposed.. god!! She is soo beautiful. I can't look away from her innocent face, her big wide eyes, her parted lips...

Diya (pov)

I feel breathless... as I see him getting away from me, and slowly removing his upper body garment, He stands on his knees on each side of my shivering body, half naked..... and I can't help but ogle shamelessly at his ripped upper body... his whole aura screams power as he looks down at me. He adorns many battle scars on his well built chest, with pride.

He hooks one of his forefinger in my deep neck blouse, and pulls me up towards him, breaking my reverie, and making me blush. As I try to look away, "uh- ah Keep staring at me, Little Dove" He whispers into my ears as he leans into me and slowly his arms go around my back... his fingers caress my bare back, giving me goosebumps all over my body.

He keeps his chin on my exposed shoulder, as his fingers play with my blouse doris at the back. I wrap my arms around his neck and hug him tightly, in an attempt to calm down my racing heartbeats. I feel his lips on my shoulders... as he showers some small kisses there.

I can feel the dori loosen, and he holds my shoulders and slowly removes the blouse.... And now my upper body is completely bare.... I feel a shiver run through my spine as he removes it completely.. making me back away from his warm embrace. I look down... now burning in my shyness.

"God made you just for me" He mumbles as he starts inclining towards me, making me lay back down with him on top of me... on his arms, which are on each side of my head bearing his body weight.

"Do you really think so? After all I did?" I look straight into his eyes to catch any lies.... But all I see is his kohled eyes darken a shade with each passing second... "I really think so... because of all you did darling" I see only truth in his eyes as he utters these words.. and the fact that he accepts me for all my flaws and infact has been more into me after knowing my darker side.... Just makes this all the more intense.

He moves a bit down, his nose rubs on my bosom.... His lips caress one of my nipples... and slowly he takes it in his mouth... all the while his eyes keep staring at mine. He sucks on my nipple, making me moan loudly in pleasure. He stops and leaves it with a pop sound making me turn red.

Then he gives the same treatment to the other side, as his fingers play with the other one. I just can't bear this... so I dig my nails onto his bare muscular shoulders, and I hear him groan.. oh no did I hurt him? I try to take them away.. but he moves closer, his body covering mine, and he takes hold of my retreating hands and wraps them around his neck.

"My little dove, is acting like a wild kitten.. Should I start calling you that now?" he breathes these words on my lips as he inhales my exhales. "Why do you keep giving me such weird animal related nicknames?" I blabber out my thoughts.. later regretting, when his body stills. But two seconds later he starts laughing out loud. And oh! he has the most charming laughter. I just keep looking at him laughing his heart out.. just seeing him laughing.. gives me an immense pleasure.. and me being the reason for it, only doubles my happiness.

He stops laughing... and rolls his lower body into me... making me feel something down there... is that..... Is he grinding his manhood on my lower body... We both groan together when we feel each other. "Jaan..... does that sound good?" he whispers into my ears... and I am so lost in his actions, that it takes me a minute to register his words... but that only makes me lose my mind more. He called me 'Jaan'.... It not only sounded good.. it felt sooo good!

He presses his lips on mine, this time more softly... more passionate. His tongue explores my mouth as he melts me with the kiss. Then he moves away.. leaving me out of breath but oh so elated.

He moves away, and lays besides me.. confusing me. I turn my body to face him as he smirks at me. I raise my eyebrows as I am too shy to ask him for his reason to stop. He chuckles in a deep voice and pulls my half naked body closer to him.. so close that our bodies rub against each other.

"You need to rest.. You were almost dead yesterday. I don't want to risk your life by continuing this today." his smirk widens and his self confidence makes me chuckle. I nuzzle my face into his chest and breath in his musky scent. As I close my eye.. he turns my body so I face other side...as he tightly pulls my body into a back hug. His one arm wrapped around my waist and the other one around my neck... and I feel him showering kisses on my bare shoulders.

"This will be the last time you lie and hide something from me.. I would not be this good, if you repeat and risk your life like that for a mere Daasi or anyone for that matter. You are precious to me my little dove.." he whispers in my ears in his low husky voice..

As his hand around my neck travels down and palms my boobs, his thumb lightly grazing my nipples. "You are mine, Jaan.... Just made for me... my most precious possession and I would absolutely hate it to lose you." he bites my earlobes as he whispers these most valuable words into my ears.... Making me moan in ecstasy. "Now sleep my little dove" his deep voice is the last thing I hear before dozing into one of my most peaceful sleep.
