Page 155 of The Royal Beast & His Rising Queen

"I know I hurt you a lot, but at that time, I was hurt too, I didn't want to hurt you more with my pain, I had to deal with myself first, so left to office with bhai", she said

"You could come to me anytime Rani sa... your presence is enough to calm me down...", he said

"But not when my presence is the one that caused you distress Rana sa", Isha said guiltily...

"No, it didn't, not your presence, the thought of you in pain caused me distress...", he said adjusting her in such a way that he was facing her... he pecked her lips... "I want you to do something for me...", he asked and she looked at him expectantly... "first promise me, I will tell you", he asked and she did it without thinking anything, she trusted him...

"I promise... what is it ?? You know I could do anything for you", she said

"Then become a brave and bold queen for me, not just the strong and kind queen you are now", he asked surprising her... he wouldn't have asked her this ever, he wanted to be her shield and protect her from everything throughout her life. He wanted to shoulder all the responsibilities, burdens, and worries while she gets to enjoy a blissful married life with him without worrying about anything, but when she fought with him for their family's rights and their freedom, he had no choice but to give her the responsibilities, even now, he will be taking the burdens and worries that comes with it but responsibilities she had to shoulder, and that will not be easy. She needs to change her personality a lot.

"What ??", she stuttered... she knew what he was asking for but she didn't think she could ever change her personality.

"I asked Rajmata to teach you everything, train you to be the best version of yourself", he said remembering the morningconversation he had with his grandmother, after he stormed to his study, he summoned his grandmother there.

------------------------------------------------

"I want you to train her, teach her all the responsibilities that come with it, and the challenges that she could probably come across in this", he told his grandmother

"You want me to train her ?? Despite my negligence to perform my duties well ??", Rajmata asked, she knew her grandson still blamed her for what happened in the past, if she hadn't allowed Amruta, all that would have never happened.

"I couldn't find a better person than you for this, the mistakes you committed will be the biggest lessons to anyone, but I trust Isha, after knowing what you did and their consequences, she would never repeat it", Abhyansh said

"If you want me to, then I will but before that, I want you to answer my questions", Devyani Devi asked bringing the courage within herself, when she didn't hear any warning or threat from her grandson, she continued... "you are not completely handing over things to Isha, right ??", she asked and he shook his head... he didn't want his wife to be burdened the responsibilities when he was still alive to take care of all of it, she could learn at her own pace...

"For now, no...", he answered not disclosing his further plans and she didn't ask either.

"Do you think I handled my responsibilities well, except for that once ??", Devyani Devi asked fisting her palm, she knew talkingabout it is forbidden but she dared to do it as Abhyansh himself raised about the mistakes she had done.

"Why else do you think I want you to train her Rajmata ??", Abhyansh asked, he didn't tell her openly but she got his answer, she gave a small yet genuine smile to her grandson before walking away. He did think that she was great at handling her responsibilities. His grandfather trusted her a lot, and so did he. He knew Rajmata Devyani Devi was extremely powerful and equally sharp. All think she wouldn't look at him in the eye because of fear like everyone else but only he knew that it was more because of the shame than fear.

------------------------------------------------

"Do you really think I could do it ?? Especially when I'm so reluctant regarding this system ??", she asked bringing him out of his reverie...

"First of all, remove the negativity you have against the system that's followed, and our family would be much more comfortable in asking you for things rather than me, because you make them feel at home, instead of making them feel like you have the upper hand, you will make them feel like you are taking responsibility for them which will make them love you even more", he said and she looked at him with hope, if that's the case, she didn't have any problem in taking the responsibility. "and I trust my Isha... she could do anything for her family, especially for her Ansh...", he said and she smiled with tears in her eyes... she knew he would never lie, and seeing his trust in her, she too trusted herself... she hid her face in his neck, to hide the shy smile that appeared on her face hearing his praises and that made him chuckle.

"Don't laugh at my expense", she slapped his chest making him laugh more...

"You are so cute my bacha, I couldn't stop laughing", he said looking at her pink cheeks... as much as she loved his laughter, she hated it at the moment.

"You scared me a lot in the morning... sleep in the other room for the next whole week", she said, his laugh stopped abruptly...

"See, it's not so hard to stop laughing, was it ??", she said teasing him, his eyes widened in the realization that his little wife tricked him...

"Not done Rani sa... not at all done... now you will have to face your beast husband, go home early today and sleep as much as you want, because tonight, I won't let you" he said biting her lower lip, before caressing it with his tongue, shock waves passed through her spine with his words and actions...

"Sorry, I was just teasing you", she said, her husband is really a beast in bed, she never thought she would call him that considering her hatred for that word whenever someone calls him that, but it is what it is, he is a beast, insatiable and it would be a lie if she said she didn't love it.

"Well, you should have thought it before teasing me, and also, for yesterday's thing", he said and she frowned in confusion... "what did you shop with your brother's black card", he said with so much jealousy that he would have burnt the card if it was in front of him... he so wanted to get his brother-in-law's card blocked but the fear of his wife stopped him from doing so.

She laughed looking at the expressions on his face, he frowned in offense, she pecked his nose and cheeks to calm him...

"Bhai insisted I buy something for myself for my birthday, so, I agreed", she said

"Your birthday is coming ?? When is it and when are you gonna tell me ??", he asked angrily, instead of calming down after her explanation like she expected him to be, she sighed at her unpredictable husband.

"Tomorrow", she said, knowing she would get to hear more now... he glared at her furiously, and she understood his feelings... she kept kissing his face to calm him down which helped a bit... "calm down my lion...", she said rubbing his perfectly trimmed beard, he raised his brows in amusement at her endearment... "I wanted to tell you but these days, I didn't get that kind of situation considering the cold war that's going on between us", she said
