Page 38 of The Royal Beast & His Caged Princess

She completed the unpacking and then walked away to surprise her brother with the cake...

She decorated the cake, wrote 'get well soon bhayyu' on it and took it to his brother, who squealed looking at it...

Abhyansh who is passing through the corridor, walked into Ranveer's room hearing the squeal...

"Ishu... You made my favourite cake... Yayyy, you are the best, I love you", Ranveer said, Abhyansh shook his head and walkedback to his chamber... He didn't think a wise man like Ranveer would be an emotional fool loving his sister...

"Okay, now cut the cake and eat it...", Isha said with a smile and he did that...

"I'll give you only one piece... rest all is mine... Hah, thank lord, your BEAST hates sweets... This cake is all mine", Ranveer said and Isha rolled her eyes...

"I don't want that one piece too, you can have it", Isha said with a smile...

"No no, you have it, so that you don't cast an evil eye on me", Ranveer said giving her a small piece before he dug in... Isha hit his head playfully and both of them started talking randomly when Sheela came to Ranveer's chamber...

"Veer, how are you son??", she asked

"Fine till you came in, what do you want??", he asked concentrating on his cake... Isha frowned looking at why is he talking to his mother so rudely all of a sudden, her brother was never like that, Is it because now he got to know that they torture her?? Or he got to know about what Madan did to her?? No, no, the latter is not possible, who would tell him... She asked herself...

"Isha... you gave cake to him, he is a patient you stupid....", Sheela started but Ranveer's raging tone interrupted his mother...

"One more word against my sister, I wouldn't even think a second before kicking you out of this palace... As you alreadyknow, according to Dadi sa's(grandmother's) will, only me and Isha have the right on Rajput properties, after bade papa's demise, you are here because you are my mother...

"You are talking to your mother Veer", she said angrily

"And that's the only reason you are alive till now, LEAVE", he screamed the last word making the two women in the room shiver with fear... He slowly ruffled his sister's hair smiling at her, calming her... he knew she is too soft and innocent, and he mostly avoids getting angry with her or in front of her except for when he couldn't control himself at all like this time...

Sheela walked away calmly seeing her son shaking with anger... Ranveer and Isha's grandmother, i.e Kailash's mother, saw how her younger son and her daughter-in-law treated Isha after her(Isha) parents' death, the woman even had doubts about her elder son and daughter-in-law's death, she suspected her younger son, Kailash's hand in it.

Amar Rajput, the late king, made a will transferring all the Rajput properties to Ranveer as he wanted him to be the next king, he never had any partiality between Isha and Ranveer, in fact, he wanted Ranveer to be the next king, and he wanted to declare it but his mother stopped him asking him not to do that, as they all knew Kailash's intentions, if he knew his son is going to be the future king, he wouldn't step back before spoiling Ranveer so that he could support him in his illegal activities, so they portrayed as if the throne belongs to Isha as she is the daughter of the king, but Ranveer knew this all along, Amar and Pallavi Rajput told this to him when he was just 10 years old, Ranveer loved his Paternal uncle and aunt more than his own parents as they were the ones who gave him that parental affection more than his own parents.

After they died, Kailash was plotting against Isha, thinking about whether to kill her or just drop her at an orphanage far away from here and his mother, Rajmata Sanghvi Devi Rajput got to know about this through her loyal servants. She changed everything to Isha's name except for a few properties where Ranveer has a right too and she made Kailash and Sheela believe that if something happens to Isha, the properties will go to the Rajput trust. And that put a full stop to Kailash's plans but his hatred didn't come to an end there, he showed his hatred towards little Isha every time he saw her, the queen mother used to protect little Isha but just after a year of her elder son's death, she too died of a heart attack leaving Isha to bear the torture. Ranveer always made sure his sister is fine, but his parents used to torture her whenever he isn't home, and they threatened not to say a word to Ranveer.

"Bhai...", Isha is about to reprimand him for talking like that to his mother but he interrupted her knowing what she is about to say.

"No Ishu, she is wrong, and I can't tolerate how she is talking to you...", Ranveer said and Isha just nodded knowing her brother wouldn't listen to her.

"Ishu, did Madan do something to you in the morning??", Ranveer asked calmly though his blood is boiling, Isha's eyes widened, how did he know?? And then she remembered she accepted her brother's call before Madan threw her phone away, but when she collected her phone later from the floor, the call wasn't running, it hung up.

"What??", she asked looking here and there, she couldn't stop her brother if he gets to know the truth, she knew he would beat Madan black and blue, he wouldn't forgive his father as well...

"Ishu, don't try to lie to me, I heard the noises and I couldn't move, so I asked Mr. Ranawat to see what's happening", Ranveer told her the half-truth, acting as if he didn't know the truth...

"Oh! so you sent Maharaj, thank you bhai, nothing happened, Maharaj came at the right time...", Isha said, pain visible in her eyes...

"What's wrong Ishu??", Ranveer asked lovingly and she sobbed hugging him...

"I know he hates me, but isn't he affected when another man was about to touch his wife?? he reacted so casually, I know I couldn't even expect a thing from this marriage after all that he has done to me but still, if not as a wife, he could at least think me as one among his people whom he is supposed to protect, he is the king, don't I deserve it at least??", Isha asked and Ranveer ruffled her hair lovingly...

"Ishu, he would have acted as a king, if he thought you as just one among the people, but you are his wife, I told him you were in trouble and he said to let you suffer, he didn't even react because he hates you like you rightly said but as soon as I told him Madan was about to touch you, he sprang on his feet with rage, I saw the BEASTLY form for a second, Ishu, I don't want to give you any hopes for this marriage, because as soon as possible, I'll free you from his clutches and we both will move to London, but if knowing this will make you feel any better, then listen, your husband is not okay with a man touching you and if I'm not wrong, Madan won't see tomorrow's sunrise", Ranveer said and her eyes widened at his last statement.

Her misconceptions were cleared, but thinking about her husband killing a man for her didn't sit well with her, but she knew she could do nothing about it. And what is her brother saying, he would free her from this marriage?? How will he do that?? And Is that what she wants?? Why is she still thinking so much to break this marriage even after her husband's cruel tortures??

"Stop thinking so much...", Ranveer said and she shook her head with a smile that didn't reach her eyes, Ranveer kissed her hair and patted her head, both of them talked for a while, and the royal designer is here for Ranveer's clothes, and after a lot of whining, Isha sighed deeply and went with the designer to finalize her brother's clothes as Ranveer refused to do it again.

Before going with the designer to the other chamber, Isha gave coffee to her husband and asked if he wanted anything more, he didn't respond which means he didn't want anything more, and then, she informed him about her whereabouts and went to help the designer...

After getting done with the work, Abhyansh made his way into Ranveer's chamber.
