Page 58 of The Royal Beast & His Caged Princess

"War is a huge thing Ranveer, and India is a democracy, and I am not the king of it. My actions don't represent the country's...", Abhyansh said fisting his palms to control his anger, as he doesn't wanna scare his wife with his beastly form...

"You may not be a king officially but you are by all other means, don't risk so many lives Mr. Ranawat... ", Ranveer said.

"I can handle the situation, join me if you want to... ", he said and started walking away...

Isha rubbed both her palms in nervousness, she is hell afraid to stop him, but at the same time worried for many people... She looked at her brother pleading with him to stop her husband, Ranveer shrugged and in return signalled her to stop him, her eyes widened, but she doesn't have any other option as well...

"Maharaj... " She called, and Abhyansh's steps halted... Though he didn't turn towards her, he waited there to hear what she has to say though he had an idea of it. His wife is the kindest human he ever encountered...

Isha ran to him and she was about to slip due to her saree but Ranveer who was near to her caught her at the right moment... Abhyansh turned and saw what happened, he instantly walked towards them to see if she is fine or not...

"Careful Ishu... Missing the bed so much that you want to get bedridden again??", Ranveer scolded his sister. Abhyansh didn't like his tone but didn't want to show his care for his wife openly...

"I am fine bhai...", she said giving a small smile to her brother and her eyes met her husband's who is looking at her intently, but his expression can't be depicted...

"Maharaj... I... Um... You... ", Isha fumbled but Abhyansh waited patiently for her to finish which shocked Ranveer... Abhyansh Singh Ranawat didn't get angry when someone fumbled?? Woah? What's happening...

"Will you ki... ", she started but couldn't complete it, she gulped with fear, what if he slams her for interfering with his work, but that's related to her... She thought...

"Yes, I will kill him", Abhyansh said understanding her question... Her eyes widened in shock, fear, pain, guilt, and a lot of emotions...

"No... Please... Don't ki.. kill him, I can't forgive myself, please", Isha said and a few tears voluntarily escaped her eyes and Ranveer quickly hugged his sister, wiping her tears... The tears threw daggers at the beast's heart...

"How do you want me to punish him then??", Abhyansh asked calmly, which is another shock for Ranveer, his sister and brother-in-law are conversing like two casual beings... Looks like it's a shock to his sister as well...

"Huh??", she looked with her hazel eyes which are damp now... Abhyansh didn't repeat himself but looked at her to know her answer...

"Maybe... Warn him??", she said innocently, a small smile threatening to appear on Abhyansh's face but he stopped it but his eyes gave away... Isha could clearly see the amusement in his emotionless eyes... What's so funny?? She is freaking out here and it's funny for him, she thought inward, but without her will, her expression turned angry and Abhyansh raised his brows looking intently at her, which made her realize her expression, she quickly lowered her head looking down...

"Ishu... Bacha... Punishment, you know the meaning of it right??", Ranveer attempted to tease her, but his words sounded terrible to his own ears, of course, his sister knows whatpunishment is, all her life she bore the punishment for others mistakes... Ranveer thought bitterly...

"Bhai... I know what it is, I am a postgraduate, stop making me feel like an illiterate", Isha whined and Ranveer smiled with welled-up eyes, his sister is so innocent, not for once did she think bitterly about her life, even though everything in her life is bitter... He is sure that even the thought of 'bearing those punishments' didn't cross her mind now, she is that pure...

"Do you think his (Arab Prince's) father has the right to choose the punishment??", Abhyansh asked smirking inwardly, like the hell is he going to leave that b**t**d after how he looked at his wife with lust, but that doesn't mean he would do something which his wife doesn't want him to, at least not after seeing those tears, so he is going to give in to her demands but in his own twisted way...

"Yes Maharaj, whatever his father suggests", Isha said with a small smile, and her smile as always gave peace to the beast's burning heart...

Isha thought the prince's father would definitely not allow his son to get killed but she didn't know how shrewd her husband is, Ranveer did, and he sighed at his sister's innocence...

"Okay...", Abhyansh said and was about to leave when Isha stopped him again... She didn't want the diplomatic relations to spoil as well...

"Maharaj... I don't want the ties between the two countries to turn bitter as it affects the people", Isha said gathering her courage, she didn't know why she said it but there is this strange kind of feeling that says he would listen to her... He noddedat her and started walking away but he stopped hearing his brother-in-law's words...

"Ishu... Are you eating badam (Almonds) every morning??", Ranveer asked, Isha looked at her brother confused but answered anyways...

"Yes bhai...", Isha answered

"You should... Otherwise, surviving with this brain is impossible", Ranveer teased his sister who glared at him in return...

"Don't tease me, I am a smart girl, ma makes sure I eat 7 almonds daily so that I get smarter", Isha said...

"Well, to deal with a man like your husband, your brain needs 700 almonds a day, not 7", Ranveer said...

"Rajput...", Abhyansh warned and called him to join him and Ranveer sighed...

"Coming... ", Ranveer shouted back...

"Bhai... Help that prince reach his place safely... ", Isha said as if her husband is letting him go alive, Ranveer sighed deeply at his sister's belief, did she really think that her husband would do what she wants or let that prince alive??
