PRIYANKA'S POV
I looked prince osman in the eyes and reality dawned upon me that now I was nothing but a mere slave , and I just like everyone else in this path have accepted my Destiny
A wave of fire ignited in my veins but it was not the fire of rebellion but acceptance . If I wanted to defeat destiny I realized that it's her game that I would have to play so I just nodded my head at his fake promises and wore my veil just below my eyes
I knew that the duty to start the dance was Elizabeth's and that I would have to face an angry sultan after this but I decided to worry about that later . I looked at the men waiting anxiously for the dance to start and in the crowd I saw suleyman I nodded my head at him in greeting
And then my eyes connected with sadika and I knew that she recognized the fire in my eyes she moved from her seat and was coming my way that I decided to act I spare one glance at prince Osman and made my way to the clear field
As I stood there all music and chatter stopped only the chirping of bugs was heard I turned towards the man who was playing music before "continue" I said and turned to face the audience
I will play fates game but I will not be a pawn there instead I will be leading it I looked prince Wahab in eyes and begin dancing it was bitter sweet
My feet move on their own as I turn and turned in circles my waist and hips were also out of my control they kept on moving and soon I felt in rythem with my own body
I kept on dancing as waves of emotion passed through my body . I danced till my feet ached . I danced till the grass below had a wet patch from my sweat I danced till I was standing infront of destiny. I danced in her face
And then I stopped . I stopped because I knew I won I looked at prince wahab in eyes and smirked I sat down on the same wet patch of grass , sprawled my legs and stretched my arms backwards
I breathed heavily and looked at prince Osman and smiled , a genuine smile and then I looked at sadika and smiled at her too but it was not the same as the one I gave prince osman. It was the smile of triumph of pride
But then my eyes connected with sultan . I should have cower but instead I just started.....without any emotions . I looked in his eyes and did nothing else because Frankly I was too tired too do anything else
The sultan suddenly stood up in fury and marched towards me . He came and stood right infront of me staring for a good one minute before he crouched down before me everyone gasped but the sultan paid them no heed
Instead he gave me a book and nodded curtly and left I looked at the book , the cover was made of silver I ran my hand through it and decided that I will open it back in the palace
I stood up and made my way to stand right infront of the elder prince I bowed before him "was that satisfactory my prince?" I asked in a sweet voice his eyes traveled from my face to my neck to my sweat covered breast and stomach
When he looked back in my eyes his eyes were dark and sinister he nodded his head so I turned on my heels and went back to sit in the carriage but I was stopped midway by prince osman
"Nafasam Priyanka ghorbunet beram. You stole my heart my jânem" I didn't understood the Persian words but I knew they meant something good
"What does nafasam mean?" I asked him "it means my breath because that's what you are jânem now come with me" he lead me towards a horse
"I don't know how to sit on a horse" I told him realizing his intentions " and I am scared of them" I told him truthfully he tried to convince me but after realizing that I am not going to cave he decided to use a carriage instead
He told me that sultan was not a strict man and that's why he didn't punished me . When I showed him the book sultan gave me he didn't recognized it so I decided to read the book in the morning to find out why sultan gave it to me . Soon we arrived in the palace I gave the book to Amina to put it in my bed

We both went to prince osman's room where he asked someone to bring a dessert because I was craving something sweet he then asked me sit on his bed and get comfortable
"But I can't get comfortable in these clothes" I told him and to my surprise he bought his shirt and asked me to wear it and after seeing that the shirt was so light and soft I decided to wear that ,I asked him to give me some privacy to wear it so he went to the terrace
After I took off my clothes I found that the shirt was very weird I couldn't figure out how to wear so I decided to use my brain and figure it out after a minute I finally tied it on breast and I tilted the open side of the shirt over my waist for modesty and once I was satisfied I decided to lay down on the bed
Soon the door knocked and before I could get up prince osman opened the door he took a tray from whoever was knocking and shut the door he placed the tray on the bed and looked at me weirdly
"Jânem Don't you know how to wear a shirt" he asked me I shook my head and looked up at him "I am sorry prince" I apologized "it's okay Priyanka and say my name don't call me prince when we are alone" I nodded my head
He sat the tray on the bed and it had a weird looking dish in it he then joined me on the bed "try it" he asked me
I looked at him and then at the tray since I came here all I had was oatmeal and I really wanted something sweet for a change .It was looking appetizing and so nervously I took one square piece from the tray .
After the encouraging nod from prince I finally took a bite and moaned as I tasted rice and nuts and strong flavor of rose I finished the piece instantly and also licked my lips clean I looked at the prince and then back at the dessert and grabbed another piece "it's sholezard our special Persian dessert"he told me
After 2 more pieces prince took the tray outside and returned with a glass of water but I wanted more of those tasty sweets I tried to plead "please Osman let me have some more" but he told me that eating sweets and night can cause pain in my stomach
But I wanted more he sat down infront of me and completely ignored my request with a smile on his face . I saw my hand had some syrup on them and I immediately licked them and savoured the sweet flavor
But halfway through he grabbed my wrist "don't" he warned me but I shook my head and decided to lick the remaining liquid off but before I could he grab my hand again but this time he took my fingers and licked them clean . I felt his tongue over my fingers as he looked in my eyes
"I told you enough sweet for today now happy?" He asked me I pulled my hand from his hold and decided to ignore him I layed on the bed and blew the candles off before I drifted in sleep I heard him said "it was delicious" and then he pulled me in chest engulfing me in a hug , and I soon fell asleep
